Mothers’ characteristics, knowledge, attitude, and practice are some of the factors that influence the occurrence of intestinal helminthes infection on children. This study was aimed to find the association between mothers’ characteristics, knowledge, attitude, and practice and the occurrence of intestinal helminthes infection on children.Methods: The study was conducted at Jatinangor Cohort’s research center from August to September 2014 using cross sectional analysis. One hundred and forty five secondary data were collected using validated questionnaire that filled by mothers and results of feces on children were tested.

Abstract

Background In developed countries, birth weight of less than1,500 g contributes in infant delayed development. It might bedifferent in developing countries.Objective This study aimed to determine whether preterm infantswith birth weight of 1,500 to 2,499 g are risk factors for delayeddevelopment at 7-10 months of age.Methods We analyzed singleton infants at 7-10 months ofcorrected age, born with birth weight of 1,500 to 2,499 grams,preterm-appropriate for gestational age (or LBW group), and at7-10 months of chronological age, born with birth weight >2,500g-term-appropriate for gestational (non-LBW group) in a hospital-based retrospective cohort study. Data were taken from medicalrecords in Hasan Sadikin Hospital, Bandung, from September2003 to May 2004. We excluded infants with major congenitalanomalies, hyaline membrane disease, assisted ventilation, orexchange transfusion. Multiple regression logistic analysis wasperformed for data analysis.Results The percentage of delayed development in LBW groupwas higher than in non-LBW group (17.1% vs. 1.6%). Logisticregression analysis revealed that low birth weight was a risk factorfor delayed development (RR=5.13, 95%Cl 1.55;16.96, P=0.007).Other biological risk factors for delayed development arehyperbilirubinemia (RR=3.32, 95%Cl 1.29;8.54, P=0.013) andsepsis (RR=2.74, 95%Cl 1.15;6.52, P=0.023).Conclusions Preterm-appropriate for gestational age with birthweight of 1,500 to 2,499 g are risk factors for infant delayeddevelopment after being adjusted to other biological risk factors.

Abstract

Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by progressive renal injury with inevitable functional deterioration. This functional loss is usually slow, progressive, and irreversible. Chronic kidney disease profoundly influences the daily routines of pediatric patients and their families, requiring significant psychosocial adaptation by both patients and families. Objective To assess for potential associations between CKD and emotional/behavioral disorders in adolescents. Methods This cross-sectional study was done at the Pediatric Nephrology Outpatient Department, Hasan Sadikin Hospital, Bandung, West Java. The consecutive sampling included all patients who fulfilled the following criteria: (1) aged 10-18 years, (2) diagnosed with CKD at least 3 months prior to the study, and (3) whose parents provided informed consent. The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) was used to assess emotional/behavioral disorders. Socio-demographic and clinical data were collected from medical records and interviews with parents. Chi-square and Mann-Whitney tests were used in the statistical analyses. Results A total of 75 subjects with CKD participated in the study. The majority of the subjects were female (53%) and <14 years old (55%). Emotional/behavioral disorders were found in 24 subjects (32%). There were no significant correlations between age, gender, paternal and maternal education level, duration of illness, or treatment with emotional/behavioral problems. However, later stage of CKD was significantly associated with prosocial problems, based on the SDQ assessment. Conclusion Late stage CKD is significantly associated with prosocial problems of the SDQ scales.

Abstract

Stunting is a condition in which a child’s height or length is less than two deviation standard based on the 2006 World Health Organization’s growth chart. In Indonesia, most of stunting is caused by chronic malnutrition. Children of age 1-2 years old are vulnerable to malnutrition because at this age most of them start to be weaned and introduced to complementary food. The study aims to find the correlation between breasfeeding and complementary food with stunting among 1-2 year old children at Cisolok District, Sukabumi Regency, 2015. The Study was observasional-analytical, a case-control study, carried out from January 1 – February 28, 2016. Subjects were selected with consecutive sampling, including 1-2 year old children with stunting along with their mothers residing at Cisolok District, Sukabumi Regency. Data on the lengths of children were taken by the researcher in the local Integrated Service Post (Indonesia, Posyandu), and there was also a questionnaire of breastfeeding history and an SQ-FFQ filled out by nutritionists directly at the subjects’s houses. The data were analyzed with chi square, fisher’s exact, and linear regression tests with the level of significanceor (p<0.05). The results show that out of 108 subjects, there were 36 cases and 72 controls. The exclusive brestfeeding, breastfeeding after six months old, age at first introduction to compelentary food, and energy intake did not correlate with stunting (p>0.05). The protein intake correlated with stunting (p=0.009) with weak correlation coefficients (r=0.284). In conclusions, there was not correlation between breastfeeding (exclusive breastfeeding and breastfeeding after six months old), the age at first introduction to compelentary food, and energy intake with stunting among 1-2 year old children at Cisolok District, Sukabumi Regency, 2015. There was correlation between protein intake with stunting among 1-2 year old children at Cisolok District, Sukabumi Regency, 2015.

Abstract

From 10–19, adolescence is a transition from childhood to adulthood. There will be changes in the shape and function of the body in a reasonably short time. Sufficient and adequate nutrition for adolescents is one factor affecting their reproductive health. This community service aimed to monitor nutritional status and detect early signs of Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED). Monitoring of nutritional status is carried out for adolescents, especially young women. Physical health and healthy reproductive organs are essential in preparation for becoming healthy expectant mothers who can later give birth to a healthy generation. Holistic health education was needed in adolescents' growth to become better human beings in terms of their health. This activity was carried out in May 2023 at Junior High School, YPI Ciparay, and Bandung Regency. The target audience was young girls in 7th grade; there were 82 people. At the time, the students filled out questionnaires about their characteristics. Then the team measured the anthropometrics to determine the nutritional status and the incidence of CED by weighing, measuring height, and measuring upper arm circumference. The measurements showed that the nutritional status based on body mass index for most female students was standard, about 60.97%, and 41.46% of female students were CED. Counselling and health information were also provided holistically to increase the girls' understanding of their health status.
