Table 8.

Assessment of the odds ratio of the incidence of body mass disorders in children relative to mother and father’s BMI classification based on three two-factor logistic regression models (separately determined for incidence of overweight, obesity and overweight or obesity).

Independent Factors Effect Prevalence Among Children
Overweight Obesity Overweight or Obesity
OR (95% C.I.)
BMI Classification (Father) obesity vs. normal 1.87 (1.58–2.23) * 2.26 (1.62–3.15) * 2.03 (1.73–2.37) *
overweight vs. normal 1.36 (1.18–1.57) * 0.98 (0.72–1.34) 1.30 (1.14–1.48) *
BMI Classification (Mother) obesity vs. normal 1.91 (1.62–2.26) * 2.41 (1.72–3.39) * 2.07 (1.77–2.42) *
overweight vs. normal 1.38 (1.21–1.59) * 1.68 (1.25–2.26) * 1.45 (1.28–1.65) *

OR—odds ratio; C.I.—confidence interval. p < 0.05 (*).
