School-age children are at high risk of anaemia, because of their low haemoglobin levels due to lack of iron intake. Anaemia causes pain and death, inhibits brain development, motor, mental, intelligence and physical growth, decreased physical abilities, pale faces which will reduce enthusiasm and learning achievement of school children. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of giving lemuru fish sausage made from durian seeds on protein intake and haemoglobin levels in children with anaemia. This type of research is a quasi-experimental, namely the pre-test design and post-test experiment. Lemuru fish sausage made from durian seeds was given every day for 30 days to 30 school-age children in SD Negeri Jati Sari Lubuk pakam City, Deli Serdang Residence. Measurement of Haemoglobin and food consumption (energy, protein, vitamin C and iron) was carried out before and after the intervention. The results showed that most of the intake of energy, vitamin C and iron in school children was in the <100% category. The mean Haemoglobin before the intervention was 10.9 g / dl; after the intervention, the mean Haemoglobin was 12.1 g / dl. The mean increase in hemoglobin 1.2 g / dl was statistically significant (p-value = 0.000). It has been recommended to increase the time to intervene and use iron status indicators in other studies.

Background: School age is the active growing phase of childhood. It is a dynamic period of physical growth as well as of mental development of the child. Research indicates that health problems due to miserable nutritional status in primary school-age children are among the most common causes of low school enrolment, high absenteeism, early dropout and unsatisfactory classroom performance.Objective: The objective of this study was “to assess the nutritional status among rural school children”, in terms of the BMI, stunting and wasting among the children.Materials and methods: A descriptive type of cross-sectional study was conducted among the school children of two secondary schools located in Savar upazilla during January-March 2013. From these selected schools, a total number of 340 students aged 5-14 yrs were enrolled in the study. First face to face interview was conducted with available students with the help of purposive sampling technique. Then anthropometric measurement such as Age (in years), Heights (in cms), and Weight (in kgs) of each child were taken to assess their nutritional status.Results: The mean height of the children was (136.9; SD±8.57cm) not comparable with CDC 2000 (Centres for Disease Control and Prevention) standard. Among 340 students, 81.8% of the students were found to be under nourished. Underweight, stunting and wasting were present in 38.8%, 55.9%, and 25.9% of school children respectively. Underweight was associated with lower household wealth (p < .005). The mean weight (27.18 Kg; SD± 6.78 Kg) was lower than CDC 2000 standards. Among underweight children girls (50.3%) were found to be higher than boys (28.73%). The students were more stunted (55.9%) than wasted (25.9%). Only 10.29% of the students were found to be both wasted and stunted.Conclusion: The study revealed that high percentage of rural school children was malnourished. The study result also revealed the urgent need for initiation of school health programme with specific emphasis on, improvement of nutritional status, personal hygiene and prevention of diseases with the collaboration of governmental and non-governmental institutions.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjpp.v30i1.20780 Bangladesh J Physiol Pharmacol 2014; 30(1):6-10

Surgery requires a preoperative nursing action which is the initial stage of operative nursing, which starts from the time the patient is admitted into the patient's reception room and ends when the patient is transferred to the operating table for surgery. Psychological and physiological reactions to surgical procedures and anesthetic processes that allow for an anxiety response, especially in pre-school-aged children. Preschoolers who are sick and have to be hospitalized can experience unpleasant experiences and cause anxiety. They tend to refuse treatment and treatment that is being undertaken, causing delays to some actions including surgery. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of cartoon videos on reducing preoperative anxiety levels in pre-school age children. This research method uses quasi-experimental with a pre and post-test approach with out control. The sampling technique used purposive sampling with a sample of 20 children who were divided into 2 groups. This research instrument uses the HARS anxiety questionnaire. Data analysis using paired t-test. The results showed that the decrease in preoperative anxiety levels in pre-school children after being given a cartoon video intervention by 4.20, after being given an animated video intervention by 4.70. The results of the study also obtained p value> 0,000, which means the influence of cartoon videos and animated videos on reducing preoperative anxiety levels in pre-school age children. Suggestions that researchers can give are nurses can provide animation video interventions to minimize preoperative anxiety in pre-school age children.

ABSTRACT Background The requirement for dietary tryptophan in school-age children has never been empirically derived. Objective The objective of our study was to determine the tryptophan requirement of school-age children using the indicator amino acid oxidation technique. Methods Volunteer healthy school-age children, between 8 and 12 y, were enrolled and the oxidation of l-[13C]-phenylalanine to 13CO2 measured in response to graded intakes of dietary tryptophan. Seven children (3 boys, 4 girls) participated in the study and received randomly assigned tryptophan intakes ranging from 0.5 to 9.75 mg.kg-1.d-1 for a total of 36 studies. The diets provided energy at 1.5 times each subject's resting energy expenditure and were isocaloric. Protein was provided as an amino acid mixture on the basis of the egg protein pattern, and phenylalanine and tyrosine were maintained constant across the protein intake concentrations at 25 and 40 mg.kg−1.d−1. All subjects were adapted for 2 d before the study day to a protein intake of 1.5 g.kg−1.d−1. The mean tryptophan requirement was determined by applying a mixed-effect change-point regression analysis to F13CO2 (label tracer oxidation in 13CO2 breath) which identified a breakpoint in the F13CO2 in response to graded amounts of tryptophan. Results The mean [estimated average requirement (EAR)] and upper 95% CI, (approximating the RDA) of tryptophan requirements were estimated to be 4.7 and 6.1 mg.kg−1.d−1, respectively. Conclusion Our results are similar to the current recommended EAR and RDA of 5 and 6 mg.kg−1.d−1 for healthy growing children based on the factorial calculation. Clinical Trials Registration No. NCT02018588.

Most of the respondents had monthly family income Tk 10000-30000 (43%).44% had low birth weight and about 89% of them were vaccinated following a regular schedule The mean weight of childrenwas 22.63 ±4.65 kg and height were 120.92 ± 6.54cm. According to BM1 classification, there were 58% normal, 35% undernourished and 7 % obese/overweight. The health and nutrition status of children is one of the crucial elements in the assessment of the quality of life of the people To prevent nutritional problems and their consequences early diagnosis is necessary.
