Abstract

The aim of this study is to assess nutritional status and associated factors among infants and young children aged 6-23 months in Yeka sub-city, Ethiopia, 2021. An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted in selected health centres found in the Yeka sub-city from May 2021 to July 2021. In total, 396 systematically selected infants and young children aged 6-23 months attended the selected health centres were included in the study. Data were collected by using a structured questionnaire and anthropometric measurements. A multinomial logistic regression model was used. The overall magnitude of undernutrition and overnutrition among infants and young children were 24.7% and 5.5%, respectively. Dietary diversity score (DDS) ((adjusted odd ratio (AOR) = 5.65; 95% CI = 2.301, 10.87; P value = 0.003), minimum meal frequency (MMF) (AOR = 5.435; 95% CI = 2.097, 11.09; P value = 0.0052), and diarrhoea (AOR = 2.52; 95% CI = 1.007, 6.310; P value = 0.002) were statistically significantly associated factors for nutritional status among infants and young children. Malnutrition (undernutrition and overnutrition) is a public health problem among infants and young children in Yeka sub-city, Ethiopia. DDS, MMF, and diarrhoeal disease were associated with higher odds of undernutrition.

2021 年埃塞俄比亚中部亚的斯亚贝巴 6-23 个月婴幼儿的营养状况及其相关因素:一项横断面研究。
本研究旨在评估 2021 年埃塞俄比亚耶卡分城 6-23 个月婴幼儿的营养状况及相关因素。2021 年 5 月至 2021 年 7 月期间,在耶卡分城选定的保健中心开展了一项以机构为基础的横断面研究。共有 396 名在选定保健中心就诊的 6-23 个月大的婴幼儿被纳入研究范围。研究采用结构化问卷和人体测量法收集数据。研究采用了多项式逻辑回归模型。婴幼儿营养不良和营养过剩的总体比例分别为 24.7% 和 5.5%。膳食多样性评分(DDS)(调整奇数比(AOR)= 5.65;95% CI = 2.301,10.87;P 值 = 0.003)、最低进餐频率(MMF)(AOR = 5.435;95% CI = 2.097,11.09;P 值 = 0.0052)和腹泻(AOR = 2.52;95% CI = 1.007,6.310;P 值 = 0.002)在统计学上与婴幼儿的营养状况显著相关。营养不良(营养不足和营养过剩)是埃塞俄比亚耶卡次级城市婴幼儿的一个公共卫生问题。DDS、MMF和腹泻疾病与营养不良的几率较高有关。
