Chubby Babies at Risk for Staying That Way

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Fat babies may be happy babies, but infants who put
on pounds too quickly are more likely to be overweight as adults.
Newborns who have bulked up by 4 months of age are twice as likely to tip the
scales 20 years later when compared to babies who gain weight more slowly. It is too
early to tell if a chubby infancy represents the start of a growing problem. But given
the clear-cut advantages of preventing obesity rather than fighting it later, good habits
are best instilled early on. This could be a critical time in the development of obesity.
Gaining weight rapidly at such a young age is associated with permanent changes
that may make it harder to regulate appetite and energy balance. Stettlers team
followed several hundred African American children who were born in Philadelphia
around 1960. Obesity rates continue to soar for every age group and race, but the
risks of heart disease and other obesity-related problems are particularly hard felt by
minorities, especially African Americans.
Stettler took a fresh set of measurements and then compared them to what
the study participants weighed in the past. The now grown-up participants were
considered obese if they had a body mass index of 30 or greater, plus a substantial
amount of body fat. Body mass index is a measure of weight that takes height into
consideration. Infants who gained more than eight to 10 pounds in the first four
months of life doubled their chance for being obese by the time they turned 20 years
of age. In an editorial that accompanied the paper, Dr. Jack Yanovski argues that the
small study size makes it hard to draw firm conclusions. When Stettler's team
included stout 7 year olds in their analysis, for example, infant weight gain did not
appear to be a significant cause of adult obesity. But the results may ultimately help
us to identify children at unusual risk of adult obesity.
The participants in the study mostly grew up on baby formula, which has been
linked to faster weight gain compared with infants who are breast fed. If you breast
feed the child will stop when it's had enough, while a mother may overfeed with
formula. This may override the internal cue that causes individuals to overeat later in
life.

Traffic:
Clearing the roads
The streets of London are rocking or at least rolling again. Last week the
traffic-clogged metropolis began demanding a 5 ($8) congestion charge from all
daytime motorists entering the busiest areas of the city. The result: a drop of nearly
25 percent in traffic.
The decongestant scheme employs some 700 cameras. Any driver who enters the
zone a patch of around eight square miles between 7 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. has
until 10 p.m. that same day to pay the charge. (You can pay by telephone, over the
Internet or in certain shops. Season passes are also available.) The cameras check
the registration plate of every car against the payment records, and failure to cough
up the cash lands one an 80 fine. The extra revenue from the charge and fines,
estimated at up to 150 million a year, will go toward the improvement of public
transport.
The idea is catching on. In Britain alone, at least 30 other towns and cities are
contemplating the tactic. Similar setups are already in operation in Singapore and
Norway. But although all flowed smoothly last week, questions remain. Will the
decrease in traffic hurt local businesses? Will traffic jams start up outside the zone?
For now, all thats certain is that the 15,000-plus Londoners whove already been
fined will be the unhappiest new straphangers come Monday.
