Published: December 2023

This study aimed to assess the phenological profile and nutritional characteristics of the leaves of four different quinoa varieties. The researchers analyzed the chemical composition, total phenolic compounds (TPC), and antioxidant capacity (AC) of quinoa leaves at various stages of growth. Two varieties, Blanca Junín and Blanca Criolla, displayed similar phenological profiles, while Pasankalla and Salcedo had earlier flowering stages. The study found that the early stages of quinoa leaves contained higher levels of protein, moisture, ash, magnesium, TPC, and AC. In contrast, the late stages had higher amounts of carbohydrates, calcium, and crude fiber. The third phenological stage showed the highest protein content, with Pasankalla and Blanca Junín having 36.00 g/100g and 42.44 g/100g, respectively. Salcedo reached this protein content at the second phenological stage, with 38.25 g/100g. Quinoa leaves were also found to be rich in potassium, magnesium, and calcium, with Blanca Junín and Pasankalla having the highest calcium levels in the sixth phenological stage. The second phenological stage consistently yielded the highest levels of TPC and AC in all quinoa varieties. Overall, this study highlights the nutritional value of quinoa leaves and suggests that they could be a promising plant-based protein ingredient.

El objetivo de la investigación fue identificar cuáles son las especies del género Halomonas, con capacidad nitrificante, aisladas de sedimentos de criaderos de Litopenaeus vannamei provenientes de langostineras de Tumbes-Perú. A partir del sedimento de 3 criaderos de langostinos en tiempo de cosecha, se obtuvo una muestra representativa, a la cual se realizó un pre-enriquecimiento en Caldo Marino por 48 horas, luego se cultivó en Agar Marino, hasta la observación de colonias características del género Halomonas. Los cultivos obtenidos fueron identificados fenotípicamente a nivel de especie, para luego evaluar su capacidad nitrificante según la metodología de Griess-llosvay. Como resultados se obtuvo el aislamiento de 5 cultivos bacterianos, dos identificados como H. sulfidaeris y 3 como H. salina; todos los cultivos evidenciaron capacidad de reducir el nitrato a nitrito eliminando el amonio del medio. Se concluye que en el sedimento de criaderos de Litopenaeus vannamei ubicadas en Tumbes-Perú, están presentes las especies H. sulfidaeris y H. salina, con capacidad nitrificante, que permiten la eliminación del amonio, la cual se desarrolla como una opción eficaz para el tratamiento de agua residuales salinas de amonio.
How to Build Peace
Authors: Knecht-Turkanik Stefania
Published: December 2023

Despite peacebuilding efforts between Ukraine and Poland, the author shows that the conflict between the two nations, with its violent zenith in the 20th century, remains unresolved. Looking at Andrei Sheptyts’kyi, Ukrainian Greek Catholic metropolitan between 1901 and 1944, as well as the insights from conducting qualitative research with contemporary representatives of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, the author argues that Sheptyts’kyi must be considered a peacebuilder, and that, following his example, representatives of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church are uniquely situated to be peacebuilders in the Polish-Ukrainian conflict. Lastly, the author suggests several avenues for future peacebuilding.

Study of Sources of Drinking Water and Processes of Water’s Purification from Pollutants
Authors: Mammadov Khagani
Published: December 2023

This chapter presents an analysis of the sensory, physical-chemical, and microbiological aspects of water samples from drinking water sources in Azerbaijan. In the investigation, the presence of heavy metals, trace natural radionuclides, and other inorganic components is assessed. Results show that the chemical composition and microbiological parameters of waters transported to Baku, Azerbaijan through the Shollar and Oguz-Gabala pipelines comply with GOST 2874-82, AZS 216-2006, and AZS 282-2007 standards for drinking water, making them suitable for consumption. The study also found that the radioactive radon concentration in the thermal springs of the Istisu sanatorium in the Kalbajar region of Azerbaijan falls below the guideline indicator, rendering the springs safe for medical use under physician supervision. However, the radon levels in cold and thermal springs situated at an altitude of 2385 m above sea level exceed the recommended threshold by 100 times, making them unfit for drinking. The study also investigated the polluted water of the Araz River as well as measured background radiation along its watercourse. Finally, the study determined the optimal parameters for the chemical and radiological purification of water contaminated with harmful emissions and pathogenic microorganisms. This chapter also delves into the mechanisms underlying chemical and radiation-chemical processes involved in purifying polluted water.

