The association between body mass index (BMI) and adiposity differs by race/ethnicity.
To examine differences in adiposity by race/Hispanic origin among US youth and explore how those differences relate to differences in BMI using the most recent national data, including non-Hispanic Asian youth.
Weight, height and DXA-derived fat mass index (FMI) and percentage body fat (%BF) from 6923 youth 8-19 years in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2018 were examined. Age-adjusted mean BMI, FMI and %BF were reported. Sex-specific linear regression models predicting %BF and FMI were adjusted for age, BMI category and BMI category*race/Hispanic origin interaction.
%BF was highest among Hispanic males (28.2%) and females (35.7%). %BF was lower among non-Hispanic Black (23.9%) compared with non-Hispanic White (26.0%) and non-Hispanic Asian (26.6%) males. There was no difference between non-Hispanic Black females (32.7%) and non-Hispanic White (33.2%) or non-Hispanic Asian (32.7%) females. FMI was higher among Hispanic youth compared with non-Hispanic White youth. Among youth with underweight/healthy weight, predicted %BF and FMI were lower among non-Hispanic Black males (-2.8%; -0.5) and females (-2.0%; -0.3), compared with non-Hispanic White youth, and higher among Hispanic males (0.9%; 0.2) and females (2.0%; 0.5), while %BF but not FMI was higher among non-Hispanic Asian males (1.3%) and females (1.4%). Among females with obesity, non-Hispanic Asian females had lower %BF (-2.3%) and FMI (-1.7) than non-Hispanic White females.
Differences in %BF and FMI by race/Hispanic origin were not consistent by BMI category among US youth in 2011-2018.
体重指数(BMI)与肥胖的关系因种族/族裔而异。
利用最新的全国性数据,包括非西班牙裔亚裔青少年,研究美国青少年的种族/西班牙裔起源的肥胖差异,并探讨这些差异与 BMI 差异的关系。
对国家健康和营养检查调查(NHANES)2011-2018 年期间的 6923 名 8-19 岁青少年的体重、身高和 DXA 衍生的脂肪质量指数(FMI)和体脂肪百分比(%BF)进行了研究。报告了年龄调整后的平均 BMI、FMI 和 %BF。性别特异性线性回归模型预测 %BF 和 FMI,调整了年龄、BMI 类别和 BMI 类别*种族/西班牙裔起源相互作用。
西班牙裔男性(28.2%)和女性(35.7%)的 %BF 最高。与非西班牙裔白种人(26.0%)和非西班牙裔亚裔(26.6%)男性相比,非西班牙裔黑人(23.9%)男性的 %BF 较低。非西班牙裔黑人女性(32.7%)与非西班牙裔白种人(33.2%)或非西班牙裔亚裔(32.7%)女性之间没有差异。与非西班牙裔白人青少年相比,西班牙裔青少年的 FMI 更高。在体重不足/健康体重的青少年中,与非西班牙裔白人青少年相比,非西班牙裔黑人男性(-2.8%;-0.5)和女性(-2.0%;-0.3)的预测 %BF 和 FMI 较低,而西班牙裔男性(0.9%;0.2)和女性(2.0%;0.5)的预测 %BF 和 FMI 较高,而非西班牙裔亚裔男性(1.3%)和女性(1.4%)的 %BF 较高,但 FMI 则不然。在肥胖女性中,非西班牙裔亚裔女性的 %BF(-2.3%)和 FMI(-1.7%)低于非西班牙裔白人女性。
2011-2018 年,美国青少年的 BMI 类别不同,种族/西班牙裔起源的 %BF 和 FMI 差异不一致。
