OBJECTIVE
To present standardized percentile curves of body mass index (BMI) for Iranian children, and compare these to the US population reference.
SUBJECTS
1599 boys and 1702 girls aged 2-18 y living in urban Tehran as a part of a random cluster sample survey of 1 in 1000 families throughout Iran.
MEASUREMENTS
Heights (cm) and weights (kg) were collected by trained health staff.
RESULTS
Standardized BMI reference curves for Iranian boys and girls were constructed. The curves are shown to fit the data well. The development pattern of BMI for boys and girls are compared.
CONCLUSIONS
The major differences observed between Iranian and the US BMI charts underline the need for population-specific reference data. For children over six years the 5th and 95th percentiles of our data may be used provisionally as cut-off points for defining thinness and obesity for Iranian children and adolescents.
目的
呈现伊朗儿童体重指数（BMI）的标准化百分位数曲线，并与美国人群参考标准进行比较。
对象
作为对伊朗全国每1000个家庭进行的随机整群抽样调查的一部分，选取了居住在德黑兰市区的1599名2至18岁男孩和1702名女孩。
测量
由经过培训的卫生工作人员测量身高（厘米）和体重（千克）。
结果
构建了伊朗男孩和女孩的标准化BMI参考曲线。结果表明这些曲线与数据拟合良好。比较了男孩和女孩BMI的发育模式。
结论
伊朗与美国BMI图表之间观察到的主要差异突显了针对特定人群的参考数据的必要性。对于6岁以上儿童，我们数据的第5和第95百分位数可暂时用作界定伊朗儿童和青少年消瘦与肥胖的切点。
