Abstract

Iron deficiency anemia remains a major nutritional problem among adolescent girls, caused by low dietary iron intake and monthly menstrual blood loss. To prevent anemia, the Indonesian government has implemented a weekly iron supplementation program (Tablet Tambah Darah, TTD) for school-aged girls since 2014. However, adherence to TTD remains low, limiting program effectiveness. Adherence is influenced by students’ attitudes, support from parents or teachers, and perceived behavioral control. This study aimed to examine the relationship between attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control with TTD adherence among adolescent girls. A cross-sectional study was conducted at SMP Kartika II-2 Bandar Lampung, including the total population of seventh- and eighth-grade female students (n = 73). The dependent variable was TTD adherence, measured using the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale-8 (MMAS-8), while independent variables included attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test. Results showed that 65.8% of students were non-adherent to TTD. Significant associations were found between attitude (p = 0.044; OR = 1.8), subjective norms (p = 0.010; OR = 2.3), and perceived behavioral control (p = 0.000; OR = 3.6) with adherence. It is recommended that schools, through teachers and school health staff, implement a structured weekly TTD schedule and enhance supervision to improve adherence among students

Abstract

The prevalence of undernutrition among elementary school children in Indonesia is showing an increasing trend and is closely related to unbalanced eating patterns, particularly low intake of energy and protein. A diet that does not meet children's daily nutritional needs can lead to impaired growth and development, decreased academic performance, and weakened immunity. Therefore, improving dietary intake with foods high in energy and protein is one of the key strategies in addressing undernutrition in school-aged children. Nuggets made from processed chicken meat combined with moringa leaves and soybean flour are a potential alternative as snacks or side dishes that are rich in energy and protein. This study aims to determine the acceptability and nutritional content (proximate analysis) of chicken nuggets based on moringa leaves and soybean flour through organoleptic testing.The research used a completely randomized design (CRD) with four formulations tested by 30 panelists. The parameters assessed included color, aroma, taste, and texture using a 5-point hedonic scale. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test followed by the Mann-Whitney test, while proximate analysis was conducted in an accredited laboratory. The results showed that formulation F2 (50 grams of moringa leaves and 50 grams of soybean flour) was the most preferred by panelists in terms of color, aroma, taste, and texture. The nutritional content per 110 grams of nugget was 15,404 kcal of energy, 17.41 grams of protein, 2.42 grams of fat, and 15.64 grams of carbohydrates.

Abstract

Optimal nutritional status is a primary indicator of successful chronic disease management within the Program Pengelolaan Penyakit Kronis (Prolanis). This study aimed to analyze the association between macronutrient intake (energy, protein, fat, carbohydrates, fiber, and cholesterol) and Body Mass Index (BMI) among Prolanis participants. A cross-sectional observational study was conducted on 42 elderly subjects, with a majority being female (69%) and aged 60–70 years (61.9%). Dietary intake was assessed using a 24-hour recall method and analyzed using Pearson/Spearman correlation and linear regression tests. The results revealed that 66.7% of subjects had never received nutritional counseling. Statistical analysis showed a significant positive correlation (p<0.05) between BMI and the intake of energy (r=0.517), protein (r=0.537), fat (r=0.747), carbohydrates (r=0.391), and fiber (r=0.671). No significant correlation was found between cholesterol intake and BMI (p=0.538). Regression analysis identified fat intake as the most dominant factor influencing BMI (B=0.949; p=0.002). In conclusion, macronutrient and fiber intake are closely associated with the nutritional status of the elderly, with fat identified as the primary determinant of BMI among Prolanis participants. Strengthening routine nutritional counseling programs is recommended to prevent nutritional issues in elderly patients with chronic diseases.

Abstract

Lifestyle factors such as nutritional intake and physical activity often hinder successful blood pressure control.  This study aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of macronutrient intake, sodium, potassium, physical activity, and nutritional status of chronic disease management program members with hypertension in the working area of ​​Kotabumi II Health Center, North Lampung Regency in 2025. This was an observational analytical study with a cross-sectional approach involving 66 respondents at the Kotabumi II Public Health Center. Intake data were collected using the 24-hour food recall method, physical activity was measured using the Baecke Physical Activity Scale, and nutritional status was determined based on Body Mass Index (BMI). Bivariate data analysis was performed using the Chi-Square test and Pearson correlation. The majority of respondents were female (80.3%) and young-old adults (60–70 years). Most respondents had never received nutritional counseling (66.7%). Bivariate analysis showed a significant relationship between sodium intake (p=0.031), nutritional status (p=0.014), and physical activity (p=0.042) with blood pressure levels. The primary finding indicated that fat intake was the strongest determinant of BMI (p=0.002; r=0.747). There was an extreme nutritional imbalance characterized by high sodium intake (72.7%) and massive potassium deficiency (98.5%).  Nutritional status (obesity) and high fat intake are the dominant risk factors for hypertension among respondents.

