Maintaining BMI for age was defined as a 0-unit change in the distance from the median BMI for age at a measurement point from the baseline. BMI was calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared. Table. Baseline Characteristics of Youths by Baseline BMI for Agea View...
To determine your child's BMI you need to divide her weight in pounds by her height in inches. Then divide this number by her height in inches again. Finally, multiply this number by 703. The answer reflects your child's BMI. The CDC recommends that after completing the BMI calculation, ...
ExposuresDifferent combinations of BMI (calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared; normal weight: BMI, 18.5-24.9; overweight: BMI, 25.0-29.9; and obesity: BMI, ≥30) and WC (normal: WC, ≤88 cm and high: WC, >88 cm). ...

Compared with women of normal weight, obese mothers had lower odds of being exposed to pro-breastfeeding hospital practices during the birth hospitalization. Specifically, obese mothers had higher odds of using a pacifier in the hospital [odds ratio (OR) 1.31, 95 % confidence interval (CI) (...
When using pounds and inches to calculate your BMI, the formula must be adjusted. You will have to multiply your weight in pounds by 703. BMI = weight (lb) x 703 / height (inches²) BMI is acknowledged as a way to discuss weight problems more objectively. No matter how tall, thick...
Weight and height were measured using a SECA scale and a bevel wall (methodology Frankfurt). Nutritional assessment was performed by BMI / age as proposed by the Center for Disease Control (CDC). Comparisons were made using analysis of variance, Tukey test and Kruskal-Wallis test. Box plots ...
Demographic, socioeconomic, and dietary data are collected as part of the interview. For both NHANES cohorts, physical examinations were performed in a mobile examination center, where height and weight were measured by using standardized protocols and calibrated equipment, and body mass index (BMI)...
Methods The prevalence and correlates of combined body mass index (normal weight, <25.0; overweight, 25.0-29.9; and obese, ≥30.0 [calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared]) and cardiometabolic groups (metabolically healthy, 0 or 1 cardiometabolic abnormalities; and met...
Child BMI Z-score was calculated from height and weight measured at 5 y. Using linear regression, controlling for sociodemographics and family lifestyle, we examined prepregnancy BMI-specific associations between GWG and child BMI Z-score. There was a nonlinear association among normal (P< 0.001...
