Abstract

We examined rural and urban prevalence and correlates of overweight/obesity among women of reproductive age using survey data from Nigeria. Overweight and obesity prevalence increased from 16.1% and 6.1% in 2008 to 18.2% and 10.0% in 2018, while underweight prevalence consistently averaged at 12%. Regardless of the residential setting, age, marital status, education, occupation, wealth, and year were associated with higher risk of overweight/obesity, whereas breastfeeding showed a protective effect. Unique risk factors for overweight/obesity in urban areas were higher parity and female-headed households, while ethnicity, media exposure, and state of residence were unique risk factors in rural areas.

尼日利亚育龄妇女超重和肥胖流行率及其相关因素的城乡差别：对重复横截面数据的多层次分析》。

我们利用尼日利亚的调查数据研究了农村和城市育龄妇女中超重/肥胖的流行率及其相关因素。超重和肥胖的发生率分别从 2008 年的 16.1% 和 6.1% 上升到 2018 年的 18.2% 和 10.0%，而体重不足的发生率一直平均为 12%。无论居住环境如何，年龄、婚姻状况、教育程度、职业、财富和年份都与较高的超重/肥胖风险有关，而母乳喂养则具有保护作用。城市地区超重/肥胖的独特风险因素是较高的奇偶性和女户主家庭，而种族、媒体接触和居住州则是农村地区的独特风险因素。

期刊介绍： Ecology of Food and Nutrition is an international journal of food and nutrition in the broadest sense. The journal publishes peer-reviewed articles on all aspects of food and nutrition -- ecological, biological, and cultural. Ecology of Food and Nutrition strives to become a forum for disseminating scholarly information on the holistic and cross-cultural dimensions of the study of food and nutrition. It emphasizes foods and food systems not only in terms of their utilization to satisfy human nutritional needs and health, but also to promote and contest social and cultural identity. The content scope is thus wide -- articles may focus on the relationship between food and nutrition, food taboos and preferences, ecology and political economy of food, the evolution of human nutrition, changes in food habits, food technology and marketing, food and identity, and food sustainability. Additionally, articles focusing on the application of theories and methods to address contemporary food and nutrition problems are encouraged. Questions of the relationship between food/nutrition and culture are as germane to the journal as analyses of the interactions among nutrition and environment, infection and human health.
