“…Some results of studies stated that the risk of stunting in children is reduced when there is improved household water, sanitation, and hygiene practices, which may be increased by mothers' exposure to television and the internet. As far as we are aware, this is the first study to use route analysis to examine the relationship between media exposure and stunting (Huo et al, 2022). In order to develop and implement effective interventions, it will be necessary to comprehend the contributions of the various stunting risk factors in order to meet the WHO milestones for reducing stunting.…”

According to WHO, the primary causes of stunting in children under five years old include infections, insufficient infant and child feeding practises, and poor maternal health and nutrition. This study aimed to investigate the use of Technology as a health promotion strategy for stunting knowledge in nursing students during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study used an analytic study using a quasi-experimental study. The sampling technique used purposive sampling. The sample in this study was 22 respondents in health university students, with a total population of 45 respondents. The findings revealed that the use of animation-based technology in health promotion can help nursing science students at the Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery of Megarezky University learn more about stunting, including how to provide children with enough nutrition and how to parent stunted children. Animation-based Technology makes information easier to understand and allows for repetition; it has an impact on nursing students' understanding of stunting and how to promote health effectively.

The implementation of Community Service is the result of collaboration between the Communication Studies Faculty Universitas Mercu Buana and Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), with SMKN 60 in West Jakarta. The Theme of Community Service Activities is Campaign of Prevent Stunting and Remember WASH. This activity purpose to increase student knowledge and awareness about environmental and impact of Stunting for the health. The Community Service activities will be carried out in the form of socialization with selected topics. In order for problem solving to be in accordance with the analysis of the situation and problems of the partners above, it can be implemented and achieve the objectives, then this activity uses socialisation method. Findings – This Socialization is expected to inspire and bring change to community, especially student at SMKN 60 Jakarta so that they have knowledge and awareness about impact of stunting for the health. Based on the results of the implementation evaluation, the average participant stated that this activity was useful (66%), increased knowledge (64%), could solve problems (66%), increased competence (70%) and creativity (66%), could change behavior in the right direction. positive (58%); can apply it to family, friends and relatives (68%), can lead to joining useful communities (70%).

“…Several studies have shown that access to media has a direct influence on health behaviours [ 53 ], including nutrition behaviours [ 54 ] in sub-Saharan Africa [ 55 ] and other South Asian countries [ 56 ], including Bangladesh [ 57 ]. Therefore, the study findings are consistent with previous studies.…”

Spatial variations and determinants of malnutrition among under-five children in Nigeria: A population-based cross-sectional study

2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Childhood undernutrition is a major public health challenge in sub-Saharan Africa, particularly Nigeria. Determinants of child malnutrition may have substantial spatial heterogeneity. Failure to account for these small area spatial variations may cause child malnutrition intervention programs and policies to exclude some sub-populations and reduce the effectiveness of such interventions. This study uses the Composite Index of Anthropometric Failure (CIAF) and a geo-additive regression model to investigate Nigeria’s prevalence and risk factors of childhood undernutrition. The geo-additive model permits a flexible, joint estimation of linear, non-linear, and spatial effects of some risk factors on the nutritional status of under-five children in Nigeria. We draw on data from the most recent Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey (2018). While the socioeconomic and environmental determinants generally support literature findings, distinct spatial patterns were observed. In particular, we found CIAF hotspots in the northwestern and northeastern districts. Some child-related factors (Male gender: OR = 1.315; 95% Credible Interval (CrI): 1.205, 1.437) and having diarrhoea: OR = 1.256; 95% CrI: 1.098, 1.431) were associated with higher odds of CIAF. Regarding household and maternal characteristics, media exposure was associated with lower odds of CIAF (OR = 0.858; 95% CrI: 0.777, 0.946). Obese maternal BMI was associated with lower odds of CIAF (OR = 0.691; 95% CrI: 0.621, 0.772), whereas, mothers classified as thin were associated with higher odds of CIAF (OR = 1.216; 95% CrI: 1.055, 1.411). Anthropometric failure is highly prevalent in Nigeria and spatially distributed. Therefore, localised interventions that aim to improve the nutritional status of under-five children should be considered to avoid the under-coverage of the regions that deserve more attention.
