Abstract

Background: Stunting is still a national and global problem because of its impact on the quality of future generations. The government has launched various stunting reduction programs through nutrition-specific and sensitive interventions. However, the scope of interventions is still dominated by specific-nutrition interventions. In addition, the Covid-19 pandemic has resulted in several programs not being able to be implemented properly. Objectives: to analyze the effect of the nutrition-sensitive intervention on the incidence of stunting among toddlers aged 6-24 months during the pandemic Covid-19 Methods: This study was observational analytic with a cross-sectional design. The research was conducted in Lamongan, Sampang, and Probolinggo Regencies from June to July 2022. The sample selection used a simple random sampling technique and a total of 384 toddlers were calculated using the Cohran formula. The sample was added to 455 toddlers to avoid refusal of participation in the study. Primary data were obtained with interviews and anthropometric measurements. All research data were analyzed using the chi-square test and logistic regression Results: The results showed that the availability of adequate latrines affected the incidence of stunting among toddlers aged 6-24 months (p=0.008; OR=2.260; 95%CI: 1.238-4.125). Another variable that affects the incidence of stunting is the age of toddlers (p = 0.001; OR = 3.205; 95% CI: 1.657-6.201). Conclusions: Access to adequate latrines is a nutrition-sensitive intervention that has most influenced the incidence of stunting among toddlers aged 6-24 months during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is an unresolved health problem in the world. There were 21.6% of stunted toddlers in Indonesia in 2022, with a higher proportion in rural areas than in urban areas. The mother's role mainly caused stunting. On the other hand, the role of fathers had not been reviewed much in previous research. Objectives: This study aims to analyze the role of fathers towards stunting among toddlers in rural areas. Methods: The study had a case-control design conducted from April to October 2019. This research involved two populations, namely the control population and the cases. The control population was all non-stunted toddlers aged 24-59 months who lived in Jombang Regency, while the case population was all stunted toddlers aged 24-59 months who lived in Jombang Regency. The authors applied a multistage random sampling. The sample consisted of 79 controls and 79 cases calculated based on the two-population proportion formula. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test, fisher exact test, and logistic regression with α = 5%. Results: Fathers with low education increased the risk of toddlers becoming stunted 2.407 times higher than fathers with high education (p = 0.010; OR = 2.407; 95% CI = 1.231-4.705). Fathers from large families were 1.971 times more likely to have stunted toddlers than fathers from small families (p = 0.042; OR = 1.971; 95% CI = 1.026-3.785). Conclusions: Stunting in toddlers was significantly influenced by father's education. The size of the family also affected a toddler's risk of stunting. Increasing school age should be a priority program for preventing stunting in rural areas. In addition, health campaigns regarding pregnancy planning and birth control need to be carried out on an ongoing basis to reduce the incidence of stunting.
