Abstract

Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among children under five in developing countries, including Indonesia. Poor nutritional status and unhealthy living environments are suspected contributors to the high incidence of ARI. Objective to determine the relationship between nutritional status and environmental factors with the incidence of ARI among toddlers in the working area of Gardu Harapan Public Health Center, Lais District, Musi Banyuasin Regency. This study used a cross-sectional design with a quantitative approach. A total of 105 mothers with children aged 0–59 months were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and medical records and analyzed using the Chi-Square test. Approximately 60% of children experienced ARI. There was a significant relationship between nutritional status and ARI (p = 0.003), and between environmental factors and ARI (p = 0.003). Children with poor nutritional status and living in unhealthy environments had a higher risk of developing ARI. Nutritional status and environmental conditions are significantly associated with ARI in toddlers. Nutritional interventions and environmental improvements should be conducted simultaneously to reduce ARI incidence.

Abstract

Tuberculosis remains a major public health problem globally and in Indonesia, with medication adherence playing a crucial role in treatment success and prevention of drug resistance. Non-adherence to tuberculosis treatment contributes to treatment failure, disease recurrence, and ongoing transmission. Previous studies have indicated that individual, familial, and supervisory factors influence adherence; however, evidence from primary healthcare settings remains limited. This study aimed to examine the relationship between patient knowledge, family support, and treatment supervisors with tuberculosis medication adherence among pulmonary tuberculosis patients in a primary healthcare setting. A quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted in the working area of UPTD Puskesmas Kemalaraja, Ogan Komering Ulu Regency, Indonesia, in July 2025. The study population consisted of 34 pulmonary tuberculosis patients, and total sampling was applied. Data were collected through structured interviews using validated questionnaires measuring medication adherence, patient knowledge, family support, and the role of treatment supervisors. Univariate analysis was used to describe variable distributions, while bivariate analysis was performed using the Chi-square test with a significance level of 0.05. The findings showed that most patients had moderate medication adherence (47.1%). Patient knowledge was predominantly at a moderate level (52.9%), family support was mostly high (50.0%), and treatment supervisor involvement was largely high (58.8%). Statistical analysis revealed significant associations between patient knowledge and medication adherence (p = 0.003), family support and medication adherence (p = 0.022), and treatment supervisors and medication adherence (p = 0.039). Patient knowledge, family support, and treatment supervisors were significantly associated with tuberculosis medication adherence. Higher knowledge levels, strong family support, and active treatment supervision were linked to better adherence outcomes.

Abstract

Adolescent mental health is a growing public health concern due to the increasing prevalence of psychological disorders among school-aged populations. One of the important factors influencing adolescents’ mental health development is parenting style. This study aimed to determine the relationship between parenting styles and mental health among junior high school adolescents. This study employed a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. The study population consisted of all students of SMP Muhammadiyah in the working area of the Kemalaraja Public Health Center, Ogan Komering Ulu Regency, in 2025, totaling 44 students. All students were included as respondents using a total sampling technique. Data were collected using a parenting style questionnaire and the DASS-21 instrument to assess adolescents’ mental health. Data analysis was conducted using univariate and bivariate analyses with the Chi-Square test at a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that most respondents experienced a democratic parenting style (38.6%), and the majority of adolescents were categorized as having poor mental health (59.1%). Statistical analysis indicated a significant relationship between parenting style and adolescents’ mental health (p = 0.003). This study concludes that parenting style is significantly associated with adolescents’ mental health. Therefore, collaborative efforts involving parents, schools, and health services are needed to improve adolescents’ mental health outcomes.
