Distributions of length/height-for-age from birth to 59 months: (A): Boys, (B): Girls. The 5 lines represent median (solid green line) and standard deviations (SD) from the median length/height-for-age provided by the World Health Organization Child Growth Standards: +/−3 SD (dotted gray line), +/−2 SD (dashed orange line) between median and +/−3 SD lines. Black circles: children without stunting in the severe food insecure group; black +: children with stunting in the severe food insecure group; red triangle: children without stunting in the non-severe food insecure group; red x: children with stunting in the non-severe food insecure group.