Authors: Hotea Ionela , Dragomirescu Monica , Berbecea Adina , Radulov Isidora
Published: December 2023

Sheep nutrition is of paramount importance for ensuring sustainable sheep production, regardless of whether it follows traditional or precision methods. Optimal nutrition not only contributes to the well-being and productivity of sheep but also mitigates environmental consequences. Both traditional and precision production systems can adopt responsible management practices to enhance sustainability. These practices encompass maximizing pasture utilization, reducing dependency on synthetic inputs, minimizing waste generation, and implementing efficient feeding strategies. By giving due consideration to the nutritional requirements of sheep and their ecological footprint, sustainable sheep production can be successfully attained across various production systems. It is essential to strike a balance between meeting the nutritional needs of sheep and minimizing environmental impacts to foster a sustainable future for sheep farming.

Le Sursis et « Les cons ! » : investigations sur une formule rugueuse attribuée à Daladier
Authors: Broche Laurent
Published: December 2023

Resume :Dans les évocations des accords de Munich, une scène est omniprésente : Édouard Daladier, au Bourget, devant la foule en joie, lâchant « Les cons ! ». Cette réaction s’est imposée comme une formule, peu figée dans son ton, ainsi que dans ses lieux, statuts et destinataires. Lorsque ce rude commentaire est rapproché d’une source précise, c’est uniquement aux dernières lignes du Sursis de Sartre. Cet article établit que d’autres mots et d’autres circonstances circulèrent sur ce moment avant la publication du Sursis, et après. Mais, c’est la scène du roman qui s’est imposée dans les mémoires. Cette contribution interroge aussi le succès de cette version.
Vive Balzac quand même ! Sur la postérité d’une locution conjonctive
Authors: Alliet Jérémie Nicolas
Published: December 2023

Resume :L’usage contemporain de l’expression « quand même » en français est aujourd’hui largement démocratisé et se rencontre dans tous discours de l’espace public. Le TLF indique bien que c’est Balzac qui a popularisé l’expression dans son sens adverbial, alors que la locution est originellement une conjonction de subordination qui introduit une concession (paraphrasable par « même si... »). Devenue une véritable « formule » dans notre pratique quotidienne de la langue, l’expression est en réalité issue d’un sociolecte particulier, celui de l’aristocratie légitimiste de la Monarchie de Juillet, suite au basculement de régime de 1830 : elle renvoie à l’adhésion molle et peu enthousiaste du groupe des ultras au nouveau roi. C’est dans un texte de fiction, chez Balzac qui utilise pour la première fois ce terme en 1833 dans L’Illustre Gaudissart, que le sens se popularise et qu’une très grande variété d’emplois contribue à asseoir le sens de cette expression que nous employons aujourd’hui dans le sens de « en dépit des circonstances ».
Austrian Language Policy on the rights to mother tongue education
Authors:   Ferenc Rakoczi II Transcarpathian Hungarian College of Higher Education, Hladonik Gergely ,   University of Pannonia
Published: December 2023

Austrian Language Policy on the rights to mother tongue education The study focuses on Austria’s key language policies and legislations that have an impact on German as a state language as well as minority languages. The Federal Constitution of Austria contains the most important regulations protecting German and minority languages. The first three articles of Austria's Constitution are critical legislations for the protection of state and minority languages. The Austrian Federal Constitution requires ethnic communities to be protected and preserved. The study then goes on to explore the primary organisations and administrations responsible for the evolution of today's Austrian language policy. The system in Austria for safeguarding and promoting minority languages is typically well-developed. Austria has been an active participant in European programmes aimed at the protection of minorities. Ratification of the European Charter for Regional and Minority Languages is a critical step towards the European Union's integration. Austria signed and ratified the Charter in 1992 and 2001, respectively. Slovenians, Croats, Hungarians, Czechs, Slovaks, and Roma are the six indigenous ethnic minorities recognized in Austria. Austria issued its fifth evaluation report in 2023. This report was reviewed by the researcher using critical discursive analysis. Based on the facts gathered, Austria is a country that should be emulated in terms of minority safeguarding and protection; nonetheless, changes are needed in several areas. Keywords: language policy, language policy in education, minorities, minority rights, minority rights in Austria, Austrian language policy
Petőfi Sándor néhány verséről diákszemmel
Authors:   Charles University (Prague), H. Tóth István
Published: December 2023

