The study provides information on the nutritional status of 8- to 10-year-old primary schoolchildren in urban areas of Jakarta and Bogor, Indonesia, based on anthropometric indicators. It compares the use of the anthropometric indicators weight-for-age Z score, height-for-age Z score, weight-for-height Z score, and body mass index (BMI) to assess thinness (underweight and wasted) and overweight in children. A total of 1,367 children were examined. The nutritional status of the 8- to 10-year urban schoolchildren was better than that of urban children under 5 years old. The prevalence of underweight among urban schoolchildren ranged from 7.4% (girls) to 12.95% (boys), while underweight among urban children under 5 years old in 1998 was 29.7%. Meanwhile, the prevalence of overweight (BMI > 85th percentile) ranged from 15.3% (girls) to 17.8% (boys). There were more overweight children in the private schools than in the public schools. On average, private schoolchildren, of all ages and both sexes, were heavier and taller than public schoolchildren. The BMI indicator for "thinness" and "wasting", using the NHANES reference, indicates a false positive result. For detecting overweight in children aged 8 to 10 years, BMI is comparable to the other indices, weight-for-age, height-for-age, and weight-for-height.
该研究基于人体测量指标，提供了印度尼西亚雅加达和茂物市区8至10岁小学生的营养状况信息。它比较了使用年龄别体重Z评分、年龄别身高Z评分、身高别体重Z评分和体重指数（BMI）来评估儿童消瘦（体重不足和消瘦）及超重情况。总共检查了1367名儿童。8至10岁城市学童的营养状况优于5岁以下城市儿童。城市学童中体重不足的患病率在7.4%（女孩）至12.95%（男孩）之间，而1998年5岁以下城市儿童体重不足的患病率为29.7%。同时，超重（BMI>第85百分位数）的患病率在15.3%（女孩）至17.8%（男孩）之间。私立学校超重儿童比公立学校更多。平均而言，所有年龄和性别的私立学校儿童比公立学校儿童更重、更高。使用美国国家健康与营养检查调查（NHANES）参考标准的BMI“消瘦”和“消瘦”指标显示出假阳性结果。对于检测8至10岁儿童的超重情况，BMI与其他指标（年龄别体重、年龄别身高和身高别体重）相当。
