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.

The need for revised standards for skinfold thickness in infancy [PDF]

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1998
Skinfold standards provide a useful indication of subcutaneous fat. To evaluate skinfold thickness of 252 Cambridge infants over the first 2 years of age, SD scores relative to the Tanner standards were calculated, taking account of skewness in the standards.

Maternal Overnutrition in Pregnancy Predicts Greater Body Mass Index Gains in Offspring by Early Midlife: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Maternal overnutrition during pregnancy predisposes children to increased adiposity later in life. This systematic review and meta‐analysis examined how this association persists into adulthood and whether it differs by sex. MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, and CENTRAL were searched for human studies published in English before May 2025.
