在对亚洲儿童的饮食和营养状况进行全面研究期间,对169名年龄在4至40个月之间的健康儿童进行了详细的人体测量(巴基斯坦和孟加拉国血统)居住在谢菲尔德,这些测量被用来描述这些明显健康的儿童的生长概况,并将其与国际和英国的参考数据进行比较,大多数人体测量值的分布接近英国的参考数据,虽然男孩和女孩往往是轻微的建设,和女孩往往有相对较小的头围,然而,得出的结论是,他们的生长和营养状况在这个年龄范围内可以使用标准(英国)的生长图表进行评估。
Detailed anthropometric measurements were made on 169 healthy children aged between 4 and 40 months during a comprehensive study of the diet and nutritional status of Asian children (of Pakistani and Bangladeshi origin) living in Sheffield, These measurements were used to describe the growth profile of these apparently healthy children and to compare this with both international and UK reference data, The distribution of values for most anthropometric measurements was close to the UK reference data although both boys and girls tended to be slight of build, and girls tended to have relatively smaller head circumferences, Nevertheless, it was concluded that their growth and nutritional status over this age range can be evaluated using standard (UK) growth charts.
