Abstract

Helminthiasis remains a prevalent public health problem in Indonesia, particularly among elementary school-aged children who are vulnerable to infection due to poor environmental sanitation and inadequate hygiene practices. This study aims to analyze the relationship between helminthic infection and nutritional status among students at SDN Polenga Jaya, located in the working area of the Poli-Polia Public Health Center. This research employed a quantitative analytic method with a cross-sectional design and involved 32 respondents selected through total sampling. Data were collected through interviews, stool examinations to detect helminth eggs, and nutritional status assessment using the Body Mass Index-for-Age (BMI-for-age) index. Bivariate analysis using the Chi-square test indicated a significant association between helminthic infection and nutritional status (p = 0.012; α = 0.05). Conclusion: Children infected with helminths tend to have lower nutritional status compared to those who are not infected. Therefore, interventions through education, promotion of clean and healthy living behaviors, and regular health screenings are necessary to prevent helminthic infections and maintain optimal nutritional status in children.

Abstract

Nutritional problems are caused by rapid degradation which causes changes in nutritional status. This study aims to determine the factors that affect the nutritional needs of the elderly on Kodingareng Island in 2023. The research design was carried out in a descriptive-correlative way with a cross-sectional study approach with 49 respondents. The data collection tool is in the form of a questionnaire in the form of a dichotomy. The sample collection technique used is total sampling. The research results show that there is a relationship that influences nutritional needs on the nutritional status of the elderly, namely physical activity, mental condition, depression, disease treatment, and biological decline with a p-value <0.05. The conclusion is obtained that the nutritional status of the elderly is in the normal category, so it is recommended for the community to optimize attention to the food consumed so that they remain at normal nutritional status as well as in administering drugs so that absorption is more optimal.

Abstract

Background: Challenges in adolescent reproductive health, particularly the adolescent reproductive health triad (sexuality, HIV/AIDS, and substance abuse), are a global health concern. Traditional health education approaches are unable to address the learning preferences of Generation Z, who are digital natives. This requires culturally responsive and technology-based interventions. Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness of local wisdom-based digital storytelling in improving adolescents' knowledge and attitudes towards the reproductive triad. Method: A quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test design with a mixed-methods approach was used in this study. Adolescent girls were randomly assigned to either an experimental group (digital storytelling integrating Sipakatau-Sipakainge values) or a control group (conventional lecture and discussion). The study was conducted from August to September 2025 at two schools: SMP Negeri 3 Makassar and SD Pabundukan, Gowa Regency. Knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors related to the reproductive health triad were measured using a validated questionnaire. Qualitative data was collected through focus group discussions and in-depth interviews. Data analysis included descriptive and inferential statistics, with N-Gain scores calculated for effectiveness comparisons. Results: Digital storytelling demonstrated superior effectiveness with high N-Gain scores for HIV knowledge (0.71) and substance abuse (1.00) compared to conventional methods, which showed moderate to low scores (0.30 and 0.25). Sexuality knowledge achieved a moderate increase (0.50 vs. 0.33). Qualitative findings revealed a 76% preference for visual and interactive learning modalities. The digital approach demonstrated consistent effectiveness across all domains with no low scores, while conventional methods showed deficits in substance abuse education. Conclusion: Digital storytelling based on local wisdom significantly outperformed conventional health education in addressing adolescent reproductive health challenges among Generation Z learners.   Keywords: Adolescents; Attitudes; Digital Storytelling; Knowledge; Local Wisdom; Reproductive Health.   Pendahluan: Tantangan kesehatan reproduksi remaja, khususnya triad kesehatan reproduksi remaja (masalah seksualitas, HIV/AIDS, dan penyalahgunaan zat), menjadi perhatian kesehatan global. Pendekatan edukasi kesehatan tradisional tidak mampu mengatasi preferensi belajar generasi Z yang merupakan digital natives. Hal ini memerlukan intervensi yang responsif secara budaya dan berbasis teknologi. Tujuan: Untuk mengevaluasi efektivitas storytelling digital berbasis kearifan lokal meningkatkan pengetahuan dan sikap remaja terhadap triad reproduksi. Metode: Desain kuasi-eksperimental pre-test; post-test dengan pendekatan mixed-methods digunakan dalam penelitian ini. Remaja putri dibagi secara acak ke dalam kelompok eksperimen (storytelling digital yang mengintegrasikan nilai Sipakatau-Sipakainge) atau kelompok kontrol (ceramah-diskusi konvensional). Penelitian dilakukan pada buluan Agustus-September 2025 di dua sekolah yaitu SMP Neger 3 Makassar dan SD Pabundukan Kabupatan Gowa. Pengetahuan, sikap, dan perilaku terkait triad kesehatan reproduksi diukur menggunakan kuesioner tervalidasi. Data kualitatif dikumpulkan melalui diskusi kelompok terpumpun dan wawancara mendalam. Analisis data meliputi statistik deskriptif dan inferensial dengan menghitung skor N-Gain untuk perbandingan efektivitas. Hasil: Storytelling digital menunjukkan efektivitas superior dengan skor N-Gain kategori tinggi untuk pengetahuan HIV (0.71) dan penyalahgunaan zat (1.00) dibandingkan metode konvensional yang menunjukkan kategori sedang hingga rendah (0.30 dan 0.25). Pengetahuan seksualitas mencapai peningkatan sedang (0.50 vs 0.33). Temuan kualitatif mengungkapkan 76% preferensi terhadap modalitas pembelajaran visual dan interaktif. Pendekatan digital menunjukkan efektivitas konsisten di semua domain tanpa aspek berkategori rendah, sementara metode konvensional menunjukkan defisit dalam edukasi penyalahgunaan zat. Simpulan: Storytelling digital berbasis kearifan lokal secara signifikan lebih unggul dibandingkan edukasi kesehatan konvensional dalam mengatasi tantangan kesehatan reproduksi remaja pada pembelajar Generasi Z.   Kata Kunci: Kearifan Lokal; Kesehatan Reproduksi; Pengetahuan; Remaja; Sikap; Storytelling Digital.
