1
We do not recommend the direct comparison of data from surveys using WFH and those using MUAC.
2
Therefore, this study aimed at defining gender and age-specific cut-offs to improve sensitivity of MUAC as an indicator of acute malnutrition.
3
International reference of MUAC cut-offs by age group and gender should be established to screen for acute malnutrition at the community level.
4
A different pair of observers independently measured the MUAC of each participant in the upright position on two occasions within 1 week.
5
Background: Mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) is used as an alternative measure for body mass index to determine thinness in older persons.
6
The present study examined the reproducibility of MUAC measurements in older persons, as well as the influence of different body positions and clothing.
7
Importantly, MUAC and WHZ identified different sub-groups of children with acute malnutrition, therefore these 2 indicators should be regarded as independent from each other.
8
Methods: To establish new age and gender-specific MUAC cut-offs, pooled data was obtained for 14,173 children from 5 surveys in Cambodia (2011-2013).
