Individual, household and national factors associated with iron, vitamin A and zinc deficiencies among children aged 6–59 months in Nepal
Iron, vitamin A and zinc deficiencies are the top three micronutrients contributing to disability-adjusted life years globally. The study assessed the factors associated with iron, vitamin A, and Zinc deficiencies among Nepalese children (n = 1709) aged 6-59 months using data from the 2016 Nepal National Micronutrient Status Survey. The following cut-off points were applied: iron deficiency [ferritin 8.3 mg/L], vitamin A deficiency (retinol-bindi…
Population-attributable risk estimates for factors associated with inappropriate complementary feeding practices in The Gambia

Design The study examined the first and most recent Demographic and Health Survey of The Gambia (GDHS 2013). The four complementary feeding indicators recommended by the WHO were examined against a set of individual-, household- and community-level fact…
