Abstract

Preeclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy disorder characterized by hypertension, edema, and proteinuria. Preeclampsia remains one of the main causes of maternal death in Indonesia. Preeclampsia can cause stunting of fetal growth because of unbalanced nutrition. Preeclampsia can result in insufficient blood flow to the placenta, reducing the intake of nutrients and oxygen by the fetus, which affects its weight. The long-term impact is that infants may have low birth weights (LBW). This study aimed to determine the estimated combined effect of preeclampsia in pregnant women and the incidence of LBW. This study used a meta-analysis method to analyze articles from Google Scholar using the following criteria: published between 2012 and 2024, full-text availability, case-control or cross-sectional studies, multivariate analysis, and reported odds ratios (OR). Articles were collected using the PRISMA diagram and analyzed using Review Manager 5.4 application with a random-effects analysis model. This study analyzed 36 cross-sectional results (OR 95% CI: 2.16; 1.51–3.08) and 22 case-control results (OR 95% CI: 3.15; 1.76–5.64), showing a significant association between preeclampsia in pregnant women and the incidence of low birth weight in infants (p-value < 0.00001, which is < 0.05). Pregnant women with high levels of preeclampsia were at a higher risk of giving birth to infants with low birth weight (odds ratio [OR 95% CI: 4.66; 1.76–12.31, p-value < 0.00001).

Abstract

This quasi-experimental study investigated the effects of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) on weight loss and cognitive function in patients with schizophrenia treated with risperidone. Conducted at Dadi Regional Special Hospital, South Sulawesi, Indonesia, the study included 40 participants who met the inclusion criteria, including males aged 20–40 years, with disease onset of fewer than five years, and receiving risperidone therapy (4–6 mg/day). The exclusion criteria included severe organic comorbidities and recent substance use. The participants were divided into treatment and control groups, with the former undergoing 30 HIIT sessions over 10 weeks. Each session lasted 25 min, incorporating warm-up, core HIIT, and cool-down phases, with heart rates monitored to ensure anaerobic intensity (80–90% of maximum heart rate). The results showed a significant weight reduction in the treatment group (mean decrease: 0.475 kg, p < 0.001), indicating the potential of HIIT to mitigate risperidone-induced weight gain. Cognitive performance, assessed via the Schizophrenia Cognitive Rating Scale (SCoRS v BI), improved in both groups, with no significant differences between them (p > 0.05). However, greater improvement was observed in the treatment group. This study supports the integration of HIIT as adjunct therapy for schizophrenia, offering the dual benefits of cognitive enhancement and weight management. Further research incorporating genetic factors and advanced monitoring tools is needed to refine these findings.

Abstract

The lack of knowledge about balanced nutrition is a factor in malnutrition among school-aged children. About 32.3% of elementary school children in East Jawa, Indonesia, experience malnutrition, including those at Pucang 1 Sidoarjo. Efforts to handle this issue can be made through counseling using animated videos. This study aimed to determine the effect of balanced nutrition counseling through an animated video on students' knowledge and attitudes at Pucang 1 Sidoarjo. This study involved 27 fifth-grader respondents who were recruited using a purposive sampling technique. This type of research is pre-experimental with a one-group pretest-posttest design. This study was conducted in August 2023. Data were analyzed using the Paired Sample T-Test and Wilcoxon Rank Test. The counseling significantly affected students’ knowledge (p=0.000) and attitudes (p=0.000).. The average knowledge score of students increased from 59.81±13.48 to 79.63±11.92 after the counseling. The average attitude score of students also increased from 79.66±4.72 to 85.37±7 after the counseling. Counseling on balanced nutrition using animated videos effectively improves the knowledge and attitudes of fifth-grade students at Pucang 1 Sidoarjo.

Abstract

The prevalence of stunting in various regions of East Java, particularly in the Tuban Regency, necessitates targeted intervention. This study aimed to assess the incidence of stunting in Tuban Regency using diverse analytical methods. It utilizes geographic mapping to illustrate the spatial distribution of stunting rates, and histograms to represent the percentage of stunting across individual villages. Notably, Mander Village in Tambakboyo District exhibits the highest prevalence, with 43.59% of toddlers affected by stunting. In 2023, the average stunting rate across the Tuban Regency was 11.53% per village, with a median of 9.69%. Alarmingly, over half of the villages failed to meet the 2024 RPJMN target, and 112 of 328 communities (34.15%) reported stunting rates exceeding 14%. Furthermore, the analysis revealed a Moran's I value of 0.216 and a p-value of 0.001, indicating significant geographical clustering of stunting cases within the region. This suggests that the prevalence of stunted toddlers in each village is influenced by similar rates in neighboring communities, highlighting the importance of a collaborative approach in addressing this public health challenge.

Abstract

Allergies pose significant health concerns, particularly in children, where they can adversely affect growth and quality of life. Recent studies have suggested that zinc deficiency may play a critical role in the immune dysregulation associated with allergies. The method used in This systematic review followed the PRISMA guidelines and analyzed studies on the relationship between zinc levels and allergies in children, using data from PubMed, Science Direct, EBSCO, and Cochrane Library, and a meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the effect size and risk of bias assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale to examine the relationship between zinc levels and allergies in children. Our findings indicate that children with allergies may exhibit different zinc levels compared to healthy controls, with a pooled effect size of -0.56 (95% CI: [-0.99, -0.13]). The analysis revealed significant heterogeneity (Tau² = 0.39; Chi² = 79.41, df = 8, p < 0.00001; I² = 90%), highlighting the variability across studies and the necessity for further research to standardize the methodologies. These results were statistically significant (Z = 2.54, p = 0.01), suggesting a potential association between zinc levels and allergies in children. Further investigations are needed to explore whether zinc supplementation can support immune function and alleviate allergic symptoms.

