Abstract

Bottled Drinking Water (AMDK) is a widely consumed drinking water source because it is practical and considered hygienic. However, various studies have shown that bottled water can be contaminated with microplastics, which can affect human health and the environment. This study aims to determine the abundance and characteristics of microplastics in local brands of bottled drinking water (AMDK) circulating in the Faculty of Public Health, Muslim University of Indonesia (FKM UMI), Makassar City. This study is an observational, descriptive study. A sample examination was conducted through laboratory analysis to identify the presence, number, shape, color, and size of microplastics in local-brand bottled water samples. The results showed that all bottled water samples examined contained microplastic particles with an average abundance of 0.028 particles/mL. The highest abundance was observed in bottled water sample 4, with 9 particles (0.038 particles/mL), while the lowest was observed in bottled water sample 2, with 4 particles (0.018 particles/mL). All identified microplastics were in fiber form. The most dominant microplastic colors were blue and black, while a small portion was transparent. The microplastics found ranged in size from 0.087 mm to 1.212 mm, with the majority measuring less than 1 mm. This study concluded that all local brand bottled water samples examined were contaminated with microplastics, with the dominant characteristics being blue and black fibers and measuring less than 1 mm. These findings highlight the need to monitor bottled water quality and further research the potential impacts of microplastics on public health.

Abstract

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem caused by a long-term lack of nutritional intake, resulting in impaired growth in children. The prevalence of stunting in South Sulawesi Province was 151,398 children suffering from stunting or growth failure in 2021. The most fundamental problem in integrated health service posts (Posyandu) is the low level of knowledge of cadres, both academically and technically. Therefore, to provide optimal services, adjustments to the knowledge and skills of Posyandu cadres are necessary. This study aims to determine the effect of health promotion through video media on the knowledge and attitudes of cadres in the Barombong Community Health Center (Puskesmas) work area regarding the prevention of stunting. This type of research is quantitative. The design used in this study is quasi-experimental. The study population was 65 people. The sample in this study was 65 respondents. The instrument used was a questionnaire. The results of the study obtained a p-value of 0.000 <0.05, which means there is an influence of health promotion through video media on the knowledge of cadres in preventing stunting at the Barombong Health Center, a p-value of 0.000 <0.05, which means there is an influence of health promotion through video media on the attitudes of cadres in preventing stunting in the Barombong Health Center work area. This study concludes that the variables of knowledge and attitude influence health promotion through video media in the Barombong Health Center Work Area.

Abstract

The trend of unhealthy food consumption, such as fast food, raises important concerns regarding changing eating habits. The prevalence of fast food consumption among students may present various health risks. This study seeks to explore the factors influencing fast food consumption patterns among students at the Faculty of Public Health, Universitas Muslim Indonesia, in 2025. Utilizing a quantitative research methodology with a cross-sectional study approach, the study involved a sample of 253 participants drawn from a total population of 692, with an accidental sampling technique employed for participant selection. Data was gathered through a questionnaire, and analysis was conducted using the Chi-Square test. The statistical analysis yielded significant findings: a relationship between knowledge (p = 0.000) and ease of access (p = 0.001) with fast food consumption patterns. In contrast, no significant relationship was identified between parental income and fast food consumption (p = 0.396). In light of these findings, it may be beneficial for the faculty to consider implementing periodic educational campaigns to enhance students' awareness of healthy eating practices. Engaging students through popular media platforms such as Instagram and TikTok could be an effective strategy to promote healthier eating habits.

Abstract

Maternal knowledge of nutrition and complementary feeding practices plays an essential role in supporting appropriate infant feeding. However, many mothers still lack adequate understanding of recommended complementary feeding (MP-ASI), which may affect infant development, particularly gross and fine motor skills that develop rapidly during the first year of life. This study aimed to examine the relationship between maternal knowledge and complementary feeding practices with infant motor development among infants aged 6–12 months in the working area of the Puskesmas Kassi-Kassi. This study employed a quantitative cross-sectional design. A total of 134 mothers with infants aged 6–12 months were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using a maternal knowledge questionnaire on MP-ASI, a complementary feeding practices questionnaire, and the Developmental Pre-Screening Questionnaire (KPSP) to assess gross and fine motor development. The results showed no significant association between maternal knowledge and infant motor development, both fine and gross motor skills (p = 1.000). Similarly, complementary feeding practices were not significantly associated with fine motor development (p = 0.479) or gross motor development (p = 0.671). In conclusion, maternal knowledge and complementary feeding practices were not identified as determining factors for motor development in this study. These findings suggest that infant motor development may be more strongly influenced by other factors, such as stimulation, caregiving environment, and overall child health. Therefore, health education programs should emphasize not only nutritional knowledge but also parental engagement and stimulation strategies to support optimal motor development.
