Abstract

AIM

To study the effect of weaning biscuits supplementation of the nutritional parameters and cognitive performance of the selected children.

METHODS

Three primary schools situated in Salem District, Tamilnadu, India were selected. A total number of 150 school children, 61 from primary school I, 46 from primary school II and 43 from primary school III comprised the study sample. About 80 primary school children with Grade II malnutrition were selected for the experimental study. Home diet without any supplementation was followed by Group I (n=20, control group), potato flour biscuit was supplemented to Group II (n=20), wheat biscuits was given to Group III (n=20) and ragi biscuits were given to Group IV (n=20) for the period of 3 months. Parameters like anthropometric measurements, hemoglobin content clinical picture and cognitive performance were analyzed before and after supplementation.

RESULTS

Results about Group I (control group) showed no significant difference in height, weight and clinical picture and cognitive performance after three months on their home diet. In Group II, III and IV significant increase in all the above parameters was noticed. More increase was found in Group II children supplemented with potato flour biscuits for a period of 3 months. About cognitive performance better results was obtained in Group II followed by Group III (supplemented with wheat biscuits) and Group IV (supplemented with ragi biscuits). Least was obtained by control group children who are in their home diet.

CONCLUSION

All these observations evident that if such weaning biscuits made with potato flour, wheat and Ragi can form a daily ingredient in their diets, it will bring out better all round development of the children.

摘要

目的

研究断奶饼干补充对选定儿童营养参数和认知表现的影响。

方法

选择印度泰米尔纳德邦塞勒姆区的三所小学。共有 150 名在校儿童，其中小学 I 有 61 名，小学 II 有 46 名，小学 III 有 43 名，构成了研究样本。约有 80 名患有二级营养不良的小学生被选入实验组。第一组（n=20，对照组）遵循家庭饮食，不进行任何补充；第二组（n=20）补充土豆粉饼干；第三组（n=20）给予小麦饼干；第四组（n=20）给予小米饼干，持续 3 个月。在补充前后分析了人体测量学测量、血红蛋白含量、临床症状和认知表现等参数。

结果

关于第一组（对照组）的结果显示，在其家庭饮食三个月后，身高、体重和临床症状以及认知表现没有显著差异。第二组、第三组和第四组所有上述参数均有显著增加。在补充土豆粉饼干三个月的第二组儿童中，增加更为明显。关于认知表现，第二组（补充土豆粉饼干）的结果更好，其次是第三组（补充小麦饼干）和第四组（补充小米饼干）。对照组儿童的结果最差，他们仍处于家庭饮食中。