Abstract

Iron deficiency anemia remains a nutritional problem among adolescent girls, due to low iron intake from daily food and monthly blood loss due to menstruation. To prevent anemia, the Indonesian government has implemented an iron supplementation program through weekly iron supplementation tablets (TTD) for female students since 2014. However, compliance with iron supplementation remains low due to low intention, thus suboptimal program effectiveness. Intention to consume iron supplementation is influenced by adolescents' attitudes, subjective norms, and behavioral control. This study aims to determine the relationship between attitudes, subjective norms, and behavioral control with iron supplementation intention in adolescent girls. This study used a cross-sectional approach at SMP Negeri 14 Bandar Lampung. Respondents were 224 female students in grades VII, VIII, and IX, with a sample size determined using the Slovin formula and drawn using stratified random sampling. The dependent variable was intention to consume iron supplementation, while the independent variables were attitude, subjective norms, and behavioral control. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test. The results showed that 51.3% of female students had a strong intention to drink iron tablets. There was a significant relationship between attitude (p = 0.000; OR = 3.1), subjective norm (p = 0.015; OR = 2.2) and students' intention to drink iron tablets. Furthermore, there was no significant relationship between behavioral control (p = 0.077) and students' intention to drink iron tablets. It is recommended that schools, through teachers and school health workers, facilitate the provision of iron tablets in sufficient quantities and increase supervision during joint iron tablet drinking activities at school.

Abstract

Dietary habits maintain a fundamental correlation with human neuropsychological function across all stages of the lifespan. The central focus of this research involves the complex biochemical interaction mechanisms between nutritional intake and the central nervous system in modulating mental health and cognitive trajectories. This study aims to map the influence of specific dietary patterns on brain morphological integrity and neuropsychological performance, ranging from the prenatal period to senescence. Scientific findings confirm that during the fetal stage, neural maturation is critically dependent on maternal diet via the regulation of glucose transporters (GLUT) 1 and 3; energy perturbations in these isoforms correlate significantly with an increased risk of neurodevelopmental disorders, such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and ADHD. In the adult phase, neuronutrition strategies through anti-inflammatory diets are proven to mediate neuroplasticity during post-stroke rehabilitation. Meanwhile, protocols involving high-dose creatine and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) supplementation effectively mitigate the cerebral "energy crisis" following concussions in athletes. Furthermore, low-glutamate dietary interventions show clinical efficacy in reducing depressive symptoms in Gulf War Illness (GWI) veterans by decreasing NMDA receptor excitotoxicity. In the elderly, the Mediterranean diet plays a protective role against cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s disease associated with decreased cerebral GLUT expression. It is recommended that integrated personalized neuronutrition protocols be adopted as a standard adjuvant strategy in the prevention and rehabilitation of neurological disorders across generations globally.

Abstract

Dental caries remains one of the most prevalent oral health problems among school-aged children globally, including in Indonesia. Poor dietary quality, characterized by high consumption of cariogenic foods and low intake of protective foods such as fruits and vegetables, is an important risk factor for dental caries, particularly in the first permanent molars. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between dietary quality and the incidence of first permanent molar caries among elementary school students at SDN 55 Gedong Tataan. A cross-sectional study was conducted from July to August 2025 involving 150 fourth- and fifth-grade students selected through total sampling. Dietary quality was assessed using a Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) covering food diversity, fruit and vegetable intake, frequency of cariogenic food consumption, snacking habits, and meal regularity. Dental caries examination of the first permanent molars was performed clinically by dental health professionals. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test with a significance level of p < 0.05 and Odds Ratio (OR). Children with poor dietary quality had a significantly higher risk of developing first permanent molar caries compared to those with good dietary quality (OR = 3.21; p = 0.002). There is a significant relationship between dietary quality and the incidence of first permanent molar caries among elementary school children. Improving dietary quality may play a crucial role in preventing dental caries.

Abstract

Anemia in pregnant women remains a significant public health problem and contributes to increased maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Microcytic hypochromic anemia is the most common type of anemia during pregnancy and is associated with various factors, including sociodemographic characteristics. This study aimed to analyze the association between sociodemographic factors and microcytic hypochromic anemia status among pregnant women at Permata Ibunda Mother and Child Hospital, Pandeglang Regency, in 2024. This study used an analytical observational design with a case-control approach. A total of 74 pregnant women were included and divided into case and control groups based on anemia status. Data were obtained from medical records and analyzed using the Chi-Square test with a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that age (p=0.027), education (p=0.032), healthcare class (p=0.035), and residential area (p=0.030) were significantly associated with microcytic hypochromic anemia, while occupation (p=0.127) was not significantly associated. Pregnant women with non-ideal age, lower educational level, lower healthcare class, and those living in rural areas had a higher risk of developing anemia. In conclusion, certain sociodemographic factors are associated with the occurrence of microcytic hypochromic anemia among pregnant women. Therefore, comprehensive interventions through health education, improved access to healthcare services, and enhancement of socioeconomic conditions are needed to reduce the prevalence of anemia in pregnant women.
