An inadequate nutrient intake correlates with malnutrition, a problem affecting many adolescents worldwide. Nutrient intake is associated with quality of life (QoL). Our study analyzed the relationship between nutrient intake and adolescents' QoL. We conducted a cross-sectional study. Through simple random sampling, 157 adolescent girls were selected. Nutrition status was assessed using anthropometric measurements. Nutrient intake was collected using the food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). WHOQOL BREF was used to explore adolescent girls' quality of life. The median of nutrient intake: energy (908.25 kcal); protein (24.16 g); carbohydrate (128.89 g); fat (21.89 g); vitamin A (77.10 mg); vitamin E (1.40 mg); vitamin B1 (0.19 mg); vitamin B2 (0.29 mg); vitamin B6 (0.45 mg); folic acid (35.13 mg); vitamin C (12.60 mg); calcium (197.46 mg); magnesium (93.72 mg); iron (2.64 mg); and zinc (2.09 mg). The adolescents' QoL scores were physical health 44 (25-81), psychological domain 56 (19-94), social relationships 56 (19-94), and environmental domain 56 (31-100). The strongest correlations were between (1) physical health with carbohydrates, vitamin C, and fat; (2) psychological domain with calcium; (3) social relationships with carbohydrates and vitamin C; and (4) environmental domain with BMI and zinc. There was a significant positive correlation between the intake of some nutrients and adolescents' QoL, despite the observation of some significant negative correlations. The findings of this study indicate that more attention should be focused on adolescents' nutrient intake in order to improve their QoL.
营养摄入不足与营养不良相关,这是一个影响全球众多青少年的问题。营养摄入与生活质量(QoL)相关。我们的研究分析了营养摄入与青少年生活质量之间的关系。我们进行了一项横断面研究。通过简单随机抽样,选取了157名青春期女孩。使用人体测量学方法评估营养状况。使用食物频率问卷(FFQ)收集营养摄入情况。采用世界卫生组织生活质量简表(WHOQOL BREF)来探究青春期女孩的生活质量。营养摄入中位数:能量(908.25千卡);蛋白质(24.16克);碳水化合物(128.89克);脂肪(21.89克);维生素A(77.10毫克);维生素E(1.40毫克);维生素B1(0.19毫克);维生素B2(0.29毫克);维生素B6(0.45毫克);叶酸(35.13毫克);维生素C(12.60毫克);钙(197.46毫克);镁(93.72毫克);铁(2.64毫克);锌(2.09毫克)。青少年的生活质量得分在身体健康方面为44(25 - 81),心理领域为56(19 - 94),社会关系为56(19 - 94),环境领域为56(31 - 100)。最强的相关性存在于:(1)身体健康与碳水化合物、维生素C和脂肪之间;(2)心理领域与钙之间;(3)社会关系与碳水化合物和维生素C之间;(4)环境领域与BMI和锌之间。尽管观察到一些显著的负相关,但某些营养素的摄入与青少年的生活质量之间存在显著正相关。本研究结果表明,为了提高青少年的生活质量,应更加关注他们的营养摄入。
