Abstract

The prevalence of anemia in Indonesia shows an increase. Anemia in children and mothers has serious health effects. This analysis aims to better understand the characteristics of toddlers and their mothers with concurrent anemia in the same family. The analysis uses Riskesdas data from 2018 with a cross-sectional design. Sampling is done using a probability proportional to the size. The samples analyzed were families with toddlers and mothers with toddlers with Hb measurement data and other supporting data. The analysis was performed descriptively and another proportionality test was performed using the Chi-Square test (p<0.05). The results of the analysis showed that 38.9% of toddlers were anemic, 21.3% of mothers with children under 5 years of age were anemic, while children and mothers in the same family had anemia 9.7. %. In families with children and mothers, anemia often occurs in families with low economic status, the education level of the household head is not high, the number of family members is more than 4 people, the number of children under 5 years old in the family is less. households with ≤2 children, living in rural areas and living outside Java and Bali area (10.7%; 10.0%; 12.2%; 9.7%; 10.0–12.0%). The high prevalence of anemia in households suggests that anemia management still needs to be improved. All family members can play an independent role in monitoring and early detection of anemia symptoms in toddlers and their mothers.

Abstract

Calcium is believed to play a role in growth, especially in children under five, and contributes to malnutrition issues in Indonesia. However, national-scale data are very limited to delve deeper into this matter. The study aims to examine the calcium status of children in Indonesia and their nutritional status, including stunting and underweight. A cross-sectional study design using secondary data from the 2018 Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) and Study of Nutrition Status of Children Under Five and School-Aged Children 2021, including serum calcium concentration data and anthropometric measurements of body length and body weight. The study subjects were children aged 0-59 months, totaling 550 samples. The study results show the mean value of calcium concentration was 10.00±1.10 mg/dL. As many as 8.2 percent of children experienced deficiency with calcium concentration <9.0 mg/dL. The proportion of stunted and underweight children was 23.27 percent and 9.82 percent, respectively. The average calcium concentration in stunted and underweight children was not significantly different from the normal scores of HAZ and BAZ in children. Calcium status, along with factors such as age and sex, did not show a relationship with nutritional status indicators like height-for-age (HAZ) and weight-for-age (WAZ). Although the prevalence of calcium deficiency among toddlers in Indonesia is relatively low, there are still children with calcium concentrations significantly below the normal range. Further studies are needed to figure out the contribution of calcium to children's growth.
