Abstract

In 2023 and 2024 Jember Regency had the highest maternal mortality rate (MMR) in East Java. Preeclampsia (PE), a form of hypertension during pregnancy, is the second leading cause of MMR after postpartum hemorrhage. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors and quality of antenatal care (ANC) for pregnant women with preeclampsia at the Ajung Community Health Center in Jember Regency. The study employed a retrospective cohort design. The study sample consisted of 55 pregnant women with preeclampsia from the Ajung Community Health Center between 2020 and May 2025. . A two-sample independent t-test was used to analyze differences in risk factors among women with preeclampsia statistically. An ordinal regression test determined the relationship between preeclampsia risk factors and ANC quality. The results revealed 49 cases of preeclampsia occurring at or after 34 weeks of gestation and six cases occurring before 34 weeks. A significant difference was found in maternal age as a risk factor for preeclampsia. Most of the ANC quality in the study sample was very poor (62.5%), with maternal age and mean arterial pressure (MAP) being the main influencing factors. Age-related risk factors differed among pregnant women with preeclampsia and a relationship was found between maternal age, MAP, and ANC quality.

Abstract

Toxoplasmosis is an infection caused by the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, which can be transmitted through various routes. Toxoplasmosis in pregnant women may cause abortion and fetal disabilities. Decreased body immunity due to anemia can increase the risk of toxoplasmosis during pregnancy. The purpose of this study was to identify the characteristics of pregnant women and their association with anemia, determine the prevalence of anemia and toxoplasmosis infection in pregnant women, and investigate whether anemia is a risk factor for toxoplasmosis in pregnant women. This research is an analytical, observational study using a cross-sectional laboratory examination. The sample in this study consisted of blood collected from first- and second-trimester pregnant women at the Kaliwates and Banjarsengon Public Health Centers for hemoglobin analysis and toxoplasmosis serology. Accidental sampling was conducted from July to December 2024. The research data were presented in tabular form and analyzed using the Chi-square test. This study was conducted on 65 pregnant women. The number of pregnant women with anemia was 43% and the number of pregnant women who were positive for toxoplasmosis was 66%. A significant association exists between gestational age and anemia (p-value = 0,041). Bivariate analysis between anemia and T. gondii infection showed no significant association (p-value = 0.182). This study concludes that anemia is not proven to be a risk factor for toxoplasmosis infection in pregnant women. However, the cases of anemia and toxoplasmosis were high and require specific attention.

Abstract

Cryptosporidium sp. is a gastroenteritis-causing pathogen that may increase mortality and morbidity in immunocompromised patients. Diarrhea is a common problem among acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients, with 30–60% of patients in developed countries and 90% in developing countries affected. The prevalence of cryptosporidiosis is 3–5% of the global population, with 14.42% of those affected being immunocompromised. There is currently no vaccine available to prevent cryptosporidiosis, while nitazoxanide monotherapy is ineffective in eradicating the organism in immunocompromised hosts and malnourished children. This study aimed to determine the most effective combination therapy for cryptosporidiosis in immunocompromised patients. This study used a systematic review design and implemented eligibility criteria for the literature search across PubMed, ScienceDirect, Epistemonikos, Google Scholar, Nature, Springer, and John Wiley databases. The search utilized specific keywords and Boolean operators, i.e., “Cryptosporidium,” OR “cryptosporidiosis,” AND “combination therapy,” OR “combination treatment,” AND “immunocompromised.” Two cohort studies and two case reports were selected, three of which used a nitazoxanide and azithromycin combination as the intervention, whereas only one cohort study used a nitazoxanide and fluoroquinolone combination. The studies comprised 54 samples from post-kidney transplantation patients and one sample from an acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patient. The nitazoxanide and fluoroquinolone combination showed superior outcomes than the nitazoxanide and azithromycin combination. The stool clearance was significantly lower with nitazoxanide monotherapy than the nitazoxanide and fluoroquinolone combination (OR=0.65, 95% CI=0.34–0.92, p=0.01). However, it was non-significantly lower with the nitazoxanide and azithromycin combination compared to monotherapy (OR=0.27, 95% CI=0.01–5.77, p=0.24). Nitazoxanide monotherapy exerted a significantly lower effect than the nitazoxanide and fluoroquinolone combination in stopping diarrhea symptoms (OR=0.45, 95% CI=0.21–0.81, p=0.004). In conclusion, a combination therapy using nitazoxanide and fluoroquinolone for cryptosporidiosis in immunocompromised patients offers more favorable outcomes compared to monotherapy, particularly in stopping diarrhea and enhancing stool clearance.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is a developmental disorder caused by chronic inadequate nutritional intake in toddlers, leading to deficiencies in various nutrients, including iron and zinc. This can weaken toddlers' immunity, making them more vulnerable to infectious diseases, such as intestinal protozoa. An infected digestive tract can interfere with absorbing nutrients and reduce appetite, causing the infection to persist and become chronic. Chronic infection triggers the formation of pro-inflammatory cytokines that affect bone growth, hindering growth and causing stunting.Objectives: This study confidently investigates the correlation between iron and zinc micronutrient intake and intestinal protozoan infection in stunting toddlers in Jember District.Methods: The research is observational and cross-sectional, with 568 stunting toddlers aged 0-59 months in Jember District, East Java as study subjects. Iron and zinc intake were collected through 2x24-hour food-recall questionnaire interview and processed using the Nutrisurvey software. Protozoan infection status in toddler feces samples was identified using direct smear and modified Ziehl-Neelsen methods. The data analysis method chosen was the Spearman correlation test.Results: The study found that stunted toddlers in Jember District had mostly deficient micronutrient intake. The average iron intake is 2.56±3.06 mg and the average zinc intake is 1.8±1.47 mg. Protozoan infection was found in this study has a prevalence of 15.7%, with identified species including Entamoeba histolytica (3.3%), Giardia lamblia (2.6%), Cryptosporidium parvum (3.2%), Blastocystis hominis (5.3%), and mixed infections (1.2%). The statistical analysis confirms that there is no significant correlation between the intake of micronutrients iron (p=0.91;r=0.005) and zinc (p=0.76;r=0.013) and intestinal protozoan infection in stunting toddlers in Jember District.Conclusions: Based on the data, protozoan infection may be caused by multiple factors, such as parenting practices and family socioeconomics. However, improving nutrition by education and giving additional supplementation are crucial to reduce the prevalence of malnutrition in toddlers.
