Abstract

Background: Malnutrition is a public health problem, especially in developing countries. Malnutrition of children can affect brain development during growth and increase morbidity and mortality. Low birth weight (LBW) plays an important role in child morbidity and mortality. The prevalence of malnutrition in children under five years old and LBW in Indonesia are still high.Objective: This study aimed to assess the risk of LBW on the incidence of malnutrition in children under five years old in coastal areas.Method: This was an observational analytic study with case control approach. The study was conducted on 64 respondents in the coastal area of Kendari City, Southeast Sulawesi on November to December 2018. Case group (n=16) was children under five years old who experienced malnutrition in the working area of Abeli, Mata and Benu-Benua Health Center in October 2018. Control group (n=48) was taken by measuring body weight and then adjusted to the category and threshold of nutritional status based on the body weight index according to age. Sixteen respondents of case group were recruited using total sampling. Forty-eight respondents of control group were also recruited using purposive sampling with non-matching method according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The Odd Ratio (OR) statistical test was used with a 2x2 contingency table and a 95% confidence level with a significance level of α = 0.05.Results: The majority of respondents were 25-48 months old, and maternal age was mostly 36-45 years old in the case group (37.5%) and 26-35 years old in the control group (50.0%). The majority of maternal education level was junior high school in the case group (43.7%) and high school in the control group (47.9%). The statistical test results were obtained OR = 5.923 (CI=95%) with Lower Limit (1.724) and Upper Limit (20.346).  Conclusion: Infants with LBW had a 5 times higher risk for experiencing malnutrition in childhood in coastal areas. Therefore, knowledge of LBW and malnutrition is needed to improve public health status.

Abstract

Background: Menopausal symptoms are common problem in menopausal women. The severity of menopausal symptoms is influenced by the interaction of biological, genetic and nutritional factors.Objective: This study aimed to determine correlation between menopausal symptoms and fish consumption of postmenopausal women in the coastal areas.Method: This was a cross-sectional study conducted on 234 postmenopausal women in the coastal areas of Southeast Sulawesi. Severity of menopausal symptoms was assessed using Menopause Rating Scale (MRS). Quantity of fish consumption was calculated using 24-hour recall questionnaires. Frequency of fish consumption was evaluated using Food Frequency Questionnaires (FFQ). Data analysis used Chi-square test with a significance value of p=0.05.Results: The majority of fish consumption was sufficient in quantity (81.6%) and frequency (95.3%). Menopausal symptoms are found to be very mild (14.1%), mild (36.3%), moderate (38.5%), and severe (11.1%). There was a correlation between menopausal symptoms and the quantity of fish consumption (p=0.000), and between menopausal symptoms and the frequency of fish consumption (p=0.000).  Conclusion: There was a correlation between menopausal symptoms and fish consumption of postmenopausal women, both in the quantity and frequency. Therefore, increasing the quantity and frequency of fish consumption will reduce the severity of menopausal symptoms.

Abstract

Background: Benzene is a hematotoxic and carcinogenic compound contained in the glue used in the shoe industry. This compound has been suspected of causing decreased leukocyte counts, which is one of the blood cell production disorders. Benzene exposure can be determined by measuring the concentration of S-phenylmercapturic acid (S-PMA) in urine.Objective: This study was conducted to determine the association between S-PMA urine concentration and the leukocyte count of shoe industry workers.Methods: The study design was cross sectional and the data were collected by conducting interviews, analyzing urine samples for S-PMA concentrations, and conducting blood examinations. Chi square and multiple logistic regression were used for the analysis.Results: The results showed there were no concentrations of S-PMA in urine that exceeded the Biological Exposure Index (BEI) value (≤25 μg/g creatinine). Higher S-PMA concentrations in this study show a higher risk of decreased leukocyte counts. When controlling for age, duration of work, history of infection, Body Mass Index (BMI), smoking, occupation, and exercise, workers with high S-PMA urine concentration were found to be at higher risk of a decreased leukocyte count.Conclusion: Although S-PMA urine concentrations were still below BEI values, workers with higher S-PMA urine concentration were more at risk of leukocyte counts of < 5.0 x 103/μL. The decrease in the minimum BEI S-PMA limit value was lower than the current standard may need to be considered.
