调查日本儿童肥胖与社区社会经济和环境因素之间的关系。2008年儿童肥胖症的流行率来自学校健康调查的年度报告。以下12个因素是公开的：人均收入，完成大学或大学教育的人的比例，人口密度，每平方公里的道路总长度，食品和饮料商店，餐馆，大型零售商店，便利店，客运汽车，交通事故，刑事犯罪和事故死亡的相对人口数。完成大专或大学教育的比例与男孩和女孩的肥胖呈负相关。肥胖和其他检查的因素之间没有发现关联。在男孩和女孩中，教育水平与儿童肥胖之间呈负相关。需要进一步的研究整合儿童肥胖和邻里水平因素之间的关联。
To investigate the association between childhood obesity and neighborhood-level socio-economic and environmental factors in Japan. The prevalence of childhood obesity in 2008 was obtained from annual reports of the School Health Survey. The following 12 factors were publicly available: income per person, ratio of people completing up to college or university education, population density, total length of roads per square kilometer, number relative to the population of food and drink stores, restaurants, large-scale retail stores, convenience stores, passenger cars, traffic accidents, criminal offenses, and death by accidents. The ratio of people completing up to college or university education was inversely associated with obesity in boys and girls. No association was found between obesity and the other factors examined. An inverse association was shown between educational level and childhood obesity in both boys and girls. Further studies integrating associations between childhood obesity and neighborhood-level factors are needed.
