Abstract

Malnutrition is a condition where nutritional intake is insufficient to meet metabolic needs, with nutritional status based on body weight index for age (BB/U<-3SD). Malnutrition has a negative impact on physical and mental growth, reduces body resistance, intelligence and even causes disability and increases morbidity and mortality. This study used a case-control research design with a ratio of 1:1. The sample used was 50 selected by simple random sampling consisting of 25 cases and 25 controls. Analysis of the data used is a simple logistic regression analysis using statistical tests with a significance level of = 0.05. Mother's education showed a value (p = 0.002 OR value 0.107), mother's knowledge (p = 0.001 OR value 0.091) toddler eating habits consisted of main meals (p = 0.025 OR 0.259), breakfast (p = 0.045 OR 0.219), snacks (p=0.013, OR 0.291), family food availability (p=0.002, OR 576.000), and a history of infectious diseases (p=0.005, OR 22.154). From the results of the research, some respondents showed that there was a significant relationship between poor nutrition and maternal education, knowledge of maternal health nutrition, eating habits of children under five, availability of family food and infectious diseases. This is indicated by the results of a simple logistic regression analysis. Mothers must also take advantage of existing health services and pay attention to the nutritional intake of toddlers to prevent malnutrition.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension in adolescents is becoming an increasingly important health issue because it can continue into adulthood and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease later in life. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of hypertension and pre-hypertension and to analyze the related factors in adolescents in peri-urban areas. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design conducted in October 2023 on 40 Christian Junior High School 4 Mebung students in Alor Regency. The sample selection was purposive, with inclusion criteria of 13–16 years old. Data were collected using structured questionnaires, interviews, and blood pressure measurements. Blood pressure was measured three times to ensure the accuracy of the measurement results. Data analysis included univariate analysis to describe the characteristics of the respondents and chi-square test to assess the relationship between independent variables (sodium intake, physical activity, parental history of hypertension, sleep duration, sleep quality, and stress) with hypertension status. Results: Pre-hypertension prevalence was 30%, and hypertension was 20%. Three factors showed a significant relationship with hypertension: a history of hypertension in the father (p-value = 0.038), high sodium intake (p-value = 0.002), and sleep duration of less than 8 hours (p-value = 0.001). Other factors, such as a history of hypertension in the mother, physical activity, sleep disorders, and stress, did not show a significant relationship. Conclusion: Hypertension in adolescents in peri-urban areas is related to genetic factors and lifestyle behavior. Prevention efforts need to be focused on low-sodium nutritional education, adequate sleep management, and routine blood pressure screening in schools.

Abstract

Laju pertumbuhan penduduk yang terus meningkat menjadi tantangan serius dalam pembangunan berkelanjutan, khususnya di Indonesia yang merupakan negara dengan jumlah penduduk terbesar keempat di dunia. Program Keluarga Berencana (KB), khususnya penggunaan metode kontrasepsi jangka panjang (MKJP) seperti Alat Kontrasepsi Dalam Rahim (AKDR), menjadi strategi penting dalam pengendalian populasi dan peningkatan kualitas kesehatan ibu dan keluarga. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara determinan sosial budaya dengan penggunaan AKDR oleh ibu di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Oepoi, Kota Kupang tahun 2024. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan desain cross sectional. Populasi dalam penelitian adalah seluruh ibu akseptor KB baru sebanyak 550 orang, dan sampel diambil menggunakan rumus Lemeshow. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara variabel umur dan pendidikan ibu dengan penggunaan AKDR. Namun, tidak ditemukan hubungan signifikan antara pekerjaan, penghasilan keluarga, maupun kepercayaan terhadap mitos dengan penggunaan AKDR. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan perlunya pendekatan berbasis pendidikan dan usia dalam promosi penggunaan AKDR, dengan tetap mempertimbangkan aspek budaya lokal dalam perencanaan program KB. Saran diperlukan edukasi yang lebih intensif mengenai manfaat dan keamanan AKDR perlu ditingkatkan, program KB disesuaikan dengan kelompok usia ibu, serta strategi komunikasi yang digunakan hendaknya melibatkan nilai budaya lokal. Selain itu, tenaga kesehatan perlu dilatih untuk menangani mitos secara bijak, dan keterlibatan tokoh masyarakat menjadi penting dalam memperluas jangkauan program.
