at Ha Nam Provincial General Hospital. Objective: Describe nutritional status and some related
factors. Method: Cross-sectional description. Results: According to the classification of the World

of study subjects with normal BMI was 46.8%; overweight and obesity was 53.2%. The prevalence
of overweight and obesity in men was 56.3% higher than that of women 49.7%. Some factors related
to overweight and obesity have statistical significance (p < 0.05): The high waist/hip ratio group has
risk of obesity 2.55 times higher (95% CI: 1.08 - 6) than that of the normal waist/hip group. The
economic well-off/rich group has higher risk of obesity 3.04 times (95%CI: 2.04 – 4.55) than the
poor/medium economic group.