Abstract

The World Health Organization (WHO, 2021) classifies stunting as a major global health issue with a prevalence of 22% or around 149.2 million children in 2020. Factors such as maternal knowledge about nutrition, maternal attitudes towards meeting children's nutritional needs, and parenting practices are important in determining children's nutritional status and the risk of stunting, which can hurt adulthood. This study aims to examine the impact of maternal knowledge, attitudes, and childcare practices on the incidence of stunting in Central Lampung Regency. This study used a cross-sectional survey design involving 360 children aged 0–59 months selected by purposive sampling from six sub-districts. The data collected included child characteristics, nutritional status, maternal nutritional knowledge, attitudes, and practices using a validated questionnaire from previous studies. The LAZ/HAZ, WLZ/WHZ, and WAZ indicators measured children's nutritional status. Data analysis was done using the Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) method with SmartPLS 3.0. The results showed maternal knowledge significantly affected attitudes (p = 0.001 for Attitude1; p = 0.026 for Attitude2) but not parenting practices (p = 0.986). Maternal parenting practices had a significant effect on children's meal frequency (p = 0.000) but not on the incidence of malnutrition (p = 0.259) and stunting (p = 0.174). These findings emphasize the importance of interventions that improve maternal knowledge and parenting practices to reduce the risk of stunting.

Abstract

Food waste at Ngimbang Lamongan Regional Hospital during the first semester of 2022 exceeded 20%, with the highest food waste was in May at 29.12%. Meanwhile, the results of a preliminary study in 2024 showed food waste in May was 23.04%, June 24.34%, and July 24.46%. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between flavor and appearance of food and food waste among inpatients at Ngimbang Lamongan Hospital. This study used a cross-sectional approach and was conducted at Ngimbang Lamongan Hospital in August 2024 and October 2024. A total of 96 respondents were selected through purposive sampling. Data on food flavor and appearance collected through interview, while food waste measured using a visual Comstock form. Over a 10-day menu cycle, food waste average was 29.48%, with 60.42% of respondents reporting food waste exceeding 20%. The highest food waste occurred during lunch (32.36%), while staple foods being the most waste category (37.90%). The results of Chi-square test indicated that the most components of food flavor and appearance had a significant relationship with food waste (p-value <0.05). Specifically, food flavor attributes (aroma, seasoning, cooking level of the food, temperature, and texture of food) and appearance factors (color, shape, and presentation of food) were significantly associated with food waste, while portion size showed no significant relationship.

Abstract

Background: Mental health, diet, and physical activity play an important role in adolescents development. However, previous studies have reported inconsistent findings on the relationship between mental health, eating disorders, and physical activity. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted mental health, potentially contributing to eating disorders and reducing physical activity. Objectives: This study aimed to examine the association between mental health, eating disorders, and physical activity in adolescents during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A cross sectional quantitative study was conducted in 2022, involving 236 high school adolescents. Mental health was  assessed using the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS-21), eating disorders were evaluate with the Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26), and physical activity levels were measured using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). Results: More than 50% of adolescents experienced depression, anxiety, or stress with severity ranging from mild to very severe. While 82.6% of adolescents did not exhibit eating disorders, 63.6% had low physical activity levels. A significant association was found between depression and eating disorders (p=0.024), but no significant relationship was observed between anxiety (p=0.080) or stress (p=0.232) and eating disorders. Additionally, depression (p=0.411), anxiety (p=0.547) and stress (p=0.097) were not significantly associated with physical activity. Conclusion: During the COVID-19 pandemic, most adolescents experinced mental health challenges, maintened normal eating behaviors, and exhibited low physical activity. Depression was significantly correlated with eating disorders, while no significant associations were found between mental health variables and physical activity levels.

Abstract

A vegetarian diet is a pattern of food consumption that comes from plants in the form of vegetables, nuts, seeds, fruits, and does not or still consume dairy products and eggs. The implementation of a vegetarian diet in school-age children can have a positive impact on reducing the risk of certain diseases. In addition, the restriction of animal food sources causes vegetarians to be at risk of having a lower nutritional status. This literature review aims to analyze the effect of a vegetarian diet on the nutritional status of school-age children. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) approach was used in this literature review study. The steps taken consisted of identification, analysis, evaluation, classification and categorization of previously produced articles. Data and information sources were obtained through electronic databases published on Google Scholar, ProQuest, and Scopus. The selection category is articles that have been published in the last 10 years (2014-2024) and 251 journals were obtained. After several elimination processes, a total of 6 articles met the criteria to be selected. It was found that there was a significant difference based on BMI (p value<0.001), weight for height z-score (p=0.006 and p=0.103), BMI for age (p<0.001), and BMI (p = 0.004 and p = 0.001) in the effect of a vegetarian diet on the nutritional status of school-age children.

Abstract

Breastfeeding provides optimal nutrition for infants and offers significant health benefits to both mother and child. However, challenges such as perceived low milk production and workplace constraints hinder breastfeeding practices among mothers. This study evaluates the effectiveness of the Mom Uung Breastmilk Booster Supplement (BBS) in enhancing breastmilk production among working and non-working mothers. Using a cross-sectional design, data were collected from 665 breastfeeding mothers in Indonesia via a validated online questionnaire. Mothers who consumed X BBS reported increased breastmilk volume, breastfeeding frequency, and pumping efficiency, with significant improvements observed in both working and non-working groups (p<0.001). Non-working mothers demonstrated higher breastmilk production compared to working mothers. Key barriers identified included perceived low milk supply (30.3%) and work-related time constraints (11.6%). The study highlights the potential of X BBS to support breastfeeding practices and underscores the need for workplace policies that promote breastfeeding. Further research is recommended to validate these findings and objectively assess the impact of BBS on breast milk quantity and quality.
