Objective To assess ethnicity- and age-modified associations between mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) and mortality in Nepalese children and whether sociodemographic factors explain these associations. Design Secondary data analysis of children followed until 3 years of age. Estimated mortality hazard ratios (HR) for MUAC Setting Sarlahi, Nepal (21 October 2001–2 February 2006). Subjects Children ( n 48 492) enrolled in the Nepal Nutrition Intervention Project, Sarlahi-4. Results Among children aged ≥6 months, MUAC Conclusions Among older children, MUAC
