Asupan protein, kalsium dan fosfor pada anak stunting dan tidak stunting usia 24-59 bulan
Abstract: Indonesia is one of
developing country which still facing a serious problem concerning stunting.
Causes of stunting is a complex things, one of the cause is protein intake
which is have effect on the level plasma insulin growth factor I (IGF-I),
protein bone matrix and growth factor, also calcium and phosphorus that has an
important role in bone formation. One of the province in Indonesia which has
stunting prevalence above level of National prevalence is West Borneo.
Pontianak as the capital city of West Borneo is still facing serious problem
concerning stunting and the low level of food security.
Objective: Analyze protein, calcium and phosphorus intake of stunting and
non stunting children aged 24-49 months in Pontianak.
Method: The study was an analytical observational with cross sectional
design. Samples of the study were children aged 24-59 months in the districts
of East Pontianak and North Pontianak, West Borneo, as much as 90 samples have
been chosen by using simple random sampling technique. The research was
conducted from July - August 2015. Statistical analysis was performed by using
chi square and t-test.
Results: Protein, calcium and phosphorus intake are lower to the stunting
compare to non stunting children (p<0,05). Stunting prevalence of lower protein group is higher 1,87 times than
adequate protein intake group. Stunting prevalence of low calcium intake group
is higher 3,625 times than adequate calcium intake group. Moreover, the stunting
prevalence of low phosphor intake group is higher 2,29 times than adequate
phosphor intake group.
Conclusion: Protein, calcium and phosphor intake significant lower to the
stunting compare to non stunting children aged 24- 59 months in Pontianak.
