| Summary: | <p>Abstrak<br />Latar belakang:Gizi kurang dengan berbagai penyebab merupakan penyebab utama angka kesakitan dan kematian di antara anak-anak di negara berkembang. Studi ini meneliti beberapa faktor risiko terhadap <br />gizi kurang pada anak berumur 24-59 bulan di Provinsi Jambi. Metode:Analisis menggunakan sebagian data Riset Kesehatan Dasar (Riskesdas) 2007 di Provinsi Jambi di antara anak berumur 24-59 bulan. Status gizi kurang dihitung menggunakan software WHO Anthro 2009 dengan batas nilai Z < –2 SD. Status gizi ibu dinilai dengan indeks massa tubuh berdasarkan WHO. Tingkat sosial ekonomi berdasarkan median pendapatan per kapita. Regresi Cox digunakan untuk menganalisis faktor determinan status gizi kurang. Hasil:Proporsi anak dengan gizi kurang sebesar 26,9% (206/766). Dibandingkan ibu dengan status gizi normal, <br />ibu yang kurus berisiko 20% lebih memiliki anak berat badan kurang [risiko relatif suaian (RRa) = 1,20; 95% interval kepercayaan (CI) = 0,88-1,65; P = 0,250]. Namun, ibu dengan kelebihan berat badan memiliki risiko 46% lebih rendah untuk memiliki anak kurang berat badan (RRa = 0,54; P = 0,003). Pekerjaan ayah dan status <br />sosial ekonomi keluarga, ayah yang tidak mempunyai pekerjaan atau memiliki status sosial ekonomi keluarga yang rendah masing-masing berisiko 37% dan 42% lebih besar memiliki anak kurang berat badan. Anak-anak yang memiliki sumber air yang buruk memiliki risiko 22% lebih tinggi untuk kurang berat badan. Kesimpulan:Ibu dengan status gizi kurang mempunyai risiko yang lebih besar memiliki anak gizi kurang. <br />Sebaliknya, ibu kelebihan berat badan memiliki risiko yang lebih rendah untuk memiliki anak gizi kurang.

This study examined several risk factors related to underweight among children <br />aged 24-59 months in province of Jambi in Indonesia. Methods: This analysis used a part of Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) 2007 data in the province of Jambi in Indonesia among children aged 24-59 months. Underweight status calculation used WHO Anthro 2009 software based on weight for age indicator with limit value of Z < - 2 SD. Mother nutritional status was evaluated by body mass index (kg/m2) based on WHO category. Family socio-economic status was categorized by median of <br />per capita income. Cox regression was used to analysis determinant factors of underweight. Results: The proportion of underweight children was 26.9% (206/766). Compared with normal nutritional status of the mother, the underweight mother had 20% more risk to have underweight children [adjusted relative risk (RRa) = 1.20; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.88-1.65; P = 0.250). However, children of overweight mother had 46% lower risk to have underweight children (RRa = 0.54; P = 0.003). In term of father’s occupation and family socioeconomic status, children with unemployed father or low family socioeconomic status had 37% (RRa = 1.37; P= 0.030) and 42% (RRa = 1.42; P = 0.004) higher risk to have underweight children, respectively. Children who had poor water source had 22% higher risk to be underweight. Conclusion: Underweight mothers had more risk to be underweight children; however, overweight <br />mothers had lower risk to have underweight children.
