Abbreviations: BMI, body mass index; PR, prevalence ratio.
The percentage of age- and sex-adjusted body mass index at the 95th percentile.
P value determined by robust linear regression with bisquare weighting adjusted for child age, sex, race/ethnicity, annual household income, and parent BMI (weight in kg divided by height in meters2; α = .05.
P value determined by multivariable logistic regression adjusted for child age, sex, race/ethnicity, annual household income, and parent BMI; α = 0.05.
Aged 2y, ≥12 h/d; 3–4 y, ≥11 h/d; 5–12 y, ≥10 h/d (15).
