Exposure to aflatoxins and fumonisins and linear growth of children in rural Ethiopia
Objective: We hypothesise that exposure to aflatoxins and fumonisins, measured in serum, alters protein synthesis, reducing serum protein and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), increasing inflammation and infection, leading to child’s linear growth failure. Design: Children 6–35 months, stratified by baseline stunting, were subsampled from an intervention trial on quality protein maize consumption and evaluated at two time-points. Setting: Blo…
Behavioural insights to support increased consumption of quality protein maize by young children
INTRODUCTION: Biofortified crops have tremendous potential to improve child nutrition. We tested whether complementing the distribution of quality protein maize (QPM) with a package of interventions informed by behavioural insights could support greater consumption of QPM by young children and translate into improved growth. METHODS: We conducted a cluster-randomised trial in Oromia, Ethiopia. Clusters of households with a child between 6 and 35 …
