目的：比较中位体重，身高和体重指数的学龄儿童与2000年疾病预防控制中心和2007年世界卫生组织的参考values.Settings：学童在萨加穆，尼日利亚。设计：横断面survey.Methods：2008年11月至12月，1690名学龄儿童年龄在6至16岁，从8所小学进行了调查，采用多阶段抽样方法。记录每个儿童的体重、身高和体重指数（BMI）。每个年龄和性别的中位数人体测量参数的Z-分数与LMS统计方法使用的L，M和S的CDC和WHO charts.Results提供的值确定：体重，身高和BMI Z-分数小于CDC和WHO图表上提供的参考值，但一般更接近WHO的标准相比，CDC的标准。在CDC和WHO图表上，女性的体重、身高和BMI中位数通常高于男性。体重不足和发育迟缓的患病率相对较低，而超重和肥胖的患病率相对较高，在6至10岁的儿童使用WHO参考CDC的参考values.Conclusions相比：WHO参考会诊断营养不良和过度诊断超重/肥胖的研究人群。
Objective: To compare the median weight, height and body mass index of school children with the 2000 CDC and 2007 WHO reference values.Settings: Schoolchildren in Sagamu, Nigeria.Design: Cross-sectional survey.Methods: Between November and December, 2008, 1690 school children aged 6 to 16 years from 8 primary schools were surveyed using multi-stage sampling methods. The weight, height and body mass index (BMI) were recorded for each child. The Z-scores of the median anthropometric parameters for each age and sex were determined with the LMS statistical method using the values of L, M and S provided on the CDC and WHO charts.Results: The weight, height and BMI Z-scores were less than the reference values provided on the CDC and WHO charts but were generally closer to the WHO standards compared to the CDC standards. The median weight, height and BMI for females generally plotted higher on CDC and WHO chart compared to the males. The prevalence of underweight and stunting were relatively lower while the prevalence of overweight and obesity was relatively higher among children aged 6 to 10 years using the WHO references compared to the CDC reference values.Conclusions: The WHO references would under-diagnose under-nutrition and over-diagnose overweight/obesity in the population studied.
