Biomarker of Malnutrition in Terms of Total Salivary Protein in Stunting Children (Literature Review)
The prevalence of children under five (or Balita) with stunting in Indonesia is relatively high, it is 29.6% above the limit set by WHO (20%). Stunting is a condition where children fail to grow due to long-term malnutrition. Parents regrettably often underestimate such conditions. In case it is n...

| Summary: | The prevalence of children under five (or Balita) with stunting in Indonesia is relatively high, it is 29.6% above
the limit set by WHO (20%). Stunting is a condition where children fail to grow due to long-term malnutrition.
Parents regrettably often underestimate such conditions. In case it is not detected prior to 24 months old, the
consequences will be permanent. Oftentimes, malnutrition is detected at a later time, make it occurs even more
frequently. Malnutrition affects general and oral health. In malnourished children, salivary gland hypofunction
ensues which cause a decrease in flow rate, buffer capacity, and salivary secretion, both in quantity and
composition, especially protein. The condition where increased severity of malnutrition followed by a decrease
in salivary protein concentration is expected to be a biomarker of malnutrition. The purpose of this study is to
analyze the potential of total salivary protein as a malnutrition biomarker. |