Some of Sándor Petőfi's poems from a student's point of view: Mosaics from the research of students' analyses of art Curricula come, curricula go, and they bring in their wake outdated, then updated, or even new textbooks from time to time, in the name of reforms or a modern perspective. Meanwhile, the quiet, or more intense debate swings back and forth, again and again between the work-centered or reception-centered literature teaching approaches. This paper contributes to this discourse while shedding light on the intersection of what can be called a pair of opposing concepts at the center of the debate, when the degrees of understanding a work of literature and the student's confrontation with poetical works as lyrical subjects become the organizing principle in the world of a literature class. This professional-pedagogical reflection is supported by a presentation of facts, data, and correlations of the analytical work of twenty 7th grade students from Kelebia in southern Hungary, in order to assist the teaching and learning of literature as a subject. Keywords: content-centered versus reception-centered literature teaching, poetic text, historical and aesthetic views of literature, author/creator attitude, use of literary and art theoretical concepts, technical terminology, technical vocabulary, paragraph, complete sentence, sentence unit, structure and style analysis

Issues of language policy and language planning in Transcarpathia during the first Czechoslovak Republic The concepts of state language, official language, and minority language do not have a generally accepted definition in international law. In Central and Eastern Europe, the state language is usually the language of the majority of the population of a particular country, in which it also serves as the official language. In interwar Czechoslovakia, the 1920 Language Law allowed the use of the language of the Slavic population, which constituted the absolute majority in the territory of Transcarpathia, as the official language in administration, office work, culture and education, granting the region's Slavs a greater degree of political, cultural and linguistic autonomy than they had ever enjoyed. But this linguistic freedom also brought practical problems to the surface. First of all, during this period there were three standard versions of the language adopted as the official language of the region. This article analyses the attitudes of the state and local intellectuals towards these language variants. Keywords: language policy, language planning, official language, language variants, Transcarpathia, the period between the two world wars
Rare and threatened bryophytes and a proposal for an Eastern European Red Book
Authors: Oleg M.
Published: December 2023

The bryoflora of Eastern Europe includes around 1300 species. Analysis of their distribution has revealed about 250 гаге species. Many European threatened species have their main distribution in Eastern Europe. Results of Eastern European bryological investigations аre not widely known in Western Europe and some of the threatened Eastern European species are not protected оп a European level. The experience of bryophyte protection activity in Belarus and the creation of an Eastern European Bryophyte Red Book will be useful for the real protection of species in countries in both this region and in all the continent. The Eastern European Red Book will include: 1) European protected species; 2) very гаге species (1-5 sites) in Eastern Europe; 3) declining species of threatened specific habitats; 4) regionally protected species in different Eastern European countries. A draft checklist of species to be included in the proposed Eastern European Red Book is presented.

Se analiza el nivel de conocimiento de la flora muscinal de la Comunidad de Madrid con el objetivo de establecer si constituye una base fiable para la elaboración de una lista roja y el diseño de planes de gestión de especies amenazadas. Los resultados muestran importantes carencias en la prospección del territorio, ya que, a pesar de contar con un amplio catálogo (323 táxones), sólo el 22% de los municipios tiene alguna referencia de musgos. Considerando las limitaciones del conocimiento actual, se aportan listas de especies cuya presencia en la región necesita ser revisada, de táxones potencialmente amenazados, y de táxones de interés especial para la Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid.

The state of knowledge of the moss flora of the Autonomous Community of Madrid is revised in order to verify its reliability for completing a red-list and the design of management plans for endangered species. The results show a lack of prospecting, as only 22% of the municipalities have any muscinal reference, despite the total catalogue of 323 taxa of mosses. Considering the limitations of the present knowledge some preliminary lists are given showing the taxa whose presence in the region should be revised, the potentially endangered taxa, and the special concern taxa in the Autonomous Community of Madrid.

