Abstract

Nutritional problems such as stunting and anemia in children, as well as the increasing prevalence of degenerative diseases among the productive-age population, remain major public health challenges in Indonesia. Children living in orphanages are at higher risk of nutritional problems due to limited access to balanced meals, lack of health education, and suboptimal living conditions. This community service program aimed to screen for stunting and anemia among children and to detect early risk factors for degenerative diseases among orphanage caregivers. The partner of this activity was Panti Asuhan Generasi Pengubah Kupang, which accommodates children from underprivileged families. The methods included anthropometric measurements, hemoglobin and hematocrit assessments and lipid profile and blood glucose examinations. Additionally, health education sessions were conducted on anemia, stunting, and metabolic syndrome using educational posters and interactive discussions. The results showed that 60.4% of respondents experienced anemia, predominantly mild anemia, and several children were identified as being at risk of stunting. Lipid profile and blood glucose screening among caregivers revealed elevated cholesterol and triglyceride levels in two respondents, indicating a high risk of cardiovascular disease and prediabetes. The health education sessions improved participants’ knowledge regarding balanced nutrition, physical activity, and the importance of regular health check-ups. This program successfully enhanced health awareness, improved caregivers’ skills in independent health monitoring, and strengthened collaboration with local primary health care centers for follow-up and routine monitoring.

Abstract

The prevalence of diabetes mellitus continues to increase, alongside a growing burden of central obesity as a major contributing risk factor. The waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) serves as a practical anthropometric indicator for assessing central obesity, whereas glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) reflects long-term glycemic control. Nevertheless, the evidence regarding the association between WHR and HbA1c levels remains inconclusive and varies across studies. Research objective to analyze the relationship between waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) and HbA1c levels among patients with diabetes mellitus at primary health care centers in Kupang City. This study employed a cross-sectional design. Venous blood samples were collected to measure HbA1c levels, while waist and hip circumferences were measured to obtain the waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) values. Data were analyzed using the Chi Square test. Result: The respondents were aged 18–59 years. The Chi-Square analysis indicated a non-significant association, with a p-value of 0.067. There was no significant association between waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) and HbA1c levels among patients with diabetes mellitus at community health centers in Kupang City. Glycemic control is influenced not only by anthropometric parameters but also by various other factors, including dietary patterns, sex, physical activity, and lifestyle behaviors.

Abstract

Insufficient physical activity is a major risk factor for obesity, which is a global health problem, including in Indonesia. Community health center employees as health workers have a high risk of becoming obese due to a sedentary lifestyle. This study aims to explore the relationship between physical activity and body mass index (BMI) in UPTD employees of La'o Community Health Center, Wali Village, Langke Rembong District. This research uses design cross-sectional with a sample of 54 health center employees selected randomly purposive sampling. Physical activity data was collected using a questionnaire-based questionnaire Metabolic Equivalent of Task (METs), while BMI is calculated from measurements of weight and height. Data analysis was carried out using the Fisher’s Exact test. Respondents with active physical activity mostly had a normal Body Mass Index (BMI), while respondents with inactive physical activity were more likely to have an abnormal BMI. Overall, 63% of respondents had a normal BMI and 37% had an abnormal BMI, with the proportion of active and inactive respondents each being 50%. The findings from the analysis conducted with Fisher's Exact Test indicated a notable connection between exercise and Body Mass Index, with a p-value of less than 0.001. A clear link exists between exercise and BMI among employees at community health centers. Boosting physical activity can serve as a crucial approach to avoid obesity in healthcare workers.

