Abstract

Objective To investigate the prevalence of obesity among preschool children in Yijiang district of Wuhu city in 2015, to provide evidence for the prevention and intervention of obesity in children. Methods Using cluster sampling method, all 39 kindergartens in Yijiang district were selected. A total of 7502 cases were selected to carry out physical examination. We calculate the BMI and analyze the distribution characteristics of age and gender. Results The detection rate of obesity in preschool children aged 2~6 years old in Yijiang district was 6.93%. The obesity rate of boys was significantly higher than that of girls (χ²=15.875, P<0.001). The detection rate of mild obesity was 4.30%. There was statistically significant difference in moderate obesity among all age groups (χ²_{Linear-by-Linear Association}=7.021, P<0.05). The average BMI was 15.72 + 2.14 among all of the 7502 children. The average BMI of boys was higher than that of girls, and the difference was significant (t=7.374, P<0.001). Except for 2-year-old group, there were significant differences in BMI among other age groups (P< 0.05). Conclusion The prevalence rate of obesity among preschool children in Yijiang district of Wuhu was lower. In view of the characteristics of fat accumulation during the period of 3~6 years, we should establish the mechanism of obesity early intervention, and further control the risk of obesity in children and adolescents.
