儿童肥胖症是拉丁美洲和美国的一项重大公共卫生挑战。解决儿童肥胖问题取决于有效、可靠和文化敏感的测量方法。可以通过更好地衡量不同年龄组、不同国家以及派遣和接受社区的情况，加强美洲国家内部和国家之间的这种进展。此外，更好和更具可比性的测量可以加速跨境合作和学习。在这里，我们提出（1）框架，影响我们的观点对儿童肥胖和测量需求在美洲;（2）有关测量和适应措施的儿童肥胖研究的资源和指导的摘要;和（3）三个主要领域，提出了挑战和机遇的测量进展有关的儿童肥胖，包括父母的行为，文化适应，以及将人种学方法纳入确定与经济和全球化有关的关键因素的潜力。通过进一步的跨国合作，旨在改善更好的监测、干预措施的制定和评估、实施研究和自然实验的评估，可以加快美洲减少儿童肥胖症的进展。此外，还需要改进与计量有关的培训，并改善以西班牙语和美洲通用的其他语言提供的有效和可靠的计量方法。
Childhood obesity is a major public health challenge across Latin America and the United States. Addressing childhood obesity depends on valid, reliable, and culturally sensitive measurements. Such progress within and between countries of the Americas could be enhanced through better measurement across different age groups, different countries, and in sending and receiving communities. Additionally, better and more comparable measurements could accelerate cross‐border collaboration and learning. Here, we present (1) frameworks that influenced our perspectives on childhood obesity and measurement needs across the Americas; (2) a summary of resources and guidance available concerning measurement and adaptation of measures for childhood obesity research; and (3) three major areas that present challenges and opportunities for measurement advances related to childhood obesity, including parental behavior, acculturation, and the potential to incorporate ethnographic methods to identify critical factors related to economics and globalization. Progress to reduce childhood obesity across the Americas could be accelerated by further transnational collaboration aimed at improving measurement for better surveillance, intervention development and evaluation, implementation research, and evaluation of natural experiments. Additionally, there is a need to improve training related to measurement and for improving access to valid and reliable measures in Spanish and other languages common in the Americas.
