Abstract | Cilj ovog rada bio je ispitati promjenu u statusu uhranjenosti školske djece na temelju podataka od rođenja te u 1. i 3. razredu osnovne škole. Također, uzeti su u obzir i drugi parametri i njihova povezanost sa stanjem uhranjenosti djece, kao što su obiteljski i nutritivni faktori. Prema nacionalnom kriteriju, udio djece s prekomjernom tjelesnom masom se od 1. do 3. razreda osnovne škole sa 10,6 % povećao na 14,4 %, a pretile sa 6,3 % na 12,9 %. Prema IOTF kriteriju, udio djece s prekomjernom tjelesnom masom je sa 12,6 % porastao na 20,9 %, odnosno pretile djece sa 8,7 % na 16,4 %. Usporedbom nacionalnog i IOTF kriterija utvrđene su razlike kod pothranjene djece. Prema nacionalnom kriteriju njihov udio se povećao (sa 2,9 % na 5,5 %), a prema IOTF kriteriju smanjio (sa 16,9 % na 11,9 %). Djeca niže obrazovanih roditelja imala su viši indeks tjelesne mase, dok nije utvrđena značajna korelacija sa brojem djece u obitelji i bračnim statusom roditelja. Pretila djeca imala su više obroka tijekom dana i nižu konzumaciju mesa tijekom tjedna u odnosu na drugu djecu. Također, utvrđena je značajna korelacija između ponderalnog indeksa, kardiometaboličkog rizika i indeksa tjelesne mase, odnosno potvrđena je povezanost porođajne mase sa statusom uhranjenosti djeteta u kasnijim fazama života. |
Abstract (english) | The aim of this study was to examine the change in nutritional status of school-aged children by using anthropometric indices from birth, the 1st and the 3rd grade of elementary school. Other parameters such as family and nutrition were also taken into consideration. Based on the national criteria, the share of overweight children increased from 10.6 % to 14.4 %, and obese from 6.3 % to 12.9 % between the 1st and the 3rd grade. According to IOTF criteria, the share of overweight children increased from 12.6 % to 20.9 %, and obese from 8.7 % to 16.4 %. By comparing national and IOTF criteria, difference was found in the share of underweight children, whose number increased according to national criteria (from 2.9 % to 5.5 %) and decreased according to IOTF criteria (from 16.9 % to 11.9 %). Children of parents with lower education were found to have a higher BMI, while no correlation was observed in regards to the number of children in the family nor with the parents' marital status. Obese children had more meals during a day and lower meat consumption during a week in comparison to other children. Also, significant correlation was found between Ponderal Index, Cardiometabolic Risk and Body Mass Index, indicating correlation between birth weight and child's state of nourishment later in life. |
