Abstract

This review aimed to identify the determinants of nutritional and health factors associated with high risk of Low Birth Weight (LBW) among infants in Indonesia. The review was conducted systematically based on all articles published between 2012–2022 in PubMed, ScienceDirect, and SAGE databases. In the end, four articles were used in this review. The results showed that potential risk factors associated with LBW are maternal nutritional factors such as Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) (25%) and pre-pregnancy Body Mass Index (BMI) (50%), and maternal health factors that can be assessed during routine Antenatal Care (ANC). Therefore, identification of risk factors for LBW is important to minimize the incidence of LBW.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate calcium bioavailability through serum calcium level in pregnant rats treated with two Milk-Based Drinks (MBD) containing Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB), i.e Lactobacillus Casei Shirota Strain (LcS) drink, and Four Strains Bacteria (FS) (Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus paracasei, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subp. bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophiles). It was a completely randomized experimental study using 24 Sprague Dawley rats. Rats were divided into one negative control group with a normal nutritional status (A0) and three undernourished groups. The undernourished groups were divided into one positive control group (A1), one group receiving MBD containing LcS group (A2), and another group receiving MBD containing FS (A3). All rats received high protein diets during pregnancy. The intervention was started in early pregnancy (D0) until 19 days of pregnancy (D19). Blood samples were collected at the D0 and D19. No significant differences in food intake were found among the rats in all groups. Administration of MBD containing LAB in A2 and A3 showed significant (p<0.05) increment of calcium bioavailability (30.79±6.88%; 20.44±9.04%). Both MBDs treatment containing LAB showed no significant difference in serum calcium bioavailability (p>0.05). The results suggest that MBDs containing LAB are useful in enhancing calcium bioavailability.

Abstract

The digital transformation in education has introduced innovative approaches to paediatric nutrition education, offering alternatives to traditional methods. This comparative analysis examined the effectiveness of technology-enhanced versus traditional approaches in improving nutritional knowledge and behaviour among Indonesian children and adolescents. The aimed of this review was to systematically compare the effectiveness of technology-enhanced and traditional approaches to paediatric nutrition education based on primary research studies conducted in Indonesia. This review analyzed ten primary research studies conducted in Indonesia between 2015-2025, examining various educational intervention including digital media (videos, mobile applications, social media), interactive games, and traditional methods (leaflets, face-to-face counselling) across different paediatric populations. Technology-enhanced interventions demonstrated superior effectiveness compared to traditional methods. Digital interventions showed knowledge improvement rates ranging from 19.5% to 73.3%, while traditional methods achieved 8.2% to 12.6% improvement. Video-based education proved most effective (mean improvement: 27.39 points), followed by mobile applications (68% to 87.3% correct response) and social media platforms. In conclusion, technology-enhanced approaches to paediatric nutrition education significantly outperformed traditional methods in improving nutritional knowledge and attitudes among Indonesian children and adolescents, with video-based interventions showing the highest efficacy.

Abstract

Infant anthropometry is an indicator of neonatal survival. This study aimed to determine the effects of maternal anthropometry on estimating infant anthropom­etry. This cross-sectional study on 173 pregnant women at Public Hospital X in Ternate, Indonesia, was conducted from August 2018 to March 2023. The el­igible criteria were pregnant women aged ≥18 years, single pregnancy, and antenatal care (ANC) visits to the same hospital. The variables used included ma­ternal anthropometric measurements (body weight, body height, third-trimester weight (TTW)), gestational weight gain (GWG), education, age, ANC visits, and gestational age at delivery (GAD). A logistic regression model was employed to estimate significant variables related to infant anthropometric measure­ments (birth weight, birth length, and head circumference). The results showed that TTW, GWG, ANC, and GAD had significantly affected birth weight. Bodyweight, height, and TTW also significantly affected birth length. In addition, only GAD significantly affected the head circumference. In multivariate analysis, TTW and GWG significantly affected birth weight. Furthermore, only body height and GAD affected the birth length. Maternal anthropometrics become impor­tant indicators for estimating birth weight and birth length.
