%X The study aimed at assessing stunting, wasting and breast-feeding as correlates of body composition in Cambodian children. As part of a nutrition trial (ISRCTN19918531), fat mass (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM) were measured using H-2 dilution at 6 and 15 months of age. Of 419 infants enrolled, 98 % were breastfed, 15 % stunted and 4 % wasted at 6 months. At 15 months, 78 % were breastfed, 24 % stunted and 11 % wasted. Those not breastfed had lower FMI at 6 months but not at 15 months. Stunted children had lower FM at 6 months and lower FFM at 6 and 15 months compared with children with length-for-age z >= 0. Stunting was not associated with height-adjusted indexes fat mass index (FMI) or fat-free mass index (FFMI). Wasted children had lower FM, FFM, FMI and FFMI at 6 and 15 months compared with children with weight-for-length z (WLZ) >= 0. Generally, FFM and FFMI deficits increased with age, whereas FM and FMI deficits decreased, reflecting interactions between age and WLZ. For example, the FFM deficits were -0 center dot 99 (95 % CI -1 center dot 26, -0 center dot 72) kg at 6 months and -1 center dot 44 (95 % CI -1 center dot 69; -1 center dot 19) kg at 15 months (interaction, P<0 center dot 05), while the FMI deficits were -2 center dot 12 (95 % CI -2 center dot 53, -1 center dot 72) kg/m(2) at 6 months and -1 center dot 32 (95 % CI -1 center dot 77, -0 center dot 87) kg/m(2) at 15 months (interaction, P<0 center dot 05). This indicates that undernourished children preserve body fat at the detriment of fat-free tissue, which may have long-term consequences for health and working capacity.
