Abstract

Background: Malaria eradication by 2030 is the UN's third Sustainable Development Goal (SDG). However, malaria still poses a severe threat to public health, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa, which includes The Gambia. The present study explores the factors that impact malaria transmission among artisanal small-scale miners (ASSM) in three districts in the West Coast Region of The Gambia: Kombo East, Kombo Central, and Kombo South. Methods: The researchers carried out a cross-sectional study using one hundred participants from the study area. Using a logistic regression model, the researchers looked at risk variables linked to malaria incidence in the Kombos. Results: Age (Adjusted Prevalence Ratio (APR) = 7.989 with 95% Confidence Interval (CI 1.724–37.002) and the existence of mosquito breeding places (APR = 7.685 with 95% Confidence Interval (CI 1.502–39.309) were shown to be risk variables for malaria in the multivariable analysis. On the other hand, protective factors included higher education level (APR = 0.104 with 95% CI 0.027-0.403), using insect repellents (APR = 0.138 with 95% CI 0.035-0.549), and the state of inside home walls (APR = 0.145 with 95% CI 0.0414-0.511). Conclusions: According to this study's findings, the Gambia's malaria risk variables include age and the presence of mosquito breeding grounds. In addition, having greater knowledge, using insect repellents, and having well-maintained interior walls are all protective factors against malaria. In order to eradicate malaria in Gambia's mining regions, it is strongly advised to decrease risk factors and increase prevention measures through effective communication, information, and education.

Abstract

Background: Heart disease remains a leading cause of death globally and is increasingly prevalent in Indonesia. Preventive behavior plays a crucial role in reducing the burden of this disease, especially among populations with limited healthcare access. This study aims to develop a Perceived Behavior Model based on the Health Belief Model combined with WHO's STEPWise approach to enhance health quality related to heart disease prevention behaviors. Methods: This observational cross-sectional study examined demographic factors, perceived susceptibility, seriousness, barriers, benefits, self-efficacy, and cues to action regarding heart disease preventive behavior. Participants adopted preventive measures such as maintaining a healthy diet, refraining from smoking, avoiding alcohol consumption, and staying physically active. The study surveyed 435 individuals from the total 82,232 BPJS Mandiri (self-paying participants of Indonesia’s National Health Insurance system) members in Banjarmasin, Indonesia, without any intervention. Data analysis was conducted using the Partial Least Square (PLS) method with SmartPLS software version 3.29. The full model of structural equation modeling and theory confirmation also examined the presence or absence of relationships between latent variables. Result: The study found a direct and positive effect of demographic factors on perceived susceptibility, perceived seriousness, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, and self-efficacy, as well as on perceived susceptibility and seriousness regarding heart disease preventive behaviour. Conclusions: Understanding these cultural influences can guide policymakers in strengthening prevention strategies within Indonesia’s Social Security Agency of Health system, reducing financial burdens, and improving public health outcomes. These insights may also inform global discussions on culturally tailored health interventions.
