چکیده مقاله:
Background: Obesity is considered as one of the most important nutrition and health issues among adolescents in the developing countries. In this respect, risks and problems associated with obesity can put a huge burden on the health care system of a society. Moreover, underweight and malnutrition are also prevalent in developing countries and impose enormous health care expenditures on individuals and societies. Thus, this study was conducted to investigate the weight status among ۱۰th-grade high school students residing in the city of Golpayegan, Iran. Methods: A total number of ۸۰۰ students including ۳۹۶ boys and ۴۰۴ girls studying at the ۱۰th grade of high school were included in this cross-sectional research with a descriptive design. The participants were selected using a random cluster sampling method. Moreover, the demographic characteristic information and the anthropometric status (based on the US CDC criteria, ۲۰۰۰) questionnaires were completed for each participant and the data were analyzed using SPSS (Version ۱۶). Results: The mean age of the students was ۱۵.۶ ± ۶.۶ years. The total prevalence rate of underweight was ۱۱.۴% (۹۱ individuals) including ۱۴.۲% in boys and ۸.۷% in girls. The overweight rate was equal to ۱۰.۸۵% including ۱۰.۴% in boys and ۱۱.۱% in girls. Furthermore, the rate of obesity was ۶.۳% including ۷.۳% and ۵.۲% in boys and girls, respectively. Conclusion: Following the specification of the rates of underweight, overweight, and obesity among students, the authorities are recommended to provide proper nutrition programs, good lifestyle, and educational courses for individuals in this domain.
