TAMAÑO Y COMPOSICIÓN CORPORAL EN NIÑOS MEXICANOS II. EL USO DEL ÍNDICE DE MASA CORPORAL PARA LA EDAD EN LA EVALUACIÓN DEL SOBREPESO
Abstract
Las relaciones entre el IMC y el porcentaje de grasa corporal difieren entre las poblaciones. Las diferencias geográficas y socioeconómicas entre las regiones de México pueden afectar a la composición corporal y el IMC no puede determinar la verdadera relación entre la masa corporal libre de grasa y de grasa. Se argumenta que las referencias de índice de masa corporal Internacional no son convenientes para ser aplicado a nivel epidemiológico nacional. Esta revisión discute el uso del índice de masa corporal para la edad en niños mexicanos.
Abstract
Relations between BMI and percent of body fat differ across populations. The geographical and socioeconomic differences among regions of Mexico may affect body composition and BMI cannot determine the true relation between body fat and fat free mass. It is argued that the International BMI references are not convenient to be applied a national epidemiological level. This review discusses the use of body mass index for age in Mexican children.
