About this study

This study will develop a simple index to measure how well the body uses insulin and overall heart and metabolic health in children and teens with obesity. The investigators will use data from wearable devices (like fitness trackers) and glucose monitors, along with lab tests, to learn how activity and glucose relate to metabolic problems.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
