Background: Anemia is a condition in which the concentration of hemoglobin (Hb) in the blood is lower than the normal value. Anemia that occurs due to iron deficiency so that the formation of red blood cells and other functions in the body is disrupted is iron nutritional anemia. Based on Riskesdas data in 2018, the prevalence of anemia was 48.9% in the 15-24 year age group. According to WHO, adolescents are residents in the age range of 10-19 years, young women have a higher risk, this is because young women experience menstruation (menstruation) every month. The impact of the incidence of anemia in adolescents can reduce concentration and learning achievement, as well as affect productivity among youth. Based on this background, the author is interested in carrying out community service activities for the prevention of anemia in young women during the new normal period of Covid-19 at Panca Atma Jaya Vocational School, Klungkung. Purpose: The purpose of this activity is as a form of implementation of Tri Dharma Stikes Panca Atma Jaya Klungkung. Methods: Participants who took part in this activity were 67 students using the pretest and posttest methods. Results: The results obtained were an increase in the pretest score (before being given education) which was 69.41% to 89.42% in the posttest result (after being given education). Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between posttest scores, which increases after education is held, so anemia prevention education needs to be given and improved to improve anemia prevention behavior in adolescent girls.

Examination of children's development with the KPSP instrument was 100% developmentally appropriate. The education provided to parents shows that they are active participants in question and answer discussion activities and demonstrations of growth and development stimulation.

The nutritional problems faced in Indonesia today remain the same, namely that many children suffer from malnutrition. The national movement to increase breastfeeding is one of the government's efforts to improve the health status of mothers and children. However, the achievement of exclusive breastfeeding has not been achieved, one of the reasons is the breastfeeding factor. Meanwhile, the point in the success of providing exclusive breastfeeding and continuing it for up to 2 years is related to a mother's understanding of lactation management. So this service activity is carried out to teach mothers who are young pregnant, late pregnant and have just given birth to a 1 month old baby to participate so that their knowledge increases. The method in this activity is a pre-test before providing information related to breastfeeding and lactation management, then continuing with the post-test to see the success of the activity. The mothers' enthusiasm was seen to be very high and resulted in a strong determination to be able to provide exclusive breast milk to their babies. The success rate of this activity was 80%, judged from the responses and questions from the participants.

Background: MPASI is a food transition from breast milk to family food. Giving MPASI should be given to infants aged 6-24 months in stages both from the texture and number of portions.

Monitoring nutrition and health during the First 1000 Days of Life (HPK) in Pacellekang Village is very important to prevent stunting. However, during the pandemic, many posyandu were forced to stop their activities because they were in the red zone. The assistance program for malnourished pregnant women (KEK) aims to improve the health and nutritional status of KEK pregnant women in Makassar City. Community service activities are carried out online using Zoom meetings, WhatsApp groups and Google Forms. The results of the service show that most of the knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women regarding nutrition and health are classified as good. The majority (85.2%) of pregnant women had carried out pregnancy checks at least four times with a midwife or doctor during pregnancy. Apart from that, 88.9% of pregnant women regularly take blood supplement tablets. Around 85.2% of pregnant women follow the principles of balanced nutrition in their daily diet. However, 55.6% of pregnant women who frequently experience nausea and vomiting tend to lose their appetite and skip meals and snacks. Based on program monitoring in October, there were records that two pregnant women were unable to provide exclusive breastfeeding (IMD) due to premature birth (separation care), and young mothers (under 20 years) felt anxious when breast milk did not come immediately after delivery, so they gave Formula milk.    

Background: The maternal mortality rate (MMR) in Indonesia is still quite high,based on the results of SUPAS in 2015, the MMR was 305/ 100,000 live births.Efforts to decrease of MMR can be done by ensuring that every mother can access quality health services for pregnant women because every pregnancy has the risk of complications. Integrated antenatal services are carried out including health counseling, antenatal care, case management and follow-up, preparation for delivery and planning for referrals in case of pregnancy. In the initial researchconducted in Hutaginjang Village, Muara, there were still pregnant women who did not have their pregnancy checked according to the minimum pregnancy standards. Purpose: Screening and pregnancy risk factors is indispensable for early pregnancy and the potential for emergency pregnancy. Methods: Activities carried out by integrated and free pregnancy examinations for pregnant women include measuring weight / height and arm  ircumference, vital signs, physical examination, Hb examination, urine protein and glucose, provision of IEC about nutritional fulfillment, overcoming complaints of pregnant women in trimester IIII,preparation for delivery and administration of iron supplements as well as preparation for referrals for mothers who experience complications in their pregnancy. Results: The activity was carried out without any obstacles, with 18 mothers having their pregnancies checked. The results of the examination found several risk factors for pregnancy, namely age under 20 years and above 35 years of parity, history of delivery by sectio, height below 145 cm, anemia,preeclampsia, breech location, hyperemesia gravidarum, gestational diabetes and gemelli pregnancy. Each mother received communication, information and education related to  maintaining and improving health during pregnancy and  giving iron tablets. Conclusion:Screening and control of pregnancy risk factors is needed to detect early whether the pregnancy is at risk and has the potential for emergency pregnancy, so that the mother can pass her pregnancy well and give birth to a healthy baby.   

