Abstract

Stunting is a global health problem that has a significant impact on the quality of human resources in the future, especially in Indonesia. Although various policies have been implemented to reduce the prevalence of stunting, the stunting rate is still high, indicating the need for further evaluation of the effectiveness of these policies. This article discusses the importance of using epidemiological unit indicators, such as stunting prevalence, infant mortality rate, immunization coverage, and sanitation, in monitoring and designing more effective stunting prevention policies. These indicators provide a clearer picture of the factors that influence the success of the policy, as well as support data-based decision-making. In addition, health education also plays an important role in stunting prevention efforts, especially through ongoing outreach programs for the community, especially pregnant and breastfeeding mothers. Effective outreach programs can raise awareness of the importance of balanced nutrition and good parenting during the First 1000 Days of Life. Through a multisectoral approach involving the health, education, and social sectors, as well as strengthening the role of health cadres, it is hoped that the prevalence of stunting can decrease significantly. This article also recommends the use of technology to expand the reach of health education and conduct regular policy evaluations to adjust to findings in the field.

Abstract

Integrated Health Service Posts (Posyandu) are community-based health efforts managed by cadres to provide easy access to basic health services, including anthropometric measurements of toddlers. The characteristics and roles of cadres influence the monitoring of toddler growth and development. This study aims to assess the characteristics, knowledge, and skills of Posyandu cadres in performing anthropometric measurements of toddlers at the Gedung Meneng Community Health Center, Tulang Bawang Regency. This research uses a quantitative descriptive approach with a sample of 46 cadres from the Gedung Meneng Community Health Center area. The results showed that the average age of the cadres is 41 years, with most having completed elementary school (45.7%), junior high school (28.3%), and high school (26.1%). All cadres have more than one year of work experience. The knowledge of cadres regarding anthropometric measurements is predominantly good (80.4%), while 19.6% have moderate knowledge. In terms of skills, 52.1% of cadres are skilled in measuring infant weight, 60.9% in digital weighing, and 63% in height measurement. However, 65.2% were not skilled in measuring body length, 71.8% in measuring arm circumference, and 58.7% in measuring head circumference. Despite good knowledge, skills were not fully optimized. Therefore, it is recommended that the Gedung Meneng Community Health Center involve nutritionists to provide re-training and continuous support to improve the skills of cadres.

Abstract

Cupcake is a snack as a side dish so the nutritional content is limited, it needs other alternatives such as the addition of other food ingredients to increase the nutritional content. The nutritional value of cupcakes can be increased by adding red spinach flour and anchovy flour which have high iron and calcium content. The purpose of this study was to Hetermine the organoleptic properties (color, taste, aroma, texture and overall acceptance) and iron and calcium content of cupcakes with the addition of red spinach flour and the most preferred anchovy flour. The method used is descriptive with one repetition in making the product. Based on the organoleptic test, it was found that the most preferred cupcake with the addition of red spinach flour and anchovy flour was formula 1 with the addition of red spinach flour and anchovy flour as much as 8%. The results of the iron analysis of cupcakes with the addition of red spinach flour and anchovy flour using TKPI amounted to 1.28 mg, while based on laboratory tests the iron content was found to be 8.7 mg. It is necessary to conduct a shelf life best to determine the shelf life of the cupcake can be consumed. When mixing melted butter, it must be ensured that it is evenly mixed so that the cupcake expands perfectly.

Abstract

Anemia is one of the nutritional problems that occurs in adolescents. In 2018, anemia in Lampung Province was 11.67%, while the prevalence of anemia in Bandar Lampung City was 23.37% (Lampung Provincial Health Office, 2018). The purpose of this study was to determine the level of knowledge, attitudes, consumption patterns of foods containing iron and compliance with the consumption of iron tablets in adolescent girls. The sample in this study was 38 adolescent girls, data collection for this study used a questionnaire on knowledge, attitudes, compliance with the consumption of iron tablets and FFQ. The location of the study was carried out at SMP IT Fitrah Insani Bandar Lampung. The results showed that the majority of adolescent girls had good knowledge of anemia (55.3%), positive attitudes regarding anemia treatment (52.6%), and poor consumption patterns of foods containing iron (57.9%). In addition, it is known that only 2.6% of adolescent girls consume Iron Tablets (TTD). The government already has a program to provide iron tablets, so schools are expected to provide health media about the benefits and invitations to consume iron tablets (TTD) in the school environment. Schools can also organize joint iron tablets once a week and provide independent iron tablets. Local health centers are expected to provide motivation and education about anemia and the benefits of iron tablets to increase the effectiveness of iron tablet consumption.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease that occurs because blood glucose levels increase due to impaired insulin secretion. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between carbohydrate intake and physical activity with fasting blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus at Puskesmas Mangkubumi in 2025. We used a cross-sectional design with 72 subject selected by quota sampling method. Chi-square was used to data analyze. The results showed that the majority of respondents were female (68.1%), and aged 50-69 years (76.4%). The majority of respondents were in excess carbohydrate intake (41.7%), moderate physical activity (45.8%), and uncontrolled blood glucose levels (61.1%). Bivariate results showed carbohydrate intake (p=0.018) had a significant relationship with fasting blood glucose levels, while physical activity had no significant relationship with fasting blood glucose levels (p=0.128). Carbohydrate intake showed a significant association with fasting blood glucose levels, while physical activity is not significantly related to blood glucose levels in patients with T2DM.

