Abstract

Background: In the increasingly advanced era, advertisements for high-sugar foods and beverages are prevalent, which can negatively influence a person's behavior. It has been found that individuals may experience an increase in sugar-sweetened beverage consumption of up to 4,8 grams. The consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages has increased among undergraduate student, among nutrition students at UNESA, data show that approximately 48,46% frequently consume sugar-sweetened beverages more than five times per week. Excessive consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages significantly contributes to the incidence of overweight and hyperglycemia. This study is an extension that examines the sucrose content in sugar-sweetened beverages, building upon previous research that investigated the frequency of beverage consumption without considering their sucrose content.Objectives: To determine the relationship between sucrose intake from  sugar-sweetened beverages with overweight and hyperglycemia among Nutrition students at UNESA.Methods: A cross-sectional design was conducted on 95 students selected using stratified proportional purposive sampling. Data on sugar-sweetened beverage consumption were obtained through interviews using the SQ-FFQ. Fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels were measured using a glucometer. Nutritional status data were obtained from Body Mass Index (BMI) through measurements of height and weight. Bivariate data analysis was conducted using the Somers'd test.Results: 88,4% of respondents consumed a moderate amount sucrose intake from sugar-sweetened beverages (1–50 g/day), 76,8% had normal IMT  non-overweight (18,5-25 kg/m2), and 78,9% had normal fasting blood glucose  levels non-hypergycemia (< 90 mg/dL). There was a significant relationship between sucrose intake from sugar-sweetened beverage with overweight (P-value = 0,021; r = 0,407), but no significant relationship with hyperglycemia (P-value = 0,407) which is classified as a moderate correlation.Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between sucrose intake from sugar-sweetened beverage with overweight, but no significant relationship with hyperglycemia.

Abstract

Background: Malnutrition in infants and children, especially those under five years old, can hinder physical and mental growth. The Indonesian Nutritional Status Survey (SSGI) reported that the prevalence of stunting in Indonesia in 2024 is 19,8%. Protein plays a role in the regeneration of damaged cells as well as the formation of important enzymes and hormones in the body. Cookies are a popular snack among the public, thus chosen as a medium for innovative nutritional intake for children in the form of Supplementary Feeding.Objectives: This study is to determine the most preferred cookie formulation with the highest protein content, which could serve as an alternative supplementary food to help prevent stunting in children.Methods: This research employed an experimental design using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) to examine differences among cookie formulations and identify the best one. Four formulations are tested: 100% wheat flour (control), 75% cassava flour and 25% mung bean flour, 50% cassava flour and 50% mung bean flour, and 25% cassava flour and 75% mung bean flour. Organoleptic tests assessed appearance, aroma, color, taste, texture, and overall acceptability using a 5-point hedonic scale. The sensory evaluation involved 30 children as panelists. Protein content was analyzed using the Kjeldahl method at the Food Quality Analysis Laboratory of Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta. Data were analyzed using SPSS and Excel to identify significant differences among formulations.Results: Among the four formulations tested (F1, F2, F3, and F4),  it was found that the highest protein content was in F3 (11,62%) with a cassava flour to mung bean flour ratio of 50:50, while in the hedonic evaluation, Formula 3 received the highest average score for the taste attribute (4.46) and was the most preferred after the control (F1) in the overall attribute (4,40).Conclusion: The best formulation was F3, with a protein content of 11,62%, the highest among all samples. Although F3 ranked second in the acceptance test, after the control (F1), it holds strong potential as an alternative locally based supplementary food (PMT) due to its nutritional value.

Abstract

Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic syndrome disease characterized by high blood sugar levels influenced by obesity and physical inactivity.  Body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, waist-to-height ratio (WtHR) and neck circumference are proven to detect central obesity. Good exercise habits can control blood sugar levels.Objective: to determine the assosiation between anthropometric status (BMI, waist circumference, WtHR, neck circumference) and exercise habits with blood sugar levels in T2DM patients.Methods: This study is a quantitative observational study with a cross sectional design in 102 T2DM patients  internal medicine polyclinic at Dr. Moewardi Hospital through purposive sampling. Anthropometric status data were collected by direct measurement, exercise habits were measured using Baecke's exercise habits questionnaire, and blood sugar level data were obtained from patient medical records. The correlation test used the spearman test with a 95% confidence level. Multivariate test using multiple linear regression.Results: There was no assosiation between BMI, neck circumference and fasting blood sugar levels ( p=0,153; p=0,179). There is a significant assosiation between waist circumference, WtHR, exercise habits with fasting blood sugar levels (p=0,004; p=0,003; p=0,000). Waist circumference, WtHR and exercise habits have a significant effect on fasting blood sugar levels (p=0,001).Conclusion: There is a significant assosiation between waist circumference, WtHR and exercise habits on fasting blood sugar levels, while BMI is not significant.

