Background : The state of the body as a result of food consumption and the utilisation of nutrients as an energy source is known as nutritional status. Protein Energy Deficiency (PEM) continues to be the main cause of nutritional issues in Indonesia generally. In Kedu District, malnutrition was present in 275 instances (7.85%).Methods : PMT biscuits and high-protein lamb nuggets are used in an attempt to raise body weight.By offering intervention group treatment, the kind and design of this research employ a quasi-experimental study design. because two groups—the experimental group and the control group—were compared throughout the course of this study. The study included thirty-two toddlers with both very poor and poor nutritional status as its group. In this study, complete sampling is the sample method used.Result : When the p-value was compared before and after consuming Lor nuggets, the paired T-Test results showed that 0.000 (p≤0.005). Toddlers' weights before and after consuming Lor nuggets for a period of 14 days differed. In children with low nutritional status, lelor nuggets had a stronger influence on weight increase than PMT biscuits, with a mean difference between before and after the intervention of 0.4313 and 0.2438, respectively.Giving kids more food, like lelor nuggets, has the effect of making them heavier if they are malnourished. Toddlers who are malnourished are more likely to gain weight when given extra food along with their lelor nuggets. Body weight (Lelor Nugget Mean 0.4313, Standard Deviation 0.3860) before and after consumption. The body weight mean and standard deviation were 0.2065 and 0.2438, respectively, before and after consuming PMT Biscuits.Conclusions : Supplementary feeding of Lelor Nuggets is more influential in increasing the weight of toddlers with less nutritional status.

Background: The nutritional problems arising post-disaster in Aceh Jaya Regency include health crises such as the cessation of healthcare services, casualties, and injuries among refugees. Other factors contributing to nutritional issues include the availability of clean water, environmental sanitation, and infectious diseases. Disasters create emergency situations that potentially lead to food and nutrition crises. The aim of this research is to investigate the impact of children with stunted nutritional status on the intelligence levels of children in disaster-prone areas. Methode: This study employs an observational research design with a cross-sectional approach. Data collection took place from July 24th to 27th, 2023, in the Sampoinet sub-district of Aceh Jaya Regency, Aceh Province. The sample size was determined to be 92 individuals using purposive sampling technique. Instruments used to measure children's nutritional status include a portable standing height measurement tool (stadiometer), while intelligence assessment of students was conducted using the CPM (Coloured Progressive Matrices) test. Bivariate data analysis was carried out using the chi-square statistical test with a confidence interval of 95%. Results: The study findings indicate that female children are more likely to have below-average intelligence levels (38.3%) compared to male children with the same intelligence level (22.2%). However, statistical analysis results show no significant relationship between gender and intelligence level. Furthermore, 57.1% of stunted children have below-average intelligence levels compared to children with normal nutrition with the same intelligence level (22.5%). Statistical analysis results indicate that stunted children have an impact on intelligence level (p=0.009). Conclusion: Stunted nutritional status has an impact on the intelligence level of school-age children in the Sampoinet sub-district of Aceh Jaya Regency.

Background : Anemia in adolescent girls (rheumatism) will have an impact on health. The government's efforts to prevent and control anemia in adolescents include a program that provides iron tablets to adolescents every year. Providing information or knowledge can be done through health education. Several educational media developments with advanced technology have been carried out, such as through an audiovisual (video) approach. Not only does it have an attractive appearance, animated videos make the information provided last longer in the memory and make respondents satisfied/happy. The effectiveness of a video can also be seen from the length of time the information can remain in a person's memory. The aim of this research is to determine the effect of video media on knowledge of anemia prevention in adolescent girls.Methods : This type of research uses a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest group design. The population in the study was 58 respondents using a total sampling technique, with data analysis using the Mann Whitney test..Result : The results of the study showed that the knowledge of young women before providing health education using video media obtained results with a median of 21.97 with the lowest value being 12 and the highest value being 29. The knowledge of young women after providing health education using video media obtained results with a median of 26.62 with the lowest value being 21. and the highest score is 30. There is an influence of video media on knowledge of anemia prevention in young women (P value 0.000).Conclusions : Health workers, especially midwives, in providing health services can provide information to the public, especially young women, especially about anemia by encouraging a program to take Fe tablets correctly and appropriately.

Background: Growth is related to the size of physical body structures, while development is an interaction of organ functions such as motor development, language, socialization, and emotions. Stimulation is part of a post-natal environmental factor that is associated with psychosocial factors. From 32 weeks of pregnancy to 2 years of age is the most important stage in the motor development of the child where there is the fastest myelination process in the child's development. The phenomenon that is happening today is that parents lack an understanding of how to perform proper stimulation and have limited knowledge about child development. So there's a need for a medium that can help parents learn how to do the right stimulation so that the child can go through the developmental stages of his or her age.The aim of this study is to find out the impact of video stimulation of growing and development children. Metods: This method of research uses the research type Quasi Experimental Design. The subject of this study is a parent who has a child aged 6-24 months divided into two groups. (control and experiment). Respondents will receive health education related to stimulation of child development by lecture methods (control), and by video media (eksperimen).Results: The discrepancy between pretest and posttest (control and intervention groups), which are unmatched data, was analysed using the Mann-Whitney test. The analysis obtained p=0.219 (p0.05) showed no effect of video stimulation on the growth of children aged 6-24 months. Video media did not give a more significant influence when compared to leaflet media on the control group.Conclusion: There is an effect of growth and development stimulation videos and leaflets on the development of toddlers aged 6-24 months. But there is no significance of the difference between the two tools, namely growth and development stimulation videos and leaflets on the development of toddlers aged 6-24 months.

Background: Adolescence is the phase of transitional growth and development, ranged from 10 and 19 years. The serious issue that can occur among adolescent is unintended pregnancies. Unintended pregnancy not only affects the adolescent's health but also has social and economic impact. Unintended pregnancy can result from casual relationships, peer influences, and inadequate knowledge among adolescents. A high level of knowledge is expected to enhance the role of peers in preventing unintended pregnancy. Peers can play a role in preventing unintended pregnancy by acting as educators, motivators, and role models.Methods: The aim of this research is to describe the level of knowledge and peer role and their relationship as efforts in preventing unintended pregnancies. The research design is a cross estional study involving 200 female adolescents from high schools in Magelang City. The sampling method used is quota sampling. The instruments used are a knowledge questionnaire consisting of 25 questions and a peer role questionnaire consisting of 24 questions, both of which have undergone validity and reliability testing. The statistical test used is the Spearman Rank Test.Results: Respondents with a good level of knowledge amounted to 187 (93.5%). The role as an educator was high among 175 (87.5%), as a motivator among 138 (69%), and as a model among 158 (79%). There is a significant relationship between the level of knowledge and the role as an educator with a p-value of 0.04. However, there is no significant relationship between the level of knowledge and the role as a motivator with a p-value of 0.14, and there is no significant relationship between the level of knowledge and the role as a model with a p-value of 0.42.Conclusion: Knowledge is associated with the peer role as an educator. Peers can provide information about preventing unintended pregnancies, but efforts to prevent unintended pregnancies still need to be enhanced through the peer role as motivators and role models.
