Abstract

Head lice are the cause of the ectoparasitic disease pediculosis capitis. Both adults and children in school can have head lice. A public elementary school (SDN) 40 in Salero Village, Ternate City is utilized to illustrate how Pediculus capitis might spread. The purpose of this study is to characterize head lice infections caused by Pediculosis capitis in elementary school-aged children and to identify the risk factors that contribute to the spread of this infestation. This study uses a descriptive, analytical, correlative research design. The children in grades 4, 5, and 6 of SDN 40 comprised the study's population. The process of sampling involved tracking head lice infections according to factors such as age, gender, infection location, itching in the head, hair type, length, and frequency of hair washing r with Pediculus capitis infection (p-value = 0.001 and OR 0.102-0.570); long hair with Pediculus capitis infection (value = 0.000 and OR 101-0.569); hair washing interval with Pediculus capitis infection (p-value = 0.000 and OR 0.019-0.415) and use of combs together with Pediculus capitis infection (p-value = 0.001 and OR 00.141-0.789). Hair type did not have a significant relationship with Pediculus capitis infection with a p-value = 0.852 and OR 0.477-2.505.

Abstract

Introduction. This study aims to determine the level of population density of Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae as an effort to control dengue fever in Kasturian Village. Ternate City. Method. The sample of this study was larvae taken from 100 houses in Kasturian Village, North Ternate District, Ternate City that have containers both inside and outside the house. The data obtained were analyzed for larval index using the House Index (HI), Container Index (CI), and Breteau Index (BI) formulas. The relationship between habitat characteristics and population density of Aedes sp mosquito larvae was analyzed using the SPSS program.Results And Discussion . The survey results found that the characteristics of the Ae. aegypti mosquito larvae habitat consisted (TPA )container types including bathtubs, toilet tubs, drums, jugs, ablution water, cergen and buckets, and non containers including used cans (non0TPA), used tires, used glasses or bottles, flower vases, aquariums, dispenser containers, washbasins, gutters, and used drums. The type of container that is predominantly positive for larvae is the TPA container type, dark in color, found in the house and does not use a cover. The results of the analysis of the density index of Ae. aegypti mosquito larvae are in the moderate category for CI and BI, while HI is in the high category. Conclusion. This can be explained that Kasturian Village has the potential for dengue virus infection (DBD) which needs to be watched out for

Abstract

Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is the result of the interaction between the dengue virus, humans and environmental factors. Dengue fever can be spread through the bite of the Aedes aegypti mosquito. Knowledge related to larval habitat is very important to limit the spread of Dengue virus by reducing the population level of Ae. aegypti. This study aims to determine the potential for dengue virus transmission based on the Entomological Index and Maya Index. The study was conducted in 2 villages in Ternate City for 1 month. To calculate the entomological index value, it is done by observing the characteristics of the habitat, namely by observing the container that is the habitat of Ae. aegypti. The calculated parameters are Container Index (CI), Breteau Index (BI), House Index (HI), Density Figure (DF), and calculate the BRI and HRI values to determine the virtual index. Based on the results of the study, it is known that the entomological index value of Kalumata and North Mangga Dua villages is CI 20.71%, HI 84.0% and BI 361%, with the average DF being in the high category (DF = 7 and 9). The virtual nidex value is in the medium category, namely MI = 55%, with a large BRI value = 56% (high category) and HRI = 45.5% (medium category), meaning that Kalumata and North Mangga Dua villages have the potential for virus transmission to occur Dengue.
