dc.description | Childhood malnutrition is a public health problem in our country. In Ecuador, the rate of child malnutrition is 19%, with an even higher prevalence in rural areas, such as the inter-Andean region, where it affects 32% of children, mainly in poor families. The study was carried out at the Cachisagua health center in Guaranda between October 2024 and May 2025 and investigated the diseases associated with chronic malnutrition in children under 2 years of age. Iron deficiency anemia was found to be the main disease developed by children with ICD, followed by respiratory diseases, all related to insufficient nutrient intake and inadequate breastfeeding. The study also analyzed how the socioeconomic context contributes to malnutrition, with families with an income greater than a unified basic salary having fewer malnourished children (12.5%), and families with income less than a unified basic salary presenting greater malnutrition (21.52%), in addition to access to safe water, with families without access to this good presenting 80% of cases of malnutrition and families with access to safe water only 20% of cases. cases. A direct relationship was also found between overcrowding and ICD, given that families where more than 5 people live, malnutrition has a prevalence of 26.8% more than smaller families. | es_ES |

dc.description.abstract | La desnutrición infantil es un problema de salud pública, en nuestro país. En Ecuador, la tasa de desnutrición infantil es del 19%, con una prevalencia aún mayor en áreas rurales, como la región interandina, donde afecta al 32% de los niños, principalmente en familias pobres. El estudio fue realizado en el centro de salud Cachisagua en Guaranda entre octubre de 2024 y mayo de 2025 investigó las enfermedades asociadas a la desnutrición crónica en niños menores de 2 años. Se encontró que la anemia ferropénica era la principal enfermedad desarrollada por niños con DCI, seguida de enfermedades respiratorias, todas relacionadas con una ingesta insuficiente de nutrientes y una lactancia materna inadecuada. El estudio también analizó cómo el contexto socioeconómico contribuye a la desnutrición, siendo que las familias con un ingreso mayor a un sueldo básico unificado tienen menos niños desnutridos (12,5%), y las familias con ingresos menores a un sueldo básico unificado presentan mayor desnutrición (21,52%), además del acceso a agua segura siendo que las familias sin acceso a este bien presentan un 80% de casos de desnutrición y las familias con acceso a agua segura tan solo un 20% de casos. Se encontró además una relación directa entre el hacinamiento y el DCI, dado que las familias donde habitan más de 5 personas la desnutrición presentan una prevalencia del 26.8% mas que familias menos numerosas. | es_ES |
