The problem
Intervention: Locally sourced foods containing probiotics and prebiotics administered for 14 days
Who it was tested with: 15 stunted toddlers in Indonesia.
The same group is measured before the intervention and again afterwards, with a baseline and an endline and sometimes a midline. Change is visible, but other causes cannot be ruled out.
"This study applied a pre–post test design involving 15 stunted toddlers. The intervention consisted of locally sourced foods containing probiotics and prebiotics, administered for 14 days. Data collection included body weight, height, and Z-scores, measured before and after the intervention." The study measured the same group of children before and after receiving the intervention, showing improvements in growth markers across all participants.
Small sample size of 15 participants, no control group for comparison, short intervention period of 14 days, unclear whether improvements are sustained beyond the study period
