ABSTRACTBackground: Nutritional problems among school-age children remain a public health concern, including stunting and obesity. These conditions are influenced by low levels of nutrition knowledge and attitudes, particularly regarding the concept of food triguna. The limited availability of engaging and age-appropriate nutrition education media may hinder children’s understanding of healthy food choices.Objectives: This study aimed to identify the effectiveness of food triguna education using the Nutrition Match as an educational media on the knowledge and attitudes of students at SD Negeri 101 Palembang City.Methods: This study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental pretest–posttest kontrol group design. Proportional Stratified Random Sampling technique was used to select the study participants. The total number of respondents was 72 students aged 9-14 years, who were divided into an experimental group and a kontrol group, each consisting of 36 students. The normality test was conducted using the Shapiro-Wilk test. The knowledge data in the experimental group were normally distributed therefore, the Paired T Test was used. Meanwhile, the knowledge data in the kontrol group and the attitude data in both groups were not normally distributed, so they were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Rank Test. Differences between groups were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test.Results: The results of the Paired T Test and Wilcoxon Rank Test showed significant differences in knowledge and attitude scores within each group (p value = 0.001). Based on the Mann-Whitney test between the experimental and kontrol groups, there was a significant difference in the effect of the Nutrition Match media and leaflet media on knowledge (p value = 0.018) and attitudes (p value = 0.001) among school children at SD Negeri 101 Palembang City.Conclusion: The conclusion is that the Nutrition Match media is more effective in improving school children’s knowledge and attitudes regarding the food triguna compared to leafet media.Keywords: School-aged children; nutrition match; knowledge; attitude; food triguna ABSTRAKLatar belakang: Permasalahan gizi pada anak usia sekolah merupakan isu kesehatan masyarakat yang masih banyak ditemukan, seperti stunting dan obesitas.

ABSTRACTBackground: Climate change increases the vulnerability of coastal food systems through declining capture fisheries productivity, fluctuating fish catches, and unstable fisher’s incomes. These conditions affect all dimensions of food security. Indonesia, however, has considerable potential for aquaculture development and aquatic food diversification as adaptation strategies to climate change.Objective: This article aimed to analyze the role of aquaculture and aquatic food diversification in achieving food security dimensions among coastal communities amid climate change.Method: This study used a narrative review approach by conducting literature searches through Scopus and Google Scholar databases. Scientific articles and reports published between 2015 and 2025 were selected based on their relevance to aquaculture, fish-based food diversification, coastal food security, and climate change.Discussion: The review indicates that aquaculture contributes to food security by providing a more stable supply of aquatic foods throughout the year, livelihood diversification for coastal communities, facilitating access to aquatic foods, increasing household purchasing power, contributing to the stability of fish prices in the market, providing high-quality protein and essential micronutrients that support public health. Furthermore, food diversification based on aquatic commodities contributes to extending shelf life, reducing post-harvest losses, increasing commodity added value, improving access to food, supporting women’s empowerment and household livelihoods, enhancing fish acceptability, and potentially reducing the risk of nutrient deficiencies and malnutrition.Conclusion: Aquaculture and food diversification based on aquatic commodities have the potential to support all dimensions of food security among coastal communities while serving as an adaptive strategies to mitigate the impacts of climate change.Keywords: Aquaculture; food diversification; food security; coastal communities; climate change ABSTRAKLatar belakang : Perubahan iklim meningkatkan kerentanan sistem pangan masyarakat pesisir melalui penurunan produktivitas perikanan tangkap, fluktuasi hasil tangkapan, dan ketidakstabilan pendapatan nelayan. Kondisi tersebut berdampak pada seluruh dimensi ketahanan pangan. Di sisi lain, Indonesia memiliki potensi besar dalam pengembangan akuakultur dan diversifikasi pangan berbasis komoditas akuatik sebagai strategi adaptasi terhadap krisis iklim.Tujuan : Artikel ini bertujuan menganalisis peran akuakultur dan diversifikasi pangan berbasis komoditas akuatik dalam memperkuat dimensi ketahanan pangan masyarakat pesisir di tengah perubahan iklim.Metode : Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan narrative review dengan penelusuran literatur melalui basis data Scopus dan Google Scholar terhadap artikel ilmiah dan laporan organisasi internasional yang dipublikasikan pada tahun 2015–2025. Literatur dipilih berdasarkan relevansi dengan akuakultur, diversifikasi pangan berbasis hasil perikanan, ketahanan pangan masyarakat pesisir, dan perubahan iklim.Pembahasan : Akuakultur berkontribusi terhadap ketahanan pangan dengan menyediakan pasokan ikan yang lebih stabil sepanjang tahun dan diversifikasi mata pencaharian bagi masyarakat pesisir, memudahkan akses ke pangan akuatik, meningkatkan daya beli keluarga, dan menjaga kestabilan harga komoditas akuatik, menyediakan produk akuatik mengandung protein berkualitas tinggi dan berbagai zat gizi mikro penting yang mendukung kesehatan masyarakat. Selain itu, diversifikasi pangan berbasis hasil perikanan berperan dalam memperpanjang umur simpan produk, mengurangi kehilangan pascapanen, meningkatkan nilai tambah komoditas, memperluas akses, meningkatkan pemberdayaan wanita, perekonomian keluarga, daya terima dan konsumsi ikan, dan berpotensi mencegah defisiensi zat gizi dan masalah gizi.Kesimpulan : Akuakultur dan diversifikasi pangan berbasis komoditas akuatik berpotensi mendukung berbagai dimensi ketahanan pangan masyarakat pesisir sekaligus sebagai strategi adaptasi terhadap dampak dari perubahan iklim.

