Abstract

Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) are one of the most common occupational health problems experienced by online motorcycle taxi drivers, primarily due to repetitive physical activity, non-ergonomic working positions, and high work pressure. This study aims to analyze the factors associated with the incidence of MSDs among online motorcycle taxi drivers in the Grab Simpang Negara (GSN) Community, Medan Area District. The research used a cross-sectional design with a quantitative approach involving 77 respondents. The instruments used were the Nordic Body Map questionnaire to assess MSDs complaints and the HSE (Health and Safety Executive) questionnaire to evaluate work-related stress levels. Data analysis was conducted using univariate and bivariate methods (Chi-square test), and multivariate analysis using logistic regression. The results showed that 59.7% of respondents experienced symptoms of MSDs. There was a significant relationship between age, length of employment, and work stress level with the incidence of MSDs (p ≤ 0.05), with work stress being the dominant factor. These findings highlight the importance of preventive efforts through improved working conditions and integrated stress management for online motorcycle taxi drivers.

Abstract

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DMT2) is one of the non-communicable diseases with high prevalence in Indonesia and requires long-term treatment management. Pharmaceutical services have an important role in supporting DMT2 treatment, but the results of the initial survey show that some outpatients at Royal Prima Hospital Medan are not satisfied with the services provided. This study aims to analyze the relationship between the quality of pharmaceutical services and the level of satisfaction of DMT2 patients. This study used a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach, involving 100 DMT2 outpatient respondents. Data was collected using questionnaires that have been tested for validity and reliability. The results of the univariate analysis showed that most respondents rated the aspects of physical facilities (83%), reliability (82%), assurance (85%), and empathy (85%), but responsiveness was rated as poor (53%). As many as 90% of respondents were satisfied with the service as a whole. The results of bivariate analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between all dimensions of pharmaceutical service quality and patient satisfaction (p<0.05). Multivariate analysis identified that physical means (OR=2.240; p=0.027) and assurance (OR=2.767; p=0.007) were the most influential factors on patient satisfaction. This study concludes that the quality of pharmaceutical services has a significant effect on DMT2 patient satisfaction, with recommendations for increasing responsiveness as a top priority.

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.

Abstract

Dengue fever remains a significant public health issue in many countries. Its high prevalence highlights the need for effective tools like Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to help predict and manage the spread of the disease. This study aims to examine and summarize the role of GIS in mapping and communicating dengue transmission patterns. A bibliometric approach was used to collect relevant literature from databases such as Google Scholar, Scopus, and PubMed. Out of 440 identified articles, only 11 met the inclusion criteria. Data extracted included publication years (2013–2023), journal titles, study designs, populations, interventions, outcomes, and reported benefits of GIS in dengue-related research. Qualitative analysis was conducted by organizing and presenting key findings. The results show that GIS is valuable in identifying current outbreak areas, detecting high-risk zones through spatial clustering, improving the accuracy of case predictions, and supporting ongoing surveillance efforts. Additionally, GIS contributes to more informed decision-making in dengue prevention and control programs. Overall, GIS plays an essential role in understanding disease dynamics, enhancing early warning systems, and guiding public health responses to dengue outbreaks.

Abstract

Background: The effectiveness of Tuberculosis (TB) treatment outcomes for patients is currently suboptimal, posing a significant challenge to comprehensive efforts aimed at eradicating the disease. To address this problem, several studies have proposed that the implementation of health education initiatives have the potential to enhance treatment adherence and behavior of patients. Therefore, this study aims to assess the efficacy of health education programs using video and leaflet modalities.Method: This was a quasi-experimental study with a non-randomized pretest-posttest control group design. The sample population consisted of 85 TB patients at the Kenanga Health Center, Tegal Sari Mandala II, Medan Denai District, Medan City in 2022. Furthermore, the samples size was obtained using a purposive sampling method, involving 64 patients, which were evenly divided into two groups, namely intervention and control. The controls and intervention groups were educated using leaflet and video media, respectively. Pre-test and post-test were given to all the participants using the same instrument. A post-test was administered on the twenty-fifth day, where the materials were the same as those used at the pre-test stage. The data collected in this study were analyzed using the Wilcoxon, Mann-Whitney, and N-Gain tests.Results: There were significant differences between knowledges, attitudes, and practices of the participants before and after being given the interventions. Furthermore, knowledges, attitudes, and practices scores increased after the interventions were administered. Based on the results, health education using video (N-Gain score of 76.82) improved behavior of TB patients compared to the use of leaflet (N-Gain score of 49.74). After being educated, people with TB were expected to exhibit higher treatment adherence and adoption of healthy lifestyles.