Abstract

Academic achievement among elementary school children is influenced by various factors, including nutritional status, diet quality, and nutrition knowledge. These factors play a crucial role in supporting cognitive development and learning performance. This study aimed to analyze the association between diet quality, nutritional status, and nutrition knowledge as predictors of academic achievement among elementary school children. A cross-sectional design was employed, involving 60 students selected using simple random sampling. Nutritional status was assessed using body mass index-for-age (BMI/A), diet quality was evaluated using a diet quality index score (range 0–100), and nutrition knowledge was measured using a standardized questionnaire. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 26. The Kolmogorov–Smirnov test was performed to confirm normality before conducting Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression analyses. The results showed significant correlations between academic achievement and diet quality (r = 0.42; p = 0.0012), nutritional status (r = 0.36; p = 0.0045), and nutrition knowledge (r = 0.28; p = 0.0321). Multiple regression analysis revealed that all three variables were significant predictors of academic achievement, with R² = 0.42 and adjusted R² = 0.39, indicating that 39% of the variance in academic achievement was explained by these predictors. In conclusion, diet quality, nutritional status, and nutrition knowledge contribute significantly to improving academic achievement among elementary school children.

Abstract

Uric acid and High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL) are important biomarkers associated with the risk of metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. Hyperuricemia is known to increase the risk of hypertension, metabolic syndrome, and heart disease, while low HDL levels contribute to atherosclerosis. However, the relationship between uric acid and HDL levels is still not entirely consistent in various studies. This study aims to analyze the relationship between uric acid and HDL levels in Prolanis patients at the Kedaton Community Health Center, Bandar Lampung. The study used a cross-sectional design involving 42 respondents aged 42–76 years. Data were collected through venous blood examination of 8 ml. HDL levels were measured using the Chod-Pap method, while uric acid levels were measured using the Uricase method. Data analysis used the Pearson test with a significance level of p <0.05. Based on the average HDL level of respondents was 49.79 ± 7.67 mg/dl, while uric acid levels were 7.17 ± 8.13 mg/dl. Correlation analysis showed a significant positive relationship between uric acid levels and HDL (r=0.339; p=0.028). There was a positive relationship between uric acid levels and HDL, indicating that uric acid, at certain levels, may act as an antioxidant that supports lipid metabolism. However, high uric acid levels remain a risk factor for metabolic disease. Further research with larger samples is needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract

Breast milk is the best nutrition for optimal growth and development in infants. It is essential for a child's growth and intelligence. Infants who are not exclusively breastfed until the first six months of life are at risk of developing infectious diseases such as severe diarrhea. This study was descriptive with a cross-sectional approach. The sample size was 38 respondents. The study was conducted in Bumi Waras Village, Bumi Waras District, Bandar Lampung City. Data collection took place in April 2024. Data analysis used chi square test. The results of the study showed that 10.5% of babies received exclusive breastfeeding. Mother who had low knowledge of exclusive breastfeeding was 63.2%, received rooming in care were 34.2%, carried out early breastfeeding initiation were 50%, found history difficulty in breastfeeding were 92.1%. Chi square test showed that there were no significant relationship between  exclusive breastfeeding and early breastfeeding initiation (p = 0.113), rooming in (p = 0.207), mothers' knowledge (p = 0.788). There was a significant relationship between breastfeeding techniques exclusive breastfeeding and exlusive breastfeeding (p = 0.02). The Community Health Center can provide education to pregnant women to choose health facilities that provide Rooming In and Early Breastfeeding Initiation (IMD). Health workers should provide education on exclusive breastfeeding and breastfeeding techniques to mothers from pregnancy through integrated health posts, pregnancy classes, and community health centers.
