Can Growth Monitoring and Promotion (GMP) improve child growth and development? A critical review of the epidemiological foundations por Leroy, Jef L., Larson, Leila M., Brander, Rebecca L., Frongillo, Edward A., Ruel, Marie T., Avula, Rasmi

“…GMP criteria are also not meaningful for screening individual children because they do not accurately predict (low Se, low Sp, and high RMSE) inadequate growth later in childhood. The same holds for growth indices which do not accurately identify individual children at risk of concurrent or later suboptimal development. …”
