Abstract

Background: Exclusive breastfeeding is provided to infants from birth to 6 months of age without supplementary or substitution food and drink. Breastmilk contains nutrients and protective factors that can reduce morbidity and mortality risks of children. This study aimed to determine the effect of maternal nutritional status, parity, employment status, family income, health personnel support, subjective norm, and stratification status of community health center (posyandu), on exclusive breastfeeding in Banjarsari Sub-District, Surakarta.Subjects and Method: This was an analytic observational study with cross sectional design. The study was conducted in Banjarsari sub-district, Surakarta, Central Java, from October 17 to November 7, 2017. Twenty five posyandus were selected by stratified random sampling. Of the posyandus selected, 200 lactating mothers were selected by simple random sampling. The dependent variable was exclusive breastfeeding. The independent variables were maternal nutritional status, parity, employment status, family income, subjective norm, and health personnel support. The data were collected using a set of questionnaire and analyzed by multilevel logistic regression in Stata 13.Results: The likelihood of exclusive breastfeeding increased with better maternal nutritional status (b= 1.65; 95% CI= 0.14 to 3.17; p= 0.032), multi parity (b= 1.72; 95% CI= 0.57 to 2.86; p= 0.003), working outside the house (b= -2.94; 95% CI= -3.99 to -1.88; p= 0.001), higher family income (b= -1.94; 95% CI= -3.13 to -0.76; p= 0.001), strong health personnel support (b= 1.13; 95% CI= 0.02 to 2.25; p= 0.046), and positive subjective norm (b= 1.20; 95% CI= 0.14 to 2.25; p= 0.025). Posyandu showed strong contextual effect on exclusive breastfeeding with intra-class correlation (ICC)= 28.87%.Conclusion: The likelihood of exclusive breastfeeding increases with better maternal nutritional status, multi parity, working outside the house, higher family income, strong health personnel support, and positive subjective norm.Keyword: exclusive breastfeeding, multilevel analysis, maternal nutritional status, parity, employment status, family income, health personnel support, subjective norm, and posyanduCorrespondence: Prabawati Sinta.

Abstract

Background: Speech and language disorder if untreated may cause deficiency in reading, verbal, psychosocial, behavioral, and academic abilities. Studies have shown that birthweight, body length at birth, maternal education, parenting style, maternal stress, income at pregnancy, and current income can influence child development. This study aimed to determine the biopsychosocial factors, life course perspective, and their influences on language development in children. Subject and Method: This was an analytic observational study using case control design. The study was conducted in Surakarta, Central Java, from February to May 2017. A sample of 140 children aged 2 to 5 years old were selected for this study by fixed disease sampling with 1:3 ratio between case (children with speech and language disorder) and control (children without such disorder). The dependent variable was child speech and language development. The independent variables were birthweight, body length at birth, maternal education, maternal stress, parenting style, family income at pregnancy, and current family income. The data were collected by a set of questionnaire and medical record. The data on speech and language ability was measured by Denver II questionnaire. Path analysis was employed for data analysis.Results: Language development was directly and positively affected by democratic parenting style (b=0.46; SE=0.08; p<0.001), permissive parenting style (b=0.10; SE=0.11; p=0.020), birthweight (b=0.12; SE=0.02; p=0.002), maternal education (b=0.11; SE=0.31; p=0.007), maternal stress (b=-0.13; SE=0.04; p=0.013). Language development directly and negatively affected by autoritarian parenting style (b=-0.37; SE=0.09; p<0.001). Language development was indirectly affected by body length at birth, family income at pregnancy, and current family income.Conclusion: Language development is directly affected by parenting style, birthweight, maternal education, maternal stress.Keywords: biopsychosocial, life course, language development, children 2 to 5 years old, path analysisCorrespondence: Latifah Safriana.

