In Argentina, “rurality” is commonly defined as “that is not urban” based on the employment of different criteria i.e. geographical or statistical. The aim is to analyze, the nutritional status in relation to the socio-environmental characteristics of residence of children inhabiting in Magdalena (B...

The aim is to analyze, the nutritional status in relation to the socio-environmental characteristics of residence of children inhabiting in Magdalena (Buenos Aires, Argentina). A cross-sectional study was carried out in 428 students aged between 3.0 and 14.9 years attending to schools of different localities categorized as rural by the School Council. Weight (W) and height (H) were measured and Body Mass Index (BMI) was calculated. Prevalence of low weight-for-age (LWA), low height-for-age (LHA) and low BMI (LBMI), Overweight (O) and Obesity (OB) were estimated using WHO reference. The socio-environmental variables were surveyed using structured questioner and the data were analyzed by means of categorical principal component analysis. The results allowed to characterize the population and to differentiate two groups. Overall prevalence of excess of weight (29.8%: O 17.2%, OB 12.6%) exceeded 5 times undernutrition (6.7%: LWA 1.6%, LHA 4.4%, LBMI 0.7%). The regression analysis indicated a greater probability of obesity in males among the more urban group (1: 21.6%, 2: 9.80%). It is concluded that in the heterogeneous “rural” environment, the nutritional status of children differs. En Argentina, la “ruralidad” es definida comúnmente como “aquello que no es urbano” empleando diferentes criterios i.e. geográficos o estadísticos. El objetivo es analizar el estado nutricional en relación a las características socio-ambientales en que residen los niños de Magdalena (Buenos Aires, Argentina). Se realizó un estudio transversal en 428 escolares de 3.0 a 14.9 años asistentes a establecimientos de diferentes localidades categorizados como rurales por el Consejo Escolar. Se relevó peso (P) y talla (T) y calculó Índice de Masa Corporal (IMC). Las prevalencias de Bajo Peso/Edad (BPE), Baja Talla/Edad (BTE), Bajo IMC (BIMC), Sobrepeso (S) y Obesidad (O) fueron calculadas empleando la referencia OMS. Las variables socio-ambientales fueron relevadas mediante una encuesta estructurada. Los datos fueron analizados mediante análisis de componentes principales categórico y permitieron caracterizar a la población y diferenciarla en dos grupos. Las prevalencias generales de exceso de peso (29.8%: S 17.2%, O 12.6%) superaron 5 veces a la desnutrición (6.7%: BPE 1.6%, BTE 4.4%, BIMC 0.7%). La regresión indicó mayor probabilidad de obesidad en varones del grupo más urbano (1: 21.6%, 2: 9.80%). Se concluye que en el ambiente rural heterogéneo, el estado nutricional de los niños difiere.
