Does Malnutrition Have a Genetic Component?

Annual review of genomics and human genetics - 31 Aug 2018

Duggal Priya, Petri William A

Abstract excerpt

Malnutrition is a complex disorder, defined by an imbalance, excess, or deficiency of nutrient intake. The visible signs of malnutrition are stunted growth and wasting, but malnourished children are also more likely to have delays in neurocognitive development, vaccine failure, and susceptibility to infection. Despite malnutrition being a major global health problem, we do not yet understand the pathogenesis of...
