Abstract:
Objective:To explore the relationship between myopia and nutritional status among upper elementary students in Shanghai.
Methods:A stratified cluster sampling method was used to select 5 576 fourth and fifth grade students from 16 districts in Shanghai, vision test, physical examination and questionnaire survey were administered. Two level multivariate Logistic regression and mixed linear models were used to analyze the relationship between myopia, spherical equivalent (SE) and nutritional status.
Results:The detection rates of overweight and obesity were 17.0%(949) and 18.7%(1 042), respectively. There was a statistical difference in the proportion of the nutritional status in boys and girls( χ 2=210.94, P <0.01), with overweight and obesity in boys higher than those of girls. The overweight boys were more likely to have myopia (univariate analysis: OR=1.23, P =0.04; multivariate analysis: OR=1.21, P =0.06) than the normal weight boy. Overweight students tended to had more negative refractive than those with normal weight in both boys and girls(multivariate analysis, boys: β =-0.19, girls: β=-0.24, P <0.05). Myopia risk and refractive power in obese students showed no statistical difference with normal weight students( P >0.05).
Conclusion:Overweight students have lower SE than the normal weight among upper elementary students of Shanghai, more researches are needed to confirm this finding and to provide theoretical bases for myopia prevention and control.
