Abstract

Background : Stunting is a condition of chronic nutritional problems that causes failure to thrive in children and brain development is not in accordance with children at the age they should be. Stunting is a chronic malnutrition problem caused by inadequate nutritional intake for a long time due to feeding that is not in accordance with nutritional needs. Objective : The problem of stunting which is currently a problem has an impact on various aspects, one of which is a decrease in the productivity of Human Resources (HR) in an area. Based on the results of the Indonesia Nutrition Status Survey (SSGI) in 2021 conducted by the Ministry of Health, the stunting prevalence rate in Indonesia in 2021 was 24.4%, or decreased 6.4% from 30.8% in 2018. This study aims to determine the description of factors the risk of stunting in children under five in RT 02 and RT 04 Simpang Pasir Village, Paran District, Samarinda City. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : This type uses a cross sectional design, with a total sample of 20 samples. Data was collected using an instrumental questionnaire and then performed univariate analysis and descriptive test. Results : The results obtained are to know the risk factors regarding stunting in toddlers in the area of RT 02 and RT 04 Simpang Pasir Village, Paran District, Samarinda City. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : Based on the results of research conducted in the neighborhood units (RT) 02 and 04 of Simpang Pasir Village, Paran District, Samarinda City, it can be concluded that several risk factors contribute to stunting in toddlers. Through a cross-sectional design approach and univariate and descriptive analyses of 20 samples, it was found that stunting remains a chronic nutritional problem that impacts children's physical growth and brain development. These findings reinforce the importance of meeting nutritional needs from an early age and appropriate interventions to reduce stunting prevalence rates, especially at the smallest level, such as neighborhood associations.

Abstract

Seafarers are a highly mobile maritime workforce vulnerable to risky sexual behaviors and limited access to HIV/AIDS testing and counseling. The dynamic port environment, combined with social and behavioral factors, heightens the risk of HIV transmission. Objective : to synthesize research findings on individual, social, and structural factors influencing HIV/AIDS prevention behaviors among seafarers in various ports in Indonesia and abroad. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : A Narrative Review was conducted using PubMed, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect databases for studies published from 2019 to 2025. Eligible studies included quantitative or qualitative research addressing risk factors, preventive behaviors, or access to HIV-related health services among seafarers. Studies focusing solely on technical shipping aspects were excluded. Twenty-six articles met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed descriptively Results : Risky behaviors among seafarers were shaped by individual (knowledge, attitude, condom use), social (peer support, influence of sex workers, docking duration, marital status), and structural factors (health service access, port policy, education). Condom use was the most dominant protective factor, while knowledge alone did not guarantee preventive behavior. Institutional and peer support promoted safe practices, but limited screening and counseling services at ports remained barriers. Cross-sector collaboration and free services supported better prevention outcomes Conclusion/Lesson Learned : Effective HIV/AIDS prevention among seafarers requires multidimensional interventions addressing behavioral, social, and policy aspects. Strengthening port health services, enhancing education, and expanding counseling and testing access are essential to reduce HIV risk in maritime populations

Abstract

Background : Health worker training is a strategic effort to improve the competence, professionalism, and readiness of health workers in facing health service challenges. Research. Objective : This study aims to evaluate the application of training methods, participant distribution, and the effectiveness of both methods in improving the competence of health workers, as well as identifying gaps (GAP) in the implementation of training. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : The research approach is descriptive and evaluative. Data were collected from 2247 trainees based on district/city, gender, employment status, profession, and training method. Results : Large cities such as Samarinda, Balikpapan, and Kutai Kartanegara dominated the number of participants, while remote districts were fewer. The majority of participants were women (77.9%) and ASN (69.5%). The dominant professions are nurses (29.6%) and midwives (24.3%), while minority professions (psychiatrists, medical records, nurse anaesthetists) are very few (<1%). The Classical Method is still dominant (90.5%) with 80% interactive, while the new Blended Learning is 9.48% with 20% interactive. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : Training at UPTD Bapelkes in East Kalimantan Province has reached various professions and districts, but there are still gaps in the distribution of participants, training methods, and participation of minority professions.

Abstract

Background: The elderly population in Indonesia has increased rapidly, accompanied by health challenges such as malnutrition, which can lead to sarcopenia and physical weakness. Body weight is one indicator of nutritional status, which can be influenced by characteristics and nutrient intake, such as protein. This study aims to analyze the influence of age, gender, education and protein intake on nutritional status in the elderly in Indonesia. Subjects and Method: A cross-sectional study of the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS-5) involved 2,908 individuals aged 60 and above. Sociodemographic variables (age, gender, education level, and marital status) were measured using a questionnaire, while protein intake was measured using a Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). Bivariate data analysis was used to determine the relationship between age, gender, and protein intake and nutritional status and logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate factors influencing poor nutritional status. Results: Age ≥ 71 years (aOR= 2.14; 95%CI= 0.56 to 0.96; p&lt;0.001), male (aOR=1.43; 95%CI= 0.16 to 0.55; p= 0.003) increase the risk of poor nutritional status, while education &gt; Senior High School (aOR=0.22; 95%CI= -0.22 to -0.77; p&lt;0.001), and high protein intake (aOR= 0.80; 95%CI= -0.42 to -0.02; p =0.033) are protective factors for poor nutritional status in the elderly. Conclusion: Age over 70 years and being male increases the risk of poor nutritional status, while high levels of education and protein intake reduce the risk of poor nutritional status in the elderly in Indonesia.
