There have been a number of reports on the general pathology of malnutrition, especially kwashiorkor, which have included careful studies of the exocrine glands (Davies, 1948; Jelliffe, Bras and Stuart, 1954; Tejada, 1955). However, little is known of the pathology of the endocrine glands in this condition. Clinical studies of malnourished adults show that they may have pigmentation of the skin...

[1] We present results from a new medium depth (136 metres) ice core drilled in a high accumulation site (73.59 S, 70.36 W) on the south-western Antarctic Peninsula during 2007. The Gomez record reveals a doubling of accumulation since the 1850s, from a decadal average of 0.49 mweq y 1 in 1855–1864 to 1.10 mweq y 1 in 1997–2006, with acceleration in recent decades. Comparison with published acc...

Failure to thrive (FTT) is a perplexing disorder commonly seen by primary care physicians. Identification of FTT and an assessment of severity of the undernutrition are important to identify children at risk, and to provide appropriate intervention for preventing malnutrition and developing sequela. One of different anthropometric methods for categorizing undernutrition in childhood is Waterlow...
