Nerve Ultrasound for Detecting Morphologic Changes in Malnourished Children Under 5 Years of Age: A Comparative Study of Nutritional Intervention Outcomes in Bangladesh
SAM children had smaller nerve CSA compared with wasted, stunted, and healthy children at specific nerve locations. These findings underscore the substantial impact of SAM on nerve morphology and the importance of early, sustained nutritional interventions, warranting further validation through animal models and large-scale studies in both children and adults.
