Abstract

The prevalence of stunted toddlers in Kupang district is still high, including in the partner area, namely Camplong-II village, Fatuleu sub-district. This village is one of the areas with sufficient water sources and adequate agricultural products, but a few stunted toddlers are still found. Adequate agricultural and livestock production does not guarantee that the nutritional status of toddlers will be good, even though sufficient food is available in the family, if the caregiver does not provide it according to the toddler's needs, the toddler will also experience malnutrition. Data from the Hamlet II Haumeni Posyandu, Camplong-II Village shows that there are 27 stunted toddlers (July 2022). The implementation of preventive promotive services for stunted toddlers or those at risk of stunting is intended as an effort to increase public knowledge about the prevention and handling of stunting. This activity aims to reduce stunting rates by providing counseling, cooking demonstrations, and distributing necessities. The output indicators are increasing knowledge about the prevention and handling of stunting and the use of food ingredients around for food menus. The expected output targets are increasing knowledge and skills of partners to serve nutritious food menus for toddlers and the availability of nutritious food ingredients for toddlers. The availability of protein and vegetable food sources is always needed by stunted toddler partners, so it is expected that two months after harvest, there will be an increase in the weight and height of stunted toddlers. Families who are intervened are expected to be a model for program duplication at other integrated health posts.

Abstract

Background: High uric acid levels are a major cause of Gout arthritis. Untreated Gout arthritis can progress to chronic gout, kidney dysfunction, and a decrease in quality of life. The use of natural substances such as the giving of coriander seed decoction and unripened coconut water can be one of the non-pharmacological intervention to reduce uric acid levels. Objective: This research aims to determine the comparison of the effectiveness of coriander seed decoction and unripened coconut water in reducing uric acid levels. Methods: The study is a quasi-experimental research, using a pretest-posttest with control group design. The study participants consisted of 54 respondents from educators and education staff at Nusa Cendana University who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data analysis used parametric analysis, namely paired sample t-test, and one-way anova. Result: There was a significant effect in the coriander seed decoction intervention group on uric acid levels before and after the intervention (p=0.002), while in the unripened coconut water intervention group and the control group, there was no significant effect on uric acid levels with respective p-values of (p=0.648) and (p=0.705). There was no significant difference after the intervention in the coriander seed decoction group, unripened coconut water group, and control group in reducing uric acid levels (p=0.114). Conclusion: There was no difference in the effectiveness between giving coriander seed decoction and unripened coconut water to reduce uric acid levels.
