Abstract

Helminthiasis is a disease caused by parasites in the form of worms, one of which is the type of soil-transmitted helminth (STH),  A. lumbricoides, T. trichiura, N. americanus, and A. duodenale which infect humans through soil transmission. Enterobius vermicularis is the most common intestinal parasite in the whole world. Worms that live in the human intestine can cause malnutrition and anemic. This study aims to determine the relationship STH and Enterobius vermicularis infection with anemic of students in several elementary schools in Aceh Besar regency, Aceh province. This study was an analytical study using a cross-sectional study design conducted from May to November 2015. The sample consisted of the total sampling of 736 elementary school students, as well as using the inquiry method of Kato with stool specimens, cellophane tape anal swab, and hemoglobin. The correspondents who suffered from anemia and STH type helminthiasis, namely ancylostomiasis 7/7 students (100%, p=0.000); trichuriasis 30/58 students (51.7%, p=0.000) and 28 students not anemic (48.3%); and ascariasis 13/22 students (59.9%, p=0.002) and 9 students not anemic (41.1%). In enterobiasis infection, anemic students were 46/146 students (31.5%) and nonanemic students were 100 students (68.5%, p=0.634). In conclusion, all STH types related to the anemic status of the correspondent, and no correlation between anemic and infection of enterobiasis. HUBUNGAN INFEKSI SOIL-TRANSMITTED HELMINTH DAN ENTEROBIUS VERMICULARIS DENGAN ANEMIA PADA SISWA DI KABUPATEN ACEH BESAR PROVINSI ACEHKecacingan adalah penyakit yang disebabkan oleh parasit berupa cacing, salah satunya jenis soil-transmitted helminth (STH), yaitu A. lumbricoides, T. trichiura, N. americanus, dan A. duodenale yang menginfeksi manusia melalui transmisi tanah.

Abstract

Soil-Transmitted Helminth (STH) has infected more than one billion people worldwide. Waste collectors are at risk for STH infection because their work mostly in contact with soil and waste. Eosinophilia is a sign of human immune response to STH infection in addition to increased IgE and cytokine production. This cross sectional study aims to examine the association between STH infection and eosinophil levels among waste collectors in Banda Aceh. The study sample were 60 waste collectors working for the Sanitation department of Banda Aceh. Examination of stool samples using Kato-Katz technique revealed the prevalence of STH infection among waste collectors was 23.3% (14/60), consisting of T.trichiura infection (21.7%) and mixed infection (1.6%). There were no single infections of A. lumbricoides nor the hookworm infection was found. Blood tests to count eosinophil showed the prevalence of eosinophilia at 21.7%. There was no significant correlation between the intensity of STH infection and eosinophil levels (p value = 1.00). This study does not recommend the use of eosinophilia to indicate STH infection.

Abstract

A group of helminthic and intestinal protozoa causes intestinal parasitic infections (IPIs), affecting more than 2.5 billion people worldwide. IPIs are diseases closely associated with poor hygiene and sanitation, concentrated in underdeveloped regions and among populations with low socioeconomic status. Consequently, most prevalence is in Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia, with local habits or risk factors that could affect its prevalence. The aim of this study was to determine how hygienic practices, sanitation, and local behavior of eating raw meat (hinasumba) contributed to the prevalence of IPI. A cross-sectional study was conducted in the Simalungun District of North Sumatera Province, involving 428 people of Batak Simalungun. There were 15 villages randomly selected across the district based on the local registry, which consequently, non-purposive sampling was conducted. Face-to-face interviews assessed various risk factors, such as demographic characteristics, water source, traditional raw meat consumption, or hinasumba as local risk factors, hygienic practices, and sanitation. The findings indicated that an overall prevalence rate of IPI was 42.9%, consisting of 87.5% with helminthic infection and 12.5% with protozoal infection. More than half of IPI cases were associated with Taenia sp. infections (21.8%), followed by hookworms’ infections with a 6.1% positivity rate. Based on multivariate analysis, farming and consuming traditional delicacies, namely hinasumba, increased the likelihood of IPI occurrence among the population by 1.7 and 3 times, respectively. It can be concluded that the high prevalence of taeniasis in the study area was associated with local behavior and hinasumba consumption, which may contribute to determining the dominance of specific IPI species.

