本研究旨在阐明母亲上网问题与孩子体重之间的关系。我们分析了2016年4月至2017年3月期间在日本松江市进行的4个月、1.5岁和3岁幼儿健康检查收集的数据。研究对象包括1685名（866名男孩，819名女孩）4个月大的儿童，1728名（898名男孩，830名女孩）1.5岁的儿童，以及1672名（802名男孩，870名女孩）3岁的儿童。在调整了出生体重、营养形式、父母吸烟状况、母亲年龄、不吃早餐、吃零食、晚睡、户外活动和白天照顾者等协变量后，采用Logistic回归分析明确了母亲的PIU （Young’s Internet Addiction诊断问卷得分：≥4分）与孩子的体重指数（体重指数：<15）之间的关系。按性别和年龄分层后的分析显示，母亲的PIU仅在4个月或1.5岁的男孩中与孩子的瘦相关（优势比[or] = 3.16, 95%可信区间[CI] = 1.00-9.96; or = 2.68, 95% CI = 1.04-6.89）。母亲的PIU可能会促进3岁以下男孩的消瘦。由于3岁以下儿童的营养状况受到母亲喂养态度的影响，我们的研究结果表明，表现出PIU的母亲没有为孩子提供足够的照顾，特别是在喂养方面。相比之下，在女孩身上没有观察到母亲的PIU和孩子的瘦之间的联系。
This study aimed to clarify the association between mothers' problematic Internet use (PIU) and the thinness of their children. We analyzed data collected from health examinations of young children aged 4 months, 1.5 years, and 3 years of age performed in Matsue city, Japan, between April 2016 and March 2017. The subjects comprised 1,685 (866 boys, 819 girls) children aged 4 months, 1,728 (898 boys, 830 girls) aged 1.5 years, and 1,672 (802 boys, 870 girls) aged 3 years. Logistic regression analysis was used to clarify the association between mothers' PIU (Young's Diagnostic Questionnaire for Internet Addiction score: ≥4) and the thinness (body mass index: <15) of their children after adjusting for covariates such as birth weight, nutritional form, parental smoking status, maternal age, skipping breakfast, eating snacks, sleeping late, outdoor play, and daytime caregiver. Analysis after stratification by sex and age revealed that the mothers' PIU was significantly associated with their children's thinness only in boys aged 4 months or 1.5 years (odds ratio [OR] = 3.16, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.00–9.96 and OR = 2.68, 95% CI = 1.04–6.89, respectively). Mothers' PIU may promote thinness among boys aged <3 years. As the nutritional status of children aged <3 years is affected by maternal feeding attitudes, our findings suggested that mothers who exhibit PIU do not provide adequate care for their children, particularly regarding feeding. In contrast, no association between mothers' PIU and their children's thinness was observed in girls.
