Nutritional Status of Indonesian Children From Urban Community: Comparison of Two International Growth Reference

Abstract
This investigative study was undertaken to assess nutritional status of children from an urban community using 2 reference growth cut-offs. This cross sectional survey involved 1202 children, aged 5-15 years, selected randomly from private and public elementary school in Depok, Indonesia. The estimation of the prevalence of thinness, overweight and obesity was based on age and sex-specific BMI cut-offs by 2007 WHO and IOTF references in only overweight and obesity.The body mass index (BMI) in boys was increasing with age from ages 6-9 years and then slightly decreased in age 10 years, while girls tend to escalate perpetually from age 6 to 10 years old and then decreasing subsequently. While WHO 2007 cut-offs defined WAZ which boys was increasing in boys from age 6 to 9 years old then start to decrease, unlike girls with decreasing from age 6 to 9 years old and start to increase afterwards, BAZ adhered the same patterns as WAZ, while BMI-for-age Z score (BAZ) randomly fluctuate. Obesity in boys and girls using both cut-offs start to rise in age 6 and in boys stops at 9 while in girls stops at age 8, in the year after in both sexes and cut-offs� begin to decrease. The prevalence of overweight and obesity based on WHO 2007 cut-offs� was higher than the prevalence of underweight and severely-underweight, respectively, which indicates double burden malnutrition. The prevalence of malnutrition both underweight and overweight were tended to change according to the children�s age. While the comparison between WHO 2007 and IOTF cut offs show that the latter cut-offs was lower in defining overweight and obesity in girls but higher in boys.