Background: One of the causes of high maternal and infant mortality rates (IMR) is anemia of pregnancy and chronic energy deficiency (KEK). Anemia and KEK in pregnant women can increase the risk of low birth weight babies (LBW), premature birth, maternal and infant mortality and stunting (short children).To prevent this from happening, it is necessary to carry out screening and Fe supplementation as a preventive measure to prevent anemia in pregnancy. Activity This community service aims to screen for anemia and KEK  pregnant women and women of childbearing age (WUS) as well as the provision of Fe supplementation for prevent iron deficiency anemia. Method: The method used is involving community as a form of empowerment such as measuring LiLA and levels of hemoglobin (Hb), BMI, and distribution of Fe supplementation. Besides that, it is also done education about anemia in pregnancy. The population in this activity is women aged fertile 15-40 years, a total of 42 people in Sambirobyong Hamlet, Pangkur Village,Ngawi Regency. Results: The results show that from 42 women of childbearing age in the hamlet Sambirobyong were screened, there were 3 people (7%) women of childbearing age temporary anemia 1 person (2%) with anemia status plus KEK. From 4 WUS people for age <20 years as many as 2 people (50%) with 1 person condition pregnant with anemia and 1 non-pregnant with anemia. While 2 people(50%) aged >35 years with 1 pregnant condition with anemia + KEK and 1 non-pregnant people with anemia. There is 1 person (2%) experiencing the risk of SEZ. Conclusion: Screening results show that anemia and KEK are more common WUS group aged <20 years and >35 years. It is necessary to carry out periodic evaluations every months and giving Fe supplementation to WUS who are still anemic and the risk of KEK and education on the importance of quality nutrition to prevent these complications. 

Iron (Fe) tablets are mineral tablets that the body uses to make red blood cells and hemoglobin. For red blood cell production, Fe is the most significant element. Food is a natural source of iron. Nutritional anemia can develop in pregnant women if they don't get enough iron in their diet (blood deficiency). Pregnant women need iron (Fe) tablets, so they must consume at least 90 Fe tablets during pregnancy. The aim of the research was to determine the relationship between consumption of Fe tablets and the incidence of anemia at the Penrang Community Health Center, Wajo Regency. The type of research used was a cross sectional study. The samples were 72 pregnant women who underwent pregnancy checks at the Penrang Community Health Center, Wajo Regency, using a random sampling technique. The research results showed a relationship between consumption of Fe tablets and the incidence of anemia at the Penrang Health Center, Wajo Regency, where the p value = 0.000 < ? = 0.05. The conclusion is that there is a relationship between the consumption of Fe tablets and the incidence of anemia at the Penrang Community Health Center, Wajo Regency.

Infant health can be known one of them through the assessment of nutritional status. In general, Body Mass Index (BMI) has been used as a method for measuring the nutritional status of children. If there are two children who have same body weight and height, they may have different nutritional status. Whenever this occurs, the use of BMI for measuring the nutritional status shall be deemed less accurate. The anthropometry will be vital in measuring the nutritional statuss. The guidelines for determining the nutritional status Anthropometry parameters are selected and recommended which includes an assessment of the age, weight, body length or height. This research aims to build a model of C4.5 adaboost so it can recognize patterns and be able to classify the nutritional status of children into five classes: normal, fat, very fat, thin and very thin. The variables used in this classification is Gender, Age (Months), Weight (kg) Height (cm). C4.5 (decision tree) Method has a good performance in dealing with the classification of nutritional status but the C4.5 has a weakness in the class imbalance. Adaboost isone ofboosting methods that could reduce imbalances class by giving weight to the level of classification error which may alter the distribution of data. Experiments carried out by applying the adaboost method C4.5 to obtain optimal results and a good degree of accuracy. The experimental results obtained from C4.5 method show that accuracy is 89.53%, the error rate is 10.47%, while the results of C4.5 with adaboost show 90.23% accuracy and 9.77% error rate. It can be concluded in the classification of nutritional status of children with C4.5 and adaboost proven method to solve problems of class imbalance and improve the high accuracy and can reduce the level of classification error.

The increase in Life Expectancy (UHH) has an impact on the increase in the elderly population and the problems due to aging. One of them is the system for regulating blood sugar levels which is disrupted due to changes in the body composition of the elderly in the form of increased fat composition from the body 14% to 30%. Efforts to prevent the incidence of Diabetes Mellitus is to achieve good nutritional status with anthropometric measurements, namely the division of body weight in kg with height in meters squared expressed in body mass index or BMI. This study aims to analyze the relationship between BMI and blood sugar levels in the elderly at the Sabar Narimo Posyandu, Lempuyangan Hamlet, Gebugan Village, Bergas District, Semarang Regency.
