Nurses’ compliance in intravenous injection among patients with extreme nutritional status: Implications for patient safety Idayanti, Idayanti Rophi, Kristiyani Herda gizi klinik; kesehatan masyarakat; informasi kesehatan Intravenous injection, Compliance, Nutritional status, Obesity, Patient safety Intravenous (IV) injection safety is a critical aspect of nursing practice, particularly for patients with extreme nutritional status. Nutritional imbalance can affect vascular integrity and tissue resistance, potentially reducing adherence to standard procedures. This study aimed to examine the relationship between nurses’ compliance with intravenous injection procedures and patient safety among individuals with extreme nutritional conditions in a hospital setting. This cross-sectional observational study was conducted at Arifin Achmad General Hospital, Pekanbaru, between January and March 2024, and involved 60 adult patients with undernutrition (BMI < 18.5 kg/m²) or obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m²). Compliance was measured using a checklist based on the WHO and Ministry of Health guidelines, and patient safety was assessed through IV-related complications. Data were analyzed using chi-square and multivariate logistic regression analyses. The results showed a compliance rate of 72.5% and a significant relationship between compliance and the incidence of complications (p = 0.008). Noncompliance increased the risk of complications by 2.8 times (OR = 2.8; p = 0.014). In conclusion, nurses’ adherence to IV injection procedures significantly affects patient safety. Continuous training and adaptive protocols that consider patients’ nutritional status are recommended to enhance nursing service quality.

Risk factors of under-fives stunting in low-income households Zamzamy, Hilda Zakiyya Suminah, Suminah Sumardiyono, Sumardiyono Kesehatan; Gizi; Gizi Masyarakat Children Under Five, Poor Households, Risk Factor, Stunting. Stunting prevalence in Indonesia is still high and far from the National medium term development plan 2020-2024 target. As many as 41% of stunted under-fives come from poor households in the stunting focus area of the Bantul Regency. This study assessed the risk factors for stunting in low-income households. This study was conducted in July 2023 in Bantul Regency using an unmatched case-control approach. Using a purposive sampling technique, 156 children under five (78 cases and 78 controls), aged 6-59 months, from low-income families registered in the village and receiving social assistance from the Ministry of Social Affairs, were chosen. Interviews were conducted to gather research data, and a validity- and reliability-tested questionnaire was used. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, chi-squared tests, and binary logistic regression. The findings demonstrated a substantial correlation (p<0,05) between low birth weight and antenatal care (ANC) visits and stunting; however, there was no correlation (p>0,05) between mothers’ education level, mother’s age, and children’s breastfeeding status. In conclusion, low birth weight and ANC visits are risk factors for stunting among underfives. Low birth weight is the primary cause of stunting in children under five in low-income families.  Department of Nutrition at the Health Polytechnic of Aceh, Ministry of Health 2024-06-19 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Observational Analytic (Case-Control) application/pdf https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/view/1730 10.30867/action.v9i2.1730 AcTion: Aceh Nutrition Journal; Vol 9, No 2 (2024): June; 247-258 2548-5741 2527-3310 10.30867/action.v9i2 eng https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/view/1730/611 https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/downloadSuppFile/1730/1503 https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/downloadSuppFile/1730/1504 https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/downloadSuppFile/1730/1505 https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/downloadSuppFile/1730/1517 Copyright (c) 2024 Hilda Zakiyya Zamzamy, Suminah, Sumardiyono http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0

Nutritional status and laboratory characteristics of nephrotic syndrome in children undergoing steroid and non-steroid therapy at Dr. Zainoel Abidin Hospital, Banda Aceh Haris, Syafruddin Riza, Fahrul Thaib, T. M. Anidar, Anidar Thaib, Bakhtiar Sovira, Nora Nephrotic syndrome, difficult-to-treat nephrotic syndrome, laboratory characteristics, steroids, non-steroids, immunosuppressant therapy Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is a clinical condition characterized by massive proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, edema, and hypercholesterolemia. Frequently relapsing NS, steroid-dependent NS, and steroid-resistant NS are categorized as problematic owing to treatment difficulties. These patients require prolonged high-dose steroid therapy or immunosuppressants, resulting in significant side effects. This study evaluated the nutritional status and laboratory characteristics of NS in children undergoing steroid and non-steroid therapies. This study is the first to assess the nutritional status and laboratory characteristics of children with difficult-to-treat NS who received steroid and non-steroid therapy at RSUDZA Banda Aceh. A cross-sectional study was conducted at the outpatient clinic and pediatric ward of Dr. Zainoel Abidin General Hospital, Banda Aceh, in 2019, which was a limitation because it was conducted during the Covid-19 pandemic so that the number of research subjects was limited, which could have caused bias in the study. Statistical analyses included the chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test for categorical variables and the independent sample t-test or Mann-Whitney test for numerical variables, with a 95% significance level (p < 0,05). A total of 60 children aged 2–18 years participated in this study, with 29 receiving steroid therapy and 31 receiving non-steroid therapy. Urine protein levels and relapse incidence differed significantly between the groups (p < 0,001). However, the serum albumin, urea, creatinine, calcium, and total cholesterol levels were not significantly different. No significant differences were observed in the laboratory characteristics between the steroid and non-steroid therapy groups. However, the non-steroid group exhibited a better urine protein status and fewer relapses, indicating potential therapeutic advantages.

Analysis of the evaluation performance of cadres care stunting in efforts to prevent stunting Salim, Andi Muslimin, Irma Gizi; Kesehatan Masyarakat Stunting, Cadre, pregnant mother Stunting is a condition in which a child experiences growth disturbances so that the child's height is lower or shorter than the standard age. One of the efforts to prevent stunting is by providing assistance to pregnant women. Cadres as the spearhead of health workers who are near pregnant women and mothers with toddlers are expected to be able to monitor pregnant women and mothers with toddlers in efforts to prevent stunting. This study aims to analyze the evaluation of the performance of cadres in efforts to prevent stunting. The study used qualitative methods with in-depth interviews with four key informants and focus group discussions . In-depth interviews were conducted with 4 health cadres, and a Focus Group Discussion involving the  Leaders of Organization of regional apparatus for family planning affairs , District Bappeda, Village Government, Health Center and  Nutrition service staff. The data is then processed through the content analysis method. The data is then reduced through a coding process, summarized and drilled into partitions or sections that focus on questions. The results of the study show that, until now there has been no specific program in the context of efforts to prevent stunting to be carried out by cadres, even though there are currently various types of cadres besides health cadres who are known to be at posyandu, there are also other cadres who formed for the prevention of stunting, however, the implementation of the tasks has not been maximized because there is no specific program that is used as a reference in carrying out the tasks. In conclusion, that the performance of cadres is currently not optimal and focused on efforts to prevent stunting.

Chemical characteristics and potential as functional food of seminyak leaves (Champereia manillana) Restusari, Lily Luqiana, Nur Muharni, Muharni Rahayu, Dewi ​Proximate analysis, Seminyak leaves, Champereia manillana, Functional food. Seminyak (Champereia manillana) is a local food crop from Rokan Hulu, Riau, which is often consumed as a vegetable. Although traditionally used, valid scientific information regarding its nutritional composition is limited, which hinders its development as a functional food. This study aimed to analyze the proximate nutritional and fiber content of Seminyak leaves to evaluate their potential as functional food. The proximate content (moisture, ash, protein, fat, and carbohydrates) and fiber content were analyzed using AOAC 1993 and FOSS Analytical standard methods. The results were descriptively analyzed by presenting the values obtained from these tests. The analysis results showed that Seminyak leaves have a significant protein content of 4.41% and a high ash content of 2.37%. The fat content was very low (0%). The average values of other proximate nutrients included water (78.85%), carbohydrates (9.72%), and crude fiber (2.9%). With this nutritional profile, especially the high protein and mineral (ash) content and low fat content, Seminyak leaves have great potential as a source of vegetable protein and minerals and as a raw material for developing functional food products, which can contribute to local food diversification and food security.

