Abstract

Introduction: The international community is increasing concerned about obesity, which it has become one of the most common noninfectious pandemics worldwide and affects a growing number of children.

Material and methods: We conducted an analytic cross-sectional study from May 25 to June 16, 2010, among a sample of 435 randomly selected students in secondary schools in the city of Ouagadougou to identify the factors contributing to obesity and overweight.

Results: The main factors significantly associated with obesity and overweight were family history of obesity (OR = 7.4), higher socioeconomic level (OR = 3.8), snacking on candy (OR = 5, 3), pastry (OR = 3.5), and chocolate (OR = 12.6), frequent consumption of sweets (OR = 2.2), lack of physical activity (OR = 4.4), and conflictual family relationships (OR = 3.9).

Conclusion: Dealing with these factors in prevention activities should help to reduce the prevalence of overweight and obesity and their morbid consequences later on.

[与瓦加杜古(布基纳法索)儿童超重和肥胖相关的因素]。

导言:国际社会日益关注肥胖问题，肥胖已成为世界范围内最常见的非传染性流行病之一，影响到越来越多的儿童。材料和方法:2010年5月25日至6月16日，我们在瓦加杜古市的435名随机抽取的中学学生中进行了一项分析横断面研究，以确定导致肥胖和超重的因素。结果:与肥胖和超重显著相关的主要因素是肥胖家族史(OR = 7.4)、较高的社会经济水平(OR = 3.8)、以糖果(OR = 5,3)、糕点(OR = 3.5)和巧克力(OR = 12.6)为零食、频繁食用糖果(OR = 2.2)、缺乏体育锻炼(OR = 4.4)和家庭关系冲突(OR = 3.9)。结论:在预防活动中处理这些因素有助于减少超重和肥胖的患病率及其以后的病态后果。
