Abstract

Background: Labels of packaged foods are used as guidelines for buying packaged food products. School students are a group at high risk to get illness through ingested food. Most of the snacks they consume contain flavorings and some chemicals which are certainly not good for their health. Objective: To determine the relation between knowledge and behavior of reading the packaged food label composition on JHS students in Kupang. Methods: This is an observational analytical study with a cross sectional design conducted at two schools located in Kupang City. 350 subjects were used in this study and divided into Group A consisting of 175 Public JHS students and Group B consisting of 175 Giovanni JHS students, using a google form questionnaire. The respondents were chosen by cluster random sampling technique. This study was analyzed bivariately using the Spearman correlation test. Result: A total of 172 (98.3%) students of Public and Giovanni JHS have very good knowledge about reading the packaged food label composition. A total of 169 (96.5%) students of Public JHS have very good behavior of reading the packaged food label composition and a total of 99 (56.5%) students of Giovanni JHS have good behavior of reading the packaged food label composition. Conclusion: There is a significant correlation (p = 0.004) between knowledge and behavior of reading the packaged food label composition on Public JHS students and there is also a significant correlation (p = 0.046) between knowledge and behavior of reading the packaged food label composition on Giovanni JHS students in Kupang.

Abstract

Tuberkulosis (TB) masih menjadi masalah kesehatan masyarakat yang berdampak pada aspek medis dan sosial ekonomi penderita. Meskipun pengobatan TB disediakan secara gratis oleh pemerintah, pasien tetap menanggung biaya langsung non-medis dan biaya tidak langsung selama proses pengobatan. Di Kota Kupang, tingginya proporsi pekerja sektor informal serta penduduk dengan pendapatan di bawah Upah Minimum Regional (UMR) diduga berkontribusi terhadap beban ekonomi yang dialami penderita TB. Menganalisis beban ekonomi penderita tuberkulosis berdasarkan status pekerjaan dan tingkat pendapatan di Kota Kupang. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian observasional analitik dengan pendekatan cross-sectional. Sampel terdiri dari 90 penderita TB yang telah menjalani pengobatan minimal satu bulan dan dipilih menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan kuesioner survei pembiayaan pasien TB yang mencakup biaya langsung non-medis dan biaya tidak langsung. Analisis data dilakukan secara univariat dan bivariat menggunakan uji Mann-Whitney. Median total beban ekonomi penderita TB berdasarkan status pekerjaan adalah Rp50.000,00 dengan rentang Rp5.000,00 hingga Rp5.020.000,00. Hasil uji Mann-Whitney menunjukkan tidak terdapat perbedaan bermakna antara kelompok pekerjaan formal dan informal (p = 0,358). Median total beban ekonomi berdasarkan tingkat pendapatan adalah Rp64.000,00 dengan rentang yang sama, dan tidak terdapat perbedaan signifikan antara kelompok pendapatan di bawah UMR dan ≥UMR (p = 0,208). Analisis bivariat terhadap biaya langsung non-medis dan biaya tidak langsung juga menunjukkan tidak adanya perbedaan bermakna baik berdasarkan status pekerjaan maupun tingkat pendapatan (p > 0,05). Tidak terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan antara beban ekonomi penderita tuberkulosis berdasarkan status pekerjaan dan tingkat pendapatan di Kota Kupang.

The sampling technique was stratified random sampling with a sample size of 157 respondents from the 2018, 2019 dan 2020 batches. Learning approach data were obtained from filling out the ASSIST questionnaire and burnout data were abtained from filling out the CBI-S questionnaire via google form. The study was analyzed by univariate, bivariate using the coefficient contingency and multivariate using logistic regression. Result: The result of bivariate analysis with the Contingency Coefficient test obtained p value = 0,027(p<0,05) and r=0,288 Conclusion: There is a significant and weak relationship between learning approach and burnout among students of the Faculty of Medicine, University of Nusa Cendana.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a non-communicable disease with an increasing global prevalence. Effective monitoring and management are essential to reduce disease burden and prevent complications, including through HbA1c assessment and nutritional status evaluation such as Body Mass Index (BMI) and Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC), which are feasible in primary health care settings. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between nutritional status and HbA1c levels among patients with Diabetes Mellitus at primary health centers in Kupang City. A cross-sectional design was conducted among 69 respondents selected using consecutive sampling at Oepoi, Sikumana, and Bakunase Primary Health Centers. Data were collected through BMI and MUAC measurements and HbA1c examination and analyzed using Pearson correlation test. The results indicated that most respondents were female, overweight based on BMI, had normal MUAC, and uncontrolled HbA1c levels. Statistical analysis showed no significant association between BMI and HbA1c levels (p > 0.05) nor between MUAC and HbA1c levels (p > 0.05). In conclusion, nutritional status was not significantly associated with HbA1c levels among DM patients. Glycemic control may be influenced by factors beyond anthropometric indicators.

Abstract

Primary dysmenorrhea ranks among the most prevalent menstrual issues in teenagers, impacting their everyday life and general well-being. The age at which menstruation begins has frequently been linked to the likelihood of experiencing dysmenorrhea; however, previous studies have produced mixed results. The goal of this research was to examine the connection between the age of menarche and the incidence of primary dysmenorrhea in female students at Kristen Citra Bangsa Mandiri Junior High School in Kupang. This investigation utilized an analytical observational method with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 54 students were chosen using purposive sampling according to specific inclusion and exclusion standards. Menarche age was classified as early (younger than 12 years), normal (12 to 14 years), and late (older than 14 years). The WaLIDD Score was employed to evaluate primary dysmenorrhea. The data were processed using the chi-square test, with a significance threshold set at p<0.05. The findings indicated that 55.6% of female students had a normal age for the start of menstruation, while 44.4% started early. The occurrence of primary dysmenorrhea was found to be 77.8%, with mild cases at 38.9%, moderate cases at 31.5%, and severe cases at 7.4%. Those who did not experience primary dysmenorrhea made up 22.2% of the respondents. The statistical analysis yielded a p=0.90 value. There was no significant link between the age of menarche and the prevalence of primary dysmenorrhea among students at Citra Bangsa Mandiri Christian Junior High School in Kupang City.

Abstract

Tension-Type Headache (TTH) is the most common headache and is often stress-related. Engineering students face high academic burdens that may trigger insomnia and affect pain thresholds. Despite neuroanatomical links between sleep and pain, evidence regarding the insomnia-TTH relationship in this group remains inconsistent. Objective: To determine the relationship between insomnia and TTH among engineering students at the Faculty of Science and Engineering, Universitas Nusa Cendana. This analytic observational study used a cross-sectional design. Stratified random sampling selected 52 active students from the cohorts of 2022, 2023, and 2024. Instruments included the Headache Screening Questionnaire (HSQ) and Insomnia Severity Index (ISI). Data were analyzed using the Spearman correlation test. The prevalence of insomnia among respondents was predominantly categorized as subthreshold insomnia (42.3%) and moderate clinical insomnia (42.3%). The prevalence of TTH was also high, with 65.4% of respondents experiencing TTH and 23.1% experiencing probable TTH. Bivariate analysis results indicated no significant relationship between insomnia and Tension-Type Headache ($p=0.667$; $r= -0.061$). The very weak negative correlation indicates that an increase in insomnia scores was not statistically associated with an increase in TTH incidence. Insomnia and TTH prevalence are high among engineering students, but no significant relationship was found between insomnia and TTH in this population.