Eating behaviour: How health concern, self-control and gender influence healthy food choice Sinaga, Theresia Cristina Undarwati, Anna Obesity, Health concern, Self-control, Gender, Healthy food choic Most Indonesians are unable to control their food choice. This factor is due to individual indifference to maintaining health, self-control, and gender. This study aimed to examine the personal factors that can influence healthy food choices. The research method used a quasi-experimental with post-test-only control group design; the total sample included 143 participants aged between 17-25 years. This study was conducted at the Psychology Laboratory of Semarang State University in September 2023. Health concerns and self-control were measured by filling out a questionnaire, and an experimental test was conducted to choose healthy food using the Fake Food Buffet. Data analysis was performed using GLM univariate test. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant influence of health concern and self-control on healthy food choices, but the results of gender analysis on healthy food choices are not significant. This means that individuals who care about health and have strong self-control choose healthy food. However, there were no differences in food choice behaviors between women and men. It can be concluded that personal factors, such as health concerns and self-control, significantly influence the choice of healthy food. This could reduce the level of obesity that will occur in the future.

The impact of video nutrition education on nutrition knowledge, food selection, and ultra-processed food consumption in adolescents Rusfianti, Alfia Widyaningsih, Vitri Hikmayani, Nur Hafidha gizi masyarakat ; informasi gizi Nutrition Education, Nutrition Knowledge, Food Selection, Ultra-Processed Food Consumption Frequency The processed food and beverage industry in Indonesia is increasing rapidly, one of which is the ultra-processed food (UPF) industry. Adolescents had a high prevalence of UPF consumption habits (67.6 %). Adolescents generally prefer foods that are easy to obtain and have a good taste, such as ultra-processed foods and beverages. Consumption of snacks by adolescents with more than three servings per day at school can cause overweight. Good nutrition education needs to be provided in an effort to increase adolescent knowledge, and it is hoped that there will be changes in nutritional behavior in the selection and consumption of better food. The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence of nutritional education videos on nutritional knowledge, food selection, and the frequency of ultra-processed food consumption. The design in this study uses the Quasi-Experimental research type, using a design (pretest-posttest control group design). The research was conducted at Senior High School (SHS) A and SHS B in Depok City, West Java. The sample in this study comprised 174 adolescents from January to February 2024. Data on nutritional knowledge, food selection, and frequency of UPF consumption were collected before and after the intervention using nutritional knowledge questionnaires, food selection, and FFQ forms. Data analysis was performed using Wilcoxon and different-in-different tests. The results of the Wilcoxon test in the intervention group showed an effect of providing education before and after the intervention nutrition education video on nutrition knowledge on nutritional knowledge (p=0,000) and food selection (p=0,009). In conclusion, video media have an effect on changes in nutritional knowledge. Video media had no effect on food selection or the frequency of UPF consumption.

Potential iriadiation of Asam Keumamah as an emergency food alternative Hadi, Abdul Khazanah, Wiqayatun Andriani, Andriani Miko, Ampera Husna, Husna Teknologi Pangan; Gizi; Kesehatan Iradiasi, Pangan darurat, Asam Keumamah, Bacteria, Irradiated, Proximate level Emergency food is safe and highly nutritious processed food for disaster victims. It is hoped that the various food product assistants provided after the disaster will be able to meet the needs, but some of the food cannot be stored for a long time. This study aimed to determine the potential of irradiated Asam Keumamah as an alternative to emergency food. The experimental study used a completely randomized design to irradiate five doses of Asam Keumamah stored for 30 days. Asam Keumamah was processed in the Food Technology Laboratory, Nutrition Department of the Aceh Polytechnic, in 2022. Data were collected through laboratory examinations including irradiation, total bacteria, and proximate tests. Statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis, and Duncan’s tests at 95% CI. The results showed that an irradiation dose of 0-20 kGy had no significant effect on the total bacteria and approximate levels of irradiated Asam Keumamah (p>0,05). Irradiation doses of 30, 40, and 50 kGy significantly affected the fat and carbohydrate levels in Asam Keumamah (p< 0,05). In conclusion, irradiated and vacuumed Asam Keumamah lasts longer; therefore, it can be recommended as an alternative post-disaster emergency food source.

Determinants of wasting among children aged 2–5 years in Tanjung Priok, Jakarta, Indonesia Lizamona, Herlinda Fikawati, Sandra Silva, Ruth Alpita Kesehatan Masyarakat, Gizi Child, energy intake, malnutrition, socioeconomic factors, wasting syndrome Wasting contributes to approximately 13% of the global child mortality. In 2022, the prevalence of wasting in Indonesia was 7,7%, declining from 10% in 2013. However, regions such as DKI Jakarta, particularly North Jakarta, still exhibit a high prevalence rate of 9,4%, indicating ongoing challenges in accessing adequate nutrition and healthcare services. This study aimed to examine the determinants of wasting in children aged 2–5 years. This cross-sectional study was conducted in Tanjung Priok, Jakarta, from June to July 2023. A total of 183 children, aged 2–5 years, were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through anthropometric measurements and structured interviews, using validated questionnaires covering dietary intake (SQ-FFQ), household socioeconomic status, and maternal nutrition knowledge. Data analysis included chi-squared tests and logistic regression analyses. The results showed that The prevalence of wasting was 8,7%. Although maternal nutrition knowledge was generally high, it was not significantly associated with wasting (p = 0,171). Energy (p = 0,023) and fat intake (p = 0,022) were significantly associated with wasting. Inadequate energy intake emerged as the dominant factor associated with a 3,7-fold increase in risk (p = 0,032). In conclusion, the primary determinant of wasting among children aged 2–5 years in Tanjung Priok is inadequate energy intake. Although most mothers had high nutrition knowledge, it did not significantly influence their wasting status. Therefore, interventions to prevent wasting should focus on improving energy and fat intake in children.

Effect of low glycemic index diet on HbA1c in type 2 diabetes mellitus: A systematic review and meta-analysis in Asia Wahyuni, Fani Cahya Nisa, Ainun Wiratama, Bayu Satria Huriyati, Emy Susanti, Vina Yanti gizi, diet, diabetes, gizi klinik, systematic review Asia, dietary intervention, glycemic index, type 2 diabetes, systematic review Diabetes mellitus affects 10.5% of the global population, and its prevalence is expected to increase by 2045. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is commonly associated with abnormal HbA1c levels, lipid metabolism, and body mass index (BMI). A low glycemic index (GI) has been proposed to improve HbA1c, lipid profiles, and BMI, but the findings remain inconsistent, and most studies have been conducted in non-Asian populations. This study evaluated the effect of a low-GI diet on HbA1c levels in Asian adults with T2DM. Systematic searches in the PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Scopus databases identified randomized controlled trials (2014-2024) involving adults (≥18 years) with T2DM, excluding pregnant and breastfeeding women. Meta-analysis and subgroup analysis were conducted, and meta-regression was used to assess the moderators.  Study quality was assessed using the ROB-2 and GRADE. Of the 1,485 articles screened, 16 met the inclusion criteria. The low-GI diet significantly reduced HbA1c and LDL levels and increased HDL levels. Subgroup analysis showed variations between the intervention and control groups, with the percentage of female participants and supplementation type as potential moderators. Despite statistical significance, the small effect size, heterogeneity, and low-to-moderate certainty of evidence (GRADE) suggest limited clinical relevance. Further research should consider the sample size, female proportion, and type of intervention in the control group to strengthen the evidence for clinical and policy applications.

