Abstract

Background: Malaria remains a public health challenge in eastern Indonesia, especially in remote areas like Manusa Village, where access to healthcare is limited. The community relies on traditional treatment using eye drops made from Kenar leaves (Kleinhovia hospita L.). The purpose of this study is to explore, from an epidemiological perspective, the use of Kenar leaves as a primary component in the formulation of traditional malaria remedies within the community of Manusa Village is lacking.Methods: This study employed a quantitative descriptive design with a cross-sectional approach. Data were obtained through structured questionnaires and phytochemical analysis of Kenar leaves. A total of 102 respondents voluntarily participated in the study.Results: Among respondents from 102 respondents, 67,6% had experienced malaria, and 68,6% reported using Kenar leaf eye-drops. Use was significantly associated with prior malaria history (POR = 15,057; p < 0,001) and age group 26-45 years (POR = 17,813; p < 0,001). Conversely, respondents with current malaria symptoms were less likely to use the drops (POR = 0,042; p = 0,002). Twice-weekly use was associated with better recovery outcomes (POR = 0,168; p = 0,003). The majority (84,3%) reported mild side effects, such as transient eye irritation. Phytochemical analysis confirmed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, steroids, and tannins compounds with known antimalarial properties.Conclusion: This study provides new evidence linking traditional knowledge and community-based practices with malaria self-treatment, highlighting implications for health promotion strategies.

Abstract

Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a growing global health concern. In Semarang City, the prevalence increased from 5.97% to 6.58% between 2023 and 2024 at Miroto Public Health Center, with Miroto Subdistrict having the highest rate (6.44%). Identifying dominant risk factors is essential for targeted prevention..Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 107 respondents aged ≥30 years using accidental sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires. The dependent variable was T2DM incidence (diagnosed by health professionals), while independent variables included age, sex, BMI, blood pressure, history of hypertension and heart disease, smoking, alcohol use, physical activity, and dietary habits. Bivariate analysis was conducted using Chi-square tests, followed by multivariate analysis using binary logistic regression. Prevalence Odds Ratios (POR) and 95% confidence intervals were reported.Result: Significant associations were found between T2DM and history of hypertension (POR=11.389), physical activity duration <30 minutes (POR=8.167), and smoking (POR=2.688). These variables remained significant in the multivariate model, indicating their dominant influence.Conclusion : Modifiable factors such as hypertension, low physical activity, and smoking are key contributors to T2DM in this urban setting. Integrated community-based interventions including hypertension screening, structured exercise programs, smoking cessation support, and dietary education should be strengthened at the primary care level. Future research should consider longitudinal approaches to better establish causality and explore sociocultural determinants.

Abstract

This study analyzed traditional eye drop treatment based on local knowledge in Manusa Village, West Seram Regency, which is known as a malaria endemic area. The research method used a descriptive design with a cross-sectional approach, the validity of the instrument showed a calculated r value > r table, and reliability showed a Cronbach's Alpha value = 0.754. The results of the study revealed that 81.4% of the community believed this treatment was safe and passed down from generation to generation, 95.1% did not report any dangerous reactions, and 100% believed Kenar leaves could cure malaria. As many as 48% of the community reported no longer being positive for malaria after using this method. This traditional treatment is considered effective, safe, and based on local resources.
