Abstract

Objective To evaluate the status of dietary diversity and determinants among school-age left-behind children. Methods A total of 501 children aged 9-10 years in Sheyang Mini Cohort Study were enrolled from Sheyang City in Jiangsu Province during 2019. A questionnaires survey was administrated to collect left-behind and socioeconomic information. Twenty-four hour dietary recall survey was conducted, dietary diversity score (DDS₁₀ and DDS) and food variety score (FVS) were computed according to Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Weight and height of children were measured and sex-and age-standardized body mass index was used to define obesity. Multivariable regression models were preformed to explore the determinants of dietary diversity in school-age left-behind children. Results The proportion of left-behind children was 40.9%. The mean value and standard deviation of three kinds of dietary diversity score (DDS₁₀, DDS, FVS) in left-behind children were (5.69±1.31)(6.55±1.44) and (13.48±4.23), respectively. All of these were lower than that in non-left-behind children (DDS₁₀: 5.99±1.29; DDS: 6.79±1.40; FVS: 14.15±4.22). Significant difference in DDS₁₀ between left-behind and non-left-behind children was observed (P=0.01). The results of multivariable regression demonstrated that gender, passive smoking, family education level and family economic status were related to dietary diversity scores (P < 0.05). Conclusion Dietary diversity in school-age left-behind children was not optimistic and gender, passive smoking, parental education level, family economic status and left-behind situation play a critical role in dietary diversity among these children.
