- Ten Putative Contributors to the Obesity Epidemic (2009, neutral): “Numerous studies, summarized in systematic reviews and meta-analyses ( Baird et al, 2005 ; Monteiro et al, 2005 ; Ong et al, 2006 ; Stettler, 2007 ), have shown that rapid weight gain during early infancy is associated with susceptibility to obesity in adulthood.”
- Complementary Feeding: A Position Paper by the European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) Committee on Nutrition (2017, background): “Macronutrient Intake Overconsumption of energy-dense CF may induce excessive weight gain in infancy, which has in turn been associated with a 2to 3-fold higher risk of obesity in school age and childhood (72,73).”

- Early‐life determinants of overweight and obesity: a review of systematic reviews (2010, background): “Another systematic review, by Monteiro and Victora, included 16 studies (51); 13 of these reported on early rapid growth and found significant associations with later overweight or adiposity (five of these studies were included also in the systematic review by Baird; no OR or RR reported).”
