Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health concern in Islamic boarding schools due to the high risk of disease transmission in communal living environments. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the "Lawan TBC" educational movement in improving students' knowledge of tuberculosis prevention. A pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was conducted among 38 students in grades 10–12 at an Islamic boarding school in Surabaya. The intervention included lectures, interactive discussions, and question-and-answer sessions on TB transmission, symptoms, prevention, and proper cough etiquette. Knowledge was assessed using questionnaires administered before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. The mean pretest score was 35.53 ± 10.05, increasing to 46.32 ± 7.86 in the posttest, with a mean difference of 10.79 points. Statistical analysis showed a significant improvement in knowledge after the intervention (p = 9.45 × 10⁻⁸; p < 0.01). The findings demonstrate that the "Lawan TBC" educational movement effectively improves students' knowledge of tuberculosis prevention. Educational programs in Islamic boarding schools can support TB prevention efforts and promote preventive health behaviors among adolescents.

Abstract

Social stigma still attached to the families of leprosy patients in Sumber Glagah Hamlet, Pacet, Mojokerto, causes limited access to education, employment, and social interaction. This condition has led to a decrease in family income, even though leprosy is curable. To overcome this, community empowerment was carried out through cultivation training and the production of herbal drink powder as an effort to improve the economy and quality of life. The activity was conducted in Sumber Glagah Hamlet, Pacet District, Mojokerto. The methods used were counseling and training on the archipelago herbal drink (Serbat Nusantara) and the cultivation of herbal ginger plants. The total number of participants was 23 leprosy patient family members. The increase in participant knowledge was measured by giving a pre-test before the activity and a post-test after the training. The results showed a significant increase in knowledge, reaching a "Good" category score of 86.95%. Participants were very enthusiastic, demonstrated by their activeness during the discussion and question-and-answer session. This activity concludes that skill-based training, such as making herbal drink powder, can significantly increase the knowledge and morale of leprosy survivor families in economic empowerment efforts. It is suggested that similar programs be carried out sustainably and collaboratively to reduce stigma and strengthen local economic independence.

Abstract

Background: Periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) is a white matter lesion of the brain that can cause a variety of neurological disorders, including mental retardation and communication disorders. This condition often presents challenges in dental care due to the patient's limited ability to communicate and cooperate during dental procedures. Purpose: To address the management of multiple pulp necrosis in a child with periventricular leukomalacia. Method: A patient presented with a history of PVL, accompanied by mental retardation and communication disorders. Clinical and diagnostic examinations revealed severe pain with a high pain score, requiring comprehensive management. Given the patient's limited cooperation and the complexity of the procedure, treatment was performed under general anesthesia. The procedure included eliminating the source of infection, preserving the remaining teeth, and extracting teeth with poor prognosis. The entire procedure was completed in a single session without significant perioperative complications. Results: Post-procedure evaluation demonstrated a reduction in pain symptoms and improved eating ability, which positively impacted the patient's nutritional status. Patients with PVL who have intellectual disabilities and communication disorders require a specialized, individualized, and comprehensive approach to dental care. Conclusion: The use of general anesthesia is an effective and safe option for treating various dental infections in patients with limited cooperation, while improving quality of life through pain reduction, improved oral function, and improved nutritional status.
