Abstract

Background: A child’s optimal growth can be indicated by many factors, among them is body height, therefore stunting is one of the evidences of undergrowth. Nutrition, on the other hand, is one of variables affecting growth. This study aimed to examine the nutrition intake, in the form of energy, carbohydrate, protein, and fat in stunted children aged 3–5 years in Jatinangor.Methods: This cross sectional study was carried out in September to October 2014 using the random sampling method. Dietary data from 70 stunted children aged 3–5 years in pre–school and kindegarten located in 9 urban areas in Jatinangor were collected through 3x24 Recall and Food Frequency Questionaire and analyzed.Results: Mean energy intake was 1113.6 kcal and mean carbohydrate intake was 137.4 grams. Mean protein intake was 38.4 gram and mean fat intake was 38.2 gram. Types of food highly consumed as the source of carbohydrate were white rice and biscuit, and as the source of protein were meatball, sausage, and egg. Highest consumed vegetables, fruits and snack were water spinach, cabbage, watermelon, banana, and milk respectively.Conclusions: Mean energy intake, mean carbohydrate intake, and mean fat intake are all below the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) 2013 with individual value of mean energy intake is below RDA 2013 for all subjects. Mean protein intake is slightly above RDA 2013. [AMJ.2016;3(3):364– 70]DOI: 10.15850/amj.v3n3.907

Abstract

Background: Mental disorders, including eating disorders, mostly begin during youth. Moreover, negative body image is found to cause unhealthy eating habits in the context of several cross-cultural settings. This study aimed to examine the correlation between health perception and body image with eating habitsamong high school students.Methods: A structured, anonymous questionnaire was distributed to students of a private high school in Bandung, Indonesia in June-October 2014. The questionnaire included questions about health perception, body image, eating habits, body weight and height, and also other demographic parameters. The school was selected as the study object through purposive sampling, and 140 high school students (72 male and 68 female) were ramdomly selected.Results: Male and female did not show considerable differences in health perceptions. Out of 13 statements, 12 statements of male respondents showed better body image than female. While in eating habits statements, female respondents seemed to maintain healthier eating habits than male respondents. No significant correlation was observed between body image and eating habits (r=-0.015, p=0.858). There was significant correlation between health perception and eating habits (r=0.374, p<0.001). Correlation between sex andeating habits was found (p=0.020), there was not significant relationship between eating habits and Body Mass Index (BMI) (p=0.368).Conclusions: The negative relationship between body image and eating habits is not significant. However there was a significant positive relationship between health perception and eating habits. Furthermore, there was correlation between sex and eating habits, while the positive relationship between eating habits and BMI was still not found. [AMJ.2016;3(2):216–21]DOI: 10.15850/amj.v3n2.770

Abstract

Background: Ascariasis is one of the most frequent helminthias is that occurred in school-age children. Commonly, severe intensity of infection will seriously affect the nutritional and anemic status of the students. The aim of this study was to determine the association of ascariasis with nutritional and anemic status in early school-age students. Methods: An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted based on the secondary data from Jatinangor Cohort. The secondary data of 74 students who met the criteria were included in this study. Data collection was conducted in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics from August to September 2014. The data obtained was analyzed based on the characteristics of the students regarding gender, age, class, parents’ education, ascariasis, nutritional and anemic status. Then, the data were further analyzed to determine the association of ascariasis with nutritional and anemic status of the students using the chi square test or Fisher test if the requirement was not fulfilled.Results: Sixteen (22%) students were having Ascaris lumbricoides infection, six (8.1%) students were thin and seventeen (23%) students were anemic. There was no statistically significant association found of Ascaris lumbricoides infection with nutritional and anemic status in early school-age students (P value <0.05) in this study.Conclusions: There is no statistically significant association of Ascaris lumbricoides infection with nutritional and anemic status of the early school-age students.

Abstract

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) in children has a long-lived impact, such as an increased risk of bacterial infection. Infection may accelerate disease progression, making early detection crucial. Inflammatory markers typically used for bacterial infection are C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and Procalcitonin (PCT). This study aimed to determine the correlation between levels of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and immature-to-total-neutrophil ratio (I/T ratio) to bacterial infection in children with CKD as indicated by the serum levels of CRP and PCT.Methods: Observational analysis with a cross-sectional design was conducted from January 2019 to November 2021 in children from 3 months to 18 years old with CKD and bacterial infection.  Retrospective data were obtained from medical records at Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Bandung. Correlation analysis was performed (SPSS program) at a 95% confidence level, and results were considered significant if the p-value <0.05.Results: There were 42 children, and 57% were female; with a median age of 13 years (range 1–17 years). Most patients had normal nutritional status (55%) although 40% were malnourished. Correlation analysis between I/T ratio and NLR with PCT was positive, with r=0.284 (p<0.05) and r=0.265 (p<0.05), respectively, whereas there was no significant correlation of I/T ratio (r=0,154; p>0.05) and NLR (r=0,188; p>0.05) to CRP.Conclusions: NLR and I/T ratios have a significant positive correlation with PCT levels but not with CRP levels. NRL and I/T ratios can be considered as alternative markers for diagnosing CKD in children with a bacterial infection.

Abstract

Background: Overweight and obesity in adolescents are associated with dyslipidemia and may contribute to early cardiovascular remodelling. Speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) is a sensitive imaging technique capable of detecting early myocardial functional alterations before the onset of clinical symptoms. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between cardiac chamber dimensions, left ventricular (LV) geometry and function, and lipid profiles in overweight and obese adolescents. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from June to September 2023, involving 51 overweight and obese adolescents aged 15–18 years in Bandung, Indonesia. Anthropometric measurements, fasting lipid profiles (triglycerides, total cholesterol, LDL, HDL), and transthoracic echocardiography were obtained. LV dimensions, LV mass index (LVMI), ejection fraction (EF), fractional shortening (FS), and global longitudinal strain (GLS) were assessed. Associations were analyzed using Pearson correlation.Results: Participants were predominantly male (64.7%) with a mean age of 16.3±0.6 years. Overweight (47.1%) and obesity (52.9%) were almost equally distributed with a mean BMI of 29.6±4.1 kg/m². LVMI correlated negatively with total cholesterol (r=−0.356; p=0.005), HDL (r=−0.351; p=0.006), and LDL (r=−0.280; p=0.023). The LV posterior wall thickness and LV end-diastolic diameter were also inversely correlated with selected lipid parameters. Interventricular septal thickness in systole correlated positively with triglycerides (r=0.270; p=0.028). No significant correlations were found between lipid profiles and LV function parameters, including EF, FS, and GLS (p>0.05).Conclusions: In overweight and obese adolescents, lipid profiles are associated with early alterations in LV structural dimensions while LV systolic function remains preserved. These findings support the importance of early cardiovascular screening and lifestyle modification to reduce future cardiometabolic risk.