Abstract

Elevated blood glucose levels are indicative of a chronic metabolic disorder known as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which necessitates long-term management through effective glycaemic control. Poor glycaemic control behaviours can elevate the risk of severe complications, diminish quality of life, and increase economic burden. This study aimed to analyse the determinants of glycaemic control behaviours in individuals with T2DM at Royal Prima Hospital Medan. A quantitative design employing a cross-sectional method was utilised. The study population comprised all patients with T2DM registered at Royal Prima Hospital Medan. A sample of 182 participants was recruited using consecutive sampling. Data were collected via questionnaires and secondary data from patient medical records. Data analysis included univariate analysis, chi-square tests, and logistic regression for bivariate analysis. The findings of this study demonstrated a significant association between medication adherence and glycaemic control behaviours in individuals with T2DM.

Abstract

Consumption of foods with a high glycaemic index (GI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) can negatively impact their glycaemic control. High-GI foods typically induce a rapid increase in blood glucose levels. This research aimed to identify the impact of high glycaemic index food consumption in individuals with T2DM. A narrative review methodology was employed. The inclusion criteria for this study were articles published in indexed journal databases (Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, Scopus Journal, PubMed, ProQuest) written in English, with cross-sectional and experimental designs. Nine articles published between 2008 and 2025 met the inclusion criteria. The findings of this review underscore the importance of understanding glycaemic index food consumption in patients with T2DM. Integrating low-GI foods into the diet of individuals with T2DM may represent a practical strategy for improving metabolic control and reducing the risk of hyperglycaemia. Improved glycaemic control, such as that achieved by consuming a very-low-carbohydrate, high-fat breakfast, substantially reduces postprandial (after-meal) glucose excursions, particularly in the morning, a period when individuals with type 2 diabetes frequently experience the highest blood glucose spikes. In conclusion, improved glycaemic control, such as that achieved by consuming a very-low-carbohydrate, high-fat breakfast, substantially reduces postprandial (after-meal) glucose excursions, particularly in the morning, a period when individuals with type 2 diabetes frequently experience the highest blood glucose spikes.

Abstract

Food safety is a crucial aspect of public health, aiming to prevent diseases resulting from the consumption of contaminated food or beverages. This study employed a quantitative research design with an analytical observational approach. The analytical observational method was used to determine the relationship between two independent variables—kitchen utensils and food handler hygiene—and the dependent variable, the microbial count in jumbo iced tea beverages sold along Ayahanda Street, Medan. The quantitative approach was chosen for its ability to measure data numerically and statistically analyze the relationships among variables. Data collection was conducted through direct observation using standardized assessment sheets. The kitchen utensil variable included evaluation of the cleanliness of plastic cups, straws, cool boxes, and cup sealer machines; washing procedures; equipment storage; cleaning methods for stainless steel, glass, and food-grade plastic tools; as well as cleaning frequency. The food handler hygiene variable was assessed based on hand hygiene before and after beverage preparation, nail cleanliness, cleanliness of clothing and aprons during work, and the use of personal protective equipment such as masks and gloves. Microbiological testing involved determining the Total Plate Count (TPC) and comparing the results with established safety standards. Observational and laboratory data were processed and analyzed statistically using the Chi-Square test with a 5% significance level (α = 0.05) to evaluate the effect of kitchen utensil conditions and food handler hygiene on microbial counts. The results showed that the majority of jumbo iced tea samples contained microbial levels within safe limits. Of the 30 samples tested, only 4 samples (13.3%) contained detectable microbes, while 26 samples (86.7%) showed no microbial growth based on the Total Plate Count method. There was no significant association between kitchen utensil cleanliness and microbial counts in jumbo iced tea sold on Ayahanda Street, Medan (p-value = 0.507). However, a significant relationship was found between food handler hygiene and microbial counts in the same products (p-value = 0.024).