It can trigger low IQ and delays in motor and skill development. Therefore, a good understanding of the factors related to children's nutrition will lead to the successful prevention of malnutrition in children under five. This research aims to analyze and synthesize data on factors related to the nutritional status of children under five. This study used a narrative review method. The literature in English was searched using the indexed databases of Google Scholar, Scopus, and PubMed. There were 9.129 scientific journals, and only 13 met the inclusion criteria. From the 13 journals, information was collected in the form of publication years from 2015 to 2021, journal titles, research designs, research populations, interventions, results, and most importantly, the nutrition issue in children under five. Data processing was done by collecting sentences that were relevant to the coding, reading and marking essential sentences, and compiling a framework for reviewing narratives. Data analysis was carried out qualitatively by presenting data and compiling research reports. The results reveal that variables such as prelacteal feeding history, mother's education, infectious diseases suffered, and antenatal care visits were the most critical factors affecting the nutritional status of children under five. Conclusion: The main factors causing the nutritional status of children under five are that the children have a history of prelacteal feeding, low maternal education, children under five often experience infectious diseases, and low antenatal care visits.

Associated between hypertension and body mass index, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels in elderly women Anwar, Sufyan Alamsyah, Teuku Safrida, Safrida Duana, Maiza Khairunnas, Khairunnas Putri, Enda Silvia Marniati, Marniati Muliadi, Teuku Gizi Klinik; Gizi; Kesehatan Elderly, blood pressure, blood glucose, BMI, cholesterol Hypertension is a major public health problem in Indonesia, with the highest number of elderly female patients. This study aimed to assess the relationship between BMI, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels, and systolic and diastolic blood pressure in elderly women. An observational study was conducted using a cross-sectional design, in which 330 women in West Aceh District aged 60 years or older were included. Data were analyzed using simple linear regression and multiple linear regression tests to determine the relationship between independent variables (systolic and diastolic blood pressure) and dependent variables (BMI, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels). The results showed that the correlation between BMI, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels and systolic blood pressure was weak (r ≤ 0.25). The BMI with diastolic blood pressure was moderate (r=0.272). Conversely, the correlation between cholesterol and blood sugar levels and diastolic blood pressure was weak (r ≤ 0.25).  Multivariate analysis showed that BMI (p<0.001), cholesterol (p<0.001), and blood sugar levels (p ≤ 0.013) were significantly associated with systolic blood pressure. Furthermore, diastolic blood pressure was significantly associated with BMI (p <0.001). In conclusion, BMI is associated with systolic and diastolic blood pressure, while cholesterol and blood sugar levels only contribute to systolic blood pressure but not diastolic blood pressure.

Total lactic acid bacteria, microstructure and texture analysis of probiotic soft cheese with rennet-induced protein gelation Istifiani, Lola Ayu Widyanto, Rahma Micho Tsalissavrina, Iva Erlita, Windi Jinni Handayani, Bella Agustina Putri gizi; teknologi pangan Probiotic cheese, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactic Acid Bacteria, Scanning Electron Microscope, Texture Profile Analyzer Consumers are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of choosing healthy probiotic-rich functional foods, such as cheese. Total lactic acid bacteria (LAB) is a crucial measure of success in the development of probiotic soft cheese. Furthermore, it is important to analyze the microstructure and texture of products to determine consumer acceptance. In this study, a randomized block design (RBD) was used with four concentrations of Lactobacillus plantarum FNCC 0026 (0%, 5%, 10%, and 20%). Total LAB was quantified using the total plate count (TPC) method. The microstructure and texture were analyzed using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and a texture profile analyzer (TPA), respectively. In this study, 5% concentration yielded the highest LAB count of 8.054 ± 0.54 log CFU/g (2.0 × 108 CFU/g) and optimal texture attributes. The texture values included hardness (32.41–48.89 N), adhesiveness (0.03–2.65 Nmm), and springiness (0.78–0.83). Furthermore, FESEM analysis revealed no differences in the protein and fat distribution in the microstructure of probiotic soft cheese. These results substantiate the potential of probiotic soft cheese as functional foods. A concentration of 5% Lactobacillus plantarum FNCC 0026 yielded optimal results for total LAB count and texture profile attributes, including hardness, adhesiveness, and springiness.

Folinic acid and autism spectrum disorder in children: A systematic review and meta-analysis of two double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trials Soetedjo, Farida Anggraini Kristijanto, Johanes Aprilius Falerio Durry, Fara Disa gizi; kesehatan; informasi kesehatan Autism spectrum disorder, folinic acid, meta-analysis, Folic acid is a synthetic vitamin B9 that plays an important role in folate metabolism, including the synthesis of DNA and RNA, and epigenetic methylation. These processes are essential for the development of the nervous system. Impaired folate metabolism contributes to the pathophysiology of ASD through the dysregulation of neurochemical and epigenetic processes. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy of folinic acid in alleviating ASD symptoms.  Methods: Review Manager Software. Searches were conducted in PubMed, Science Direct, and Cochrane based on studies published in the last five years (2018-2023), with inclusion criteria of RCTs and exclusion of observational studies and non-English articles. Fixed-effects analysis was used because no heterogeneity was observed. Results: Two studies (n= 103) evaluated the effect of folinic acid on reducing ASD symptoms. Symptoms were assessed using the aberrant behavior checklist. The pooled mean difference was -0,66, with a 95% confidence interval ranging from -1,22 -0,10. The results showed statistical significance, with a p-value of 0,02. However, this analysis used only two studies with small sample sizes and modest mean differences. In conclusion, folinic acid administration has the potential to reduce ASD symptoms in children. Further research with a larger sample size is needed to generalize the clinically meaningful results.

The effect of soybean tempeh and gembus tempeh on obesity parameters, blood glucose, and short-chain fatty acids Sunarti, Sunarti Aminin, Agustina LN Rachmawati, Banundari Sulchan, Mohammad Gizi Dietary fiber, fermented foods, hyperglycemia, obesity, short-chain fatty acids Obesity contributes to hyperglycemia and metabolic dysfunction globally. Soybean and gembus tempeh, traditional Indonesian fermented foods, contain distinct dietary fiber compositions that may differentially influence metabolic outcomes through short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production. However, comparative evidence regarding their metabolic effects is limited. This study aimed to compare the effects of soybean and gembus tempeh on obesity parameters, fasting blood glucose, and SCFA profiles in a rat model of hyperglycemic obesity. Methods: A randomized controlled pre–post trial was conducted at the Food and Nutrition Study Center, Universitas Gadjah Mada (April–June 2019). Forty-two rats were assigned to seven groups: normal, hyperglycemic-obese + AIN-93, AIN-93 + gembus tempeh, AIN-93 + soybean tempeh, high-fat high-fructose diet (HFFD), HFFD + gembus tempeh, and HFFD + soybean tempeh. The obesity index, fasting blood glucose, and SCFA concentrations were measured. Both types of tempeh significantly reduced the obesity index and fasting glucose levels in rats fed either the AIN-93 or HFFD diet, with greater reductions observed in the AIN-93 group (p < 0.001). Butyrate levels were significantly higher in the tempeh-supplemented groups than in the control group (p < 0.01), whereas propionate levels did not differ significantly (p = 0.079). In conclusion, soybean tempeh and gembus tempeh improved fasting glucose levels, obesity index, and SCFA production in hyperglycemic-obese rats. Gembus tempeh demonstrated a greater effect on reducing obesity index and fasting blood glucose than soybean tempeh.

