[Multi-level mixed effect model study on the association between dietary environmental risk factors and obesity among Chinese children and adolescents].

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the influence of dietary environmental factors in 12 provinces of China on obesity among children and adolescents aged 7-17 in 2011. METHODS: Based on the dietary environmental and physical examination data of China Health and Nutrition Survey 2011(Multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method, 3 day 24 hour retrospective method, individual-household-community questionnaire survey and physical examination method such as height and weight measurement were used), 1416 children and adolescents aged 7-17(male 50. 71%; the age group of 7-10 years old accounted for 43. 50%, that of 11-14 years old 37. 43%, and that of 15-17 years old 19. 07%) with complete data were selected as the research subjects, and combined with the dietary environmental data of the corresponding provinces from National Statistical Yearbook 2011, a three-level(province-community-individual) logistic mixed effect(random intercept) model was constructed to binary outcome variables of obesity or not, the effect of dietary environments on obesity in children and adolescents was analyzed, and the characteristics of risk factors were determined. RESULTS: Considering that the P values of the two-level empty model of "province-individual"and"community-individual" constructed separately were P<0. 005 and 0. 050
