The increasing prevalence of obese children and adolescents
emphasizes the importance of national and international
standards for screening childhood obesity. The main aim of
the study was to construct the Hungarian cut-off values of
waist-to-hip ratio, body fat percentage and visceral fat area
to diagnose obesity and abdominal obesity in children aged
between 7 and 18 years. The distribution of obese children
diagnosed by the international standards as well as by the
new national standards was compared in the analysis.
A group of healthy children (n: 869 boys and 881 girls, aged
between 7 and 18 years) formed the sample of the present
analysis. Body composition and body fat distribution of
subjects was estimated body impedance analysis (Inbody 720
device, Biospace, USA) and by anthropometric methods.
Nutritional status was estimated by body mass index. The
international cut-off values of body fatness indicators
determined for adults as well as the centile distribution of
body fatness indicators by age were used to construct the
critical cut-off values of obesity and abdominal obesity in
the studied age-group of subadults.
By considering the results of the present analysis the age-
dependent 95th centiles of body fat percentage and visceral
fat area were recommended for screening childhood obesity and
abdominal obesity in the studied age-group in both genders.
