The Berbers of the High Atlas (Amazigh) live in very severe socio-economic and climatic conditions, which expose children to the risk of malnutrition. In this study we used anthropometry and bioelectrical impedance analysis for the assessment of nutritional status. Height, weight and bioelectrical parameters were taken on 71 children (28 boys and 43 girls). Height and BMI were standardized using the 2007 WHO reference. The results show that 36.6% of the children were classified as stunted and 8.5% as wasted. Based on the Bioelectrical Impedance Vector Analysis, children from the High Atlas had an adequate body cell mass, but a high risk of dehydration (42.3%).

RésuméUne enquête a été réalisée dans la ville de Marrakech, en 2008, auprès d’un échantillon de 1 202 femmes ayant accouché durant les cinq dernières années dans le but de mettre en évidence l’effet de l’exode rural sur l’accès aux soins de santé maternelle et la réduction de la morbidité maternelle des femmes. Les résultats mettent en évidence des différences significatives entre les femmes nées en milieu urbain et celles nées en milieu rural aussi bien pour les taux de consultations et d’accouchements en milieu surveillé que pour les taux de morbidités maternelles sévères (MMS): les recours aux soins sont moins fréquents et la morbidité maternelle plus répandue chez les femmes issues de l’exode rural et plus particulièrement chez celles arrivées à la suite ou après leur mariage. Le faible recours aux soins de santé maternelle et à l’accouchement surveillé des femmes migrantes s’explique en partie par des situations socioéconomique et culturelle défavorables. Il faut cependant signaler que, malgré ce constat, les femmes migrantes ont une situation nettement meilleure que celle des femmes restées en milieu rural. Par ailleurs, pour ces femmes migrantes, aucune corrélation entre la MMS et les facteurs socioéconomiques n’a été relevée. Par contre, une relation positive forte avec des facteurs de risque biodémographiques (petite taille de la femme, poids élevé de la femme et présence de mort-nés) a été enregistrée.AbstractA survey was made in 2008 in the city of Marrakech among a sample of 1,202 women who had given birth within the previous five years, in order to discern the effects of migration from rural areas on access to maternal health care and on maternal morbidity. The results show significant differences between women born in urban and rural areas, in terms of the frequency of medical consultations and supervised childbirth as well as rates of severe maternal morbidity: women arriving in Marrakech from rural areas, especially married or recently married women, use health care less frequently and have a higher rate of severe maternal morbidity. The low rates of maternal health care use and supervised childbirth among migrant women are partly accounted for by their socio-economic and cultural disadvantages. However, it should be noted that migrant women are still much better off in these respects than women remaining in rural areas. Moreover, we found no correlation among these migrant women between severe maternal morbidity and socioeconomic factors. On the other hand, we found a strong positive correlation with biodemographic risk factors (small or overweight women and the occurrence of stillbirths).
