Recent estimates suggest that 35.3 % of adult Australians are overweight and a further 27.5 % are obese. The Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health (ALSWH) is a prospective study of women's health that commenced in Australia in 1996. The study recruited approximately 40,000 women in three birth cohorts, 1973-1978, 1946-1951 and 1921-1926, who have since been followed up approximately every three years using self-report surveys. Six surveys have been completed to date. This review aims to describe the changes in weight and weight status over time in the three ALSWH cohorts, and to review and summarise the published findings to date relating to the determinants and health consequences of weight gain, overweight and obesity. Future plans for the ALSWH include on-going surveys for all cohorts, with a seventh survey in 2013-2015, and establishment of a new cohort of women born in 1990-1995, which is currently being recruited.
最近的估计表明，35.3%的澳大利亚成年人超重，另有 27.5%的人肥胖。澳大利亚女性健康纵向研究（ALSWH）是一项针对女性健康的前瞻性研究，于 1996 年在澳大利亚开始。该研究招募了大约 40000 名来自三个出生队列的女性，分别是 1973-1978 年、1946-1951 年和 1921-1926 年，自那时以来，每隔大约三年使用自我报告调查对她们进行了随访。迄今为止，已经完成了六次调查。本综述旨在描述三个 ALSWH 队列中体重和体重状况随时间的变化，并回顾和总结迄今为止与体重增加、超重和肥胖的决定因素和健康后果相关的已发表研究结果。ALSWH 的未来计划包括对所有队列进行持续调查，第七次调查将于 2013-2015 年进行，并建立一个新的出生于 1990-1995 年的女性队列，目前正在招募中。
