Childhood overweight and obesity are known to have immediate and long-term health consequences and are now recognized important public health concerns of our time. In this study, we aimed to assess thetransitions across states defined in terms of body mass index categories on young children.<\/p>\n<p>Although children experiences transitions in a continuous time, assessments on them are often made at irregularity spaced time points. A Markov 4-state model for examining longitudinal data on the body mass index (BMI) status collected under interval-censoring observation is formulated. The participants consisted of 4128 children from Generation XXI birth cohort, Porto \u2013 Portugal, with anthropometric evaluations at three follow up waves, from 2005 and 2017. The instantaneous rate of transition of children between the ages 4 and 10 years, among various states, defined by the BMI categories was estimated and the effect of maternal age and education, type of delivery, sex and birth weight was evaluated. Statistical significant results were only found for sex and maternal education and were only significant on the progressive transitions.<\/p>\n<p>Authors: Carla Moreira, Lu\u00eds Meira-Machado, Maria Jo\u00e3o Fonseca, Ana Cristina Santos.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>EPIUnit \u2013 Instituto de Sa\u00fade P\u00fablica, Universidade do Porto<\/li>\n<li>Departamento de Ci\u00eancias da Sa\u00fade P\u00fablica e Forenses e Educa\u00e7\u00e3o M\u00e9dica, Faculdade de Medicina, Universidade do Porto, Porto, Portugal.<\/li>\n<li>CMAT &#8211; Centre of Mathematics &amp;Department of Mathematics and Applications, University of Minho, Portugal.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>April 25th 2019 Biomedical Research Center &#8211; CINBIO | Conference room &#8211; Torre CACTI Body mass index transitions during childhood: a multi-state model approach 2019\/04\/25 &hellip; <a class=\"excerpt_more\" href=\"https:\/\/sidor.uvigo.es\/en\/2019-04-25-carla-moreira-instituto-de-saude-publica-da-universidade-do-porto\/\">Continued<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[101],"tags":[121],"class_list":["post-4449","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-seminars","tag-seminars"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sidor.uvigo.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4449\/"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sidor.uvigo.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sidor.uvigo.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post\/"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sidor.uvigo.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2\/"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sidor.uvigo.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments\/?post=4449"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/sidor.uvigo.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4449\/revisions\/"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11266,"href":"https:\/\/sidor.uvigo.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4449\/revisions\/11266\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sidor.uvigo.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/?parent=4449"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sidor.uvigo.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/?post=4449"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sidor.uvigo.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags\/?post=4449"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
