Understanding early-life complementary feeding dietary patterns and their determining factors could lead to better ways of improving nutrition in early childhood. The purpose of this review was to evaluate evidence of the association between sociodemographic factors and dietary patterns (DPs) in children under 24 months.
Medline (PubMed), Cochrane Central, NICE guidelines, and Trip database were searched for observational studies that evaluated sociodemographic factors and their associations with DP.
Seven studies were selected for the present review. High education level among mothers was inversely associated with unhealthy DPs and positively associated with healthy DPs. Higher household income was negatively associated with unhealthy DPs. Four studies showed a positive association between low household income and unhealthy DPs and three studies showed a positive association between higher household income and healthy DPs. Additionally, in younger mothers, body mass index (BMI ≥ 30.0 kg/m) and number of children were positively associated with unhealthy DPs.
This review provides evidence of a positive association between mothers' higher education level, higher household income, higher maternal age, and healthy dietary patterns as well as a negative association between these factors and unhealthy dietary patterns. Further studies from low- and middle-income countries are needed for comparison with associations showed in this review.
了解生命早期补充喂养的饮食模式及其决定因素，可能会找到改善儿童早期营养的更好方法。本综述的目的是评估社会人口因素与 24 个月以下儿童饮食模式（DP）之间关联的证据。
检索了 Medline（PubMed）、Cochrane 中心、NICE 指南和 Trip 数据库中评估社会人口因素及其与 DP 相关性的观察性研究。
本综述共纳入 7 项研究。母亲的高教育水平与不健康 DP 呈负相关，与健康 DP 呈正相关。高家庭收入与不健康 DP 呈负相关。四项研究表明，低收入家庭与不健康 DP 呈正相关，三项研究表明，高收入家庭与健康 DP 呈正相关。此外，在较年轻的母亲中，BMI（≥30.0 kg/m²）和孩子数量与不健康 DP 呈正相关。
本综述提供了证据表明，母亲的较高教育水平、高家庭收入、较高的母亲年龄与健康饮食模式呈正相关，而这些因素与不健康饮食模式呈负相关。需要来自低收入和中等收入国家的进一步研究来与本综述中显示的关联进行比较。
