Nutrient intake is one of the factors affect nutritional status. International students who live in other countries face different environment from their own country. The differences affects food habits, nutritional adequacy level, and nutritional status of international students. This study aimed to analyze the correlation of nutrition intake and nutritional status among international students in Surabaya. This cross-sectional study included 30 respondents. Food consumption was collected by Semi-Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire. Nutritional status determined by body weight and height. Chi-square test was used to analyze the correlation variables. The average energy intake of international students were 1,888 ± 379 kcal per day. The percentage of overweight international students were 20% and underweight were 16.7%. The results showed low correlation between energy (r=0.370) and protein (r=0.380) adequacy level with nutritional status, moderate correlation between fat adequacy level (r=0.410) and nutritional status, and no correlation between carbohydrate adequacy level (r=-) with nutritional status. The conclusion was lower macronutrient intake causes inadequacy energy level which causes one third of international students didn’t have normal nutritional status. Therefore, international students need to increase macronutrient intake by increasing meal-portion, choosing balanced food, and not skipping meal time.

Background: Nutritional status is the best indicator of the child health. Malnutrition has both short and long term adverse ramifications. As per NFHS III 47% children are stunted in the state of Chhattisgarh. However still many communities in the tribal dominated and naxal affected state may remain affected, hence the study was planned to identify the nutritional status of children and find out its determinant.Methods: Present cross-sectional study was conducted among 12-59 months children in the urban slum of Jagdalpur city, Bastar region of Chhattisgarh. Predesigned and pretested questionnaire was administered to the caregiver of the child, information on socio-demographic characteristics was obtained and anthropometric measurements were taken. Statistical Analysis: all frequencies were derived for completeness of data. WHO Anthro Software version 3.1.0 was used to classify the malnutrition status. Chi-square test was applied to find association between dependent variables.Results: Out of 225 children 53.3% were boys and 46.7% were girls. The overall prevalence of underweight stunting and wasting was 28.4%, 41.3%, and 19.1% respectively.Conclusions: Prevalence of underweight has reduced in the district over a period of years. However high level of stunting, a sign of chronic hunger points towards the pivotal role of socio-demographic and behavioral practices prevalent in the district. Interaction with health system in the form of ANC, institutional delivery and safeguarding effective 100% immunization coverage has shown preventive effect.

Background: Anaemia is one of the important silent morbidity in childhood that affects the development of a child. Disabled children are more vulnerable for nutritional problems like under-nutrition or anaemia due to inadequate nutrient intake either due to feeding problems or poor feeding knowledge among care providers. However there are very few studies regarding nutritional problems of intellectually disabled. The aims of the study were to assess the nutritional status and magnitude of anaemia among mentally challenged children and to study the socio-demographic variables associated with anaemia among them.Methods: A Cross sectional study was conducted in a Day School for mentally challenged in Ahmednagar. All 45 children (Day scholars) were enrolled in the study. Data collection was done using a predesigned proforma for detail history. Anthropometric measurements and Body mass index were used for assessment of nutritional status. Haemoglobin estimation was done by using Sahali's Haemoglobinometer. The details of socioeconomic status and intelligence quotient (I.Q.) were taken from the official records of the school. Percentages, proportions and Chi square test were used for Statistical Analysis.Results: The mean age was 12.5 years, mean IQ was 37.8. More than half of the children were undernourished (64% had BMI<18.5). Mean Haemoglobin was 10.3 and 33 (73%) children were suffering from mild to moderate anaemia. Significant association was observed between degree of mental retardation and anaemia.Conclusions: Majority of mentally challenged children in our study were suffering from under nutrition and anaemia.

Background: Toddler is an important period in child growth that will determine the future development. The accuracy of toddler feeding is affected by mother’s knowledge of nutrition, considering mother as the main food provider for family. Besides, nutrition intake of toddler could also affected nutritional status. Objectives: This study aimed to determine associated of mother’s nutrition knowledge and toddler’s nutrition intake with toddler’s nutritional status (WAZ) at the age 12-24 months. Methods: This study was an observational analytic research with cross-sectional design in Tambak Wedi Village, Kenjeran Sub District, Surabaya done in July 2017. The sample was 47 toddlers at the age of 12-24 months. The independent variables were mother’s characteristic (age, employment, education, family income), mother’s nutritional knowledge, and toddler’s nutrition intake (calories, carbohydrate, protein and fat). The dependent variable was toddler’s nutritional status. The data collected by interview used questionnaire such as 2x24 hours food recall for toddler’s intake nutrition, and weight measurement. Results: The result showed that most of respondents have good knowledge with normal nutritional status (81.8%) and respondents have less knowledge with unnormal nutritional status (92.9%). The result of chi square test showed that there was a relation between mother’s knowledge (p = 0.000), toddler’s calori (p = 0.008), carbohydrate (p = 0.024) and protein intake (p = 0.002). Meanwhile, there was no association between characteristic of motherand fat intake (p = 0.175) with nutritional status (WAZ). Conclusions: The conlusion of this study is toddler’s nutritional status influenced by mother’s knowledge about nutrition and toddler’s nutrition intake. Therefore, it is necessary to increase mother’s knowledge about nutrition through counseling and increase toddler’s nutrition intake (calories, carbohydrate and protein). ABSTRAK Latar Belakang: Masa balita merupakan suatu periode penting dalam tumbuh kembang anak karena masa balita yang akan menentukan perkembangan anak di masa selanjutnya. Ketepatan pemberian makan pada balita dapat dipengaruhi oleh pengetahuan ibu tentang gizi karena ibu sebagai tombak dalam penyedia makanan untuk keluarga. Selain pengetahuan ibu tentang gizi, tingkat asupan makan balita juga dapat secara langsung mempengaruhi status gizi balita tersebut.Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui hubungan pengetahuan ibu tentang gizi dan asupan makan balita dengan status gizi balita (BB/U) usia 12-24 bulan.Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian observasional analitik dengan desain cross-sectional dan dilakukan di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Tambak Wedi Kecamatan Kenjeran Kota Surabaya pada bulan Juli 2017. Sampel penelitian yaitu balita usia 12-24 bulan sebanyak 47 balita. Variabel independen yang diteliti adalah karakteristik ibu (usia, pekerjaan, pendidikan dan pendapatan keluarga), pengetahuan ibu tentang gizi, dan asupan makan balita (energi, karbohidrat, protein dan lemak). Variabel dependen yang diteliti adalah status gizi balita (BB/U). Pengumpulan data dilakukan menggunakan metode wawancara dengan kuesioner recall 2x24 jam untuk mengetahui asupan makan balita dan pengukuran berat badan balita.Hasil: Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar ibu balita memiliki pengetahuan tentang gizi yang baik dengan status gizi balita normal (81,8%) dan yang memiliki pengetahuan kurang dengan status gizi balita tidak normal (92,9%). Hasil uji statistik chi square menunjukkan adanya hubungan antara pengetahuan ibu (p = 0,000), asupan energi (p = 0,008), asupan karbohidrat (p = 0,024) dan asupan protein balita (p = 0,002) dengan status gizi balita (BB/U). Namun, tidak terdapat hubungan antara karakteristik ibu dan asupan lemak balita (p = 0,175) dengan status gizi balita (BB/U).Kesimpulan: Status gizi balita dipengaruhi oleh pengetahuan ibu tentang gizi dan asupan makan balita (energi, karbohidrat dan protein). Oleh karena itu, diperlukan peningkatan pengetahuan ibu tentang gizi melalui penyuluhan dan peningkatan asupan makan balita (energi, karbohidrat dan protein).

