Adolescent Girls’ Nutritional Status and Knowledge, Beliefs, Practices, and Access to Services: An Assessment to Guide Intervention Design in Nepal

PMCID: PMC7394515  PMID: 32760876

Corrigendum for Cunningham et al. Adolescent Girls’ Nutritional Status and Knowledge, Beliefs, Practices, and Access to Services: An Assessment to Guide Intervention Design in Nepal. Curr Dev Nutr 2020;4(7):nzaa094, https://doi.org/10.1093/cdn/nzaa094

Error: The finding that anemia is highest in adolescent mothers is consistent with a recently published study of predictors of adolescent anemia in Nepal, using Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey 2016 data, which also found younger age to be associated with reduced odds of anemia (28)

Correct: The finding that anemia is highest in adolescent mothers is consistent with a recently published study of predictors of adolescent anemia in Nepal, using the Nepal National Micronutrient Status Survey 2016 data, which also found younger age to be associated with reduced odds of anemia (28)

Explanation: In short, rather than mentioning the “MICS 2016 data” we should have noted the “Nepal National Micronutrient Status Survey, 2016”.

The authors apologize for this error.
