More than half of the world’s diseases can be attributed to unbalanced energy intake and to deficiencies in vitamins and mineral nutrients [1-3]. Developing countries pay the major tribute of it as they face serious health problems due to undernourishment of children and pregnant women [3]. Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM), also known as proteincalorie malnutrition, is currently the most serio...
Aflatoxins are food contaminants usually associated with hepatitis, immunodepression, impairment of fertility and cancer. The present work was to determine the presence of aflatoxins in eggs, milk, urine, and blood samples that were collected from various sources and periods; and hepatitis B virus antigen in blood samples. Aflatoxin was found in eggs (45.2%), cow raw milk (15.9%), breast milk (...
Malnutrition below 5 years remains a global health issue. Severe acute malnutrition (SAM) presents in childhood as oedematous (kwashiorkor) or nonoedematous (marasmic) forms, with unknown long-term cardiovascular consequences. We hypothesized that cardiovascular structure and function would be poorer in SAM survivors than unexposed controls. We studied 116 adult SAM survivors, 54 after marasmus...
In recent years several detailed descriptions have been published of the morbid anatomical findings in malnourished children. Waterlow (1948) reported fatty liver disease from the West Indies and suggested that the children died from hepatic failure, while Hill (1951), working in the same area, described the condition of serous hepatosis. Davies in discussing kwashiorkor in Uganda (Trowell, Dav...
Abnormalities of lipid metabolism in kwashiorkor are well documented. In Uganda, as elsewhere, frequent findings are fatty infiltration of the liver and a reduction in the quantity of serum lipids (Schwarz & Dean, 1957). The concentrations of both the aand /I-lipoproteins are also reduced, the /3-lipoproteins possibly more so (Cravioto, De la Pena & Burgos, 1959; Monckeberg, 1968). Lipids, in p...
