Abstract

Salt is a dietary supplement and source of electrolytes for the human body. Salt contains iodine. Iodine is a trace mineral that must be present in the body to form thyroid hormones and is beneficial for the body's metabolism. Iodine deficiency leads to goiter disease at various stages, slows growth in children and adults, as well as lowers labour productivity. The purpose of this service activity is to find out the use of iodized salt in Halahalaya Hamlet, Kanreapia Village. This type of service is an observational activity with a population consisting of heads of households in 92 households in Halahalaya Village. Data on the use of iodized salt were collected through interviews and direct observation using questionnaires. The results of the service showed that out of 92 households, 87 households (94.6%) used packaged salt labelled iodine, 5 households (5.4%) did not use packaged salt labelled iodine, iodine test results of 12 households were white (13.0%). ), light purple iodine test results in 20 households (21.7%), dark purple iodine test results in 60 households (65.2%). The conclusion of the service is that the availability of iodized salt in Halahalaya Hamlet, Kanreapia Village is sufficient, but there is still a lack of community understanding of the use of good iodized salt, therefore cross-disciplinary cooperation is needed to a growing community knowledge.

Abstract

Eating habits in school children are formed from an early age and form the basis of children's nutritional intake patterns at a later age. The aim of this service is to increase school children's knowledge about balanced nutrition and children's skills in choosing balanced nutritious food through the socialization of “fill my plate” (in Indonesia: “isi piringku”). The target participants of this service activity are 50 elementary school children on Liukang Loe Island, Bulukumba Regency. The knowledge of the target group was assessed through pre and post-tests distributed before and after socialization. Pre-test and post test data were then analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. The results of data analysis showed that in the initial condition, the target group with sufficient knowledge of 44% increased to 68% in the condition after socialization. The Wilcoxon test results showed that there was a significant difference in knowledge level between before and after the target group received the "fill of my plate" socialization (p=0.004 <0.05). The target group of elementary school children was very enthusiastic in participating in the socialization and became a good alternative in increasing students' knowledge related to portion intake and food variations.

Abstract

Kebiasaan merokok merupakan faktor risiko utama penyakit kardiovaskular, dengan dampak negatif yang luas pada sistem kardiovaskular, seperti yang didokumentasikan dalam berbagai literatur. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meneliti hubungan antara kebiasaan merokok dan profil kardiovaskular, khususnya tekanan darah dan Indeks Massa Tubuh (IMT), di dataran tinggi Malino. Menggunakan desain cross-sectional, penelitian ini melibatkan 1.404 responden dewasa berusia 18-65 tahun yang dipilih secara purposive sampling. Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan uji deskriptif dan uji Mann-Whitney, dengan tingkat signifikansi statistik ditetapkan pada p-value < 0,05. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ada korelasi positif antara tekanan darah diastolik dan durasi merokok (r=0.126) dengan perbedaan rata-rata yang signifikan (P=0,01). Selain itu, variabel IMT menunjukkan perbedaan yang signifikan secara statistik berdasarkan kategori tipe perokok (P=<0,001) dan durasi merokok (P=0,01). Durasi merokok lebih dari 10 tahun secara signifikan berpengaruh terhadap peningkatan tekanan darah diastolik dan IMT. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan intervensi yang masif dan sistematis untuk mencegah merokok jangka panjang dan melindungi masyarakat dari paparan asap rokok, baik untuk perokok aktif maupun pasif melalui kampanye rutin, seminar, dan kegiatan edukatif lain dengan melibatkan tokoh lintas sektor untuk mengurangi risiko komplikasi kardiovaskular. Selain itu, untuk menurunkan prevalensi perokok baru di Malino yang dingin, pemerintah dapat meningkatkan akses minuman hangat lokal seperti sarabba, teh, dan kopi di area pertemuan masyarakat. Program ini tidak hanya lebih sehat tetapi juga mempromosikan produk lokal Malino, seperti teh dan kopi.

Abstract

Stunting is a significant global health problem, with an estimated 149 million children under five experiencing this condition in 2018. Moringa is a nutrient-rich plant recommended by WHO as an alternative food to overcome nutritional problems or malnutrition. This service aims to increase knowledge about the use of moringa to prevent stunting, encourage active community participation in planting moringa trees in every home, and hone family skills in innovation in processing moringa-based food. The service method uses a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach. This program is conducted through education, training, and mentoring using lecture, discussion, and direct practice methods. The results of the service showed a positive response from the community, as seen from their activeness during education and socialization of Moringa-based food innovations. This education succeeded in increasing public understanding about using Moringa leaves to prevent stunting, with pre-test and post-test data showing an increase in knowledge from 44.60 to 93.00. This program also distributed 500 Moringa tree seeds and trained people to make processed Moringa products into innovative foods, such as pudding and brownies, opening up economic opportunities. This program is expected to provide sustainable benefits for the health and welfare of the local economy.