ABSTRACTBackground: Obesity is a global health crisis underpinned by a complex interplay between genetics and environment. The β2-adrenergic receptor gene (ADRB2), a key regulator of lipolysis and energy expenditure, is a strong candidate for obesity susceptibility. The ADRB2 Gln27Glu (rs1042714) polymorphism has been widely studied, but its association with obesity and metabolic traits remains controversial, with contradictory findings across the literature.Objectives: This narrative review aims to summarize and critically analyze the scientific literature regarding the ADRB2 rs1042714 variant. Methods: A narrative literature review was conducted using the Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and PubMed databases. Inclusion criteria selected primary research articles published in English that investigated the association between ADRB2 rs1042714, obesity, body composition, and interactions with diet or physical activity.Results: The literature review confirms a profound lack of consensus. Some studies associate the Glu27 (G allele) with increased obesity risk, while others associate the Gln27 (C allele) with risk or find the G allele to be protective. These discrepancies are largely explained by three factors: 1) Ethnicity; 2) Gen-diet interaction; and 3) Gene-exercise interaction.Conclusion: The ADRB2 Gln27Glu polymorphism is not a deterministic factor for obesity. Its association with adiposity is highly context-dependent, critically modulated by genetic ancestry, dietary macronutrient composition, and physical activity levels. The contradictions in the literature highlight the necessity of moving from simple association studies to more nuanced gene-environment interaction models to understand the variant's true clinical relevance.Keywords: ADRB2; rs1042714; Gln27Glu; obesity; lipolysis
ABSTRACTBackground: Stunting remains a major nutritional problem in Indonesia, particularly among children aged 6-24 months who are in the critical period of the first 1,000 days of life. Stunting prevention programs have largely focused on mothers and children, whereas father involvement also contributes to child feeding practices and caregiving.Objective: The study aims to analyze the role of father involvement in preventing stunting among children aged 6-24 months through a literature review.Methods: The study applied a narrative literature review approach. Literature searches were conducted in PubMed and Google Scholar with a publication range from 2022-2026. A total of five primary studies met the inclusion criteria and examined father involvement in childcare, child feeding practices, and their association with children’s nutritional status. Data analysis used thematic synthesis based on similarities in variables and key findings.Results: Father involvement includes financial, emotional, and educational support, as well as direct participation in childcare. During the age period of 6-24 months, father involvement is particularly related to support for complementary feeding practices, the provision of nutritious foods, and monitoring children’s dietary patterns and growth. Father participation in caregiving practices also increases the utilization of child health services and strengthens family adherence to health workers’ recommendations, thereby supporting optimal linear growth in children.Conclusion: Father involvement plays an important role in preventing stunting among children aged 6-24 months. Stunting prevention programs should strengthen family education, community support, and policies that encourage active father participation in childcare.Keywords : Father Involvement; Stunting Prevention; Child Care; Child Nutrition; Children Aged 6-24 Months ABSTRAKLatar belakang: Stunting masih menjadi masalah gizi utama di Indonesia, terutama pada anak usia 6-24 bulan yang berada pada periode kritis 1.000 Hari Pertama Kehidupan (HPK). Upaya pencegahan stunting selama ini lebih banyak menekankan peran ibu dan anak, padahal keterlibatan ayah juga berkontribusi terhadap praktik pemenuhan gizi dan pengasuhan anak.Tujuan: Penelitian bertujuan menganalisis peran keterlibatan ayah dalam pencegahan stunting pada anak usia 6-24 bulan melalui tinjauan literatur.Metode: Penelitian menggunakan metode literature review dengan pendekatan naratif. Penelusuran literatur dilakukan pada basis data PubMed dan Google Scholar dengan rentang publikasi tahun 2022-2026. Artikel yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi berjumlah 5 penelitian primer yang membahas keterlibatan ayah dalam pengasuhan, pemberian makan anak, serta kaitannya dengan status gizi anak. Analisis dilakukan secara tematik berdasarkan kesamaan variabel dan temuan penelitian.Hasil: Keterlibatan ayah mencakup dukungan finansial, emosional, edukatif, serta partisipasi langsung dalam pengasuhan anak. Pada periode usia 6-24 bulan, keterlibatan ayah terutama berkaitan dengan dukungan terhadap praktik pemberian makanan pendamping ASI (MPASI), penyediaan pangan bergizi, serta pemantauan pola makan dan pertumbuhan anak. Kehadiran ayah dalam praktik pengasuhan juga meningkatkan pemanfaatan layanan kesehatan anak dan kepatuhan keluarga terhadap anjuran tenaga kesehatan sehingga mendukung pertumbuhan linier anak. Simpulan: Keterlibatan ayah berperan penting dalam pencegahan stunting pada anak usia 6-24 bulan. Program pencegahan stunting perlu memperkuat edukasi keluarga, dukungan komunitas, dan kebijakan yang mendorong peran ayah dalam pengasuhan anak..Kata Kunci : Keterlibatan Ayah; Pencegahan Stunting; Pengasuhan Anak; Gizi Anak; Anak Usia 6-24 Bulan
