Abstract

Low back pain (LBP) is one of the musculoskeletal disorders as a result of incorrect ergonomics. The impact caused by low back pain is bad posture, stiffness, pinched nerve, and muscle weakness. This study aims to determine the relationship between ages, years of service, length of sitting, work posture, and the chair’s ergonomics with complaints of low back pain in tailors at Pasar Petisah, Kota Medan, with 35 workers based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The research tools are interviews, observations, and filling out questionnaires. This sampling technique is used purposive sampling methods. Data were analyzed using the STATCAL application with a 5% chi-square test. Based on the result, we concluded that there is a long relationship between ages (p=0,02), years of service (p=0,04), length of sitting (p=0,01), and work posture (p=0,03) with the occurrence of low back pain tailors. Tailors in the Petisah Market in Medan City are at risk for complaints of low back pain based on age, long years of service, a risky length of sitting, and a risky work posture. If the workers ignore low back pain, the impact is the emergence of serious problems such as stiffness in the spine, fractures, pinched nerves, and can even cause death.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia. This study aimed to analyze the effect of physical exercise on blood glucose levels in patients with Type 2 DM at the Medan Johor Public Health Center. This analytical observational study utilized a case-control design and involved 34 respondents, divided into a case group (with uncontrolled blood glucose levels) and a control group (with controlled blood glucose levels). Data on physical activity, including frequency, duration, and intensity of exercise, were obtained through interviews using the GPAQ questionnaire, while blood glucose level data were sourced from medical records. The results showed a significant relationship between physical activity (p=0.028), frequency of physical exercise (p=0.006), duration of physical exercise (p=0.015), and intensity of physical exercise (p=0.034) with blood glucose levels. Physical exercise performed at least three times a week, for a minimum duration of 30 minutes per session, and at an appropriate intensity proved effective in controlling blood glucose levels in patients with Type 2 DM. This study emphasizes the importance of incorporating physical exercise into the management plan for Type 2 DM.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of work commitment and motivation on nurse performance at Muyang Kute Regional General Hospital, Bener Meriah Regency, Indonesia, using an analytical survey with a cross-sectional design. A total sampling of 49 nurses from inpatient wards participated in the study. Data were collected via questionnaires measuring work commitment (Guttman scale), work motivation (Guttman scale), and nurse performance (Likert scale). Bivariate analysis using Fisher’s Exact Test revealed a significant association between both work commitment and nurse performance (p = 0.000) and work motivation and nurse performance (p = 0.003). Nurses with high commitment demonstrated significantly higher performance, with 81.8% exhibiting high performance compared to 25.9% of nurses with low commitment. Similarly, nurses with high work motivation showed significantly higher performance, with 70.4% categorized as high performers compared to 27.3% of those with low motivation. These findings highlight the critical role of work commitment and motivation in enhancing nurse performance, suggesting that interventions aimed at improving these factors could lead to significant improvements in healthcare delivery at Muyang Kute Hospital. The study underscores the importance of addressing factors that influence nurse commitment and motivation to optimize patient outcomes and organizational success.

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of healthcare service quality on patient satisfaction among hypertensive outpatients at Muyang Kute Regional General Hospital. Employing a quantitative, cross-sectional design, data were collected from 79 patients using a questionnaire assessing five service quality dimensions (tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, empathy, and assurance) and overall patient satisfaction. Bivariate analysis, utilizing the chi-square test, was conducted to examine relationships between service quality dimensions and patient satisfaction. Results indicated generally positive perceptions of service quality dimensions, with tangibles, reliability, and assurance rated highly. However, empathy and responsiveness showed higher dissatisfaction rates. Notably, only assurance demonstrated a statistically significant association with patient satisfaction (p=0.002), where patients perceiving "Good" assurance were more likely to report satisfaction. Overall patient satisfaction was mixed, with 54.43% reporting satisfaction and 45.57% reporting dissatisfaction. The study highlights the critical role of staff competence and patient confidence (assurance) in driving satisfaction. Recommendations include targeted interventions to improve empathy and responsiveness, continuous monitoring of all service quality dimensions, and further investigation into potential underlying factors affecting overall satisfaction.

