“…The study showed that prevalence of stunting children was more common among male than female children but statistically was not significant. This founding similar to other studies that documented boys more common than girls in the prevalence of stunted children [12], [13], [14]. To date, it is unclear what social or biological reason might account for this difference [14].…”

“…Lower maternal height in our study was found to be a significant factor associated with stunted children. A study also found that maternal height <150 cm coincided with maternal age at high risk, low birth weight, and body length were strongly associated with stunting [12]. Beal reports that lower maternal height along with lower maternal education are important determinants of child stunting in Indonesia [6].…”

“…The results showed that there were differences in birth weight between these groups where low birth weight was more commonly found in stunted group compared to nonstunted group and it was statistically significant (p < 0.05). Many studies support that low birth weight is an important factor in the occurrence of stunting in children [12], [15]. Birth weight is an important marker of maternal and fetal health and nutrition.…”

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of stunted children under 5 years in Riau Province exceeds 27.35% and Kampar District contributed the highest prevalence rate (32.05%) compared to other districts in Riau Province. AIM: This study aims to analyze the parental sociodemographic factors of parents associated with stunting children in Kampar District, Riau Province in Indonesia. METHODS: This type of research is a case-control study on stunted children in Kampar Regency aged under 5 years. Control group was selected by matching process include age, gender, residence, and socioeconomic status. Anthropometric measurements performed and calculated using the World Health Organization Anthro (version 3.2.2, October 2020) include weight-for-age z-score (WAZ), height-for-age z-score (HAZ), weight-for-height z-score (WHZ), and body mass index. The analysis carried out includes univariate and bivariate analysis to find the relationship between the independent variable and the dependent variable. RESULTS: Approximately 139 children aged 2 to 59 months consist of stunted (68) and nonstunted (71) groups. Among the 68 stunted children, 31 (41.3%) were very stunted. The stunted group had decreased in WAZ, HAZ, and WHZ, but only HAZ was statistically significant (p < 0.05). Lower mother’s height and education were determined of parental sociodemographic factors associated with stunting and increased risk of stunted children in Kampar (odds ratio [OR] 3.02 and OR 2.50, 95% confidence interval, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Lower maternal’s height and education were determine parental sociodemographic factors associated with stunting in Kampar.

“…The proportion of participants with calcium deficiency was higher in severely thin/thin category. A study from Indonesia, reported that level of calcium and vitamin D were not associated with the incidence of stunting [ 70 ]. Another study on Ecuadorian children reported that low serum vitamin D levels in underweight and stunted [ 71 ].…”

Prevalence of specific micronutrient deficiencies in urban school going children and adolescence of India: A multicenter cross-sectional study

et al. 2022

Introduction Childhood and adolescence require adequate amount of micronutrients for normal growth and development. The primary objective of study was to assess the prevalence of deficiencies of Vitamins (Vitamin A, 25 Hydroxy Vitamin D, Vitamin B12 and Folate) and minerals (Calcium, Zinc, Selenium and Iron), among urban school going children aged 6–11 and 12–16 years in ten cities of India. Secondary objective was to find the association between micronutrient deficiencies with sociodemographic and anthropometric indicators. Methods A multi-center cross-sectional study was conducted across India. Participants in the age groups of 6 to 11 years (group 1) and 12 to 16 years (group 2) were selected from randomly chosen schools from each center. Data on socio economic status, anthropometric measures was collected. Blood samples were collected for biochemical analysis of micronutrients. Point estimates and 95% confidence intervals was used to assess the prevalence of deficiencies. Associations were observed using chi square, student t test and ANOVA test. Results From April 2019 to February 2020, 2428 participants (1235 in group 1 and 1193 group 2) were recruited from 60 schools across ten cites. The prevalence of calcium and iron deficiency was 59.9% and 49.4% respectively. 25 Hydroxy Vitamin D deficiency was seen in 39.7% and vitamin B12 in 33.4% of subjects. Folate, Selenium and Zinc were deficient in 22.2%, 10.4% and 6.8% of subjects respectively. Vitamin A deficiency least (1.6%). Anemia was prevalent in 17.6% subjects and was more common among females. Conclusion One or more micronutrient deficiencies are found in almost one half of school going children in urban area. Hence efforts must be made to combat these on priority. Trial registration number CTRI/2019/02/017783.

“…History of LBW had a significant effect on the incidence of stunting with (OR= 10.44;95%CI= 3.28 to 33.30;p< 0.001). A study aimed to analyze risk factors and various nutrients associated with stunting among children aged 6-60 months, found that LBW is the main risk factor contributing to stunting and is strongly associated with low zinc levels (Febriani et al, 2020). Another study showed that LBW was a predictor of stunting in children aged 0-11 months (Sartika et al, 2021).…”

Backround: Stunting was one of the global nutritional problems that are still widely found, especially in developing countries. in Asia, 87 million children were stunted. This study aimed to look at the risk of family characteristics and health history on the incidence of stunting. Subjects dan Method: This was a case-control study conducted in the Sidenreng Rappang district. The dependent variables were family characteristics consisting of maternal education and household members and health history consisting of LBW and infectious diseases. The independent variable was stunting. The target population in this study was all stunting toddlers in the district based on data from the 2019 statistical agency report. The sample selection technique was simple random sampling. The case samples obtained was 51 respondents and the control was 51 respondents so the total sample was 102 respondents. The data were using a questionnaire as a variable measuring instrument. The data were analyzed using logistic regression. Results: We found toddlers from mothers with low education are more at risk of stunting than those with higher education (OR= 2.89; CI= 1.24 to 6.74; p=0.022). Toddlers who live with more than 4 family members were more at risk of stunting than 4 people or less (OR= 0.63; CI= 0.23 to 1.87; p=0.596). Toddlers with low birth weight were more at risk of stunting than those with normal birth weight (OR= 10.44; CI= 3.28 to 33.30; p=0.000). Toddlers with a history of infection were more at risk of stunting than those without a history of infection (OR= 2.50; CI= 1.10 to 5.64; p=0.043). Conclusion:The highest risk factor for stunting is the low birth weight factor.
