In conclusion, our findings revealed high prevalence of malnutrition, while also emphasize the likelihood of overestimation of malnutrition in children with CP when anthropometric assessment was based on use of growth charts for general pediatric population. This large-scale survey provided valuable data regarding nutritional assessment practice and malnutrition prevalence among children with CP in Turkey, which may be utilized for future proactive strategies in the prevention and treatment of malnutrition in this population.
