Abstract

Studies evidence links air pollution to increased risk of COVID-19 infection and severity during the pandemic. Nonetheless, those studies are unable to discuss specific pollutants, such as particulate matter, Sox, and NOx. This systematic literature review aimed to summarize the most recent studies on the links between pollutants and their effects on the respiratory system, in this case, mostly on COVID-19 patients. We searched using electronic databases (PubMed, Springer, ScienceDirect, and Sage) in May 2023. The keywords chosen were connected to respiratory diseases and air pollution. All relevant studies published in peer-reviewed journals between 2020 and 2023 and written in English were considered. We excluded letters and non-original articles. Relevant keywords were used to select papers. A total of 11 articles are eligible to be included in the present review study. It was reported that countries with a high prevalence of COVID-19 also have greater concentrations of surface air particles (PM10 and PM2.5) due to vehicle exhaust and industrial pollution. PM-virus aggregates spread easier across the lungs and the top respiratory system, facilitating viral attachment to the lung epithelium. This study found that tiny particles with an aerodynamic dimension fewer than 2.5 μm (PM2.5) or ten μm (PM10) have the most significant potential influence on the respiratory system compared to other pollutants.

Abstract

Background: prevalence of hypertension worldwide reaches more than 1.3 billion people (31%) The prevalence of hypertension in Indonesia is 34.1%. This is an increase compared to the prevalence of hypertension in Riskesdas in 2013 of 25.8%. This study aims to determine the relationship between knowledge and attitudes with hypertension prevention behavior in adolescents. Methods: This research used type of descriptive quantitative research with a cross sectional approach. The number of samples used was 384 adolescent respondents in the Sidorejo Health Center were using nonprobability sampling technique, namely accidental sampling. The research instrument used a questionnaire to adolescent respondents and for data analysis using univariate and bivariate analysis. Results: Knowledge about hypertension prevention is still lacking, attitudes towards hypertension prevention are mostly supportive and hypertension prevention behavior is categorized as good. The results showed that there was no relationship between adolescent knowledge and hypertension prevention practices, and there was a relationship between attitudes and hypertension prevention practices in adolescents. Conclusion: There is no relationship between knowledge and hypertension prevention practices, there is a relationship between attitude and hypertension prevention practices in adolescents. Efforts are needed to improve adolescents' attitudes towards hypertension, so as to support the practice of hypertension prevention.

Abstract

Stroke is a serious disease that occurs when blood flow to the brain is disrupted, either due to a blockage in the blood vessels (ischemic stroke) or a rupture of the blood vessels (hemorrhagic stroke). This condition can cause brain cell death in a short period of time and is at risk of causing permanent disability. This study aims to analyze the factors associated with the occurrence of stroke in hypertensive patients at RSU William Booth Semarang. This research is a quantitative study with a nested case-control design, using electronic medical record data from RSU William Booth Semarang in 2023. The variables in this study are age, gender, blood sugar levels, total cholesterol levels, triglyceride levels, HDL levels, LDL levels, uric acid levels, and a history of heart disease. The analysis used includes univariate analysis, bivariate analysis with chi-square test. The variables that are statistically significant are age (p=0.005), gender (p=0.021), random blood sugar levels (p=0.010), total cholesterol levels (p=0.009), triglyceride levels (p=0.034), HDL blood levels (p=0.049), LDL blood levels (p=0.034), and history of heart disease (p=0.023). The conclusion of this study is that early detection and management of risk factors, especially blood pressure control and cholesterol levels, are very important in preventing stroke. Educating the public about healthy lifestyles can also help reduce the incidence of strokes in the future.
