Double burden of malnutrition in Guatemala: co-existence of childhood stunting and overweight and obesity within the household.
Review in European journal of clinical nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This paper defines the double burden of malnutrition as occurring when over- and undernutrition coexist within a household. It is most common in countries undergoing the nutrition transition where cheap and accessible food is often of poor quality. This brief narrative review examines four cycles of reports from the Epidemiological Health and Nutrition Surveillance System (SIVESNU, Spanish acronym) in Guatemala between 2015-2018/19, examining the following indicators: overall double burden of stunting among children aged ≤59 months and overweight or obesity among women aged 15-49 years in the same household, and individual stunting, overweight, and obesity by indigenous/non-indigenous ethnicity. The review also incorporates double burden prevalence in Guatemala from the literature since 1995. In 1995, the double burden prevalence was 13.4%, and negligible change occurred from 2000 to 2018/19 (18.2% and 17.6%, respectively). Individual level prevalences for stunting, overweight, and obesity were notable, with large disparities in stunting prevalence by ethnicity.
