soon reach 85% in industrialized nations; therefore
预计在工业化的国家将很快达到85%因此

现在主要精力将集中在降低治疗引起的副作用
side effects of therapy such as malnutrition.

assess the nutritional status of a child. There is
目前，我们对如何界定儿童营养不良一事
currently no consensus on how to define malnutrition
尚未达成共识
in children but the most common practices involved
但最常见的做法就是
plotting weight to height ratios. Weight and height
绘制体重身高比例图
are usually plotted on standardized growth charts.
标准生长曲线图上常常包括体重和身高
Once a child’s placement has been determined on the
一旦一个儿童在生长曲线图上的位置被确定
growth chart this number can be converted to what is
此数字就可以转换成所谓Z
known as a Z score. A Z score is a numerical summary
一个Z就是一个数字摘要
of each child’s placement relative to a reference
它总结了每个儿童相对于参考人口的定位
population and are used to compare and assess data
可以用来比较和评估不同年龄不同性别

之间的数据 一旦Z确定了
is determined a child can be placed on what is
儿童就可定位在
known as a standard, normal distribution graph.
一个标准的正态分布图上
This graph puts the average variable that is being
这个图表的中心是被测量的平均变量
measured in the centre of a chart, any child
任何身高或体重Z 超过2个标准差的儿童
whose height or weight Z score is more than 2
无论其Z值是高于平均值
standard deviations greater or less than the mean is
或者低于平均值
considered to have significant growth abnormalities.
均被视为明显的异常生长
Thus is the child fell 2 standard deviations below the
这就是为什么Z低于平均值的2个标准差
mean he or she would be considered to be malnourished.
的儿童会被视为营养不良
However, studies have shown that simple weight,
然而研究表明 简单的体重和身高测量
height measurements are often inaccurate depending
往往是不准确的其数据也要取决于
on the type of tumor such as large solid tumors.
肿瘤类型，比如大型实体肿瘤
Other practices include tracking voluntary food intake
其他做法有跟踪采食量
and comparing intake to the required or
将其摄入量与所需或推荐准则相比较
recommended guidelines. If the child was eating
如果儿童摄入的能量低于其预计能量
less than 70% of his or her estimated energy
需求的70％那么
requirements then he or she would be considered
将被视为营养不良
malnourished. Another way is to take anthropometric
另一种方法是对肱三头肌皮褶厚度
measures of the tricep skin fold thickness to
进行人体测量，以确定人体内脂肪
determine adipose or fat energy reserves.
或脂肪的能量储备
If less than the 5th percentile for age and
测量值不足其年龄和性别水平
sex the patient would be considered malnourished.
