Physical growth and nutritional status of Tsimane' Amerindian children of lowland Bolivia
This study examines patterns of growth and nutritional status of indigenous Tsimane' children under 9 years of age (n = 199 boys and 210 girls), based on a cross‐sectional sample from 58 villages from the Beni Deparment of lowland Bolivia. Compared with US children, Tsimane' children are quite short, with linear growth tracking at or below the US 5th centile in both sexes. The prevalence of low height‐for‐age (“stunting;” HA Z‐scores ≤−2) is 52% …
Predictors of C‐reactive protein in Tsimane' 2 to 15 year‐olds in lowland Bolivia
Infectious disease is a major global determinant of child morbidity and mortality, and energetic investment in immune defenses (even in the absence of overt disease) is an important life‐history variable, with implications for human growth and development. This study uses a biomarker of immune activation (C‐reactive protein) to investigate an important aspect of child health among the Tsimane', a relatively isolated Amerindian population in lowla…