Penambahan inulin terhadap indeks glikemik dan beban glikemik cookies growol: pengembangan makanan selingan diabetes Puspaningtyas, Desty Ervira Nekada, Cornelia D.Y. Sari, Puspita Mardika Teknologi Pangan dan Gizi Cookies; glycemic index; glycemic load; growol; inulin The increasing prevalence and mortality of diabetes require appropriate treatment, one of which is eating arrangements. The snack development for diabetic patients has begun. Previous studies have developed growol, cassava fermented food, into cookies, but growol cookies still have a high glycemic index (GI). Adding inulin to growol cookies is thought to reduce cookies' GI, which will affect the glycemic load (GL). This study examines the effect of adding inulin to the GI and GL of growol cookies. An observational laboratory design was used to assess the GI and GL of modified growol cookies compared to standard foods (glucose). The study was conducted from June to November 2021 and involved 10 healthy subjects. The total area under the curve (IAUC) was used to calculate the GI of modified growol cookies. The GL was obtained by multiplying the GI by the number of available carbohydrates per serving. Independent Sample T-Test was used to analyze IAUC differences between glucose and modified growol cookies with a significant level of 95% (p<0,05). The IAUC for glucose and modified growol cookies was 4830 and 1995, respectively. There was a difference in the IAUC between glucose and modified growol cookies (p= 0,005). Modified growol cookies have a low GI (41) and low GL if consumed as much as 10-40 grams. Based on GI and GL values, modified growol cookies can be used as a snack for people with diabetes.

The impact of spirituality on blood glucose control among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Padangsidimpuan Antoni, Adi AA, Abdullah Hadi, Anto J. Nur, Nur Hamdani Blood glucose control, diabetes mellitus type 2, diabetes management, spiritual care Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic degenerative disease that requires lifelong management. Beyond biological, psychological, and social needs, spirituality is an essential dimension for individuals with chronic conditions. The number of individuals with diabetes in Padangsidimpuan has steadily increased, creating a burden on health services. This study aimed to explore the role of spirituality in the lives of patients with type 2 DM. A qualitative design with a phenomenological approach was applied, involving seven Muslim participants who met the inclusion criteria of no cognitive impairment, diagnosis for at least five years, a minimum bachelor’s education, and the ability to communicate effectively. The study was conducted in Padangsidimpuan from January to February 2025. Data were collected through in-depth interviews using a structured guide and analyzed using Colazzi’s method assisted by Open Code software. Three major themes and seven subthemes emerged: (1) Spirituality as motivation to live with diabetes (lifelong journey, spiritual motivation, acceptance of illness); (2) Nature as God’s creation to relieve problems (healing power of water, nature as divine solution); and (3) Harmonious human relationships to stabilize blood glucose (peace through social interaction, charity for better control). In conclusion, spirituality played a positive role in providing motivation, reinforcing life’s meaning, and fostering harmonious relationships with oneself, others, and the environment, thereby supporting better blood glucose control in patients with DM.

Mobile health-based digital intervention to improve ARV compliance and nutritional intake in PLHIV at Bandarharjo Health Center Winarti, Rahayu Nugraha, Rozaq Isnaini Balurrochman, Iq Setiawan, Nanang Bagus Sukesi, Niken Kesehatan; Gizi; Teknologi Keshatan mHealth, ARV Adherence, HIV/AIDS, Mobile App-Based Adherence Support, Nutrition Monitoring, SEHAT+ Application Low adherence to antiretroviral (ARV) therapy and inadequate nutritional intake remain persistent challenges among People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLHIV) in Indonesia, contributing to suboptimal treatment outcomes and reduced quality of life. Mobile health (mHealth), which utilizes mobile devices for health interventions, offers a promising solution by facilitating personalized, accessible, and continuous patient support. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of an Android-based mHealth application, SEHAT+, in improving ARV adherence and nutritional intake among PLHIV at the Bandarharjo Health Center, Semarang. A total of 41 active PLHIV undergoing ARV therapy were recruited from March to May 2025. Descriptive and paired t-test analyses were conducted to compare adherence and intake before and after the intervention. The mean ARV adherence score increased from 62,3 (SD = 10,5) to 84,9 (SD = 8,1), and the nutritional intake score improved from 58,7 (SD = 11,2) to 79,2 (SD = 9,6), both showing statistically significant changes (p < 0,001). SEHAT+ features included medication reminders, dietary logs, multimedia-based nutrition education, and online consultation forums. The findings indicate that mHealth interventions can significantly enhance both medication compliance and nutritional behavior in PLHIV. Community-driven digital tools such as SEHAT+ have the potential to strengthen primary healthcare responses to HIV/AIDS in resource-constrained settings.

Iron intake and anemia as predictors of preeclampsia risk in pregnant women in the second trimester Arafah, Salmah Dewiyanti, Dewiyanti Ernawati, Ernawati Oktaviana, Dina Kamriana, Kamriana Alwi, Alwi Zainuddin, Zainuddin Syaharani, Nur Hijrah Gizi; gizi klinik;informasi gizi; kesehatan Anemia, Pregnant Women, Preeclampsia, Second Trimester, Iron Preeclampsia remains one of the leading causes of maternal morbidity and mortality worldwide, including in Indonesia. Iron deficiency anemia is considered a modifiable risk factor; however, few studies have specifically examined the relationship between anemia status and iron intake and the risk of preeclampsia during the second trimester of pregnancy. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between anemia status and iron intake and the risk of preeclampsia among second-trimester pregnant women. A cross-sectional analytical design was employed involving 150 pregnant women selected through purposive sampling in the working area of Pattallassang Public Health Center, Takalar Regency, between January and March 2025. Data were collected through hemoglobin level examination, a Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) for iron intake assessment, and medical records for preeclampsia diagnosis. Data were analyzed using chi-square and logistic regression tests to determine the associations and predictive strength. The results showed that 30% of respondents experienced preeclampsia, 42% had anemia, and 64% had an inadequate iron intake. Anemia and inadequate iron intake were significantly associated with an increased risk of preeclampsia (p < 0.05). In conclusion, anemia and iron intake are important predictors of preeclampsia risk, highlighting the need for nutritional screening and early intervention to prevent further complications.

Factors influencing exclusive breastfeeding practice in Sleman, Yogyakarta Dhiya An, Alfun Wahyuni, Alfaina Cahyawati, Fitnaningsih Endang Azzahari, Nurul Izzah Putri, Shobiqo Ramdani Prameswari, Maharani Dyahayu Rosas, Shoofwah Salsabila gizi; kesehatan Exclusive Breastfeeding, Initiation of Early Breastfeed, Knowledge, and Lactation Management The determinant of children’s nutritional problems in Indonesia is exclusive breastfeeding practice. Sleman Regency has a prevalence of stunting that is higher than the target to achieve in 2024, and the number of exclusive breastfeeding coverage is still low. This study aimed to analyze the factors influencing the success of exclusive breastfeeding in Sleman Yogyakarta. Method, analytical cross-sectional research was conducted under the area of Gamping I Community Health Center, Sleman Regency, in June 2023. The participants were selected using a purposive sampling technique. Chi-square analysis was performed to determine the association and odds ratios between the two variables. Results, from the 100 participants who met the inclusion criteria, this study found that three factors that influenced exclusive breastfeeding practice were the history of Initiation of Early Breastfeeding (IEB) (p = 0,001), mothers’ knowledge level (p = 0,000), and mothers’ lactation management skills (p = 0,000). Mothers who previously had IEB, good knowledge, and good lactation management were more likely to exclusively breastfeed, respectively. Conclusions, IEB improves mothers’ confidence and fosters positive perceptions of breastfeeding. Having good knowledge and good lactating management enhances mothers’ ability to handle breastfeeding challenges and prevent breastfeeding dropout before the baby reaches six months of age.  Department of Nutrition at the Health Polytechnic of Aceh, Ministry of Health the Research and Innovation Institute of Muhammadiyah University of Yogyakarta 2024-06-19 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Analytical cross-sectional application/pdf https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/view/1629 10.30867/action.v9i2.1629 AcTion: Aceh Nutrition Journal; Vol 9, No 2 (2024): June; 290-296 2548-5741 2527-3310 10.30867/action.v9i2 eng https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/view/1629/616 https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/downloadSuppFile/1629/1380 https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/downloadSuppFile/1629/1425 https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/downloadSuppFile/1629/1426 https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/downloadSuppFile/1629/1427 https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/downloadSuppFile/1629/1428 Copyright (c) 2024 Alfun Dhiya An, Alfaina Wahyuni, Fitnaningsih Endang Cahyawati, Nurul Izzah Azzahari, Shobiqo Ramdani Putri, Maharani Dyahayu Prameswari, Shoofwah Salsabila Rosas http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0

