本研究旨在确定儿童超重/肥胖与尿路感染之间的关系。对135名UTI儿童（病例组）和135名健康儿童（对照组）进行超重和肥胖情况比较。尿路感染是通过尿培养诊断的。二巯基丁二酸肾扫描（DMSA）也用于区分下尿路感染和急性肾盂肾炎。超重和肥胖是根据标准体重指数（BMI）曲线确定的。病例组中超重儿童12名（8.8%），肥胖儿童26名（19.2%）。对照组中有四名（3.0%）超重儿童和五名（3.7%）肥胖儿童。两组之间的超重和肥胖频率存在显着差异。然而，膀胱炎儿童和急性肾盂肾炎儿童之间不存在这种差异。这项研究表明超重/肥胖与尿路感染之间存在显着关系。因此，超重和肥胖可能在儿童尿路感染的发病机制中发挥作用。
This study was conducted to determine the relationship between overweight/obesity and UTI in children. A comparison was made, in terms of overweight and obesity, between 135 children with UTI (case group) and 135 healthy children (control group). UTI was diagnosed through urine culture. Dimercaptosuccinic acid renal scanning (DMSA) was also used to distinguish between lower UTI and acute pyelonephritis. Overweight and obesity were determined based on standard body mass index (BMI) curves. There were 12 (8.8%) overweight and 26 (19.2%) obese children in the case group. Four (3.0%) overweight and five (3.7%) obese children were found in the control group. There was a significant difference between the two groups regarding overweight and obesity frequencies. However, no such difference existed between children with cystitis and acute pyelonephritis. This study showed a significant relationship between overweight/obesity and UTI. Therefore, overweight and obesity may play a role in the pathogenesis of UTI in children.
