        abstract = {Latar Belakang: Undernutrition merupakan kondisi kekurangan atau nutrisi yang
diperlukan tubuh seseorang. Undernutrition dapat mengganggu proses yang terjadi di
dalam tubuh seperti pembentukan leukosit. Penurunan jumlah leukosit di dalam tubuh
dapat meningkatkan resiko terpapar infeksi sehingga memperburuk kondisi
undernutrition. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui perbedaan rerata jumlah
leukosit pada anak dengan undernutrition dengan anak gizi baik di SDN 2 Neglasari
Lampung Selatan
Metode: Desain penelitian cross-sectional dengan teknik pengambilan sampel secara
simple random sampling. Jumlah sampel penelitian sebesar 63 anak. Pengukuran status
gizi dinilai berdasarkan IMT/U yang dibagi ke dalam tiga kelompok, yaitu gizi baik,
gizi kurang, dan gizi buruk. Sedangkan, jumlah leukosit diukur dengan menggunakan
metode flow cytometri. Data dianalisis secara univariat dan bivariat yang dilakukan
dengan uji One Way ANOVA.
Hasil: Pada analisis univariat, gambaran status gizi baik sebesar 58,7\%, gizi kurang
25,4\%, dan gizi buruk 15,9\%. Didapatkan rerata jumlah leukosit seluruh responden
sebesar 8,0852 x 103

/?L. Sedangkan rerata jumlah leukosit pada gizi baik 8,2441 x

103
/?L, gizi kurang 8,1644 x 103

/?L, dan gizi buruk 7,3710 x 103

/?L. Pada analisis
bivariat, tidak didapatkan ada perbedaan signifikan antara rerata jumlah leukosit pada
kasus undernutrition dengan gizi baik (p = 0,202)
Kesimpulan: Tidat terdapat perbedaan signifikan rerata jumlah leukosit pada kasus
undernutrition dengan anak gizi baik di SDN 2 Neglasari, Lampung Selatan.
Kata kunci : Jumlah leukosit, undernutrition, status gizi

Background: Undernutrition is a condition of insufficient nutrition that a person's
body needs. The incidence of undernutrition in Indonesia is 17.7\% and 7\% in Lampung
Province. Undernutrition can disrupt processes that occur in the body, such as the
production of leukocytes. A decrease in the number of leukocytes in the body can
increase the risk of infection thus worsening the condition of undernutrition. The aim
of this study was to determine the difference of mean leukocyte in malnourished
children and well-nourished children in SDN 2 Neglasari South Lampung.
Method: this research use cross-sectional research design with simple random
sampling technique. The total sample was 63 children. Measurement of nutritional

status is assessed based on BMI for age that classified into three groups there are well-
nourished, moderate malnutrition, and severe malnutrition. Meanwhile, the number of

leukocytes was measured using the flow cytometry method. Data were analyzed
univariately and bivariately using the One Way ANOVA test.
Results: Based on univariate analysis showed that the well-nourished group is 58.7\%,
moderate malnutrition group is 25.4\%, and severely malnutrition group is 15.9\%. The
mean leukocyte count for all respondents is 8.0852 x 103

/?L. In comparison the mean

number of leukocytes in well-nourished group is 8.2441 x 103

/?L, in moderate

malnutrition group is 8.1644 x 103

/?L, and in severely malnutrition group is 7.3710 x

103
/?L. Based on bivariate analysis, there was no significant difference between the
mean number of leukocytes in cases of undernutrition and well-nourished (p = 0.202)
Conclusion: There is no significant difference in the mean number of leukocytes in
cases of undernutrition and well-nourished children at SDN 2 Neglasari, South
Lampung.
Key words: Leukocyte count, undernutrition, nutritional status}
