Anthropometric Wall Chart (AWC) TB/U is a tool developed to screen nutritional status that is easy and fast to use for children aged 6-12 years in the population. The accuracy of the tool in measuring stunting can be seen from its validity. This study aims to get the validity of AWC in 3 (three) cities representing the West (Medan), Central (Bandung) and East (Kupang), Indonesia so that the results could be used for stunting screening of elementary school children wider coverage. The study was conducted in a cross-sectional manner with a sample of 270 elementary students from grade 1 to grade 6 in 3 cities (Medan, Kupang, and Bandung) whose nutritional status was measured by using AWC TB / U and TB / U index using microtoise. The results of the study of the use of AWC in Medan showed that there were 20 (22.2%) stunting children, with Se value of 68.8% and Sp value of 87.8%, PPV 55%, and NPV 92.9%. In Kupang, there were 21 (23.3%) children who were stunting with a value of Se 60.0% and Sp 98.2%, and in Bandung, there were 12 (13.3%) stunted children with Se value of 72.7% and Sp 94.9%. Combined in 3 (three) cities get Se value 66.0% and Sp 93.3%, PPV 73.6% and NPV 90.3%. AWC TB / U can be used as a stunting screening tool for diagnosis with the aim of a high Sp value. For students who are detected stunted, further treatment is needed to overcome their nutritional problems.

Zinc is a micronutrient in protein synthesis, cell differentiation and regulated growth for every cell in the body. Micronutrients such as zinc play a role in growth which affects the hormones that play a role in bone growth. Zinc deficiency can interfere with growth and development that is not optimal. This study aims to see the relationship between zinc mineral intake, mother's education level and family income with the nutritional status of elementary school children in Tuah Negeri, Musi Rawas District. This type of research used an observational study with a cross-sectional design. Sampling using simple random sampling technique. The number of samples is 75 respondents. Retrieval of data on the level of mother's education and family income with the interview method using a questionnaire. Data on the adequacy of zinc intake were carried out. SQ-FFQ interviews were asked about the amount of food in a questionnaire for the last period. Measurement of TB/u was carried out using anthropometry. The results of the statistical study showed that there was no relationship between the level of mother's education and the nutritional status of elementary school children (p = 1000). There was no relationship between zinc mineral intake and nutritional status in school children (p = 0.161). There is a close relationship with parents' income (p = 0.028) with the nutritional status of school children. The conclusion of this study is that children with a family income <UMR have the possibility of 4,327 times experiencing stuning.

Lack of physical activity and excess energy consumption have an impact on increasing the prevalence of obesi-ty in elementary school children. Furthermore, this condition is often associated with cardiorespiratory fitness. This condition certainly has an impact on increasing the risk of non-communicable diseases. It is necessary to know the nutritional status and physical fitness level in elementary school children so that early intervention can be done to prevent obesity among children. This study uses a cross-sectional study design. The population in this study were elementary school students aged 10-12 years in Bali Province. A total of 704 students were selected by purposive sampling. Data collected included the characteristics of respondents through interview methods, anthropometry measurements (BMI/Age), and fitness measurements. Fitness Tests are carried out using the single test method (a walk/run test as far as 1200 meters). Eligibility criteria are students aged 10-12 years, not in illness/disability, and willing to take a fitness test. Data were analyzed descriptively and analyti-cally using the chi-square method. This study found that nutritional status for very thin, thin, normal, over-weight, and obese were 3.6%, 19.5%, 46.1%, 29.6%, and 1.2%, respectively. Meanwhile fitness for less fit, quite fit and fit respectively were 64.1%, 22.7%, and 13.15%, respectively. There is a significant relationship obtained between age, sex, and nutritional status with fitness (p <0.05). It is recommended to improve the nu-tritional status of overweight and obese students as well as increase physical activity among students to im-prove their fitness.

Dietary habit is behaviors that are appropriate for the selection of the right foods so that they will provide good nutritional status. Nutrients that consist of macronutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, and micro substances such as vitamins and minerals needed by the body for the process of growth and development. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between eating patterns with the nutritional status and cognitive abilities of elementary school children. Cross-Sectional research design. The population in this study were all students as many as 367 students, the sampling used was a Stratified random sampling technique, a sample of 192 respondents. Data analysis uses the Spearman Rank Rho statistical test. The results of the analysis of dietary variables with nutritional status were obtained ρ (0.003) <α (0.05), so H0 was rejected, meaning that there was a relationship between eating patterns and nutritional status of school-age children, with a value of r = 0.210 which showed a high positive correlation. The results of the analysis of nutritional status variables with cognitive abilities obtained results ρ = 0.00, <α = 0.05. meaning that there is a relationship between nutritional status and cognitive learning achievement in elementary school children. Normal nutritional status can be obtained by applying a positive diet so that the intake that enters the body in accordance with the needs of the body. Children who have normal nutritional status have good cognitive abilities. Parents are the most important support in optimizing children's growth and development

Background: Children in primary schools use school bags to carry study material, although the heavy bags are often associated with musculoskeletal problems, especially back pain. This practice requires strength, which significantly changes the body posture and walking pattern, subsequently leading to the incidence of back pain as a side effect. The aim of this study, therefore, is to analyze the differences in bag loads between elementary school children in urban and suburban area, and also analyze the relationship with the occurrence of back pain. Design and methods: This was a cross sectional study, which used stratified random sampling to choose 2 elementary schools each representing the urban and suburban areas. Furthermore, a total sample of 164 students were selected, whose school bag weight were measured for 5 consecutive days, particularly in the morning on respondents arrival at school. Moreover, the occurrence of back pain was evaluated using a modified Nordic map, and data analysis required the use of independent sample analysis t test and χ2 test.Results: The results showed the presence of highly significant differences in the school bags weight of respondents in the urban and suburban areas, as well as between schools using the 2013 curriculum and otherwise. Conclusions: In conclusion, there is a correlation between the weight measured and the occurrence of back pain, hence the 2013 curriculum is recommended to be adopted by all elementary schools. Also, the use of lockers to store items used at school repeatedly by children is also highly encouraged.