Authors: Ningsih Klara Putri , Putri Cici Ramadhani , Lubis Siti Khairuna Salwa
Published: December 2023

Trauma on human mental health, refers to the inevitable conflict, stress and frustration in social life. This phenomenon, although common, can cause an imbalance in interpersonal relationships which can lead to mental health problems. Trauma, regardless of age, occupation or skin color, occurs as a result of painful situations, both physical and psychological. The definition of trauma by Evi Sukmaningrum, Psi., Msi, highlights the individual nature of reactions to traumatic events. In the context of mental health, especially in developing countries, this problem is still not given adequate priority. Therefore, this research aims to explore the impact of trauma, explore the role of interpersonal relationships, and respond to the urgent need to increase attention to mental health problems, especially in the context of developing countries. Mental health as an integral part of human well-being is in the global spotlight, but major challenges are visible, especially in developing countries. Traumatic situations in many cases create long-term scars in the memory and subconscious mind, according to the understanding by Evi Sukmaningrum, Psi., Msi. This research seeks to approach mental health problems as an integral part of overall health, with the hope of finding effective approaches to prevention and treatment.
Cross-cultural Adaptation of the Activity Questionnaire for Adults and Adolescents into Turkish and Investigation of its Validity and Reliability
Authors: Süzer Akın , Çinar Özdemir Özlem
Published: December 2023

Objective: The Activity Questionnaire for Adults and Adolescents (AQuAA) is used to evaluate physical activity (PA) levels in different age groups. Its validity and reliability in the Turkish language have not been studied yet. This study aims to adapt the AQuAA into Turkish and to investigate its validity and reliability.
Methods: A total of 124 volunteers were included in the study. After the Turkish adaptation of AQuAA, the AQuAA-Tr version was administered to the volunteers for test-retest reliability twice, with an interval of two weeks, and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ-SF) for criterion validity. For construct validity, the step counts of the volunteers were followed for two weeks with the Samsung Health® smartphone pedometer application. The reliability of the AQuAA-Tr was evaluated with intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC). Spearman correlation coefficients (r) were used to analyze the relationships between continuous variables.
Results: A total of 72 adolescents (51 females and 21 males, mean age 14.5 ± 0.1 years) and 52 young adults (32 females and 20 males, mean age 25.8 ± 1.3 years) participated in the test-retest reliability and criterion validity study. Thirty-four adolescents (26 female, 8 male, mean age 14.7 ± 0.2 years) and 39 young adults (27 female, 12 male, mean age 25.6 ± 1.5 years) were included in the construct validity study. The test-retest reliability of the questionnaire was in the range of strong to very strong (ICC = 0.704 to 0.982) in adolescents and moderate to strong (ICC = 0.606 to 0.851) in adults for different levels of PA. In the context of the criterion validity, although there were moderate to strong correlations (r = 0.413 to 0.768) between some PA levels of the IPAQ-SF and AQuAA-Tr in adolescents and moderate correlations (r = 0.422 to 0.525) in adults, the correlations were mostly weak or negligible. In relation to construct validity, although there were moderate correlations (r = 0.435 to 0.504) between the Samsung Health® data and some PA levels of the AQuAA-Tr in adults, the correlations were mostly weak or negligible. There were no correlations between the Samsung Health® data and AQuAA-Tr in adolescents.
Conclusion: The reliability of the AQuAA-Tr was confirmed in both adolescents and adults. However, the criterion and construct validity of the AQuAA-Tr were not confirmed for either adolescents or adults. Introducing a PA questionnaire, which can provide detailed information about sedentary, light, moderate, and vigorous PA scores separately and total PA scores and allows the evaluation of PA in different categories, into our language is considered beneficial. Yet, the results of AQuAA-Tr should be interpreted carefully in the clinic.
A Scoping Review of the Role and Limitations of Surgical Versus Non-Surgical Management of Dentofacial Deformities
Authors: Grillo Ricardo , Meireles Borba Alexandre , Slusarenko da Silva Yuri , Aparecida Brozoski Mariana
Published: December 2023

Objectives: The amount of dermal filler procedures is increasing. Some patients opt to undergo dermal fillers instead of orthognathic surgery to treat unesthetic complaints from dentofacial deformities. The aim of this work is to carry out a literature review with regard to a comparison of role and limitations between aesthetic indications of orthognathic surgery and dermal fillers.
Methods: A scoping review was performed according to the PRISMA-ScR guidelines on Pubmed, Web of Science and Google Scholar. A second search was conducted to highlight topics very close subjects to the main subject: the importance of social media and measures to avoid litigation in facial aesthetics.
Results: Literature on the subject is very rare. Clinical facial analysis is fundamental to both procedures. Although patients wishes are important issues, facial analysis cannot be neglected due to its objectivity. Body dysmorphic disorder is considered a contraindication for both procedures. Social media is important in patient decision-making, but should not influence treatment planning by experts. Preventing litigation or reducing financial and reputational damage can be accomplished with a few simple steps.
Conclusions: A helpful list of indications and particularly contraindications for orthognathic surgery and dermal fillers was drawn up. Dermal fillers must not substitute orthognathic surgery. Further studies are urgently needed to discuss this contemporary issue.

