Purpose. Data on an association between Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) and nutritional status in children are conflicting. We designed a large-sampled prospective community-based study to examine the differences in average body indices among Polish teenagers depending on their H. pylori status. Methods. From September 2008 to June 2015, 3067 second junior high school students aged between 13 and 17 years (mean age: 14.5) from 11 randomly selected schools from Grudziadz, Poland, were recruited. For the cohort, 13C urea breath test for current H. pylori infection was performed and data on anthropometric measurements and sociodemographic characteristics were collected. Z scores of height for age (HAZ), weight for age (WAZ), and BMI for age (BMIZ) were calculated. Results. The H. pylori colonisation rate was 23.6% with no gender difference. Compared to noninfected, H. pylori infected had significantly lower mean WAZ (0.0085) and BMIZ scores ( p = 0.0246 ). Univariate linear regression models showed that living in the old town district and consumption of tap water were negative predictors of HAZ, living in the old town district, using collective catering facilities, and H. pylori infection were negative predictors of WAZ, and using collective catering facilities and H. pylori infection were negative predictors of BMIZ. In the multiple regression analyses, living in the old town district ( p = 0.0039 ), using collective catering facilities ( p < 0.0001 ), and H. pylori infection ( p = 0.0269 ) were confirmed to be independently associated with lower WAZ, whereas using collective catering facilities ( p < 0.0001 ) and H. pylori infection ( p = 0.0265 ) were confirmed to be independently associated also with lower BMIZ. Conclusion. Our finding confirms the evidence on independent negative influence of H. pylori infection on nutritional status in Polish teenagers.

Background : Nutritional status problems have many causes, including genetic, body metabolic conditions, behavior, environment, culture, and socioeconomic factors. One environmental factor that receives relatively limited attention is that children are exposed to undue stress, especially family stress. One of the factors influencing a child's nutritional status is his family. Family functions that run well can optimize the process of growth and development of children which can be described by the nutritional status. Optimization of nutritional status in children can not only be done from a clinical approach alone but needs holistic comprehensive management.Objective : The purpose of the study was to analyze the effect of a holistic comprehensive health service approach through family functions on optimizing the nutritional status of junior high school students.Method : This study was an observational analytic study with a cross sectional approach with the subjects of Malang City's "Z" Junior High School  students. Implementation in May- August 2019. The research subjects were 265 people with multistage random sampling. Data collection by interview. The analysis is displayed in the form of frequency distribution and correlation using the Spearman test and logistic regressionResults and Discussion : Family function is quite influential on nutritional status (r = 0.445). In logistic regression, the equation Y = 8.563-0.582X1 - 0.992X2-0.606X3 is obtained. The most  influential family function is partnership of 99.2%. Partnership describes communication,  mutual sharing, mutual complementarity between  family members in  all problems faced by family members, as well as the level of deliberation in making decisions and or resolving a problem that is being faced with other family members. Comprehensive holistic health service approach is sufficient effect on nutritional status (r = 0.463).Conclusion : The holistic comprehensive health service approach gives sufficient influence on the nutritional status of students in Malang City's "Z" Junior High School.

Background and purpose: The prevalence of obesity among youth in Indonesia was increasing. Obese young people have risk of having non-communicable disease and also affect the intelligence quotient. This study aimed to determine the association between nutritional status and intelligence quotient among junior high school students.Methods: Study was cross sectional with a sample of 176 respondents determined by simple random sampling. Data were collected through an IQ test using Standard Progressive Matrices method, weight and height measurement, and self-administered questionnaires. Data were analysed using Stata. Bivariate analysis using chi-square test and multivariate by poisson regression test.Results: Mean age of respondents was 12.2 years and mean of IQ was 105.8. There were 77 obese students, consisting of 48 (62.3%) males and 29 (37.7%) females. 47 students (26.7%) indicated a below average IQ, consisting of 24 (51.1%) males and 23 (48.9%) females. Bivariate analysis indicated that 55.8% of obese students had below average IQ meanwhile students with a normal nutritional status of 4,0%. On below average IQ 4.0% students never had obesity; 56.8% students <6 years of being obese and 67.5% students ?6 years of being obese. Multivariate analysis found that respondent’s intelligence quotient was associated with obesity (APR=6.6; 95%Cl: 2.0-21.5).Conclusion: Intelligence quotient was significantly associated with obesity and the period of obesity. The longer the period of being obese more likely had a below average IQ.

Background: Developmental disorders and high Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection rates have been reported. This study aimed to examine the prevalence of H. pylori in a special needs school where all students had developmental disorders in Japan.Methods: In 2017, third-grade junior high school and second- and third-grade high school students attending a special needs school with developmental disorders were enrolled. Participants of Saga Prefecture's H. pylori test and treat project, which comprised third-grade junior high school students not from special needs school, were assigned to the control group.Results: In the control group, H. pylori positive results were 3.18% (228/7,164) students. Similarly, in developmental disorder group, H. pylori positive results were 6.80% (13/191) students. For the developmental disorder and control groups, this present examination sensitivity was 7.03% (13/185), specificity was 96.76% (6,815/7,043), positive predictive value was 5.39% (13/241), negative predictive value was 97.54% (6,815/6,987), Likelihood ratio of a positive result 2.17 and Odds ratio was 2.26 (95% confidence interval: 1.27–4.03, p = 0.005).Conclusion: The prevalence of H. pylori infection was significantly higher in adolescents with developmental disorders than in typically developing adolescents.
