Abstract

Background: Low birth weight (LBW) remains a significant concern, particularly for newborn mortality in the neonatal period. It serves as a crucial public health indicator for maternal health, nutrition, access to healthcare services, and poverty.  LBW is not solely influenced by pre-pregnancy maternal characteristics, but also by risk factors encountered during pregnancy. Objective: Knowing the factors related to the incidence of low birth weight in laboring mothers. Method: This analytic observational study employed a cross-sectional approach. A sample of 308 mothers giving birth were recruited using purposive sampling at Idaman Hospital, Banjarbaru. Categorical data is systematically presented in a frequency distribution table, and the associations between variables are statistically analyzed using the Chi-square test, utilizing SPSS software for accurate computation and interpretation of results. Results: The results showed that 71.8% of mothers delivering babies were not at risk (20-35 years old), 72.1% were not anemic, 77.3% did not experience pregnancy-induced hypertension, 78.6% did not have premature rupture of membranes and 76% did not deliver LBW babies. Statistical analysis revealed significant relationships between age (p-value = 0.024), anemia (p-value = 0.009), pregnancy-induced hypertension (p-value = 0.014), and premature rupture of membranes (p-value = 0.031) with the incidence of LBW. Conclusion: This study shows the association between age, anemia, pregnancy-induced hypertension, and premature rupture of membranes with the incidence of LBW.

Abstract

Background: Stunting remains a significant public health issue in Indonesia, particularly in rural regions such as Bangun Harjo Village, Central Kalimantan. Stunting affects not only physical growth but also cognitive development, leading to long-term impacts on productivity, health, and quality of life. Despite various government interventions, stunting continues to prevail due to poor maternal nutrition knowledge, inadequate feeding practices, and socio-economic challenges. Case presentation: In Bangun Harjo Village, high stunting rates among toddlers are largely attributed to improper complementary feeding (MPASI) and limited maternal understanding of nutrition. The Kupang Island Health Center initiated a community service intervention called "AKUR PENTING" (Stunting Prevention Kitchen Action) aimed at educating postpartum mothers and mothers of toddlers about proper feeding practices using locally available, nutrient-rich foods. The program included cooking demonstrations, distribution of educational materials, and active involvement of local healthcare workers. Discussion: The intervention significantly improved maternal knowledge about nutrition, with participants showing enthusiasm and engagement in learning how to prepare balanced meals. However, sustained behavior change and addressing broader socio-economic issues such as poverty and food insecurity remain challenges. Community-based interventions, combined with government support and policies, are critical to ensuring long-term success in reducing stunting. Conclusion: The AKUR PENTING intervention demonstrated the importance of maternal education and community engagement in stunting prevention. While the program successfully increased awareness and practical skills, comprehensive, multi-sectoral efforts are necessary to address the root causes of stunting, including socio-economic disparities and food insecurity.

Abstract

Background: Stunting remains a critical public health challenge in Indonesia, with a national prevalence of 21.6%, reflecting long-term nutritional deprivation and irreversible developmental impairments. Despite lower stunting rates (4.3%) at Pemurus Baru Community Health Center, local disparities persist, necessitating investigation into perinatal determinants like birth weight, length, and gestational age, which may establish biological pathways to stunting. Objective:  This study aimed to analyze the association between adverse birth history and stunting incidence among toddlers aged 12–60 months. Methods: A case-control design was employed, retrospectively comparing 63 stunted children (cases) with 63 non-stunted controls matched by age and location. Data were extracted from perinatal records (2019–2023) and analyzed for birth weight, length, and preterm status. Results: The study revealed significant differences in birth history between stunted and non-stunted toddlers. The case group showed higher prevalence of low birth weight (36.5% vs 12.7%), short birth length (60.3% vs 39.1%), and preterm birth (36.5% vs 14.3%) compared to controls. All three birth parameters demonstrated substantial disparities between groups, with the case group consistently exhibiting worse outcomes across all measured indicators. Conclusion:  Intrauterine growth restriction, maternal malnutrition, and premature delivery are stronger predictors of stunting than postnatal factors alone. Prevention strategies must prioritize early interventions during the first 1,000 days, including prenatal nutritional supplementation and fetal growth monitoring, supported by policy reforms integrating birth history into surveillance systems.
