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. Keywords : Myopia, Derajat Myopia, Mahasiswa Kesehatan Masyarakat, Penggunaan Gadget, Faktor Genetik

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 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

Nutritional status in children under five remains a critical public health issue in Indonesia, characterized by high rates of stunting (21.6%) and wasting (7.9% in North Sumatra). Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) for the first six months is vital for optimal growth, but compliance is low. This study aimed to analyze the determinants of nutritional status, focusing on the differences between infants aged 0-6 months receiving exclusive breastfeeding and those receiving breastfeeding plus early complementary feeding (MPASI). This research employed a comparative analytical design with a total sampling of 40 mothers and their infants (0-6 months) in Kutambaru Village, Munte Subdistrict. The independent variables were breastfeeding status (exclusive vs. non-exclusive) and complementary feeding status. The dependent variable was infant nutritional status (weight-for-length). Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test. The results demonstrated a statistically significant association between exclusive breastfeeding and infant nutritional status (p = 0.019). Infants who received EBF were significantly more likely to have an optimal nutritional status. Complementary feeding also showed a significant association (p = 0.033). In conclusion, exclusive breastfeeding is the dominant factor significantly associated with optimal nutritional status in infants 0-6 months. Strengthening interventions to promote EBF is critical to prevent malnutrition.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) poses a grave threat to those afflicted, contributing significantly to the global mortality rate. Caused by the infectious bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, TB primarily targets the lungs, with Indonesia ranking second in its prevalence worldwide. This study aims to scrutinize factors associated with TB treatment discontinuation within the Subulussalam City Health Service Work Area in 2023, employing a quantitative, cross-sectional approach. A sample of 203 TB patients under treatment within the area was subjected to logistic regression and multiple logistic regression analyses. Findings revealed a correlation between treatment discontinuation and factors such as inadequate knowledge (p = 0.00; OR = 27.81) and adverse drug reactions (p = 0.02; OR = 13.05). Recommendations include enhancing patient education on TB risks to bolster awareness and deter treatment abandonment, instituting recognition programs within health centers to incentivize treatment completion, and acknowledging the proactive role of healthcare personnel in facilitating patient adherence.