In addition, short maternal height, as a reflection of past nutritional status, played a role in fetal growth. This study aimed to analyze the association between calcium and zinc intake, maternal height, and the incidence of stunting among children in Bengkulu City. This quantitative study employed a cross-sectional design and was conducted at the Sawah Lebar Primary Health Center, Bengkulu City, from April to May 2024. A total of 77 children aged 6–59 months were selected using simple random sampling. Dietary intake data were obtained through interviews using a semi-FFQ, while nutritional status was assessed using the height-for-age index. Data were analyzed using Pearson’s correlation test. The results showed a significant association between calcium intake (r = 0.636), zinc intake (r = 0.280), and maternal height (r = 0.290) and stunting. In conclusion, the importance of adequate Ca and Zn intake and maternal nutritional status in supporting child growth. Therefore, nutritional interventions should be implemented early, not only for children but also for adolescent girls as future mothers.

The effect of social cognitive theory-based nutrition education via whatsapp on increasing knowledge and behavioral determinants of mothers in Kediri: A quasi-experimental study 'Arifah, Dzakiyyatul Fikrah Baliwati, Yayuk Farida Khomsan, Ali nutrition science; nutrition; community nutrition Behavioral determinants, knowledge, nutrition education, mothers, Social Cognitive Theory, WhatsApp Poor dietary patterns and poor nutritional status increase the risk of morbidity and mortality. Obesity and overweight are major nutritional issues in Kediri. The family environment, particularly the mother's role as a food gatekeeper, is crucial for shaping children's eating habits. This study applies Social Cognitive Theory (SCT), which emphasizes the interaction between individuals, behavior, and the environment. Social media platforms, such as WhatsApp, can be utilized to promote health. This study examined the effect of SCT-based nutrition education via WhatsApp on mothers' knowledge, self-efficacy, self-regulation, family support, and outcome expectations in improving children's dietary intake. A pre-post quasi-experimental design was used with 80 mothers of elementary school children in Kediri City. The intervention group (n=40) received WhatsApp-based nutrition education for 20 days, whereas the control group (n=40) received an e-booklet at the end of the study. Data were analyzed using Spearman’s test, Mann-Whitney test, and Wilcoxon Signed Rank test. The results showed that WhatsApp-based nutrition education significantly improved knowledge (p=0,005) and outcome expectations (p=0,039) in the intervention group, whereas no significant effects were observed on self-efficacy and self-regulation. WhatsApp-based nutrition education effectively increased mothers' knowledge and outcome expectations. Future studies should consider the duration of the intervention, including follow-up assessment, refining educational media, combining educational methods, and considering additional SCT components.

Antioxidant and nitric oxide inhibition activities of myristica fragrans essential oil in RAW 264.7 Cells Nufus, Aulia Rahmatun Sary, Nirwana Lazuardi Husna, Fauzul gizi; kesehatan; teknologi pangan. Myristica fragrans, nitric oxide production, RAW 264.7 cells, cytotoxicity The excessive production of free radicals, such as Nitric Oxide (NO), initiates several diseases. Compounds of nutmeg oil (MFEO) have been reported to exhibit antioxidant activity. This study aimed to evaluate the antioxidant activity, cytotoxicity, and NO inhibitory potential of MFEO. This experimental study was conducted using the MFEO obtained from plantations in South Aceh Regency, Indonesia. The antioxidant activities were tested using the ABTS and FRAP tests, cytotoxicity test used micro-tetrazolium solution and NO production inhibition were carried out on RAW 264.7 cells used Griess Reagent. The IC50 values were determined using linear regression statistical analysis (p<0,05). Results, the IC50 values of MFEO using the ABTS method were 8,400 ppm and 24,949 ppm, respectively, using the FRAP method. These results indicate that MFEO has a very weak antioxidant activity compared to Trolox and ascorbic acid. An MFEO concentration of 250 ppm showed a cell viability of more than 50% (75,57%), and the ability to inhibit NO production began to be shown at an MFEO concentration of 50 ppm (7,5%). The antioxidant activities of MFEO were very weak and MFEO concentrations starting from 50 ppm inhibited NO production, and up to a concentration of 250 ppm, more than 50% viability of RAW 264.7 cell. In conclusion, MFEO needs higher concentrations than Trolox and ascorbic acid for strong antioxidant effects. At lower doses, it remains safe for RAW 264.7 cells and effectively reduces NO production.

Changes in diet quality and risk of hypertension in adults: Evidence from the NCDs cohort study, Bogor, Indonesia Naqiyyah, Salsabil Tanziha, Ikeu Briawan, Dodik Riyadina, Woro kesehatan; gizi; gizi penyakit tidak menular; gizi masyarakat Change in Diet Quality, Cohort, DASH diet, Hypertension, Indonesia The prevalence of hypertension is increasing globally, including in Indonesia. Therefore, dietary patterns such as the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet are recommended to help control blood pressure. However, research on adherence to the DASH diet and its relationship with blood pressure in Indonesia is still limited, especially in long-term cohort studies. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between changes in dietary quality and blood pressure. This study design is a retrospective cohort study used secondary data from the Non-Communicable Disease Risk Factor Cohort Study (FRPTM) conducted in five urban villages in Bogor City from 2011 to 2018, involving 1,724 adult respondents. The analysis was performed using the chi-square test and multiple logistic regression analyses. The results showed no significant relationship between diet quality at baseline, follow-up, or changes in diet quality and the blood pressure. However, individuals with worsening diet quality had a 1.2-fold higher risk of developing hypertension (OR=1.237; 95%CI=0.886–1.727), while those with stable poor diet quality had a 1.3-fold higher risk (OR=1.285; 95%CI=0.905–1.824) than individuals with improved diet quality. In conclusion, these findings suggest that a decline in dietary quality may increase the risk of hypertension.

This study employed a cross-sectional design, involving 114 female factory workers in Pontianak, West Kalimantan, from April to August 2024. Data collection for vitamin D and fiber intake was performed using the SQFFQ, whereas body fat percentage and visceral fat were measured using BIA. Data analysis was performed using Spearman's Rank Correlation test. The results showed that female workers with higher body fat had a lower intake of vitamin D and fiber. There was a significant relationship between vitamin D intake and visceral fat (rs= 0,190; p= 0,022) but no significant relationship with body fat percentage. Fiber intake was weakly inversely correlated with body fat percentage (rs= -0,176; p= 0,030) and visceral fat (rs= -0,176; p= 0,030) in female factory workers. In conclusion, vitamin D intake is positively associated with visceral fat, whereas fiber intake has a weak inverse relationship with body fat percentage and visceral fat in female factory workers in Pontianak. Efforts to increase vitamin D and fiber intake among female factory workers should be made through nutrition education and employee meal programs.

