Abstract

The high incidence of stunting is the leading cause of death in children under five years of age worldwide. Sungai Penuh City is one of the urban areas in Indonesia that has experienced an increase in the prevalence of stunting. Stunting is caused by long-term nutritional deficiency in the mother due to inadequate food supply due to low household food security. Stunting can also occur because of the reproductive condition of the mother, who is not ready to conceive. This cross-sectional study aimed to analyze maternal factors and food security that have the greatest influence on the incidence of stunting in toddlers aged 0-59 months in Sungai Penuh City using data from the 2022 Indonesian Nutrition Status Survey conducted in August-September 2022. The sample consisted of 308 toddlers living in urban areas. Data were analyzed using descriptive non-parametric statistical tests with the chi-square test and Logistic Regression test. The results of this study prove that short maternal stature has a significant relationship with the incidence of stunting in toddlers (p<0,05), whereas chronic energy deficiency mothers, maternal age, and food security did not have a significant relationship with the incidence of stunting in toddlers in urban areas (p>0,05). Maternal short stature is an indicator of past chronic malnutrition and a major predictor of stunting in children under five

Abstract

Penajam Paser Utara was the first district to provide cash incentives to Posyandu cadres for infants and toddlers and was the district with the largest incentive in 2010 at IDR 200,000 per month. However, the provision of incentives was uneven. However, there are still differences in the amount of cash incentives received by cadres. This study aims to determine whether there is a relationship between incentives and the performance of Posyandu cadres in Penajam Paser Utara District. This type of research was quantitative, using a correlational analysis method and a cross-sectional approach with a sample size of 303 respondents. The research was conducted in the Posyandu working area in the Penajam Paser Utara Regency between November and December 2023. Data were collected online using a Google form link provided to respondents via WhatsApp. Data were analyzed using the chi-squared test. The results showed that 251 cadres (82,8%) performed satisfactorily, Three types of non-cash incentives were associated with performance: health benefits, uniforms, and neighborhood support (p-value <0,05). This study concludes that there is a positive relationship between cash and non-cash incentives on cadr e performance in the Penajam Paser Utara Region (p < 0,001).

Abstract

Stunting remains a major public health threat among children under five years of age in developing countries, including Indonesia. Studies have shown that water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) interventions are essential for reducing the prevalence of the disease. This study aimed to identify WASH-related risk factors associated with stunting among under-fives. This hospital-based cross-sectional study included 133 randomly sampled children who attended outpatient clinics or were admitted for treatment at Rumah Sakit Umum Daerah (Regional Public Hospital-RSUD) dr. Zainoel Abidin Banda Aceh between April and May 2024. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and anthropometric measurements. The bivariate chi-square test and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the data. Statistical significance was set at P < 0.05, with a 95% confidence interval (CI). The results showed that the prevalence of stunting was 35.3% among children under fives attended RSUD dr. Zainoel Abidin Banda Aceh. Bivariate analysis showed that stunting was associated with the main source of drinking water {p=0.04, OR 2.29 (95% CI = 1.07 – 4.89). Multivariate regression analyses revealed the WASH-related risk factor for stunting, which was the child’s fecal disposal {p= 0.03, OR= 0.26 (95% CI 0.08 – 0.85)}. In conclusion, child’s fecal disposal is a WASH-related risk factor for stunting  among children who attended RSUD dr. Zainoel Abidin Banda Aceh. This risk factor can be modified through health policies that consider WASH interventions to manage stunting prevalence.

Abstract

Stunting is a chronic health problem that affects children and has long-term implications for their cognitive development. The multifactorial causes of stunting require identification of the most dominant factors to facilitate effective interventions. This study aimed to analyze the factors associated with stunting in children under two years old in Aceh. This was a cross-sectional study involving 2,395 subjects aged 0-23 months. Data were obtained from the 2021 SSGI National Survey, consisting of stunting prevalence, child and family characteristics, household sanitation, universal health insurance ownership, breastfeeding and complementary feeding practices, immunization status, parenting and pregnancy classes, supplementary feeding, and food security. Logistic regression analysis was performed using 95% confidence intervals. The results showed a significant association between stunting and child sex, sanitation conditions, parental education, exclusive breastfeeding, complementary feeding practices, immunization status, micronutrient supplementation, and breastfeeding duration (p<0,05). In conclusion, the factors associated with stunting in children aged 0-23 months in Aceh are sanitation, parental education, exclusive breastfeeding, complementary feeding practices, immunization, micronutrient supplementation, and breastfeeding duration. This study highlights the importance of improved nutrition education, family support, immunization coverage, and environmental sanitation to reduce the prevalence of stunting among young children in Aceh

