BACKGROUND: Stunting remains a nutritional problem in children in Indonesia and some other developing countries. It has become a public health problem that must be taken seriously and continuously. Although there was an improvement in 2018, the incidence of stunting in Indonesia is still quite high (36.4%), compared to other Southeast Asian countries such as Malaysia (20%) and Thailand (10.5%). In the world, Indonesia occupies the 17th position of 117 countries for the stunting incidence. AIM: This study aims to describe the risk factors of stunting in children under five in developing countries. METHODS: This research is a scoping review. The sources were drawn from multiple databases such as Ebsco, PubMed, ProQuest, and Science Direct with the keyword “stunting” AND “risk factors” AND “developing countries.” Inclusion criteria include the research must be related to the risk factors of stunting, should be conducted in developing countries, should be full texted in English, and published in 2015–2019. RESULTS: The search of databases found 3605 articles, with the details of 10 articles from Ebsco, 45 articles from PubMed, 20 articles from ProQuest, and 3530 articles from Science Direct. According to all the databases, only 9 articles were reviewed that met the inclusion criteria of this study. CONCLUSION: Parent factors, toddler factors, and environmental factors are risk factors of stunting in children under five.

AbstractObjectiveDysentery represents 10% of all causes of acute diarrhea in the world and recognizing the implied proximal and distal social factors at different levels would impact on every related outcome. Our purpose is to identify mother, household and country characteristics that favor the presence of dysentery in children under 5 years old.MethodsWe conducted a multilevel analysis of data from phase V of the Demographic and Health Survey and the World Bank, which included 38,762 children from 33 countries.ResultsPrevalence of dysentery was 14.74%. GDP per-capita was negative associated (OR= 0.75; 95% CI 0.71-0.78) and Gini index was positive associated (OR= 1.23; 95% CI 1.19-1.28). Additionally, child age (OR= 0.99; 95% CI 0.99-1.00), mother age (OR= 1.01; 95% CI 1.00-1.01), employed mother (OR= 1.11; 95% CI 1.02-1.20), and number of household members (OR= 1.02; 95% CI 1.01-1.03) have significant positive associations with the presence of dysentery, while complete immunization schedule (OR= 0.88; 95% CI 0.81-0.96), duration of breastfeeding (OR= 0.81; 95% CI 0.75-0.89), and type of residence (OR= 0.87; 95% CI 0.79-0.97) have significant negative associations with having the illness. Finally, each of the categories of wealth index showed a significant association with dysentery (p-value < 0.001).ConclusionsLower per capita GDP and higher Gini coefficient are associated with the development of dysentery, regardless of characteristics of children, their mother, and household. Future and present public health programs should address these issues in order to impact on the occurrence of this illness.Author summaryDysentery represents 10% of all causes of acute diarrheal disease. Diarrhea is the fifth cause of worldwide death in children under five years old. It is particularly important to assess and prevent this condition because the early years of life are critical since it is the period when the brain develops most rapidly and has a high capacity for change. Complications associated with dysentery such as malnutrition and convulsive episodes could have a negative effect in this aspect.Our purpose is to identify the country proximal and distal socioeconomic factors that favor the presence of dysentery in children under five years old from low and middle-income developing countries in order to impact on the occurrence of this illness and its related outcomes. Studying associated factors with developing dysentery during an episode of acute diarrhea could be the base upon which we can diminish mortality from this illness through national policies to impact on national, community and household aspects.

Children are the nation's assets in the future. It can be imagined, how would the condition of Indonesia's human resources be in the future if many Indonesian children are currently suffering from stunting. The incidence of short children or commonly known as stunting is one of the nutritional problems experienced by toddlers in the world today. In 2017 22.2% or around 150.8 million children under five in the world were stunted. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of the mentoring menu model on the growth and development of stunting children in Cinta Raja Village, East Langsa District. This type of research used in this research is quasi-experimental research (quasi experiment) with a pretest posttest design non equivalent control group design. In this study the researchers compared the two research groups with the number of respondents 34 children aged 24-60 months. There is a significant effect of menu assistance on the increase in the height of stunting of children under five in Cinta Raja Village, Langsa Timur District, Langsa City. there is a correlation between the increase in height before being given menu assistance (pretest) and after being given menu assistance (post test). It can be concluded that the increase in Height in the stunting and normal under-five group is significant. It is hoped that families who have children under five are able to provide a balanced nutrition family diet as long as the child is in a period of growth and development so as to prevent stunting.

Introduction: Diarrhea is a leading cause of mortality in children in developing countries and the condition is worse in slums. In order to provide effective preventive and management strategies, it is important to identify factors associated with the disease. This study was carried out to investigate the risk factors of diarrhea in  children under five years of age in urban slums.   Methods: Parents of all children under five years from the urban slums of Tansen municipality, Palpa, Nepal were interviewed using a standardized pretested questionnaire and proforma. Parental variables, environmental factors, and presence of diarrhea in those children in past three months were collected by trained enumerators and the data were analyzed with statistical software SPSS-10.   Results: A total of 450 under five years children were enrolled in the study. There were 216 (48%) male and 234 (52%) female children with F:M ratio of 1.08:1. Occurrence of diarrhea was lower if the children were breast-fed for more than six months, well-nourished, used fountain water for drinking, or used boiled or treated water. Similarly, diarrhea prevalence was lower if father had a regular job, daily income in the family was more than one US dollar, there was a toilet in the house, practice of hand washing was followed before feeding or preparing food, or there was no child suffering from diarrhea in the neighborhood.   Conclusion: There are a few variables that are significantly related to diarrhea in children under five years of age. In order to decrease the diarrheal episodes in children in the slums of the developing countries, priority could be given in the improvement of those variables.
