AbstractObjectivesAs a part of an ongoing project to develop a nutritional screening tool, we evaluated the performance of a semi-quantitative food-frequency questionnaire (FFQ) in terms of validity in a Sheffield Caucasian pregnant population using two different statistical approaches – the correlation coefficient and the limits of agreement (LOA). The FFQ was designed specifically for pregnant women and previously used in a large-scale study.DesignA validation study.SettingA community-based field study of a general population of pregnant women booked for their first antenatal appointment at the Jessop Wing, Royal Hallamshire Hospital, Sheffield, UK.SubjectsOne hundred and twenty-three women of different socio-economic status, aged between 17 and 43 years, provided complete dietary data.ResultsThe validity of the FFQ was tested against a series of two 24-hour recalls. As expected, the intakes of all examined nutrients, except for iodine, carotene, vitamin E, biotin, vitamin C and alcohol, were higher when determined by the FFQ than when determined by 24-hour recall. Pearson's correlation coefficient between the two methods ranged from 0.19 (added sugar, zinc) to 0.47 (Englyst fibre). The LOA were broader for some of the nutrients, e.g. protein, Southgate fibre and alcohol, and an increasing lack of agreement between the two methods was identified with higher dietary intakes.ConclusionsThe FFQ gave useful estimates of the nutrient intakes of Caucasian pregnant women and appears to be a valid tool for categorising pregnant women according to dietary intake. The FFQ performed well for most nutrients and had acceptable agreement with the 24-hour recall.

Abstract: Pregnancy is a critical time or a golden period of the brief human growth and development time, a part of the Window of Opportunity, which affects the maternal and fetal health. Throughout the first phase of pregnancy, pregnant women need more food intake, accurate eating pattern, and also a balanced macronutrient intake. An adequate intake of food is very important to support the physical health and development of fetal mental health also decrease the risk of pregnancy complications. This study was aimed to obtain the description of food consumption pattern in pregnant women in Manado. This was a descriptive study with a cross sectional design using Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) to obtain data of pregnant women in 5 public health centers in Manado from September to October 2016. Based on the FFQ data given by 181 respondents, the consumption of pregnant women in Manado was as follows: carbohydrate 159.97g/day, protein 79.15g/day, and fat 124.74g/ day. The most common foods consumed by the pregnant women were rice (carbohydrate), saltwater fish (protein), and coconut oil (fat). Meanwhile, chicken was rarely consumed (81.22%) and eel was never consumed (100%). Conclusion: Pregnant women in Manado had a food pattern that was lack in carbohydrate and high in fat according to pregnant women Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA) in Indonesia.Keywords: pregnant women, food pattern, food frequency questionnaire Abstrak: Kehamilan merupakan masa kritis atau masa emas tumbuh kembang manusia yang singkat, bagian dari Window of Opportunity, yang memengaruhi kesehatan ibu dan janin. Sepanjang tahap awal kehamilan, ibu hamil membutuhkan konsumsi makanan yang lebih dari semula, pola makanan yang tepat, juga asupan makronutrien yang seimbang. Pola asupan makanan yang adekuat sangat penting untuk menunjang kesehatan fisik, perkembangan mental janin, dan menurunkan komplikasi kehamilan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan gambaran umum pola konsumsi makanan pada ibu hamil di Kota Manado. Jenis penelitian ialah deskriptif dengan desain potong lintang menggunakan Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) pada ibu hamil di 5 puskesmas di Kota Manado selama bulan September-Oktober 2016. Berdasarkan perolehan data FFQ dari 181 responden, didapatkan bahwa konsumsi karbohidrat ibu hamil di Kota Manado sebanyak 159,97gr/hari, protein sebanyak 79,15gr/hari, dan lemak sebanyak 124,74gr/hari. Makanan tersering dan terbanyak yang dikonsumsi ialah beras (karbohidrat), ikan air laut (protein), dan minyak kelapa (lemak). Ayam merupakan makanan yang jarang dikonsumsi (81,22%) dan belut merupakan makanan yang tidak pernah dikonsumsi ibu hamil (100%). Simpulan: Ibu hamil di Kota Manado memiliki pola makan yang rendah karbohidrat dan tinggi lemak berdasarkan AKG ibu hamil di Indonesia.

Teenagers are a group of ranges experiencing nutritional problems. Nutrition problems that often occur in adolescents are lack of nutrient intake which can trigger chronic energy deficiency (CED) and anemia as a result of iron deficiency. The purpose of the study was to analyze the relationship of macro nutrient intake, iron intake, hemoglobin levels to the risk of chronic energy deficiency. This study uses a case-control design, which was carried out on 72 Muhammadiyah 1 Palembang high school students consisting of 36 at risk of CED and 36 at no risk of CED. Data on macro-nutrient intake and Fe intake were obtained from the calculation of Semi-Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQ-FFQ), Hemoglobin content data using the quick check method, and CED data through measurement of mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC). Data analysis using the Chi-square test at CI:95%. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between energy consumption and macronutrient intake (p=0,004), protein (p=0,004), fat (p=0,031), and iron intake (p=0,000) with the risk of young female CED. The absorption of macro and micronutrients influences. The conclusion, the risk of CED in adolescent girls. Suggestions, education and interventions need to be done related to the importance of paying attention to the nutritional status of adolescent girls. Remaja merupakan kelompok rentang mengalami masalah gizi. Masalah gizi yang sering terjadi pada remaja adalah kurangnya asupan zat gizi yang dapat memicu terjadinya kurang energi kronis (KEK) serta anemia sebagai akibat kekurangan zat besi. Tujuan penelitian untuk menganalisis hubungan asupan zat gizi makro, asupan zat besi, kadar haemoglobin terhadap risiko kurang energi kronis. Metode penelitian survei analitik dengan desain secara kasus kontrol. Penelitian dilakukan pada 72 siswi SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Palembang terdiri 36 berisiko KEK dan 36 tidak KEK.  Data asupan zat gizi makro dan asupan Fe diperoleh dari perhitungan Semi Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQ-FFQ), data kadar Haemoglobin menggunakan metode quick cek, dan data KEK melalui pengukuran lingkar lengan atas (LiLA). Analisis data menggunakan uji Chi-square pada CI:95%. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat hubungan signifikan antara asupan z\at gizi makro energi (p=0,004), protein (p=0,004), lemak (p=0,031) dan asupan zat besi (p=0,000) dengan risiko KEK remaja putri. Kesimpulan, Risiko KEK pada remaja putri dipengaruhi oleh asupan zat gizi makro dan mikro. Saran, perlu dilakukan edukasi dan intervensi terkait pentingnya memperhatikan status gizi remaja putri.
