Abstract

OBJECTIVES

To compare the association between waist circumference (WC), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), body mass index (BMI), and percentage of body fat (PBF) measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) method in children and adolescents of Vietnam.

METHODS

This cross-sectional study included 153 children and adolescents aged 6-18 y old in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Correlations between indicators were determined using Pearson correlation coefficient (r). Linear regression was carried out with PBF as dependent variable to test the further association of potential indicators.

RESULTS

The strongest correlation was found between PBF and WHtR in all pubertal stages (0.712; 0.556; 0.638 in male; 0.635; 0.799; 0.611 in female, respectively). The regression analysis indicated that WHtR was the most effective estimator of PBF ([Formula: see text] = 0.69, RMSE = 4.54 for male; [Formula: see text] = 0.50, RMSE = 4.34 for female) in the model including pubertal stage variable for each gender.

CONCLUSIONS

The results support the use of WHtR as an effective indicator for detecting adiposity in Vietnamese children and adolescents.

摘要

目的

比较越南儿童和青少年通过双能 X 射线吸收法（DXA）测量的腰围（WC）、腰臀比（WHR）、腰高比（WHtR）、体重指数（BMI）和体脂百分比（PBF）之间的关联。

方法

本横断面研究纳入了来自越南胡志明市 153 名 6-18 岁的儿童和青少年。使用皮尔逊相关系数（r）确定指标之间的相关性。以 PBF 为因变量进行线性回归，以检验潜在指标的进一步关联。

结果

在所有青春期阶段，PBF 与 WHtR 的相关性最强（男性分别为 0.712；0.556；0.638；女性分别为 0.635；0.799；0.611）。回归分析表明，WHtR 是最能有效估计 PBF 的指标（男性模型中包括各性别青春期变量时，[公式：见正文]为 0.69，RMSE=4.54；女性模型中[公式：见正文]为 0.50，RMSE=4.34）。
