Children with cerebral palsy are at high risk for feeding difficulties and malnutrition due to motor impairments and associated conditions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and types of feeding problems and their association with malnutrition in children with cerebral palsy. A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 54 children under five years old with cerebral palsy. Participants were classified into spastic cerebral palsy subtypes such as quadriplegic, hemiplegic, diplegic, or triplegic. Feeding problems were categorized as inappropriate feeding practices, reduced food intake, parental misperception, and food preferences using the Pediatric Symptom Checklist-17. Nutritional status was assessed using weight-for-age percentiles based on WHO growth charts. History of constipation and dysphagia were also recorded. Data analysis included Chi-square and Mann-Whitney U tests. Among the participants, 38.9% had hemiplegia, 33.3% diplegia, and 25.9% quadriplegia. Feeding problems were prevalent, with inappropriate feeding practices being the most common (70.4%). Malnutrition was identified in 59.3% of the children. However, no significant associations were observed between CP subtype or demographic variables and the types of feeding problems. Similarly, the type of feeding problem was not significantly associated with malnutrition. Constipation and dysphagia were reported in 31.5% and 37.0% of participants, respectively, and were significantly associated with nutritional status (p<0.001). In conclusion, feeding problems and malnutrition are common in children with cerebral palsy, with inappropriate feeding practices being the most prevalent issue. Although no significant associations were found between CP subtypes or the types of feeding problems and malnutrition, the findings emphasize the multifactorial nature of feeding challenges.

This study examines the relationship between soft drink consumption and obesity among adolescents. Obesity, a critical public health issue, has shown a rising prevalence globally, including in Indonesia, due to changes in dietary patterns and lifestyle. The research adopts a cross-sectional design conducted at Santo Thomas 1 Private High School in Medan, involving 198 students categorized into obese and non-obese groups based on Body Mass Index (BMI). The findings reveal that frequent soft drink consumption (more than three times a week) significantly increases the risk of obesity (p = 0.0001). Additionally, low physical activity and excessive caloric intake were identified as major contributing factors. Multivariate analysis highlighted low physical activity as the dominant risk factor for obesity, with an odds ratio of 36.351. The study underscores the need for targeted interventions to reduce soft drink consumption and promote healthier lifestyle choices among adolescents to mitigate the adverse effects of obesity on health outcomes.

Delayed detection of critical congenital heart disease (CHD) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Currently, there is a paucity of data on children with critical CHD in Indonesia. The aim of this study was to investigate the factors contributing to delayed diagnosis of critical CHD and its association with clinical outcomes such as mortality, heart failure, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, and ventilator use. A cross-sectional study was conducted using medical records from Haji Adam Malik Medan General Hospital. The study included all children aged 0 to 18 years diagnosed with critical CHD. The statistical analysis was performed by utilizing SPSS version 25.0. A total of 59 subjects were analyzed. The findings revealed a significant relationship between factors such as age, sex, respiratory tract infections, type of CHD, surgical interventions, and underlying syndromic abnormalities with various clinical outcomes. Delayed diagnosis of critical CHD was associated with increased mortality, heart failure, ICU admission, and ventilator use, with these outcomes influenced by the aforementioned factors.

Short stature is a health problem with long-term implications to the future of the children. Short stature condition in children below five years old, known as stunting, may cause cognitive, psychomotor impairment and interfere with productivity on adult period. Main concern in short stature is due to insufficient of dietary intake in long-term period. Parentsâ€™ role in the prevention of short stature is important, therefore, performing education to parents is a crucial task to the government, universities and communities to be done continuously. The objective of this educational counseling was to educate the parents so they would be able to comprehend the relationship of nutritional status to short stature, especially in children below five years old, and level of intelligence in order to prevent the condition of short stature in the future. This activity was held in conjunction with community service program Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat Dosen Wajib Mengabdi Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU) 2019, by the lecturer team of Faculty of Medicine USU in elementary school Yayasan Pendidikan Al-Washliyah Tanjung Rejo, Medan. Educational counseling materials were modules and leaflets distributed to the parents. To evaluate the educational counseling, questionnaires were disposed prior to and after the lecture. The target audience was the parents of elementary school students, amount of 48 people. The results showed mean difference questionnairesâ€™ score of 0.97 (SD 1.76) with 95%CI=0.46-1.49 and p value=0.001 (p<0.05). There was significant difference of parental knowledge to educational counseling material prior to and after the counseling. Concluded, parental knowledge regarding relationship of nutritional status to short stature and level of intelligence is significantly increased through the educational counseling.