Abstract

Background: Diarrhoea remains a significant health concern among school-aged children, with snacking habits playing a potential role in its occurrence. Aim: This study aimed to examine the relationship between snacking habits (frequency, type, and consumption practices) and the incidence of diarrhoea among primary school students at SDN 060834 Medan Petisah. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 56 students in grades IV–VI. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire assessing snacking habits and diarrhoea incidence. Statistical analysis employed chi-square tests to determine associations. Results: The majority of respondents (60.7%) reported frequent snacking, with 58.9% exhibiting healthy snacking practices. No significant association was found between the frequency (p=0.549) or type (p=0.122) of snacks consumed and diarrhoea. However, unhealthy snacking practices showed a significant association with diarrhoea incidence (p=0.001), with 64.3% of students engaging in unhealthy practices experiencing diarrhoea. Conclusion: Unhealthy snacking practices significantly increase the risk of diarrhoea among schoolchildren. Interventions promoting hygienic and nutritious snacking habits are essential to reduce diarrhoea prevalence in this population.

Abstract

Humanity and other living organisms coexist within the environment. Rivers, as essential components of the environment, provide critical benefits for human survival, including supplying water for daily use, supporting fisheries, and facilitating water transportation. However, human activities frequently exert negative impacts on river ecosystems, such as the disposal of solid and industrial waste. This study aimed to identify the factors influencing community waste disposal practices in the Deli River, Petisah Village, in 2023. Employing a quantitative, descriptive-analytical cross-sectional survey design, the study population comprised 250 residents residing along the Deli River, from which a sample of 154 participants was selected through simple random sampling. Bivariate analyses were conducted using the Chi-square test. The findings demonstrate significant associations between waste disposal behavior and knowledge (p=0.004), attitude (p=0.004), practices (p<0.001), and infrastructure (p=0.008). Furthermore, logistic regression analysis identified infrastructure as the strongest predictor of waste disposal behavior, indicating that inadequate infrastructure increases the likelihood of respondents disposing of waste into the river.

Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus affects over 415 million people globally and is projected to reach 642 million by 2040, with diabetic retinopathy (DR) becoming a major cause of preventable blindness. Specific background: In Indonesia, DR prevalence remains high, yet early detection is often delayed, particularly in community and private clinic settings. Knowledge gap: Most studies on DR risk factors have been conducted in tertiary hospitals or general populations, while evidence from community-based ophthalmology clinics is limited. Aim: This study analyzed factors associated with DR complications among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients at Klinik Mata Vision Max. Results: Using a case–control design with 60 participants (30 cases, 30 controls), multivariate logistic regression revealed that uncontrolled blood glucose (OR = 7.5, p = 0.007), diabetes duration >5 years (OR = 6.4, p = 0.016), hypertension (OR = 4.5, p = 0.043), and male sex (OR = 3.97, p = 0.054) significantly increased the risk of DR, while diet showed no direct effect. Novelty: This is the first systematic case–control study in a community-based eye clinic in Indonesia addressing DR risk factors. Implications: Findings highlight the urgency of integrating DR screening into primary care, emphasizing glycemic control, hypertension management, and targeted patient education to reduce preventable blindness.Highlight : Uncontrolled blood glucose is the dominant factor. Age >45 years and DM duration >5 years increase risk. Hypertension is significantly associated with diabetic retinopathy.

Abstract

General Background: Myopia is a leading global vision disorder affecting quality of life and projected to impact over half the world’s population by 2050. Specific Background: Among university students, behavioral factors such as prolonged near work and gadget use, alongside genetic predisposition, are recognized contributors, yet findings remain inconsistent, particularly in public health student populations. Knowledge Gap: Limited studies have specifically identified dominant determinants of myopia severity in public health students, a group expected to champion health promotion. Aims: This study aimed to determine the behavioral and genetic factors most strongly associated with myopia severity among Public Health students at Universitas Prima Indonesia. Results: Using a cross-sectional analytic design with 74 diagnosed myopic students, multivariate logistic regression revealed significant associations with reading distance <30 cm, gadget use >3 hours/day, and family history, with genetic factors showing the highest odds ratio (AOR = 8.567, p = 0.002). Gender was not significant. Novelty: The study uniquely combines primary and secondary data, integrates multivariate analysis, and aligns findings with the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion and SDG 3. Implications: Results support campus-based preventive strategies, including visual hygiene education, gadget use reduction, and early screening for genetically at-risk students.Highlight : Genetic factors are the most dominant determinant of the degree of myopia. Hours of gadget use and close reading increase the risk of myopia. Health promotion on campus is important for preventing the progression of myopia.
