对北京地区犬肥胖症进行了流行病学调查。2008年4月至2011年4月期间，在14家动物医院收集了病例（n = 2391，7个区）。使用身体状况评分（1-5分）评估犬的肥胖（Burkholder和Toll，2000; Laflamme，1997）。肥胖率从品种、年龄、性别、绝育、食物控制、喂养频率、繁殖状况、食物类型、营养补充剂、生活环境、喂养时间、每户宠物数量、喂养目的、活动控制、运动持续时间、运动状况和运动类型等方面进行分析。本次调查犬的总体肥胖率为44.4%。狗肥胖的危险因素是食物类型（非商业食品，OR = 1.377，p < 0.05），年龄（1- 2岁，OR = 0.044，p < 0.001），活动对照（自由活动，OR = 0.685，p < 0.05）、去势（完整，OR = 0.629，p < 0.01）、性别（雄性，OR = 0.628，p < 0.001）、摄食频率（每天一次，OR = 0.521，p < 0.01）。按犬种划分，巴哥犬（70.7%）、可卡犬（69.4%）、北京犬（51.9%）、博美犬（54.6%）和金毛猎犬（51.9%）的肥胖患病率较高。这是国内首次报道犬肥胖症的流行病学。(C)2013爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
An epidemiological survey of canine obesity was carried out in Beijing, China. Cases (n = 2391, 7 districts) were collected at 14 animal hospitals between April 2008 and April 2011. The body condition score (scales of 1-5) was used to assess obesity of the dogs (Burkholder and Toll, 2000; Laflamme, 1997). Obesity rates were analyzed with respect to breed, age, sex, neutering, food control, feeding frequency, reproduction status, food type, nutritional supplements, living environment, feeding time, number of pets per household, feeding purpose, activity control, exercise duration, exercise status and exercise type. The overall canine obesity rate was 44.4% in this survey. The risk factors for dog obesity were food type (non-commercial food, OR = 1.377, p < 0.05), age (1-2y, OR = 0.044, p < 0.001), activity control (free activity, OR = 0.685, p < 0.05), neutering (intact, OR = 0.629, p < 0.01), sex (male, OR = 0.628, p < 0.001), feeding frequency (Once per day, OR = 0.521, p < 0.01). By dog breed, prevalence of obesity was high in pugs (70.7%), Cocker Spaniel (69.4%), Pekingese (51.9%), Pomeranian (54.6%) and Golden Retriever (51.9%). This is the first report of the epidemiology of canine obesity in China. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
