“…This may be attributed to the fact that young women are less experienced in likely to experience adverse nutritional outcomes than children whose mothers have secondary or higher education. This implies that the higher the level of education of women, the less the incidence of adverse nutritional outcomes among their children (Dessie et al, 2019;Gea-Horta et al, 2016;Nankinga et al, 2019). Educated women are more enlightened and exposed in terms of information relating to child health.…”

Undernutrition is linked to almost half of all deaths in under-five children. In 2019, 144 million under-five children suffered from stunting and 47 million suffered from wasting. This study examined the factors that influence adverse nutritional status of children in sub-Saharan Africa. The study used data from the Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) of 31 countries, which involved 189,195 children under age 5. Binary logistic regression was used to examine the relationships between the independent variables and adverse nutritional status of children. About 26% of the children in the 31 countries in sub-Saharan Africa considered in this study are stunted, 6% are wasted and 21% are underweight. Close to 31% of children whose mothers have no education are stunted, 9% are wasted and 28% are underweight. Adverse nutritional status of children is significantly associated with maternal age, education, household wealth, residence, antenatal care attendance, mass media exposure, child's sex and size of child at birth. This study has shown that adverse nutritional status of children is a major challenge in sub-Saharan Africa. Efforts at improving nutritional status of children should include poverty alleviation initiatives at individual and household levels, increase in women's educational level and improvement in living conditions in rural areas.

“…Bukan hanya itu, pendidikan ibu, pekerjaan ibu, pendapatan keluarga, jumlah anak, pola asuh dan riwayat penyakit infeksi juga mempengaruhi status gizi termasuk pertumbuhan anak balita. 7,15 Selain itu, faktor lain yang dapat mempengaruhi pertumbuhan balita adalah jenis pekerjaan ayah dan jenis pekerjaan ibu. Jenis pekerjaan yang sebagian besar mejadi buruh maka diperkirakan pendapatan keluarga rendah, sehingga akan berpengaruh terhdap pemilihan bahan makanan dan akan mempengaruhi status gizi dan pertumbuhan balita.…”

Pertumbuhan saat balita memiliki dampak terhadap kehidupan selanjutnya karena masa balita merupakan masa kritis (golden period). Status gizi anak harus diperhatikan sejak dalam kandungan. Asupan gizi yang baik pada saat kehamilan penting untuk pertumbuhan janin sampai bayi dilahirkan. Bayi lahir dengan berat badan rendah dapat mengalami risiko gangguan pertumbuhan dengan gizi kurang, pendek dan kurus. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan riwayat status gizi ibu masa kehamilan yang dinilai dengan pertambahan berat badan ibu trimester III dan ukuran LILA dengan pertumbuhan balita. Desain penelitian dengan cross sectional. Jumlah sampel sebanyak 109 ibu yang mempunyai balita di Kecamatan Soreang, Kabupaten Bandung pada bulan Maret-November 2016. Pengambilan sample dengan multistage random sampling dan dianalisis dengan uji Gamma Chi-square. Tidak terdapat hubungan antara lingkar lengan atas (LILA) ibu saat hamil dengan pertumbuhan anak balita berdasarkan BB/U (p=0,065), TB/U (p=0,218) dan BB/TB (p=0,089). Dan juga tidak terdapat hubungan antara pertambahan berat badan ibu trimester III kehamilan dengan pertumbuhan balita berdasarkan BB/U (p=0,978), TB/U (p=0,678) dan BB/TB (p=0,724). Tidak terdapat hubungan antara riwayat status gizi ibu pada masa kehamilan berdasarkan ukuran LILA dan pertambahan berat badan ibu hamil trimester III dengan pertumbuhan anak balita.Kata Kunci: Masa Kehamilan, Pertumbuhan Balita, Status Gizi

“…An epidemiological study conducted in Brazil indicated that approximately 35% of school-aged children are overweight 18 . The incidence of overweight in children has been increasing in the last 30 years, characterizing a public health problem and influencing short-and long-term child health 19 . Therefore, attention must be given to obesity since, besides systemic complications, it interferes with motor development, as observed in the present study.…”

Introdução: A obesidade/sobrepeso pode interferir na aquisição das habilidades motoras do lactente, o qual, na tentativa de buscar mecanismos de adaptações tem o seu desenvolvimento motor alterado. Objetivos: Verificar se o peso elevado para a idade interfere no desenvolvimento motor da criança de zero a dois anos de idade e, se há diferença do desenvolvimento entre meninos e meninas. Materiais e Métodos: Participaram do estudo 43 lactentes de zero a dois anos, divididos em dois grupos: Grupo com peso elevado para a idade (GE) e Grupo de comparação (GC). Todos foram avaliados por meio da “Escala Motora Infantil de Alberta”. A análise dos dados foi realizada por meio de estatística descritiva, com frequências relativas e absolutas, média e desvio padrão. Para verificar a normalidade das variáveis aleatórias utilizou-se o teste Kolmogorov-Smirnov, e considerando a normalidade dos dados, foi aplicado o teste t-Student para amostras independentes. Em todos os casos, considerou-se um nível de significância de 5% (p<0,05). Resultados: Verificou-se diferença estatisticamente significativa entre o GE e o GC para as seguintes variáveis: Índice de Massa Corpórea (p=0,000), peso para a idade (p=0,002), e déficit no desenvolvimento motor observado nas crianças com peso elevado (p=0,039). Não houve diferença estatisticamente significativa para o desenvolvimento motor entre meninos e meninas em ambos os grupos. Conclusão: Os resultados confirmam que o peso elevado, entre zero a dois anos de idade, pode interferir negativamente no desenvolvimento motor. Assim, é necessário monitorar o desenvolvimento dessas crianças, orientar e intervir precocemente para minimizar e prevenir as possíveis alterações.
