Abstract

The study aimed to investigate the relationship between stunting and completeness of immunization among children under five years old in Indonesia. The study used a cross-sectional design with a quantitative approach, utilizing secondary data from the Indonesian Family Life Study (IFLS) V big data in 2014. The sample consisted of children aged 12-59 months from 13 provinces in Indonesia, representing 83% of the total population. Data were analyzed using SPSS and STATA programs. Statistical analysis was performed to determine the association between immunization status and stunting. The results showed a significant statistical relationship (p-value <0.05) between immunization status and stunting occurrence among children aged 12-59 months in Indonesia, with a p-value of 0.001 and a PR value of 1.2 (95% CI: 1.14-1.6). Children who receive incomplete immunization have a 1.2 times greater risk of stunting compared to those who receive complete immunization. The study concluded that completeness of immunization is associated with stunting among children under five years old in Indonesia. Therefore, it is essential to ensure complete immunization coverage to prevent stunting in this population.

探索免疫与发育迟缓之间的关系:了解疫苗接种对儿童生长发育的影响

该研究旨在调查印度尼西亚五岁以下儿童发育迟缓与免疫接种完成之间的关系。该研究采用了定量方法的横截面设计，利用了2014年印度尼西亚家庭生活研究(IFLS) V大数据的二手数据。样本包括来自印度尼西亚13个省的12-59个月大的儿童，占总人口的83%。采用SPSS和STATA软件对数据进行分析。进行统计分析以确定免疫状况与发育迟缓之间的关系。结果显示，印度尼西亚12-59月龄儿童免疫接种状况与发育迟缓发生率之间存在显著的统计学关系(p值<0.05)，p值为0.001,PR值为1.2 (95% CI: 1.14-1.6)。与接受完全免疫接种的儿童相比，接受不完全免疫接种的儿童发育迟缓的风险要高1.2倍。该研究得出结论，印度尼西亚五岁以下儿童的发育迟缓与免疫接种的完整性有关。因此，必须确保完全免疫覆盖，以防止这一人群发育迟缓。
