摘要：

The percent of ideal body weight at first visit to pediatric referral clinics was compared by chart review between, patients with failure to thrive and obese patients. Results indicated that underweight children were mildly underweight, whereas the overweight children were severely so. In primary care settings, underweight children may be referred more aggressively than overweight children. (J Pediatr 2002;141:121-4).
