To estimate recent overweight and obesity prevalences in Mexican population under 20 years from Halfway National Health and Nutrition Survey (Ensanut MC 2016).
Ensanut MC 2016 is a probabilistic national survey which gives representative information from national, regional and rural/urban levels. BMIz was estimated through weight and height, then it was classified into overweight risk or overweight or obesity ac¬cording to WHO growth reference standards. Association between overweight and sociodemographic information was analyzed through logistic regression models.
Overweight-obesity prevalence was 5.1% in girls and 6.5% in boys<5y, 32.8% in girls and 33.7% in boys 5-11y, and 39.2% in female adolescents and 33.5% in male adolescents. Female adolescents from rural localities increased overweight-obesity prevalence from 27.7% in 2012 to 37.2% in 2016.
Overweight-obesity increased in girls and females, mainly from rural areas. Strategies focued in containing this phenomenon are encouraged to implement in this context.
根据全国卫生和营养调查中期报告（Ensanut MC 2016）估算20岁以下墨西哥人群近期的超重和肥胖患病率。
Ensanut MC 2016是一项概率性全国调查，提供了国家、区域以及农村/城市层面的代表性信息。通过体重和身高估算体质指数（BMIz），然后根据世界卫生组织生长参考标准将其分为超重风险、超重或肥胖。通过逻辑回归模型分析超重与社会人口统计学信息之间的关联。
5岁以下女童超重肥胖患病率为5.1%，男童为6.5%；5至11岁女童为32.8%，男童为33.7%；青少年女性为39.2%，青少年男性为33.5%。农村地区的青少年女性超重肥胖患病率从2012年的27.7%升至2016年的37.2%。
超重肥胖现象在女童和女性中有所增加，主要集中在农村地区。鼓励在此背景下实施旨在遏制这一现象的策略。
