We investigated whether oxidative stress and NO production\/metabolism are increased in overweight and obese prepubertal children and correlate with cardiometabolic risk and renal function. We performed a cross-sectional evaluation of 313 children aged 8\u20139 years. Anthropometrics, 24-h ambulatory blood pressure, pulse wave velocity (PWV), insulin resistance (homoeostasis model assessment index (HOMA-IR)), inflammatory\/metabolic biomarkers, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), plasma total antioxidant status (TAS), plasma and urinary isoprostanes (P-Isop, U-Isop), urinary hydrogen peroxide (U-H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>O<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>), and plasma and urinary nitrates and nitrites (P-NOx, U-NOx) were compared among normal weight, overweight and obese groups, according to WHO BMI <jats:italic>z<\/jats:italic>-score reference. U-Isop were increased in the obese group, whereas U-NOx were increased in both overweight and obese children. U-Isop were positively correlated with U-H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>O<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>, myeloperoxidase (MPO), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, HOMA-IR and TAG. TAS correlated negatively with U-Isop and MPO and positively with PWV. HOMA-IR and U-H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>O<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> were associated with higher U-Isop, independently of BMI and eGFR, and total cholesterol and U-H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>O<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> were associated with U-NOx, independently of BMI, eGFR values and P-NOx concentration. In overweight and obese children, eGFR decreased across P-NOx tertiles (median: 139\u00b73 (25th, 75th percentile 128\u00b70, 146\u00b75), 128\u00b70 (25th, 75th percentile 121\u00b75, 140\u00b74), 129\u00b75 (25th, 75th percentile 119\u00b74, 138\u00b73), <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>for linear trend<\/jats:sub>=0\u00b7003). We conclude that oxidant status and NO are increased in relation to fat accumulation and, even in young children, they translate into higher values of cardiometabolic risk markers and affect renal
