International consensus recommendations for identifying malnutrition in children with neurological impairment

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Children with neurological impairment (CNI) are at increased risk of malnutrition because of functional, medical, and socioeconomic challenges. However, difficulties in obtaining reliable anthropometric measurements and differences in body composition limit the usefulness of conventional nutritional indicators.

Associations between prior wasting malnutrition and indices of insulin secretion and sensitivity among six cohorts from Asia and Africa: The SAMPA study

Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims The role of prior wasting malnutrition (PM) in determining insulin sensitivity and secretion in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) remains unclear. We investigated associations of insulin indices with PM and whether these were modified by current body mass index (BMI).
