RECOMMENDATION

The Conclusions and Recommendations derived from the meeting :

Stunting started in utero – Birth weight
Growth faltering starts early in life
Catch-up growth is invisible
The long-term effect of growth retardation exists
Positive Effect of multiple micronutrient supplementation and fortification (Ca, Fe, Zn) in early life:
Stature in adult, birth weight of the next generation, reading scores, years of schooling and income
Supplementation to young children (0-2 years) is not negatively affect future obesity
Food Fortification is visible: technology is available for various carriers
Focus on window of vulnerability group: pregnant women and child 0-2 years
Posyandu should be re-activated effectively by emphasizing growth monitoring and action; prevent
early growth retardation à POSYANDU : focus on 0-2 years, especially for the poor
Improved infant and young child feeding : Support and promote breastfeeding with exclusive
Breastfeeding in place; adequate, appropriate and timely complementary feeding
Increase food Fortification intervention

Book ‘Sehat & Bugar Berkat Gizi Seimbang’ (Healthy & Fit Following Nutrition Guidelines)
The book was written to answer the need of a general guide to healthy eating and lifestyle, due to the increase trend of overnutrition and to re-socialize to the public the basic messages of Nutrition Guidelines. The book is co-written by Scientific Members of the Indonesian Danone Institute Foundation with reporters of Nakita, a tabloid providing information on child’s growth. The Nutrition Guidelines is depicted in a “Tumpeng Gizi Seimbang” * designed to accommodate the four main messages:
1. Consume variety of food
2. Keep clean
3. Be active, exercise regularly, and
4. Monitor body weight
In the Introduction, the problem of double burden nutrition in Indonesia, the importance of intervention at the period of ‘Window of Opportunity’, as well as the difference between the previous famous message ‘4 Sehat dan 5 Sempurna’ and ‘Balanced Diet’ was explained. In the next 7 chapters afterward, specific nutritional messages for various stages in life were elaborated. The book is divided into 7 age groupings, namely, pregnant & lactating women, children 0-2 years, 3-5 years, 6-9 years, adolescence 10-19 years, adult, and elderly. In each chapter, four common themes are discussed: specific condition and problems, nutritional needs, and principles of balanced diet covering the above 4 main messages. At the end of each chapter, suggested food pattern and combination of menu were included. At the annex the following information were attached: example of recipes, Ukuran Rumah Tangga (conversion to household measures), Bahan Makanan Penukar (Food Conversion List), Tabel Angka Kecukupan Gizi (Nutrients Recommendation Table), and Body Mass Index table for adult and elderly.

In all, we hope to achieve, among others, the following outcomes:
- Exclusive breastfeeding
- Intellectual child
- Healthy pregnancy
- Healthy and productive life
- Advancement in sport activities
- Prevent illness
- Ideal weight

The 1^st Real-time Manuscript Writing Workshop

Writing scientific paper out of research work is also challenging for IDIF research grantees even though most of them were PhD candidates. Out of 40 research grants, which have been provided by IDIF within 2007-2012, there were about 20% with delayed (relative to the contract period) or no publications yet. These recurring cases were captured as a hint on the needs of direct assistance for the local researchers to improve both their writing skill and ability to scientifically publish their work. The IDIF team, together with the consultant (LW), had organized this workshop for providing highly intensive tutorial sessions for local researchers on manuscript writing and publication in a peer-review journal. For this, IDIF had collaborated with Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition (APJCN) to hold the 1st real-time manuscript writing workshop on December 9th � 10th, 2016 at Double Tree Hotel, Jakarta, Indonesia. To create a conducive scientific environment, the event was designed to be less formal, yet it gave more opportunities for authors to have direct discussions with their tutors within those two consecutive days. The tutors consisted of the IDIF Scientific Members, the consultants, and also the Chief Editor of APJCN. The final selection of manuscripts for publication was done by the Chief Editor of APJCN on the last day of the workshop. This design applied the concept of real-time, which potentially minimize ‘the loss of momentum’ (Most of our scientists might not have the ‘luxury’ to write and publish their works once they come back to their hectic working environment) by ensuring immediate manuscript final editing and publication by the authors. Staging of activities from planning the workshop to the final selection of manuscripts illustrated is presented below:
The 1^st Special Committee Meeting on Lactose Nutrition Research

As stipulated in the By Laws, Indonesian Danone Institute Foundation had established a Special Committee on Lactose Nutrition Research as recommended during the workshop on Lactose Nutrition held in Jakarta last year. The first kick off meeting of this Committee was held in Jakarta at Double Tree by Hilton Hotel on December 12th 2016. The objective of this meeting was to develop a strategic roadmap on Lactose Nutrition Research (LNR) contains strategies; 3-M (man ‐ power, materials, and money) and infrastructure; plan of actions. The purpose of this meeting was to establish a well-design and sustainable Lactose Nutrition Research in Indonesia.

Members of Special Committee are:

SharePoint Online Environment

SharePoint Online is a cloud-based service that helps Indonesian Danone Institute Foundation (IDIF)’s employees share and collaborate with coworkers, and in the near future also with external users such as scientific members, grantees and other participants. With SharePoint Online, the employees can access internal sites, documents, and other information from anywhere�at the office, at home, or from a mobile device.

