Background: The prevalences of severe acute malnutrition, moderate acute malnutrition and low birth weight (LBW) in West Papua Province is higher than the national prevalence. Malaria disease, especially in an infant, is also of concern in this province. Manokwari District is regarded as malaria endemic area due to the high morbidity rate in the entire district.Objective: To determine the incidence of malaria, nutritional status of children and to analyze the relationship between two of them.Method: The methodology that used in this research is cross-sectional design conducted in four health centers in Manokwari with a sample of 100 children aged two to five years. The data were analyzed using Chi-Square analysis and logistic regression analysis.Results: The incidence rate of malaria in Manokwari district is high. This is because the number of an infant that was infected highly and lowly by malaria do not vary much. Results show that 42% children suffering from severe malaria, particularly tropical malaria type, with a frequency of more than two times in six months so that it had a direct effect on appetite and weight. Average nutritional status based on weight/height and height/age is normal while according to weight/age is not normal. Infants with severe and moderate acute malnutrition are not found in this study.Conclusion: The incidence rate of malaria in children under five in the district of Manokwari is high, the nutritional status of children under five in the past are in the normal category and at the time of the study were not normal, this is due at the time of the study many infants experience pain and therefore contributes to the appetite that directly affects body weight of infants. Furthermore, it is known that there is a relationship between the incidence of malaria by the nutritional status of children in the district of Manokwari.

Family strength structures use patterns in the family, people usually assume the most power in the family, giving special rights to get the best part of the food. This is one of the factors triggering the problem of underweight status in children under five in the family. Nutritional status in toddlers can be reflected by the distribution of individual food in a family day. Therefore, it will be more effective if the priority of individual food distribution in the family is the child who is still in the process of growth and development. This study aims to determine the distribution of family food to the nutritional status of children aged 1-5 years in Rammang-Rammang Hamlet, Salenrang Village, Bontoa Sub-district, Maros Regency. This research is an analytical research. Samples were toddlers aged 1-5 years who trained 35 people selected by purposive sampling. Data on family food distribution found through respondents' answers based on existing questionnaires and scoring on each question. Status of nutritional data was collected by weighing based on age of children under five, then calculated using the WHO Antro 2005 computer program. To determine the effect of variables on family food distribution with nutritional status of children under five, it was done using the SPSS program. Data is presented in the form of spread tables and frequencies. The results showed that the level of distribution of family food was quite adequate (77.1%). The mean nutritional status of children under five is generally good (74.3%). The results of statistical tests between variables there was no effect of food distribution on nutritional status of children aged 1-5 years.

 Background: Family conscious nutrition (Kadarzi) is an Indonesia government program that aims to address the nutrition problem. The family expected to be able to independently giving the best nutrition to improve health. Each Kadarzi indicator has an important role to resolve and prevent the occurrence of utrition problem as indicator of vitamin A supplementation is used to resolve vitamin A deficiency.  Nutrition problems can be seen by using nutritional status. Children under five years are age-prone to experiencenutritional problem such as underweight, stunting, and wasting. Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between the application of Kadarzi behavior with the nutritional status of children under five (WAZ, HAZ, and WHZ). Method: The research was an analytic obsevation research, using cross sectional design. The sample consist of 72 toddlers in Salakkembang Village, Kalidawir Subdistrict, Tulungagung Regency. The data were collected by using weight and height measurement, also Kadarzi bahavior questionnaire. The data were analyzed using Fisher Exact test. Result: The results of the study showed that there was a correlation between Kadarzi behavior with nutitional status of toddlers based on WAZ (p=0.010), and HAZ (p=0.000) but not with WHZ (p=0.368). Conclusion: The better apllication of Kadarzi behavior, the better the nutritional status of toddlers WAZ and HAZ. Mothers should apply Kadarzi behavior to prevent toddlers from nutritional problems. ABSTRAK Latar belakang: Keluarga Sadar Gizi (Kadarzi) merupakan program pemerintah Indonesia yang bertujuan mengatasi masalah gizi. Keluarga diharapkan dapat secara mandiri mewujudkan keadaan gizi yang sebaik-baiknya untuk meningkatkan kesehatan. Setiap indikator Kadarzi memiliki peran penting untuk mengatasi dan mencegah terjadinya masalah gizi seperti indikator pemberian suplemen vitamin A digunakan untuk mengatasi kekurangan vitamin A. Masalah gizi dapat dilihat salah satunya dengan menggunakan status gizi. Balita merupakan usia yang rawan mengalami masalah gizi seperti underweight, stunting, dan wasting.Tujuan: Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah menganalisis hubungan antara penerapan perilaku Kadarzi dengan status gizi balita (BB/U, TB/U, dan BB/TB).Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian observasinol analitik, dengan desain penelitian cross sectional. Sampel terdiri dari 72 balita di Desa Salakkembang, Kecamatan Kalidawir, Kabupaten Tulungagung. Pengumpulan data menggunakan penimbangan berat badan, tinggi badan, dan kuesioner perilaku Kadarzi. Data dianalisis menggunakan Fisher Exact test. Hasil: Hasil dari penelitian menunjukkan terhadap hubungan antara perilaku Kadarzi dengan status gizi balita BB/U (p=0,010) dan TB/U (p=0,000) namun tidak dengan BB/TB (p=0,368).Kesimpulan: Semakin baik penerapan perilaku Kadarzi maka semakin baik status gizi balita BB/U dan TB/U. Ibu dan seluruh anggota keluarga seharusnya menerapkan perilaku Kadarzi agar balita terhindar dari masalah gizi.

