Trends and Challenges in Child Growth Monitoring in India (2018-2023): A Systematic Review"

Abstract

Background: In India, malnutrition and growth faltering in children continue to be a major
public health challenge, with socioeconomic, dietary and environmental disparities being the
most prominent factors in certain regions. In order to make accurate diagnoses and plan
appropriate interventions, the development of appropriate assessment tools and growth
references based on regions would be highly valuable.
