Abstract

Anemia remains one of the major public health problems among female adolescents worldwide and negatively affects physical growth, academic performance, productivity, and reproductive health. Iron (Fe) tablet supplementation has been implemented in Indonesia as an effective strategy to prevent iron deficiency anemia among adolescent girls; however, compliance with iron tablet consumption remains relatively low. This study aimed to determine the relationship between knowledge of anemia and school support with compliance in iron (Fe) tablet consumption among female adolescents at SMAN 1 Tirawuta, East Kolaka Regency. This quantitative study employed a cross-sectional design involving 132 female adolescents selected through proportional random sampling from a population of 198 students. Data were collected using a knowledge of anemia questionnaire, a school support questionnaire, and the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8). Data analysis was performed using univariate and bivariate analyses with the Chi-Square test at a 95% confidence level (α = 0.05). The results indicated that 78.8% of respondents had good knowledge of anemia, 82.6% reported inadequate school support, and 71.2% were non-adherent to iron tablet consumption. Significant relationships were found between knowledge of anemia and adherence to iron tablet consumption consumption (p < 0.000) and between school support and compliance with iron tablet consumption (p = 0.006). The findings highlight the importance of strengthening health education and school-based support systems to improve adolescents' compliance with iron supplementation programs.

Background:Stomatitis is a common oral disease that affects chewing function. Oral hygiene, nutrition, and trauma are thought to be predisposing factors. This study aims to determine the relationship of oral hygiene, nutrition, and trauma to the incidence of stomatitis in the working area of the Ranomeeto Public Health Center, South Konawe Regency. Objective:To analyze the relationship of oral hygiene, nutrition, and trauma to the incidence of stomatitis. Methods:This was a quantitative study with a cross-sectional design involving 68 respondents selected by proportional random sampling. The study was conducted from July to August 2019. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed using the chi-square test. Results showed that oral hygiene (p = 0.007), nutrition (p = 0.000), and trauma (p = 0.000) have a significant relationship with the incidence of stomatitis. Oral hygiene had a moderate correlation (phi coefficient = 0.329), nutrition also had a moderate correlation (phi coefficient = 0.490), and trauma had a strong correlation (phi coefficient = 0.527). Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between oral hygiene, nutrition, trauma, and the incidence of stomatitis in the working area of the Ranomeeto Public Health Center, South Konawe Regency. Attention to oral hygiene, nutrition, and the prevention of trauma is important for effective prevention.
