Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a top-ranking communicable disease in terms of morbidity and mortality factors in Indonesia. Surabaya city has the highest TB cases in East Java in 2022, with a prevalence rate of 355 per 100,000 population. Objectives: This study will provide an overview of tuberculosis cases in Surabaya City from 2018 to 2022. Methods: The research employs a descriptive approach using an ecological study design. The aggregate data sourced from the Surabaya City Health Office's reports, with the analysis unit being the sub-district, are utilized in this study. Other articles serve as comparative sources for the findings in this research. Results: Throughout the years 2018 to 2022, the spread of TB was higher in males than females, with a prevalence exceeding 53%. Based on regions, the prevalence of TB varies across different areas and does not always correlate with regions with high population and density. In terms of time, there was an increase in TB cases before and after the COVID-19 pandemic which is in 2021, there were 4,628 TB cases, which then rose to 8,218 cases in 2022. Conclusion: TB cases burden in Surabaya City among males during 2018-2022 surpassed females, attributed partly to lifestyle choices and smoking, while population density isn't always the primary factor in TB prevalence due to its multifactorial nature; moreover, the resurgence of TB cases post-pandemic doesn't necessarily signify negativity, as it might indicate improved TB case reporting compared to the COVID-19 pandemic period.

Abstract

Background: By the end of 2022, it was recorded that 39 million people worldwide having HIV, with higher transmission and mortality rates among men. Data in Indonesia in 2022 showed 58.95% of 52,955 HIV cases and 74.46% of 9,905 AIDS cases in Indonesia were male. Based on UNICEF data, 2.8 million adolescents and childrens have HIV. The level of HIV knowledge among male adolescents is lower than female adolescents, where low knowledge about HIV is a major factor in the high prevalence of HIV in adolescents Objective: This study aims to understand the relationship between individual characteristics, sexual education communication, sexual behavior, and access to information on the level of knowledge about HIV/AIDS among Indonesian male adolescents. Methods: The study used quantitative methods with secondary data from the Indonesia Demographic Health Survey (IDHS) in 2017, the dependent variable was the level of knowledge about HIV/AIDS and the independent variables consisted of age, residence, highest level of education, sex education communcation with others, history of sexual intercourse, and history of access to information through radio, TV, newspapers or magazines, and the internet. Analysis using STATA 14 application. Bivariate analysis used chi-square and multivariate analysis used multiple logistic regression. Results: Age, residence, highest level of education, sex education communication with others, history of sexual intercourse, listening to the radio, using the internet, and reading newspapers or magazines have an association with the level of HIV/AIDS knowledge of male adolescents. Based on multivariate analysis, respondents aged 20-24 years, living in urban areas, not communicating about sex education with others, having had sexual intercourse, listening to the radio, using the internet, and reading newspapers or magazines at least once a week had higher odds of having a high level of knowledge about HIV/AIDS. Conclusion: Communication with the right person directly can avoid misinformation. Sexual  experience can broaden understanding of HIV/AIDS, including basic knowledge about prevention and potential impacts, before engaging in it. One of the main sources of knowledge is information, by accessing various HIV/AIDS information through radio, internet use or reading newspapers and magazines, can increase the level of HIV/AIDS knowledge.

Abstract

Background: Diarrheal diseases are still a serious digestive tract infection in Indonesia. The geographical areas with lower socioeconomic inequalities and water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) contribute to incline diarrheal disease among children under 5 years old. Purpose: This study aimed to map the distribution of diarrheal diseases among children under 5 years old and identify areas with higher risk in socioeconomic status and WASH. Methods: This study used secondary spatial data repository from Indonesia Demographic Health Survey 2017. This study used ecological approach to provide visual geographic distribution of diarrheal diseases among children under 5 years old, as well as to identify the risk based on the socioeconomic inequalities and WASH. The map production was performed by GIS software. Results: We found that provinces with higher percentage of diarrheal diseases in children also had higher percentage of population with the lowest socioeconomic status. Additionally, the provinces which had higher unimproved drinking water sources, unimproved sanitation facility, and limited handwashing facility, had the higher percentage of diarrheal disease among children under 5 years. Conclusion: The percentage of the lowest socioeconomic status and unimproved WASH might contribute to incline the percentage of diarrheal disease among children under 5 years. The government needs to consider the geographical area to decrease the diarrheal diseases among children under 5 years.

Abstract

Background : Insomnia is a pervasive global public health concern with significant implications for productivity and overall well-being, particularly among youth. Objective : This study aimed to assess the association between mental health factors (depression, anxiety, and stress) and selected modifiable lifestyle factors (physical activity and coffee consumption) with the incidence of insomnia in an urban Indonesian setting. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : A cross-sectional study was conducted on a sample of 111 youth in East Java, Indonesia. Data were collected using the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) and the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI). Bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test was performed. Results : The prevalence of insomnia in this study was 41.4% while depression, anxiety, and stress were reported at 12.6%, 23.4%, and 0.9% respectively. Anxiety was significantly associated with the incidence of insomnia. Youth classified with anxiety were associated with a twofold increase in the risk of insomnia (PR=1.916; 95%CI=1.276-2.879; p=0.009) compared to those without anxiety. No statistically significant association was observed between stress(p=0.414), depression (p=0.324), physical activity level (p=0.697), and coffee consumption status (p=0.389) with insomnia. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : The study concludes that in this population, anxiety is the most critical and isolated mental health determinant of insomnia, while behavioral factors such as physical activity and coffee consumption did not emerge as significant risk factors. These findings emphasize the necessity for targeted public health strategies focusing on anxiety screening and early management to alleviate the burden of insomnia among youth in similar urban settings.

Abstract

Background : Social independence in women, climate change, and stunting are interconnected issues through a series of pathways that can create a cycle of vulnerability and adverse health impacts on children, especially in developing countries. Objective : The aims of this study are to explore the impact of women’s social independence and climate factors on stunting in children under 5 years of age in East Java Province, Indonesia. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : This study used secondary data from a nationally representative 2023 Indonesian Health Survey sample. Data from 3,928 children under five and their parents were analysed. Descriptive analysis and multivariable logistic regression adjusting for complex sampling design were used to examine the risks of contributing factors, controlling for potential confounders. Results : Children of mothers who had medium and higher social independence showed a reduced risk of stunting incidence, compared to children of mothers who had lower social independence. Stunting decreased by 21.61% for 1°C increase in average temperature. Meanwhile, stunting increased by 12% for 1% increase in average humidity, 0.4% for1 mm increase in average rainfall, and 1% for1 hour increase in sunshine duration. Increased stunting risks were also associated with poor environmental sanitation, diarrheal diseases, and older age. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : The study indicates that women’s social independence can reduce stunting incidence among children under five in Indonesia. While decreased temperature and increased rainfall, humidity and duration of sunshine could bring more stunting incidence in the study population. These findings highlight the importance of developing integrative preventive strategies to reduce stunting among Indonesian children under-5.
