Abstract

Noise is a serious problem because it can have an impact on health, one of which is high blood pressure (hypertension). Noise can come from inside or outside the house. One source of noise from outside the house is traffic. Noise comes from the sound produced by motorized vehicles, especially from the engine, exhaust, and the interaction between the wheels and the road. This research aims to determine and analyze the relationship between noise intensity and blood pressure in the community around Bangkal Village. This research is observational analytic, using a cross-sectional design. Observations were made on 68 people, consisting of 40 people for the cluster on the side of the road and 28 people for the cluster 32 m from the road. Data were analyzed using the gamma correlation test. A sound level meter was used to collect noise data, a blood pressure meter was used to collect blood pressure data, and a questionnaire was used to collect respondent characteristics. The research results show that noise ranges between 46.6 dBA – 72.3 dBA. Twelve people (40%) suffered from high blood pressure, and 28 people (60%) had normal blood pressure. There is no significant relationship between noise intensity and blood pressure. This information is helpful for future researchers conducting further research by considering other variables or carrying out noise measurements in the house (indoors).

Abstract

This review aims to explore the impact of chemical contaminants other than nitrates, including nitrites, lead, mercury, and arsenic, on the risk of blue baby syndrome or methemoglobinemia in infants, as well as to identify the synergistic effects of multi-contaminant exposure. A literature search was performed on prominent scientific databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, for articles published between 2010 and 2024. The review method involved selecting and assessing study quality using the JBI Critical Appraisal Tools. Extracted data included the chemical parameters studied, study design, sample size, and main outcomes. Meta-analysis was performed using a random-effects model to calculate odds ratios (OR) and relative risks (RR), as well as to evaluate heterogeneity between studies. From the 35 studies analyzed, the meta-analysis revealed that exposure to nitrites, lead, mercury, and arsenic significantly increased the risk of methemoglobinemia in infants. The results showed an OR of 4.8 (95% CI: 3.2-6.7) for nitrites, 3.5 (RR) (95% CI: 2.4-5.0) for lead, 2.9 (95% CI: 2.1-4.3) for mercury, and 3.9 (95% CI: 2.5-6.1) for arsenic. Furthermore, the combination of multi-contaminant exposure resulted in an OR of 6.5 (95% CI: 4.1-8.7) and demonstrated significant heterogeneity. This study highlights that chemical contaminants other than nitrates, including nitrites, lead, mercury, and arsenic, make a significant contribution to the increased risk of blue baby syndrome. The importance of comprehensive drinking water quality management and strict regulations on contaminant exposure is strongly emphasized.

Abstract

Air pollution is a global environmental problem that has the potential to have a negative impact on children's cognitive development. Scientific evidence suggests that exposure to air pollution, both during the prenatal and postnatal periods, is associated with neurodevelopmental disorders. This systematic literature review aims to synthesize scientific evidence on the influence of air pollution exposure on children's cognitive development, highlighting the prenatal period and school age. Literature searches were conducted through various scientific databases with keywords related to air pollution and children's cognitive development. The studies included in this review are longitudinal and cross-sectional studies published in the last ten years. The results of the review showed that exposure to air pollution, both during pregnancy and childhood, could negatively impact IQ, working memory, attention, and other neurological development. Some studies had also explored the socioeconomic and environmental factors that contribute to children's vulnerability to the harmful effects of air pollution. These studies emphasize the need for interventing to reduce pollution exposure and improve children's health. This evidence confirms the importance of mitigation efforts to reduce exposure to air pollution in pregnant women and children to support optimal cognitive development. More research is needed to understand the biological mechanisms as well as their long-term impacts.

