Background. Giardia lamblia is a protozoan that causes an intestinal infection called giardiasis. This infection can cause the process of absorption of nutrients is not optimal. Giardiasis can result in a decrease in nutritional status. The aim of study is to determain the relationship between giardiasis and nutritional status at the age of elementary school children. Method. This is cross-sectional study of 114 students at SD INPRES 104222 and 101828 in Sei Glugur Village in Pancur Batu District. Primary data collection was carried out by anthropometric examination and examination of stool samples using the formol ether concentration technique at the Parasitology Laboratory of the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Sumatra Utara. Results. From 114 children who met the inclusion criteria, the incidence of Giardia lamblia infection was 7%. Based on the weight  for height index, 8 (7%) people had poor nutritional status, 61 (53.5%) people with underweight nutritional status 27 (23.7%) people with moderate nutrition and 12 (10,5%) people with good nutrition. Overweight by 1 (0.9%) person and obese 5 (4.4%) people. There is no correlation between giardiasis infection with weight for height (p>0.05). Conclusion. The incidence of Giardia lamblia infection was low and there was no correlation between giardiasis with nutritional status in primary school-age children.

Tumbuh kembangnya anak usia sekolah yang optimal tergantung pemberian zat gizi dengan kualitas dan kuantitas yang baik dan benar. Salah satu upaya kesehatan tersebut adalah dengan perbaikan gizi anak usia sekolah dasar. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menganalisis hubungan pola konsumsi dan konseling gizi terhadap kejadian obesitas. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah observasional dengan pendekatan cross sectional study. Populasi dan sampel penelitian ini adalah siswa dengan pengambilan sampel secara exhaustic sampling dengan jumlah 146 sampel. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Sekolah Dasar Islam Terpadu Rama Kota Makassar. Hasil penelitian diperoleh bahwa pola konsumsi berhubungan dengan kejadian obesitas dengan nilai p (0,00) < 0,05, konseling gizi berhubungan dengan kejadian obesitas dengan nilai p (0,01) < 0,05. Kesimpulan diperoleh bahwa ada hubungan pola konsumsi dan konseling gizi terhadap kejadian obesitas. Bagi siswa yang sudah terlanjur menderita obesitas agar menjaga pola makan dan aktivitas fisik secara teratur dan ketat serta berkonsultasi ke ahli gizi. Abstract The optimal growth of school-age children depends on providing nutrients with good and correct quality and quantity. One of the health efforts is to improve nutrition of elementary school age children. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship of consumption patterns and nutrition counseling to the incidence of obesity. The type of research used was observational with a cross sectional study approach. The population and sample of this study were students with exhaustic sampling with 146 samples. This research was conducted at the Rama Integrated Islamic Primary School in Makassar City. The results showed that consumption patterns associated with the incidence of obesity with a value of p (0.00) <0.05, nutritionlcounseling was associated with the incidence of obesity with a value of p (0.01) <0.05. The conclusion is that there is a relationship between consumption patterns and nutritional counseling on the incidence of obesity. For students who have already suffered from obesity in order to maintain regular and strict diet and physical activity and consult a nutritionist.

Associated Risk Factors

Mass drug administration (MDA) to the most risky population including school-age children (SAC) is the central strategy to control soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infection. The present study was aimed at estimating the prevalence of STHs reinfection three months posttreatment and associated risk factors among SAC in Chencha district. A cross-sectional study design was employed from April 20 to May 5, 2015, to enroll 408 SAC. Structured questionnaire and Kato-Katz thick smear technique were used to interview parents or guardians and quantify the number of eggs per gram of stool. Pearson chi-square and logistic regression were used to assess the association between predictor variable and STH reinfection. The prevalence of STHs within three months of mass chemotherapy among SAC was 36.8% which is 93.4% of the prevalence (39.4%) before treatment. The estimated prevalence of reinfection (95%CI) forAscaris lumbricoides,Trichuris trichiura, and hookworms was 23.8% (21.1–28.2), 16.2% (12.7–20.1), and 1.0% (0.3–2.5), respectively. Children of merchant fathers were more likely to be reinfected by STHs in Chencha district. In conclusion, there is rapid reinfection after mass chemotherapy among SAC in Chencha district. Further studies should be carried out to generate cost efficient methods that can supplement mass drug administration to accelerate the control of STHs.
