摘要

目的:开展了一项研究,以评估埃塞俄比亚两个干旱易发地区五岁以下儿童营养不良的患病率及其相关因素。研究设计和设置:通过横断面、混合方法,使用多阶段随机抽样方法分析数据。研究对象和结果测量:从350个家庭收集社会经济因素、人口统计特征和人体测量数据。使用世界卫生组织Anthro软件计算304名0至60个月儿童的身高(HAZ)、身高(WHZ)和年龄(WAZ)z评分。HAZ、WHZ和WAZ的z评分低于−2标准差(SD)的儿童分别被归类为发育迟缓、消瘦和体重不足。使用描述性统计、t检验、相关性和回归分析来评估自变量与发育迟缓和体重不足之间的关系。结果:发育迟缓、消瘦和体重不足的患病率分别为49.4%、13.7%和37.1%。在测试的自变量中,农业生态学与发育迟缓显著相关(p = 0.012)和体重不足(p < 0.001),而牲畜饲养与发育迟缓显著相关(p = 0.008)和体重不足(p = 0.012)。获得灌溉也与发育迟缓显著相关(p = 0.028)和体重不足(p = 0.016)。然而,发育迟缓、消瘦和体重不足的患病率与家庭规模、土地保有量或患病频率没有显著关联。结论:研究区域内营养不良的患病率高于埃塞俄比亚的全国平均水平。低地地区营养不良率最高;因此,包括增加牲畜保有量和获得灌溉的干预措施应包括农业生态因素,以减少儿童营养不良。

Nutritional status of children aged 0–60 months in two drought-prone areas of Ethiopia
Objectives: A study was undertaken to assess the prevalence of undernutrition and associated factors among children under five in two drought-prone areas in Ethiopia. Study design and setting: Through a cross-sectional, mixed-methods approach, data were analysed using multistage random sampling methods. Study subjects and outcome measures: Data were collected on socioeconomic factors, demographic characteristics and anthropometric measurements from 350 households. Height-for-age (HAZ), weight-for-height (WHZ) and weight-for-age (WAZ) z-scores of 304 children, aged 0–60 months, were calculated using the WHO Anthro software. Children with z-scores of less than −2 standard deviations (SDs) for HAZ, WHZ and WAZ were classified as stunted, wasted and underweight respectively. Descriptive statistics, t-tests, correlation and regression analyses were used to assess the relationships between independent variables and stunting and underweight. Results: Prevalence of stunting, wasting and underweight were 49.4%, 13.7% and 37.1% respectively. Among independent variables tested, agroecology was significantly associated with stunting (p = 0.012) and underweight (p < 0.001), while livestock holding was significantly correlated with stunting (p = 0.008) and underweight (p = 0.012). Access to irrigation was also significantly associated with stunting (p = 0.028) and underweight (p = 0.016). However, the prevalence of stunting, wasting and underweight was not significantly associated with household size, landholdings or frequency of sickness. Conclusions: The prevalence of undernutrition within the study areas was higher than the national average for Ethiopia. Lowland areas exhibited the highest rates of undernutrition; consequently, interventions that include the enhancement of livestock holdings and access to irrigation should include agroecological factors in an effort to reduce childhood undernutrition.
