母亲教育程度对儿童贫血的影响研究

Effect of maternal education on anemia of children

目的探讨母亲教育程度对儿童贫血的影响。方法对186名5岁以下儿童及其母亲进行出生体重、出生6个月内喂养方式、辅食添加、过去2周有无患感染性疾病及母亲教育程度等贫血危险因素调查。结果与母亲教育程度高的儿童比较,母亲教育程度低的儿童贫血发生率显著升高(14.1%与4.3%,P<0.05)。多因素回归分析显示,母亲教育程度、出生体重、出生6个月内喂养方式及辅食添加均是儿童贫血发生的独立危险因素。结论母亲教育程度是儿童贫血发生的独立危险因素。

Objective To investigate the effect of maternal education on anemia of children. Methods 186 children under 5 years of age and their mothers were recruited. Information on birth weight, feeding pattern within 6 months after birth,addition of complementary foods,infectious diseases during the past two weeks and degrees of maternal education were collected. Results Compared with children whose mothers received high levels of education, children with low maternal education had a higher rate of anemia （ 14.1% 与4.3%, P 〈 0.05 ）.Multiple variable logistic regression analysis revealed that maternal education, birth weight,feeding pattern within 6 months after birth and addition of complementary foods were independent risk factors for children anemia. Conclusion Maternal education was an independent risk factor for children anemia.
