A growth survey of four groups of Nepali children from birth to 12 years was undertaken and the growth patterns related to diet. The patterns are those of children suffering from malnutrition in the second and third year and not those of a genetically small race. Diet histories showed inadequacies of diet, mostly preventable, occurring during the same period. Privileged children within the groups showed a different pattern and a significantly better growth.
对四组尼泊尔儿童从出生到12岁进行了生长发育调查,并研究了与饮食相关的生长模式。这些模式是第二年和第三年患有营养不良儿童的模式,而不是遗传上身材矮小种族儿童的模式。饮食史表明,在同一时期存在饮食不足的情况,且大多是可以预防的。各组中的特权儿童表现出不同的模式,生长情况明显更好。
