Abstract Despite the process of nutritional transition in Brazil, in some places, such as the Amazon region, stunting is still an important public health problem. We identified the prevalence and factors associated with stunting in children under five years old residing in the urban area of Assis Brasil. A survey was conducted in which a questionnaire on socioeconomic, maternal and children’s conditions was applied, and height or length was measured. The children with height for age index below -2 Z-scores were considered stunted, according to the criteria by the World Health Organization. Four hundred and twenty-eight children were evaluated. Of these, 62 were stunted. Factors associated with stunting, according to adjusted models, were: the presence of open sewer, the wealth index for households, the receipt of governmental financial aid and the mother’s height, age and education. Therefore, it was observed that family and the mother’s characteristics as well as environmental and socioeconomic factors were closely related to the occurrence of stunting in the population studied, and such nutritional disturbance is still a health problem in the Brazilian Amazon.

Berdasarkan data situasi dan analisis gizi di Indonesia pada tahun 2017, status gizi balita diukur dengan indeks tinggi badan per umur (TB/U). Provinsi dengan persentasebalita pendek dan sangat pendek terbesar adalah Kalimantan Barat (32,5%) dan terendah adalah Sumatera Selatan (14,2%). Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi tumbuh kembang anak usia 4-6 tahun di desa kuala 2 wilayah kerja Puskesmas Sungai Durian. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian observasional analitik dengan desain cross sectional. Populasi dalam penelitian ini berjumlah 242 orang. Sampel dalam penelitian ini berjumlah 69 orang anak usia 4-6 tahun, diambil menggunakan random sampling serta menggunakan uji statistik chi-square. Hasil penelitian menunjukan faktor yang berhubungan dengan pertumbuhan anak berdasarkan indikator TB/U, yaitu riwayat ASI eksklusif (p=0,004) berat badan lahir rendah (BBLR) (p=0,003), imunisasi dasar (p=0,000), penyakit infeksi (p=0,000). Sedangkan faktor yang tidak berhubungan dengan pertumbuhan anak berdasarkan indikator TB/U yaitu usia saat hamil (p=0,103). Serta terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara pertumbuhan anak berdasarkan indikator TB/U dengan perkembangan anak (p=0,000).Saran kepada Puskesmas Sungai Durian untuk melakukan kegiatan sosialisasi di masyarakat serta membuat program khususnya tentang pentingnya deteksi dini gangguan tumbuh kembang anak, sehingga diharapkan dapat mengatasi gangguan tumbuh kembang anak di wilayah kerja puskesmas.   According to the Indonesian ministry of health, 2017 the nutritional status of children under five as measured by the height per age index, the province with the largest proportion of short and very short children under five is West Kalimantan (32.5% ) and the lowest was South Sumatra (14.2%). The purpose of this study was to determine the factors that influence the growth and development of children aged 4-6 years in Kuala Village 2, the working area of Sungai Durian Health Center. This study was an observational analytic study with a cross sectional design. The population in this study was probably 242 people. The sample in this study may be 69 children aged 4-6 years, taken using random sampling and using chi-square test statistics. The results showed the factors associated with growth based on the indicator of height / age, namely a history of exclusive breastfeeding (p = 0.004), low birth weight (LBW) (p=0.003), basic immunization (p=0.000), infectious diseases (p = 0.000). Meanwhile, the factor that was not related to children's growth based on the indicator of height / age was the age at pregnancy (p = 0.103). As well as the significant relationship variable between children's growth based on the indicator of height / age with child development (p=0.000) It is suggested to Sungai Durian Public Health Center to carry out socialization activities in the community and create a program specifically on the importance of early detection of child developmental disorders, so that it is hoped that it can overcome child development disorders in the working area of the puskesmas.

