Abstract

Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease and remains a public health problem in Indonesia, including South Kalimantan. Diet plays a significant role in the development of hypertension, particularly in communities living in river basins characterized by high sodium and low fiber consumption. This study aims to analyze the relationship between dietary patterns and the incidence of hypertension in communities along the Martapura River Basin, South Kalimantan. The study, conducted in 2025, used a cross-sectional design with 260 purposively selected respondents. Data were collected through interviews using a structured questionnaire and blood pressure measurements. The Spearman test showed a significant association between the consumption of fatty foods (Rho=0.323; p=0.000), salty foods (Rho=0.341; p=0.000), fruit (Rho=0.575; p=0.000), and vegetables (Rho=0.477; p=0.000) and the incidence of hypertension. High sodium consumption and low fruit and vegetable consumption are determinants contributing to the high prevalence of hypertension in the Martapura River Basin community. This study emphasizes the need for contextual public health interventions through nutrition education and increased access to healthy foods to reduce the burden of hypertension in the region.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder affecting 589 million people worldwide in 2024, including 11.3% in Indonesia. While nutrition counseling is a cornerstone of DM management, conventional media such as leaflets often fall short in improving dietary compliance. This study aims to analyze the comparative effectiveness of booklets versus leaflets in enhancing the knowledge of patients with Type 2 DM. This quasi-experimental study employed a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design at Nutrition Clinic of dr. H. Andi Abdurrahman Noor Regional General Hospital. The sample included 32 patients with T2DM. The variables assessed were nutrition counseling using leaflets and booklets, and patient knowledge. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon and Mann–Whitney tests. The results showed a significant difference in knowledge before and after nutrition counseling using both leaflet and booklet (p=0.000). There was a significant difference in the average knowledge score between the leaflet and booklet groups (p=0.006), with the leaflet group increasing by 5.81, whereas the booklet group increased by 7.06. In conclusion, booklets were more effective in improving knowledge. DM patients are encouraged to use the booklet to enhance their understanding of the DM diet and support healthier daily eating habits.

Abstract

Stunting merupakan masalah gizi kronis yang berdampak pada pertumbuhan fisik, perkembangan kognitif, serta produktivitas jangka panjang, dan masih menjadi tantangan utama di Indonesia, termasuk di Desa Bi’ih yang mencatat prevalensi 36,1%, lebih tinggi dibandingkan angka kabupaten, provinsi, maupun nasional. Kondisi ini dipengaruhi oleh rendahnya pengetahuan gizi keluarga, ketahanan pangan yang kurang optimal, serta keterbatasan akses pangan bergizi. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kapasitas keluarga balita stunting melalui edukasi gizi, pelatihan pengolahan makanan berbasis pangan lokal, serta pemberdayaan keluarga dalam budidaya sayuran hidroponik sebagai strategi ketahanan pangan. Metode pelaksanaan meliputi penyuluhan interaktif, demonstrasi praktik pengolahan pangan sehat, pelatihan budidaya hidroponik, pendampingan, dan monitoring. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan pengetahuan peserta, ditunjukkan oleh kenaikan skor pretest–posttest dari 28% menjadi 92%, serta keberhasilan keluarga dalam mengoperasikan, memanen, dan melakukan penanaman ulang hidroponik secara mandiri. Program ini juga memperkuat kolaborasi antara pemerintah desa, kader kesehatan, dan keluarga balita dalam upaya pencegahan stunting. Secara keseluruhan, intervensi ini efektif dalam meningkatkan literasi gizi, praktik produksi pangan rumah tangga, serta ketahanan pangan keluarga, sehingga berpotensi menjadi model pemberdayaan berkelanjutan dalam percepatan penurunan stunting di tingkat desa.
