Negative binomial generalized estimating equations were used to model associated health facility factors. RESULTS: Mean wait…

Malnutrition Among Children Younger Than 5 Years-Old in Conflict Zones of Chiapas, Mexico
We performed a cross-sectional, community-based survey, supplemented by interviews with community leaders in Chiapas, Mexico, to examine the prevalence and predictors of child malnutrition in regions affected by the Zapatista conflict. The prevalence rates of stunting, wasting, and underweight were 54.1%, 2.9%, and 20.3%, respectively, in 2666 children aged younger than 5 years. Stunting was associated with indigenous ethnicity, poverty, region o…
