Breastfeeding modifies the impact of diarrhoeal disease on relative weight: A longitudinal analysis of 2–12 month‐old Filipino infants
Undernutrition and diarrhoeal disease are major causes of infant mortality. We investigated the combined roles of breastfeeding and diarrhoea on infant size in 2940 infants from the Cebu Longitudinal Health and Nutrition Survey. The study aimed to assess whether breastfeeding status modified the deficits associated with diarrhoeal disease. The primary exposures were combinations of current breastfeeding status (yes/no), the presence of diarrhoeal…
The interactive association of dietary diversity scores and breast-feeding status with weight and length in Filipino infants aged 6–24 months
Objective To assess how breast-feeding and dietary diversity relate to infant length-for-age Z -score (LAZ) and weight-for-age Z -score (WAZ). Design Breast-feeding, dietary and anthropometric data from the Cebu Longitudinal Health and Nutrition Survey were analysed using sex-stratified fixed-effects longitudinal regression models. A dietary diversity score (DDS) based on seven food groups was classified as low ( Setting Philippines. Subjects Inf…
