Among children with weight-for-height Z-scores of \u22124 and \u22123, 103 (27.3%) had oedematous malnutrition. There were 131 (34.8%) children with malaria parasites, 33 (8.7%) with pyuria and 24 (6.3%) with intestinal parasites. The recovery rate was 89.1%. The case fatality rate was 3.7%. Mortality was significantly increased with diarrhoea and dermatoses. There were no significant differences in the median of age (17.5\u00a0months [IQR 6\u221224] vs 18 [6\u221224], p = 0.595), MUAC (110\u00a0mm [IQR 104\u2013111] vs 110 [100\u2013111], p = 0.741) or
