RESUMEN

Objective: To examine the associations between social determinants of health (SDOH) and prevalent overweight/obesity status and change in adiposity status among American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) children. Methods: The study sample includes 23,950 AI/AN children 2-11 years of age, who used Indian Health Service (IHS) from 2010 to 2014. Multivariate generalized linear mixed models were used to examine the following: (1) cross-sectional associations between SDOH and prevalent overweight/obesity status and (2) longitudinal associations between SDOH and change in adiposity status over time. Results: Approximately 49% of children had prevalent overweight/obesity status; 18% had overweight status and 31% had obesity status. Prevalent severe obesity status was 20% in 6-11-year olds. In adjusted cross-sectional models, children living in counties with higher levels of poverty had 28% higher odds of prevalent overweight/obesity status. In adjusted longitudinal models, children 2-5 years old living in counties with more children eligible for free or reduced-priced lunch had 15% lower odds for transitioning from normal-weight status to overweight/obesity status. Conclusions: This work contributes to accumulating knowledge that economic instability, especially poverty, appears to play a large role in overweight/obesity status in AI/AN children. Research, clinical practice, and policy decisions should aim to address and eliminate economic instability in childhood.
