Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a non-communicable disease with a steadily increasing prevalence, especially in Indonesia. One early prevention effort is detection through regular blood sugar and cholesterol screening, particularly in adults. This community service activity aims to raise public awareness of the importance of early screening as a form of preventing the risk of DM. The activity was conducted in Village X and involved 110 participants aged 30–65 years. The screening included random blood sugar (BGS), total cholesterol, blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), and counseling on a healthy lifestyle. The results showed that 28% of participants had a BGS above the normal limit (>140 mg/dL), 36% had high cholesterol (>200 mg/dL), and 42% had a BMI in the overweight-obese category. After the education, 85% of participants reported an increased understanding of DM risk factors and the importance of regular check-ups. This activity has proven effective as a promotive and preventive measure to reduce the risk of DM in the community.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major global health problem with high morbidity and mortality rates. The success of TB treatment is largely determined by patient adherence to anti-tuberculosis drug (OAT) therapy. One of the factors influencing adherence is the patient's level of knowledge regarding the disease and its treatment. This Study aimed to analyze the relationship between knowledge level and patient adherence to OAT therapy at Daruba Primary Health Center. This Study employed a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 43 respondents were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires measuring knowledge level and adherence to OAT therapy and were analyzed using the chi-square test with a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that most respondents had moderate to good knowledge and moderate levels of adherence. Bivariate analysis revealed a significant relationship between knowledge level and adherence to OAT therapy (p < 0.05), indicating that respondents with better knowledge tended to be more adherent to treatment. In conclusion, there is a significant relationship between knowledge level and adherence to OAT therapy among tuberculosis patients. Adequate knowledge plays an important role in improving patient adherence to treatment. Therefore, structured and continuous educational interventions by healthcare providers are needed to enhance patient understanding and improve TB treatment outcomes. Adequate knowledge plays an important role in improving adherence to OAT therapy among TB patients. Continuous education is needed to improve knowledge and adherence among TB patients.
