This activity restriction has an impact on the decline in the socioeconomic conditions of the community, especially in vulnerable communities such as farmers/fishermen/laborers who do not have a fixed income. Therefore, the government, both at the National and regional levels, has issued various policies to deal with the spread of COVID-19 as well as policies to mitigate the social and economic impacts of this pandemic. The purpose of this analysis is to see the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on households of farmers/fishermen/laborers who have children under five by conducting further analysis of the 2020 Nutritional Status Determinant Survey (SDSG) data. The number of respondents being analyzed is 6,866 households of farmers/fishermen/laborers. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the head of the family stated that they were economically less able to meet family needs (60.7%), had less income (80.9%), had more difficulty buying family food (63.8%), and had received social assistance from the government in the form of cash (57.4%). The consumption patterns for staple foods, where rice is still consumed by 99.6 percent of households, for the most consumed sources of protein, are fish (78.4%) and eggs (70.6%). Under-five children who did not access health services when sick were 46.7% for reason that they were not seriously ill so they did not need treatment (75.3%) and 17.9% did not or delaying the provision of basic immunization because of forgetting (18.2). Posyandu is the most visited health facility for basic immunization services and growth monitoring.

To achieve this, it is necessary to fulfill nutrition and family support so children can grow and develop optimally. Many factors some children are born with abnormal nutritional statuses such as low birth weight (LBW) and short birth length (SBL). The purpose of this study was to determine what factors can make children born with LBW and SBL achieve optimal growth. The research was conducted in September 2019 on a sample of a cohort study of child growth and development in the city of Bogor. Samples were taken purposively based on inclusion criteria for in-depth interviews by researchers with the sample parents to explore information related to consumption, morbidity, and parenting. The results obtained from the interview were that most children were given breast milk but not up to 6 months (exclusive breastfeeding) and were given formula milk as a substitute. Based on the morbidity of the child, only minor illnesses such as flu and cough. The availability of food in the family is good so it supports consuming nutritious food, while for the parenting style, most of the children are directly cared for by the mother. This study concludes that children will be able to catch up with growth from abnormal (LBW and SBL) to normal by paying attention to consumption, food availability, parenting patterns, and good children's stimulation.

In terms of nutrition, WHO expects TB research conducted nationwide to provide scientific evidence that all important tuberculosis patients are assessed nutritional status and given nutritional counseling in all health facilities. The aims of this study were to identify nutrient intake and blood micronutrients level of TB patients before and after 2 months of therapy with nutritional counseling. The one-group pre-post test study was conducted in 10 Puskesmas in Bogor District in 85 pulmonary tuberculosis patients aged 15-55 years. Primary data were collected through interviews, anthropometric measurements and laboratory examinations. BTA test showed that 49.1 percent of the patient has BTA 1 positive. After intensive therapy with nutritional counseling, macro and micronutrient intake are different than those of before therapy (p <0.05). Retinol, selenium, vitamin D and vitamin E levels in the blood are also different (p <0.05). This change is possible caused by nutritional counseling provided.

The highest proportion of underweight children aged 24-35 months (18.9%) and 36-47 months (18.2%), male (17.6%), living in rural areas (18.8%) from the Nusa Tenggara region (26.4%) and had a history of diarrhoeal disease (19.7%). The results of multivariate analysis showed, risk of underweight among children who lived in urban and rural areas was almost the same, which is from the age group 24-35 months (AOR=2.19; 95% CI=1.93-2.50) and (AOR=1.99; 95%CI=1.76–2.26); male (AOR=1.18; 95%CI=1.66–2.15) and (AOR=1.18; 95%CI=1.12-1.24); from the Nusa Tenggara region (AOR =1.89; 95%CI = 1.66-2.15) a...

This study aims to measure the prevalence of stunting and determine its sociodemography risk factors in Indonesia. This study was a nationwide survey in 514 districts consisting of 32,000 census blocks (320,000 households). The study design was cross-sectional. The population of this study was all families of children under five in all districts in Indonesia. The sample was households with children under five which were visited by Susenas (National Sociodemographic Survey) in March 2019. The data collected were the length/height of children under-five of age, gender, age (months), region (rural and urban), all provinces which were divided into 7 regions. (Java-Bali, Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Nusa Tenggara, Maluku, Papua), and diarrhea. The results showed that the prevalence of stunting in children under five (0-59 months) was 27.6 percent.

The iron supplement program, known as Tablet Tambah Darah (Blood Add Tablet) has not yet produced optimal results. This study aimed to identify the cause of anaemia and the factors that influence it. Biochemical indicator data are haemoglobin (Hb), C-reactive protein (CRP), ferritin and serum transferrin receptor (sTfR) from 9,463 women of reproduction age. Data from the Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) project of 2013 were used for the study. ANOVA as well as global and local regression approaches (classical regression and geo-weighted regression) were used to compare the mean Hb and CRP values between provinces and to determine the factors that influence Hb concentrations. The results showed that the distribution of anaemia in Indonesia is uneven and not always caused by iron deficiency. The lowest Hb mean coupled with the highest iron deficiency was found in Papua, where there are high rates of parasitic infections. In contr...
