Objective To understand the clinical characteristics of nanosomia and analyze its influencing factors,so as to provide theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of short stature.Methods A total of 122 children with nanoso-mia in Lishui Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from August 2021 to March 2023 were selected as the research ob-ject,and 124 children with normal development during the same period were selected as the control group.Clinical data of the two groups were compared,and the clinical characteristics and influencing factors of nanosomia were analyzed.Re-sults The body weight,BMI,bone age,and bone age index(BAI)of the observation group were(27.25±4.23)kg,17.52±2.65,(9.61±1.72)years,and 0.91±0.25,respectively,while the control group were(39.36±4.62)kg,20.85±2.72,(12.89±1.68)years,and 1.26±0.29,respectively.The observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed vitamin D deficiency(OR=4.608),accompanied by basic diseases(OR=2.529),family history of short stature(OR=1.931),paternal height less than 160 cm(OR=3.089),maternal height less than 150 cm(OR=3.861),mixed or breast-fed within six months of birth(OR=1.876),family discord(OR=1.966),less bounce exercise per week(OR=4.898),and sleep duration less than 10 h/d(OR=6.651)were independent risk factors affecting the occurrence of nanosomia in children.Conclu-sion The weight and bone age of children with nanosomia are lower than those of normal children.The occurrence of nanosomia is affected by many factors such as environment and heredity.Clinical intervention measures should be taken according to the above-mentioned high-risk factors to reduce the risk of nanosomia.
