Abstract:

SummarySerum alpha2 HS‐glycoprotein levels were studied, using the single‐radial immunodiffusion method, in 39 severely malnourished children (22 kwashiorkor, 17 marasmus) of whom 15 (8 kwashiorkor, 7 marasmus) were infected and 24 (14 kwashiorkor, 10 marasmus) had no signs of infection. Thirty‐two well‐nourished children, 16 of whom were infected, served as controls. The uninfected controls had higher serum alpha2 HS‐glycoprotein levels than the uninfected kwashiorkor (82.0 ± 14.7; 57.0 ± 15.8; p < 0.001) and marasmic children (82.0 ± 14.7; 45.0 ± 13.9; p < 0.001).

Abstract:

<strong>Background:</strong> Malnutrition is a widespread problem, affecting the global population at some life stage. Malnutrition includes both undernutrition (wasting, stunting, underweight, and mineral- and vitamin-related malnutrition) and over nutrition (overweight, obesity, and diet-related noncommunicable diseases. The best-targeted age for addressing malnutrition is the first 1000 days of life as this window period is ideal for intervention implementation and tracking for the improvement of child growth and development. Therefore, it was a genuine necessity to find out the burden

Abstract:

Marasmus is a severe form of protein-calorie malnutrition characterized by the depletion of fat stores, muscle wasting, and the lack of edema. In developed countries, marasmus is often the result of anorexia nervosa. Abnormal transaminases with liver synthetic dysfunction have rarely been reported with anorexia nervosa. To our knowledge, we report the first detailed case of acute liver injury with severe coagulopathy (INR>1.5) in a patient with marasmus due to self-induced calorie restriction caused by a somatic delusional disorder.

Background. The relationship between protein energy malnutrition (PEM) and malaria is controversial.

PEM is differentiated into three subgroups: kwashiorkor (marked protein deficiency), marasmus (calorie deficiency), and kwashiorkor/marasmus. None of the studies concerning PEM and malaria seem to distinguish between these subgroups, and significant differences in susceptibility to malaria between these subgroups may have been overlooked.

We report an analysis of the impact of HIV infection on infectious disease, clinical presentation, and mortality in Zambian children with persistent diarrhea and malnutrition.MethodsTwo hundred children (94 boys and 106 girls, 6–24 months old) were examined on admission to the malnutrition ward of University Teaching Hospital in Lusaka, Zambia. There was then 1 month of follow‐up.ResultsAntibodies to HIV

Abstract:

Background: The management of malnutrition depends on its severity. While mild to moderate malnutrition can be managed on ambulatory basis, severe malnutrition is preferably managed in hospital settings. This study was undertaken to find the magnitude of SAM in children (6 months to 60 months) and to compare the UNICEF specified therapeutic food (F-75/F-100) with traditionally used home based food in treatment of severe acute malnutrition.Methods: This prospective and observational study was conducted in the Department of Pediatrics of G.S.V.M.

Abstract:

Food-based strategies are currently in practice to meet the challenges of micronutrient malnutrition in malnourished children. World Health Organization (WHO) proposed a dietary regimen for such therapy. In resource limited country like Bangladesh, it is difficult to implement the WHO protocol properly. Current study aimed at evaluating the locally adapted peanut based Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH) dietary formula in the treatment of nutritional marasmus. The trial was conducted in Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH) from July 2009 to June 2010. Sixty marasmic patients (based on WHO

Abstract:

Pemphigus vegetans is a clinical variant of pemphigus vulgaris, accounting for 1–2% of all very rare pemphigus cases in children. The involvement of the oral mucosa in this disease is usually accompanied by severe pain that aggravates the patient’s malnourished condition. Conversely, malnutrition may also reduce vulnerability towards autoimmune diseases. Although pemphigus vegetans has never been reported to develop in a child with marasmus before, we encountered a case of pemphigus vegetans in a severely malnourished patient.
