To try out the feasibility of presenting the health status of children 6 to 12 years old by using radar plots.
With data from the Health Oriented Pedagogical Project (HOPP) we have described the health status for 1340 children aged 6 to 12 years. We collected or calculated: stature, body mass, waist circumference, waist to height ratio, high density lipoprotein (HDL) and total cholesterol concentration, blood pressure, accelerometer assessed physical activity, endurance interval running performance, and quality of life. Pertinent variables were presented through a radar plot for both individual cases and groups.
The boys showed better endurance and recorded more moderate to vigorous physical activity than the girls. The activity level dropped from age 6 to age 12 for both sexes. The girls showed a lower systolic blood pressure compared with boys. Self-rated quality of life was high among boys and girls.
This cohort showed good health and the radar plot made it easy to visualise health status for groups and individuals.
尝试通过雷达图呈现6至12岁儿童健康状况的可行性。
利用健康导向教育项目（HOPP）的数据，我们描述了1340名6至12岁儿童的健康状况。我们收集或计算了：身高、体重、腰围、腰高比、高密度脂蛋白（HDL）和总胆固醇浓度、血压、加速度计评估的身体活动、耐力间歇跑步表现和生活质量。通过雷达图展示个体病例和群体的相关变量。
男孩比女孩表现出更好的耐力，且记录的中度至剧烈身体活动更多。两性的活动水平从6岁到12岁都有所下降。与男孩相比，女孩的收缩压较低。男孩和女孩的自评生活质量都较高。
该队列显示出良好的健康状况，雷达图便于直观呈现群体和个体的健康状况。
