Abstract

Stunting remains a global nutritional issue that seriously impacts the linear growth of children. To analyze the effectiveness of various nutrition interventions on increasing the height of children with stunting through a systematic literature review approach. A systematic literature search was conducted across four electronic databases PubMed/MEDLINE, Google Scholar, Scopus, and ScienceDirect covering publications from 2021 to 2026, guided by the PRISMA 2020 framework. Keywords employed included: stunting, nutrition intervention, linear growth, height-for-age z-score, food supplementation, micronutrient supplementation, and children under five. From 309 initially identified articles, 12 articles satisfied the inclusion criteria and were systematically analyzed. Interventions proven effective include digital-based nutrition education, Recovery Supplementary Feeding (PMT-P), the DASHAT program, and complementary feeding education. Single micronutrient supplementation did not produce significant changes in height-for-age z-score (HAZ) yang signifikan (p = 0,93), whereas app-based education increased height by ≥ 1,9 cm. Addressing stunting requires an integrated multi-component approach, prioritized since the first 1,000 Days of Life (HPK).
