Konzo is a sudden spastic paraparesis that causes permanent paralysis of the legs and occurs mainly in children and young women. Konzo results from high cyanogen intake and malnutrition caused by a monotonous diet of bitter cassava. The known inciden

Highlights • In 6 villages we measured konzo prevalence, urinary thiocyanate and FC scores. • % konzo prevalence (%K), % high urine thiocyanate (%T), % malnutrition (%M) relate. • The results fitted an equation %K = 0.06%T + 0.035%M. • The we
