简介：本研究的目的是确定体重指数增加是否与骨骼加速成熟相关。方法：采用 Fishman 手腕分析法测定 107 名 9 至 16 岁儿童的骨龄。根据体重指数、性别和年龄分析实际年龄和牙龄之间的差异。结果：正常体重、超重和肥胖受试者的实际年龄和骨龄之间的平均差异分别为 0.51 岁、0.44 岁和 1.00 岁。尽管与超重和正常体重受试者相比，肥胖受试者有加速骨骼成熟的趋势，但差异并不具有统计学意义。骨骼年龄差异随着年龄的增加而显着减小。 9至13岁儿童的平均骨骼年龄差异为0.90岁，13至16岁儿童的平均骨骼年龄差异为0.26岁。平均骨龄在性别上没有显着差异。结论：调整年龄和性别后，超重或肥胖儿童的骨骼成熟并未显着加速。
Introduction: The purpose of this study was to determine whether increased body mass index is associated with accelerated skeletal maturation. Methods: The skeletal ages of 107 children, aged 9 to 16 years, were determined by using Fishman's hand-wrist analysis. The difference between chronologic age and dental age was analyzed against body mass index, sex, and age. Results: The mean differences between chronologic and skeletal ages for normal weight, overweight, and obese subjects were 0.51 years, 0.44 years, and 1.00 years, respectively. Although there was a trend for obese subjects to have accelerated skeletal maturation compared with overweight and normal-weight subjects, the difference was not statistically significant. Skeletal age differences significantly decreased with increasing age. The mean skeletal age differences were 0.90 year for 9- to 13-year-olds and 0.26 year for 13- to 16-year-olds. Mean skeletal age did not differ significantly by sex. Conclusions: Overweight or obese children did not have significantly accelerated skeletal maturation after adjusting for age and sex.
