To investigate the prevalence and change of growth retardation, weight loss and malnutrition among children and adolescents aged 6-17 years in Guangdong Province in 2002-2012.
A total of 7264 children and adolescents(3804 boys and 3460 girls) aged 6-17 years were selected in thirteen monitoring points of Guangdong for nutritional survey in 2002, and a total of 2319 children and adolescents(1158 boys and 1161 girls) aged 6-17 years were selected in nine counties/districts of Guangdong for nutritional survey during 2009-2012 through multistage random cluster sampling. The body height and weight of all the children and adolescents were measured.
The prevalence of growth retardation, weight loss and malnutrition decreased from 10. 0% to 1. 6%, 18. 1% to 8. 0%, and 24. 7% to 9. 3%among children and adolescents in Guangdong from 2002 to 2009-2012. The result of2009-2012 survey indicated the average prevalence of growth retardation were higher in boys(1. 9%) than in girls(1. 1%), and the average prevalence of weight loss and malnutrition was higher in girls(10. 4% and 11. 3%) than in boys(6. 0% and 7. 7%). And the average prevalence of growth retardation, weight loss and malnutrition were all higher in those living in rural area(2. 5%, 12. 4% and 14. 5%) than in city area(0. 8%, 4. 4% and 5. 1%).
Compared with 2002, the prevalence of growth retardation, weight loss and malnutrition in children and adolescents aged 6-17 in Guangdong Province all decreased significantly. The prevalence was still high in girls and those living in rural, and children aged 6-17, thus more attention should be paid to them.
调查2002 - 2012年广东省6 - 17岁儿童青少年生长迟缓、体重减轻和营养不良的患病率及其变化情况。
2002年在广东省13个监测点采用多阶段随机整群抽样方法，共选取7264名6 - 17岁儿童青少年（男3804名，女3460名）进行营养状况调查；2009 - 2012年在广东省9个县/区共选取2319名6 - 17岁儿童青少年（男1158名，女1161名）进行营养状况调查。测量所有儿童青少年的身高和体重。
2002年至2009 - 2012年，广东省儿童青少年生长迟缓、体重减轻和营养不良的患病率分别从10.0%降至1.6%、18.1%降至8.0%、24.7%降至9.3%。2009 - 2012年调查结果显示，生长迟缓的平均患病率男性（1.9%）高于女性（1.1%），体重减轻和营养不良的平均患病率女性（10.4%和11.3%）高于男性（6.0%和7.7%）。生长迟缓、体重减轻和营养不良的平均患病率在农村地区（2.5%、12.4%和14.5%）均高于城市地区（0.8%、4.4%和5.1%）。
与2002年相比，广东省6 - 17岁儿童青少年生长迟缓、体重减轻和营养不良的患病率均显著下降。但女孩及农村地区6 - 17岁儿童的患病率仍较高，应给予更多关注。
