This study assessed changes in consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) among children (aged≤17 years) in Los Angeles County. We analyzed children's data from the 2007 (n=5,595) and 2011 (n=5,934) Los Angeles County Health Survey. The percentage of children who consumed 1 or more SSB per day decreased from 43.3% in 2007 to 38.3% in 2011 (P<.001); this decrease was seen across most sociodemographic subgroups. Despite measurable progress in reducing SSB consumption among children in Los Angeles County, consumption remains high, highlighting the need for additional policy and programmatic interventions.
本研究评估了洛杉矶县儿童(≤17 岁)中含糖饮料(SSB)消费的变化。我们分析了 2007 年(n=5595)和 2011 年(n=5934)洛杉矶县健康调查中儿童的数据。每天饮用 1 份或更多 SSB 的儿童比例从 2007 年的 43.3%下降到 2011 年的 38.3%(P<.001);这一下降在大多数社会人口统计学亚组中都有体现。尽管洛杉矶县儿童 SSB 消费有所减少,但仍处于较高水平,这突出表明需要采取更多的政策和项目干预措施。
