The objective of the study is to compare children at low risk for obesity (two healthy weight parents) to children at high risk for obesity (two overweight parents) in their response rate to food taste and in their rate of learning using fMRI.
The primary aim of this project is to conduct an adequately powered study that compares children at low risk for obesity to children at high risk for obesity on their brain responses to food tastes during a pavlovian learning task. Seven assessment visits will be conducted at three separate time points; baseline, 1-year follow up, and 2-year follow up. Assessments will include anthropometry, interviews, computer tasks, questionnaires, and an fMRI scan. This program of research tests a novel hypothesis regarding overeating and the development of obesity in children, and could provide critical data on individual vulnerabilities to overeating for further research. Furthermore, this study could provide mechanisms for intervention with regards to cue-reward learning in children, to ultimately prevent obesity in youth.

Compared within Obesity, this study's primary condition as ClinicalTrials.gg classifies it; the registry's first condition term is Overweight. The counts are of registry records indexed under each term, refreshed daily. How we classify →
Healthy-weight children (5-75thBMI%) between the ages of 8 and 11 years old with either two over-weight parents (BMI>25) or two healthy-weight parents (BMI = 18-24.9)

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.
A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

Reward Sensitivity
Whether the BOLD response to food cue differs between high and low-risk children
Time frame: Baseline only

Ran from Dec 2016 to primary completion in Dec 2023, 84 months.
Of 791 non-industry observational studies under Obesity, half reached primary completion within 40 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 17 and three quarters within 106. This study's 84 months is above that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 836 studies reached it within 39 months; a quarter within 17 and three quarters within 96.
