A total of 110 households having 6 to 59 months aged children was selected by simple random method from ten rural communities of three Upazila of Sylhet during September 2019 to February 2020. Descriptive statistics were used to assess the WASH knowledge &amp; practice and multivariate chi-square analyses were performed to assess associations among diseases &amp; nutritional status with WASH following a structured questionnaire. The study found a significant association of WASH with childhood disease and nutritional status, and 65% of children were found to be in a diseased state and 35% of children were found to be in a disease-free state within the last six months. The findings sketched that mother with poor wash knowledge and practice was at greater risk for disease outbreaks, disease frequency and duration. The highest incidence of diarrhea was 17% in children aged 12 to 23 months. Significant effect of WASH was also found in children nutrition status, that was reflected in the ratio of stunted, underweight and wasted children.

Malnutrition among under-five children is a major public health problem all around the world. About more than 30% of the malnutrition world-wide is prevalent in southern Asia, a significant proportion of which is contributed by India. It is well known that malnutrition is frequently a part of a vicious cycle that includes poverty and infections, which can last a life-time and may also affect the next generations. This study aims to assess the nutritional status of children less than 5 years in a semi-urban area of Tamil Nadu using a composite index of anthropometric failure. A cross-sectional community-based study was undertaken among 168 children and anthropometric measurements were taken. Using conventional Z score indicators, 22.62% of the children were found to be stunted, 43.45% of the children were underweight and wasting was found in 45.83% of the children. Whereas using CIAF, the results were found to be 38.69% (no failure), 11.90% (Only wasting), 23.21% (Wasting and underweight), 11.31% (Wasting, underweight and Stunting), 6.55% (Stunting and underweight) 5.36% (Only stunting) and 2.98% (Only underweight). There was an unacceptably high prevalence of malnutrition among under-five children. Therefore, using CIAF showed better classification of undernutrition than conventional indicators. Also, health institutions at all levels should integrate nutrition as a health component and there is a need to educate the parents to provide age-appropriate energy-rich, locally available and nutritionally balanced food items. Accelerating the reduction in under-5 mortality is possible by expanding effective preventive and curative interventions that target the main causes of undernutrition. This will, in the long run, help in making this nation healthier, stronger, and more prosperous.

Abstract Objectives Malnutrition is a major public health challenge in developing countries and as such the nutritional status of children serve as an indicator to rate the overall well-being of a society. In this study, we assessed the nutritional status of under-five children attending Dalhatu Araf Specialist Hospital, Lafia, Nigeria. Methods After ethical clearance, 165 under five children were randomly recruited into the study. The socio-demographic and nutritional information of the children and mother were obtained using structured questionnaires. Anthropometric assessment was done on each child and blood samples analyzed using standard biochemical techniques. The data obtained were statistically analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20. Results Out of the 165 children recruited for this study, 51.5% were males. 41.2% of the children showed prevalence of Global Malnutrition, 15.8% and 25.5% indicated moderate acute malnutrition (MAM) and Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) respectively. 66.1% of the children had Mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) measures in the normal range of 12.5–14.6 cm. There is a significant relationship between nutritional knowledge of the mother, socioeconomic status, child feeding practices, and the nutritional status of their children (P &lt; 0.05). The biochemical parameters studied reported that average PCV (33.32 ± 4.49) and total protein (34.53 ± 13.26 g/L) were lower than the normal range, glucose (4.52 ± 0.97 mmol/L) and Calcium (2.14 ± 0.25 mmol/L) were within the normal range and Albumin (64.16 ± 16.87 g/L) was above the normal range. Conclusions This study has successfully revealed the nutritional status of under five years children in Nasarawa State, Nigeria. Our findings have critical implications for intervention initiatives among children in Nigeria. Funding Sources Self funded.
