目的：（1）描述国家心肺血液研究所生长与健康研究（NGHS）人群基线时的人体测量和体型测量结果，（2）通过比较NGHS基线数据与两次国家健康与营养检查调查的数据，检查年轻黑人和白色女孩肥胖患病率的潜在长期趋势（NHANES I和II）设计：队列基线数据的横断面分析。设置：在选定的学校招募（辛辛那提和伯克利）和健康协会（Westat）成员。患者：入组2379名9岁和10岁女孩，包括1213名黑人和1166名白色。测量：人体测量，包括身高、体重、三头肌和肩胛下皮肤褶皱。身体质量指数被用来衡量身体大小。9岁和10岁的黑人女孩比白色女孩更高、更重、皮肤褶皱更大。与20世纪70年代年龄相仿的女孩相比，本研究中的女孩更高，更重，皮肤褶皱更厚。在身体大小的差异是最显着的黑人girls.Conclusions：黑人女孩有一个更大的身体质量比白色女孩，甚至年轻的9和10岁。年轻女孩，特别是黑人女孩的肥胖率似乎在上升。这种进展，如果不改变，可能会导致成年妇女，特别是黑人妇女未来的疾病增加。（J PEDIATR 1994;124：675-80）
Objective:To (1) describe anthropometric and body-size measurements in the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Growth and Health Study (NGHS) population at baseline and (2) examine potential secular trends in the prevalence of obesity in young black and white girls by comparing NGHS baseline data with those of the two National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES I and II) (measured before the NGHS).Design:Cross-sectional analysis of cohort baseline data.Setting:Recruitment in selected schools (Cincinnati and Berkeley) and among the membership of a group health association (Westat).Patients:Enrolled 2379 girls, 9 and 10 years of age, including 1213 black and 1166 white.Measurements:Anthropometric measures, including height, weight, and triceps and subscapular skin folds. Body mass index was used as a measure of body size. Nine- and ten-year-old black girls were taller, heavier, and had larger skin folds than white girls. Compared with age-similar girls in the 1970s, girls in the present study are taller and heavier and have thicker skin folds. The differences in body size were most notable among black girls.Conclusions:Black girls have a greater body mass than white girls even as young as 9 and 10 years of age. The prevalence of obesity appears to be increasing among young girls, especially in black girls. This progression, if not altered, could lead to increased disease in the future for adult women, particularly black women. (J PEDIATR1994;124:675-80)
