A multilevel analysis of the relationship between parental migration and left-behind children’s macronutrient intakes in rural China [1]

China’s internal migration has left 61 million children living apart from their parent(s) in rural areas. The present study aimed to examine whether the relative contributions of macronutrients (protein, fat and carbohydrate) to total energy intake differ between children left behind by the father or mother, compared with children from intact families.
