Abstract

Stunting is a condition where infants experience growth failure due to malnutrition that has been experienced for a long period of time, exposed to repeated infections and not supported by adequate stimulation. The 0-24 month period is a golden period that determines the quality of life and is very sensitive because the consequences caused to babies in that period will be permanent and irreparable. The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors that influence the incidence of stunting  for 2 years old babies. The research design used in this study was descriptive analytic. The population in this study were 2-year-old babies in the work area of the Katarina Simanjuntak Clinic and the sampling technique in this study was a purposive technique, namely a sampling technique based on certain criteria predetermined by the researcher with a total of 98 people. Secondary data were collected using the MCH book and primary data were collected using microtoise instruments and questionnaires. The results of data analysis showed that infant variables associated with the incidence of stunting were infant birth weight and history of MP breastfeeding. Statistically significant factors were birth weight with a p-value of 0.001 and history of MP breastfeeding with a p-value of 0.003. This study can be used as a reference material for health workers in efforts to prevent stunting by optimizing complementary feeding and stimulation, especially in infants with low birth weight..

Abstract

ABSTRAK Stunting adalah bentuk kegagalan pertumbuhan akibat akumulasi ketidakcukupan nutrisi yang berlangsung lama. Kurangnya pemahaman masyarakat dalam melakukan deteksi penyimpangan pertumbuhan bayi menjadi salah satu faktor penyebab tidak terdeteksinya dari awal kejadian stunting pada anak. Untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan kemampuan kelompok ibu Moria dalam melakukan deteksi dini penyimpangan tumbuh kembang dan stimulasi pada anak. Metode dalam kegiatan ini dilakukan dengan tahapan yaitu persiapan, sosialisasi, pelatihan, penerapan teknologi, pendampingan dan evaluasi. Terdapat tiga kegiatan utama yang dilakukan yaitu 1) edukasi tentang stunting dan pentingnya pemantauan tumbuh kembang balita, 20 deteksi dini penyimpangan pertumbuhan dan perkembangan balita, dan 3) stimulasi tumbuh kembang sesuai umur dengan permainan edukatif. Evaluasi kegiatan ini menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pemahaman dan keterampilan kelompok mitra dalam menggunakan timbangan, pengukur tinggi badan dan menggunakan KPSP dan stimulasi melakukan deteksi dini dan mampu melakukan stimulasi tumbuh kembang melalui permainan edukatif pada anak. Kegiatan pemberdayaan mitra ini telah meningkatkan kesadaran mitra tentang pentingnya deteksi dini dan stimulasi tumbuh kembang anak sebagai salah satu upaya mencegah stunting.   Kata Kunci: Pemberdayaan, Ibu, Deteksi, Stimulasi, Stunting.   ABSTRACT Stunting is a form of growth failure caused by the prolonged accumulation of nutritional deficiencies. A lack of community understanding in detecting deviations in infant growth is one of the contributing factors to the late detection of stunting in children. This study aimed to improve the knowledge and skills of the Moria mothers’ group in conducting early detection of growth and developmental deviations as well as stimulation in children. The activities were carried out through several stages, including preparation, socialization, training, technology implementation, mentoring, and evaluation. Three main activities were conducted: (1) education about stunting and the importance of monitoring child growth and development, (2) early detection of growth and developmental deviations, and (3) age-appropriate developmental stimulation through educational play. The evaluation showed an increase in the partners’ understanding and skills in using weighing scales, height measurement tools, developmental screening instruments (KPSP), and in performing early detection and developmental stimulation through educational play with children. This community empowerment activity successfully enhanced partners’ awareness of the importance of early detection and developmental stimulation as an effort to prevent stunting. Keywords: Empowerment, Mother, Detection, Stimulation, Stunting.

Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major global health problem, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. The emergence of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis has increased interest in alternative antimicrobial agents from medicinal plants. Red betel leaf (Piper crocatum) and shallot (Allium cepa L.) contain bioactive compounds with potential antibacterial activity. This study aimed to evaluate the inhibitory effect of ethanol extracts of red betel leaf and shallot at different concentrations on the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vitro. Methods: A pre-experimental one-group study was conducted in the Microbiology Laboratory of Santa Elisabeth School of Health Sciences, Medan. Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from sputum samples were cultured and tested using the disk diffusion method. Ethanol extracts of red betel leaf and shallot were prepared and tested at concentrations of 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100%. Phytochemical screening was performed, and inhibition zones were measured for three days. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s HSD post hoc test. Results: Phytochemical analysis identified alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, and saponins in the extracts. The mean inhibition zone diameters increased with extract concentration, ranging from 2.67 ± 0.58 mm at 40% to 11.67 ± 0.58 mm at 100%. One-way ANOVA showed a statistically significant difference among concentrations (F(3, 8) = 134.25, p < .001), and all pairwise comparisons were significant. Conclusion: Ethanol extracts of red betel leaf and shallot demonstrated significant, concentration-dependent inhibitory activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vitro, supporting their potential as complementary antimicrobial agents and warranting further research in nursing and health sciences.

Abstract

Background: The age of 3–4 years is a critical period for children’s language development, strongly influenced by environmental stimulation, particularly from mothers as primary caregivers. Storytelling is a simple and practical method for language stimulation, yet quantitative evidence of its effectiveness in community or family settings remains limited. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the effect of maternal storytelling stimulation on the language development of children aged 3–4 years. Methods: This study employed a quasi-experimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest approach. A total of 44 mother–child pairs with children aged 3–4 years were selected through purposive sampling. Participants received education and structured guidance to implement storytelling-based language stimulation over four weeks. Children’s language development was assessed using a language screening instrument adapted from the KPSP. As the data were not normally distributed, the Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used for analysis with a significance level of 0.05. Results: The findings demonstrated a statistically significant increase in children’s language development scores following the intervention. Conclusion: Maternal stimulation using the storytelling method significantly improves language development in children aged 3–4 years. This approach is recommended as an evidence-based language stimulation strategy at the family and community levels

Abstract

Background: Adequate knowledge of pregnancy danger signs plays a critical role in promoting antenatal care (ANC) compliance. Poor adherence to ANC visits remains a significant contributor to preventable maternal complications. Research aimed to analyze the association between maternal knowledge of pregnancy danger signs and ANC compliance and to identify the most dominant predictors. Methods: An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted among 249 pregnant women. Participants were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaire-based interviews and verification of ANC visits using medical records and Maternal and Child Health (MCH) books. Bivariate associations were tested using the Chi-square test. Variables with p < 0.25 were included in a multiple logistic regression analysis. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. Results: Of the respondents, 55.0% were aged <27 years, 57.0% had education below junior high school, 56.6% were primigravida, and 55.4% lived within 5 km of a health facility. ANC compliance was observed in 55.8% of participants, while 55.8% demonstrated low knowledge of pregnancy danger signs. Bivariate analysis showed significant associations between ANC compliance and maternal age, educational methods, motivation, attitude, parity, distance to health facility, and knowledge (all p = 0.001). Multivariate analysis identified knowledge as the strongest predictor of ANC compliance (p = 0.019; OR = 3.380; 95% CI: 1.222–9.348), adjusted for maternal age (p = 0.048). Conclusion: Maternal knowledge of pregnancy danger signs is the most influential factor associated with ANC compliance. Strengthening targeted health education strategies may improve maternal service utilization.
