Abstract

Background: The stunting prevalence in Central Java Province remains high. Six key messages, i.e. iron tablet supplementation, healthy latrines, exclusive breastfeeding, Integrated Health Care Post (Posyandu) visit, hand washing, and Antenatal Care visit are the efforts to reduce the prevalence of stunting. Objectives: This study aimed to analyse the relationship between the behaviour of the six key messages and the stunting prevalence in four districts of Central Java Province. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Brebes Regency, Tegal Regency, Banyumas Regency, and Semarang City with 424 mothers who have under two-year-old children randomly selected as sample. Data were collected by interview using a structured questionnaire with the results grouped into attitude and practices categories. The body’s weight and length were measured by a digital scale and infantometer. Data were analysed using the chi-square test. Results: The findings indicated that 21.5% of children under two had stunting. Besides, behaviour regarding six key messages were mostly good. There was no association between mothers' iron tablet consumption behaviour and the nutritional status of under-two children. There was an association between maternal attitudes about exclusive breastfeeding and knowledge about hand washing with length for age index (p=0.004). There was also an association between antenatal care and Posyandu visits practice with weight for age index (p=0.004 and 0.018). There was a relationship between attitude regarding the use of latrines and the weight for length index (p=0.001). Conclusions: Only the key messages of exclusive breastfeeding attitude, antenatal care visit practice, Posyandu visit practice, and hand washing attitude were associated with the nutritional status of under-two children.

Abstract

Background: Obesity in children under five years of age is an emerging public health concern in Indonesia, where birth history and family characteristics may play a significant role. Objectives: This study aimed to analyze factors associated with obesity among toddlers in Central Java, Indonesia, using data from the 2022 Indonesian Nutritional Status Survey (SSGI). Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with a weighted sample of 21,987 toddlers (aged 0–59 months) from six cities and 29 districts in Central Java. Independent variables included toddler characteristics (sex, stunting at birth), family factors (area of residence, socioeconomic status), and maternal factors (marital status, education, employment, weight monitoring). Complex samples analysis was performed using chi-square tests for bivariate associations and multiple logistic regression for multivariate analysis, with a significance level of α=0.05. Results: Obesity prevalence was low at 1.4% (n=304). Bivariate analysis identified significant associations with stunting at birth (p-value=0.024), socioeconomic status (p-value<0.001), maternal education (p-value<0.001), and maternal employment (p-value<0.001). In the multivariate model, higher socioeconomic status (aOR=1.94, 95% CI=1.34–2.83, p-value<0.001) and maternal employment (aOR=1.42, 95% CI =1.03–1.96, p-value=0.032) were significant predictors of obesity. Stunting at birth approached significance (aOR=0.44, 95% CI=0.19–1.02, p-value=0.056). Sex, area of residence, marital status, maternal education, and weight monitoring were not significant predictors of childhood obesity. Conclusions: Higher socioeconomic status and maternal employment are key risk factors for toddler obesity in Central Java.