Abstract

Anemia is one of the common health problems worldwide, where there are around 1.62 billion people in the world suffering from anemia, or around 24.8% of the global population. This activity aims to provide education about anemia to adolescent girls at MTS Madani, Gowa Regency, through an interactive anemia literacy approach and health checks to detect anemia conditions early. This approach includes a series of structured stages, starting from pre-test, initial socialization, counseling, interactive discussion, health screening, to evaluation. The results obtained in the pre-test showed that 56.7% of respondents had sufficient knowledge about anemia, while in the post-test, this figure increased to 60.8%. Although there was a significant increase (P =0.000), a small percentage of respondents still had insufficient knowledge after attending the education, although the percentage was slightly lower in the post-test (39.2%) compared to the pre-test (43.3%). This suggests that the education provided can increase community literacy about anemia, but there is a need to continue to improve the quality and methods of counseling to achieve a more even level of understanding.

Abstract

Diarrhea remains a significant public health concern in Indonesia, particularly among toddlers, with high morbidity and mortality rates largely influenced by environmental sanitation. Despite extensive efforts, many regions continue to exhibit inadequate sanitation conditions. This study aimed to analyze the association between environmental sanitation factors and the incidence of diarrhea in children aged 12–59 months in the Kanjilo Health Center area, Gowa Regency. Employing a quantitative cross-sectional design, the study involved 331 purposively selected mothers of children under five from a population of 1,906. Data collection utilized structured questionnaires and was analyzed using the chi-square test. Findings revealed a significant relationship between diarrhea incidence and both the source of drinking water (p = 0.018) and waste bin condition (p = 0.033), while the wastewater disposal system was not significantly associated (p = 0.074). Among the participants, 39.9% reported toddlers with diarrhea episodes, indicating substantial exposure to environmental risk factors. These findings highlight the need for targeted interventions to enhance water safety and solid waste management in rural health settings. Strengthening sanitation infrastructure may substantially reduce diarrhea incidence among toddlers, thereby improving child health outcomes in rural Indonesian communities.

Abstract

Previous studies on household waste management have predominantly focused on urban settings with established infrastructure, leaving a gap in the understanding of waste-related behaviors in remote island communities. This study explores the behavior of residents toward household waste management on Barrang Lompo Island, Kecamatan Sangkarrang, South Sulawesi. Employing a quantitative descriptive observational design, this research surveyed 307 respondents from a total of 1,324 households using non-probability convenience sampling. The independent variables included knowledge, attitude, and practice, while the dependent variable was household waste management. The results revealed that community knowledge was predominantly good (76.6%), although attitudes were mainly less favorable (60.2%), and actions were generally poor (51.5%). These findings suggest that while awareness is relatively high, it has not translated into consistent behavior, indicating a disconnect between knowledge and practice. The study underscores the urgent need for targeted environmental education, local regulation, and collaboration with public agencies to enhance sustainable waste practices. These implications are especially vital for remote and densely populated island communities where poor waste handling poses severe environmental and public health risks.

Abstract

Introduction: Hypertension is a major non-communicable disease with a high prevalence in Indonesia, particularly in rural areas. Although farmers are generally engaged in physical labor, lifestyle factors such as unhealthy dietary patterns and poor nutritional status may contribute to elevated blood pressure. The existing literature has yet to fully integrate dietary patterns, physical activity, and BMI within a nutritional ecology framework to understand hypertension among rural farming populations; this study addresses that gap.This study aimed to analyze the association between dietary patterns, physical activity, and Body Mass Index/BMI (nutritional status) with hypertension among farmers in Kanreapia Village, Indonesia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 908 farmers aged 35–59 years, selected through simple random sampling. Data were collected via structured interviews and measurements of blood pressure and anthropometry. Data analysis included univariate, bivariate (Chi-Square test), and multivariate analysis using logistic regression. Results: The prevalence of hypertension among respondents was 51.2%. Bivariate analysis showed significant associations between age, smoking habits, risky dietary patterns (such as consumption of salty foods, grilled foods, processed meats, and instant noodles), and BMI with hypertension (p< 0.05). However, multivariate analysis identified only nutritional status (BMI) as significantly associated with hypertension (p < 0.001; OR = 0.41; CI: 0.508–0.809). Other variables were not statistically significant, including salty food consumption (OR = 0.999; CI: 0.758–1.316), grilled foods (OR = 0.963; CI: 0.613–1.514), processed meat/chicken/fish with preservatives (OR = 1.202; CI: 0.774–1.866), instant foods (OR = 0.957; CI: 0.729–1.255), and fruit consumption as a fiber source (OR = 1.124; CI: 0.847–1.491). Conclusion: Nutritional status is the main determinant of hypertension among farmers, even though risky dietary patterns and physical activity showed significant associations in bivariate analysis. Public health interventions focusing on weight management and nutrition education are essential to reduce hypertension risk in rural farming communities.
