| Following the development of social economics and peopled living standard raised, the prevalence rate of obesity increases in the whole world. In the late of 1980s,nutritional status of teenagers changed. There was no epidemic tendency of obesity about in 1985; about in 1995, the rate of overweight was in the stage of increasing in a large range and the detectable rate of obesity was on the lowest cardinal number; about in 2000, obesity stepping into the stage of overall increasing , we can say the crowd ( boys) of the town of China has stepped into the early stage of quick epidemic of child and adolescent obesity in developed country , therefore, work of prevention and cure is imminent.Obesity of children as a disease has hazardous, the common complications are: psychological problem high blood pressure hyperinsulinism?hyperlipi-demia a lower secretion of growth hormone hypertrophy of heart venous thrombus benign fatty degeneration of liver (to develop fatty liver occasionally) and deficient quantity of lung ventilation, etc. The obesity of children can be easy to continue to be obesity of adult and increase the incidence rate of heart and cerebral vessels diseases tumor and diabetes, etc. Therefore, preventing o-besity should start in children period.ObjectiveTo understand the obese status of pupils in the city of Jin Zhou recently, we used the latest evaluated criterion of " the recommended notion of the value of BMI classification to the child and adolescent of China who is overweight and obese" announced by the academic meeting on the problem of obese child andadolescent of China in 2003 comparing with traditional criterion of " weight for height" in 2000 for the same time, understanding if there is difference in the detectable rate and complication of obesity, finding a good method suits for the basal service, to be a beneficial instruction to the children care service.Subjects and methods1. subjectsWe selected Liberation Road primary school in the city of Jin Zhou which all kinds of items were in the middle status. We investigated 1497 pupils ( boys750, girls747) who was 8-11 years old in September 2003 and excluded heart and kidney etc important organs diseases and factors of abnormal endocrine and the children had not the history of taking cortex hormone. We performed questionnaire investigation and physical examination on the detected obese pupils.2. methods2. Ithe evaluation criterion of obesityMethod one: weight for heightUsing the judged criterion of " weight for height formulated by investigation on physical ability and health of Chinese students " in 2000Method two: BMIAccording to " the recommended notion of the value of BMI classification to the child and adolescent of China who is overweight and obese" announced by the academic meeting on the problem of obese child and adolescent of China in 2003.2. 2 measuring methods and criterionTo decrease and preclude the errors caused by the personal factors, we demanded the scene testing personnel perform according to an uniformed and right method. All testing personnel were trained strictly before test. We corrected all eo ipments before using and measured the items of height , weight blood pressure cardiac function and blood sugar etc according to right methods.3. Statistical analysis: SPSS10.0 statistical softwareResults1. the obesity status of childrenWe detected eighty - one obese children judging by the method of weight for height during 1497 children 8 ~ 11 years old, the detectable rate of obesity was 5. 41%. There were fifty - seven obese boys, the detectable rate was 7. 60% ;There were twenty - four obese girls, the detectable rate was 3. 21%.

There were fifty - three obese boys, the detectable rate was 7. 07% ;There were twenty - two obese girls, the detectable rate was 2. 95%. The detectable effects of the two evaluated methods of obesity on judging the o... |
