INTRODUCTION• Over 60% of adolescent or adult survivors of pediatric cancer experience at least one late effect in first decade following their diagnosis.
• Late effects include cardiovascular disease, second cancers, and alterations in growth and development.
• A possible late effect is the development of an abnormal body composition (e.g., being overweight or obese) that can potentially increase the risk of developing other chronic health conditions.

• ALL is the most common pediatric cancer in the U.S.
• About 3,000 children and adolescents are diagnosed in the U.S. with ALL every year.

• BMI =
• For adolescents, age-and sex-specific BMI percentile or BMI at final heights are used.
BODY MASS INDEX (BMI)
Adults Adolescents
Underweight ≤ 18.5 kg/m2 ≤ 5th percentile
Normal 18.5 – 25 kg/m2 5th – 85th percentile
Overweight 25 – 30 kg/m2 85th – 95th percentile
Obese ≥ 30 kg/m2 ≥ 95th percentile
EXISTING LITERATURE
• Existing systematic reviews suggest that during childhood, survivors of pediatric ALL have higher BMIs than normative populations.
• However, mixed evidence exists on the risk of overweight/obesity among adolescent and adult survivors of pediatric ALL.
• No meta-analyses on BMI among adolescent and adult survivors of pediatric ALL.
OBJECTIVES
• Conduct a meta-analysis of studies that investigate the BMI of adolescent and adult survivors of pediatric ALL.
• Systematically summarize literature.
• Quantify overall effect size and effect sizes for sex differences.
• Critical assessment of existing gaps in literature.
METHODS
Identified Studies (N=109)
• PRISMA Guidelines.
• Multiple search engines.
• Search phrases: e.g. ALL, body composition, BMI, overweight, adiposity etc.
• Time frame: 1994-2014.
Inclusion Criteria (N=11)
• ALL diagnosed at <21 years of age.
• Age at study ≥16 years.
• BMI at the end of the primary therapy phase.
• Comparison sample or population norms.
• Peer-reviewed. Coding & Analyses
• Coding into Excel by 2 investigators.
• Cross-checked by 2 other researchers.
• Reliability analysis in progress.
• Effect size analysis in Stata and R.

GAPS IN EXISTING LITERATURE• Identified only 11 quality studies, of which 6 were conducted in the U.S.
• Reporting standards not unique. • 9 studies report BMI proportions.• 7 studies report mean BMI.• 2 studies report BMI Z-score relative to reference values.
• Missing information on a host of important variables.• Cancer relapse.• Detailed treatment and BMI.• Family medical history.• Sample size of controls.
CONCLUSIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS• Overall effect size for survivors in the U.S.
• OR= 1.11; 95% CI= 1.04-1.19.
• Female survivors (OR=1.32; 95% CI=1.20-1.45 ) may be overweight/obese at greater numbers than male survivors (OR=0.93; 95% CI=0.85-1.03).
• Recommendations:• Long-term health management programs for adolescent and
adult survivors of pediatric ALL.
• More emphasis on addressing weight-related health behaviors for female survivors of pediatric ALL.
• Standardized reporting of results for robust meta-analyses.
LIMITATIONS
• BMI is an indirect measurement of body fat, and does not reflect changes in muscle mass or changes that occur with age in adulthood.
• With the limited number of available studies, characteristics of control population, treatment etc. are inconclusive.
