Anemia and micronutrient status of women of childbearing age and children 6–59 months in the Democratic Republic of the Congo
Little is known about the micronutrient status of women and children in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, which is critical for the design of effective nutrition interventions. We recruited 744 mother-child pairs from South Kivu (SK) and Kongo Central (KC). We determined hemoglobin (Hb), serum z...
