Abstract

Objective To understand the prevalence of overweight and obesity among children in the eastern China,and to explore the advantages and disadvantages of data collection based on WeChat in order to give support for the future investigation and effective intervention. Methods Parents of children aged 0~5 years filled the data on the WeChat platform.A total of 19 793 children in eastern China were selected in this study,including 11 770 boys and 8 023 girls.Weight for height obese criteria recommended by WHO in 2007 was used as the diagnostic indexes of overweight and obesity.The incidence rates of overweight and obesity among children were compared with the data in nine cities of China in 2006. Results The incidence rates of overweight and obesity among children aged 0~5 years in eastern China were respectively 10.1% and 4.2%.The incidence rates of obesity among boys were higher than those among girls(χ²=14.965,P＜0.001).In 0~1-year-old group and 2~3-year-old group,the incidence rates of obesity among boys were higher than those among girls(χ²=9.528 and 14.066,all P＜0.001).The incidence rates of overweight and obesity among children in eastern China were higher than that in nine cities of China in 2006(P＜0.01). Conclusion The incidence rates of overweight and obesity among children aged 0~5 years in eastern China are high,and the utilization of mobile platforms for research is faster and more convenient.