Background: One of the efforts made in overcoming malnutrition in the toddler age group is by implementing a Recovery Supplementary Feeding program.Objectives: The purpose of this study was to analyze the differences in nutritional status of children based on weight for height before and after the Supplementary Food Recovery and differences in nutritional status of children after Supplementary Food Recovery and when they had not received Supplementary Food Recovery in the Simomulyo Community Health Center work area.Methods: This study was observational study using case-control design. A total of 38 toddlers with history of obtaining Supplemental Feeding Recovery (PMT) Program in the working area of Simomulyo Health Center were randomly selected. Nutritional status of toddlers is obtained using anthropometric methods of body weight and height / body length. Statistically tested using t-test paired with a significance level of <0.05.Results: After not getting Supplemental Feeding Recovery, it was found that 2.6% of children under five severely wasting, 34.2% wasting, and 63.2% had normal nutritional status. There was a decrease in the percentage of infants with normal nutritional status compared to after completing PMT Recovery program from 68.4% to 63.2%. There were no significant differences in nutritional status of children before and after the program (p=0.585). There was no difference between the nutritional status of children under five after the program and when they had not received the program (p=0.430)Conclusions: There was no difference in nutritional status of children (weight-for-height) before and after Supplemental Feeding Recovery Program.ABSTRAK  Latar Belakang: Upaya yang dilakukan dalam mengatasi kekurangan gizi pada kelompok usia balita adalah program Pemberian Makanan Tambahan (PMT) Pemulihan.Tujuan: Penelitian ini dilakukan bertujuan untuk menganalisis adanya perbedaan pada status gizi balita berasarkan BB/TB sebelum dan setelah Pemberian Makanan Tambahan (PMT) Pemulihan serta perbedaan status gizi balita setelah PMT Pemulihan dan saat sudah tidak mendapat PMT Pemulihan di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Simomulyo.Metode: Penelitian ini adalah peneitian observasional dengan desain penelitan cross sectional. Lokasi penelitian adalah di wilayah kerja Puskemas Simomulyo, Surabaya. Sebanyak 38 balita dengan riwayat mendapat PMT Pemulihan dipilih secara acak menggunakan metode simple random sampling. Status gizi balita didapat menggunakan metode antropometri berat badan dan tinggi/panjang badan. Indeks BB/TB digunakan dalam penilaian status gizi dengan alasan sasaran utama PMT Pemulihan adalah balita dengan status gizi kurus.  Uji secara statistik dilakukan menggunakan uji t berpasangan dengan tingkat signifikansi <0,05.Hasil: Setelah 3 bulan mendapat PMT Pemulihan ada peningkatan persentase balita dengan status gizi normal dari 65,8% menjadi 68,4%. Setelah tidak mendapat PMT Pemulihan ada penurunan persentase balita dengan status gizi normal menjadi 63,2%. Tidak ada perbedaan yang bermakna status gizi balita berasarkan BB/TB sebelum dan setelah PMT Pemulihan (p=0,585). Tidak ada perbedaan pada status gizi dapat disebabkan oleh konsumsi PMT yang belum optimal. Begitu juga diketahui tidak ada perbedaan yang bermakana status gizi balita setelah PMT Pemulihan dan saat sudah tidak mendapat PMT Pemulihan (p=0,430).Kesimpulan: Tidak ada perbedaan pada status gizi balita dengan indeks antropometri BB/TB saat sebelum PMT Pemulihan dan setelah PMT Pemulihan.

