When is the estimation of weight and height good enough? A life cycle view
Anthropometry – the measurement of body size and proportion – is an objective component of a comprehensive nutrition assessment. As such, it is intended to give a true (accurate and precise) reflection of the reality which one wants to observe. This applies to dietetic and clinical practice as well as the scientific study of growth and nutritional status throughout the life cycle. Measurements of weight and the height/length of the human body are the foundation of anthropometric assessment. True values for these parameters are obtained through measurement, using calibrated equipment and appropriate technique.
期刊介绍:
1.The Journal accepts articles from all basic and applied areas of dietetics and human nutrition, including clinical nutrition, community nutrition, food science, food policy, food service management, nutrition policy and public health nutrition. 2.The Journal has a broad interpretation of the field of nutrition and recognizes that there are many factors that determine nutritional status and that need to be the subject of scientific investigation and reported in the Journal. 3.The Journal seeks to serve a broad readership and to provide information that will be useful to the scientific community, the academic community, government and non-government stakeholders in the nutrition field, policy makers and industry.
