Abstract

Preventing malaria in pregnant women is crucial, especially for the safety of both the mother and the baby, particularly in malaria-endemic areas. Dihydroartemisinin-Piperaquine (DHP) is one of the options for Intermittent Preventive Treatment in pregnancy (IPTp). Although several previous studies have assessed DHP as a preventive antimalarial in pregnancy, this study systematically consolidates the most recent Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs), reflecting new evidence and resistance trends to Sulfadoxine-Pyrimethamine (SP) across malaria-endemic regions. This study aims to review the safety and efficacy of DHP use during pregnancy. The methodology involved a comprehensive literature search from the databases PubMed, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and Cochrane, published in English from 2020 to 2024. Inclusion criteria encompassed double-blind RCT evaluating the use of DHP during pregnancy. Exclusion criteria included studies that did not involve pregnant women, did not use DHP, and study designs other than double-blind RCT. The initial search yielded 255 articles. After screening for duplicates, a total of 50 duplicates were removed. Ultimately, 5 articles were identified after screening titles, abstracts, and full texts. The analysis results indicate that IPTp DHP is more effective in reducing the incidence of malaria compared to IPTp SP. However, IPTp SP is safer to use than IPTp DHP due to fewer adverse effects. The use of DHP may be considered for IPTp in cases of SP resistance. This review provides an updated synthesis of recent RCTs focusing on the comparative safety and efficacy of DHP versus SP in IPTp of malaria in pregnancy, highlighting recent evidence in the context of emerging SP resistance.

Abstract

The incidence of cancer in the elderly population is increasing as life expectancy rises. In addition, the number of elderly patients with cancer has increased and is expected to continue to grow with advances in cancer treatment. Cancer commonly develops in elderly people aged ≥55 years. This study aimed to improve the elderly’s knowledge of cancer prevention. This observational, cross-sectional study was conducted in RW 23, Brontokusuman Village, Yogyakarta, and targeted the elderly who were members of the Pemberdayaan Kesejahteraan Keluarga/PKK (Family Welfare Empowerment). This activity included a pretest, followed by education delivered through direct presentations, and a posttest to evaluate outcomes after the educational intervention. A sample of 34 participants was recruited using accidental sampling. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis as well as descriptive statistics through mean, median, mode, and percentage. The results showed that the most common age group was 51–60 years (44.12%). The mean knowledge score increased from 76.47 to 91.47, with a p value of 0.000, indicating a significant improvement in knowledge before and after cancer prevention education. The greatest increases in understanding were observed for questions 10, 8, 2, and 6, respectively. Several topics demonstrated a substantial improvement, particularly those that were previously poorly understood. Community-based education may be an effective strategy for cancer prevention, particularly for the elderly population.
