more likely to be associated with a 0.171-unit decrease
in stunting (p = 0.004); a 0.162-unit decrease in wasting
(p < 0.001); and a 0.264-unit decrease in underweight (p <
0.001). An increase of one unit in the aggregate country
governance indicator correlated with a 9.552-unit decrease
in underweight (p = 0.009). There was no significant decrease
for the prevalence of undernutrition over years
among LAMICs after adjusting for key confounders.
The associations between presence of a nutrition policy
to address undernutrition in effect and magnitudes
of each type of undernutrition over time did not reach a
statistically significant level. However, an increase from
