Overview

Cross-sectional study reveals that nutritional status significantly impacts cognitive function in adolescent girls, indicating a need for targeted interventions.

Key Points

  • Nutritional status significantly influences cognitive function scores in adolescent girls from underprivileged communities.
  • Girls with chronic energy deficiency and stunting had markedly lower cognitive scores compared to their counterparts.
  • Iron-folic acid intake was linked to improved cognitive performance among adolescent girls.
  • Multivariate regression identified key predictors of cognitive function, including BMI-for-age and height-for-age z-scores.
