Wasting in very young children increases their risk of mortality (relative risk: 2.3), and this risk increases further if they are also stunted and underweight (defined as a length-for-age z-score (LAZ) below –2 and a weight-for-age z-score (WAZ) below –2, respectively; relative ...
In Black children at the height of the pubertal growth spurt, half to three-quarters were underweight for age and hence classifiable as "malnourished". However, percentages fell rapidly to one-fifth or less at 17 years. High prevalences of stunting were common in Blacks. Wasting occurred in...

Malnutrition in children is a major public health concern. This study aimed to determine the association between dietary diversity and stunting, underweight, wasting, and diarrhea and that between consumption of each specific food group and these nutriti
Anthropometric measures have been used to estimate the prevalence of malnutrition from before 2002. These measures were obtained during household surveys and nutrition status was assessed using a MUAC as well as weight-for-height (wasting), weight-for-age (underweight) and height-for-age (stunting...

Mother's education, BMI, height, wealth index, child birth-weight and sex were factors significantly associated with stunting, wasting and underweight. CONCLUSIONS :Prevalence of stunting, wasting and underweight in Developing Countries were quite high. To carry-out differentials of under-nutrition ...
