Abstract

Stunting sangat umum di Kabupaten Langkat, dengan prevalensi 31,5% menurut Studi Status Gizi Indonesia (SSGI) pada tahun 2021. Untuk menurunkan angka stunting, pemerintah telah mengimplementasikan inisiatif seperti Targeted Therapeutic Dietary Intervention dengan suplementasi gizi pada remaja putri berupa pemberian tablet tambah darah. Nama resmi untuk proyek ini adalah Program PPAGB (Pencegahan dan Penatalaksanaan Anemia Gizi Besi). Kegiatan ini berupa pemberian tablet tambah darah kepada remaja putri yang wajib dikonsumsi agar remaja putri tidak mengalami anemia defisiensi besi. Berdasarkan informasi dari kepala sekolah, diketahui bahwa SMA Negeri 1 Binjai belum menerima program suplementasi besi dalam satu tahun terakhir, dan belum pernah ada penyuluhan tentang pencegahan anemia pada remaja putri. Metode pengabdian masyarakat ini berupa edukasi tentang anemia dan pencegahan anemia, pelatihan dan pendampingan. Tiga puluh siswi ikut dalam pengabdian ini. Teknik analisis data menggunakan uji-t. Hasil pengukuran status gizi menunjukkan mayoritas siswi memiliki nilai rata-rata Hb normal adalah 29 (96,7%), untuk IMT normal 14 (46,7%), dan LILA normal 16 (53,3%). Skor rata-rata sebelum dan sesudah edukasi ini masing-masing adalah 36,02 dan 66,92. Hasil uji T statistik didapatkan nilai p = 0,000 < α = 0,05 Dari hasil tersebut dapat disimpulkan bahwa remaja putri yang berpartisipasi dalam pengabdian masyarakat ini secara signifikan mengalami peningkatan pengetahuan dan keterampilan dalam melakukan screening pencegahan anemia.

Abstract

Medan City is one of the North Sumatra areas with stunting problems. Pulo Brayan Kota, West Medan District, is included in the ten villages with the highest stunting cases. Strengthening integrated service posts by improving cadres’ skills is essential to monitoring toddlers’ growth every month. This research was carried out at the same time as community service, which was carried out from June to August 2021. The activity began with a preliminary survey, training for 12 cadres of integrated service posts, and conducting food security training for 40 Family Cards. Cadre training is carried out by presenting and practicing measuring the height of toddlers with a pacemaker and recording the measurement results on the Towards Health Card. Food security activities are carried out by submitting and practicing catfish farming in buckets and growing vegetables vertically using bottles. The results obtained include improving the skills of Integrated Service Post cadres in measuring the height of toddlers and the community to be skilled in catfish farming and growing vegetables vertically, the results of which can be used to strengthen food security in households to reduce the growth rate of stunting.

Abstract

The waist-hip ratio (WHR) is the comparison between an individual's waist circumference and hip circumference. This ratio is frequently used in health research to assess body fat distribution and can indicate health risks associated with obesity. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages and physical activity with the waist-hip ratio among students of MAS Plus Al-Ulum Medan. This research employs a quantitative method with a cross-sectional approach. The results indicate that most students consume excessive amounts of sugar (≥50 grams/day) and have low levels of physical activity. Bivariate analysis using Spearman's rank correlation showed a significant relationship between the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages and WHR, with a strong and positive correlation. Additionally, there is a significant relationship between the level of physical activity and WHR, with a strong and inverse correlation. Students of MAS Plus Al-Ulum Medan are encouraged to reduce their consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages and increase their physical activity. Keywords: SSB’s, physical activity, WHR, adolescents

Abstract

Nutritional problems in children in Indonesia stem from what they eat, including the consumption of school snacks. Education on the nutritional content of school snacks must be provided to overcome the risk of snacks in school-age children to obtain balanced nutrition. The purpose of this study was to provide education on nutritional content and sanitation at SD Islam Ulun Nuha Medan. The design of this study used a pre-experiment with a one group pre-post-test design with a sample of 129 students from grade 5 to grade 6. Education was provided through lectures containing the concept of nutritional content and sanitation in children's snacks. Pre-test and post-test were conducted before and after the education using 10 question in questionnaire. The results of this activity show the pre-test and post-test that have been distributed before and after education, which shows that there is an increase in respondents' knowledge before and after being given education, which is 6.66 with a p-value of 0.0001. It’s shows that there is an influence of nutrition education on students' knowledge about nutritional and sanitation in snacks. The increase in knowledge can be caused by using lecture and demonstration methods with slide presentation media and examples of healthy and unhealthy snack foods. The use of the right methods and media greatly affects the results of education where the more senses are exposed, the easier it is to understand a message.

Abstract

Stunting is a form of chronic malnutrition that adversely affects the growth and development of children under five years of age. This study aimed to analyze the factors associated with stunting among children in Banda Aceh, Indonesia. A cross-sectional study was conducted in Banda Aceh in 2023 involving 128 respondents, comprising 64 stunted children (cases) and 64 non-stunted children (controls). Data were analyzed using chi-square tests and logistic regression at the 95% confidence level. Results: Maternal knowledge (p=0,002), socioeconomic status (p=0,005), breastfeeding practices (p=0,012), birth weight (p=0,009), and maternal educational level (p=0,014) were significantly associated with stunting. The dominant factor influencing stunting was low birth weight (odds ratio [OR] =2,4; p=0,012). In conclusion, low birth weight was identified as the primary determinant of stunting. Other factors, such as maternal knowledge, education, socioeconomic status, and breastfeeding also played a role, although they were not significant in the multivariate analysis. Stunting prevention should begin during pregnancy through multi-sectoral interventions, nutrition education, strengthened antenatal care services, and family economic empowerment.
