Indonesia is one of the countries with a high enough DBD case and often occurs KLB. Many efforts and preventive programs have been done, but the cases of DBD continue to increase annually. This research aims to explain the correlation of knowledge, customs hanging clothes, and water container with the incidence of DBD in the work area Oesapa Puskesmas Kupang City. This is a quantitative research using the cross-sectional study. The population in this study was 72 people with sampling techniques using the total sampling method. Data analysis used is by univariate analysis and bivariate analysis using the chi-Square test. The results of this research show that the factor that has a relationship with the incidence of DBD is knowledge (ρ = 0.000), the habit of hanging clothes (ρ = 0.000), and the presence of mosquito larva (ρ = 0.001). Communities with low knowledge, poor habits in hanging clothes, and low environmental sanitation can increase the occurrence of environmental DBD cases. The need to increase knowledge in society so that people know, to want, and able to independently prevent the occurrence of DBD in the environment.

Cases in East Nusa Tenggara (Kupang City) for diseases of the muscle system and connective tissue show a total of 12,756 cases with a percentage of 7.3%, which ranks sixth out of 10 most diseases in Kupang City in 2018. The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors associated with complaints of low back pain in weavers in South Letneo Village, Insana Barat Sub-District, Timor Tengah Utara District in 2020. This study was an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design. The sample used in this study consisted of 42 people. Data were analyzed using chi-square with a significance level of α = 0.05. The results showed that of the four research variables studied, all of them had a relationship with complaints of low back pain. The p-value for each variable as follows: age (0,000); working period (0.001); length of work (0,000) and work posture (0.002). Weavers need to have correct work posture and do stretching to minimize the risk of LBP.

Abstract

Dug wells are easily contaminated with pollutants if the quality of construction is poor and if the wells are located close to the source of pollution. Water contamination in the wells in paddy fields may occur due to fertilization and pesticide spraying activities. This study aims to determine the quality of construction and the location of dug wells with sources of pollution, and pesticide substance found in well water. This research was descriptive with a quantitative approach. The study was conducted in the paddy fields of Oesao Village, Kupang Regency in October 2020. A total population of 10 dug wells was selected as the sample.The results showed that 80% of the floor, 90% of the well lip, and 20% of the wall did not meet the requirements. The research also found that 40% of the wells were near the pollutant source. Also, pesticides were identified in half of the wells. In conclusion, the construction and location of the wells had a significant relation with pesticide substances found in the water of dug wells. The Agriculture Office needs to conduct a well-prepared control planning and monitoring for pesticide use among farmers and to transfer knowledge about the waste management of pesticide plastic bottles. The Health office should educate the community about eligible construction of dug wells based on health standards.

Abstract

In Kupang City, greywater is disposed of in the environment without any treatment, so it often causes problems in terms of aesthetics, health and exceeds the specified parameter limits. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the Ecotech garden as one of the methods to treat greywater waste using water ornamental plants. This research type is quasi-experimental with a Group Pretest Posttest Design. The research sample is greywater from the inlet and outlet to be tested in the laboratory. Data were analyzed using the One Way Anova test with a p-value of 0.05, and the quality of wastewater before and after processing would be calculated using the effectiveness formula. Based on the analysis, it was found that the p-value of the three plants was 0,368 and shows that there is no significant difference between the three plants so that one of them can be selected. Based on the effectiveness value, Ecotech garden is considered very effective to reduce the greywater parameters concentration, namely BOD, COD, and TSS by 99% and 97%, while the concentration of ammonia (NH3) and pH both before and after processing are still below the quality standards. The most effective plants are the cattail plants and water hyacinth. It is suggested that Ecotech Garden can be maximally made on a communal scale, such as for housing and boarding houses/ dormitories by using several types of plants to be more effective in treating grey water waste.

Several factors influence stunting in children under two: mother's upbringing, household characteristics, availability of clean water, and environmental sanitation. This study analyzed the risk factors for stunting in children under two years old in Helebeik Village, Lobalain District, and Rote Ndao Regency. This type of research was an analytic survey with a case-control study design. The population in this study was 218 children under two years old. The sampling technique used the proportional sampling method with 88 children under two years old, 44 children under two years old in the case group, and 44 other children under two years old in the control group. The results showed a significant relationship between hygiene practice, nursing practice, mother's education, number of families, type of floor, latrines, trash cans, and clean water with stunting, where the p-value <0.05. Meanwhile, there was no relationship between feeding practices and stunting, with a p-value of 0.05. Relevant agencies should monitor and control stunting in Baduta to minimize the incidence of stunting.
