Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Child growth is internationally recognized as the best global indicator of physical well-being in children because poor feeding practices-both in quantity and quality-and infections, or more often a combination of the two, are major factors that affect physical growth and mental development in children. The most important measurements needed for growth assessment are recumbent length or height, weight and head circumference. These fundamental anthropometric measures should be obtained and interpreted at each well child visit, and are typically sufficient for growth assessment.
In this study, the prevalence of anemia and growth of infants admitted with acute gastroenteritis at Assiut University Children Hospital will be assessed. Anemia is a global public health problem, with important consequences for human health and the social and economic development of each nation. It results from single or multiple causes that act simultaneously, influencing children's health, their cognitive and physical development, and immunity, increasing the risk of infections and infant mortality.
