Figure 1

Time span of data collection and number of days over which the anthropometric measurements were taken in children aged 6–9 years (only children whose age fell within the country-specific targeted age group(s) were included (see Table 1)) by 12 countries in COSI round 1. COSI: Childhood Obesity Surveillance Initiative. Notes. The interval between the major vertical lines is 30 days. The numbers in the blue bars represent the duration in days of the data collection period, which was calculated by subtracting the first measurement date from the last measurement date in the country-specific dataset.
