Drugs and Biologics

Drugs and Important Biological Agents (IBA) related to Child Nutrition Disorders:

1.	MicronutrientsIBA 01/01/2010 - "This together with the improvement in micronutrients could provide the basis of a sustainable and broadly comprehensive solution to child malnutrition in many African countries." 03/01/2015 - "In partnership with Valid International, the World Food Programme, and the Micronutrient Initiative, the International Atomic Energy Agency hosted the International Symposium on Understanding Moderate Malnutrition in Children for Effective Interventions in Vienna, Austria, 26-29 May 2014. " 02/01/2014 - "The purpose of this paper is to fill that gap and provide policymakers, program managers, and readers interested in nutrition issues in Haiti with information on (1) the trends and determinants of infant and young child feeding and food practices; (2) micronutrient deficiencies among children and women; (3) the status of severe acute malnutrition in children; (4) associations among women's empowerment, access to health care, water, and sanitation and child nutrition; (5) the current community-based early child care and nutrition initiatives; and (6) the status of nutrition governance in the country. " 06/01/2011 - "Fighting child malnutrition in Africa through the use of micronutrient supplements." 01/01/2010 - "Low dietary diversity during the period prior to major food price increases indicates potential risk for worsening of micronutrient deficiencies and child malnutrition in Bangladesh."
2.	SodiumIBA 08/01/1992 - " The sodium deficit is 9-17 mmol/kg and the potassium deficit is 3-15 mmol/kg. Early feeding after no more than 8 hours of fasting is currently considered more effective in preventing malnutrition in children with diarrhea and dehydration. "
3.	PotassiumIBA 08/01/1992 - " The sodium deficit is 9-17 mmol/kg and the potassium deficit is 3-15 mmol/kg. Early feeding after no more than 8 hours of fasting is currently considered more effective in preventing malnutrition in children with diarrhea and dehydration. "
4.	Vitamin A (Retinol)FDA LinkGeneric 05/01/2007 - "Although a lack of access to other public health interventions and demographic factors may also contribute to the rate of malnutrition in children missed by the vitamin A capsule program, it is likely that increased coverage of vitamin A supplementation would help to maximize the benefits for child survival." 07/01/2001 - "[Effects of vitamin A supplementation on nutritional markers on the follow-up of malnutrition in children]." 09/01/2004 - "To counter child malnutrition, mothers are encouraged to breastfeed to ensure that their children receive adequate macro- and micronutrients, including vitamin A. " 03/01/1987 - "To study the frequency of protein-caloric malnutrition in children (n = 16) with malignant diseases, we measured serum-albumin, -transferrin, -prealbumin and -retinol-binding protein (Radial immunodiffusion) before treatment was started. "
5.	GhrelinIBA 08/01/2008 - "Although this observation suggests that ghrelin helps to fight malnutrition in children, it is obvious that further studies are needed to clarify the exact pathogenetic mechanism regarding this condition."
6.	LeptinIBA 12/01/2003 - "In conclusion, the results of this study confirm the presence of high circulating plasma leptin levels, which may be one of the many factors involved in the pathogenesis of the malnutrition in children on hemodialysis."
7.	Transferrin (beta 2 Transferrin)IBA 03/01/1987 - "To study the frequency of protein-caloric malnutrition in children (n = 16) with malignant diseases, we measured serum-albumin, -transferrin, -prealbumin and -retinol-binding protein (Radial immunodiffusion) before treatment was started. "
8.	Serum AlbuminIBA 03/01/1987 - "To study the frequency of protein-caloric malnutrition in children (n = 16) with malignant diseases, we measured serum-albumin, -transferrin, -prealbumin and -retinol-binding protein (Radial immunodiffusion) before treatment was started. "
9.	Proteins (Proteins, Gene)IBA 08/01/1952 - "[Studies on malnutrition in children; recuperation use of proteins and vegetal and animal proteins; studies on three comparative experiences]."
10.	Prealbumin (Transthyretin)IBA 03/01/1987 - "To study the frequency of protein-caloric malnutrition in children (n = 16) with malignant diseases, we measured serum-albumin, -transferrin, -prealbumin and -retinol-binding protein (Radial immunodiffusion) before treatment was started. "

Therapies and Procedures

1.	Prenatal Care 09/01/2009 - "Reducing child malnutrition requires nutritious food, breastfeeding, improved hygiene, health services, and (prenatal) care. " 03/01/2014 - "To examine the effect of prenatal care (PNC) on the level and distribution of child stunting in three Andean countries-Bolivia, Colombia, and Peru-where expanding access to such care has been an explicit policy intervention to tackle child malnutrition in utero and during early childhood. " 03/01/2014 - "Child malnutrition and prenatal care: evidence from three Latin American countries."
2.	Renal Dialysis (Hemodialysis) 05/01/2009 - "This article is a state-of-the-art review of malnutrition in children receiving maintenance hemodialysis, with special focus on outcome, nPCR and IDPN." 12/01/2003 - "In conclusion, the results of this study confirm the presence of high circulating plasma leptin levels, which may be one of the many factors involved in the pathogenesis of the malnutrition in children on hemodialysis."
3.	Liver Transplantation 07/01/1992 - "The nature of malnutrition in children with end-stage liver disease awaiting orthotopic liver transplantation." 10/01/1991 - "Malnutrition in children with chronic liver disease accepted for liver transplantation: clinical profile and effect on outcome."

"
5.	Peritoneal Dialysis 07/01/2006 - "The anthropometry-bioimpedance analysis-nutrition (ABN) score is a recently proposed objective method of assessing malnutrition in children on chronic peritoneal dialysis (CPD) that uses nine parameters based on anthropometry, skinfold thickness and bioimpedance analysis. " 07/01/2002 - "Prevalence of protein malnutrition in children maintained on peritoneal dialysis."