Chronica Hungarorum a lui Johannes de Thurocz; o comparație a edițiilor Brno și Augsburg (1488)
Authors:   Institutul de Istorie „George Bariţiu” din Cluj-Napoca al Academiei Române, Mârza Andrea
Published: December 2023

"Johannes de Thurocz was the author of the only chronicle that did not circulate in manuscript form. The first edition appeared in the printing house of Konrad Stahel and Matthias Preinlein in Brno on 20 March 1488, and shortly afterwards, on 3 June 1488, another edition was printed in Augsburg in the printing house of Erhard Ratdolt. Both editions end with the mournful song of magister Rogerius lamenting the destruction caused by the Tartars during the invasion of 1241. The printing of the second edition of the Chronica Hungarorum may be the result of the lack of a history of the kingdom of Hungary on the market that also captures the history of Transylvania as part of the kingdom. There are differences between the two editions: in content (towards the end), in the composition of woodcuts, number of woodcuts, decorative elements or discomposing of letters. For the present research, we have turned to the editions found in the libraries in Cluj-Napoca and Alba Iulia, being particularly concerned with the way of penetration into book holdings and the ownership marks proving the European route of the copies in question."

This paper analyses the right of inheritance on the feminine line in medieval Transylvania, through the history of a noble family residing in Sântioana, in the Târnava county. The aim of this study is to highlight the practice of inheritance by girls from this noble family with increased attention on the category of goods they acquired, the right to own them, the importance of feminine inheritance for the girls and their descendants and the courts before which the inheritance disputes have been tried.
Origine socială, rețele confesionale și de familie la elita politică românească din Transilvania. Studiu de caz: deputații greco-catolici și ortodocși (1861-1918)

"This study analyses to what extent social origin, family and confessional networks influenced the rise and development of the Romanian political elite in Transylvania in the second half of the nineteenth century and at the beginning of the twentieth century. This analysis focuses on the Greek-Catholic and Orthodox laymen and clergymen who asserted themselves in the political life of Transylvania during the studied period. Starting from the unanimously accepted premise that clergymen were gradually replaced by secular politicians (laymen) on the political stage in the second half of the nineteenth century, we aim to achieve the following goals. First of all, we wish to identify the social provenance of this political elite and the decisive role played by the socio-economic background in their advancement as individual actors or as members of a decision-making group. Secondly, we intend to see to what extent belonging to a confession, in this case to the Greek-Catholic and Orthodox faith, was an incentive towards political cohesionin dualistic Hungary. Specifically, we will try to answer a few research questions such as: did confession still serve, in the second half of the nineteenth century, as an invisible bondamong the Romanian political elite? Given the existing structures in the territory, at the level of the dioceses, vicariates and deaneries, could confession ensure a broader and more efficient electoral support compared to other voter activation mechanisms? Last but not least, we will attempt to capture the socio-confessional networks existing at the level of the Romanian political groups, their ramifications in the territory and their ability to support and influence the political leaders’decisions."
O relație dificilă. Social-democrații, comuniștii și conflictele politice din România postbelică, 1944-1947
Authors:   Universitatea de Vest Timișoara, Copilaş Emanuel
Published: December 2023

The Social Democratic Party and the Romanian Communist Party developed a very sinuous and difficult political relation after the events of August 1944. The origins of this relation were complicated since 1921, when the RCP separated itself from the SDP and adhered to the International Bolshevik. This essay briefly pinpoints some of the major divergencies between the two parts that culminated in 1946 with the split of the SDP and, in early 1948, with the dissapearance of the entire social-democratic movement through its absorption within the newly emerged Romanian Workers Party (RWP).
Procesul optanților − studiu de caz: Domeniul Wenckheim
Authors:   Universitatea București, Pantea Alexandra Maria
Published: December 2023

