Book excerpt: Abstract: As part of a series of studies authorized by Congress and conducted by the National Center for Health Statistics, the Second National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES II) was conducted (similarly to NHANES I). Information on dietary intake patterns was collected and various hematological and biochemical tests, anthropometric measurements, and clinical assessments were made. An important change in approach to nutritional assessments was to investigate anemia in more detail than in NHANES I. Other major target conditions are described. Topics covered are: the sample design for NHANES II, operational plan, quality control, pilot testing and plan for analysis and publication of data. Appendixes include forms used by survey personnel.

About 12,000 of the sample persons were black Americans, 12,000 were Mexican-Americans, and the remaining 16,000 were of all other race and ethnicity groups. All selected persons were asked to complete an extensive interview and an examination in a large mobile examination center. The survey period is 1988-94, consisting of two phases of equal length and sample size. Both Phase 1 and Phase 2 were random samples of the U.S. population living in households.

Download or read book What Is America Eating written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1986-01-01 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For its annual symposium in 1984, the Food and Nutrition Board posed the key nutritional question: "What is America eating?" This resultant volume explains dietary habits, examines the impact of fast-food proliferation and the changing role of women as it affects dietary behavior, and analyzes the nutritional consequences of national dietary trends. Speakers focused on what major food consumption surveys and large-scale studies have demonstrated, including factors that shape eating patterns, eating trends such as snacking and food variety, nutrition policy and its effects on diet, and the overall nutritional status of the U.S. population.
Download or read book Epidemiology of Obesity in Children and Adolescents written by Luis A. Moreno and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-01-12 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite adults’ best preventive efforts, childhood obesity is on the rise in most areas of the world, and with it the prevalence of Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and other formerly adult-onset conditions. Epidemiology of Obesity in Children and Adolescents takes the global ecological approach that is needed to understand the scope of the problem and its multiple causes and mechanisms, and to aid in developing more effective prevention and intervention programs. In the book’s first half, experts present a descriptive summary of youth obesity trends in ten world regions, broken down by age group, gender, socioeconomic status, and risk factors. Complementing these findings, part two reviews the evidence base regarding the variables, separately and in combination, having the most significant impact on young people’s development of obesity, including: • Genetic and nutrigenomic factors. • Environmental and psychosocial factors, such as family shopping and eating habits and access to healthful foods. • Neuroendocrine regulation. • Prenatal and neonatal factors (e.g., gestational diabetes of the mother). • Dietary factors, from nutrient content to young people’s food preferences. • Physical activity versus sedentary behavior. Epidemiology of Obesity in Children and Adolescents is necessary reading for the range of professionals involved in curtailing this epidemic, including public health specialists, epidemiologists, pediatricians, nurses, nutritionists, psychologists, health educators, and policymakers.
