Abstract

Introduction: Primary headaches, including migraines and tension-type headaches (TTH), are characterized by pain in the head without any underlying health issues. Poor sleep quality is a significant factor contributing to the occurrence of these headaches. Despite the prevalence of these conditions, many individuals neglect them and fail to seek appropriate treatment. This study analyzed the relationship between sleep quality and primary headache. Methods: This analytical research utilized a cross-sectional approach. Primary data were collected directly from respondents using two validated questionnaires: the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) to assess sleep quality and the Headache Screening Questionnaire (HSQ) to identify primary headache characteristics. The study included 92 employees of PT. Valeo AC Indonesia as respondents. Results: Among the 92 subjects, 32.6% were found to have poor sleep quality, while 35.9% experienced primary headaches. Tension-type headaches (TTH) were identified as the most common type of primary headache. Primary headaches were predominantly reported by individuals aged <30 years, male respondents, and those who were married. Bivariate analysis revealed a significant relationship between poor sleep quality and the occurrence of primary headaches, with a p-value of 0.015, indicating statistical significance. Conclusion: This study demonstrates a significant relationship between sleep quality and the prevalence of primary headaches among employees of PT. Valeo AC Indonesia. These findings highlight the importance of improving sleep quality as a potential strategy to reduce the occurrence of primary headaches, particularly among at-risk populations.