After the First World War, radical changes took place in Central Europe, which also affected the great Hungarian landowners, who owned numerous lands and other assets in the territories that had separated from Hungary in the fall of 1918. In Transylvania, a large part of these landowners, who settled in Hungary, were considered absentees, and their assets were expropriated by the Romanian state in accordance with the agrarian reform law of 1921. Among the large expropriated owners was Christina Wenckheim, who owned the Sebiș-Moneasa estate, which it included both agricultural land and forests, as well as the spa resort of Moneasa, mines, railways and other industrial assets. Through this study we tried to determine the way in which Christina Wenckheim and her descendants tried to obtain compensation for the assets expropriated by the Romanian state.
Grigore Gafencu – Un destin diplomatic împlinit în exil
Authors:   Universitatea Babeș-Bolyai, Jureschi Iuliana Alexandra
Published: December 2023

The historiographical writings about Grigore Gafencu framed him as a patriot and a Europeanist. All of the initiatives he later stand for, after leaving the country and going into exile, were fundamentally tied to his diplomatic destiny. His positions as a journalist and the contacts he made afterward, in Geneva, both reflect a complex personality. In retrospect, it appeared that writing was his first major commitment; now, we would refer to him as a distinguished political figure. His translated and published writings from exile continue to serve as proof of this work. Grigore Gafencu maintained the ideals of his generation and through his initiative, being a militant of the European cause, made a political commitment to the improvement of the European Union.
Între așteptări și nedumeriri: Oliver Jens Schmitt, Biserica de stat sau Biserica în stat?
Authors:   Institutul de Istorie „George Bariţiu” din Cluj-Napoca al Academiei Române, Birtz Remus Mircea
Published: December 2023

Much more than a mere book review, the following article critically presents Oliver Jens Schmitt’s recently published monograph and, starting from it, a heated polemic concerning the history and historiography of the Romanian Orthodox Church during the last century. Generous references to primary and secondary sources of the topic are suggested to the author of the reviewed book. Moreover, the reviewer also makes valuable considerations regarding the ethics and deontology of research in social sciences and humanities, the methods used by historians in general, and by church historians in particular. This elegantly written and scientifically based book review turns into a worthy model to follow in further cases of coping with ideologically marked pseudo-scientific approaches.
Incidence and Determinants of Diarrheal Cases in Children Under Five Admitted at Kampala International University Teaching Hospital, IshakaBushenyi District, Western Uganda
Authors:   Faculty of Clinical Medicine and Dentistry at Kampala International University Western Campus Uganda., Denis Halongo
Published: December 2023

Diarrhoea stands as a significant global public health issue, with the WHO reporting approximately 2.5 billion cases annually among children below five years old. This study aimed to ascertain the prevalence of diarrhoea and its influencing factors in children under five admitted to Kampala International University Teaching Hospital (KIU-TH). Employing a cross-sectional and descriptive approach, quantitative data was gathered through selfadministered and investigator-led questionnaires, utilizing digital tools such as Google Sheets for data collection. A total of 238 mothers, randomly selected using convenience sampling, whose children were admitted at KIU-TH constituted the study's sample. The results, presented through 95% Confidence Intervals (C.I), Odd Ratios (OR), and P-values, were computed using Binary Logistic Regression with Pearson’s correlation in SPSS Version 26, and graphically represented using Microsoft Excel Software. At the time of data collection, the prevalence of diarrhoea among children under five admitted at KIU-TH stood at 24.4% based on maternal responses. This high prevalence was found to be influenced by several factors, including the child's vaccination status, the early introduction of supplementary foods, premature weaning practices, and the child's age. Notably, exclusive breastfeeding practices were not adhered to, with mothers introducing other foods at a young age and initiating early weaning practices. Keywords: Diarrhoea, Children under five years of age, Vaccination status, early weaning.
The nutritional well-being of children under five with HIV-positive parents at Bikurungu Health Center III in Rukungiri District

Families affected by HIV/AIDS often face food insecurity and malnutrition. In impoverished nations, over a third of infectious disease-related deaths in children under five result from poor nutrition. Household food insecurity and the impact of HIV/AIDS-related illnesses can hinder the growth of young children, leading to increased malnutrition. A study involving 310 mother/infant pairs from various households was conducted using a convenient sampling method. Information was gathered through a structured questionnaire. Analysis revealed that children in households affected by HIV had a significantly higher rate of stunting (height-for-age < –2 SD) compared to those in unaffected households (25.5% vs. 9.1%, p = .002). However, the rates of wasting and underweight did not significantly differ between HIV-affected and unaffected households. Living in households affected by HIV is associated with stunted growth in children under five. Keywords: HIV/AIDS, Children under 5 years of age, Malnutrition, Stunting
