Changes in Maternal Upper Arm Fat Stores Are Predictors of Variation in Infant Birth Weight

Latar Belakang: Anemia dalam kehamilan mempengaruhi lebih dari 500 juta wanita dalam masa kehamilan, yang nantinya dapat dikaitkan dengan gangguan pada ibu dan bayi. Suplementasi zat besi selama masa kehamilan diberikan secara terus menerus adalah alternatif yang menarik. Anemia sering terjadi akibat defisiensi zat besi dikarenakan pada ibu hamil terjadi peningkatan kebutuhan zat besi dua kali lipat akibat peningkatan volume darah tanpa ekspansi volume plasma, untuk memenuhi kebutuhan ibu (mencegah kehilangan darah pada saat melahirkan) dan pertumbuhan janin.Tujuan: Artikel ilmiah ini mencoba menelaah berdasarka studi literature hasil penelitian mengenai penggunaan tablet zat besi terhadap peningkatan berat badan lahir bayi. Metode: Studi ini merupakan tinjauan literatur yang dilakukan dari tiga jurnal penelitian yang dilakukan di Viet Nam dan Spayol dan systematic review dari beberapa Randomized Controlled Trial yang dilakukan di cluster dan communityHasil: Beberapa penelitian menyebutkan terdapat korelasi yang erat antara anemia pada saat kehamilan dengan kematian janin, abortus, cacat bawaan, berat bayi lahir rendah, cadangan zat besi yang berkurang pada anak atau anak lahir dalam keadaan anemia gizi.Kesimpulan: Pemberian zat besi selama kehamilan selama ini diyakini dapat mengatasi anemia dalam kehamilan untuk menghindari persalinan prematur dan perdarahan pada saat persalinan,Kata kunci :Berat badan lahir, zat besi ABSTRACT Background: Anemia in pregnancy affects more than 500 million women during pregnancy, which can later be associated with disorders of the mother and baby. Iron supplementation during pregnancy is given continuously is an attractive alternative. Anemia often occurs due to iron deficiency because in pregnant women there is a doubling of iron demand due to increased blood volume without plasma volume expansion, to meet the needs of the mother (preventing blood loss during childbirth) and fetal growth.Purpose: This scientific article tries to examine the literature based on the results of research on the use of iron tablets to increase infant birth weight.Methods: This study is a literature review conducted from three research journals conducted in Viet Nam and Spain and a systematic review of several Randomized Control Trials conducted in clusters and communities.Results: Several studies suggest that there is a close correlation between anemia during pregnancy and fetal death. , abortion, congenital defects, low birth weight, reduced iron reserves in children or children born in a state of nutritional anemia.Conclusion: The administration of iron during pregnancy is believed to be able to overcome anemia in pregnancy to avoid premature labor and bleeding during labor, Keywords: Birth weight, iron

ABSTRACT Background: Stunting can cause various developmental problems in children under five. Stunting can reduce a person productivity at a young age and increase the risks of developing non-communicable diseases when older. This study aimed to determine of maternal and hair zinc level on stunting and developmental disorders in under five aged children. Subjects and Method: This was a case study conducted at Gurah Public Health Center, Kediri Regency, East java, August 4-29, 2020. approach with a fixed disease sampling technique. A sample size of 100 subjects was selected by simple random sampling. The dependent variable was stunting and developmental disorders. The independent variables were pregnant women Mid-Upper Arm Circumference, exclusive breastfeeding, LBW, birth length, hair zinc level. The data were collected by questionnaire, measuring height and weight and checking hair zinc levels in the laboratory. The data were analyzed by path analysis. Results: Child development was influenced by Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (b= 0.12; SE= 0.36; p< 0.001), birth weight (b= 0.29; SE= 0.15; p= 0.042); birth length (b= 0.37; SE= 0.15; p= 0.011), breastfeeding (b= 0.08; SE= 0.04; p= 0.033), stunting (b= 0.39; SE= 0.10; p <0.001), hair zinc levels (b= 0.58; SE= 0.67; p <0.001). Hair zinc levels were affected by birth weight (b= 0.92; SE= 0.04; p <0.001). Stunting was affected by breastfeeding (b= 0.12; SE= 0.04; p <0.001); birth length (b= 0.73; SE= 0.06; p <0.001), zinc levels (b= 0.16; SE= 0.06; p= 0.006) Conclusion: Child development was influenced by Mid-Upper Arm Circumference, birth weight, birth length, breastfeeding, stunting, hair zinc levels. Hair zinc levels were affected by birth weight. Stunting was affected by breastfeeding, birth length, zinc levels.
