(2) The VOA report is based on

Özaltin E, Hill K and Subramanian SV, Association of Maternal Stature
With Offspring Mortality, Underweight, and Stunting in Low- to Middle-Income
Countries. Journal of American Medical Association(JAMA), 303:1507-1516 (

I am unsure if you can have access to the full article, whose subjects of "
54 low- to middle-income countries" includes India but not China.
