摘要： 上臂围是评价儿童营养状况和生长发育的简便而有效的指标。我们对北京市902名(男462名:女440名)7—12岁学龄儿童进行了上臂围、体重和身长的测量。结果表明这个年龄组儿童的上臂围是在16—20cm之间,其上臂围随年龄增长而增加,并与体重高度相关。上臂围测量的优点是操作迅速而容易,不需要太多的费用和复杂的仪器。

Abstract: Upper arm circumference is an useful and convenient index for evaluating the nutritional status and growth of young children. We mersured upper arm circumference, weight and hight in 902 school-age children (462 males 440 females). They are living in Beijing. The range of age in this group was 7 to 12 years old. The upper arm circumferences of children in this age group ranged from 16cm to 20cm. Upper arm circumference grows gradually with increasing of age and there is a close correlation between upper arm circumference and weight. The advantages of using the uppr arm circumference measurement is that it is time-saving and easy to perform, requires no expensive or sophisticated equipment.
