Abstract

Dental and oral health is still a problem in society that needs to be considered. Based on The Global Burden of Diseases Study 2016, dental and oral health problems are diseases experienced by almost half of the world's population of 3.58 billion people. This study aimed to determine the effect of using a toothbrush calendar on the behavior of brushing teeth and mouth of students of SDIT Insan Mulia Merangin Jambi. This type of research is analytical in nature with a quasi-experimental design (Quasi Experiment) as a result of certain treatments, one group pretest, and posttest designs, this design does not have a comparison or control group. The approach taken was done three times, namely before the experiment, after the 7th day of the experiment, and after the 14th day of the experiment. This research was conducted at SD IT Insan Mulia Jl. Patimura RT.38 RW.01 km.03, Pematang Kandis Village, Kec. Bangko, Kab. Merangin Prov. Jambi. The time of research was carried out in June 2022 for 16 days. The results of research on the effect of toothbrush calendar on tooth brushing behavior in SD IT Insan Mulia Merangin Jambi students can be concluded that: (1) Toothbrush calendar significantly affects knowledge; (2) Toothbrush calendar significantly influences attitude; (3) Toothbrush calendar significantly influences action; (4) Toothbrush calendar significantly affects plaque.

Abstract

Water pollution is a pressing environmental issue that adversely affects aquatic ecosystems and the usability of water resources. The Batang Masumai River, located in Merangin Regency, Jambi Province, is an essential water source for local communities but faces escalating pollution challenges due to industrial, agricultural, and residential activities. This study analyzes the pollution levels of the Batang Masumai River by assessing seven key parameters: temperature, pH, Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Total Suspended Solids (TSS), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD). A quantitative observational approach was employed, utilizing secondary data collected from 2021 to 2024. The results were evaluated against Class II water quality standards as stipulated in Government Regulation Number 22 of 2021. The findings indicate that while parameters such as temperature and pH generally adhered to acceptable standards, others, notably TSS, BOD, and COD, frequently exceeded the regulatory limits, particularly in 2021. This suggests substantial pollution stemming from untreated wastewater and soil erosion. Although improvements were observed in subsequent years, several parameters remained problematic, posing ongoing risks to aquatic ecosystems and water resource sustainability. These findings underscore the urgent need for enhanced wastewater treatment systems, stricter enforcement of environmental regulations, and the adoption of sustainable watershed management practices to restore and safeguard the ecological health of the river.

Abstract

River water pollution has become a major concern, particularly in regions where human activities occur without proper regulation. This study investigates heavy metal contamination in the Batang Masumai River, Merangin Regency, Jambi Province, where local residents conduct mining near the riverbanks. Water samples were taken from upstream, midstream and downstream, then analyzed using Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS) to detect concentrations of seven metals: mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), nickel (Ni), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), and lead (Pb). Heavy metals  are among the most dangerous pollutants due to their toxicity, persistence, and impact on human health Pollution levels were evaluated through the Heavy Metal Pollution Index (HPI) and compared with SNI 6242:2015 and WHO 2022 standards. The results showed that cadmium, nickel, iron, and mercury exceeded allowable limits. The HPI results reflect a serious level of water pollution. Based on the 2015 SNI standard, the HPI scores are 214.45 for downstream, a striking 57893.41 for midstream, and 120.61 for upstream. Using the the WHO 2022 criteria, the values are 486.03 (downstream), 4.186.55 (midstream) and 267.83 (upstream). Except for the upstream based on SNI 6242:2015, all areas show high contamination levels (HPI ≥ 200), highlighting a concerning environmental issue. Mercury and cadmium, known for their high toxicity and bioaccumulation potential, were the most concerning. These findings underscore the urgent need for remediation efforts, continuous environmental monitoring, and increased public awareness to protect aquatic ecosystems and ensure the safety of water resources for surrounding communities.

Abstract

Purpose: This literature review discusses using Sungkai leaves (Peronema canescens Jack) and Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) in soap production as promising natural alternatives in the cosmetic industry. Sungkai leaves have been proven to possess antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activities, while VCO is known for its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. Method: The research method employed in this study is a literature review, which gathers, analyzes, and synthesizes information from various literature sources to present a comprehensive overview of the use of both ingredients in soap production. Results: The research results indicate that the combination of Sungkai leaves and VCO in soap provides good cleansing effects and maintains the skin's health and moisture. The practical implications of this research are the potential development of more effective and environmentally friendly soap products in the cosmetic industry. Conclusion: The combination of Sungkai leaves and VCO can serve as an effective natural soap formulation with considerable health and cosmetic benefits. Their application supports sustainable and eco-friendly practices in the personal care industry. Limitations: This study is limited to secondary data and does not involve laboratory testing or clinical trials. Variations in extraction methods and formulations among reviewed studies may affect generalizability. Contribution: This review contributes to the growing body of knowledge on natural cosmetics by providing scientific support for the development of herbal soaps. It promotes the use of local natural resources in cosmetic innovation and encourages further research and product development based on Sungkai and VCO.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the influence of poverty on maternal mortality and female life expectancy in Jambi Province in 2024. Using a quantitative approach with a descriptive and analytical research design, this study analyzed secondary data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) and the Health Office, as well as primary data through surveys and interviews. The results showed that high poverty levels significantly affect maternal and women's health. The maternal mortality rate in Jambi Province reached 200 per 100,000 live births, with higher rates found among poor families compared to better-off families. Life expectancy for women in poor areas is also lower, at around 68 years, compared to 74 years in better-off economic groups. These findings underscore the need for more effective policies to improve access to health services and quality of life among poor families.
