To examine the prevalence of overweight and obesity among schoolchildren in our region and to compare the results with previous studies conducted in the same region in 2005 and 2009.
This study was conducted at seven primary and three high schools in the center of the province of Isparta, Turkey in 2014, randomly selected for two studies of obesity five and nine years previously. Students were weighed and measured, and BMI was calculated. The results were then compared with those from 2005 and 2009.
The study consisted of 7116 students, 3445 (48.4%) females, and with a mean age of 11.7±2.7 yr (range 5.8-18.9 yr). The prevalence of overweight was 13.6% and that of obesity 9.9%. When the data were compared with the 2005 and 2009 studies, a statistically significant increase was determined in the prevalence of overweight (X = 4.826, =0.0280 and X =19.012, <0.0001). The prevalence of obesity in the 2005 and 2009 studies was 11.6% and 12.5%, compared to 9.9% this study. The decrease observed in this study was statistically significant (X=8.720, =0.0031 and X=20.708, <0.0001). The total prevalence's of overweight and obesity combined were 23.8%, 23.5% and 23.5% for 2005, 2009 and 2014, respectively.
The prevalence of combined overweight and obesity was stable over the nine years, but there was significant increase in the prevalence of overweight. Population-based preventive strategies, therefore, need to be maintained and intensified.
调查我们地区学龄儿童超重和肥胖的患病率，并将结果与2005年和2009年在同一地区进行的先前研究进行比较。
2014年在土耳其伊斯帕尔塔省中部的7所小学和3所高中进行了这项研究，这些学校是在5年和9年前随机挑选用于两项肥胖研究的。对学生进行了称重和测量，并计算了体重指数。然后将结果与2005年和2009年的结果进行比较。
该研究包括7116名学生，其中3445名（48.4%）为女性，平均年龄为11.7±2.7岁（范围5.8 - 18.9岁）。超重患病率为13.6%，肥胖患病率为9.9%。当将数据与2005年和2009年的研究进行比较时，确定超重患病率有统计学意义的增加（X = 4.826，=0.0280；X =19.012，<0.0001）。2005年和2009年研究中的肥胖患病率分别为11.6%和12.5%，而本研究为9.9%。本研究中观察到的下降具有统计学意义（X=8.720，=0.0031；X=20.708，<0.0001）。2005年、2009年和2014年超重和肥胖合并的总患病率分别为23.8%、23.5%和23.5%。
在这九年中，超重和肥胖合并的患病率保持稳定，但超重患病率有显著增加。因此，需要维持并加强基于人群的预防策略。
