肥胖儿童营养知识与非肥胖儿童营养知识的比较研究至今未见报道。因此，我们分析了101名非肥胖和173名肥胖儿童的营养知识8至15岁的基础上评价营养知识问卷。该问卷由22个问题组成，涉及食物的能量和脂肪含量，能量需求和甜味食物。在多元Logistic回归中，超重程度（p = 0.384）和性别（p = 0.284）与营养知识无显著相关性，而年龄（p = 0.027）和学校类型（p = 0.0001）与营养知识显著相关。肥胖儿童和非肥胖儿童的营养知识相似，表明儿童肥胖的发生不是由于缺乏营养知识。营养知识取决于年龄和学校教育类型。这些研究结果应考虑在预防和治疗儿童肥胖。(C)2003爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
Studies on obese children's nutritional knowledge compared to that of their non obese counterparts have not been carried out so far. Therefore, we analyze the nutritional knowledge of 101 non obese and 173 obese children aged 8 to 15 years based on an evaluated nutritional knowledge questionnaire. This questionnaire consists of 22 questions concerning energy and fat content of foods, energy requirements and sweetened food. In multiple logistic regression, degree of overweight (p = 0.384) and gender (p = 0.284) demonstrates no significant correlation to nutritional knowledge while increasing age (p = 0.027) and type of school (p = 0.0001) correlates significantly with nutritional knowledge. Similar nutritional knowledge of obese and non obese children points to genesis of obesity in childhood not caused by lack of knowledge. Nutritional knowledge depends on age and type of school education. These findings should be considered in the prevention and treatment of obesity in childhood. (C) 2003 Elsevier Inc.
