The majority of patients were normally grown (187; 85.8%) but anthropometric data was missing for four patients. Sixteen patients were moderately stunted whilst 11 were severely stunted. Thirty one were moderately under-weight-for-age (UWFA) and nine were severely UWFA, whilst 12 patients were moderately and severely wasted, respectively. Although the majority of children were not stunted (87.3%), wasted (88.7%) or UWFA (81.3%), both stunting (p<0.0001) and being UWFA (p=0.041) appeared to be significant predictors of outcome on univariate analysis but could not be shown to be independently predictive of outcome on multivariate analysis.
