Abstract

Introduction: This study investigated the relationship between food addiction and stress among clinical rotation medical students during the COVID-19 pandemic. While prior research has examined the impact of mental and physical well-being on medical students, the exploration of food addiction in this demographic has been limited. Methods: The survey study includes 355 clinical-level medical students. Stress levels are assessed using the Coronavirus Stress Measure (CSM) questionnaire, while food addiction is evaluated with the Yale Food Addiction Scale 2.0 questionnaire. Comparative analysis was performed to see the association between food addiction and the stress level related to COVID-19. Results: Both questionnaires indicate good validity and reliability measures. Medical students exhibited lower stress levels during the pandemic than the general population. Approximately 30.1% of students showed signs of food addiction, with most cases classified as mild. Food addiction was significantly higher among women, partially influenced by the dominant presence of female students. The study reveals a significant connection between food addiction and stress levels among medical students (p<0.001). Those with moderate and severe food addiction experience notably higher stress (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study highlights the prevalence of food addiction among medical students and its association with increased stress levels during the COVID-19 pandemic. It underscores the need for further research and support mechanisms to address food addiction and stress management among medical students, ultimately promoting their overall well-being and academic success.

Abstract

Since the launch of Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI) in 1988, global polio eradication eforts have succeeded in reducing polio cases by 99% and eradicated polio virus type 2 in 2015. Although Indonesia has obtained free-polio certifcation in 2014, polio outbreaks still occur. Recent polio outbreak involved circulating vaccine-derived poliovirus (cVDPV) and vaccine-derived poliovirus type 2 (VDPV2), highlighting weaknesses in fuctuating immunization coverage and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which disrupted routine immunization programs. The government’s response through the National Immunization Week (PIN) and the Outbreak Response Immunization (ORI) strategy aims to address these outbreaks, but challenges such as logistical difculties, community education, and a shortage in human resources remain signifcant. Indonesia also faces issues in ensuring consistent immunization coverage, especially in high-risk areas like Papua; difculty of communication and challenges in reaching remote areas add complexity to the fght against polio. A holistic approach involving various sectors and stakeholders, along with enhanced communication and coordination eforts, is key to addressing the future threat of polio.
