Inadequate dietary intake is not the cause of stunting amongst young children living in an informal settlement in Gauteng and rural Limpopo Province in South Africa
Objective To measure dietary intakes of young children aged 12–24 months and to determine the impact of poor diets on stunting. Design A quantitative food-frequency questionnaire was adapted, tested and standardised. Trained enumerators conducted in-depth interviews with the mothers/caregivers of the children. Forty stunted children in urban informal settlements and 30 stunted children in rural areas were selected and pair-matched with controls. …
The determinants of overweight and obesity among 10- to 15-year-old schoolchildren in the North West Province, South Africa – the THUSA Bana (Transition and Health during Urbanisation of South African…
Smaller households, inactivity and increasing age for girls were found to be determinants that influence the development of overweight/obesity, while female gender and age post-menarche were identified as determinants of higher body fat content. For overweight/obesity prevention, the focus should be on pre-menarcheal girls, aged 10-13 years, using these determinants to identify overweight/obesity risk. Preventive programmes should aim to increase…
A combination of statistical methods for the analysis of the relative validation data of the quantitative food frequency questionnaire used in the THUSA study
Objective: To apply structural equation modelling (SEM) and estimation of variance components to the relative validation data obtained from the quantitative food frequency questionnaire (QFFQ) used in the Transition, Health and Urbanisation in South Africa (THUSA) study. Design: A cross-sectional study. Setting: A community-based field study in an African population conducted during 1996. Subjects: Residents of the North West Province, South Afri…
A culture-sensitive quantitative food frequency questionnaire used in an African population
Objective: To determine the relative validity of the culture-sensitive quantitative food frequency questionnaire (QFFQ) developed for the Transition, Health and Urbanisation in South Africa (THUSA) study by 7-day weighed food records, urinary nitrogen excretion and basal metabolic rate (BMR). Design: A cross-sectional study. Setting: A community-based study in a population stratified according to level of urbanization. Subjects: Residents of the …
A culture-sensitive quantitative food frequency questionnaire used in an African population
Objective: To develop and assess the reproducibility of a quantitative food frequency questionnaire (QFFQ) sensitive to the culture of the African population of the North West Province, South Africa. Design: A cross-sectional study. Setting: A community-based field study in a population stratified according to level of urbanization from deep rural to urban upper class. Subjects: A total of 144 (99 women and 45 men) residents of the North West Pro…