Enhancing anthropometric skills and nutrition counseling through mentoring for adolescent Posbindu cadres Mintarsih, Sri Noor Ambarwati, Ria Ismawanti, Zuhria Sunarto, Sunarto Mardiana, Mardiana Wijayanti, Anggi Ariana Posbindu cadres, knowledge, anthropometric skills, nutrition counseling Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) pose a significant health threat to adolescents, including those in Semarang. The prevalence of NCD risk factors among high school students in Semarang highlights the urgent need for effective intervention. Empowering peer counselors as cadres through the Posbindu program can facilitate early detection of NCD risk factors. However, cadres’ capacities for anthropometry and nutritional counseling remain inadequate. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of a structured mentoring program on enhancing knowledge and skills of adolescent Posbindu cadres in anthropometric measurements and nutrition counseling. This quasi-experimental study used a pretest-posttest control group design. A total of 36 students from grades 11 and 12 in two high schools in Semarang were recruited as cadres. The intervention consisted of lectures, demonstrations, and booklets. Data were collected through questionnaires measuring knowledge, anthropometric skills, and counseling abilities. A multivariate independent t-test was used for the statistical analysis. The mentoring program significantly improved knowledge, anthropometric skills, and counseling performance (p<0,001). Mentoring contributed to a 42% improvement in knowledge, 62% in anthropometric skills, and 64% in counseling abilities. Mentoring is an effective strategy for strengthening the competencies of Posbindu cadres in performing anthropometric assessments and providing nutrition counseling to support the early detection of NCD risk factors among adolescents.

Adequate fruit and vegetable consumption and its association with overnutrition among primary school-aged children Sufyan, Dian Luthfiana Wahyuningsih, Utami Gizi Masyarakat; Gizi; Kesehatan childhood, fiber source, Indonesia, obesity Overnutrition among school-aged children increases substantially over the last decade. Among the direct causes of overweight/obesity is inadequate intake of fruit and vegetable. Prior studies have shown that fruit and vegetable (FV) is not merely the main source of vitamins andminerals, but also playing role on preventing weight gain through satiety regulation. This study aims to determine the association of FV consumption adequacy among 5-12 years schoolers and their overnutrition status. This cross-sectional study was conducted in Jakarta and Depok, carried out on 57 children who filled out an online questionnaire survey. Respondents’ characteristics were obtained through the self-administered online questionnaire. BMI for age z-score (BAZ) was calculated from the self-reported recall of body weight and height. The FV consumption was evaluated using the WHO STEP-wise questionnaire. Respondent’s characteristics were presented in frequency and percentage, while association test was done using Fisher Exact test (CI 95%). In this study, 40,4% of children were overweight and most children did not consume adequate portions of fruit and vegetable (73,7% and 57,9%, respectively). There are no significant association between FV consumption and children’s overnutrition (p= 0,171 and p= 0,788, respectively; CI 95%). Overall, a high proportion of children overnutrition was observed. However, there is no significant association was found between fruit and vegetable consumption and children’s overnutrition. There is a need for specific regulations and practices that may engage children in consuming fruit and vegetable on the daily basis.

Effects of the combination of red dragon fruit, kiwi, and young coconut water on blood pressure through ACE inhibition and antioxidant mechanisms in pre-elderly women: A quasi-experimental study Rifda, Afifah Maigoda, Tonny Cortis Natan, Okdi Krisnasary, Arie Jumiyati, Jumiyati gizi masyarakat; gizi klinik; pangan funsional Blood Pressure, Cocos nucifera, Functional Foods, Hypertension Hypertension is a major health concern among pre-elderly women, particularly those aged ≥45 years, as the hormonal changes associated with menopause exacerbate susceptibility. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of combined red dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus), green kiwi (Actinidia deliciosa), and young coconut water (Cocos nucifera) juice on blood pressure among women aged 45–59 years with prehypertension at the Sawah Lebar Primary Health Center in Bengkulu. A quasi-experimental pretest–posttest design was used with 30 participants in this study. Participants were assigned to the intervention (n=15; 230 mL juice twice daily for 7 days combined with exercise and nutrition counseling) or control (n = 15; counseling only) groups. Blood pressure was measured at baseline and post-intervention. Statistical analyses were performed using paired and independent t-tests (p<0.05) and ANCOVA. The intervention group showed a significant reduction in systolic (137.0±1.81 to 122.47±2.32 mmHg) and diastolic pressures (87.07±1.43 to 81.87±1.50 mmHg) compared with the control group (systolic: 135.87±2.29 to 132.40±2.77 mmHg; diastolic: 87.27±1.22 to 84.87±1.55 mmHg). The high potassium content (1,041.5 mg/serving) may enhance vasodilation, inhibit angiotensin-converting enzyme activity, and reduce sodium retention. Confounders (BMI, sodium intake, and physical activity) contributed <25% of the variance. This functional juice effectively reduced blood pressure, supporting its role in non-pharmacological strategies for hypertension management. Larger and longer trials are required to confirm the long-term benefits.

Dietary non-compliance among Indonesian patients with diabetes and kidney disease: A focus on risk-associated eating behaviors Fachruddin, Ismi Irfiyanti Hardianti, Andi Diabetes Mellitus, Hypertension, Chronic Kidney Disease, Dietary Behavior Chronic illnesses, such as diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension, and chronic kidney disease (CKD), are increasingly prevalent in Indonesia, partly due to poor dietary habits. This study aimed to analyze the association between risky food consumption and the occurrence of hypertension and CKD in individuals with diabetes and to explore the factors influencing unhealthy food choices. This cross-sectional study used data from the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey. The analysis included 14,935 adults diagnosed with diabetes mellitus, of whom 143 were identified as having both hypertension and CKD. Stratified random sampling was applied based on census blocks. Data were collected through structured interviews and health assessments of dietary patterns and a history of chronic illness. Chi-square tests and logistic regression were performed to assess the associations, with p < 0.05 considered significant. Hypertension was significantly associated with CKD (OR, 2.16; 95% CI: 1.68–2.77; p < 0.001). Risky dietary patterns, particularly high intakes of salty foods, processed meats, and sugary beverages, were significantly associated with hypertension. The major drivers of unhealthy food consumption include taste, affordability, and lack of health awareness. Risky food intake contributes to hypertension and CKD in patients with diabetes. Targeted public health interventions are required to improve dietary behavior and raise awareness.

Effect of school-based interactive nutrition promotion on knowledge and attitudes toward the free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG) among junior high school students in West Aceh Duana, Maiza Amiruddin, Amiruddin Nurdin, Ambia Maywati, Sri Saprizal, Saprizal Adolescents, nutrition education, school-based intervention, free nutritious meal program, knowledge, attitude School-based nutrition promotion is essential for improving adolescents’ knowledge and attitudes toward healthy eating and government-supported nutrition programs. However, junior high school students have a limited understanding of and less favorable attitudes toward the Free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG). This study aimed to evaluate the effect of a six-week school-based interactive nutrition promotion intervention integrated into the MBG on students’ knowledge and attitudes in West Aceh, Indonesia. A quasi-experimental pretest–posttest design with a control group was conducted among 277 students in grades VII–IX at the State Junior High School 3 Meulaboh. Participants were selected using proportionate stratified random sampling and assigned to the intervention (n = 140) and control (n = 137) groups. The intervention group received structured interactive nutrition education sessions, whereas the control group received only MBG. Knowledge and attitudes were measured using validated questionnaires, before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank and Mann–Whitney U tests. The results showed significant improvements in knowledge and attitude scores in the intervention group compared to the control group (p < 0.001). Integrating interactive nutrition promotion into school meal programs effectively enhances students’ understanding and attitudes, supporting the educational value and sustainability of the MBG.

The effect of Moringa oleifera L. extract on total cholesterol levels and cardiac hypertrophy in cigarette smoke-exposed mice: An experimental study Rahayu, Mulyati Sri Wahyuni, Sri Gizi; gizi klinik Moringa oleifera L, total cholesterol, cardiac hypertrophy, cigarette smoke Cigarette smoke contains harmful chemicals that induce oxidative stress by increasing the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), thereby complicating cardiovascular disease treatment. Moringa oleifera L., rich in secondary metabolites and antioxidants, has shown medicinal potential. This study aimed to investigate the phytochemical composition of M. oleifera and its potential effects on cardiac hypertrophy and total cholesterol levels in mice exposed to cigarette smoke. Thirty male white mice (Mus musculus) were divided into five groups (n = 6). The negative control group received only food and water, whereas the positive control group was exposed to cigarette smoke without M. oleifera extract. Groups 1, 2, and 3 were exposed to cigarette smoke, and M. oleifera extract was administered at doses of 125, 250, and 500 mg/kg body weight (BW) for 14 days. On the fifteenth day, the mice were sacrificed to obtain heart samples and total cholesterol levels were measured. One-way ANOVA followed by a post-hoc test showed that M. oleifera extract significantly affected cardiac hypertrophy and total cholesterol levels in mice exposed to cigarette smoke (p < 0,05). M. oleifera extract significantly affected cardiac hypertrophy and total cholesterol levels in rats exposed to cigarette smoke with p =0,001 and p=0,000, respectively.

