UNASSIGNED: Objectives. We aimed to assess if Caesarean section is a risk factor for @entity4084 in early- and late-childhood, and to assess the magnitude of the effect of @entity1 - versus family-related variables in these risk estimates. Methods. Longitudinal data from Peruvian @entity1 from the Young Lives Study was used. Outcomes assessed were overweight, @entity28 , @entity4084 (overweight plus @entity28 ), and @entity1144 (waist circumference) at the age 5 (first follow-up) and 7 (second follow-up) years. The exposure of interests was delivery by Caesarean section. Relative risks (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated using multivariable models adjusted for @entity1 -related (e.g., birth weight) and family-related (e.g., maternal nutritional status) variables. Results. At baseline, mean age was 11.7 (   3.5) months and 50.1% were @entity1 . @entity1 born by Caesarean section were 15.6%. The 10.5% of the @entity1 were overweight and 2.4% were @entity28 . For the @entity28 outcome, data from 6,038 and 9,625 @entity1 -years was included from baseline to the first and second follow-up, respectively. Compared to those who did not experience Caesarean delivery, the risk of having @entity28 was higher in the group born by Caesarean: RRs were higher at early-childhood (first follow-up: 2.25; 95% CI [1.36-3.74]) than later in life (second follow-up: 1.57; 95% CI [1.02-2.41]). Family-related variables had a greater effect in attenuating the risk estimates for @entity28 at the first, than at the second follow-up. Conclusion. Our results suggest a higher probability of developing @entity28 , but not overweight, among @entity1 born by Caesarean section delivery. The magnitude of risk estimates decreased over time, and family-related variables had a stronger effect on the risk estimates at early-childhood.
