A cross-sectioned study was conducted at the Lefaragatha village of Bophuthatswana to document the prevalence and risk factors for malnutrition in children aged 0-5 years in June 1991. Fifty four households, in which there were children in the right age groups, were interviewed over three weeks. Of these children 14 (25.9%) were below the 3rd percentile of weight for age of the 1976 National Centre for Health Statistics standards; in the age group of 2 years and less, this figure was 28.6%, while in children older than 2 years the corresponding figure was 71.4%. Malnutrition was associated with a mother's consumption of alcohol and lack of resources such as water and an inappropriate staple diet. Education and income were not significant variables.
1991年6月，在博普塔茨瓦纳的莱法拉加萨村进行了一项横断面研究，以记录0至5岁儿童营养不良的患病率和风险因素。在三周内，对54户有适龄儿童的家庭进行了访谈。在这些儿童中，14名（25.9%）低于1976年国家卫生统计中心标准的年龄别体重第3百分位数；在2岁及以下年龄组中，这一数字为28.6%，而在2岁以上儿童中，相应数字为71.4%。营养不良与母亲饮酒以及缺乏水和不合适的主食等资源有关。教育和收入不是显著变量。
