Abstract

Community empowerment programs to tackle pulmonary TB have never been implemented in South Tapanuli Regency, North Sumatra Province, Indonesia. Difficulties in designing interventions related to the socio-cultural community are one of the reasons. This study aims to understand people's perceptions of pulmonary TB health and disease and understand how the community prevents pulmonary TB. Qualitative research was carried out through focus group discussions and in-depth interviews. Participants were chosen purposively based on socioeconomic status, community / religious / adat leaders, and community health center officials, and government health officials. Data were analyzed using content analysis. The results of the analysis summarize the eight categories of statements that most often appear, namely: (1) Pulmonary TB is a dangerous disease; (2) the causes of pulmonary TB disease; (3) stigma related to pulmonary TB; (4) pulmonary TB treatment; (5) prevention of pulmonary TB; (6) information sources; (7) the role of community / religious / adat leaders; and (8) community action patterns. These eight categories are grouped into three domain structures, namely: (1) people's perception of pulmonary TB disease; (2) how to prevent pulmonary TB; and (3) health promotion strategies. The theme of deliberation, consensus, cooperation, and harmony that is identical to Dalihan Na Tolu's philosophy emerged as the perception of the people of South Tapanuli towards pulmonary TB disease.

Abstract

Introduction: The impact of the pandemic on adolescents' lives showed that 55.1% stress and 40% anxiety due to online learning along with an increase in teenage pregnancy. Aims: To determine the predictive index of risk variables for teen pregnancy throughout the COVID-19 pandemic's online learning period. Methods: This type of research is analytic observational utilizing a case-control design. Using simple random sampling, the case sample was 40 pregnant adolescents and 80 non-pregnant controls for the Indonesian Regency of Ngawi from July 2021 until January 2022. Once each variable was significant, multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed (p < 0.05) as predictors of teenage pregnancy. Results: The findings revealed that the variables as indicators of the risk of teenage pregnancy were courtship behavior, access to reproductive health media, and parenting. The predictive index of teen pregnancy risk factors was (-7.248 + 3.833 x low risk dating + 7.726 x severe risk dating + 2.773 x access 1 media + 2.773 x access 2/more media + 3.871 x authoritarian and permissive parenting). The high probability of teenage pregnancy with an opportunity value above 0.5 is in adolescents with dating behavior or parenting patterns that show the highest risk, namely high-risk dating behavior or adolescents with authoritarian and permissive parenting patterns. Conclusion: It is hoped that this index can be considered and used as a measuring tool in assisting in reproductive health programs, in screening adolescents so that it can be known early on that adolescents have an increased risk of pregnancy.

Abstract

Introduction: Quality of life (QoL) is a multidomain concept that assesses a person through health status, functional status, and symptoms. The patient's QoL is greatly reduced due to the course of disease, severity of symptoms, and side effects of chemotherapy treatment. This study aimed to assess the QoL in advanced lung cancer patients using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-C30 (EORTC QLQ-C30). Methods: This descriptive and observational study was conducted at the Pulmonary Polyclinic, Prof. Dr. Chairuddin Panusunan Lubis Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU) Hospital from February to July 2024, with a cross-sectional design using patient medical records and EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire. The EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire was analyzed with a score formula and categorized as good, moderate, and bad. The sample was 100 lung cancer patients using a purposive sampling technique according to the criteria. Results: The results showed that almost all QoL was in the moderate category (80%). The general health status was mostly in the moderate category (61.66%), the functional status was mostly in the good category (75.35%), and the symptoms were in the moderate category (35.65%). In the functional scale, the role domain had the lowest mean, 69.99 ± 29.43. In the symptoms scale, the pain domain had the highest mean, 52.66 ± 29.43. Conclusion: The overall QoL of lung cancer patients was in the moderate category, lower than the healthy population. It needs to be improved, especially in the role domain, by providing supportive-expressive group therapy.

