Abstract

Background: Gastritis is an inflammation of the gastric mucosa caused by irritation or infection and commonly affects young adults, including university students. Lifestyle changes, poor sleep quality, and anxiety are considered contributing factors to the incidence of gastritis among students. Objective: To determine the factors associated with the incidence of gastritis among students at Universitas Graha Edukasi Makassar in 2025. Methods: This study employed an analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 37 respondents were selected using simple random sampling from Nursing and Midwifery undergraduate students. The instruments included a gastritis questionnaire, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) to assess sleep quality, and the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS) to measure anxiety levels. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test with a significance level of 0.05. Results: The prevalence of gastritis was 62.2%. Respondents with good sleep quality accounted for 62.2%, while 37.8% had poor sleep quality. Anxiety levels were categorized as mild (16.2%), moderate (70.3%), and severe (13.5%). A significant relationship was found between sleep quality and gastritis incidence (p = 0.000 < 0.05). However, no significant relationship was found between anxiety and gastritis incidence (p = 0.778 > 0.05).

Abstract

Background: Prolonged labor is one of the most common complications experienced by women during childbirth and remains a significant contributor to maternal and neonatal morbidity. Globally, prolonged labor is estimated to occur in approximately 17% of all deliveries, with nearly 70% of these cases requiring medical interventions such as cesarean section. In Indonesia, the incidence of prolonged labor is estimated at around 9% of all deliveries. Maternal factors such as age and parity are considered important determinants influencing labor outcomes. Therefore, identifying the relationship between these factors and prolonged labor is essential to improve maternal health services. This study aimed to determine the association between maternal age and parity and the incidence of prolonged labor at the Kassi-Kassi Community Health Center in 2024. Methods: This study employed an analytic approach using a cross-sectional design. The population consisted of mothers who delivered at the Kassi-Kassi Community Health Center in 2024. A total of 23 mothers were selected as the study sample using probability (random) sampling techniques. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test to examine the relationship between maternal age and parity with the incidence of prolonged labor. A significance level of p < 0.05 was applied. Results: The analysis showed a significant association between maternal age and the incidence of prolonged labor (p = 0.001; p < 0.05). Additionally, maternal parity was significantly associated with prolonged labor (p = 0.002; p < 0.05). These findings indicate that both maternal age and parity are important factors related to the occurrence of prolonged labor at the Kassi-Kassi Community Health Center. Conclusion: Maternal age and parity are significantly associated with the incidence of prolonged labor at the Kassi-Kassi Community Health Center in 2024. Strengthening maternal care services, particularly through closer monitoring of high-risk pregnant women, is recommended to reduce the occurrence of prolonged labor and improve maternal health outcomes.