Abstract

Melayu Tengah Village is one of the villages located in East Martapura District, Banjar Regency, South Kalimantan Province. With strategic village potential, it has a connecting bridge with East Martapura District and other villages, the existence of Pukaha craftsmen, and community support for health. However, health problems still occur frequently, such as diarrhea and stunting. Banjar Regent H. Saidi Mansyur said that based on the results of the 2021 Indonesian toddler nutrition case study, the prevalence of stunting in Banjar Regency was 40.2%. (Banjar Regency Public Info, (20 May 2022). Even though the threshold set by the World Health Organization or WHO for stunting cases is only around 20 percent. Moreover, prevalence rates above around 30 percent are declared as 'red' status areas.   After the previous year the team carried out increased sanitation efforts, one of which was through increasing community knowledge in the target area of ​​ Melayu TengahVillage, East Martapura District, Banjar Regency, community service in 2024 will focus on interventions on environmental health aspects in the form of building faecal disposal facilities and household wastewater management. It is hoped that the stairs will become an example and even become a habit for the community in their daily lives, so that they can prevent the transmission of infectious diseases which have a further impact on the incidence of stunting.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant public health concern in Indonesia and worldwide. It is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, an acid-fast bacillus transmitted through airborne droplets. This study aimed to analyze the factors associated with the incidence of pulmonary TB in the working area of Puskesmas Tambang Ulang. An observational analytic study with a case-control design was conducted. A total of 45 respondents were selected using purposive sampling, consisting of 15 cases and 30 controls. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test and Odds Ratio (OR) calculations. The results showed significant associations between pulmonary TB incidence and several factors: ventilation (p = 0.002; OR = 9.333), occupancy density (p = 0.003; OR = 9.750), humidity (p = 0.003; OR = 8.000), temperature (p = 0.001; OR = 11.000), physical contact (p = 0.006; OR = 6.417), and smoking habits (p = 0.001; OR = 11.000). These findings indicate that both environmental conditions and personal behaviors contribute to the risk of TB transmission. It is recommended that communities adopt preventive behaviors such as regularly opening windows for ventilation, avoiding physical contact with TB patients, and reducing smoking habits. These efforts are expected to support health promotion strategies and serve as a basis for targeted TB prevention programs in the community.

Abstract

Waste management has become a pressing environmental issue in Banjarbaru City, with increased waste generation due to population growth and economic activities. This study aims to provide a comprehensive picture of waste generation, composition, and community behavior in waste management. The research method was quantitative, with sampling based on the SNI 19-3964-1994 standard. Primary data was collected through a survey of 112 households and questionnaire-based interviews. Analysis was conducted using the chi-square test to identify the relationship between behavioral variables and waste generation. The results showed that the average daily waste generation reached 4.91 kg for wet and 2.80 kg for dry waste. Wet waste is dominated by organic waste, while dry waste comprises plastic and paper. An analysis of community behavior shows that only 20% of respondents actively separate organic and inorganic waste. Implementing programs such as waste banks helps reduce the burden on landfills, but infrastructure and community awareness challenges remain. Statistically, no significant relationship was found between community behavior in waste handling/management at the household level and the amount of waste generated, with p-values ranging from 0.099 to 1.000 (=5%). The conclusion of this study highlights the importance of collaboration between government, community, and technology to create effective and sustainable waste management

Abstract

Landfills are a critical component of urban solid waste management systems; however, when inadequately managed, they may pose substantial risks to environmental quality and public health in surrounding communities. This study aimed to analyze environmental quality and public health risks in the vicinity of the Banjarbakula Landfill. A descriptive–analytic cross-sectional design was employed, integrating measurements of ambient air quality, groundwater quality, and soil quality at selected locations around the landfill with a community health survey. Risk analysis was conducted using the Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Determining Control (HIRADC) method. The results indicated that concentrations of landfill gases and airborne particulates exceeded environmental quality standards, while groundwater and soil samples were contaminated with heavy metals, including lead, mercury, and cadmium. The community health survey revealed a high prevalence of respiratory disorders, skin diseases, and gastrointestinal disturbances, particularly among residents living closer to the landfill site. Risk assessment identified chemical and biological hazards as the dominant risks, classified as high risk. These findings demonstrate that the management of the Banjarbakula Landfill still requires significant improvements to reduce environmental degradation and public health risks. This study provides a scientific basis for strengthening policy implementation, enhancing landfill management technologies, and improving public health protection in communities surrounding landfill areas.