Abstract

As part of the World Health Organization’s One Health Initiative, vector-borne disease control requires multidisciplinary and community involvement. This review examined community-based mosquito control intervention methods, their efficacy, and limitations. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline, data were extracted from four medical databases: PubMed, Clinical Key, ProQuest, and ScienceDirect, covering the period from 2014 to 2023. The search used the keywords "community intervention," "vector control," and "mosquito." Filters were applied for full text, primary sources, scholarly journals, and publications within the last ten years (2014–2023). Studies without community intervention components were excluded. The initial search retrieved 1,035 articles, and 32 full-text articles were selected and assessed for eligibility, with 15 papers included in the final analysis. The included studies focused on arbovirus or malaria vectors and used randomized controlled trials (RCTs), pre- and post-intervention surveys, community-based implementation surveys, or qualitative research designs. Commonly applied interventions included community-driven vector population control and community education. Overall, the studies reported improvements in outcome measures such as entomological indices, community knowledge and practices, costs, and disease incidence or prevalence. However, some studies reported challenges with community perception and acceptance. In conclusion, this review consistently demonstrated a positive impact of community interventions on managing mosquito control.

Abstract

Mosquitoes are the primary vectors for disease transmission in tropical regions such as Indonesia, which has high humidity levels that support their reproduction. Household environmental conditions play a crucial role in determining the presence and density of mosquito larvae as disease vectors. The Medan Denai subdistrict is a densely populated area experiencing an increase in Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) cases. This study analyzes the relationship between household environmental conditions and mosquito larvae density. A survey was conducted on 300 homes divided into three groups. Environmental condition data were collected through direct observation, while the presence of larvae was analyzed using the House Index (HI), Container Index (CI), and Breteau Index (BI) to calculate the Density Figure (DF). Results showed that 24% of homes tested positive for larvae, primarily in dispenser containers. A total of 61% of homes had unclean environmental conditions. The highest DF of 5.3 was found in the 1–100 home group, which falls under the high-risk category for disease transmission. Chi-Square analysis revealed a significant association between environmental conditions and larval density (p = 0.045). These findings underscore the importance of improving environmental conditions as a strategy for mosquito vector control.

Abstract

Background: More than one and a half million of whole world population are infected by Soil Transmitted Helminths. The most common types of Soil Transmitted Helminths found in human are Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura and Hookworm (Necator americanus and Ancylostoma duodenale). Soil Transmitted Helminths infections are usually found on individuals with poor hygiene, low socioeconomic status, and high risk occupations, such as sheep farmer. Sheep farming in Indonesia is generally a small-scale farm with modest technology. Livestock herding on the pasture may cause the livestock to consume Soil Transmitted Helminths-contaminated grass. Soil is the medium for the maturing of Soil Transmitted Helminths fertilized egg into infective form. Modest handling aspect and poor sanitation allow Soil Transmitted Helminths to be found in farm soil. Objective: To identify Soil Transmitted Helminths in the soil of a sheep farm in Manggis Village, Serbajadi District, Serdang Bedagai Regency. Methods: This observational descriptive study was conducted with cross-sectional approach. 100 of soil samples were collected per 8 square meters through quota sampling from a sheep farm in Manggis Village, Serbajadi District, Serdang Bedagai Regency. The data was collected by carrying out flotation technique in laboratory.. Results: Soil Transmitted Helminths eggs were discovered in 17 (17%) out of 100 samples, Hookworm eggs in 14 samples (14%), and Ascaris lumbricoides eggs in 5 (5%) samples. Conclusion: There are Soil Transmitted Helminths in soil of the sheep farm in in Manggis Village, Serbajadi District, Serdang Bedagai Regency.
