Temporal Trends in the Prevalence of Child Undernutrition in China From 2000 to 2019, With Projections of Prevalence in 2030: Cross-Sectional Analysis

Underweight is defined as a WAZ that is more than two SDs below the median of the WHO standards for child growth [18]. The prevalence of stunting, wasting, or underweight in children younger than 5 years in China was the main indicator used to reflect the health situation of children. Each prevalence is reported with 95% uncertainty interval (UI) according to the LBD algorithm.

Association of Child Growth Failure Indicators With Household Sanitation Practices in India (1998-2021): Spatiotemporal Observational Study

Underweight children have a weight-for-age z score of less than −2 SD from the reference population median. Children are considered severely underweight if their weight-for-age z score is less than −3 SD from the median [24]. Height and age SD, weight and height SD, and weight and age SD data were provided for these indicators. Anthropometric z scores were calculated based on the World Health Organization (WHO) growth standards of children, as guided by the DHS-7 Guide to DHS Statistics.
