The School Health Examination Survey is a nationwide examination carried out annually in Japan, and the results are entered into a prefectural-level physical measurement database.
We used this database to determine the geographical differences in a population-based cross-sectional growth curve and investigated the association between age at peak height velocity (PHV) and the prevalence rate of overweight in children among Japanese prefectures.
Mean prefectural-level age at PHV was estimated by the cubic spline-fitting procedure using cross-sectional whole-year prefectural mean height data (5–17 years, 2006–2013), and 8-year (2006–2013) means of the standardized prevalence rates of overweight children and other anatomical data (8-year standardized weight and height) were recalculated.
Mean prefectural age at PHV was more strongly correlated with the mean prefectural prevalence rate of overweight (age 5–8 years) than with other weights or heights in both sexes.
On the basis of these findings and their confirmation by multiple regression analysis, the prevalence rate of overweight was selected as a primary factor to explain the geographical difference in age at PHV.
These findings suggest that childhood overweight is a dominant factor responsible for the observed geographical differences in onset of puberty in Japan.
