ABSTRACT
Background: Prevalence of overweight and obesity in children under 5
years can be affected by type of anthropometric indicator and selected
threshold values. We assessed variation on estimates according to
national and international regulations (NOM-031-SSA2-1999, NOM-008-
SSA3-2010, GPC-SSA-025-08 and GPC-IMSS-029-08; WHO-2006,
CDC-2000 and IOTF, respectively).
Methods: Cross-sectional study in all the daycare centers (100 %) affiliated
to Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social-Nuevo León during June-
December, 2010 (
n = 11 141 children). Overweight and obesity were
defi ned on the basis of each regulation, and total and stratified prevalences
by age and sex were estimated.
Results: According to national regulation, overweight/obesity estimates
varied from 12 to 22 %, and to international normativity, from 3 to 14 %.
The highest prevalence was given by NOM-008-SSA3-2010 and GPCSSA-
025-08; and the lowest by WHO-2006. There were no differences
by sex, but they existed by age; the highest discrepancy occurred in the
3.0-3.9 age group with 28 %.
Conclusion: Health personnel and health policy makers should be
aware of variation on estimates according to the definition employed.
We recommend to standardize national regulation for pointing out overweight/
obesity in preschoolers.
