#' Deren prevalence data on child thinness, overweight and obesity
#'
#' Age-sex-specific prevalence rates of thinness, overweight and obesity in
#' Ukraine children based on body mass index and IOTF, WHO and CDC cut-offs.
#'
#' Note that the overweight prevalences are for overweight excluding obesity,
#' i.e. the prevalence for BMI between the overweight and obesity cutoffs.
