Abstract

Background: Chemotherapy remains the major strategy in cancer treatment, although it increases the risk of malnutrition. Evidence identifying hierarchical clusters of malnutrition risk factors beyond chemotherapy remains limited despite their importance for improving nutritional risk stratification.Objectives: This study aims to identify the proximity of malnutrition-related factors among cancer patients, thereby generating phenotypic clusters of cancer patients at risk of malnutrition. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 148 cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy in Dr. Sardjito Hospital, Yogyakarta. Malnutrition status, body composition, and anthropometric indicators were assessed using Patient Generated-Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA), Bioimpedance Analysis (BIA), and standardized measurements, while dietary intake was collected using a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire (SQ-FFQ). Data were standardized using z-score and analyzed using k-means clustering. Associations between clusters and clinical characteristics were examined using chi-square tests (p<0.05), and multinomial logistic regression was applied to identify predictors of malnutrition risks.Results: Three clusters (High-fat-high-intake (HFHI), Lean muscular (LM), and Low intake-low body composition (LILB)) were positively associated with gender, smoking status, and cancer type (p<0.05). Compared to cluster LILB, cancer type significantly increased the likelihood of a person being included in both cluster HFHI (OR=7.34; p<0.001) and LM (OR=4.35; p=0.001). Furthermore, gender had a significant effect on being included in cluster HFHI (OR=6.34; p=0.031), but not in cluster LM. Smoking status was not significantly linked with any cluster (p>0.05). Conclusions: Clustering approach can reveal varied nutritional status patterns among cancer patients, necessitating more tailored and multimodal nutritional therapy management

Abstract

Introduction: The national food security system ensures availability and stability, yet inequitable access and food utilization contribute to malnutrition and obesity. To achieve sustainable food security and SDG 2030 goals, education and redistributing surplus food can enhance community awareness and reduce food loss and waste (FLW). Aims: To initially assess community needs and evaluate an interprofessional-based educational program on sustainable food systems and nutrition security known as "Food for Health, Food for Planet." Methods: A half-day workshop was conducted to 34 participants coming from academics, food, and health enthusiasts, nutritionist, practitioners, students, and the public. The workshop lasted for six (6) hours, consisted of pre- and post-knowledge assessment, three (3) sessions of lectures, one (1) session of talkshow, and exhibition. This event involved four (4) speakers from various backgrounds.  Result: A pre- and post-assessment survey on FLW and food sustainability showed a slight decline in scores (98.3 to 97.4, p > 0.05).  For research and education, the initiatives were conducting multi-years research, designing intensive and innovative face-to-face training, integrating food system and FLW in classroom activity, and developing a curriculum and training kit materials. Finally, the event identified: (1) follow-up research opportunities, (2) multi-helix coordination from academia/researcher, private sectors, media, and policy makers, and (3) collaborative efforts while addressing the workshop’s strength and limitations. Conclusions: This half-day workshop briefly describes the needs of community to thrive sustainable food security as well as food systems by carrying through several initiatives for reducing FLW.

Abstract

Nutrition programs to overcome adolescent’s nutrition problems using a school-based approach are considered the most effective nutrition program strategy. As an effort to support nutrition programs at the school level, SEAMEO RECFON, together with experts in the field of health nutrition and strategic partners developed the "School Based Nutrition Promotion" module which was created for various targets including academics, policy makers, program implementers, school communities and the general public. This activity aims to implement a school-based nutrition promotion program as an effort to improve nutritional and health status and prevent degenerative diseases in children and adolescents. The method used is quasi-experimental research with a pre and post-test design without a control group design. The targets of this activity are teachers, principals and staff at Syuhada Mosque Elementary School and State Junior High School 2 Yogyakarta. Activities carried out include education and evaluation of the implementation of the SBNP module, student nutrition education, and training for health nutrition cadres. The result of this activity is that the average student score increases after being given education. The results of the assessment of the SBNP book were that the average elementary and junior high school teachers gave agree marks for all aspects, and for all aspects there was no significant difference between the average scores given by teachers except for aspect 4.
