highly significantP = 9.5e-06
When malnourished children were defined as either stunted or anemic, the association between these taxa was highly significant ( n = 196, P = 9.5e-06, rho = 0.31), while the slight trend seen in nonstunted children disappeared entirely in children who were neither stunted nor anemic ( n = 112, P = 0.9925, rho = −0.001).
