  1. aTests for trend by Cochran-Armitage trend tests. bModel I included the linear term of academic years and the main effects of sex, grade, highest parental education and occupation, adjusting for weight status and frequency and duration of extracurricular physical activities. cModel II included the variables in Model I and their interactions with academic years. CI Confidence interval, AOR Adjusted odds ratio, ROR Ratios of odds ratios, ROR > 1 indicates that the difference between groups increases over the years. *P-value < 0.01, **P-value < 0.001