Objective: To characterize the nutritional status of quilombola students and determine the food security status of their households. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study with students aged six to nineteen years from quilombola communities in twelve municipalities of Goiás categorized by age, gender, school location (urban/rural), and nutritional status based on the World Health Organization's height-for-age and body mass index for-age charts. The Brazilian Food Insecurity Scale was used for measuring food (in)security in their families. Descriptive and association analyses were conducted using the Chi-square test at a significance level of 5% (p<0.05). Results: In a sample of 226 students, overweight (17.2%) was more common than malnutrition (1.3%), especially in students attending urban schools (28.2%) (p<0.05). Most (75.2%) quilombola families experienced food insecurity, especially mild. Conclusion: The apparent contradiction of excess weight and food insecurity occurring simultaneously indicates the need of revising the study instruments and the causal network that identify poverty.

AbstractSomatotype is the parameter used to determine the body composition, which is influenced by several factors and nutrition is the crucial one. This study aimed to determine somatotype and nutritional status as well as investigate the somatotype variations in relation to the age and nutritional status among the adult males of Sabar community living in Purulia district of West Bengal, India. The present cross-sectional study included 334 Sabar males aged between 18 to 60 years. Anthropometric measurements including height, weight, 2 breadths, 2 circumferences and 4 skinfolds were taken following standard protocol. Somatotype was determined following the Heath-Carter method and Body Mass Index (BMI) was used to access the level of nutrition. Descriptive statistics, Kruskal-Wallis H test, Pearson correlation, Spearman correlation and Chi-square test were performed to find out variation, correlation and association of the somatype components with age and nutritional categories. Prior ethical clearance had been obtained. As a result, the trend of undernutrition was gradually increasing with age and found highest among aged people (50–60 years) with an overall prevalence of 49.7%. Eleven different somatotype subgroups were identified. The mean somatotype of the participants was 2.3–3.6-3.9 which indicates mesomorph-ectomorph body type. Kruskal-Wallis H test revealed significant differences among somatotype components in different nutritional categories. Undernutrition was found highest among the mesomorphic ectomorph (62.7%) type. Chi-square test stated significant association between somatotype categories and nutritional statuses (Chi-square = 283.160, p < 0.01). This is the first reporting on the somatotype study among the Sabar community, where the dominant body type was found mesomorph-ectomorph. A highly significant correlation was found between somatotype and BMI. At the same time, this study expressed the need for immediate nutritional intervention.

The differences of nutritional status of 6-9 months old infant given factory-made and homemade complementary foodsBackground: The nutritional status of 6-9 months old babies depend on the amount of nutrition acquired from breastmilk and complementary food. The incorrect feeding of complementary food may contribute to poor nutritional status. Objective: This study aims to illustrate the nutritional status of factory-made and homemade complementary food, and analyze the difference in the nutritional status of infants given factory-made and homemade complementary food.Methods: This is an analytic, observational, and cross-sectional study, conducted in seven villages within the scope of Puskesmas Jatinangor, Jatinangor Sub-district, Sumedang Regency in August-October 2018. The samples were 102 babies 6-9 months old obtained through total sampling. The variables of this study include the type of complementary food, and infant nutritional status with weight for age, length for age, and weight for height index.Results: Complementary food consumption is dominated by factory-made type (69.6%). Macronutrients which are energy and protein and micronutrients which are vitamins from both types of complementary food already fulfill the daily recommended dietary allowances for babies, except for minerals which are calcium, iron, and zinc. Chi-Square test results showed an insignificant difference in the nutritional status of babies (p=0,881 for BW/A; p=0.194 for BH/A; and p=0,599 for BW/BH) based on the type of complementary food given.Conclusions: Nutritional contents of macro and micronutrients from both types of complementary food have fulfilled the recommended dietary allowances for complementary food, except for the minerals calcium, iron, and zinc. There wasn’t a considerable difference in nutritional status between those acquired through factory-made and homemade complementary food.
