Hospital-Based Perinatal Practices and Duration of Exclusive Breastfeeding in Mexican Mothers
Background/Objectives: The initiation and maintenance of breastfeeding depend on internal and external factors that can either support or hinder its success. This study aimed to examine the association between hospital-based perinatal practices and the duration of exclusive breastfeeding among Mexican mothers of infants under one year of age. Methods: An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted in Guadalajara, Mexico, using a structured que…
Bilateral asymmetry in arm anthropometric measurements according to laterality and nutritional status in children and adolescents from 6 to 12 years old
Objective To compare and correlate anthropometric measurements of the left arm versus the right arm and to establish their relation to laterality, sex, and nutritional status in children and adolescents from 6 to 12 years of age. Methods A cross‐sectional study included 605 children and adolescents (285 males; 320 females), with a middle socioeconomic status, that attended an urban elementary school. Anthropometric measurements were taken in both…
Percentile Reference Values for the Neck Circumference of Mexican Children
Neck circumference was studied for the first time in a pediatric population in 2010. Since then, various countries have proposed cutoff values to identify overweight, obesity, and metabolic syndrome. However, no reference values have been established for the Mexican child population. The aim of this study is to provide percentile reference values for the neck circumference of Mexican schoolchildren. Only normal-weight schoolchildren aged 6-11 yea…
Neck circumference as an indicator of elevated central adiposity in children
Objective We aimed to study the correlation between neck circumference (NC) and anthropometric adiposity indicators, and to determine cut-off points of NC for both sexes to identify elevated central adiposity in schoolchildren in western Mexico. Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Rural settings in western México. Participants Children from a convenience sample of six schools in Acatlán, Jalisco, Mexico ( n 1802). Results NC showed a strong pos…