Abstract

Background: The abundant Thryssa mystax resources in the Madura Strait hold strategic potential to support the local economy and food security. However, the traditional processing methods employed by IRT Jiddah and Barokah limit the enhancement of value-added and product competitiveness. This underscores the need for processing innovations, such as the development of fish sausage products, to improve quality, diversify products, and expand market opportunities. Objective: This study aimed to develop the most acceptable fish sausage formulation through hedonic sensory evaluation, while also analyzing the nutritional and microbiological characteristics of the selected product.Method: A completely randomized design was used with three treatments incorporating different proportions of Thryssa mystax (X1:250 g, X2:500 g, and X3:750 g). These were organoleptically evaluated by 40 semi-trained panelists to determine the best samples. The selected product was further analyzed for its nutritional composition and microbiological quality. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA at a 95% confidence level. This study was conducted in Surabaya from June to November 2024.Results: The organoleptic test results showed that the addition of Thryssa mystax had a significant effect on aroma, texture, and overall acceptance (p = 0,000), but not on color (p = 0,365) and taste (p = 0,503). X2 formulation (500 g) obtained the highest overall acceptance score of 4,3. These findings indicate that the X2 formulation not only provides sensory characteristics preferred by consumers but also has the potential to increase protein content and ensure stable sensory quality, making it suitable for application in small-scale household industry.Conclusion: Based on sensory evaluation across all attributes, the best formulation was X2. The X2 product contained 10,4% protein, 0,15% fat, 14,4% carbohydrates, 69,36% moisture, and 2,27% ash. Microbiological analysis showed a total plate count of 1,3 × 10⁵ CFU/g, which exceeded the maximum limit set by SNI.

Abstract

Background: Central obesity is one of the major risk factors for degenerative diseases. A health transition is currently occurring, in which central obesity continues to increase in developing countries such as Indonesia. Among adolescents aged >15 years, the prevalence of central obesity rose from 31% in 2018 to 36,8%. Adolescents with central obesity have an 80% likelihood of becoming obese in adulthood and a 75% increased risk of developing diabetes mellitus. The rising prevalence of central obesity in adolescents reflects a dietary shift from traditional diets rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to energy-dense diets high in added sugars, refined carbohydrates, saturated fats, fast foods, and low fiber intake.Objectives: This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of a portion size control on energy and fat intake among adolescents with central obesity.Methods: This study employed a true experimental design with a pre-posttest control group. The study subjects were adolescents aged 16–18 years from senior high schools that provided lunch programs. Participants were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. A total of 106 students were recruited and randomly assigned to either the intervention group (n = 53) or the control group (n = 53). The independent variable was the portion control tool, and the dependent variables were dietary energy and fat intake. Bivariate data analysis was performed using paired t-test for within-group comparisons and independent t-test for between-group comparisons to evaluate the intervention effects.Results: In the intervention group, the portion control tool was effective in reducing energy intake (p = 0,004) and fat intake (p = 0,024). When compared to the control group, the intervention group showed a greater reduction in energy and fat intake (p = 0,028; p = 0,004, respectively).Conclusion: The use of a portion control tool improved energy and fat intake among adolescents with central obesity.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is a growth failure condition in toddlers caused by chronic malnutrition, impacting physical and cognitive development as well as national productivity. In Banjarbaru City, stunting prevalence significantly decreased from 22,1% to 10,3% in 2023, likely due to factors such as high exclusive breastfeeding coverage, good maternal nutritional status, and adequate access to health services and sanitation.Objective: To analyze factors influencing the reduction of stunting in Banjarbaru City to support effective stunting prevention policies.Methods: The study was conducted in six public health center working areas with the lowest performance in Banjarbaru City in April 2024. This retrospective population-based case-control study involved children aged 12 to 59 months with stunting as cases and normal children as controls. Sample size was calculated using OpenEpi with a total of 78 samples in a 1:2 ratio. Cluster random sampling was used, and data were analyzed using chi-square tests or Fisher’s exact test when chi-square assumptions were not met.Results: The study found that only maternal anemia during pregnancy showed a significant association with stunting after controlling for other variables, with more than six times increased risk (aOR=6,54; 95% CI: 1,79–23,92; p=0,004). This indicates that maternal anemia is the dominant risk factor influencing stunting incidence in Banjarbaru.Conclusion: Maternal anemia affects stunting occurrence in Banjarbaru City, with pregnant women without anemia having a 7,5 times greater chance of having children who are not stunted.s.

