Abstract

Overweight in children under five has increased and will impact at an early age and cause a metabolic syndrome in adulthood. Being overweight is caused by many things, one of which is socioeconomic family. Family socioeconomic is an underlying cause that influences feeding practices. This study aimed to analyze the risk of overweight in preschool children based on family socio-economics. This study used a case-control design conducted from December 2019 to March 2020. The sample used was 66 preschool children divided into two groups with a ratio of 1:1, which was carried out by simple random sampling—data collection techniques by interviewing sample mothers related to the socioeconomic aspects of the family. Data were processed using SPSS software and categorized each variable into two categories. Data analysis using Chi-Square test. The results of this study showed: that maternal nutritional knowledge was significantly correlated with the incidence of overweight in preschool children (p= 0,041). Other socio-economic aspects (maternal age (p= 0,202), paternal age (p= 0,250), maternal education (p= 0,450), paternal education (p= 0,301), family size (p= 0,439), and family economic status (p= 0,395) were not correlated with the overweight. This study concluded that maternal nutritional knowledge was one of the factors associated with overweight in preschool children, while other socioeconomic factors were not related.

Abstract

Stunting has an impact on cognitive function disorders, endurance, productivity, and potential to experience degenerative diseases. The aim of research was to measure the association between characteristics of children, exclusive breastfeeding, and presence of smokers with incidence of stunting. The design of research was a Cross Sectional. The sample was a toddler aged 12-59 months who visited to Integrated Healthcare Center (Posyandu) in Ratu Samban District, Bengkulu City in 2017. Samples were taken using Accidental Sampling technique as many as 102 toddlers. Data were collected by conducting interviews based on questionnaires, looking at maternal and child health books, and anthropometric measurements. Data analysis using Chi-Square test. The results, there was no significant correlation between characteristics of toddler (such as age (p= 0,175), gender (p= 0,439), birth weight (p= 0,218), birth length (p= 0,080)), exclusive breastfeeding (p= 0,362), and presence of smokers (p= 0,940) with incidence of stunting. In conclusion, there was no significant relationship between characteristics of toddlers, exclusive breastfeeding, and presence of smokers with incidence of stunting. It is recommended to Public Health Center to intervene in first thousand days of life in form of nutrition fulfillment, antenatal care, and education about the dangers of smoking for pregnant mother and toddler.

Abstract

Stunting is caused by inadequate nutrient intake in children and low parental knowledge, so it is necessary to provide additional food and nutrition education for parents. This study aims to determine the effect of providing supplementary food of snakehead fish flour substitution (called PMT-Tibus) on the nutritional status of children under five stunted. The study design used a randomized pretest-posttest control design. The study was conducted in Makassar City in 2019, using a sample of 24 people in each group. Group-1 was given PMT-Tibus with online nutrition education, while group-2 was only given online nutrition education. PMT-Tibus is given every day while the mother’s nutrition education is conducted periodically for one month. Nutritional status data was collected using anthropometric methods—processing and analyzing data using SPSS. WAZ of group-1 was increased by 0,11 ± 0,28. Otherwise, the WAZ of group-2 was decreased by -0,11 ± 0,42. HAZ of group-1 and group-2 increased (0,22 ± 0,31 vs 0,24 ± 0,31). WHZ of group-1 increased by 0,4 ± 0,04 and group-2 was decreased by -0,37 ± 0,68. There was a significant difference in WAZ and WHZ scores between the two groups, respectively, whit all p values < 0,05. Snakehead fish flour-based supplementary feeding (PMT-Tibus) and online nutrition education can improve the nutritional status of WAZ and WHZ in stunted toddlers.

Abstract

Subulussalam City has always been in the top three with the highest stunting rate in Aceh from 2013-to 2021. This study aims to determine the prevalence and determinants of stunting in primary school students. The study used a case-control design with a sample of 30 stunted children and 60 non-stunted control children. Interview data and measurement of height with microtoise. Stunting data was processed using WHO AnthroPlus software. Statistical analysis using Odds Ratio test and Binary Logistic Regression. The result, the prevalence of stunting in Sultan Daulat is 24%. The determinants of stunting are the mother's occupation (as a farmer) p= 0,035 and OR= 98.9, the father's job is not fixed (a laborer) p = 0.046 and OR= 22,9, and the incidence of diarrhea (p= 0,047; OR= 17,9), and low birth weight (p= 0,047; OR= 0,78). In conclusion, children with diarrhea and low birth weight are triggers for children to experience stunting, while sanitation conditions and drinking water consumed have no effect on stunting. Children who are stunted are more commonly found in mothers with a history of giving birth <20 years and >35 years.

Abstract

Obesity incidence in children, especially primary school children, is increasing. This obesity can be caused by environmental factors: availability of food at home and the home environment or home environment such as the physical environment, exposure to screen time, mother knowledge, and maternal behaviour in providing feeding practices. This study aims to determine the difference between food availability and home environment for obese and non-obese children. The design of this research was case-control conducted with the subject of elementary school-age children in Yogyakarta city. The research was conducted in March-November 2017. Samples were chosen by the multistage sampling method. Subjects were grouped into children with obese nutritional status as a case (n=71) and children with normal nutritional status as control (n=71) based on the BFA index. The data were collected by anthropometric measurements, interviewing, and filling out Home Environment Survey questionnaires on children and their parents. Data analysis using Mann Whitney statistical test, Spearman test, McNemar test, and logistic regression. Food availability showed significant mean differences in case and control groups (p <0,05). Other environmental factors showed no significant differences, but in the case group, the mother's feeding scores were less healthy than the control group; the average duration of case group screen time was higher than 20 minutes than the control group; higher physical environmental support scores control group than case groups. In conclusion, food availability had significant mean differences in both groups.

