dc.description.abstract	Annotation: The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of obesity among the children and adolescents in the Republic of Uzbekistan and analyze the associated health conditions and factors contributing to obesity. The study analyzed data from 2012 to 2014, including registered cases of obesity among children. The prevalence of obesity in different regions of Uzbekistan was examined. The results showed that among children and adolescents, 3,134 cases of obesity were registered during the same period, with high rates observed in Tashkent city, Tashkent, Khorezm, and Fergana regions. Analysis of medical examinations revealed that endocrine disorders, eating and metabolic disorders, blood disorders, gastrointestinal diseases, and neurological disorders were commonly associated with obesity. The study emphasizes the importance of regular monitoring and intervention by endocrinologists and pediatricians in addressing childhood obesity and its associated health risks.	en_US
