  bibo_abstract:
  - <jats:p>The aim of the present study was to examine the association of pre-pubertal
    dietary energy density (ED) with both age and body fatness at the start of the
    pubertal growth spurt (age at take-off, ATO). Analyses included 219 DOrtmund Nutritional
    and Anthropometric Longitudinally Designed Study participants with sufficient
    height measurements to estimate ATO who provided 3 d weighed dietary records at
    baseline, i.e. 2 and 3 years before ATO (mean age 6·9 (<jats:sc>sd</jats:sc> 1·2)
    years). Mean energy intakes and amounts of foods/drinks consumed at baseline were
    derived from the records. ED (kJ/g) was calculated based on (1) all foods and
    drinks (ED_all), (2) foods and energy-containing drinks (ED_energy), (3) foods
    and milk as a drink, but no other beverages (ED_milk) and (4) foods only, solid
    or liquid (ED_food). Using multiple regression analyses, the association between
    the ED variables and ATO was investigated. Furthermore, <jats:italic>Z</jats:italic>-scores
    of BMI and fat mass index (FMI) at ATO were considered as outcomes to reflect
    body fatness at puberty onset. The results showed that ED at baseline was not
    associated with ATO, regardless of the ED method used. For example, mean ATO in
    the lowest <jats:italic>v.</jats:italic> highest tertile of ED_food was 9·3 (95 %
    CI 9·0, 9·5) <jats:italic>v.</jats:italic> 9·4 (95 % CI 9·1, 9·7) years, <jats:italic>P</jats:italic><jats:sub>trend</jats:sub> = 0·8
    (adjusted for sex, maternal age, birth weight, dietary protein, dietary fibre,
    baseline BMI <jats:italic>Z</jats:italic>-score). Similarly, ED was not independently
    associated with BMI or FMI <jats:italic>Z</jats:italic>-score at ATO (<jats:italic>P</jats:italic><jats:sub>trend</jats:sub> = 0·3–0·9).
    In conclusion, dietary ED in childhood did not influence timing or body fatness
    at ATO in this cohort of healthy, free-living children.</jats:p>@eng
