Anthropometric surveys of children are used to assess the nutritional status of a population. World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that either mid-upper-arm circumference (MUAC) or weight-for-height Z-scores (WHZ) are used to assess acute malnutrit
In this study, the WHtR values ranged from 0.28 to 0.79, and Table 1 evaluates the association between the baseline data and WHtR quintiles. With the gradual increase in WHtR, the proportion of male participants gradually increased, the age, height, weight, BMI, WC, SBP, and DBP of all ...
