Trends in weights, heights, BMI and comparison of their differences in urban and rural areas for Iranian children and adolescents 2–18‐year‐old between 1990–1991 and 1999

Abstract

Although generally positive weight and height trend was observed among urban and rural residents, the magnitude of their differences was not changed.

Secular trends in body height and body mass in 19‐year‐old polish men based on six national surveys from 1965 to 2010

“…Similar secular trends in body height, weight, and BMI have been observed all over the world (Castilho and Lahr, 2001;Hosseini et al, 2010;Jordan et al, 2012;Monterio et al, 1994;Shin et al, 2012;Simsek et al, 2005). There were also positive trends in growth indices in the USA (Komlos and Lauderdale, 2007;Malina, 2004), Australia (Loesch et al, 2000), and Japan (Kagawa et al, 2011).…”

Secular Changes in Height, Body Weight, Body Mass Index and Pubertal Development in Male Children and Adolescents in Krakow, Poland

“…For instance, in the case of the Chinese population the increase in body height was extremely big and no signs of its weakening have been observed up to now, which may suggest that it will be maintained in the future (Ji & Chen, 2008). The inter-generational changes in BMI are usually not observed in developing countries, but it is related to the fact that body height in those countries is still increasing (in proportion to body weight), which in effect does not cause changes in BMI (Hosseini et al, 2010). In Italy a positive trend was noticed already from the 1850s and lasted until the last decade of the 20th century (Arcaleni, 2006), but the results of the latest surveys show that it has already been hampered (Danubio & Sanna, 2008).…”
