This results in growth restriction resulting in stunting, wasting, underweight and last but not the least iron-deficiency anaemia. Nutritional needs are high during puberty which later leads to complications during pregnancy and its outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Materials and methods<\/jats:title>\n A field based cross-sectional study was carried out to assess the nutritional status of the girls and to determine the various factors responsible for undernutrition. After clearance from the Institution Ethical Committee (IEC) and permission from Child Development Programme Officer (CDPO), the study was conducted in the anganwadi centres (AWC) of urban slums in the field practice area of the Department of Community Medicine from the 1st October 2014 to the 31st October 2016. All the adolescent girls enlisted in the seven anganwadi centres were included as study subjects with their consent. A pre-designed, pre-tested and semi-structured questionnaire was used to collect data on following sections. (a) socio-demographic profile and (b) nutritional status. Dietary intake was taken using the 24-h recall method. Anthropometry was measured and haemoglobin (Hb) was estimated. SPSS version 21 was used for descriptive and analytic statistics.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n Among the 160 girls 98(61.3%), 69(43.1%), 53(33.1%) were underweight, stunted and wasted, respectively. Anaemia was present among 144(90%) of the girls.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n Strict monitoring of weekly iron and folic acid supplementation (WIFS) as well as nutrition education are essential measures to solve the problem of undernutrition among adolescent girls.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1515\/ijamh-2019-0208","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,26]],"date-time":"2020-05-26T11:58:28Z","timestamp":1590494308000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Study of epidemiological determinants of undernutrition among adolescent girls in urban slums of Berhampur, Odisha: a cross-sectional study"],"prefix":"10.1515","volume":"34","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3895-1042","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sambedana","family":"Mohanty","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Community Medicine, IMS and SUM Hospital , Bhubaneswar, Odisha , India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Manasee","family":"Panda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Community Medicine, Bhima Bhoi Medical College , Balangir, Odisha , India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"374","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,4,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025112723595768633_j_ijamh-2019-0208_ref_001","unstructured":"World Health Organization.
