El objetivo es evaluar el estado nutricional, la composición y proporción corporal con relación a las condiciones socio-ambientales de residencia de la población infanto- juvenil de las localidades de Verónica, Pipinas y La Viruta (partido de Punta Indio, provincia de Buenos Aires). Se realizó un estudio antropométrico transversal en 845 niños (47.5% varones y 52.5% mujeres) de 3 a 15 años. Se relevaron peso, talla, estatura sentado, perímetro br…
Secular changes in body size and body composition in schoolchildren from La Plata City (Argentina)
AIM: To analyze the secular changes in body size and composition of two cohorts of children from La Plata City, Argentina, with a 35-year follow-up. subjects and methods: Cohort 1 (C1) was measured in 1969-1970 and included 1772 children (889 boys, 883 girls), and Cohort 2 (C2), measured in 2004-2005, included 1059 children (542 boys, 517 girls). Both cohorts were obtained from matching geographical areas and comprised children from 4 to 12 years…
Growth of school children in different urban environments in Argentina
The cities studied are in different stages of nutritional transition. Puerto Madryn is undergoing growing industrialization and urbanization and thus exhibits characteristics typical of an 'obesogenic' environment. General Alvear, a less complex urban centre, where some cultural patterns related to an agrarian way of life appear to have been retained, is situated at a less advanced stage
Physical growth in schoolchildren from Argentina: Comparison with Argentinean and CDC/NCHs growth references
The aim of this study was to assess the physical growth of schoolchildren from Argentina by comparison with the CDC/NCHS and Argentinean growth references (AGR), to contribute to the discussion about the use of local or international references for the assessment of growth in developing countries. Weight and height were measured in 3,411 schoolchildren aged 5–14 years. Data were log‐transformed and compared with both references by paired samples …
Socioenvironmental conditions and nutritional status in urban and rural schoolchildren
We analyzed the nutritional status of urban and rural schoolchildren from Mendoza (Argentina), but avoided rural and urban categorization by generating subpopulations as a function of their socioenvironmental characteristics. We transformed weight and height data into z ‐scores using the CDC/NCHS growth charts; defined underweight, stunting, and wasting by z ‐scores of less than −2 SD; and calculated overweight and obesity, according to the cutof…
