Aberrant One-Carbon Metabolism and Ancestral Genetics Underlie Edematous Severe Acute Malnutrition

2025-06-29

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Severe acute malnutrition (SAM) contributes to the death of millions of children under age five annually. SAM is clinically classified as non-edematous SAM (NESAM) or the more severe edematous SAM (ESAM), which is more common in east-central Africa and the Caribbean. The reason some children develop ESAM while others develop NESAM remains unclear; however, recent studies have identified...
