Does early initiation of homemade yogurt supplementation prevent stunting – a pilot randomized controlled trial dataset

This dataset contains data from a randomised controlled trial that was done on infants aged 6-9 months to test the effectiveness of yoghurt in improving their growth and gut health. Participants were sourced from the slums in Dhaka, Bangladesh.

The study was interrupted due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We enrolled 162 children in the trial, and findings suggest that there was a greater improvement in growth among the children who participated in the yoghurt intervention. The results were not statistically significant.
The dataset contains scanned paper questionnaires and the related STATA data files.
This dataset contains sensitive information where participants can be identified. Controlled access will be considered by the author Kaniz Jannat - [e-mail] ORCID 0000-0002-2993-1955.

本数据集源自一项针对6-9月龄婴儿的随机对照试验（randomised controlled trial），旨在评估酸奶对改善其生长发育与肠道健康的功效。试验招募的受试者均来自孟加拉国达卡市的贫民窟区域。
该研究因新冠疫情（COVID-19）被迫中断。本试验共纳入162名儿童，研究结果显示，接受酸奶干预的儿童生长发育改善程度更为显著，但该差异未达到统计学显著性水平。
本数据集包含扫描版纸质问卷及相关STATA数据文件。
