5 Conditional cash transfer programmes and nutritional status Deworming during pregnancy Deworming in children Intermittent preventative treatment to reduce the risk of malaria during pregnancy Insecticide-treated nets to reduce the risk of malaria in pregnant women Water, sanitation and hygiene interventions to prevent diarrhoea Obesity and diet-related NCDs Exclusive breastfeeding to reduce the risk of childhood overweight and obesity Increasing fruit and vegetable consumption to reduce the risk of noncommunicable diseases Increasing potassium intake to control blood pressure in children Increasing potassium intake to reduce blood pressure and risk of cardiovascular diseases in adults Limiting portion sizes to reduce the risk of childhood overweight and obesity Reducing consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages to reduce the risk of childhood overweight/obesity Reducing consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages to reduce the risk of unhealthy weight gain in adults Reducing sodium intake to control blood pressure in children Reducing sodium intake to reduce blood pressure and risk of cardiovascular diseases in adults Reducing the impact of marketing of foods and non-alcoholic beverages on children Undernutrition Supplementary foods for the management of moderate acute malnutrition in children Management of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) Fluid management in severely malnourished children under 5 years of age with shock Fluid management in severely malnourished children under 5 years of age without shock Identification of SAM in children 6 59 months of age Identification of SAM in infants under 6 months of age Identification of SAM requiring inpatient care in children 6 59 months of age Management of HIV-infected children under 5 years of age with SAM Management of infants under six months of age with SAM

Individual studies were not assessed unless they were included in such a published review. Coloured icons indicate that there is evidence of a direct link between the intervention of interest and target(s); i.e. systematic reviews are available assessing the effect of the intervention on an outcome directly relevant to the targets (e.g. prevalence of stunting, rate of breastfeeding, etc.). Gray icons indicate that there is evidence of an indirect link between the intervention of interest and target(s). Where indirect links have been noted, systematic reviews linking the intervention directly to one or more targets are not currently available; i.e. the studies included in the review(s) do not assess the effect of the intervention on the outcomes that are directly relevant to the targets. For example, systematic reviews directly linking breastfeeding to stunting are not currently available. However, systematic reviews linking breastfeeding to a reduction in diarrhoea are available, as are reviews linking diarrhoea to increases in stunting. Therefore, interventions that increase breastfeeding rates may indirectly reduce stunting. Additionally, indirect links may be noted when the only available outcome data is for an indicator used to assess outcomes relevant to the targets. For example, body mass index (BMI) is an indicator for overweight and obesity and an intervention that reduces BMI may contribute to decreasing rates of overweight and/or obesity. Therefore, an indirect link would be noted between interventions for which systematic review(s) report BMI as an outcome, and the global overweight and obesity targets.