Abstract

Background: Undernutrition by height-for-age standard starts during pregnancy and continues to the first two years of life. Linear growth disorders among children under five years are associated with morbidity, mortality, loss of physical growth potential, reduced neurological development, reduced cognitive functions, and increased risks of adulthood chronic diseases. In 2015, the number of undernourished children under five (height-for-age) reached 156 million globally. Purworejo regency was an area with the second highest under­nutrition cases in Central Java in 2014. This study aimed to analyze the life-course epidemiology perspectives on the socio-economic factors contributing to the nutritional status of the children aged two to five years in Purworejo regency, Central Java.Subjects and Method: This was an observational analytical study with case control design. This study was conducted in Purworejo, Kaligesing, and Bruno sub-districts, Purworejo Regency, Central Java in February to March 2017. A total sample 160 children aged two to five years and their mothers were selected by fixed disease sampling. There were 37 children in the case groups, and 113 children in the control groups. The independent variables included family income, maternal age, maternal nutritional status (mid upper arm circumference), birth length, exclusive breastfeeding and the children’s history of illness. The dependent variable was the children’s nutritional status (height-for-age/HAZ). Data on the children’s height were collected using microtoise. Other data were collected by maternal and children health (MCH) books and a set of questionnaires. The data were analyzed using path analysis.Results: Nutritional status of children under five (height-for-age/HAZ) was affected by family income (x Rp 100,000) (b=0.03; SE=0.24; p<0.001), maternal age (years) (b=0.02; SE=0.02; p=0.160), maternal nutritional status/MUAC (cm) (b=0.08; SE=0.05; p=0.066), birth length (cm) (b=0.22; SE=0.05; p<0.001), exclusive breastfeeding (b= 0.03; SE=0.16; p=0.080), and the absence of illness (b=0.39; SE=0.14; p=0.007).Conclusion: Nutritional status of the children under five (height-for-age/HAZ) is affected by family income, birth length, exclusive breastfeeding, maternal age, maternal nutritional status, and the absence of illness.Keywords: nutritional status, children under five, life-course epidemiology, socio-economicCorrespondence: Ika Yuli Ayuningrum.

Abstract

Background: Low birthweight (LBW) is one of the primary causes of infant mortality. It shares 27% of infant mortality rate (IMR). The Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey in 2007 reported that the IMR was 34 deaths per 1,000 live births. As much as 30.3% of this rate was accounted by LBW. As such LBW is an important global public health issue. Countries arround the world have committed to overcome this problem. This study aimed to investigate the effects of maternal education, psychosocial stress, nutritional status at pregnancy, and family income, on birthweight.Subjects and Method: This was an observational analytic study with case control design. The study was conducted in Ngetos community health center, Nganjuk, East Java, from May to June, 2017. A total sample of 120 were selected for this study by fixed disease sampling, compresing 40 infants with low birthweight and 80 infants with normal birthweight. The dependent variable was birthweight. The independent variables were maternal education, psychosocial stress, nutritional status at pregnancy (middle-upper arm circumference, MUAC), maternal anemia, and family income. MUAC was measured by MUAC measuring tape. Hemoglobin concetration was measured by Sahli meter. Psychosocial stress was measured by Holmes and Rahe stress scale. The other variables were measured by a set of questionnaire. Path analysis was used for data analysis.Results: MUAC ≥23.5 cm (b= -0.80, SE= 0.57; p=0.064), hemoglobin concetration ≥11 g/dL (b= -120.16, SE= 45.14, p=0.008), and low psychosocial stress (b= -0.80, SE= 0.57, p=0.164) directly and negatively affected low birthweight. Maternal education ≥Senior High School (b= 1.28, SE = 0.056, p= 0.022), psychosocial stress (b= -0.001, SE<0.001, p=0.097), and family income (b= 0.97, SE= 0.46, p=0.036) positively affected MUAC. MUAC ≥23.5 cm positively affected hemoglobin concentration ≥11 g/dL (b= 0.19, SE = 20.84, p<0.001).Conclusion: MUAC, hemoglobin concetration, and low psychosocial stress directly and negatively affect low birthweight.Keywords: low birthweight, MUAC, maternal anemia, psychosocial stress, family incomeCorrespondence: Dhewi Nurahmawati.

