Abstract

Background: The prevalence of dental caries in Indonesia is still high. The pain caused by dental caries could interfere with children’s ability to eat and even their growth. This study aimed to discover the proportion of dental caries severity related to nutritional status in children aged 3–5 years.Methods: This descriptive study was carried out in 3 Pre-school Education Centers (Pendidikan Anak Usia Dini, PAUD) in the sub-district of Jatinangor in September 2014. Sixty four children were selected through cluster random sampling as samples. The degree of caries was measured by def-t index. Nutritional status was determined by anthropometric measurements, i.e. body weight (BW)/body height (BH) or body mass index (BMI)/Age index.Results: There were 59 (92%) children suffered from dental caries out of which 48 (75%) children was severe, 6 (9%) children was moderate, and 10 (16%) children was mild. Furthermore, 18 (28%) children were mildly undernourished and 46 (72%) were well-nourished. Out of all the children with severe dental caries, 16 (34%) children had mild undernourishment while out of all the children with moderate-mild dental caries, 2 (12%) children had mild undernourishment.Conclusions: Children aged 3-5 years in the sub-district of Jatinangor have a relatively severe dental caries even though their nutritional status are generally good. Mildly undernourished children largely come from the group with severe dental caries. [AMJ.2016;3(2):314–8] DOI: 10.15850/amj.v3n2.464

Abstract

Background: The vitamin A supplementation program conducted every February and August  aims to reduce children morbidity and mortality. Mother’s knowledge on the importance of vitamin A is crucial to succeeding this program. This study aimed to examine the coverage of the program among under-five children and the mother’s knowledge about vitamin A supplementation in Hegarmanah Village, Jatinangor in August 2014.Methods: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study involving mothers of children aged 6−59 months in eight RWs in Hegarmanah Village. The mothers were interviewed to find out whether their children received vitamin A supplementation. Additional questionnaire-based data about mother’s knowledge on vitamin A was also collected. The subjects in this study were the mothers of 220 under-five children. Data collection was obtained by direct interviews with the mothers during their visit to the Puskesmas or during home visits to  children who missed the Posyandu appointments.Results: Two hundred and fourteen (97.27%) children received vitamin A supplementation and only 6 (2.73%) did not. The questionnaires revealed that 94 children (96%) received vitamin A, while 4 (4%) did not. The mother’s level of knowledge in vitamin A was either poor (1%), moderate (37%), or good (62%).Conclusions: The coverage of vitamin A supplementation in Hegarmanah Village reaches 97.27% and the mother’s understanding about vitamin A is generally good. DOI: 10.15850/amj.v4n2.1079

Abstract

Pemberian makanan yang kurang pada bulan-bulan pertama kehidupan akan mempunyai dampak negatif paling besar terhadap pertumbuhan dan perkembangan anak. Saat ini direkomendasikan pemberian air susu ibu (ASI) secara eksklusif sampai bayi berusia 4 – 6 bulan. Untuk menjawab apakah ibuibu di Indonesia sanggup memproduksi dan memberikan kepada bayinya ASI yang cukup untuk menjamin tumbuh kembang optimal sekurang-kurangnya untuk 4 bulan pertama, dilakukan pemantauan berat badan dan panjang badan bayi-bayi yang mendapat ASI eksklusif. Dari 100 ibu bersalin yang diteliti, 56 bayinya (56%) diberi ASI eksklusif sampai usia 4 bulan, terdiri dari 27 bayi perempuan dan 29 bayi laki-laki. Median berat badan dan panjang badan bayi perempuan dari usia 0, 1, 2, 3, dan 4 bulan berturut-turut : 3000, 3800, 4200, 4500, 6000 gram dan 49,0; 52,5; 55,9; 58,5; 61,0 sentimeter. Bila dibandingkan dengan standar berat badan terhadap umur (BB/U) dan panjang badan terhadap umur (PB/U) dari WHO/NCHS, maka didapat ZSci-BB/U berturut-turut -0,50; - 0,43; -0,42; -0,40; -0,40 dan ZSci-PB/U berturut-turut -0,42; -0,43;, -0,38; -0,40; -0,40. Median berat badan dan panjang badan bayi laki-laki : 3150, 4050, 4900, 5700, 6300 gram dan 50,0; 53,8; 57,2; 60,0; 62,0 sentimeter. ZSci-BB/U berturut-turut : -0,30; -0,36; -0,37; -0,33; -0,36, dan ZSci-PB/U : -0,22; -0,33; - 0,35; -0,42; dan -0,63. Hasil penelitian ini memperlihatkan bahwa pemberian ASI secara eksklusif sampai usia 4 bulan dapat menjamin pertumbuhan bayi yang optimal (Z-score > -2 skor simpang baku).

Abstract

Background Risk of tuberculosis (TB) transmission is greatest if achild has household contact with positive acid fast bacilli (AFB)adult pulmonary TB. Risk of TB transmission from negative AFBadult pulmonary TB to underfive children is unknown.Objective To find out the prevalence of TB infection and diseaseamong underfive children in household contacts with negativeAFB adult pulmonary TB.Methods The study was performed at Balai Kesehatan ParuMasyarakat (BKPM) Bandung on underfive children who live inthe same house with negative AFB adult pulmonary TB fromFebruary to July 2006. History taking, physical examination,anthropometric measurement, chest radiographs, and tuberculinskin test were performed to all study subjects. Subjects were thencategorized as TB infection(positive tuberculin test only) or disease(defined based on Pulmonology Workgroup of IndonesianPaediatrics Council criteria, 2005).Results Sixty one children (32 males and 29 females) had contactwith 54 negative AFB adults pulmonary TB. Tuberculosis infectionwas found in six (10%), while disease was found in 10 (16%)children. The prevalence of TB infection was 10% (95% CI2.3;17.3) while prevalence of TB disease was 16% (95% CI7.1;24.7).Conclusion Tuberculosis infection and disease prevalence isconsiderably high in household contact with negative EFB adultpulmonary TB.
