Conditions

Metabolic Syndrome, Obesity

Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to identify salivary biomarkers for monitoring cardiometabolic risk in children. The study hypothesis is that a combination of salivary biomarkers will predict the presence of risk factors including impaired fasting glucose, hypertension and dyslipidemia and will reflect changes in these risk factors over time.