Abstract

Background: In theory, infant massage is beneficial for improving sleep quality, gross and fine motor development. Infants aged 3-6 months are able to receive stimulation that may help develop gross and fine motor development. Massage may improve brain function and raise the release of growth hormone, and strengthen muscle. This study aimed to determine of the effect of massage on sleep quality, gross and fine motor development among infant aged 3-6 months.Subject and Method: This was a randomized controlled trial, conducted in Magelang, Central Java, from 1 August to 16 September 2016. A total of 60 infants in Azza Momby Spa, Magelang was selected for this study by simple random sampling. This sample was then allocated at random into massage group (n1=30) and control group (n2=30). The independent variable was infant massage. The dependent variables were sleep quality, gross and fine motor development. The data was collected by using questionnaire. The difference of dependent variables between the two groups were tested by Mann-Whitney.Results: After intervention, infants in the massage group (median=2.00; SD=1.80) slept better than the control group (median=0.00; SD=0.95), and it was statistically significant (p<0.001). Infants in the massage group (median=0.00; SD=0.81) had better gross motor development than the control group (median=0.00; SD=0.72), and it was statistically significant (p=0.043). Infants in the massage group (median=0.00; SD=0.81) had better fine motor development than in the control group (median=0.00; SD=0.48), and it was statistically significant (p=0.018).Conclusion: Massage is effective to improve sleep quality, gross and fine motor development, in infants aged 3-6 months.Keywords: massage, sleep quality, gross and fine motor development, infantCorrespondence: Nurry Ayuningtyas Kusumastuti.

Abstract

Background: Exclusive breastfeeding is provision of breast milk for infants from 0 to 6 months of age with no additional food or drink intake. Provision of medicine, vitamin, and mineral is allowable during the period of exclusive breastfeeding. There is a lack of studies examining factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding in Surabaya using multilevel analysis. This study aimed to examine factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding in Surabaya using multilevel analysis.Subjects and Method: This was an analytic observational study with a cross sectional design. The study was carried out at Gunung Anyar community health center (puskesmas), Surabaya, East Java, Indonesia. A total of 25 puskesmas was selected by stratified random sampling, covering both accredited and non-accredited puskesmas. A total of 8 lactating mothers from each puskesmas were selected by simple random sampling. The dependent variable was exclusive breastfeeding. The independent variables were subjective norm, leisure time for breastfeeding, attitude, husband support, family support, and health personnel support. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multilevel logistic regression.Results: Exclusive breastfeeding was positively affected by positive subjective norm (b=4.31; 95% CI= 1.63 to 6.99; p=0.002), leisure time for breastfeeding (b=3.97; 95% CI= 1.12 to 6.81; p=0.006), positive attitude (b=3.01; 95% CI= 0.57 to 5.45; p=0.016), strong husband support (b=2.39; 95% CI= 0.29 to 4.51; p=0.026), strong family support (b=2.71; 95% CI= 0.46 to 4.97; p=0.018), and strong health personnel support (b=4.13; 95% CI= 1.28 to 6.99; p=0.005). Posyandu showed strong contextual effect on exclusive breastfeeding with intra-class correlation (ICC)= 69.47%.Conclusion: Exclusive breastfeeding is positively affected by positive subjective norm, leisure time for breastfeeding, positive attitude, strong husband support, strong family support, and strong health personnel support.Keywords: exclusive breastfeeding, subjective norm, attitude, husband support, health personnel supportCorrespondence:Zummatul Atika.

Abstract

Background: Child overweight and obesity are an important public health issue worldwide. Overweight and obese children are likely to stay obese into adulthood and more likely to develop non-communicable diseases like diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. This study aimed to determine factors associated with overweight among children under five in Kediri, East Java, using a multilevel analysis model.Subjects and Method: This was a case control study conducted at 25 posyandus (integrated family health posts) in Kediri, East Java, from April to May 2018. A sample of 200 children under five was selected by fixed disease sampling. Posyandu was selected by stratified random sampling. Children were located at level 1 and posyandu at level 2 in the multilevel analysis model. The dependent variable was overweight. The independent variables were maternal body mass index (BMI), exclusive breastfeeding, calorie intake, feeding pattern, and nutritional status monitoring. Overweight status was measured by weight for height z-score. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multilevel logistic regression model run in Stata 13.Results: Maternal BMI ?25 (b= 0.72; 95% CI= -0.98 to 1.54; p= 0.085) and calorie intake exceeding the recommended allowance (b= 1.45; 95% CI= 0.59 to 2.31; p= 0.001) increased the risk of overweight in children under five. Good feeding pattern (b= -1.11; 95% CI= -2.15 to -0.08; p= 0.034), exclusive breastfeeding (b= -0.97; 95% CI= -1.98 to 0.02; p= 0.057), and regular nutritional status monitoring (b= -4.34; 95% CI= -6.42 to -2.21; p<0.001) decreased the risk of overweight. Posyandu showed negligible contextual effect on the incidence of child overweight with ICC= 0.98%.Conclusion: Maternal BMI ?25 and calorie intake exceeding the recommended allowance increase the risk of overweight in children under five. Good feeding pattern, exclusive breastfeeding, and regular nutritional status monitoring decrease the risk of overweight in children under five. Posyandu has a negligible contextual effect on child overweight.Keywords: overweight, children under five, exclusive breastfeeding, maternal body mass index, multilevel analysisCorrespondence:Alfadefi Khaliatunnisak.

