Head Circumference Versus Length and Weight Deficits up to 2 Years of Age in Bangladesh
Infant undernutrition, defined by length- and weight-based indices, is common in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), but corresponding deficits in head size have received less attention. In a cohort of term newborns in Dhaka, Bangladesh, we compared the severity of deficits (vs. World Health Organization Growth Standards) in head circumference (HC), length and weight at birth and every 3 months until 2 years of age (n range across timepoint…
Complementary and alternative metrics for tracking population-level trends in child linear growth
Stunting prevalence is commonly used to track population-level child nutritional status. However, other metrics derived from anthropometric datasets may be used as alternatives to stunting or provide complementary perspectives on the status of linear growth faltering in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Data from 156 Demographic and Health Surveys in 63 LMICs (years 2000 to 2020) were used to generate 2 types of linear growth metrics: (i)…