Abstract

Tuberkulosis merupakan masalah yang serius di masyarakat. Pada tahun 2010, World Health Organization mencatat jumlah penderita tuberkulosis di Indonesia menurun ke posisi empat dengan meningkatnya keberhasilan pengobatan obat antituberkulosis (OAT). Namun, pemberian OAT jangka panjang dapat menyebabkan efek samping ototoksik berupa gangguan pendengaran dan keseimbangan. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui efek ototoksik pada penderita tuberkulosis paru dengan pemberian OAT di RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan. Penelitian ini bersifat deskriptif dengan pendekatan potong lintang. Analisis univariat dilakukan dengan tabel frekuensi distribusi sedangkan analisis bivariat dilakukan dengan menggunakan uji t dan Fisher’s exact test. Didapatkan 35 penderita tuberkulosis yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi, 22 orang dengan pengobatan tuberkulosis kategori 1 dan 13 orang tuberkulosis kategori 2. Dilakukan pemeriksaan audiometri nada murni dan tes keseimbangan. Tiga orang (33,3%) penderita tuberkulosis kategori 1 dan 6 orang (66,7%) penderita tuberkulosis kategori 2 mengalami gangguan pendengaran (p < 0,05). Hasil tes keseimbangan menunjukkan perbedaan yang signifikan yaitu 7 orang (100%) tuberkulosis kategori 2 dengan positif tes Romberg dan 11 orang (100%) tuberkulosis kategori 2 positif tes tandem Romberg. Gangguan pendengaran dan keseimbangan pada penderita tuberkulosis paru dengan OAT ditemukan lebih tinggi pada kategori 2 dibandingkan dengan kategori 1 dengan perbedaan yang signifikan.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Malaria still poses a global and national health problem, with 511,548 cases in Indonesia in 2024; a significant spike occurred in South Nias Regency, which recorded 1,267 cases and 13 deaths, where the Puskesmas Pulau Tello reported 408 cases and 5 deaths after previously reporting no cases since 2020. A preliminary survey in Sifitu Ewali Village showed that 15 out of 20 residents still associate the cause of malaria with mystical factors, reflecting a low level of knowledge and possibly contributing to the high incidence rates. X The purpose of this research is to analyze the relationship between community knowledge and actions with the incidence of malaria in the working area of the Pulau Tello Health Center, Batu Islands District, South Nias Regency. This study is an observational analytical quantitative study with a case control design conducted from April to June 2025 in the working area of the Puskesmas Pulau Tello, South Nias District. The sample consisted of 55 cases (malaria patients) and 55 controls (non-malaria sufferers), selected through simple random sampling and matched based on age and village domicile. Data were collected through a questionnaire to measure knowledge and action levels, as well as secondary data from the Puskesmas concerning malaria status. Analysis was performed bivariately using chi-square tests with a p-value 0.05 and odds ratio (OR) calculations to assess the strength of the relationship between variables. There is a significant relationship between knowledge and actions with the incidence of malaria (p-value = 0.0001 for both). Individuals with good knowledge have a much lower risk of contracting malaria (OR = 0.065; 95% CI: 0.023–0.178), while individuals with poor preventive actions have almost 6 times higher risk of contracting malaria (OR = 5.961; 95% CI: 2.614–13.590). This research shows that community knowledge and actions are significantly related to the occurrence of malaria; good knowledge can reduce the risk, while poor preventive actions significantly increase the risk of contracting malaria. Therefore, it is recommended to improve education and outreach to the community about malaria and encourage the implementation of good preventive measures, such as the use of mosquito nets, maintaining environmental cleanliness, and access to healthcare services, in order to reduce the incidence of malaria. Keywords: Malaria, Knowledge, Action, Islands.  ABSTRAK Malaria masih menjadi masalah kesehatan global dan nasional, dengan 511.548 kasus di Indonesia pada tahun 2024; lonjakan signifikan terjadi di Kabupaten Nias Selatan yang mencatat 1.267 kasus dan 13 kematian, dimana Puskesmas Pulau Tello melaporkan 408 kasus dan 5 kematian setelah sebelumnya nihil kasus sejak 2020. Survei pendahuluan di Desa Sifitu Ewali menunjukkan bahwa 15 dari 20 warga masih mengaitkan penyebab malaria dengan faktor mistik, yang mencerminkan rendahnya tingkat pengetahuan dan kemungkinan berkontribusi terhadap tingginya angka kejadian. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis hubungan pengetahuan dan tindakan masyarakat dengan kejadian malaria di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Pulau Tello, Kecamatan Pulau-Pulau Batu, Kabupaten Nias Selatan. Penelitian ini merupakan studi kuantitatif observasional analitik dengan desain case control yang dilakukan pada April hingga Juni 2025 di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Pulau Tello, Kabupaten Nias Selatan. Sampel terdiri dari 55 kasus (penderita malaria) dan 55 kontrol (tidak menderita malaria), yang dipilih secara simple random sampling dan dimatching berdasarkan usia serta domisili desa. Data dikumpulkan melalui kuesioner untuk mengukur tingkat pengetahuan dan tindakan, serta data sekunder dari Puskesmas untuk status malaria. Analisis dilakukan secara bivariat menggunakan uji chi-square dengan p-value 0,05 dan perhitungan odds ratio (OR) untuk menilai kekuatan hubungan antara variabel. Terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara pengetahuan dan tindakan dengan kejadian malaria (p-value= 0,001 untuk keduanya). Individu dengan pengetahuan yang baik memiliki risiko jauh lebih rendah terkena malaria (OR = 0,065; 95% CI: 0,023–0,178), sementara individu dengan tindakan pencegahan yang kurang baik memiliki risiko hampir 6 kali lebih tinggi terkena malaria (OR = 5,961; 95% CI: 2,614–13,590). Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pengetahuan dan tindakan masyarakat berhubungan signifikan dengan kejadian malaria; pengetahuan yang baik dapat menurunkan risiko, sedangkan tindakan pencegahan yang kurang baik meningkatkan risiko terkena malaria secara signifikan. Oleh karena itu, disarankan untuk meningkatkan edukasi dan penyuluhan kepada masyarakat tentang malaria serta mendorong penerapan tindakan pencegahan yang baik, seperti penggunaan kelambu, menjaga kebersihan lingkungan, dan akses terhadap layanan kesehatan, guna menekan angka kejadian malaria. Kata Kunci: Malaria, Pengetahuan, Tindakan, Pulau
