Diarrhoea and nutrition related characteristics of children and their households who are urban dwellers and compare these characteristics associated with rural young children has been discussed in this book. One hundred seventy urban and rural children of age group 6-10 years were selected from a tertiary care hospital, ICDDR,B. The knowledge of urban population regarding the primary symptoms of diarrhoea was good (p=0.191). But it was found rural population know more about the preparation of home made fluid (p=0.220).
