The effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of cash plus interventions to prevent acute malnutrition in Somalia
Background: Acute malnutrition affects millions of children aged <5 years, as well as pregnant and lactating women globally, especially in humanitarian settings. Although cash plus interventions - cash or food transfers combined with complementary components - are widely implemented, evidence remains limited on which combinations and durations are most effective at preventing acute malnutrition. Methods: We conducted a three-arm cluster-randomise…
Levels and determinants of child wasting relapse
Background: Understanding the rates and determinants of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) relapse is crucial for stakeholders in Somalia, where evidence is limited. This study aimed to assess SAM relapse rates and associated risk factors among children discharged from outpatient therapeutic programmes (OTP) in the Bay and Hiran regions of Somalia. Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study of 160 children aged 7-53 months discharged as recove…
Design and methodology of a cluster-randomised controlled trial on cash plus interventions for preventing child wasting in Somalia
Background: Somalia is a conflict, flood, and drought prone country with high rates of food insecurity and child wasting. Save the Children partnered with Johns Hopkins University to study the most effective and cost-effective combinations of assistance to prevent acute malnutrition among pregnant and lactating women (PLW) and children under five (CU5) in a six-month humanitarian programme. This study implemented an cluster-randomised controlled …
Understanding the medical challenges for the diagnosis and treatment of bilateral pitting oedema in children
Severely malnourished patients can present with bilateral pitting oedema, which is a common sign of Kwashiorkor. However, bilateral pitting oedema can also be an expression of other pathologies. In Mali and DRC, the number of children presenting with bilateral pitting oedema at MSF (Médecins Sans Frontiers/Doctors Without Borders) hospitals are up to 30% (Mali) and 49% (DRC) higher than in other countries, however, the reasons underlying this tre…
Analysing concordance between Muac, Muacz, and WHZ in diagnosing acute malnutrition among children under five in Somalia
Background: Acute malnutrition, also known as wasting, affected an estimated 45 million children under five (CU5) globally in 2023. Wasting is measured using a child's mid upper arm circumference (MUAC), weight-for-height z-score (WHZ), or nutritional oedema. In low-resource contexts, MUAC is often the only measurement used to regularly screen for malnutrition, but recent research suggests MUAC alone fails to diagnose 25-80% of WHZ-wasted childre…
How age and sex affect treatment outcomes for children with severe malnutrition
Age and sex influence the risk of childhood wasting. We aimed to determine if wasting treatment outcomes differ by age and sex in children under 5 years, enroled in therapeutic and supplementary feeding programmes. Utilising data from stage 1 of the ComPAS trial, we used logistic regression to assess the association between age, sex and wasting treatment outcomes (recovery, death, default, non-response, and transfer), modelling the likelihood of …
