Prevalence and key determinants of the triple burden of childhood malnutrition in Southeast Asian countries: a systematic review and meta-analysis within an adapted socio-ecological framework.

The triple burden of malnutrition (TBM) is increasing globally, but significant evidence gaps exist regarding its burden and drivers among children in Southeast Asian (SEA) countries. We systematically searched four databases (PROSPERO-CRD42023420129) and Google Scholar through February 2024. We assessed stunting and overweight prevalence among children aged 0-18 years old across four SEA countries (Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam) from recent national surveys.

Prevalence, determinants, intervention strategies and current gaps in addressing childhood malnutrition in Vietnam: a systematic review.

Background: Childhood malnutrition in all forms is a major public health issue worldwide. This review systematically examined the prevalence and determinants and identify the potential interventions and current gap in addressing malnutrition including undernutrition, overnutrition and micronutrient deficiencies (MNDs) in Vietnamese children aged 0-18 years old.

Methods: Embase, Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science were systematically searched through June 2022 to identify relevant articles published within the past 25 years.

Evaluating the impacts of school garden-based programmes on diet and nutrition-related knowledge, attitudes and practices among the school children: a systematic review.

Background: Previous evidence suggests that school garden-based programmes (SGBP) may be a promising yet cost-effective intervention to improve children's knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) on healthy eating. This review aimed to summarise and evaluate the evidence available on the impacts of SGBP in addressing diet and nutrition-related KAP among school-aged children.

Methods: Five databases including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, Web of Science and Scopus were searched until February 2021.
