Influence of ecoregional and lifestyle factors on growth and body composition of I ndian children and adolescents aged 9–18 years—A multicenter study
Objectives Ecoregion comprises all the environmental factors such as climate, vegetation, geomorphology, and soil taken together. The objectives of this study were to (1) assess differences in growth and body composition (BC) in 9–18‐year‐old children and adolescents (CA), across six ecoregions of India, (2) evaluate and compare the magnitude of the effect of ecoregional and lifestyle factors (LSF) on growth and BC in urban ( U ) and rural ( R ) …
Assessment of height growth in Indian children using growth centiles and growth curves
GAMLSS displays the distribution of height in the population by age and sex, while SITAR effectively and parsimoniously summarises the pattern of height growth in individual children. The two approaches provide distinct, useful information about child growth
Inter-regional differences in body proportions in Indian children and adolescents—a cross-sectional multicentric study
Background: Sitting height (SH) and leg length (LL) help in assessing disproportionate growth. Anthropometric dissimilarity has been observed in different ethnicities. Aim: To (1) study sitting height and body proportions in children from different regions of India; and (2) compare sitting height and body proportions with data from other countries. Subjects and methods: This was a cross-sectional multicentric observational study, where 7961 (4328…
Low knowledge of osteoporosis and its risk factors in urban Indian adults from Pune city, India
Objective To assess knowledge of osteoporosis and its risk factors and to explore associations between knowledge and various sociodemographic factors in Indian adults. Design Cross-sectional study. The Revised Osteoporosis Knowledge Test (OKT) was used to assess knowledge of osteoporosis. Four scores (OKT-total, range 0–32; OKT-exercise, range 0–20; OKT-nutrition, range 0–26; OKT-risk factors, range 0–14) were generated by giving 1 point to every…
Sitting height percentiles in 3–17-year-old Indian children
Background: Sitting height (StH) percentiles are not described for the Indian paediatric population. Aim: To generate multicentre StH percentile values for Indian children. Subjects and methods: A total of 7961 apparently healthy children (3-17 years old, Boys: 4328) randomly selected from 10 schools from six states of India were measured for height (ht), StH and weight during July 2016-October 2017. Results: The StH:Ht ratio was 0.52 (0.02) and …
Knowledge of nutrition and physical activity in apparently healthy Indian adults
Objective To assess knowledge of nutrition and physical activity; examine associations of knowledge with sociodemographic and anthropometric parameters; and evaluate the relationship between knowledge and practice in adults. Design In a cross-sectional design, 720 adults were selected using random sampling. Data on anthropometry, body fat, diet, physical activity, and nutrition and physical activity knowledge were collected using standardized que…
Invited commentary to the paper ‘Zinc status and its association with the health of adolescents
We are pleased to view the article based on Dr. Rama Kawade's thesis illustrating the importance of micronutrient adequacy, especially zinc, and associated health implications in Indian adolescent girls. This brief commentary addresses three major aspects in which Kawade's work has made a significant contribution; nutrition and health issues of adolescents, rising importance of zinc in terms of deficiency problems being addressed, and development…