A site collection is a group of websites. A site collection has a top-level site and one or more subsites below it. IDIF has a site collection with three subsites. The top-level site is called Indonesian Danone Institute Foundation Team Site, and the three subsites are Finance, Human Resource, and Data Bank, as shown in Picture 1. IDIF can have more than one site collection if required. For example, if IDIF needs to share content externally, they need to create a site in a totally separate site collection for security reason.
Project Monitoring and Evaluation System

IDIF had implemented Project Monitoring and Evaluation System for 2 years, using Microsoft Project Pro 2013 as its application. The intensive training in 2015 and coaching in 2016 had provided the skills which IDIF’ staff needed to implement the system. The system had been used to monitor research projects granted in 2014. Some of the phases in the system including building schedules (planning) and collecting actuals, were obtained from Grantees. Those phases were manually completed where Excel Sheet was used as a medium to build the schedules and collect the actuals, and later send them to IDIF. The Grantees had experienced some confusion about the format of schedule and actual that they had to follow.
Critical Appraisal of Grant Recipients

Since its establishment, YIDI had made contributions in funding a variety of researches and published numerous scientific publications in the field of nutrition and health. Reviews and appraisal for conducted researches using the fund from YIDI were considered necessary to improve the future research quality.

For the development of future researches, YIDI will continue developing data bank and its standardization which will be used to re-analyze the aggregate data and generate systematic review as well as meta-analysis.

By developing standardization in critical appraisal, it is expected it could be used as the reference in assessing the researches funded by YIDI. The appraisal report is expected to provide feedback to YIDI and as well as to the researchers regarding the matters which need attention as the improvement for further researches.

Project Monitoring using Microsoft Project was very useful to follow the progress research of the Grantees. The schedules and actuals have been monitored every three months by sending an email about the late task of their research work. In this year, the Foundation has completed 6 grantees.
Critical Appraisal of Grant Recipients

Since its establishment, the Foundation has contributed to various research funding and has produced many scientific publications in the fields of nutrition and health. For this reason, it is felt the need to conduct economic analysis in order to make efficient funds used by the Foundation. Besides that, we also continue to conduct appraisal from studies conducted under the Foundation’s funding to improve quality and improve further research and also assess the accuracy in meeting the research time frame and in collecting reports to the Foundation.

Likewise, with the development of further research, the Foundation will continue to develop data banks and standardization of variable naming, so that the data will be ready for re-analysis in the aggregate and produce systematic reviews and meta-analyses and develop a database structure.

In this year, the Foundation has conducted an economic analysis of the grantees (from research proposals to publications) and other activities related to the funding; critical appraisal on IDIF-funded studies; an assessment of accuracy in meeting the research time frame and in collecting reports to IDIF.

  Perinatal and maternal mortalities in Java became of concern in the 1980s. Since some 90% of births took place at home, the Tanjungsari (TS) district of West Java was identfied as a locality where community-based risk management strategy might reduce this health burden. In 1987, traditional birth attendants (TBA) were trained to identify risk factors for unfavourable birth outcomes. From January 1st 1988 to December 1989, some 4,000 pregnant women in TS were followed and assigned either a trained or untrained TBA. In the first year, early neonatal, and maternal mortality rates (MMR) (32.9 per 1000 and 170 per 100,000 deliveries respectively) were reduced, but not sustained in the second year. Nationally, MMR was 446 in 2009 and 126 in 2015. Although possible to improve health worker performance, and community engagement, the most likely explanation for benefit attrition is that people and material resources ‘downstream’ of the TBA services were inadequate. Three decades later, Indonesian neonatal and maternal mortality rates of 14 per 1000 and 126 per 100,000 live births in 2015 (globally 16.2 in 2009 and 216 in 2015) according to UNICEF, still demanded improvement, despite more hospital-based births. The original 1988 cohort of women, their children and grandchildren, can now be interrogated for medium to long term health outcomes of nutritional, such as birth weight and growth, and other risk factors. The evolving TS cohort health and nutrition intermediates and endpoints are instructive. Maternal and early life factors predict adult energy metabolism and cognitive function.

  Background and Objectives: Intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) is related to mortality and morbidity. However, defining IUGR by suitable field methods remains a challenge. A maternal-child Risk-Approach-Strategy (during 1988-1989) and follow-on Tanjungsari Cohort Study (TCS) (1989-1990), aimed to generate a practical classification of IUGR and explore its usage in predicting growth, mortality and morbidity of infants in the cohort. Study Design: Some 3892 singleton live-birth infants were followed. IUGR was defined by birth weight (BW) and length (BL) classified as: acute, chronic, non-IUGR or ‘probably preterm’. Growth, mortality, and survival curve were calculated to prove that the classification identified the most vulnerable infants. Fever >3 days and diarrhoea were assessed based on IUGR classification, sex, exclusive breastfeeding, and environmental factors. Results: IUGR infant weight and length did not catch-up with the non-IUGR in the first year. Infant mortality rate was 44.7 per 1000 where some 61% died within 90 days. Using age specific mortality by BW, 23.6% of all deaths occurred when it was <2500 g compared to 66.2% from IUGR and preterm groups. Fever and diarrhoea rates increased over 12 months. Diarrhoea was associated with poor source-of-drinking-water and latrine. Conclusion: The IUGR classification predicted one-year growth curves and survival, besides age and sex. IUGR based on BW and BL identified a larger group of at-risk infants than did low BW. High morbidity rates were partly explained by poor environmental conditions. IUGR inclusive of BL has value in optimizing nutritional status in the first 1000 days of life.

