ABSTRACT Background: In both developed and developing countries, childhood obesity has reached epidemic levels. Obesity is associated with adverse health outcomes in children, including asthma and sleep apnea. The studies showed that breastfeeding is a protective factor of obesity in children. This study aimed to determine exclusive breastfeeding and prevention of obesity in children under five. Subjects and Method: This was a meta-analysis and systematic review conducted by search online published articles toward exclusive breastfeeding and obesity in children under five.Original studies published from 2003 to 2016 were obtained from PubMed, Science Direct, Springer Link, and Google Scholar databases. Keywords used “Children Under Five” AND “Breast Feeding” AND “non Breast Feeding” OR “Formula milk” OR “Infant Formula” AND “Obesity” OR “Body Mass Index”. The inclusion criteria were full text, in English language, using observational or cohort study design, and reporting adjusted odds ratio. The selected articles were analyzed using PRISMA guideline and Revman 5.3. Results: 6 studies from California, Massachusetts, China, German, Swedish, and Dutch, reported that exclusive breastfeeding was a protective factor of obesity in children under five (aOR= 0.95; 95% CI= 0.86 to 1.06; p= 0.360) with (I²= 82%, p= 0.001). Conclusion: Exclusive breastfeeding is a protective factor of obesity in children under five Keywords: obesity, exclusive breastfeeding, meta-analysis Correspondence: Elma Yopiana.

ABSTRACT Background: Probiotics have been widely studied in a variety of gastrointestinal diseases. There is high-quality evidence that probiotics are effective for acute infectious diarrhea. This study aimed to examine the relative efficacy of probiotics compared with standard therapy for diarrhea treatment in children under five using meta-analysis. Subjects and Method: A meta-analysis was carried out using systematic PRISMA guidelines. The review process begins with searching for articles published between 2009 and 2019 from PubMed, Clinical Key, ScienceDirect, and Scopus databases. This study obtained four articles that meet the criteria of the randomized controlled trial (RCT), the study subjects were toddlers and conducted in developing countries. A sample of 995 children was divided into two groups, 518 children received probiotics (intervention) and 477 children received standard therapy (control). The data were analyzed by Review Manager (RevMan) software 5.3 to assess Standardized Mean Difference (SMD). Results: Probiotics administration reduced duration of acute diarrhea in children under five than standard therapy, with pooled estimate= 0.30 (SMD= -0.30; 95% CI= – 0.56 to -0.03). Conclusion: Probiotics administration combined with standard therapy is effective to reduce the duration of acute diarrhea in children under five in developing countries.
