Abstract

Women of childbearing age are a demographic group that is frequently afflicted by nutritional issues, including obesity and anemia. Obesity has been reported to influence the occurrence of anemia. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between obesity indicators and anemia among premarital women of reproductive age. This study used an observational design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 102 subjects from undergraduate students aged 18–25 years who were unmarried and had never been pregnant. Obesity indicators were assessed using anthropometric measurements, while anemia status was determined based on hemoglobin (Hb) levels. The results of the bivariate analysis showed a significant association between Body Mass Index (BMI) and body fat percentage with anemia (p < 0.05). In contrast, no significant association was found between waist circumference (WC), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) with anemia (p > 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that body fat percentage was the most significant predictor (p = 0.032). Specifically, the obese body fat percentage category exhibited an Odds Ratio (OR) value of 32.8 (95% CI: 1.79–603.40) against the normal category. In conclusion, body fat percentage may serve as a predictor of anemia among premarital women of reproductive age.

Abstract

Child undernutrition remains a public health concern in rural Indonesia, highlighting the need for locally available food-based interventions. Cassava is a potential local food, however, evidence the effectiveness of cassava-based products in improving the nutritional status of children remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate changes in nutritional status among children aged 12-59 months receiving cassava-based nuggets. This quasi-experimental pretest-posttest study compared anthropometric changes in 90 children who received cassava-based or wheat-flour-based nuggets (45 per group), at 100 g/day for four weeks. Weight-for-age (WAZ) and height-for-age (HAZ) Z-scores were assessed before and after supplementation. WAZ improved in both groups. The Mann–Whitney U test showed a significant difference in the distribution of WAZ change scores between groups (U = 661, p = 0.005), although the arithmetic mean change was numerically larger in the wheat-flour control group. After correction of one confirmed height-entry error and recalculation using WHO Child Growth Standards, mean HAZ changes were 0.10 ± 0.45 in the cassava group and 0.08 ± 0.17 in the control group, with no significant between-group difference (U = 865, p = 0.236). These findings support further evaluation of cassava-based nuggets as a locally adapted supplementary food but do not establish superiority in mean WAZ change or an effect on short-term linear growth.
