Abstract

Low birth weight (LBW) remains a public health problem that contributes to high rates of neonatal morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to analyse the association between pregnant women's micronutrient intake and the incidence of LBW. The study design was a prospective cohort study involving 210 second to third trimester pregnant women in Padang City in 2025. Micronutrient intake was assessed using the 3x24 hour food recall method, while the baby's birth weight data was obtained during delivery. Chi-square test and logistic regression were used for analysis. The results showed the prevalence of LBW was 15.2%. Intake of iron, zinc, vitamin D, and folic acid were found to be significantly associated with LBW (p < 0.05), while vitamin A and vitamin B12 showed no significant association. Further analysis revealed that iron deficiency was the dominant factor contributing most to the incidence of LBW. These findings confirm the importance of micronutrient fulfilment during pregnancy, both through a nutritionally balanced diet and supplementation, to prevent LBW. Therefore, micronutrient interventions need to be prioritised in maternal and child health programmes, especially through strengthening nutrition counselling and monitoring supplement compliance in antenatal care services.

Abstract

Background. Acute respiratory infections (ARI) are one of the most common health problems affecting children under five years of age (toddlers), especially in developing countries such as Indonesia. Exposure to cigarette smoke in the home environment is a significant environmental determinant of ARI in toddlers and is an important basis for prevention efforts through family education and smoke-free home policies. Methods. This study used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. Data were collected through direct interviews with parents or guardians of toddlers using a prepared questionnaire and confirmation of acute respiratory infection (ISPA) cases through records of visits to health facilities in the last three months. Bivariate analysis was performed using the Chi-Square (2) test. Results. The results of univariate and bivariate analyses showed that the majority of the toddlers in the working area of the Muna District Community Health Centre in the Ambacang Puskesmas work area were exposed to smoke, which was as much as 60%, and more than half, which were 56%, had ARI. Furthermore, the results of bivARIate analysis showed that there was a statistically significant relationship between exposure to smoke and ARI (p = 0.003). Conclusion. The findings of this study provide a strong foundation for health professionals and policymakers to design educational programs and interventions that target reducing exposure to secondhand smoke for the health of children.
