This paper presents recommendations for the analysis and presentation of height and weight data from surveillance or surveys involving nutrition and anthropometry in young children up to the age of 10 years. These recommendations are only for the analysis of data collected on a cross-sectional basis. The basic indices recommended are height for age and weight for height, each considered either in terms of centiles or in a cross-classification scheme using standard deviation scores. It is hoped that these methods of analysis and presentation will prove widely acceptable, so that international comparisons will be made easier.
本文针对10岁及以下幼儿营养与人体测量监测或调查中的身高和体重数据的分析与呈现提出了建议。这些建议仅适用于横断面收集数据的分析。推荐的基本指标是年龄别身高和身高别体重,可分别按百分位数或使用标准差分数的交叉分类方案来考量。希望这些分析和呈现方法能被广泛接受,从而使国际比较更加容易。
