Abstract

Background: Anemia remains a major public health problem affecting adolescents worldwide, particularly girls who are vulnerable due to rapid growth and menstrual blood loss. In Indonesia, the prevalence of anemia remains high (25–40%), driven by poor dietary habits, low adherence to iron supplementation, and overall nutritional status. While Body Mass Index (BMI)-for-age is a recognized determinant of anemia risk, local evidence, particularly from Jambi City, remains scarce. Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 30 female students aged 15–18 years. The data utilized were collected during a Community Service Program (PKM). BMI for age z-scores were calculated using the WHO 2007 Growth Reference. Hemoglobin levels were measured using a portable hemoglobinometer (HemoCue Hb 301). The relationship between BMI-for-age categories (underweight, normal, overweight) and anemia status was analyzed using the Chi-square test. Results: The overall anemia prevalence was 40%. Based on BMI for age, participants were categorized as underweight (n=8), normal (n=18), and overweight (n=4). Anemia prevalence varied significantly across categories: underweight (75.0%) showed the highest rate, followed by normal (33.3%), and overweight (25.0%). Statistical analysis revealed a significant association between BMI-for-age and anemia (p = 0.041). Conclusions: Anemia was present across all BMI categories, with the highest prevalence among underweight adolescents. These findings indicate that nutritional status strongly influences anemia risk and should be prioritized in adolescent health programs. Integrating school-based strategies such as routine growth and hemoglobin monitoring, iron–folic acid supplementation, and engaging nutrition education.

Abstract

Adolescent students in Islamic boarding schools are vulnerable to nutritional and mental health problems due to unbalanced diets, academic pressure, and limited health services. This community service aimed to enhance teachers’ and food handlers’ understanding of balanced nutrition and mental health at Al Amalul Khair Islamic Boarding School, Palembang. The program employed interactive lectures, healthy product demonstrations, and basic counseling training. Evaluation was conducted through pre- and post-tests to measure knowledge improvement and direct observation of skills. Results indicated a significant increase in teachers’ knowledge (from 58.3% to 84.7%, p<0.05), improved skills in preparing nutritious products, and the establishment of a Health Team and teacher counselors. In conclusion, integrating nutrition education, healthy food innovation, and psychosocial support effectively strengthened teachers’ capacity and provided a replicable model for other schools.

Abstract

Background: Dysmenorrhea was a common menstrual disorder among female university students that could interfere with academic activities. Irritative dietary patterns, such as consuming seblak—high in capsaicin and sodium—were suspected as triggers for menstrual pain. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the association between seblak consumption and dysmenorrhea, considering residential status as an effect modifier. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 207 female students at Universitas Sriwijaya via quota-convenience sampling. Data were collected using a Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) and a structured questionnaire for functional dysmenorrhea. Data analysis involved logistic regression and stratified analysis using STATA 14. Results: Results show that the prevalence of dysmenorrhea is 39.6%. No significant association exists between seblak consumption and dysmenorrhea in the total sample. However, stratified analysis reveals a significant association among students living with parents (OR=2.76; 95% CI: 1.18–6.42; p=0.019), while no significance is found in boarding houses (p=0.570). Interaction testing confirms residential status as a significant effect modifier (p-interaction=0.020). Conclusion: Seblak consumption significantly increases dysmenorrhea risk among students residing with families, but the influence is distorted by environmental factors in boarding houses. Reproductive health education should consider spicy diet patterns, particularly for groups with high dietary stability at home.

Abstract

Stunting adalah masalah gizi akibat kekurangan asupan jangka panjang, terutama dari masa kehamilan hingga anak berusia 24 bulan. Penelitian ini menganalisis implementasi program penanggulangan stunting di Dinas Kesehatan Kabupaten Kerinci, menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif dan studi kasus. Sampel penelitian dipilih secara purposive sampling, melibatkan petugas kesehatan dan masyarakat yang terkait langsung dengan program ini. Data diperoleh melalui wawancara mendalam dan dianalisis secara tematik dengan triangulasi untuk memastikan validitas. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa koordinasi antarinstansi dalam penanggulangan stunting berjalan efektif dengan dukungan komitmen yang kuat. Terdapat 724 kasus stunting pada anak usia 0-59 bulan, atau sekitar 4,24%, dengan prevalensi tertinggi di Kecamatan Kuliling Danau mencapai 11,80%. Inovasi dalam program penanggulangan stunting telah diterapkan dan mendapatkan respon positif dari masyarakat, meski partisipasi masih perlu ditingkatkan. Implementasi program telah optimal, namun terdapat beberapa tantangan, seperti rendahnya pengetahuan dan kondisi ekonomi kelompok sasaran, keterbatasan anggaran, serta kurangnya publikasi dan konvergensi lintas sektor.
