Abstract

Background: Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among children under five, especially in coastal areas with high housing density and poor ventilation. Unhealthy home environments significantly increase the risk of ARI transmission. Objective: To determine the relationship between housing density and home ventilation with the incidence of ARI among children under five in the coastal area of the Lingkar Timur Public Health Center, Bengkulu City. Methods: This study employed an analytic observational design with a cross-sectional approach. The population consisted of 283 mothers with children under five, and 74 respondents were selected using a simple random sampling technique. Data were collected through interviews and home observations using questionnaires and observation sheets. Data analysis was performed using univariate and bivariate (Chi-square test, α = 0.05). Results: There was a significant relationship between housing density and ARI incidence (χ² = 13.455; p = 0.000) and between home ventilation and ARI incidence (χ² = 29.540; p = 0.000). Children living in houses with overcrowded and poorly ventilated conditions were at a higher risk of developing ARI. Conclusion: Housing density and ventilation are significantly associated with ARI incidence among children under five. Preventive efforts should include improving housing conditions, enhancing family health education, and strengthening community-based interventions to promote healthy homes.

According to KPAI (2022), sexual behavior among adolescents in 38 provinces in Indonesia, based on survey results, reports that 62.7% of Senior High School (SMA) students are not virgins, 22.6% of adolescents have had sexual relations, 97% have watched pornography, and 21.26% have undergone abortions. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between adolescents' knowledge and attitudes towards reproductive health and premarital sexual behavior at SMK Negeri 3, Bengkulu City. The method used is a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional study design. This research was conducted at SMK Negeri 3, Bengkulu City, with the population taken from the XI Broadcasting, XI Beauty, and XII Beauty classes. The data were collected by distributing questionnaires to 75 respondents. The results of univariate analysis showed that the majority of respondents (62.7%) had good knowledge, the majority of respondents (57.3%) had negative attitudes, and the majority of respondents (53.3%) had poor premarital sexual behavior. The results of bivariate analysis indicated a significant relationship between adolescents' knowledge and premarital sexual behavior with a p-value of 0.015, and a relationship between adolescents' attitudes and premarital sexual behavior with a p-value of 0.033. The researchers recommend that the school continue to educate students about reproductive health and the factors that may influence premarital sexual behavior among adolescents.

Abstract

Scabies is a contagious skin disease caused by Sarcoptes scabiei mite. Scabies causes intense itching, especially at night, rashes, and scratches that can lead to secondary bacterial infections. Sleep disturbances due to itching can reduce quality of life and trigger stress, anxiety, and decreased concentration. People with scabies often experience negative stigma because the disease is related to poor hygiene, even though it can be transmitted through close contact in crowded environments such as homes, schools, or orphanages. The purpose of this study is to analyze the risk factors for scabies at Hidayatul Falah Islamic Boarding School in Rejang Lebong Regency. This study used a cross-sectional design. The sample size was 66 respondents using stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a questionnaire administered to 66 students at Hidayatul Falah Islamic Boarding School in Rejang Lebong Regency and processed using SPSS. The results of the univariate analysis showed that most respondents (60.6%) had poor personal hygiene, most respondents (65.2%) had sufficient knowledge, most respondents (62.1%) lived in densely populated areas, and most respondents (54.5%) had experienced scabies. The bivariate analysis results showed that there was a correlation between personal hygiene and the incidence of scabies (p value = 0.004), a correlation between knowledge and the incidence of scabies (p value = 0.002), and a correlation between housing density and the incidence of scabies (p value = 0.035) at Hidayatul Falah Islamic Boarding School in Rejang Lebong Regency. It is hoped that Islamic Boarding Schools, with the assistance of local health centers, can optimize preventive and promotional programs about factors related to scabies.