Abstract

Pemerintah Surakarta menyelenggarakan program kelompok pendukung ibu untuk meningkatkan cakupan ASI eksklusif. Penelitian cross sectional ini bertujuan menganalisis perbedaan pengetahuan, sikap, dan tindakan ASI eksklusif antara ibu-ibu yang mengikuti dan tidak mengikuti pada tahun 2014. Populasi penelitian adalah ibu-ibu yang memiliki bayi berusia 6-24 bulan. Besar sampel yaitu 384. Hasil uji Mann-Whitney menunjukkan bahwa pengetahuan dan sikap tentang ASI eksklusif pada ibu-ibu yang mengikuti program pendukung ibu lebih tinggi secara bermakna dibanding ibu-ibu yang tidak mengikuti (p=0,04  dan p=0,001). Uji Chi-Square menunjukkan bahwa tidak terdapat perbedaan  tindakan yang bermakna pada kelompok tersebut (p=0,82). Regresi logistik dilanjutkan tes stratifikasi menunjukkan bahwa dukungan keluarga lain (selain suami) merupakan variabel perancu. Kesimpulannya yaitu ibu-ibu yang mengikuti program pendukung ibu memiliki pengetahuan dan sikap yang lebih tinggi secara bermakna dibanding yang tidak mengikuti. Surakarta government established mother support group program to increase covering of exclusive breastfeeding. This cross sectional study aimed to analyze the difference of knowledge, attitude, and practice of exclusive breastfeeding among mothers who followed and did not follow in 2014.  The population was mothers whose babies aged 6-24 months old. Sample size was 384. The results of the Mann-Whitney test shows that knowledge and attitude about exclusive breastfeeding in mothers who follow mother support group program significantly higher than mothers who did not follow (p=0,04 and p=0,001). The chi-square test shows that there is not significant difference practice in those group (p=0,82). Logistic regression continued with stratification test showed that other family support (besides her husband) is a confounding variable. The conclusion shows that mothers who follow the program have significantly higher knowledge and attitude about exclusive breastfeeding than mothers who did not.

The study was conducted at Loceret Community Health Center, Nganjuk District, East Java, from March to April 2017. A sample of 136 children under five years old were selected for this study  by fixed exposure sampling.  The variable dependent was nutritional status measured in weight for age. The independent variables were dietary intake, history of infection disease, maternal stress, maternal education, family income, and environmental sanitation. The data were collected by anthropometry, medical record, and questionnaire. The data were analyzed with path analysis.Results: Weight for age of children under five was affected by dietary intake (b= 0.23, SE<0.001, p= 0.003), maternal education (b= 0.72, S.E= 0.28, p= 0.012), and history of infectious disease (b=0.80; SE= 0.29; p= 0.007). History of infectious disease was affected by environmental sanitation  (b=0.31; SE<0.001; p<0.001), and family income (b= 0.25, SE= 0.05, p<0.001). Dietary intake was affected by family income (b= 0.58, SE= 0.21, p= 0.007), history of infectious disease (b= 12.31; SE= 3.20; p<0.001), and maternal education (b=7.39; SE=3.09, p=0.017). Maternal stress was affected by family income (b=-0.16; SE= 0.06; p= 0.008).Conclusion: Weight for age of children under five was directly affected by dietary intake, maternal education, and history of infectious disease. Weight for age of children under five was indirectly affected by environmental sanitation, family income, history of infectious disease, and maternal education.Keywords: biopsychosocial, path analysis, environmental sanitation, nutritional statusCorrespondence: Wiwen Indita.