Abstract

Background: Hemodialysis is the main renal replacement therapy for end-stage chronic kidney disease, yet global dietary compliance among patients remains low (30–70%), including in Indonesia. Limited nutritional knowledge, entrenched eating habits, and inadequate access to counseling contribute to this problem. Nurse-led telehealth nutrition interventions supported by digital platforms have emerged as innovative strategies to enhance patient education and adherence.Objective: To review current evidence on the effectiveness of nurse-led, telehealth-based nutritional interventions in improving dietary compliance among hemodialysis patients.Methods: A systematic narrative review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines. Literature searches in Scopus, PubMed, and Google Scholar identified studies published between 2015 and 2025 using the keywords telehealth, nutrition counseling, and hemodialysis. Twelve out of ninety-five studies met the inclusion criteria: original research involving adult hemodialysis patients receiving nurse- or healthcare worker–delivered telehealth nutrition counseling. Data were synthesized narratively, and risk of bias was evaluated descriptively based on study design and reporting quality.Results: Most studies demonstrated significant improvements in nutritional knowledge, dietary compliance, and self-management (9/12 studies, p < 0.05). Effects on clinical outcomes such as hemoglobin, serum phosphate, and interdialytic weight were inconsistent, influenced by intervention duration, study design, and methodological quality. Telehealth approaches were feasible, acceptable, and beneficial in contexts with limited in-person care.Conclusion: Nurse-led telehealth nutritional interventions effectively improve dietary compliance and patient self-management in hemodialysis populations. Integration into primary and hospital-based care may strengthen continuity of care.

Abstract

Background: Early detection of neonatal diseases can be done at home to prevent disease, reduce the burden of treatment, and reduce the risk of death. Neonates are susceptible to infection, so an application is needed to easily and quickly recognize the early symptoms of disease. This research does not support the local language, making it difficult for some mothers who are accustomed to using the local language.Method: The Research and Development (R&D) study design resulted in the development of an Android-based prototype application titled “Early Detection of Neonatal Diseases” (EDD-N). The steps in creating the application included: Focus Group Discussion (FGD), application concept design, development of the EDD-N application in collaboration with PT Bumantara Transformasi Digital, and feasibility testing. The research was conducted in Langsa City, Aceh Province, from June 3 to August 30, 2023. The number of respondents for each FGD and feasibility testing was 15 and 40 respondents, respectively. Feasibility testing used a Likert scale questionnaire with analysis in two stages.Results: The “Early Detection of Neonatal Diseases” (EDD-N) Android-based application consists of a main page titled “My Baby.” The application includes the health history of the mother and child, disease education comprising definitions, signs, and symptoms, and disease management. The content is presented in the form of images, videos, and narratives. Early detection is conducted via a questionnaire. The app's users include the general public, community health workers, healthcare professionals, and IT personnel. Users are rewarded with certificates, and the app's closing screen displays a logout menu. The usability test results for the EDD-N Android app from stage 1 to stage 2 yielded a value of 1.9. The p-value was 0,0001. The change in the EDD-N app process from stage 1 to stage 2 was 1.7. P-value 0,0001 (<0,05).Conclusion: The EDD-N app can be used for early detection of neonatal diseases.

Abstract

Background: Liver diseases such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and cirrhosis are influenced by factors like viral infections, alcohol, immune dysfunction, genetic predisposition, and metabolic factors. Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs)—leucine, isoleucine, and valine—are vital for protein metabolism and liver function. The role of BCAAs in liver disease and metabolic changes requires further study.Objectives:  To evaluate the role of BCAAs in nutritional status and metabolic changes in liver disease through a systematic review.Methods: A systematic review was conducted following the PRISMA protocol. Literature was searched on Google Scholar for publications from 2019 to 2024. Studies were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Descriptive analysis summarized the findings, and statistical tests evaluated the relationship between BCAA consumption or supplementation and liver disease progression.Results: Eight studies met the inclusion criteria. High BCAA consumption was associated with an increased risk of NAFLD (OR = 1,32, p < 0,001). In contrast, BCAA supplementation improved MELD and CP scores in cirrhotic patients. Elevated BCAA levels were also linked to a higher risk of type 2 diabetes (OR = 1,60, 95% CI = 1,14-2,23, p = 0,006).Conclusions: BCAA supplementation may help slow cirrhosis progression and improve sarcopenia and liver function. However, its use should be tailored to avoid adverse effects. More research is needed to explore long-term effects on liver disease.

Abstract

Background: Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is the most common congenital heart defect in neonates. Its association with congenital syphilis is rarely reported, although transplacental infection by Treponema pallidum can cause multisystem involvement.Objective: To report a case of VSD in a neonate with congenital syphilis and to document relevant clinical and diagnostic findings.Methods: A descriptive case report was conducted on a 14-day-old female neonate delivered via cesarean section to a mother with reactive syphilis and gestational hypertension. Congenital syphilis was confirmed by VDRL and TPHA serological testing. Clinical evaluation and echocardiography were performed to assess cardiac anomalies.Results: Echocardiography revealed a 7,6 mm VSD with bidirectional shunt involving the inlet, muscular, and subaortic regions. These findings provide a detailed description of structural heart involvement in a neonate with congenital syphilis, although a direct causal relationship cannot be established.Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of early maternal syphilis screening and neonatal cardiac evaluation. The report serves as preliminary documentation for monitoring potential cardiac anomalies in neonates with congenital syphilis and encourages further investigation into possible clinical associations.
