NCT ID NCT07437976

Summary

This study aims to understand why some children with obesity start puberty earlier than others. Researchers will follow 400 children, aged 5 to 7, for about seven years, tracking their health, genes, diet, and chemical exposures. The goal is to identify which factors—like genetics, hormones, or environment—best predict the timing of puberty.
