To update the prevalence of overweight and obesity in children and adolescents from 2015.
Data for this study were obtained from children and adolescents aged 7-17 years with measured weight and height from the National Surveys on Chinese Students' Constitution and Health in 2015.
Measurements from 29 418 children and adolescents (14 480 boys and 14 938 girls) were analysed. Among children and adolescents aged 7-17 years, the prevalence of obesity was 13.2% (95% CI = 12.8-13.7%) in 2015. Moreover, the prevalence of obesity for children aged 7-12 years (20.3% (95% CI = 19.5-21.1%)) was significantly higher than in adolescents aged 13-17 years (9.6% (95% CI = 9.2-10.0%)) (p < 0.001).
Obesity was much worse in children than adolescents in China; future studies are warranted to understand why these differences may be occurring.
更新2015年儿童和青少年超重与肥胖的患病率。
本研究的数据来自2015年全国学生体质与健康调研中7至17岁有体重和身高测量值的儿童和青少年。
分析了29418名儿童和青少年（14480名男孩和14938名女孩）的测量数据。2015年，7至17岁儿童和青少年的肥胖患病率为13.2%（95%置信区间=12.8 - 13.7%）。此外，7至12岁儿童的肥胖患病率（20.3%（95%置信区间=19.5 - 21.1%））显著高于13至17岁青少年（9.6%（95%置信区间=9.2 - 10.0%））（p < 0.001）。
在中国，儿童肥胖情况比青少年严重得多；未来有必要开展研究以了解为何会出现这些差异。
