Abstract

Background: Cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA) represents the most frequently encountered food allergy in pediatric populations younger than three years. Clinical presentations vary widely, including gastrointestinal (GI), respiratory, and cutaneous manifestations. Objectives: The purpose of this case report is to determine the effectiveness of an isolated soy protein formula, enriched with dietary fibre, as a dietary alternative for a child afflicted with cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA). Methods: This study presents a case report concerning a 2-week-old infant who presented with gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, specifically watery loose stools and vomiting. Given the family and socioeconomic circumstances, neither breast milk nor an amino acid or extensively hydrolyzed formula could be provided. Consequently, the infant received an isolated soy protein formula fortified with dietary fiber. This report further includes a review of the current literature on the utilization of dietary fiber in pediatric populations. Results: The use of isolate soy protein with dietary fibre formula may offer a well-tolerated and nutritionally adequate alternative for children with CMPA, providing paediatricians, nutritionists, and the broader healthcare community with an additional dietary option. Conclusions: The use of soy isolate protein formula with additional fibre suggests a beneficial effect to improve gut microbiota diversity and may improve stool consistency for both constipation and diarrhoea. However, further large-scale studies are needed to confirm its long-term effect, efficacy, and impact on growth and gut health.

Abstract

Background: Cesarean section incidence increases over time in both emergency and elective cases, or with medical indication and social factors. Despite the usefulness of C-section, parents need to be aware of its effect to child health and the countermeasure. Objectives: This study aims to explore mothers’ perspectives about the health effects of C-section to children. Methods: An open-ended survey was conducted on Indonesian mothers as participants in a cross-sectional study. A compilation of descriptive responses was collected at an online parenting community focused on children’s health. The questions are later classified into six particular categories and given an analysis. Results: A total of 175 inquiries were collected and categorized into 6 groups. In declining pattern, we found parental concern regarding the effect of C-section on the child's immune system (57.14%), nutrition and prebiotics/ probiotics/ synbiotic (22.28%), growth and development (8%), and gastrointestinal system (6.28%). A total of 42 questions (24%) can be categorized into more than one category. Conclusions: More than half of parents are concerned about the effect of C-section on children’s immune system, and one out of five mothers is concerned about the role of nutrition for their children’s health. However, the awareness and concern regarding C-section health impact on growth and development, and gastrointestinal system are still very low.