Abstract

Tension-type headache (TTH) has a high prevalence among university students, a population characterized by intensive digital device use. This study aimed to explore the contribution of device usage duration and blue light filter implementation to the risk of developing TTH. To analyze the association between digital device usage duration and blue light filter utilization with the incidence of TTH among engineering students at the Faculty of Science and Engineering, Universitas Nusa Cendana. This study employed a quantitative correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. Participants were recruited using consecutive sampling, involving 68 students. TTH was identified using the Headache Screening Questionnaire (HSQ), while data on device usage duration and blue light filter utilization were collected through a structured questionnaire. Bivariate analysis was conducted using the Chi-Square test, followed by contingency coefficient calculation to determine the strength of association. A statistically significant association was found between digital device usage duration and TTH incidence (p < 0,05), with a moderate correlation strength. Conversely, no significant association was observed between blue light filter utilization and TTH incidence (p > 0,05). Digital device usage duration constitutes a significant risk factor for TTH among engineering students, whereas blue light filter utilization did not demonstrate a meaningful protective effect.

Abstract

Hemodialysis is a treatment that begins once a person is identified as having end-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD) and will continue for the duration of their life or until the individual has a kidney transplant. Nevertheless, many CKD patients receiving hemodialysis often face issues with malnutrition. This research aimed to explore how the length of time spent on hemodialysis affects the nutritional health of CKD patients in Kupang City. The study used an observational analytical method with a cross-sectional approach through direct interviews and Body Mass Index (BMI) measurements. Sampling was conducted using consecutive sampling with 110 patients, and analysis was performed using the Chi-Square test. The findings revealed that a large portion of participants fell within the age range of 41 to 60 years (47.3%) and that most were male (57.3%). Hypertension emerged as the most prevalent comorbidity, affecting 32.9% of the subjects. A significant number of individuals received hemodialysis two times a week (84.5%) and had been undergoing this treatment for over 24 months (37.3%). The bivariate analysis indicated no notable connection between the length of hemodialysis and nutritional health as defined by BMI (P>0.05), yet a significant association was found between the duration of hemodialysis and nutritional health assessed via the Simple Nutrition Screening Tool (P<0.05). Consistent nutritional assessments using the Simple Nutrition Screening Tool are essential for all hemodialysis patients to identify malnutrition risks early, allowing timely and appropriate dietary interventions. It is recommended that patients focus more on their nutritional habits and follow dietary guidelines set by nutritionists to avoid malnutrition and its associated issues.

Abstract

Salah satu masalah kesehatan utama di Indonesia ialah permasalahan gizi, baik itu gizi kurang maupun gizi lebih (double burden) yang sering dijumpai pada usia dewasa dengan salah satu penyebabnya yaitu kurangnya pengetauan gizi. Berdasarkan survey Tim Health Promoting University (HPU) di Undana, didapati belum adanya pola makan sehat yang terbentuk di kalangan mahasiswa. Selain itu, dari hasil survei tersebut juga menunjukkan adanya keterbatasan SDM profesional bidang gizi, finansial, dan waktu. Maka untuk mengatasi keterbatasan tersebut sekaligus mampu menjangkau mahasiswa Undana yang berjumlah sekitar 30.000 orang maka diperlukan strategi khusus. Salah satunya menggunakan metode peer teaching (dengan memperhatikan kriteria dalam seleksi tutor terkait prior knowledge gizi kelompok tutor), dimana dalam penelitian ini dilakukan dengan cara mahasiswa yang memiliki prior knowledge gizi dan yang tidak memiliki prior knowleedge gizi (peer tutor) mengajar mahasiswa lain (peer tutee) dalam Pelatihan Gizi Seimbang sebagai upaya peningkatan pengetahuan gizi seimbang. Mengetahui pengaruh prior knowledge peer tutor terhadap keberhasilan peer teaching dari segi tingkat pengetahuan gizi dalam pelatihan gizi seimbang pada mahasiswa Universitas Nusa Cendana. Penelitian quasi experimental dengan bentuk pretest-posttest design with non-equivalent group dengan total responden 85 mahasiswa yang dibagi berdasarkan volunteer sampling ke dalam kelompok perlakuan Ia (n=18), Ib (n=16), IIa (n=24), dan IIb (n=27). Kemudian dilakukan training of trainer (TOT) dalam Pelatihan Gizi Seimbang yang diberikan oleh mentor (ahli di bidang gizi) kepada kelompok perlakuan Ia dan Ib (peer tutor dengan prior knowledge gizi dan peer tutor tanpa prior knowledge gizi).
