The co ‐occurrence of anaemia and stunting in young children
Abstract Anaemia and stunting are prevalent nutritional problems among children of low‐income countries that have profound effects on development, morbidity, and mortality. Many use a single conceptual framework to identify the basic determinants of these and other forms of malnutrition. One would expect that problems with matching underlying determinants should co‐occur in affected individuals to a greater degree than by chance. In 2 populations of children—ages 6–18 months in Bihar, India, (n = 5,664) and 6–36 months in Lambayeque, Peru (n = 688)—we measured the frequency of the co‐occurrence of anaem...

The effect of Baby ‐friendly status on exclusive breastfeeding in U.S. hospitals

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between population demographics and the Baby‐friendly (BF) hospital designation on EBF rates in hospitals throughout the United States. We obtained EBF rates from 121 BF hospitals and 1,608 hospitals without the BF designation. Demographic variables were computed ...