Abstract

Cancer is the most common chronic disease worldwide, with cervical cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and skin cancer being the most prevalent. Breast cancer ranks second globally after lung cancer. Patients diagnosed with breast cancer undergo changes in their physical, sexual, social, and daily life activities, affecting their overall life quality. One crucial factor that can enhance the life quality for patients is the support from their families, which is a pivotal determinant for individual well-being. To determine the differences in the life quality among breast cancer patients with high and low family support and to analyze the correlation between family support and the breast cancer patients life quality. This study employed a quantitative analytic survey with a cross-sectional design. The research was conducted at Haji Adam Malik Central General Hospital from August to October 2023. The study population included all stage I and II breast cancer patients, totaling 205 outpatient individuals from March to April 2022, with a sample size of 66. Simple random sampling was utilized for participant selection. Data collection involved questionnaire interviews. Data analysis comprised two steps: first, univariate analysis using descriptive and frequency statistics, and second, bivariate analysis using Pearson's test and independent t-test with a significance level of 95% (p-value ≤ 0.05). Statistical results indicated a significant difference in the life quality between breast cancer patients with high and low family support (p=0.037). It was concluded that there is a significantive correlation between family support and the breast cancer patients life quality (p=0.001; r=-0.644). Family support is crucial for patients facing chronic diseases such as breast cancer. It is recommended that families strive to enhance their support to ensure patients' comfort during treatment and therapy programs, ultimately improving the breast cancer patients life quality.  Keyword: Breast Cancer, Family, Life Quality

Abstract

Hypertension in pregnancy is one of the leading causes of maternal mortality, with a global prevalence of 5–10% (Khedagi & Bello, 2021). This study aims to analyze the effect of reproductive status—maternal age, gravidity, and parity—on the incidence of hypertension in pregnancy at Prof. Dr. Chairuddin P. Lubis Educational Hospital, Medan. A case-control design was employed with 96 respondents, consisting of 48 cases and 48 controls. Bivariate analysis revealed that pregnant women aged ≥35 years have a 2.839-fold higher risk of developing hypertension compared to those aged <35 years (OR=2.839; 95% CI: 1.123–7.177; p=0.027). First pregnancy (primigravida) increases the risk by 2.742 times compared to multigravida (OR=2.742; 95% CI: 1.047–7.178; p=0.040), while nulliparous women have a 2.714-fold higher risk compared to those who have given birth (OR=2.714; 95% CI: 1.101–6.693; p=0.030). Multivariate analysis identified maternal age ≥35 years and nulliparity as the most significant predictors (p=0.005). These findings align with studies by Wiranto & Putriningtyas (2021), Hinkosa et al. (2020), and Luo et al. (2020), which confirmed that advanced maternal age and nulliparity increase the risk of pregnancy complications. The novelty of this research lies in integrating all three reproductive status factors as simultaneous predictors of hypertension risk, providing a new perspective compared to previous studies focused on single variables. Based on these findings, early detection and targeted health education for high-risk mothers are strongly recommended.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to determine the factors related to the incidence of HIV and AIDS among people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) at the HKBP (Huria Kristen Batak Protestan) AIDS Ministry in 2019–2021, as the only institution established to provide assistance and empowerment to PLWHA in the Toba Regency. Methods: This research employs an analytical, quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 172 respondents aged 15 to 64 years who were selected as participants. The study's results were derived from data collected through interviews that utilized questionnaires, which were then analyzed using both univariate and bivariate analysis, including a chi-square statistical test. Results: The results showed that the proportion of HIV incidence was 79.7% and AIDS incidence was 20.3%. The results of bivariate analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between the variable history of infectious diseases (p < 0.001) and the incidence of HIV and AIDS. There was no significant relationship between the variables gender (p = 0.462), education level (p = 0.859), occupation (p = 0.462), mode of transmission (p=0.254), and knowledge (p = 0.225) with the incidence of HIV and AIDS in the HKBP AIDS Ministry in 2019-2021. Conclusion: People who have a history of infectious diseases are at the highest risk of contracting HIV in the AIDS Ministry. Patients are expected to consume antiretroviral therapy routinely and pay more attention to handling and management of infectious diseases when having sexual intercourse.
