“…Babies born weighing less than 2,500 g are 1.27–5.9 times more likely to experience growth retardation ( 15 , 30 ). Children born less than 48 cm have a 15.0 times higher risk of stunting ( 30 , 31 ).…”

The nutritional status of pregnant women greatly determines their newborn outcome. Deficiencies of several micronutrients are associated with stunting in early childhood, affecting health into adulthood. However, apart from the systemic disease that has been a concern so far, fetal undernutrition can also be associated with dental caries in a child's early life, especially since the primary teeth begin to form during the mother's gestation period. The important thing to underline regarding the intrauterine formation of primary teeth is especially in terms of enamel formation. One of the causes of developmental enamel defects that will contribute to the emergence of early childhood caries is the malnutrition of the pregnant mother. This mini-review aims to understand the linkage mechanism behind neonatal stunting to early childhood caries. This concept is expected to generate further research to help prevent both growth stunting and early childhood caries. In addition, with some evidence-based research, the importance of the first dental visit can be further promoted.

“…Panjang badan lahir tidak berpengaruh signifikan disebabkan karena anak yang lahir stunting namun di masa pertumbuhan mengalami perbaikan gizi terutama di periode 2 tahun pertama kehidupan yang menyebabkan anak dapat mengejar pertumbuhannya pada usia balita (Aryastami and Tarigan, 2017). Hasil penelitian ini berbeda dengan penelitian (Hastuti et al, 2020) yang menemukan bahwa panjang badan lahir anak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap kejadian stunting. Sebanyak 50% pada balita yang stunting, ibunya berpendidikan tamat SMP ke bawah sedangkan yang tidak stunting 52% tamat SMA ke atas.…”

The number of toddlers experiencing stunting was still quite high and can have an impact on their growth and development. This study aims to analyzed the factors that influence the incidence of stunting in children aged 6-59 months in Parepare City. This type of research was observational with a cross-sectional study approach. The sample that became the subject of this study were children aged 6-59 months in Parepare city. Sampling was done by simple random sampling method as many as 49 people. Data were analysed using Chi-square test and Fisher Exact Test. The results showed that 49% of children under five were stunted. Birth length (p=0,425), low birth weight (p=1,000), mother's education (p=0,889), socioeconomic (p=0,667), age of complementary feeding (p=0,680) and type of food (p=0,951) were not significant effect on the incidence of stunting in children under five in the City of Parepare. It was suggested the need for education in increasing the knowledge of mothers of toddlers, especially in preparing first 1000 days of life .

Stunting is caused by various factors, including low nutritional intake in the first two years of life. This study aimed to investigate the differences in sociodemographic factors and mineral, vitamin, and enzyme parameters in mothers associated with the occurrence of stunting in children. We conducted a cross-sectional study from September to November 2020 on North Sumatra Island, Indonesia. The data collected included sociodemographic characteristics, pregnancy history, birth history, food intake, and laboratory examinations, including measurements of calcium, iron, zinc, vitamin D, pancreatic amylase, and serum lipase levels. This study included 50 healthy mothers aged 18–50 years old with children aged 2 to 60 months. There was a significant difference in serum calcium levels between the groups of mothers of children with normal and stunted growth (p = 0.03, mean difference±standard error (SE) = 0.23±0.12, 95% CI: 0.19–0.45). All of the study subjects were categorized as vitamin D deficient. The mean lipase level in the group of mothers of children with stunted growth was significantly lower than that in the group of mothers of children with normal growth (p = 0.02, mean difference±SE = 4.34±1.83, 95% CI: 0.62–8.06). The conclusion was that serum lipase levels were significantly lower in mothers of children with stunted growth compared to mothers of children with normal growth. Serum lipase levels this low are likely to indicate that a mother is unable to meet her child’s calcium needs during pregnancy, increasing the child’s risk of stunted growth.
