Objective: To summarize anaemia prevalence data for children, women, and men using data from the second, third and fourth waves of the Indonesia Family Life Surveys (IFLS), which were conducted in 1997/8, 2000, and 2007/8, respectively.
Methods: Anaemia prevalence was determined for children 0 to 5 years, 5 to 12 years, 12 to 15 years, non-pregnant women at least 15 years, pregnant women at least 15 years, and men at least 15 years, based on haemoglobin adjusted for altitude and smoking status.
Results: Compared with 1997/8 estimates, anaemia prevalence estimates were lower in 2007/8 for all groups, with the greatest relative decline occurring in children 5 to 12 years (25.4%). Trend analysis found anaemia significantly declined over the survey years for all groups (χ² p=0.005 for pregnant women, χ² p<0.001 for all other groups).
Conclusions: IFLS anaemia estimates for different population groups decreased between 1997/8 and 2007/8 and were consistent with estimates from Southeast Asia, and with other studies conducted in Indonesia. While the prevalence of anaemia consistently decreased in all groups, anaemia remains a moderate public health problem for children 0 to 5 years, children 5 to 12 years, and non-pregnant and pregnant women.
目的:本研究整理從1997/8、2000 及2007/8 年執行的第二次、第三次及第四 次的印尼家庭生活調查(IFLS)獲得的兒童、女性及男性的貧血盛行率。方 法:貧血盛行率為評估0-5 歲、5-12 歲、12-15 歲的兒童,至少15 歲以上的非 懷孕及懷孕婦女以及至少15 歲以上的男性,以調整家戶所在地的海拔高度及 抽菸狀況的血紅蛋白作為評量標準。結果:與1997/8 年的估計值相比, 2007/8 年所有族群的貧血盛行率估計值均較低,其中在5-12 歲兒童有最大的 相對降幅(25.4%)。趨勢分析發現全部族群的貧血顯著的隨著調查年份而降 低(懷孕婦女χ2 p=0.005,所有其他組別χ2 p<0.001)。結論:從1997/8 到 2007/8 年,不同族群的IFLS 貧血估計值與東南亞及其他印尼研究結果一致。 儘管所有族群的貧血盛行率均降低,貧血依然是0-5 歲幼兒、5-12 歲兒童及非 懷孕及懷孕婦女中等的公共衛生問題。.
