CORRELATION BETWEEN LBW HISTORY AND STUNTING INCIDENCE: A LITERATURE REVIEW

2023-08-18T14:01:55+07:00

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.

BINAHONG [Anredera cordifolia (Tenore) Steenis] LEAF INFUSA FOR SUTURE WOUND INFECTION CONVALESCENCE

2023-09-19T20:47:37+07:00

Background: Postpartum infections are the top 4 main causes of the high maternal mortality rate in Indonesia at 2022 of 183 per 100,000 live births. Efforts to prevent complications due to infection of puerperal suture wounds with pharmacological therapy using antibiotics and antiseptics, as well as non-pharmacological ones using plant extracts. Binahong is believed to contain flavonoids, terpenoids, saponins, tannins, essential oils, and alkaloids, which are especially useful in healing wound infections. The aim of the study was to determine the effectiveness of infusion of binahong leaves (Anredera cordifolia (Tenore) Steenis) on the healing of suture wound infections in rats (Rattus norvegicus) experimental animals. Method: The research method was a true-experimental posttest only control group design, the study was conducted from June to August 2023 at the Microbiology and Pharmacology Laboratory of Muhammadiyah Sidoarjo University, the research variables were binahong leaf infusion and healing of suture infection, assessment and data collection using the REEDA scale instrument, statistical analysis with the one-way ANOVA, and post-hoc follow-up tests. Result: The results showed p <0.05, so there was a significant effect of giving binahong leaf infusion on the healing of suture wound infections. In terms of the difference in the mean value and the results of the post-hoc significant difference test, it appears that the 5% binahong leaf infusion group showed the most effective results in healing suture wound infections and was significantly different from the negative control group with less effective healing of suture infections. Conclusion : This is in line with research that states that the group given a 5% concentration of binahong extract was more effective than the group with a higher concentration. Thus, administration of a 5% concentration of binahong leaf infusion can be an alternative for healing suture wound infections due to the important content in it in the form of flavonoids, terpenoids, saponins, tannins, essential oils, and alkaloids. Further research is needed with lower concentrations of binahong leaf infusion to find out the minimum concentration that can have a good effect on the convalescence of suture wound infections.
