Anisometropia prevalence in a highly astigmatic school-aged population.
PURPOSE To describe prevalence of anisometropia, defined in terms of both sphere and cylinder, examined cross-sectionally, in school-aged members of a Native American tribe with a high prevalence of astigmatism. METHODS Cycloplegic autorefraction measurements, confirmed by retinoscopy and, when possible, by subjective refraction were obtained from 1041 Tohono O'odham children, 4 to 13 years o...

متن کاملPrevalence and Associations of Anisometropia in Children.
PURPOSE To describe prevalence and associations of anisometropia in children. METHODS The cross-sectional school-based study included children aged 4 to 18 years. RESULTS The study included 6025 (94.7%) of 6364 eligible children. Mean refractive anisometropia was 0.37 ± 0.57 diopters (median: 0.25 diopters; range: 0-7.88 diopters; prevalence [≥1 diopter]: 7.0% ± 0.3%). In multivariate analy...
متن کاملEstimated portion sizes in a school-aged population.
OBJECTIVE To produce study-specific portion sizes for 11-year-old children in a population-based birth cohort and to compare these study-specific portion sizes with previously published children's portion sizes, to assess their relevance today. DESIGN Two multiple-pass 24 h dietary recalls were taken. The Food Standard Agency's photographic food atlas was used to quantify intakes. Study-speci...
