Although cyclically embraced as a promising   alternative for children in foster care, there has   been growing concern about its impact on children,   especially the young ones below the age of six   years.     This study determined the impact of living   conditions on infant feeding and growth patterns for   such young children in Lusaka Urban.     Evidence from the study sampled of 280 young   children showed that the impact of living conditions   on child survival prospects was only significantly   associated with one out of the five child   development outcomes investigated, namely: child   feeding pattern for the first six months of life.   Young children who were under residential care were   more likely to be appropriately fed than those who   were home-based (RR = 0.80, 95 % CI 0.66, 0.96).     In essence,intensification of feeding counseling and   integrated growth monitoring promotion were required   for caregivers under both modes of care, but more so   for children who were home-based.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783844387476\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeeding and Growth Patterns for Young Children Aged below Six Year: a Retrospective Cohort Study of Lusaka Urban, Zambia\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783844387476","offer_id":39471195750493,"sku":"9783844387476","price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/e61159b7-d3df-4327-a16c-827834c5fbfa.jpg?v=1758345802","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/impact-of-living-conditions-on-child-development-pathways-von-francis-mbilima","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