Narrative review: Ultra-processed foods and the risk of metabolic syndrome Kinasih, Prananingrum Jannah, Miftahul ilmu gizi; gizi masyarakat; kesehatan metabolic syndrome, NOVA classification, ultra-processed food Ultra-processed foods generally contain high levels of energy, sugar, sodium, and saturated fat, and low levels of fiber and micronutrients. Excessive consumption of ultra-processed foods can potentially trigger metabolic dysfunction via inflammatory pathways, insulin resistance, and lipid homeostasis disorders. This study aimed to review the scientific evidence regarding the relationship between ultra-processed food consumption and the risk of metabolic syndrome. This narrative literature review was conducted using a systematic search of the PubMed and ScienceDirect databases (2020–2025). The inclusion criteria were observational studies on related topics, articles in English, and full texts, while the exclusion criteria were studies on animals/cell cultures and non-full-text articles. The results of this study showed a consistent relationship between UPF consumption and an increased risk of metabolic syndrome. Individuals in the highest quartile of UPF consumption were 3.27 times more likely to develop metabolic syndrome (OR=3.27; 95% CI: 2.76–3.89; p<0.001). Additionally, high UPF consumption was associated with increased weight, BMI, waist circumference, blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, HbA1c levels, and triglyceride levels. In conclusion, high UPF consumption consistently increases the risk of metabolic syndrome; therefore, limiting UPF and improving the diet may be a preventive strategy.

Effectiveness of local sago and moringa leaf based complementary foods and maternal nutrition education in preventing stunting in North Aceh Sari, Dian Vita Fatmawati, Fatmawati Junaedy, Junaedy gizi; kesehatan Stunting; Local Complementary Feeding; Sago; Moringa Leaves; Nutrition Education Malnutrition remains a global challenge with far-reaching health and developmental implications. Indonesia continues to experience a high prevalence of stunting, reaching 31.8%, which highlights the need for effective and sustainable interventions. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a locally based intervention utilizing Metroxylon sp. (aren sago) and Moringa oleifera (moringa leaves) as complementary food additives combined with maternal nutrition education in reducing stunting. A quasi-experimental study was conducted in North Aceh in July 2025, involving 128 mothers and their stunted children aged 6–24 months old. The intervention consisted of nutrition education on complementary foods made with sago and moringa leaves, delivered through modules and videos, along with a four-week provision of complementary foods. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The findings demonstrated a significant improvement in the nutritional status of children, with the proportion classified as having a good nutritional status increasing from 43.0% to 84.4%, and no cases of severe malnutrition were identified (p < 0.05). Maternal nutrition knowledge also improved, with 35.2% achieving a “good” score (p < 0.05). In conclusion, locally sourced food-based interventions combined with nutrition education effectively improve children’s nutritional status and strengthen maternal knowledge. This approach is recommended as a contextual and sustainable strategy for stunting prevention Department of Nutrition at the Health Polytechnic of Aceh, Ministry of Health 2025-12-14 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Quasi-Experimental application/pdf https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/view/2950 10.30867/action.v10i4.2950 AcTion: Aceh Nutrition Journal; Vol 10, No 4 (2025): December; 1067-1073 2548-5741 2527-3310 10.30867/action.v10i4 eng https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/view/2950/994 https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/downloadSuppFile/2950/3107 https://ejournal.poltekkesaceh.ac.id/index.php/an/article/downloadSuppFile/2950/3134 Copyright (c) 2025 Dian Vita Sari, Fatmawati, Junaedy http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0

Stres dan depresi berkaitan dengan emotional eating dan mindful eating pada mahasiswa saat pandemi Covid-19 Fayasari, Adhila Lestari, Putri Winda gizi; kesehatan; perilaku gizi; perilaku makan Covid-19; depression; emotional eating; mindful eating Covid-19, which has spread rapidly around the world, has resulted in changes in people's life activities because the government carried out large-scale restrictions to stop the spread of the virus. The increase in eating behavior results from changes in mental health during the Covid-19 pandemic, especially in students. This study aims to analyze the relationship between stress, depression, and anxiety with emotional eating and mindful eating in college students during the Covid19 pandemic. Many students experience emotional eating and are very emotional eaters. This research was conducted in September-October 2020 on 303 student subjects using the accidental sampling technique. Research data were obtained through questionnaires distributed online. The questionnaire consisted of characteristic data, changes in body weight and eating behavior, a modified DASS-21 questionnaire to measure stress, depression, and anxiety, EEQ (Emotional eating Questionnaire), and MEQ (Mindful eating Questionnaire). The data were processed univariately in frequency and percentage and bivariate analysis with an Ordinal Spearman Correlation with an error rate of 5%. In college students, stress, depression, and anxiety are relatively high, especially at the severe stage. Stress and depression were significantly related to mindful eating (p<0,05) but not to anxiety (p>0,05). The more stressed and depressed students tend to experience non-mindful eating.

Effectiveness of storytelling and roleplay in improving oral hygiene knowledge and supporting nutritional health among elementary school students: A quasy experimental study Warman, Anses Arnetty, Arnetty Ifitri, Ika Dinanti, Fadila Rahmat Amiruddin, Amiruddin Zurianti, Renita Eka Kesehatan; Gizi Masyarakat Oral hygiene, knowledge, nutritional health, roleplay, storytelling Poor oral hygiene among school-aged children can compromise food intake and contribute to nutritional problems including stunting, wasting, and underweight. However, few studies have explored active learning methods that integrate oral health education with its nutritional implications. This study evaluated the effectiveness of storytelling and roleplay in improving oral hygiene knowledge and their potential relevance to nutritional health promotion. A true experimental study with a pretest-posttest design on two intervention groups was conducted in December 2024 at State Elementary School 23, Kubang Putiah, Agam Regency, West Sumatra. Thirty-six students in grades III and IV were randomly assigned to either the storytelling or roleplay groups. Both groups received one week of structured counseling. Instrument validity and reliability were confirmed through expert review and Cronbach’s alpha testing (α > 0,80). Paired and independent t-tests were used at the 95% confidence level. Results indicated significant post-intervention knowledge gains in both groups (p < 0,001), with the roleplay group achieving a greater mean improvement (27,8 ± 1,77) than the storytelling group (19,5 ± 2,60; p < 0,001).

Stress level and emotional eating in obese and non-obese adolescents Wardani, Hajar Surya Sapja Anatayu, Sapja Febrinasari, Ratih Puspita gizi; gizi masyarakat; kesehatan; Stress, Emotional Eating, Obese, Non-Obese, Adolescents The association between stress factors and emotional eating can contribute to the development of obesity. Boredom, stress, anxiety, and depression can lead to emotional eating, which involves the consumption of food to cope with negative emotions. Emotional eating often involves the consumption of high-calorie, comfortable foods that can contribute to weight gain. This study aimed to analyze the differences in stress levels and emotional eating between obese and non-obese adolescents. This research was conducted in May 2023 using an observational case-control study comparing obese and non-obese adolescents in a special region of Yogyakarta. A total of 139 respondents who attended this study were selected using multistage random sampling. Stress levels were measured using the Perceived Stress Scale-10 (PSS-10) questionnaire and emotional eating was assessed using the Emotional Eater Questionnaire (EEQ). Data were collected and analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test. Results: Most respondents had high stress levels (49,6%) and low emotional eaters (43,9%). There were differences in stress levels (p=0,004) and emotional eating (p=0,000) between the obese and non-obese adolescents. Conclusions, stress levels and emotional eating were different in obese and non-obese adolescents.

