BODY WEIGHT AND BMI PERCENTILES FOR CHILDREN IN THE SOUTH EAST ASIAN NUTRITION SURVEYS SEANUTS

---

Objective: The present study aimed to (i) calculate body-weight- and BMI-for-age
percentile values for children aged 0·5–12 years participating in the South-East Asian
Nutrition Survey (SEANUTS); (ii) investigate whether the pooled (i.e. including all
countries) SEANUTS weight- and BMI-for-age percentile values can be used for all
SEANUTS countries instead of country-specific ones; and (iii) examine whether the
pooled SEANUTS percentile values differ from the WHO growth references.
Design: Body weight and length/height were measured. The LMS method was
used for calculating smoothened body-weight- and BMI-for-age percentile values.
The standardized site effect (SSE) values were used for identifying large
differences (i.e. jSSEj>0·5) between the pooled SEANUTS sample and the
remaining pooled SEANUTS samples after excluding one single country each time,
as well as with WHO growth references.
Setting: Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia.
Subjects: Data from 14 202 eligible children.
Results: The SSE derived from the comparisons of the percentile values between
the pooled and the remaining pooled SEANUTS samples were indicative of small/
acceptable (i.e. jSSEj≤0·5) differences. In contrast, the comparisons of the pooled
SEANUTS sample with WHO revealed large differences in certain percentiles.
Conclusions: The findings of the present study support the use of percentile values
derived from the pooled SEANUTS sample for evaluating the weight status of
children in each SEANUTS country. Nevertheless, large differences were observed
in certain percentiles values when SEANUTS and WHO reference values were
compared.