Abstract

Keumamah, or dried fish, is one of Aceh Province's traditional delicacies whose ingredient is mackerel tuna. The making of dried fish (Keumamah) is a method of preserving fish to prolong its shelf life. The study aimed to measure the storage time of dried fish (Keumamah) using vacuum packaging and irradiation. The study used an experimental design through the Randomized Control Trial (RCT) method. Statistically analyzed using ANOVA and advanced Duncan test with Confidence Interval (CI) of 95%. This study showed that vacuum irradiation could significantly preserve the colour, taste, flavour, and texture characteristics of the dried fish (p < 0,01) for all variables. The Total Plate Count (TPC) test and water, protein, and fat content analysis suggest a significantly better post-storage condition of the dried fish using a vacuum and irradiation combination. Meanwhile, the analysis of ash content did not show a significant difference between treatment and control groups (p= 0,386). In conclusion, the packaging with a combination of vacuum and irradiation could prolong the shelf life of dried fish

Abstract

Wasting on children is an important public health problem because of its considerable impact on their health and growth. This problem could lead to iron deficiency which could induce infection disease and probably lower a child’s intelligence as a long-term effect. This study aimed to analyze factors related to wasting on 12-59 months children in Bulili Public Health Center (PHC), Palu City. The analytical descriptive study designed with a cross-sectional approach was applied in this study. One hundred and twenty-one subject was selected from 283 children with purposive sampling technique. Data were analyzed with chi-square and Fisher exact test with significant (p < 0,05). The result showed that most children with low birth weight experienced wasting with a p-value = 0,000. Most of the children from higher-income families did not experience wasting with a p-value = 0,004. Most children who didn’t receive breastfeeding milk did not experience wasting with a p-value = 0,958. This study concluded a correlation between low birth weight and income to wasting, but breastfeeding practice was not related.

Abstract

Muscle fatigue is a common problem experienced by athletes when undergoing exercise. Sports snacks are an effective solution for preventing them because they can be consumed between workouts without requiring a particular time. However, the availability of sports snacks is still rarely traded in the market. The purpose study is to produce a nastar based on a mixture of banana flour and tempeh (named B-Star Snack) as a sports snack that can prevent muscle fatigue. The research was carried out in July - December 2020 at the Food Technology Lab, Department of Nutrition, Denpasar Health Polytechnic, where wheat flour as the main ingredient for making nastar was substituted with tempeh flour and banana flour with the five combinations of banana flour and tempeh mixtures. All observations were analyzed by ANOVA. Especially for the results of the organoleptic test, in order to meet the assumption of a normal distribution, the data is transformed into an interval scale using the successive interval method. There was a significant difference in the preference for B-Star Snack between formulas (p = 0,014). The most preferred is the combination of tempeh and banana flour (40:60%). The B-Star Snack with a 40:60% combination contains the complete nutrition of both macro and micronutrients. The B-Star Snack with a tempeh and banana flour 40:60% as much as 100 grams per serving can be recommended to prevent muscle fatigue due to the exercise.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic impacts lifestyle changes, one of which is the eating behavior of people. The research aims to examine changes in eating behavior before and during the COVID-19 pandemic among adolescents and adult groups in Indonesia. A cross-sectional study on 563 subjects, with the subject's inclusion criteria, namely living in Indonesia, aged 12-55 years, willing to participate in the research by filling in informed consent and filling out a questionnaire via an online google form. The data obtained were grouped based on variables before and after the pandemic, then tested the normality of the data. Bivariate analysis used the Wilcoxon text because the data were not normally distributed. As a result, there was an increase in the subject's breakfast habits and frequency of eating. Subjects experienced changes in eating habits, namely an increase in the frequency, variety, and portion of consumption of animal protein, vegetable protein, vegetables, and fruit between before and during the COVID-19 pandemic (p <0,001). In addition, the habit of consuming fluids, supplements, and spices also experienced a significant increase, while the pattern of snacking decreased between before and during the pandemic (p <0,001). In conclusion, there were differences in eating behavior: breakfast habits, dietary variations, consumption of animal and vegetable protein, vegetables, fruits, fluids, supplements, spices, and snacking patterns outside the home between before and during the pandemic in the subject

Abstract

One of the obstacles faced in determining the diagnosis of stunting is the complexity and lack of accuracy of health workers, especially Integrated Healthcare Center (called Posyandu) cadres, in using current equipment (microtoice) and the lack of accuracy of nutrition workers in interpreting nutritional status.  The purpose of the study was to measure the validity of the KMS Tikar through sensitivity and specificity testing in detecting stunting in toddlers. The study used a Research & Development design, with the gold standard using a body length board and Z-Score calculation from 2005 WHO reference standard, carried out in 30 clusters in Darul Imarah District, Aceh Besar, from April to October 2019, and a sample of all children aged 0-24 months which is as many as 204 children. Data was collected through anthropometric measurements such as length and age and z-score data on the HAZ index. The WHO Anthro processed the data. The analysis was carried out with the Se and Sp tests. The results showed that children's body length measurement with both tools (Gold standard and growth chart is a mat model) had 0,073 cm. At the same time, the proportion of nutritional status in the stunting category was more commonly found in measurements using growth charts of mats (23,5%) compared to Gold Standards (12, 3%). The validity test results obtained a very high sensitivity value (100%) with a specificity of—87,15%. While the positive predictive value is 52,08%, and the negative predictive value is 100%. In conclusion, the growth monitoring mat growth chart has high sensitivity and specificity value and is very good for use as a tool to detect stunting in children aged 0-24 months.