One of the health problems in Indonesia is the problem of nutritional status of children under five years. Cases of malnutrition are not only a family problem, but also a state problem. The nutritional status of children under five years can be assessed by measuring the human body known as "Anthropometry". To be able to carry out anthropometric examinations and measurements in order to find out the nutritional status of children under five, they can go to public health service places such as the Posyandu. We went to the KENANGA Posyandu located in Wonorejo, Kerasaan sub-district, Simalungun district. The purpose of this study will be to test the model for the classification of nutritional status of children under the WHO-2005 reference standard by utilizing data mining techniques using the Decision Tree method C4.5 Algorithm.

Background: This study aims to describe malnutrition among children under five and to describe the food insecurity status during the current conflict in Yemen. Methods: Data were obtained from a Yemeni nutrition surveillance program (pilot phase) targeting 4142 households with 5276 children under five from two governorates (Ibb and Sana’a). Results: Global acute malnutrition was found in 13.3% of overall screened children, while 4.9% had severe acute malnutrition (SAM) and 8.4% had moderate acute malnutrition. One-fifth of the children under six months of age were acutely malnourished, followed by children under two years at 18.5% based on weight-for-height z scores. Significant associations between malnutrition and other diseases included suspected measles at three times higher rates (4.5%, p < 0.00) among SAM cases than other children. Diarrhea, fever, and cough were significantly higher among the SAM group (p < 0.05). Most households depended on market food purchases in the month preceding this survey (84.7%). Household coping mechanisms to secure daily meals included borrowing food to survive, changing types and quality of food, and decreasing the number of meals per day; some families sent their children to live with relatives. Conclusion: Malnutrition is a serious public health problem. The humanitarian community needs to adopt alternative strategies to improve food security and the nutrition status in Yemen.

Abstract Objectives Malnutrition is a major public health challenge in developing countries and as such the nutritional status of children serve as an indicator to rate the overall well-being of a society. In this study, we assessed the nutritional status of under-five children attending Dalhatu Araf Specialist Hospital, Lafia, Nigeria. Methods After ethical clearance, 165 under five children were randomly recruited into the study. The socio-demographic and nutritional information of the children and mother were obtained using structured questionnaires. Anthropometric assessment was done on each child and blood samples analyzed using standard biochemical techniques. The data obtained were statistically analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20. Results Out of the 165 children recruited for this study, 51.5% were males. 41.2% of the children showed prevalence of Global Malnutrition, 15.8% and 25.5% indicated moderate acute malnutrition (MAM) and Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) respectively. 66.1% of the children had Mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) measures in the normal range of 12.5–14.6 cm. There is a significant relationship between nutritional knowledge of the mother, socioeconomic status, child feeding practices, and the nutritional status of their children (P &lt; 0.05). The biochemical parameters studied reported that average PCV (33.32 ± 4.49) and total protein (34.53 ± 13.26 g/L) were lower than the normal range, glucose (4.52 ± 0.97 mmol/L) and Calcium (2.14 ± 0.25 mmol/L) were within the normal range and Albumin (64.16 ± 16.87 g/L) was above the normal range. Conclusions This study has successfully revealed the nutritional status of under five years children in Nasarawa State, Nigeria. Our findings have critical implications for intervention initiatives among children in Nigeria. Funding Sources Self funded.