Abstract

Most Indonesians are unable to control their food choice. This factor is due to individual indifference to maintaining health, self-control, and gender. This study aimed to examine the personal factors that can influence healthy food choices. The research method used a quasi-experimental with post-test-only control group design; the total sample included 143 participants aged between 17-25 years. This study was conducted at the Psychology Laboratory of Semarang State University in September 2023. Health concerns and self-control were measured by filling out a questionnaire, and an experimental test was conducted to choose healthy food using the Fake Food Buffet. Data analysis was performed using GLM univariate test. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant influence of health concern and self-control on healthy food choices, but the results of gender analysis on healthy food choices are not significant. This means that individuals who care about health and have strong self-control choose healthy food. However, there were no differences in food choice behaviors between women and men. It can be concluded that personal factors, such as health concerns and self-control, significantly influence the choice of healthy food. This could reduce the level of obesity that will occur in the future.

Abstract

Hypertension is a major public health problem in Indonesia, with the highest number of elderly female patients. This study aimed to assess the relationship between BMI, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels, and systolic and diastolic blood pressure in elderly women. An observational study was conducted using a cross-sectional design, in which 330 women in West Aceh District aged 60 years or older were included. Data were analyzed using simple linear regression and multiple linear regression tests to determine the relationship between independent variables (systolic and diastolic blood pressure) and dependent variables (BMI, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels). The results showed that the correlation between BMI, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels and systolic blood pressure was weak (r ≤ 0.25). The BMI with diastolic blood pressure was moderate (r=0.272). Conversely, the correlation between cholesterol and blood sugar levels and diastolic blood pressure was weak (r ≤ 0.25).  Multivariate analysis showed that BMI (p<0.001), cholesterol (p<0.001), and blood sugar levels (p ≤ 0.013) were significantly associated with systolic blood pressure. Furthermore, diastolic blood pressure was significantly associated with BMI (p <0.001). In conclusion, BMI is associated with systolic and diastolic blood pressure, while cholesterol and blood sugar levels only contribute to systolic blood pressure but not diastolic blood pressure.

Abstract

Unhealthy living behaviors and the double workload of female teachers have led to lifestyle changes that have an impact on the risk of obesity. This study aimed to determine the influence of diet, physical activity, and sleep habits on obesity risk among female teachers in Lhokseumawe. This cross-sectional study was conducted in Lhokseumawe City from November 2023 to April 2024 with 289 female teachers, using multistage random sampling. Eating patterns were measured using the semi-FFQ, physical activity using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), sleeping patterns using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and body mass index (BMI) using anthropometric measurements. Bivariate analysis was performed using the chi-square test and multivariate analysis with multiple logistic regression. The results showed that Physical activity (p=0,023, RP=2,295) and fat intake (p=0,007, RP=0,484) influenced the incidence of obesity, whereas carbohydrate intake (p=0,622), energy (p=0,524), protein (p=0,225), food type (p=0,066), and sleep patterns (p=0,138) did not affect the incidence of obesity among female teachers in Lhokseumawe City. In conclusion, physical activity is the dominant risk factor for obesity. The risk of obesity was 2,295 times higher among female teachers who were not physically active.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic triggered lifestyle changes, namely diet quality and physical activity, which showed improvements in COVID-19 survivors. This study aimed to analyze the differences in diet quality and physical activity among COVID-19 survivors and non-survivors in the city of Semarang between March and April 2022. The study design was cross-sectional, with as many as 100 Semarang City residents aged 22-45 years (50 survivors and 50 non-survivors of COVID-19) using a purposive sampling technique. Semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire (SQ-FFQ) interview data were collected, followed by diet quality assessment using the Diet Quality Index-International (DQI-I). Physical activity data were collected using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF). Data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney and Spearman's methods. The diet quality of the two groups showed a difference (p=0,012), with the diet quality of the survivor group being better. Variations in dietary quality components showed significant differences (p<0,001), including the subcomponents of overall (p=0,005) and protein (p<0,001). Physical activity in both groups showed no significant difference (p=0,639), including heavy, moderate, and walking activities. There was a significant difference in sedentary activity between the two groups (p=0,035). Conclusion: The dietary quality of the two groups showed differences, the majority of which was better in the COVID-19 survivor group. Physical activity in both groups showed no difference, but sedentary activity differed between the two groups
