Abstract

Optimizing the health and nutritional status of mothers during pregnancy can reduce the risk of stunting, with prevalence among children under five, in which the undernutrition condition was still high. It was about 24.4%. The research objective is to determine the association between maternal characteristics with nutritional status in the first trimester. This cross-sectional study involved 52 pregnant women in the first trimester. This study was conducted in the working area of health centers in Padang City 2022 which had a high prevalence of undernutrition problems. Data analysis was carried out using univariate tests and bivariate tests using chi-square with 95% CI and a significance level of p-value 0.05. The analysis results showed a significant relationship between BMI before pregnancy with nutritional status in the first trimester among pregnant women (p-value = 0.000). There is no relationship between education, occupation, age, and parity of the mother with nutritional status in the first trimester. Suggestions for pregnant women are to know their nutritional status, consume nutritious foods that are needed for fetal growth, and reduce the risk of low birth weight and stunting.

Abstract

Background: Anemia among reproductive-age women can lead to significant nutritional issues for future generations. In Indonesia, the anemia prevalence rate among women is alarmingly high at 30.44%. A key strategy to reduce anemia is the distribution of iron tablets (Fe) in schools. Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of the iron tablet program in schools and its relationship to the incidence of anemia among adolescent girls in Padang City. Methods: A mixed-methods approach was utilized, combining quantitative and qualitative techniques. A cross-sectional design assessed the relationship between iron tablet distribution and anemia prevalence. Qualitative data were gathered through in-depth interviews to explore the program's implementation. The study involved two schools in Padang City, randomly selecting a sample of 274 adolescent girls. Data were collected using standardized instruments, analyzed with statistical software, and examined using multiple logistic regression tests. Results: The iron tablets program hasn’t been optimally implemented. The study found 28.1% of adolescent girls were anemic. An iron tablet consumption history (p-value=0.035), the quantity consumed (p-value=0.034), father's education level (p-value=0.039), and nutritional knowledge (p-value=0.032) related with anemic. Girls who did not consume iron tablets were 3.03 times more likely to be anemic. Many expressed concerns about the potential negative effects of iron tablets. Conclusions: This study reveals a troubling prevalence of anemia among adolescent girls, with nearly one-third affected. Inadequate iron tablet consumption, along with parental education and nutritional knowledge, significantly contributes to this issue. Concerns about side effects emphasize the urgent need for targeted educational interventions.

Abstract

Nagari Pandai Sikek West Sumatra experienced a flash flood disaster that caused infrastructure damage, disruption of basic services, and decreased the quality of life of the community, especially vulnerable groups. This activity aims to improve the quality of life and health of post-disaster communities through an integrated approach in the fields of health and disaster management. The quality of life of the community is measured through a composite approach that includes knowledge improvement (pre- and post-tests), behavioral changes and participation in activities, simple health conditions (blood pressure and physical activity), waste bank and maggot-based environmental management, and community social involvement. These indicators show improvements in physical, cognitive, social, and environmental aspects after the community service activities. Activity methods include socialization, simulation, and education with a pre-test and post-test approach to measure the effectiveness of the intervention. Activities were carried out in the form of disaster mitigation counseling for elementary school students, maggot-based waste management training, healthy lifestyle counseling for the elderly through the GERMAS program, and nutrition education for parents related to stunting prevention. The results of the activity showed an increase in public understanding of disaster mitigation, with an average pre-test score of 58.4 increasing to 82.7 in the post-test. The community demonstrated a better understanding of the importance of waste management to prevent environmental pollution, awareness of early detection of hypertension, and the fulfillment of balanced nutrition to prevent stunting. Active participation in simulations, question and answer sessions, and discussions were indicators of the success of the activity. It can be concluded that this community service program succeeded in increasing the understanding and awareness of the Pandai Sikek community regarding health and disaster preparedness. The sustainability of this program needs to be supported through collaboration with local governments, educational institutions, and local communities to expand its positive impact.

Abstract

Public health is one of the key aspects of sustainable development. This community service activity aims to improve public health through nutritional status assessments conducted during the Car Free Day (CFD) event in Padang City. The methods used include nutritional status measurement, nutrition education, and the promotion of healthy lifestyles. Health measurements included assessments of body weight, height, fat mass, muscle mass, blood pressure, blood sugar levels, uric acid levels, and hemoglobin levels. Education was delivered through interactive sessions and the distribution of leaflets on healthy eating patterns and clean-living behaviors. The impact of the education was evaluated qualitatively through testimonials from participants who took part in both the health check and educational sessions. Participants shared their experiences regarding changes in their dietary habits and healthy lifestyle practices after participating in the program. Several participants stated that they had begun adopting healthier lifestyles, such as paying more attention to food intake, increasing physical activity, and feeling the benefits of a fitter body. Based on these testimonials, this activity demonstrated an increase in awareness and the adoption of healthy living behaviors among the community. Therefore, interventions through health assessments and nutrition education have been proven to contribute to encouraging positive behavioral changes within the community.

Abstract

Background: Adolescent nutrition is a complex public health issue, encompassing undernutrition, overnutrition, and micronutrient deficiencies such as anemia. Nutritional imbalances during adolescence affect physical growth, brain development, academic performance, and long-term productivity. Therefore, innovative, engaging, and age-appropriate educational approaches are necessary. One such effective method is the use of educational games such as puzzles, which present nutritional messages in an interactive and enjoyable way. This study aimed to analyze the effect of the Balanced Nutrition Puzzle Game on students’ knowledge and attitudes toward balanced nutrition. Methods: A quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test control group was used. The sample consisted of 60 junior high school students selected through purposive sampling, with valid and reliable questionnaires used as instruments. Results: The results showed a significant increase in knowledge and attitude scores in the intervention group after the puzzle game was implemented (p < 0.05), whereas the control group showed no significant changes. Conclusion: These findings suggest that the Balanced Nutrition Puzzle Game is an effective educational medium for improving adolescent understanding and promoting positive attitudes toward healthy eating and lifestyle.

Abstract

Sungai Pisang, located in the Bungus Teluk Kabung District, is a coastal area with approximately 2,116 residents, most of whom earn their livelihood as fishermen. The community faces interrelated nutritional and sanitation problems, primarily due to limited waste-management facilities. Household waste and fish-processing residues are commonly burned or buried, resulting in environmental pollution and increasing the risk of infectious diseases. These conditions negatively affect the community’s nutritional status, particularly among vulnerable groups such as children under five and pregnant women. This community service program aims to strengthen community capacity in improving nutrition and sanitation through a participatory empowerment approach. The activities were carried out through preparation, socialization, and intervention. These included official meetings with local authorities, health education sessions for housewives, mothers of young children, and community health volunteers, as well as a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) to develop applicable waste-management solutions. The results showed an increase in community knowledge regarding balanced nutrition and family health. In addition, residents agreed to initiate organic-waste composting and reduce the use of single-use plastics. This program integrates nutrition interventions with environmentally based sanitation improvements, emphasizing that nutritional enhancement cannot be separated from local ecological conditions. Collaboration among local government, health workers, and the community is essential to creating a sustainable healthy environment that supports comprehensive improvements in nutritional status.
