This study assesses the evolution of underweight, stunting, overweight and obesity prevalence in schoolchildren from Azampay between 1995 and 2004. The sample includes children between 6 and 13 years of age (1995: 32; 2004: 42). The recorded variables were Age (A), Weight (W) and Height (H). Weight-for- age (W//A), Height-for-age (H//A) (WHO reference 2007, -2 SD) and body mass index (BMI) (The International Obesity Task Force, with the values set out therein), were estimated. Epi-Info 6.0 software was used for statistical evaluation (χ2 p ≤ 0.05%).We observed a drop in underweight to the present (from 11.54% to 3.45%). Likewise, stunting and overweight decreased (the former, from 6.25% to 0%, and the latter from 6.25% to 4.76%). Difference...
