Abstract

Background: Low back pain (LBP) is the most common musculoskeletal complaint and the largest contributor to the burden of disability in the world. One of the risk factors for LBP is having a higher body mass index (BMI). Although the relationship between BMI and LBP in the age group susceptible to LBP has been widely studied, the relationship in the young adult age group is still under-researched. Meanwhile, several studies report that lifestyle changes that occur during the COVID-19 pandemic might lead to an increasing number of overweight obese sufferers, including in the young adult age group. Given the context, this research aims to determine the relationship between BMI and LBP in UPH Medical Faculty (FK UPH) students during the COVID-19 pandemic.Method: A cross-sectional method of unpaired categorical comparative analytical study design was conducted with a population of 414 medical students. Data were collected by an online survey of BMI measurement and the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS Statistics with Chi-squared or Fischer's exact method.Result: The study involved a sample of 372 people with 188 people (50.5%) being LBP sufferers. Most of the sample belongs to the category of BMI < 23 kg/m2, which is 215 people (57.8%).Conclusion: The result from this research concludes that there is no significant relationship between BMI and LBP in FK UPH students during the COVID-19 pandemic (P = 0.420); significant relationships were found between LBP with gender (P = <0.001) and smoking habit (P = 0.022).

Abstract

Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) a global pandemic. This also has an impact on students' lives. Most of the students have been in a stressful condition due to changes in the online teaching and learning process as an adaptation to COVID-19. Although it has been reported that emotional intelligence can reduce stress, there are still a few studies that study about the relationship between the two during the COVID-19 pandemic, especially among medical students.Methods: A cross-sectional using comparative numerical analysis was conducted with 305 medical students. Data were collected by an online survey using Emotional Intelligence Appraisal (EIA) questionnaire, and Medical Student Stressor Questionnaire (MSSQ). Statistical analysis was done using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25.Results: The EIA questionnaire showed that there were 1.3% low EI groups, 38.7% normal EI groups, and 60.0% high EI groups. The MSSQ questionnaire showed that there was 24% mild stress, 49% moderate stress, 26% severe stress, and 1% very severe stress. Normal data distribution was obtained through the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, so that the T-test could be used with a 95% confidence degree (p-value <0.05). T-test analysis in the high EI group with an average stress (1.76±0.64) and the normal EI group with an average stress (1.40±0.75) showed a significant difference with p-value = 0.008.Conclusion: In accordance with the hypothesis in this study, during the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a significant relationship between high emotional intelligence and stress in UPH Medical Faculty students.

Abstract

Background: World Health Organization (WHO) published a dengue guideline in 2009 and in 2011 by WHO-SEARO. However, many of dengue cases in early phase do not meet all the criteria by WHO classification. Because of this condition there is a scoring model that was published in 2015, that might help in primary health care. Therefore, a study to compare those diagnostic tools especially in adult dengue patients in Banten is needed.Aims: This study is to know the comparison between 2009 version and 2011 version of dengue diagnostic guidelines by WHO and scoring model version.Methods and Material: This study used a descriptive method with a cross-sectional design at 60 adult dengue patients. Each patient is grouped according to diagnostic tools’ classification and will be analyzed using Chi-square.Results: Results are grouped according to the WHO diagnosis from 2009 and 2011, presumptive model and probable models where there are 46 (77%), 48 (78%), 31(52%), and 15 (25%) of patients diagnosed with dengue infection. Overall, the diagnosis made by the 2009 WHO and the probable models has the most superior sensitivity and specificity values of 84,6% and 25%, and 82,4% and 97,7% respectively compared to other diagnostic tools. However, from the results of positive predictive values, probable models have a higher percentage than the 2009 WHO diagnosis.Conclusions: The probable model is more sensitive and specific than other diagnostic results. These conclude that probable model is best tool for dengue infection screening in early phase of infection.

Abstract

Introduction: Mental health is a crucial concern globally and in Indonesia, especially among medical students who face higher rates of depression than the general population due to academic pressure, high expectations, and social stress. Depression can negatively affect academic performance and future careers. Studies show varying results regarding depression levels between early and end preclinical students. Purpose: This study aims to compare the level of depression in early to end preclinical students at Pelita Harapan University and to see whether there is a relationship between gender and social support and the level of depression. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 333 preclinical students from the Faculty of Medicine, Pelita Harapan University, in January-March 2024. The data was collected using the Beck Depression Inventory-II and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support Questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 26 (chi-square statistical test). Results: The study found no statistically significant difference in depression levels between early and end preclinical students (p-value 0.348). There is a relationship between social support and the level of depression in preclinical students of the UPH Medical Faculty, with a (p-value of 0.001). However, no significant relationship was found between gender and the level of depression in preclinical students, with a p-value of 0.093. Conclusion: Conducted outside major metropolitan areas like Jakarta, the study offers insights into how depression manifests in different geographic and socio-economic contexts. The findings can be used as a consideration for making a faculty or university policy to improve mental health management for medical students, ensuring an effective learning process.
