Improvement of Nutritional Status among Tuberculosis Patients by Channa striata Supplementation: A True Experimental Study in Indonesia

Abstract: Objective. To analyze the effect of Channa striata supplementation on body mass index among tuberculosis patients, in which their health status is also investigated. Methods. This study employed a true experiment. The study was designed randomized pretest-posttest with a control group, in which 200 respondents were enrolled. Body mass index (BMI), used as a nutritional status indicator, was measured every week for a month. Chi-square test was used to analyze the data with a significance level of 5% by STATA 13… Show more

“…The findings of Isa Ma’rufi et al . [ 29 ] also supported this finding, and their study showed that by taking the BMI supplements for a month, the patients with TB ascended faster than the control group and the disease improved with minimal negative effects of the disease. Therefore, to eliminate or reduce the incidence of TB in the community, further study on the use of dietary supplements in patients with TB is needed.…”

“…Thus, in order to combat this issue, vitamins and nutrient supplementations (e.g., Channa striata) have been utilized in Indonesia. This extract-containing supplementation was discovered to induce an improvement in BMI levels and accelerate recovery in TB patients (Ma'rufi et al, 2019;Ma'rufi et al, 2020). In Medan, vitamin A and C supplementations in TB patients were also discovered to improve sputum conversion, meaning that the previously TB-positive sputum has been converted to a TBnegative smear result (Safitri et al, 2022;Sari et al, 2019).…”

“…Many studies have been developed using this fish species. Snakehead extract supplementation in tuberculosis patients is known to significantly increase Body Mass Index (BMI) with minimal adverse effects (Ma'rufi et al, 2020). Furthermore, its fillet extract is known to exert a hepatoprotective effect in a rat model induced with oxidative stress (Suhartono et al, 2013).…”
