Resumen	The HFIAS is a 9-item survey designed to measure the frequency and severity of food insecurity at the household level in resource-limited settings. Developed by the FANTA Project in 2007, it assesses four domains of food access: anxiety, dietary diversity, food consumption frequency, and household member deprivation. It is widely used in low- and middle-income countries for program evaluation and surveillance.	The Maternal Diet Quality Index (MDQI) is a composite measure of maternal nutrition that evaluates diet quality during pregnancy and postpartum using a scored framework. Adapted from general population dietary quality indices, the MDQI emphasizes nutrients critical for fetal development and maternal health: folate, iron, calcium, protein, and micronutrient-rich foods. Use in research and clinical nutrition assessment to characterize maternal diet quality and its associations with pregnancy outcomes and lactation.
