Stunting occurs in a chronic small intestinal inflammation syndrome, called pediatric environmental enteropathy, resulting in increased intestinal permeability and the entry of immune cells into the intestinal epithelium. The purpose of this study was to study the types of prebiotic food formulas and their effects on LAZ in stunting children. This type of research is a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group design. Held in Sei Ambawang District, Kubu Raya Regency 2019. Samples of stunting children aged 12-24 months were 40 children. The sampling technique was used for purposive sampling. The intervention given is prebiotic formula food given for 30 days. Data processing for LAZ, nutrient intake, and t-independent test statistical analysis each using WHO Anthro 2005, Nutri survey, and SPSS software. The results showed there were differences in LAZ before and after in the group given MF-2 food formula in stunting children (p= 0,034), whereas in the group who received MF-1 showed no difference (p= 0,114). Based on LAZ differences between the two groups after the intervention with independent t-test did not show significant differences (p > 0,05). In conclusion, MF-1 and MF-2 did not differ in increasing LAZ in stunting children, but each group showed MF-2 had an effect on increasing LAZ.
Hypertension is a disorder of the blood vessels that result in oxygen supply and nutrients carried by the blood obstructed to the body tissues that need it (Vitahealth, 2006). Consumption of a diet high in fruits and vegetables, reduced sodium intake and increased potassium intake in foods can reduce the incidence of hypertension (Houston, Harper & PharmD, 2008). This study aims to determine the effect of red watermelon consumption on the decrease in blood pressure in hypertensive patients outpatient in Puskesmas Perumnas I West Pontianak. This type of research is experimental with quasi experiment design with pretest-posttest control group design. The test used is chi square test, paired t-test, wilcoxon, oneway anova and kruskal-wallis. The number of samples studied was 42 samples and the time of the research was conducted on June 2018. The results of the red watermelon in patients with hypertension with a dose of 200 gr, 250 gr and 300 gr for 4 days can lower blood pressure. The average of derivation in systolic blood pressure in the 200 gr group was -10,71 mmHg and diastolic -8,21 mmHg, average of derivation systolic blood pressure in the 250 gr group of -12,86 mmHg and diastolic -9,99 mmHg while the systolic blood pressure average of derivation in group 300 gr for -15,71 mmHg and diastolic equal to -13,57 mmHg. Suggestions in this study respondents can consume watermelon fruit as an alternative to lower blood pressure as much as 300 grams and for subsequent researchers need an additional length of time intervention to see the effect of decreased blood pressure is systolic blood pressure and diastolic responders to normal.
Calcium diet has an important role in energy metabolism regulation especially intracellular Ca 2+ which is the key to arrange the metabolism of adiposity fat and triasilgliserol save. When intracellular Ca 2+ increase it makes the stimulation of gen lipogenic and lipogenesis also forcing of lipolysis and finally increasing the fat fitting and increasing adiposity. The low level of calcium absorbtion increases the production of calsitirol which could stimulate adiposity Ca 2+ influx and the concequance is the increase of adiposity, so it needs high calcium diet to delay lipogenesis increase of lipolysis, lipid oksidaxion, to reduce fat adiposity and weight. The research used pretest -postest control group design. Trial animal were male rat of Rattus novergicus strain wistar. The research consisted of 2 phases. The first phase was increasing the rat weight by giving normal diet with calcium of 0,4% for all kinds of rats for 4 weeks. The second phase by giving calcium diet with different doses that is group A as control group (0,4% Ca as normal diet), group B 0,8% Ca (Ca as normal diet + 0,4% Ca as CaCO3), group C 1,2% Ca (Ca as normal diet + 0,8% Ca as CaCO3) and group D 1,6% Ca(Ca as normal diet + 1,2% Ca as CaCO3) for 4 weeks. To find out the difference of calcium diet it used statistical test Oneway Anova, and to find out where the difference Tukey HSD was used.The result of the research in the treatment by using calcium diet with different calcium content showed the average of weight of the rats. The lowest was in the group with more calcium as 1,6% (D group) with 30,95 gr, followed by C group with 1,2% calcium as 42,57gr, B group with calcium 0,8% as 61,2 gr and the highest average of rat weight in A group as control with calcium diet 0,4% as 70,97 gr. Statiscal analysis by using Oneway Anova shows some different results on the rat's weight average growth progress on each treatment (p = 0,000). Tukey HRD showed that the different result on the rat's weight average growth progress on all treatment. While the energy intake seems not so significant (p= 0,978). This matter indicates that high calcium diet on at rats decreases rat's weight.Keywords: Calcium, vitamin D, adiposity, body weight PENDAHULUANKegemukan atau obesitas terjadi karena konsumsi makanan yang melebihi kebutuhan Angka Kecukupan Gizi (AKG) perhari. Bila kelebihan ini terjadi dalam jangka waktu lama, dan tidak diimbangi dengan aktivitas yang cukup untuk membakar kelebihan energi, lambat laun kelebihan energi tersebut akan diubah menjadi lemak dan ditimbun di dalam sel lemak dibawah kulit (1).Organisasi Kesehatan Dunia (WHO) menyatakan obesitas sebagai penyebab kematian kedua didunia setelah merokok. Lebih dari 1,7 miliar penduduk di dunia mengalami kelebihan berat badan dan obesitas. Bahkan saat ini prevalensi penderitanya meningkat tiap tahunnya (2).Hasil survey Indeks Massa Tubuh (IMT) tahun 1995 -1997 di 27 ibukota propinsi menunjukkan bahwa prevalensi gizi lebih mencapai 6,8% pada laki-laki dewasa dan 13,5% pada perempuan dewasa.
