Background: WHO analysis estimates the number of children with disabilities reaching 7-10% of the total population of children. The limitations of retarded children are influenced by age, physical condition, nutritional status of the child, and parenting in the family have a relationship in the level of independence of the children. The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors that influence self-care in retarded children in Surakarta, Central Java.Subjects and Method: This study was a cross sectional study conducted in 15 special schools in Surakarta, Central Java, from June to July 2019. A sample of 200 mentally retarded children aged 9-17 years was selected by stratified random sampling. The dependent variable was self care. The independent variables were age, nutritional status, mental retardation classification, maternal age, maternal education, maternal occupation, maternal knowledge, parenting style, and teacher sup­port in school. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multilevel multiple logistic regression run on Stata 13.Results: Good self-care in mentally retarded children increased with aged ?15 years (b= 4.61; 95% CI= 2.53 to 6.69; p<0.001), mild retardation (b= 2.02; 95% CI= 0.13 to 3.91; p= 0.036), maternal education ?senior high school (b= 1.23; 95% CI= 0.22 to 2.25; p= 0.017), and good maternal parenting style (b= 1.42; 95% CI= 0.21 to 2.62; p= 0.021). Good self-care decreased with undernourished children (b= -2.16; 95% CI= -3.44 to -0.87; p= 0.001), low maternal knowledge (b= -1.56; 95% CI= -2.90 to -0.22; p= 0.023), and weak teacher support (b= -3.34; 95% CI= -5.41 to -1.26; p= 0.002).Conclusion: Good self-care in mentally retarded children increases with aged ?15 years, mild retardation, maternal education ?senior high school, and good maternal parenting style.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is a form of malnutrition that has an impact on decreased learning achie­ve­ment, motor and mental development and intellectual. Exclusive breastfeeding is a perfect nu­tri­tion for the First 1,000 Days of Life for normal growth. Maternal nutritional status also plays an im­por­tant role for the success of breastfeeding whose indicators are measured by the duration of ex­­clu­sive breastfeeding and the nutritional status of children. Adequacy of zinc is an important mi­cro­nutrient during the child's growth period to prevent growth failure. This study aimed to analyze the association between exclusive breastfeeding, maternal nutritional status, maternal zinc in­ta­ke, and stunting in infants aged 6 months.Subjects and Method: This was cross sectional study conducted in the 3 areas of Community He­alth Center, Jember Regency. The subjects of the study were infants aged 6 month and 115 mo­thers. Infants were selected by cluster sampling and simple random sampling for each area. The zinc intake data was obtained by the 24 hours Recall. Body Mass Index was used to obtain maternal nu­­­tritional status data. The stunting data measured by microtoise. The other data were collected by ques­tionnaire. The data were analyzed by path analysis.Results: Exclusive breastfeeding (b = - 0.61; 95% CI = -1.42 to 0.21; p = 0.143) and maternal zinc in­take (b = -0.04; 95% CI = 1.35 to 0.58; p = 0.436) directly decreased the risk of stunting in in­fants. Maternal BMI indirectly affected the risk of stunting in infants through exclusive breast­feedingConclusion: Exclusive breastfeeding and maternal zinc intake directly decrease the risk of stun­ting in infants. Maternal BMI (Body Mass Index) indirectly affect to the risk of stunting in infants thro­ugh exclusive breastfeeding.Keywords:  Exclusive breastfeeding, nutritional status, zinc intake, stuntingCorrespondence: Ivanda Glanny Anindya.
