To analyze the status of anemia among children under 3 years old from western China based on the data gathered from the project area.
9616 children under 3 years old and their families were investigated, using stratified random sampling method in 46 counties in western China. To measure the content of haemoglobin by cyanmethemoglobin and hemocue, under the diagnostic criterion as 110 g/L for child aged 6 months to 6 years old, proposed by WHO and UNICEF.
The overall prevalence of anemia among child under 3 years old in ten provinces was 33.8%. Prevalence of anemia varied along with age differences. The peak of anemia prevalence was 12-18 months. The related risk of anemia between mother and child was 3.271. Data from logistic regression showed that mother being anemic, cooking with iron pan, cooking for child separate from adults and gender had statistical significance to their children's anemia.
The feasible measures should be developed to reduce the prevalence of anemia.
基于项目地区收集的数据，分析中国西部3岁以下儿童的贫血状况。
在中国西部46个县采用分层随机抽样方法，对9616名3岁以下儿童及其家庭进行调查。采用氰化高铁血红蛋白法和血红蛋白分析仪测定血红蛋白含量，诊断标准依据世界卫生组织和联合国儿童基金会提出的6个月至6岁儿童血红蛋白低于110g/L。
十个省份3岁以下儿童贫血总体患病率为33.8%。贫血患病率随年龄差异而变化。贫血患病率高峰为12 - 18个月。母婴贫血相关风险为3.271。逻辑回归数据显示，母亲贫血、用铁锅做饭、与成人分开为孩子做饭以及性别对孩子贫血有统计学意义。
应制定可行措施以降低贫血患病率。
