Abstract

Typhoid fever, caused by Salmonella typhi infection, remains a public health issue in developing countries, including Indonesia, with the highest prevalence among children aged 5–14 years. This study aimed to analyze the leukocyte profile of pediatric typhoid fever patients at Graha Medika Clinic, Banjar Regency. An observational analytic design with a cross-sectional approach was used. The sample included 526 pediatric patients with Widal titers ?1/320 who underwent complete blood tests. Results revealed that 71.3% of patients had normal leukocyte counts, while 22.4% showed leukocytosis and 6.3% had leukopenia. Simple linear regression analysis indicated no significant relationship between Widal titers and leukocyte levels (R² = 0.002). These findings suggest that most pediatric typhoid fever cases present with normal leukocyte counts. Among abnormal cases, leukocytosis was more common, though leukopenia was also observed.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is a growth failure condition in toddlers caused by chronic malnutrition, impacting physical and cognitive development as well as national productivity. In Banjarbaru City, stunting prevalence significantly decreased from 22,1% to 10,3% in 2023, likely due to factors such as high exclusive breastfeeding coverage, good maternal nutritional status, and adequate access to health services and sanitation.Objective: To analyze factors influencing the reduction of stunting in Banjarbaru City to support effective stunting prevention policies.Methods: The study was conducted in six public health center working areas with the lowest performance in Banjarbaru City in April 2024. This retrospective population-based case-control study involved children aged 12 to 59 months with stunting as cases and normal children as controls. Sample size was calculated using OpenEpi with a total of 78 samples in a 1:2 ratio. Cluster random sampling was used, and data were analyzed using chi-square tests or Fisher’s exact test when chi-square assumptions were not met.Results: The study found that only maternal anemia during pregnancy showed a significant association with stunting after controlling for other variables, with more than six times increased risk (aOR=6,54; 95% CI: 1,79–23,92; p=0,004). This indicates that maternal anemia is the dominant risk factor influencing stunting incidence in Banjarbaru.Conclusion: Maternal anemia affects stunting occurrence in Banjarbaru City, with pregnant women without anemia having a 7,5 times greater chance of having children who are not stunted.s.

Abstract

ABSTRAK Hipertensi merupakan penyakit degeneratif yang tinggi prevalensinya di kalangan lansia, terutama di wilayah pedesaan seperti Desa Cintapuri, Kabupaten Banjar. Penyakit ini sering tidak bergejala namun berpotensi menyebabkan komplikasi serius, sehingga diperlukan upaya pencegahan dini melalui pendekatan edukatif dan pemberdayaan masyarakat. Kegiatan ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan masyarakat tentang pencegahan hipertensi, memperkenalkan Personal Health Record (PHR) berbasis AI sebagai alat pemantau kesehatan, serta memanfaatkan kearifan lokal melalui pemanfaatan daun basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) dalam pembuatan makanan pendamping (nugget) yang potensial menurunkan tekanan darah. Kegiatan dilaksanakan melalui pendekatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat yang mencakup sosialisasi edukasi hipertensi, pelatihan penggunaan aplikasi PHR, serta pelatihan pembuatan nugget daun basil. Evaluasi dilakukan menggunakan kuesioner pre-test dan post-test untuk mengukur peningkatan pengetahuan, serta pemeriksaan kesehatan gratis sebagai pendukung. Terjadi peningkatan signifikan dalam pengetahuan peserta tentang faktor risiko, pencegahan, dan pengelolaan hipertensi pasca-sosialisasi. Masyarakat juga menunjukkan antusiasme terhadap penggunaan aplikasi PHR dan penerimaan positif terhadap nugget daun basil sebagai alternatif makanan fungsional. Integrasi edukasi, teknologi kesehatan digital, dan pemanfaatan tanaman lokal terbukti efektif dalam meningkatkan kesadaran dan kapasitas masyarakat dalam pencegahan hipertensi. Pendekatan ini berpotensi dikembangkan lebih lanjut sebagai model pemberdayaan kesehatan berbasis kearifan lokal. Kata Kunci: Hipertensi, Daun Basil, Personal Health Record, Pemberdayaan Masyarakat, Lansia.  ABSTRACT Hypertension is a highly prevalent degenerative disease among the elderly, particularly in rural areas such as Cintapuri Village, Banjar Regency. Often asymptomatic yet potentially fatal, it necessitates early preventive measures through community-based education and empowerment. This community service aims to enhance public knowledge on hypertension prevention, introduce an AI-based Personal Health Record (PHR) application for health monitoring, and leverage local wisdom by utilizing basil leaves (Ocimum basilicum L.) in functional food development—specifically, basil leaf-enriched nuggets—with potential antihypertensive properties. The initiative employed a community engagement approach, comprising health education sessions, PHR application training, and hands-on workshops for making basil nuggets. Evaluation was conducted using pre-test and post-test questionnaires to assess knowledge improvement, supported by free health screenings. A significant increase in participants’ understanding of hypertension risk factors, prevention, and self-management was observed post-intervention. High enthusiasm was also noted toward PHR adoption and positive acceptance of basil nuggets as a functional food alternative. The integration of health education, digital health tools, and local plant-based innovation proves effective in strengthening community capacity for hypertension prevention. This model holds promise for scalability as a culturally grounded, sustainable public health empowerment strategy. Keywords: Hypertension, Basil Leaf, Personal Health Record, Community Empowerment, Elderly.

