HUBUNGAN ASUPAN ZAT BESI, PROTEIN, VITAMIN C DAN POLA MENSTRUASI DENGAN KADAR HEMOGLOBIN PADA REMAJA PUTRI DI SMAN 1 MANYAR GRESIK [Correlation Between Intake of Iron, Protein, Vitamin C and Menstruation Pattern with Haemoglobin Concentration among Adolescent Girl in Senior High School 1 Manyar Gresik]

One of nutrition problem that needs to get high attention is anemia. Anemia is a condition that develops when healthy red blood cells below normal. Inadequate intake of nutrient, menstruation, infectious diseases, and lack of knowledge can caused anemia. Monthly menstruation and growth period drive adolescent girls pronen to anemia. The purpose of this study was to analyze correlation between intake of iron, protein, vitamin C and menstruation patterns with anemia among adolescent girls. This study used cross sectional design. Population of this study was adolescent student grade X and XI at SMAN 1 Manyar Gresik. Sixty two students were selected using proportional random sampling . Data were collected with semi quantitative food frequency questionnaire, structured questionnaire, and digital haemoglobinmeter. Data were analyzed using Spearman correlation test and Chi-square test. Results showed intake of iron (r=0.635; p=0.000), protein (r=0.663; p=0.000), and vitamin C (r=0.780; p=0.000) was correlated with haemoglobin concentration similiar with menstruation pattern which also had signifi cant correlation with anemia (p=0.002). Lower intake of iron, protein and vitamin C, caused lower haemoglobin concentration. Thus, anemia incidence will be higher. Adolescent girl are expected to increase food consumption of food source of iron and consume iron supplement routinely to replace iron that lost during menstruation.

The Relationship

Anemia is one of the many problems that occur in pregnant women in developing countries. First trimester pregnant women often experience nausea and vomiting that can affect the pattern of eating that is received. The purpose of this study was to determine whether nutritional intake and nausea and vomiting disorders in first trimester pregnant women were associated with anemia. The sample of this study was all first trimester pregnant women, selected by quota sampling technique. The research design used in this study was cross sectional, which aims to examine the correlation between nutrient intake (iron, protein, and vitamin C) and nausea and vomiting disorders with anemia. The instrument used to determine the intake of iron, protein, vitamin C was food records that were filled by respondents for 3 days. To test the hypothesis of the relationship used the chi square test and Fisher's exact test. From the results of the analysis of the relationship between iron intake, Vitamin C and nausea and vomiting with anemia, p-value = 0.003, p-value = 0.001 and p-value 0.001, it can be concluded that there is a relationship between iron intake, vitamin C and vomiting nausea with the incidence of anemia in first trimester pregnant women (first). While the results of the analysis of the relationship of protein intake with anemia obtained p-value = 0.806, it can be concluded that there is no relationship between protein intake and the incidence of anemia in first trimester pregnant women (first). The mean intake of iron, protein, and vitamin C in first trimester pregnant women both in the anemic and non-anemic groups had a daily intake that was still far from the nutritional adequacy standard set by the government that the RDA of iron was 26 g / dL / day Protein was 76 mg / day and Vit C is 70-85 mg / day. Keywords: food intake; nausea and vomiting; anemia ABSTRAK Anemia merupakan salah satu masalah yang banyak terjadi pada ibu hamil di negara berkembang. Ibu hamil trimester I sering mengalami gangguan mual muntah yang dapat berpengaruh pada pola ragam makan yang diterima. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengetahui apakah asupan nutrisi dan gangguan mual muntah pada ibu hamil trimester I berhubungan dengan kejadian anemia. Sampel penelitian ini adalah seluruh ibu hamil trimester I diambil dengan teknik Non Probability sampling yaitu Sampling Kuota. Desain penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah epidemiologi analitik observasional dengan desain cross sectional, yang bertujuan menguji hipotesi dalam mencari korelasi asupan nutrisi (zat besi, protein, dan vitamin C) dan gangguan mual muntah dengan kejadian anemia. Instrumen yang digunakan untuk mengetahui kecukupan asupan zat besi, protein,vitamin C adalah food records yang di isi oleh responden selama 3 hari. Untuk melihat hubungan karakteristik dengan variabel dependen digunakan uji chi square dengan alternative uji exact fisher. Dari hasil analisis hubungan antara asupan zat besi, Vitamin C dan mual muntah dengan anemia didapatkan nilai p-value= 0,003, p-value = 0,001 dan p-value 0,001 maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa ada hubungan antara asupan Zat Besi, Vitamin C dan Mual Muntah dengan kejadian Anemia pada ibu hamil trimester 1 (pertama). Sedangkan hasil analisis hubungan asupan protein dengan anemia didaparkan p-value= 0,806 maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa tidak ada hubungan antara asupan protein dengan kejadian anemia pada ibu hamil trimester 1 (pertama). Rerata asupan zat besi, protein, dan vitamin C pada ibu hamil trimester I baik pada kelompok anemia maupun tidak anemia memiliki jumlah asupan harian yang masih jauh dari standar kecukupan gizi yang ditetapkan oleh pemerintah bahwa AKG zat besi adalah 26 g/dL/hari Protein adalah 76 mg/hari dan Vit C adalah 70-85 mg/hari.

Prevalence Of Anemia

Background: The present study was planned to assess the prevalence of anemia and study its socio-demographic correlates among adolescents’ girls of 10-19 years in Bhopal city (M.P).Methods: The study was conducted as a community based cross-sectional study on 640 adolescent girls residing in selected ward and willing to participate in the study. Detailed history as mentioned in questionnaire was obtained. Assessment of the anemia status was carried out using Hemoglobin Color Scale (HCS). Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics chi square test were used for the inferential statistics. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results: Prevalence of anemia among adolescent girls was 72.8%. Anemia was found to be highly significantly associated with education and occupation of parent’s, socio economic status and BMI (p<0.05). Also, anemia was significantly associated with birth order, amount and days of menstrual blood flow (p<0.05)Conclusions: Anemia is highly prevalent in adolescent girls. Evidence suggests that there is need to emphasize on corrective measures for anemia in adolescent girls of 10-19 years before they enter adolescence so as to compensate the additional requirement for growth and development during puberty and combat the extra losses during menstruation.

Background Dysmenorrhea is a common gynecological symptom reported in adolescent girls. Prevalence of the condition has been reported to be 45 - 75%. Absenteeism from work and school as a result of dysmenorrhea is common (13 - 51% of women have been absent at least once, and 5 - 14% are often absent due to the severity of symptoms).Objective To compare school performance in pubertal adolescent girls with and without dysmenorrhea.Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted in June 2010 in adolescent females aged 12 - 18 years from the Musthafawiyah School, Mandailing Natal district, North Sumatera. Adolescent females with and without dysmenorrhea were recruited for this study. All participants completed questionnaires including age of menarche, length of menstrual cycle, length of bleeding, number of sanitary napkins used daily and school absences. School reports from two consecutive semesters in one year were used to evaluate subjects’ academic performance. An academic score of higher than 7.5 was considered good performance while scores of less than 7.5 were considered poor. We used the chi-square test to analyze differences in school performance between girls with and without dysmenorrhea.Results One hundred and sixteen participants were divided into 2 groups, those with and without dysmenorrhea, of 58 subjects each. We found no significant difference in school performance between the two groups, P=0.176 (95% CI -0.009 to -0.048 and P=0.08 (95%CI -0.052 to 0.024).Conclusion There was no significant difference in school performance of girls with and without dysmenorrhea.
