Abstract

Purpose: Nitrosamines, chemical compounds formed from nitrites and amines, are gaining attention due to potential health risks. They are found in processed foods, such as cured meats, smoked fish, and fermented products, prompting a thorough examination of their sources and impact on health. This study aims to explore the nitrosamine content in food and its potential public health implications. Methods: This study employs a descriptive literature review methodology to investigate the impact of nitrosamine content in food on human health. It searches peer-reviewed journals, books, and online databases to identify relevant studies on food risk processing that contain nitrosamines and their impact on public health. Results: The review includes studies published over the past 20 years, focusing on nitrosamine content, nitrosamine formation processes, and health implications. Data from selected studies is systematically extracted and analyzed, focusing on patterns, risk factors, and health impacts, particularly in terms of cancer risk. Conclusion: This review found they pose significant public health risks, especially in meat products. Studies show a strong link between nitrosamine intake and increased risk of gastric and esophageal cancers. The detection and mitigation of nitrosamines are crucial, with more stringent regulations and improved testing techniques being needed in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract

Background: Diarrhea remains a prominent factor contributing to the high rate of child mortality, particularly observed in children under the age of five. This study assessed the relationship between sanitation coverage and diarrhea outcomes among children under five in Matabeleland, South Province of Zimbabwe. Methods: The study utilized a quantitative cross-sectional study using a Demographic Health Survey and assesses from the 2019 Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS). This data is freely available at https://mics.unicef.org/surveys. A total of 518 mothers were analyzed in this research based on the secondary data from the 2019 MICS findings. The variables studied were the mother's education, wealth, handwashing, sanitation coverage, shared sanitation facilities, child age, residence, and religion. Results: The analysis revealed significant associations for both the age of the child and residence in Matabeleland, South Province; for age, the p-value was 0.039 with an OR of 0.594 and a 95% Confidence Interval (0.362-0.974), and residence with a p-value of 0.004 and OR of a 95% CI (1.329-4.484). Conclusion: sanitation coverage was not significant in this study. Therefore, health and hygiene education campaigns should be conducted to equip caregivers with adequate knowledge that is essential for the prevention of diarrhea.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Rokan Hilir is the region with the lowest environmental health achievement in Riau Province in 2022 with diarrhea still being one of the most widely reported disease problems. This research aimed to map the distribution and vulnerability of diarrhea in Rokan Hilir Regency. This research used an ecological research design with QGIS 3.38.2 software and a scoring method for mapping diarrhea vulnerability. The data used were secondary data from the Rokan Hilir Regency Health Office. The results of the study showed that the distribution of diarrhea varies in each region, with the achievement of access to proper sanitation, access to safe drinking water, handwashing behavior with soap, and open defecation being dominated by very low levels of achievement in many areas of Rokan Hilir. The priority area for handling diarrhea in Rokan Hilir Regency is Bangko District. Keywords: Vulnerability, Dhiarrhea, Environmental Health, GIS  ABSTRAK Rokan Hilir merupakan wilayah dengan capaian kesehatan lingkungan terendah se-Provinsi Riau pada tahun 2022 dengan diare yang masih menjadi salah satu masalah penyakit yang banyak dilaporkan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memetakan sebaran dan kerawanan diare di Kabupaten Rokan Hilir. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian ekologi dengan perangkat lunak QGIS 3.38.2 dan metode skoring dalam pemetaan kerawanan diare. Data yang digunakan merupakan data sekunder dari Dinas Kesehatan Kabupaten Rokan Hilir. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebaran diare bervariasi di setiap wilayah dengan capaian akses sanitasi layak, akses air minum aman, perilaku cuci tangan pakai sabun, dan buang air besar sembarangan yang didominasi pada tingkat capaian sangat rendah pada banyak wilayah di Rokan Hilir. Wilayah prioritas penanganan diare di Kabupaten Rokan Hilir adalah Kecamatan Bangko. Kata Kunci: Kerawanan, Diare, Kesehatan Lingkungan, SIG

Abstract

Sub-Saharan Africa’s (SSA) children experience a disproportionate burden of environmental health risks, contributing to over half of global under-five deaths despite representing only 27% of live births 1. This scoping review synthesised evidence from sixty-seven (67) eligible studies (2010–2025) to map out environmental exposures affecting children (0–18 years) in Sub-Saharan Africa, and to identify gaps in global interventions. Included studies focused on children (0-18 years) in SSA, addressed one or more of the four predefined environmental exposure domains (air pollution, WASH, toxic chemicals, climate-related risks), and reported on child health outcomes or interventions. Guided by the PRISMA and Arksey and O’Malley frameworks, peer-reviewed articles and organisational reports were identified from WHO, UNICEF, PubMed, and Google Scholar, and scrutinised for exposure-outcome links, study design, and intervention coverage. Evidence was synthesised across four major domains: air pollution, WASH, toxic chemical exposures, and climate-related risks. The results show that household air pollution, unsafe water and sanitation, lead and e-waste contamination, and climate variability consistently contribute to elevated morbidity and mortality among children, particularly those under five years, where most primary data were reported. Despite progress in WASH and emergency response, major gaps persist in air quality monitoring, toxin surveillance, and climate-health integration. Protecting child health in SSA necessitates strengthened multisectoral action across health, environment, WASH, energy, and social protection sectors to enhance monitoring, mitigation, and adaptive responses, ensuring every child’s right to a safe and clean environment. Keywords: Sub-Saharan African children, environmental health risks, pollution, WASH, and climate change

Abstract

Diabetes melitus merupakan penyakit tidak menular dengan prevalensi yang terus meningkat dan memerlukan upaya deteksi dini berbasis komunitas. Kader Penyakit Tidak Menular (PTM) berperan strategis dalam edukasi dan skrining kesehatan masyarakat, namun keterbatasan literasi diabetes dan sarana pemeriksaan masih menjadi kendala. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan meningkatkan literasi diabetes melitus dan kemampuan skrining kesehatan melalui pendampingan kader PTM disertai pemberian alat cek gula darah. Metode pengabdian menggunakan pendekatan pendidikan masyarakat melalui penyuluhan interaktif, diskusi, serta pendampingan praktik pemeriksaan gula darah. Evaluasi dilakukan menggunakan desain pretest–posttest pada tiga domain pengetahuan. Hasil menunjukkan peningkatan rerata skor pengetahuan diabetes melitus dari 83 menjadi 84,33, pengetahuan kadar gula darah dari 75,33 menjadi 78,33, serta pengetahuan tatalaksana diabetes melitus dari 78,33 menjadi 80. Selain peningkatan pengetahuan, kader juga menunjukkan peningkatan keterampilan dan kepercayaan diri dalam melakukan pemeriksaan gula darah sebagai bagian dari skrining kesehatan masyarakat. Pemberian alat cek gula darah mendukung optimalisasi peran kader PTM dalam deteksi dini dan pengendalian diabetes melitus. Kegiatan ini berkontribusi sebagai strategi promotif dan preventif berbasis pemberdayaan masyarakat.
