Abstract

Background: Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) cannot be left without action because it can cause severe stomach irritation in the long term, leading to stomach ulcers and infection. Purpose: This study aims to analyze factors related to the incidence of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) in students. Methods: This type of research in analytical survey research. The design of this research is case control. The population in this study were students of Universitas Prima Indonesia, class of 2021, in the public health study program and the information systems study program, totaling 1,473 students. The sample in this stufy was a portion of the student population which was divided into case and control groups. Data analysis was carried out using the Chi-square test to determine the description and relationship of risk factors with the incidence of GERD. Results: The result showed that the eating habits variable (p = 0,000; OR = 19,12; 95% CI = 6,376-57,369), coffee consumption variable (p = 0,001; OR = 4,93; 95% CI = 1,986-12,262), stress level variable (p = 0,001; OR = 4,52; 95% CI = 1,952-10,508), and body mass index variable (p = 0,000; OR = 5,63; 95% CI = 2,362-13,420) has a significant relationship with the incidence of GERD in students. Conclusion: reducing the consumption of ready-to-eat food and reducing the lifestyle of modern society which consumes excessive coffee and doing positive things to maintain stress levels are very important things to increase public awareness in order to minimize the risk of GERD.

Abstract

Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (type 2 DM) is a chronic disease in adults due to the body's resistance to insulin. Purpose: This study aims to analyze the determinants of the incidence of type 2 DM. Methods: The study design was a case-control study. The case population in this study was patients with type 2 DM who had been diagnosed by doctors based on data available in the medical records of Bintang Bayu Health Center. In contrast, the control population was patients who did not suffer from type 2 DM. The study's sample size was 138 people, with a ratio of cases to controls of 1:2. The case group consisted of 46 people, and the control group comprised 92 people. The sampling technique used was nonprobability sampling, namely, consecutive sampling. Questionnaire distribution was the primary method of data collection. The frequency distribution of each variable was calculated before analyzing the data using Chi-square and logistic regression. Results: Diet (p=0.001; OR=4.7; 2.231–10.154), knowledge (p=0.033; OR=2.3; 1.129–4.785), physical activity p = 0.010; OR = 2.8; 1.342 – 6.032), hypertension (p=<0.001; OR=4.9; 2.089–11.784) were significant to the incidence of type 2 DM. The most dominant variable was hypertension, p=<0.001; OR=7.3 (2.581-20.680). Conclusions: Poor diet, poor knowledge, light physical activity, and hypertension were significant factors in the incidence of type 2 DM.
