Abstract

Soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infection remains a public health concern in rural tropical settings, where limited sanitation and high environmental exposure elevate risk. In Mataredi Village, most residents are subsistence farmers with constrained access to improved sanitation. Objective to estimate the prevalence of STH infection and assess its association with household latrine ownership in Mataredi Village, Katikutana District, Central Sumba. Methods: An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted in June–July 2024. A total of 144 residents aged >5 years who met inclusion criteria were enrolled using consecutive sampling. Fresh stool samples were examined by direct smear with 2% Lugol’s iodine. The association between latrine ownership (yes/no) and STH infection status (positive/negative) was evaluated using the Chi-square test; results are presented as p-value and odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI). Overall prevalence of STH infection was 19.4% (28/144). The species profile was dominated by Trichuris trichiura, with both single and mixed infections detected. Based on the Chi-square test, there was no statistically significant association between latrine ownership and STH infection (p = 0.943; OR 0.88; 95% CI 0.38–2.06). A mass deworming campaign conducted in May 2024 may have reduced detectable worm burden and attenuated observed associations.  The prevalence of STH infection in Mataredi Village was 19.4%, with Trichuris trichiura predominance. No significant association was found between household latrine ownership and infection status.

Abstract

The Waist-to-Height Ratio (WHtR) is one of the measurement tools used to determine central obesity, which is a risk factor for hypertension. However, WHtR has not yet been used in Indonesia as a tool to assess health status. The aim to analyze the correlation between WHtR and the incidence of hypertension at Oesapa Health Center in Kupang City, NTT. The method a cross-sectional study with purposive sampling. The study was conducted on 69 respondents, measuring waist circumference, height, and blood pressure using a measuring tape, microtoise, and digital sphygmomanometer. Data were analyzed using Spearman’s Rho correlation test. Among the respondents, 17.4% (12/69) had a normal WHtR, 47.8% (33/69) had an increased central adiposity WHtR, and 34.8% (24/69) had a high central adiposity WHtR. Additionally, 14.5% (10/69) had normal blood pressure, 26.1% (18/69) were in the prehypertension category, and 59.4% (41/69) had hypertension. The Spearman’s rho test showed a p-value of 0.007 (p<0.05). The Waist-to-Height Ratio (WHtR) is positively correlated with the incidence of hypertension at the Oesapa Health Center in Kupang City.

Abstract

Occupational depression is a global issue impacting productivity, yet attention to administrative staff in higher education remains limited. A preliminary survey at Nusa Cendana University indicated that 28% of administrative staff exhibited symptoms of depression. This study aimed to analyze the determinants of such depression by examining psychological well-being, work-life balance, and work environment. Using a qualitative design, data were collected through in-depth interviews with six administrative staff members identified with depression and analyzed using Reflexive Thematic Analysis. Results identified three key themes: personal life interference with work because of family dysfunction, workplace ambivalence as a stressor, emotional escape, and manifestations of psychological collapse. It is concluded that depression among administrative staff represents a complex interaction between personal life issues and institutional pressures. These findings highlight the urgency of interventions through the development and implementation of policies that support mental health.

Abstract

Stroke non hemoragik merupakan gangguan neurologis akibat sumbatan aliran darah otak yang sering menimbulkan hemiparesis sebagai gejala sisa. Kondisi kelemahan satu sisi tubuh ini tidak hanya berdampak pada fungsi fisik, tetapi juga berkontribusi terhadap gangguan psikologis seperti depresi. Perbedaan hasil penelitian sebelumnya mengenai kecenderungan depresi berdasarkan letak hemiparesis mendorong dilakukannya penelitian ini. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis hubungan letak hemiparesis dengan derajat depresi pada penderita stroke non hemoragik di RSUD Prof. Dr. W. Z. Johannes Kupang. Penelitian menggunakan desain analitik observasional dengan pendekatan cross sectional terhadap 46 responden yang dipilih secara consecutive sampling. Derajat depresi diukur menggunakan kuesioner Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS), kemudian dianalisis secara univariat dan bivariat menggunakan uji Koefisien Kontingensi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan mayoritas responden mengalami depresi derajat sedang (37%). Analisis bivariat menunjukkan terdapat hubungan signifikan antara letak hemiparesis dengan derajat depresi (p=0,009; p<0,05). Disimpulkan bahwa letak hemiparesis berhubungan secara bermakna dengan tingkat keparahan depresi pada pasien stroke non hemoragik, sehingga diperlukan perhatian multidisiplin dalam penanganan aspek fisik dan psikologis pasien.

Abstract

Insufficient physical activity is a major risk factor for obesity, which is a global health problem, including in Indonesia. Community health center employees as health workers have a high risk of becoming obese due to a sedentary lifestyle. This study aims to explore the relationship between physical activity and body mass index (BMI) in UPTD employees of La'o Community Health Center, Wali Village, Langke Rembong District. This research uses design cross-sectional with a sample of 54 health center employees selected randomly purposive sampling. Physical activity data was collected using a questionnaire-based questionnaire Metabolic Equivalent of Task (METs), while BMI is calculated from measurements of weight and height. Data analysis was carried out using the Fisher’s Exact test. Respondents with active physical activity mostly had a normal Body Mass Index (BMI), while respondents with inactive physical activity were more likely to have an abnormal BMI. Overall, 63% of respondents had a normal BMI and 37% had an abnormal BMI, with the proportion of active and inactive respondents each being 50%. The findings from the analysis conducted with Fisher's Exact Test indicated a notable connection between exercise and Body Mass Index, with a p-value of less than 0.001. A clear link exists between exercise and BMI among employees at community health centers. Boosting physical activity can serve as a crucial approach to avoid obesity in healthcare workers.
