Abstract

Student learning achievement is affected by numerous factors including nutrition status, haemoglobin rate (anaemia), iodine status, the adequacy energy and protein which can all affect learning achievement. The prevalence of anaemia in Indonesia is still high. In the primary and middle school age group, the prevalence of anaemia was 26.4%. One of the causes of anaemia in children is STH infection. The purpose of this study is to analyse the relationship between anaemia, STH infection and nutrition status against the learning achievement of Elementary School students, which consists of cross sectional research. Research was conducted on 3rd grade students of state primary schoolsin the rural area of Lampung province, Indonesia which fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The anthropometric data of Body Mass Index (BMI/age), was categorised into normal nutrition (-2 SD<Z<+1 SD), overweight nutrition (+1 SD<Z< +2 SD) and obesity nutrition status (Z>+2 SD). Anaemic status was acquired by directly measuring the haemoglobin rate in students’ blood. STH infection was detected by stool microscopic examination using the floatation method. Academic achievement was gained from the annual average value (even and odd semesters). About 83.8 % of students had normal nutrition status, 15.4% thin and 0.9% fat was found. Students positively infected by STH were up to 48.7%. The prevalence of anaemia was 40.2%. There was no relationship between anaemic status with STH infection and learning achievement, STH infection with nutrition status or nutrition status with anaemic status and learning achievement.