Central obesity and its association with metabolic syndrome in adolescent students of Aceh Sport High School: A cross-sectional study Nadia, Nurul Dimiati, Herlina Amna, Eka Yunita Andid, Rusdi Sovira, Nora Thaib, T.M. Gizi Central obesity, metabolic syndrome, adolescents, sport students Obesity remains a significant nutritional issue in the pediatric population and is closely linked to metabolic disorders. According to the World Health Organization (2022), 160 million individuals aged 5–19 years are classified as obese.  This study aimed to evaluate the association between central obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) in sports students. This cross-sectional study was conducted at Aceh Sports High School from May to August 2024, involving 43 students selected through simple random sampling. Although the sample size was relatively small, these findings offer valuable preliminary insights. The data collected included demographics, anthropometric measurements, blood pressure, and blood tests (glucose, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides). Central obesity was assessed using waist circumference and MS was evaluated based on the NCEP ATP III criteria. Data were analyzed descriptively, followed by the chi-square test. The majority of the participants were not at risk of MS (51,2%). However, chi-square analysis revealed a statistically significant association between waist circumference and MetS (p<0,001, OR = 3,75 95% CI = 2,072– 6,788). In conclusion, while most participants were not at risk of MetS, central obesity emerged as a strong predictor. These findings underscore the need for early screening and intervention, even in physically active adolescents.

Dietary pattern and gut microbiota in type 2 diabetes mellitus: A literature review Putri, Martha Pitaloka Lestari, Endang Sri Afifah, Diana Nur Gizi Masyarakat; Gizi; Kesehatan Diabetes mellitus, Gut microbiota, Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Dietary pattern Nutrition has been identified as the primary modifiable factor, and the type of food, macronutrients, and micronutrient composition of the diet have distinct effects on gut microbiota and related metabolites. These effects significantly influence the mechanisms that regulate hyperglycemia and insulin resistance, influencing gut microbiota remodeling and the development of T2DM. This study aimed to gather information on changes in gut microbiota composition (Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium) and describe the beneficial or detrimental effects, impacts, and outcomes of macronutrients (carbohydrate, protein, and fat) and fiber on gut microbiota composition in T2DM. Nine English articles were obtained from the literature review. Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium can positively reduce the blood glucose levels. Changes in the gut microbiota and its metabolites, which are influenced by carbohydrate, protein, lipid, and fiber intake, can worsen or decrease biochemical parameters and improve T2DM complications. The conclusion of this literature review is that gut microbiota  can be crucial in the future treatment of diabetes mellitus, especially in combination with other therapeutic options.

Protective effect of Diadema setosum gonad extract against oxidative stress in D-Galactose-induced aging rats Gama, Arlina Wiyata As'ad, Suryani Alam, Gemini Eragradini, Athirah Rinandha gizi klinik; informasi kesehatan Aging, D-galactose model, Diadema setosum, marine bioactive compound, oxidative stress Oxidative stress is a primary mechanism of aging and is characterized by elevated levels of malondialdehyde (MDA). Natural antioxidants are being increasingly explored for the prevention of premature aging. The gonads of the sea urchin Diadema setosum contain bioactive compounds, including omega-3 fatty acids, flavonoids, and phenolics, which possess unique ecological adaptations that enhance secondary metabolite production, making them a promising marine antioxidant source. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of D. setosum gonad extract on MDA levels in male Wistar rats undergoing d-galactose-induced aging. An experimental post-test control group design was conducted from July to November 2024, involving 24 rats divided into four groups: standard control (K1), positive control (K2), and two treatment groups receiving extracts at doses of 100 mg/kg (P1) and 300 mg/kg (P2). D-galactose was used for aging at 150 mg/kg body weight for eight weeks, followed by oral administration of the extract for an additional eight weeks. MDA levels were measured using ELISA at weeks 0, 6, 10, and 14. The results showed a significant increase in MDA levels in the positive control group (K2) compared to the normal group (p=0.002), indicating oxidative stress induction. In contrast, treatment with D. setosum gonad extract, particularly in the P2 group, significantly reduced MDA levels (p<0.05), approaching those of the normal group. In conclusion, D. setosum gonad extract has potential as a natural antioxidant for suppressing oxidative stress associated with aging.

Effect of SOYDRA pudding (soybean and red dragon fruit) on blood pressure in patients with hypertension Ummah, Annisa Khaira Syauqy, Ahmad Afifah, Diana Nur gizi klinik Hypertension, SOYDRA pudding, blood pressure, soy milk, red dragon fruit Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and remains the leading cause of mortality globally. Non-pharmacological interventions using local functional foods are promising alternatives for blood pressure management. SOYDRA pudding, a novel combination of soymilk and red dragon fruit, contains bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, isoflavones, and dietary fiber, which are known to have antihypertensive properties. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of SOYDRA pudding as a dietary intervention on blood pressure in patients with grade 1 hypertension. A randomized crossover trial was conducted from September to November 2024 at the outpatient clinic of the Arosuka Hospital, West Sumatra. Thirty-two participants aged 40–60 years with grade 1 hypertension were included in this study. The intervention consisted of consuming SOYDRA puddings twice daily (2 × 150 g/day) along with nutritional education over a 30-day period. Blood pressure measurements were performed before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the dependent t-test and Wilcoxon test. Results, there was a statistically significant reduction in systolic blood pressure from 146,3 ± 6,2 mmHg to 132,5 ± 5,9 mmHg (p = 0,000) and in diastolic blood pressure from 92,7 ± 4,8 mmHg to 84,1 ± 4,2 mmHg (p = 0,000) after the 30-day intervention. In conclusion, the administration of the SOYDRA pudding at a dose of 2 × 150 g/day for 30 days significantly reduced both systolic and diastolic blood pressure in patients with hypertension. These findings highlight the potential of functional food-based dietary strategies in non-pharmacological hypertension management.

Effectiveness of peer education based on social cognitive theory in preventing anemia among adolescent girls at the State Senior High School 1 Kebomas Gresik Ariestiningsih, Eka Srirahayu Syarifah Has, Dwi Faqihatus Kurniawan, Bhagaskoro Ardhianto Yuliati, Luluk Yuliati Laurita, Hilda Putri Arifani, Maghfiratun Nisa gizi;kesehatan;anemia;remaja;edukasi Adolescent Girls, anemia, behavior change, knowledge, peer education Anemia remains a significant global public health issue, particularly among adolescent girls. In Indonesia, 48,9% of adolescent girls were anemic in 2018, and East Java reported a prevalence of 42% in 2020. Contributing factors include poor nutrition, unhealthy dietary habits, and low awareness of anemia prevention. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of peer education in enhancing adolescents’ knowledge and awareness of anemia prevention and analyze its behavioral impact based on Social Cognitive Theory (SCT). A mixed-method approach with an explanatory sequential design was employed. Quantitative data were collected from 110 students (grades X and XI) at the State Senior High School 1 Kebomas Gresik between March and April 2025, using pre- and post-tests (20 items) and a validated SCT-based questionnaire (15 items, r = 0,847). Qualitative insights were obtained through in-depth interviews with peer educators, guided by five key SCT-based questions. Statistical analyses included paired t-tests or Wilcoxon tests for knowledge improvement and SEM-PLS for behavioral correlations. Post-intervention results showed a significant increase in knowledge (mean score: 75,06 to 95,28) with a moderate yet significant correlation (r= 0,494; p= 0,000). In conclusion, peer education grounded in SCT proved effective in promoting knowledge transfer and behavioral change, supporting its use as a health education strategy for adolescents.
