Abstract

Background: There is a higher prevalence of mental distress in rural areas compared to urban areas in Indonesia. The rural areas of Indonesia have various socio-demographic and sophisticated cultural characteristics, but less exposed to foreign cultures. Thus, the study about the prevalence, associated factors, and predictors of mental distress in rural areas is necessary.Purpose: This study aimed to identify the population's status and related factors of mental distress in rural areas in Indonesia.Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted to achieve the aims of the study. An Indonesian version of the Self-Rated Questionnaire, consisting of 20 items, was used to measure mental distress status of population in rural areas in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. A number of 872 records were included and analyzed using both univariate and bivariate analyses in this study.Results: The prevalence of mental distress in this population was 6%. The correlated factors of mental distress were age (χ2=6.93, p=0.01), gender (χ2=0.07, p=0.03), occupation (χ2=0.26, p=0.02), housing dimension (χ2=5.45, p=0.02), and illness status (χ2=0.01, p<0.01).Conclusion: The prevalence of mental distress in rural areas of Indonesia is relatively lower than that of the national level. Future mental health programs may be focused on improving mental health on the elderly, male, vulnerable workers, overcrowded housing, and people who got a chronic illness.

Abstract

The increasing incidence of falls in the elderly has become a global health issue. The development of wearable electronic device technology is able to monitor daily activities, measure step counts, physical activity levels, and even sleep patterns of the elderly, while providing early warnings when changes occur that may increase the risk of falls. The aim is to see the effectiveness of using wearable electronic devices in preventing the risk of falls in the elderly in the community. PICO in this study is Population: Community-dwelling elderly, Intervention: wearable electronic device, Comparisons: none, and Outcome: fall prevention. Researchers used 3 search data sources, namely Embase, Pubmed, and Science Direct. The inclusion and exclusion criteria of this study are literature published in electronic data sources from 2018-2023, is a type of quantitative research, the elderly population in the community, English language and available in full text. This literature review includes ten articles that discuss the utilization of wearable electronic device technology, the types of wearable devices used include Inertial Measurement Units (IMU), biosensors, and accelerometers to evaluate the mobility, gait, and balance of the elderly. This literature review shows that wearable electronic device technology can effectively detect falls and motorize the incidence of falls in the elderly

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to identify and analyze interventions implemented to address the impact of climate change on adolescents' mental health. Methods: This systematic review was conducted using PRISMA guidelines. A literature search was conducted across four primary databases — PubMed, ScienceDirect, EBSCO, and Scopus —with keywords related to interventions, climate change, and adolescent mental health. Inclusion criteria include studies involving adolescents aged 10-18 years and featuring an original research design published within the last five years. Of the 1,579 studies identified, 22 articles were assessed for eligibility, and seven underwent quantitative synthesis. Results: Suggest that effective environmental education interventions can increase understanding and reduce anxiety among adolescents. Conclusion: To address the impacts of mental health on adolescents, interventions such as pro-environmental interventions, education, and augmented reality can be employed.

Abstract

Introduction: Dementia can cause disability, in addition to physical, mental, and financial stress for caregivers, and affect the nation’s healthcare system and economy. Efforts are needed to improve the quality of life of people with dementia involving various sectors, especially elderly cadres. Elderly cadres are volunteers who provide screening and health education for elderly persons at the community level. Accordingly, it is crucial to identify the knowledge levels about dementia in elderly cadres to improve public awareness and interventions concerning this topic. This study aimed to determine the level of knowledge of elderly cadres about dementia. Methods: This quantitative study was conducted with a cross-sectional design. There were 103 elderly cadres recruited using convenience sampling from November to December 2022. A demographic questionnaire and Dementia Knowledge Assessment Scale (DKAS) were used to collect the data. The data were analyzed using Spearman’s rho and Mann Whitney with significance set as p < 0.05. Results: The median score of the elderly cadres’ knowledge score was 22 (minimum-maximum = 0-44). Elderly cadres’ knowledge was related significantly to training about dementia (p = .002). There was no significant correlation between elderly cadres' knowledge and age (p = .271), gender (p = .073), and education level (p = .106). Conclusions: In general, the knowledge of elderly cadres about dementia is relatively low. However, there was a significant change in knowledge scores after dementia training, so a program to increase understanding about dementia through training is recommended for elderly cadres.
