1978
Froozani, M.D.
Methods and findings are reported from a study which measured weight, height and arm circumference to detect protein calorie malnutrition in a group of low income children aged 1 to 24 months who were attending the Pahlavi Public Health Center in Esfahan. The values of correlation coefficient (r) between mid upper arm circumference (MAC) for age and weight, length, head and chest circumferences show that the correlation of MAC for age is better with weight for age than other parameters.
