Abstract

Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSD) a disorder that cause damage to tissues, muscles, joints, nerves, and bones due to unergonomic working attitudes. Unergonomic work attitudes are often observed among sewing workers. One of the complaints of MSD, low back pain, occupies the highest position in the Gresik Regency in 2023. Sack-sewing workers perform sewing standing; therefore, they often experience leg pain. This study aimed to describe the risk factors for MSD in sack sewing workers in the Duduk Sampeyan District in the production section using a total sampling technique of 39 workers. This type of research uses observational descriptive and descriptive analysis to determine the RR value. Data was obtained from interviews and observations of work posture. The instruments used were Nordic Body Map, Rapid Entire Body Assessment, and %CVL. The results of this study showed that the highest level of pain experienced by workers was in the left leg. The work period showed a tendency towards MSD complaints with a p-value 0.00 and RR 5.8, which means that a working period of > 5 years are 5.8 times more likely to experience MSD than workers with a working period of ≤ 5 years. Although the work posture was not significant, it was in the medium and high categories. Recommendations that can be given are to adjust the height of the sewing table to the worker's anthropometry, stretch during breaks, especially the legs, and form an Occupational Health Post in Duduk Sampeyan District.

Abstract

Background:  Diphtheria remains a significant public health concern in several regions of Indonesia, including Jember Regency, where periodic outbreaks persist. Purpose:  This study aimed to describe the distribution of diphtheria cases in Jember Regency from 2023 to 2024 based on person, place, and time. Methods:  A descriptive epidemiological study was conducted using secondary data from the Jember District Health Office, including all reported diphtheria cases from January 2023 to December 2024. The study population comprised all confirmed diphtheria cases during the study period, with data sources including case investigation forms, immunization records, and surveillance reports. Data were collected using a standardized extraction form and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Temporal trends were assessed through epidemic curves, while spatial distribution was mapped using Geographic Information System (GIS) software to visualize the relationship between immunization coverage and case occurrence. Results:  A total of 27 diphtheria cases, or approximately 1.04 cases per 100,000 population, were reported. Most cases occurred among children aged 14 years or older, and clusters of cases were observed in subdistricts with low immunization coverage. The epidemic curve revealed distinct peaks in 2023 during weeks 23–27 and 28–31, while in 2024, peaks occurred during weeks 1–5 and 23–27. While GIS mapping demonstrated a clear spatial distribution between under-immunized areas and increased diphtheria incidence. Conclusion:  Diphtheria cases were predominantly concentrated in areas with low immunization coverage, highlighting the need to strengthen immunization programs in vulnerable communities.

Abstract

Background: Superficial mycoses are a common global health problem among fishermen, particularly in tropical regions. Factors such as personal hygiene, length of employment, and obesity have been associated with superficial mycoses, while continuous exposure to high-salt seawater in fishermen’s occupational environments has been hypothesized as a potential protective factor. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors for the incidence of superficial mycoses among fishermen at the Puger Fish Auction Place (FAP) in Jember Regency.Methods: This cross‑sectional analytic study included 97 fishermen selected through quota sampling at Puger Primary Healthcare (PHC). Data on personal hygiene and length of employment were collected using validated questionnaires; obesity status was determined by Body Mass Index (BMI); and superficial mycoses were diagnosed by clinical examination. Univariable analysis described the distribution of all variables, and bivariable analysis using the Chi‑square test assessed associations between risk factors and superficial mycoses.Result: The prevalence of superficial mycoses was 10.3% (10/97). There were no statistically significant associations between personal hygiene (prevalence ratio/PR 1.88; 95% CI 0.42–8.33; p=0.494), length of employment (PR 0.88; 95% CI 0.81–0.95; p=0.353), or obesity (PR 0.36; 95% CI 0.10–1.30; p=0.178) and superficial mycoses.Conclusion: In this cross-sectional study, personal hygiene, length of employment, and obesity were not significantly associated with superficial mycoses among fishermen at Puger Primary Health Care. The relatively low prevalence of infection despite high exposure to conventional risk factors suggests that occupational environmental factors may contribute to reduced susceptibility to infection.
