Geospatial variation and risk factors for malnutrition among postpartum women in rural Bangladesh
Rising prevalences of overweight and obesity and the continued elevated prevalence of underweight in South Asia have contributed to the double burden of malnutrition. This study evaluates geospatial variation in nutritional status and assesses risk factors for poor nutritional status among postpartum women in rural northwestern Bangladesh. This analysis included postpartum women enrolled in the Protein Plus trial, a cluster-randomized controlled …
Assessing Urban-Rural Income Disparities in the USA
Income inequality in the US is a major quagmire that requires a multifaceted understanding of the difference between urban and rural regions. This study seeks to utilize predictive analytics and machine learning methodologies to help analyze these disparities in a thorough manner. The principal objective of this research was to design machine learning models that classify and analyze the urban-rural gap in income by employing a blend of demograph…
Household animal ownership is associated with infant animal source food consumption in Bangladesh
Context-specific research is needed on the relationship between household animal production and nutrition outcomes to inform programmes intervening in small-scale animal production. We examined associations between household animal/fishpond ownership and animal source food (ASF) consumption among 6- to 12-month-old infants enroled in the control arm of a cluster-randomised controlled trial in rural Bangladesh. We measured ASF consumption using a …
Different Features of Cholera in Malnourished and Non-Malnourished Children
Malnourished children are more prone to infectious diseases including severe diarrhea compared to non-malnourished children. However, data are scarce on differences in the presentation in such children. We aimed to identify clinical differentials among children with cholera with or without malnutrition. Data were extracted from the diarrheal disease surveillance system (DDSS) of Dhaka Hospital of International Centre for Diarrheal Disease Researc…
Impact evaluation of a community nutrition and livelihood program on child nutrition in rural Bangladesh
Given the high prevalence of child undernutrition in Bangladesh, multi-sectoral approaches involving livelihood promotion have potential to mitigate the burden of undernutrition. This study examined the impact of an economic development (ED) program providing poultry assets, gardening skills and saving training added to the Positive Deviant (PD)/Hearth program (PDH/ED), compared to PD/Hearth only (PDH). A total of 1029 children who attended PD/He…
Prenatal nutrition supplementation and growth biomarkers in preadolescent Bangladeshi children
Little is known about the usefulness of biomarkers to study the influence of prenatal nutrition supplementation in improving child growth. Anthropometry is not always straightforward to understand how nutrition might impact growth, especially in settings with high rates of malnutrition and infections. We examined the effects of prenatal supplementation on growth and growth biomarkers and the relationship between anthropometric measures and growth…
Influences on catch-up growth using relative versus absolute metrics
The study children demonstrated improved growth from 24 to 60 months of age, but only a subset had positive changes in HAD and WAD. The same environmental factors were associated with growth from 24 to 60 months regardless of metric used (change in HAZ or HAD, or WAZ and WAD)
Age differences in the impact of a Positive Deviance/Hearth programme on the nutritional status of children in rural Bangladesh
Objective: To examine the difference in the rehabilitation rate from underweight by child age at enrolment in the Positive Deviance (PD)/Hearth programme. Design: This secondary data analysis used programme monitoring records of underweight children aged 6–60 months attending a 2-week PD/Hearth session and followed up for 6 months from September 2018 to March 2019. Data were analysed using multilevel mixed-effect regression and Poisson regression…
Topical emollient therapy in the management of severe acute malnutrition in children under two
BACKGROUND: Topical emollient therapy can improve neonatal health and growth and potentially provides an additional avenue for augmenting the provision of nutrition to children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM). We hypothesised that topical treatment of hospitalised children with SAM using sunflower seed oil (SSO), in addition to standard-of-care for SAM, would improve skin barrier function and weight gain, reduce risk of infection, and accele…
Snack food consumption among Bangladeshi children, supplementary data from a large RCT
Childhood obesity has been associated with consumption of energy-dense foods such as caloric beverages and fast foods. Many low- and middle-income countries like Bangladesh are now experiencing a rising problem of noncommunicable diseases along with the long-standing problem of stunting and undernutrition. WASH Benefits Bangladesh was a large community-based cluster randomized controlled trial conducted in rural Bangladesh. Study clusters were ra…
Determining a global mid-upper arm circumference cut-off to assess underweight in adults (men and non-pregnant women)
Objective: To determine if a global mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) cut-off can be established to classify underweight in adults (men and non-pregnant women). Design: We conducted an individual participant data meta-analysis (IPDMA) to explore the sensitivity (SENS) and specificity (SPEC) of various MUAC cut-offs for identifying underweight among adults (defined as BMI 2 ). Measures of diagnostic accuracy were determined every 0·5 cm across MU…
Factors affecting low coverage of the vitamin A supplementation program among young children admitted in an urban diarrheal treatment facility in Bangladesh
BACKGROUND: Vitamin A deficiency (VAD) is one of the most prevalent micronutrient deficiencies in the world. About 2% of all deaths among children under five years of age (U-5) are attributable to VAD. Currently evidence-based knowledge is grossly lacking about the factors associated with low coverage of VAS. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to determine the factors affecting low coverage of the vitamin A supplementation program among the young childre…
Early childhood development and stunting
Information on the association between stunting and child development is limited from low-income settings including Bangladesh where 36% of children under- 5 are stunted. This study aimed to explore differences in early childhood development (ECD) between stunted (length-for-age z-score [LAZ] < -2) and nonstunted (LAZ ≥ -2) children in Bangladesh. Children (n = 265) aged 6-24 months who participated in the MAL-ED birth cohort study were evaluated…
Prevalence and risk factors of vitamin D insufficiency and deficiency among 6–24-month-old underweight and normal-weight children living in an urban slum of Bangladesh
Objective We quantified the prevalence of vitamin D status in 6–24-month-old underweight and normal-weight children and identified the socio-economic and dietary predictors for status. Design Cross-sectional, baseline data from a nutritional intervention study were analysed. Multinomial logistic regression was used to estimate the odds of being vitamin D deficient or insufficient with the reference being vitamin D sufficient. Setting Urban slum a…
Effects of psychosocial stimulation on improving home environment and child-rearing practices
Child-rearing practices of mothers of severely malnourished children and the quality of their home environment can be improved through community-based psychosocial stimulation with or without food supplementation. This may be of importance to promote child development
