Abstract
Objective. Analyzing possible determinants for pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) in under-five children with stunting and severely stunting in Bandung. Methods. Data was collected from 64 community health centers in Bandung using multiple stratified random sampling. Medical history, body measurements, tuberculin skin tests (TST), and chest X-rays (CXR) were collected. Possible determinants to PTB were analyzed using multiple logistic regression (P value of <.05 was significant). Results. 169 under-five children with stunting and severely stunting were included. 59.76% of children were diagnosed with PTB. The absence of BCG scars and weight-for-age were significant determinants of PTB (P value <.05). Conclusions. PTB was observed in more than half of stunted and severely stunted under 5 children. BCG scars are a protective factor, while weight-for-age is a risk factor for stunting and severe stunting.