Background:  Anemia is a severe public health problem affecting more than half of children under five years of age in low-, middle- and high-income countries. We aimed to determine the prevalence and factors associated with anemia among children under five years of age in northern Tanzania. Methods: This was a community-based cross-sectional study conducted in Rombo district, Kilimanjaro region, northern Tanzania in April 2016. Multistage sampling technique was used to select a total of 602 consenting mothers and their children aged 6-59 months and interviewed using a questionnaire. Data were analyzed using Stata version 15.1. We used generalized linear models (binomial family and logit link function) with robust variance estimator to determine factors associated with anemia. Results: Prevalence of anemia was 37.9%, and it was significantly higher among children aged 6-23 months (48.3%) compared to those aged 24-59 months (28.5%). There were no significant differences in anemia prevalence by sex of the child. Adjusted for other factors, children aged 6-23 months had over two times higher odds of being anemic (OR=2.44, 95% CI 1.71, 3.49, p<0.001) compared to those aged 24-59 months. No significant association was found between maternal and nutritional characteristics with anemia among children in this study. Conclusion: Prevalence of anemia was lower than the national and regional prevalence but it still constitutes a significant public health problem, especially among children aged 6-23 months. Interventions such as iron supplementation, food fortification and dietary diversification and management of childhood illnesses in this setting should be targeted towards mothers and children less than two years.

Community empowerment is an effort to give empowerment or strengthening to the community to find new alternatives to be a better community. Serang Regency is one of the districts that is locus of stunting. The stunting rate in Serang Regency in 2019 is still quite high, 32%. The four districts in Serang are included in the ten districts which are the locus of stunting, namely Serang, Lebak, Pandegelang and Tangerang districts. The problem found in Baros village is that the growth of children under five is not optimal by the mother and there has never been any training on child growth. Based on this, the service team from the Faculty of Health Sciences at UPN Veteran Jakarta conducted community service in the form of health education on stunting and child growth training with the aim of fostering awareness, willingness, and the ability of mothers to prevent and protect children from stunting. The method of implementing this community service is carried out in several stages, namely: area potential survey, dialogue program activities through FGDs, health promotion, child growth training, and monitoring evaluation. 30 mothers were participating in health promotion and child growth training. The results of this activity obtained data that mothers who have good knowledge of 83.3% and sufficient knowledge of 26.7% and skills of mothers in the environment of child growth 46.7% have good skills and 53.3% of sufficient skills. Continuous efforts are needed to increase children's growth independently so that the incidence of stunting can be detected early. ABSTRAK:Pemberdayaan masyarakat adalah upaya memberikan daya (empowerment) atau penguatan (strengthening) kepada masyarakat untuk menemukan alternatif-alternatif baru dalam pembangunan masyarakat sehingga terwujud kehidupan masyarakat yang lebih baik. Kabupaten serang adalah salah satu kabupaten yang menjadi lokus stunting. Angka stunting di Kabupaten Serang pada tahun 2019 masih cukup tinggi yaitu 32%. Empat kabupaten di Serang masuk dalam sepuluh kabupaten di seluruh Indonesia yang menjadi lokus stunting yaitu kabupaten Serang, Lebak, Pandegelang dan Tangerang. Hasil observasi yang dilakukan diketahui bahwa permasalahan di desa Baros adalah belum optimalnya pemantauan pertumbuhan balita secara mandiri oleh ibu dan belum pernah dilakukan pelatihan pemantauan pertumbuhan anak. Berdasarkan hal tersebut maka tim pengabdi dari Fakultas Ilmu Kesehatan UPN Veteran Jakarta melakukan pengabdian kepada masyarakat berupa pendidikan kesehatan tentang stunting dan pelatihan pemantauan pertumbuhan anak dengan tujuan untuk menumbuhkan kesadaran, kemauan, dan kemampuan ibu dalam mengenali, mencegah dan melindungi anak dari penyakit stunting. Metode pelaksanaan pengabdian masyarakat ini dilakukan melalui beberapa tahap yaitu: Survei potensi wilayah, dialog program kegiatan melalui FGD, promosi kesehatan, pelatihan pemantauan pertumbuhan anak, dan monitoring evaluasi. Kegiatan promosi kesehatan dan pelatihan pemantauan pertumbuhan anak diikuti oleh 30 ibu balita. Hasil dari kegiatan ini diperoleh data bahwa ibu yang memiliki pengetahuan baik 83% dan pengetahuan cukup 27% dan keterampilan ibu dalam pemantauan pertumbuhan anak 47% berketerampilan baik dan 53% keterampilan cukup. Diperlukan upaya berkelanjutan berupa pendampingan ibu balita untuk tetap meningkatan keterampilan pemantauan pertumbuhan anak secara mandiri sehingga kejadian stunting dapat dideteksi secara dini.
