Nutrients that consist of macronutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, and micro substances such as vitamins and minerals needed by the body for the process of growth and development. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between eating patterns with the nutritional status and cognitive abilities of elementary school children. Cross-Sectional research design. The population in this study were all students as many as 367 students, the sampling used was a Stratified random sampling technique, a sample of 192 respondents. Data analysis uses the Spearman Rank Rho statistical test. The results of the analysis of dietary variables with nutritional status were obtained ρ (0.003) <α (0.05), so H0 was rejected, meaning that there was a relationship between eating patterns and nutritional status of school-age children, with a value of r = 0.210 which showed a high positive correlation. The results of the analysis of nutritional status variables with cognitive abilities obtained results ρ = 0.00, <α = 0.05. meaning that there is a relationship between nutritional status and cognitive learning achievement in elementary school children. Normal nutritional status can be obtained by applying a positive diet so that the intake that enters the body in accordance with the needs of the body.

The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of bifid uvula among elementary school children in grades K through 5. Three examiners performed independent intraoral examinations of 709 children enrolled in a Jacksonville, Florida metropolitan public school. The structure of the uvula was evaluated as normal or bifid. If bifid, the cleft was classified as: (a) notched, (b) extending up to ¼ the length of the uvula, (c) extending from ¼ to ¾ 4 of the length of the uvula, or (d) extending the full length of the uvula. Prevalence of some form of uvular cleft was observed among 16 (2.26%) of the children while full length uvular cleft was found in only two (0.3%) of the children. These findings are congruent with percentages reported in other studies. It is recommended that speech-language pathologists identify children with bifid uvulas and provide appropriate counseling and follow-up study.

Zinc is a micronutrient in protein synthesis, cell differentiation and regulated growth for every cell in the body. Micronutrients such as zinc play a role in growth which affects the hormones that play a role in bone growth. Zinc deficiency can interfere with growth and development that is not optimal. This study aims to see the relationship between zinc mineral intake, mother's education level and family income with the nutritional status of elementary school children in Tuah Negeri, Musi Rawas District. This type of research used an observational study with a cross-sectional design. Sampling using simple random sampling technique. The number of samples is 75 respondents. Retrieval of data on the level of mother's education and family income with the interview method using a questionnaire. Data on the adequacy of zinc intake were carried out. SQ-FFQ interviews were asked about the amount of food in a questionnaire for the last period. Measurement of TB/u was carried out using anthropometry. The results of the statistical study showed that there was no relationship between the level of mother's education and the nutritional status of elementary school children (p = 1000). There was no relationship between zinc mineral intake and nutritional status in school children (p = 0.161). There is a close relationship with parents' income (p = 0.028) with the nutritional status of school children. The conclusion of this study is that children with a family income <UMR have the possibility of 4,327 times experiencing stuning.
