Abstract

Background: Cesarean section incidence increases over time in both emergency and elective cases, or with medical indication and social factors. Despite the usefulness of C-section, parents need to be aware of its effect to child health and the countermeasure. Objectives: This study aims to explore mothers’ perspectives about the health effects of C-section to children. Methods: An open-ended survey was conducted on Indonesian mothers as participants in a cross-sectional study. A compilation of descriptive responses was collected at an online parenting community focused on children’s health. The questions are later classified into six particular categories and given an analysis. Results: A total of 175 inquiries were collected and categorized into 6 groups. In declining pattern, we found parental concern regarding the effect of C-section on the child's immune system (57.14%), nutrition and prebiotics/ probiotics/ synbiotic (22.28%), growth and development (8%), and gastrointestinal system (6.28%). A total of 42 questions (24%) can be categorized into more than one category. Conclusions: More than half of parents are concerned about the effect of C-section on children’s immune system, and one out of five mothers is concerned about the role of nutrition for their children’s health. However, the awareness and concern regarding C-section health impact on growth and development, and gastrointestinal system are still very low.

Abstract

Background: A major challenge in producing yogurt powder (YP) is the need for drying technology that maintains probiotic viability. In Small-Medium Enterprises (SMEs), adoption of such technologies to extend shelf life remains limited. The Fluidized Bed Dryer (FBD) provides a relatively simple method for producing YP from local legumes and salak. Objectives: To analyze the amount of Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB), Dietary Fiber (DF), and Nutritional Content (NC) in local legumes and Salak Flour (SF) that is processed with a FBD. Methods: An experimental design with four treatments was applied: Mungbean (MYP), Garut Redbean (RYP), Manonjaya Salak-Mungbean (MS-MYP), and Manonjaya Salak-Garut Redbean Yogurt Powder (MS-RYP). Parameters measured included microbiological properties, DF, and NC (total calories, calories from fat, ash, moisture, carbohydrate, fat, protein, sugar, cholesterol, sodium, zinc, iron, and calcium). Differences in NC were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test. Results: All YP samples contained LAB counts above the Indonesian National Standard (8 x 108 - 1 x 1010 cfu/g). DF content was higher in YP with added SF. Total ash, iron, and calcium were also higher in legume-based YP supplemented with SF, whereas sodium content was lower. Other nutrient levels were comparable between formulations with or without SF. Conclusions: Local legume YP added with SF contains higher levels of LAB, DF, total ash, iron, and calcium than legume YP alone.

Abstract

Background: The increasing use of digital applications to analyze nutritional status of children under five years offers significant progress in public health. However, the accuracy and precision of these tools continue to be a concern due to variations in data quality and user proficiency. Objectives: This study aimed to systematically evaluate the accuracy and precision of digital applications in calculating and assessing nutritional status of children under five years. Methods: A comprehensive systematic review was conducted by searching PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar databases for relevant studies published between 2010 and 2024. The study followed the PRISMA 2020 guidelines for article selection. Risk of bias was assessed using QUADAS-2 for diagnostic studies, then data were analyzed descriptively through a narrative synthesis of results on accuracy, data input methods, and user proficiency. Discussions: The results showed that out of 925 initially identified articles, 13 met the inclusion criteria and were further analyzed. Advanced algorithms, particularly K-Nearest Neighbor (K-NN) and other machine learning models had high accuracy when supported by quality data and adequate user training. Moreover, real-time IoT-based tools showed high precision in nutritional assessments. Challenges remain in ensuring accurate data entry and algorithm updates to meet the needs of diverse populations. Conclusions: Digital applications present promising accuracy and precision in evaluating nutritional status of children under five. However, continuous improvement in data quality and user training is essential for the optimal implementation in public health interventions.

Abstract

Background: Nearly the entire global population consumes excessive sodium. A food in sodium is salty snacks. Excessive sodium consumption can cause health problems such as hypertension, heart disease, stroke, and obesity. Salty snacks are popular and are frequently consumed and favored by the public. Objectives: To identify various commercial salty snack products and analyze their sodium content as well as their contribution to daily sodium and salt intake. Methods: The study was conducted through a survey of 32 commercial salty snacks produced in Indonesia and labeled with nutrition information. Products were collected from three supermarkets in East Surabaya—Superindo, Indomaret, and Alfamart, using a convenience sampling method. The survey was only conducted on small or medium packages of each product brand and variant so was limited. Results: A total of 32 salty snack products were identified and categorized into chips, light snacks, sticks and crackers, and nuts. The highest sodium content was 1394,4 mg per 100 g found in the sticks and crackers, which accounted for 50% of the daily sodium requirement. The average sodium content in other categories ranged around 500 mg, fulfilling 20-30% of the daily sodium. Conclusions: Commercial salty snack products are widely available in the market and generally contain high sodium levels. Attention to nutritional labeling, particularly sodium content, is essential in managing daily sodium and salt intake. In addition, the implementation of regulations or legislation regarding sodium labeling restrictions on salty snack products in Indonesia is necessary.

Abstract

Background: Children under two years old go through a rapid physical growth period, requiring the highest nutritional intake compared to other age groups. However, infant and young child feeding (IYCF) practices are often suboptimal, leading to nutritional and health problems. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the determinants of IYCF practices in Bengkulu Province. Methods: The study used a cross-sectional design from the 2017 IDHS data. The sample was women of childbearing age 15-49 years who had children aged 6-24 months, as many as 73 children with a stratified two-stage sampling technique. Data analysis using proportion difference test with chi-square test and multivariate binary logistic regression. Results: This study found that in 83.9% of urban areas and 91.5% of rural areas, the practice of IYCF is not by the recommendations. There is no difference in IYCF practice between urban and rural areas. Factors related to the practice of IYCF are pregnancy planning and antenatal care (ANC) quantity. Unplanned pregnancies had a risk of 4.8 times (p-value=0.04) the practice of IYCF was not as recommended compared to the intended pregnancies. The quantity of antenatal care that was not at risk was 4.8 times the practice of IYCF was not as recommended compared to the quantity of good ANC (p-value=0.05). Conclusions: Pregnancy planning needs to be educational material for young women, and an increase in efforts to increase knowledge of pregnant women about IYCF during antenatal care through nutrition counseling programs or classes for pregnant women in health facilities.
