Early Breastfeeding Cessation in Rural Senegal
Objectives. We studied reasons for cessation of breastfeeding before the age of 15 months, replacement feeding modes, and child mortality in West Africa. Methods. Data were gathered for 12208 children born between 1987 and 1997 in a rural area of Senegal. Interviews were conducted with caregivers of early-weaned children, and child mortality risks were assessed. Results. Fewer than 1% of children had been weaned early. The main reasons for early …
Nutritional status and age at menarche of Senegalese adolescents
Growth and maturation during adolescence has not been well described in rural African populations, although it may represent the missing link between high levels of preschool stunting and nearly 'normal' adult heights. In 1995 the homes of subjects aged 10.3-17.5 years, living in a rural area of Senegal, were visited, and all adolescents present, 1527 boys and 1126 girls, were included in the analysis. A number of girls were absent because they w…
Comparative study of five growth models applied to weight data from congolese infants between birth and 13 months of age
Five growth models are compared using weight data from 95 rural Congolese infants between birth and 13 months of age. The objective is to find the best model in terms of goodness of fit and distribution of parameter estimates. The Infancy component of the Karlberg model, the Count model, and the Kouchi model, which are all three‐parameter models, are tested together with the four‐ and five‐parameter versions of the Reed model. The closest fits ar…