  Background and Objectives: Low birth weight leads to growth faltering, attributable inter alia to malnutrition and maternal health and literacy. Risk for growth faltering in rural children under five is studied. Study Design: The Risk Approach Strategy in Tanjungsari, West Java has been analysed for all pregnancies during 1988-1989 and 4,698 singleton infants born between 1 January 1988 and 31 April 1990. Weight and body length/height measurements were repeated over 60 months, and plotted against WHO standards. Weight-for-age and height-for-age z-scores were calculated using 2006 WHO growth as reference. The correlation between shortness (so-called stunting) and its presumptive risk factors was determined. A subset underwent DNA analysis for insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) polymorphism. Results: Weight and body length/height follow-ups were followed-up for 3795 infants; 14.2% of the cohort had low birth weight (<2500 g) (LBW) and 85.8% normal birth weight (NBW). LBW infants showed a similar velocity but tended to catch up more slowly (GEE; p<0.001). Relative to WHO references, the differential for stature increased with age, largely offset by reduced weight-for-age so that weight-for-height tracked close to the WHO reference; this contrasts with more divergence internationally. Birth length and weight, along with potable water access were correlated with stunting for children under 2 years. Neither the observed IGF-1, IRS-1 or combined gene polymorphisms were associated with LBW. Conclusions: The prediction by factors operative during pregnancy for early life stature ,with some adaptation for LBW infants, endures to 60 months.

  Background and Objectives: Health status during adolescence may predetermine that during adulthood. Being short because of nutritional and health adversity, where stunting is indicative, is a global health concern, possibly in adolescence. This study assessed the prevalence of shortness (defined by HAZ <�2 SD) at age 12 and its determinants. Study Design: This Tanjungsari birth cohort of 1988/1989 was revisited in 2001�2002 with 3093 participating children, their parents and households. The cohort was tracked from birth, to ages 2 and 12 with anthropometry, with birth weight, then weight and height-for-age at 2 and 12, dietary history at age 2, health patterns at age 2 and 12, and environmental exposures. Results: The prevalence of adolescent shortness, presumed ‘stunting’, was 48.8% for which predictor Odds Ratios (OR) were low birth weight 1.64 (95% CI: 1.28-2.09), short height for age at 2-years 1.54 (95% CI: 1.33-1.80), limited maternal education 1.19 (95% CI: 1.01-1.41), unimproved source of drinking water 1.27 (95% CI: 1.08-1.49), unimproved latrine 1.18 (95% CI: 1.01-1.39) and presence of atopic disease at 12 years of age 1.29 (95% CI: 1.01-1.65). Smoking exposure, not breastfed, formula milk consumption and infectious disease at age 2 were not associated with shortness at age 12 on multivariable analysis. Conclusions: Adolescent shortness was found in almost half of this rural Javanese cohort followed from birth. It was associated with birth weight, and several individual, maternal and environmental factors evident at age 2, along with an atopic disposition at age 12. However, stature itself may not constitute a health risk over and above the associated socio-environmental conditions.

  Background and Objectives: Resting metabolic rate and cognitive function may be associated with several factors, such as birth weight, growth, and fat-free mass in adulthood. The Tanjungsari Cohort Study (TCS) of 1988, to do with a maternal-child Risk Approach Strategy (RAS), provided the opportunity to determine the associations between birth weight, growth at 2 years, and body composition with adult resting metabolic rate and cognitive function. Methods and Study Design: In 2009 some 197 and, in 2017,144 of these representative participants from the TCS were assessed for energy intake, anthropometry, body composition, indirect calorimetry, and cognitive function in relation to low (ALBW, n=66) or normal (ANBW, n=78) birth weight. Associations were adjusted for basic demographic data. Results: Resting metabolic rate was positively associated with birth weight, body weight at 2 years of age, body mass index and fat free mass in adult life. Time to finish the Trail Making Test-A (TMT-A), a test of attention span, was significantly longer in the ALBW than the ANBW group (41.4±12.8 vs 37.8±15.6, p=0.005). In the ALBW group, weight catch-up improved TMT-A and logical memory test scores (29.5 vs 34.9.41, p=0.004; and 39.3 vs 29.4, p=0.04, respectively). Conclusions: Low birth weight was associated with poorer attention span in adult life; body weight gain at 2 years of age with better attention and memory function in adult life; a greater body mass index in adult life with better memory in adult life.
