Comparative quantification of health risks: Conceptual framework and methodological issues (2003, background): “Consider for example infant and child mortality due to acute respiratory infections (ARI), which is especially high among malnourished children, as a result of exposure to indoor smoke from solid fuels [66,67].”
Malnutrition and health in developing countries (2005, background): “High immunization coverage and early and correct management of cases of infectious disease play major roles in the prevention and treatment of protein–energy malnutrition.(13) In poor communities, the treatment of helminth infections 3 times per year improved child growth and development.”
Undernutrition as an underlying cause of child deaths associated with diarrhea, pneumonia, malaria, and measles. (2004, background): “Originally, a survey of the published literature was conducted to gather data to estimate the relation between anthropometric status and cause-specific mortality (5).”
