Stunting is a condition of failure to thrive in children under five due to chronic malnutrition. One cause of stunting is poor parenting patterns such as feeding in the first 2 years after birth. Exclusive breastfeeding is the best nutrition a baby receives in the first 6 months of life. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of exclusive breastfeeding with the decrease of stunting in children aged 6-23 months in Sosor Lontung Village, Siempat Nempu District, Dairi Regency.  This study used a cross-sectional study design. The sample of this research was children aged 6-23 months as many as 39 people. Data collection was carried out by interview and measurement of children's length / height. Univariate and bivariate data analysis used Chi Square test with ƿ-value <0.05. Based on the bivariate analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between exclusive breastfeeding and the incidence of stunting with ƿ-value 0.037. The results showed the percentage of stunting in children aged 6-23 months was greater in children who were not given exclusive breastfeeding (50%) than those who received exclusive breastfeeding (17.65%). The results of bivariate analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between exclusive breastfeeding and the incidence of stunting with a value-value of 0.037. That is, exclusive breastfeeding can reduce the risk of stunting is getting smaller. It is hoped that all babies will receive exclusive breastfeeding so that the baby can grow optimally.

The aim of the study is to determine the bacterial susceptibility-resistance levels of uropathogens depending on expression of different types of plasmid-mediated resistance genes. Methods. A cross-sectional study of105 patients with chronic pyelonephritis was carried. Screening for the presence of plasmid-mediated genes was performed by polymerase chain reaction. The antimicrobial susceptibility of isolates was determined by the Kirby Bauer disk diffusion method on Mueller–Hinton agar-containing plates. The size of zone around each antimicrobial disk was interpreted as sensitive, intermediate or resistant. Results. We demonstrated in vitro significant relationship of the resistance to aminopenicillins, cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones with an appearance of plasmid-mediated extended spectrum p-lactamases (ESBLs) types blaCTX-M, blaTEM, blaSHV and fluoroquinolones resistant genes (PMQR), including QnrA, AAC (6') - Ib-cr, QepA) in bacterial uropathogens. We also demonstrated in vitro significant relationship of the resistance to aminoglycosides with an appearance of plasmid-mediated genes blaCTX-M, QnrA and QepA. Conclusion. Were established in vitro significant relationships of the resistance to antimicrobials with an appearance of plasmid-mediated resistance genes in uropathogens. Were determined the most effective antibiotics against ESBL and PMQR producers. We have established the algorithm of diagnostic of plasmid-mediated resistance genes in uropathogens, isolated from patients with chronic pyelonephritis.
