  • Influence of early life factors on body mass index trajectory during childhood

    Open AccessBárbara Hatzlhoffer Lourenço, Eduardo Villamor et al.ARTICLEMaternal and Child Nutrition2012

    Low- to middle-income countries may experience the occurrence of a dual burden of under and overnutrition. To better understand the overall progression of body mass index (BMI) during childhood, we estimated average BMI-for-age z-score (BAZ) growth curves in a population-based longitudinal study of 255 children living in the Brazilian Amazon. Children were aged 0.1-5.5 years at recruitment (2003). We collected data on socio-economic and maternal …
