“…Early growth delay will be difficult to catch up in infants born with LBW. The growth of a child who lags behind normal growth will cause the child to experience stunting (Ode et al, 2022). Low birth weight can be caused by the mother's poor nutritional state during pregnancy, causing intrauterine growth retardation, and at birth.…”

Background: Indonesia is facing a significant nutrition problem characterized by a high prevalence of undernutrition cases. Malnutrition is a consequence of poor nutritional status. Stunting is one form of malnutrition associated with a history of inadequate nutrient intake, making it a chronic nutritional problem. One potential factor affecting child growth is a history of low birth weight (LBW). The study aims to analyze the correlation between a history of LBW (Low Birth Weight) and the occurrence of stunting. Method: This research used a literature review study design, using secondary data sourced from electronic databases, consisting of 111 Pubmed articles, 518 Google Scholar articles, and 138 Science Direct articles. Article searches were conducted using keywords related to low birth weight for gestational age, stunting, and children, resulting in 15 relevant articles. The searches using these keywords are limited ( the last 10 years) and then screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Result: Twelve of fifteen pieces of literature reinforce each other by finding low birth weight has a correlation with the occurrence of stunting. While some studies have confirmed a significant correlation between LBW and stunting, other studies have not found any such link. This suggests that the relationship between LBW and stunting is intricate, and there may be other factors that contribute to the occurrence of stunting. Conclusion: A history of LBW (Low Birth Weight) is a contributing factor in the occurrence of stunting in children.

“…One of the contributing factors to stunting is low birth weight (LBW), which occurs when a newborn weighs less than 2,500 grams. Babies born with LBW are more likely to experience stunting compared to those born at a normal weight (Ode et al, 2022).…”

“…(2021) which stated that the increasing prevalence of stunting correlated with age. Children under the age of five years are susceptible to malnutrition because this period is where a process of rapid growth and development takes place, and the children require attention from their parents and the environment [21,22].…”

Background: The growth and development of children under five years (toddlers) is an indicator of nutritional status in the community. North Sumatra Province is one of 27 provinces with the high prevalence of stunting (>=20%). Objective: This study aimed to identify a correlation between characteristics, knowledge of nutrition and nutritional status (H/A) among children aged 6-59 Months in Medan City. Methods: This observational study used a cross-sectional study design and was conducted from June to July 2022 at Titi Papan Primary Healthcare Center, Medan Deli District, Medan City. Sampling in this study was carried out using a random sampling technique, and the total samples were 153 toddlers. The independent variables in this study were characteristics and mother’s knowledge. While the dependent variable in this study was the nutritional status (H/A). Results: There were significant relationships between age (ρ=0.000), birth weight (ρ=0.018), family income (ρ=0.025) with nutritional status (H/A) of children aged 6-59 months, while characteristics such as birth length, family size and mother’s knowledge were not related with nutritional status. Conclusions: Nutritional status of children aged 6-59 months was influenced by birth weight. Babies with low birth weight (LBW) has a risk of stunting than those with normal weight.

“…Stunting status in toddlers and a history of low birth weight are significantly correlated. [17] The prevalence of stunting increases the risk of birth length. Compared to toddlers with normal birth length, those with low birth length are more likely to experience growth failure.…”

The Global Nutrition Report (2020) stated that stunting is a nutrional problem in children and there are 7,8 million stunted children out of 23 million children in the world. The prevalence of stunting in Indonesia is 24.4%. WHO targeted less than 20% stunting cases in 2024 globally. Parenting styles for toddlers contribute to stunting. Toddlers immunization status and the exclusive breast-feeding are examples of parenting styles. This study aimed to analyze risk factors influencing stunting based on parenting. Case Control approach was used in this study. The sample was taken by using purposive sampling and mothers have stunted 1-5 years old children as case group). Comparison Ratio 1:1 with the control group. Statistical analysis was carried out using the chi-square test (2x2), with an expected value of more than 20%, the Fisher's exact test is used.Multivariate analysis with logistic regression analysis, measuring the effect of a namely the stunting risk assessment.The nominal scale 2 categories, stunting and not stunting. Risk factors of stunting resulted from logistic regression analysis (p>0.05) are nutritional status, exclusive breastfeeding, complementary feeding, immunization status, infectious diseases, and low birth weight. Stunting can be stopped by improving child feeding, improving women's nutrition and household sanitation.