Abstract

Strongyloidiasis, caused by the nematode Strongyloides stercoralis, can lead to severe complications, including hyperinfection syndrome and disseminated disease, particularly in immunocompromised individuals. However, data on its epidemiology and clinical significance in Indonesia remain scarce and outdated. The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of S. stercoralis, identify potential sources of infection, and explore associated risk factors. A case series of strongyloidiasis was identified during a soil-transmitted helminth survey conducted in two villages in Banjar District, South Kalimantan, Indonesia, between May and July 2024. S. stercoralis larvae were detected in four individuals out of 224 fecal samples (1.8%) using the Baermann funnel method, with confirmation via quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). All infected individuals were female farmers who reported nonspecific clinical symptoms. Subsequent environmental sampling revealed viable S. stercoralis larvae in soil from one of the villages. The detection of asymptomatic, infected individuals suggests that humans serve as reservoirs for ongoing transmission. In the context of open defecation practices, sustained transmission is likely unless targeted interventions are implemented. Urgent actions are needed, including community education and the provision of basic sanitation infrastructure such as latrines and access to clean water. These interventions are especially critical given that ivermectin—the first-line treatment for strongyloidiasis—is not currently available in Indonesia.

Abstract

Typhoid fever in children remains a health problem in developing countries, with hematological changes such as leukocyte and platelet abnormalities being frequently observed. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between leukocyte and platelet counts in pediatric patients with typhoid fever. A cross-sectional design was employed using secondary data from the Clinical Pathology Laboratory of RSDI Banjarbaru City. A total of 72 children aged 5–13 years who met the inclusion criteria (diagnosis of typhoid fever by Tubex TF, no prior antibiotic therapy) were analyzed. Leukocyte and platelet measurements were performed using a hematology analyzer, and data were analyzed using simple linear regression (SPSS version 24). Results showed a mean age of 8.2 years, with a higher proportion of males (59.7%). Leukocyte distribution was highly variable, ranging from severe leukopenia (1200–1248/mm³) to extremely high values. Platelet distribution was also wide, with very low values of 51,000/mm³ and high outliers up to 460,000/mm³. Regression analysis yielded the equation y = 13.74x + 118195 with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.4998, indicating that approximately 50% of the variability in platelet count could be explained by leukocyte count. Pathophysiologically, this relationship is mediated by proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6) and leukocyte-platelet aggregation induced by Salmonella typhi endotoxin. In conclusion, there is a moderate positive correlation between leukocyte and platelet counts in children with typhoid fever. These hematological parameters have the potential to serve as adjunctive diagnostic tools and for risk stratification, particularly in settings with limited blood culture facilities.
