Example: <front> (front matter)

These search results reproduce every example of the use of <front> in the Guidelines, including all localised and translated versions. In some cases, the examples have been drawn from discussion of other elements in the Guidelines and illustrating the use of <front> is not the main focus of the passage in question. In other cases, examples may be direct translations of each other, and hence identical from the perspective of their encoding.

   <head> BACKGROUND:</head>
   <p>Food insecurity can put children at greater risk of obesity because
         of altered food choices and nonuniform consumption patterns.</p>
  </div>
  <div>
   <head> OBJECTIVE:</head>
   <p>We examined the association between obesity and both child-level
         food insecurity and personal food insecurity in US children.</p>
  </div>
  <div>
   <head> DESIGN:</head>
   <p>Data from 9,701 participants in the National Health and Nutrition
         Examination Survey, 2001-2010, aged 2 to 11 years were analyzed.
         Child-level food insecurity was assessed with the US Department of
         Agriculture's Food Security Survey Module based on eight
         child-specific questions. Personal food insecurity was assessed with
         five additional questions. Obesity was defined, using physical
         measurements, as body mass index (calculated as kg/m2) greater than
         or equal to the age- and sex-specific 95th percentile of the Centers
         for Disease Control and Prevention growth charts. Logistic
         regressions adjusted for sex, race/ethnic group, poverty level, and
         survey year were conducted to describe associations between obesity
         and food insecurity.</p>
  </div>
  <div>
   <head> RESULTS:</head>
   <p>Obesity was significantly associated with personal food insecurity
         for children aged 6 to 11 years (odds ratio=1.81; 95% CI 1.33 to
         2.48), but not in children aged 2 to 5 years (odds ratio=0.88; 95%
         CI 0.51 to 1.51). Child-level food insecurity was not associated
         with obesity among 2- to 5-year-olds or 6- to 11-year-olds.</p>
  </div>
  <div>
   <head> CONCLUSIONS:</head>
   <p>Personal food insecurity is associated with an increased risk of
         obesity only in children aged 6 to 11 years. Personal
         food-insecurity measures may give different results than aggregate
         food-insecurity measures in children.</p>
