Abstract

Objective: To analyze the clinical risk factors of precocious puberty in children, with the purpose of providing evidence for the prevention of precocious puberty in children. Methods: A total of 70 children with precocious puberty admitted the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College from July 2019 to December 2020 were selected into the observation group and 70 normal children into the control group. The general information, growth and development indicators of the two groups of children were compared. A questionnaire survey was conducted on the two groups of children’s dietary patterns, living conditions, and family status. The obtained data were analyzed using univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results: There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups of children in gender, age, place of residence, and whether they were the only children(P>0.05). Height, weight, and body mass index (BMI) of the observation group were greater than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that balanced diet, high-calorie and high-fat diet, nap habits, exercise time, sleep with light on, schoolwork burden, frequently using of plastic products and adult toiletries, watching emotional TV, mother’s menarche age, mother’s education level and occupation, parental relationship, and companionship were all related to precocious puberty in children. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that high-calorie and high-fat dietary patterns, mothers’ menarche age, disharmony relationship between parents, and lacking of companionship were risk factors for precocious puberty in children. Conclusion: Precocious puberty in children is affected by many factors, which are closely related to the high-calorie and high-fat diet, mothers’ menarche age, parental relationship and companionship. Family relationships should be improved to help children develop a balanced diet, nap and exercise habits, which is beneficial to children’s normal growth and development.
