Abstract

Introduction: Indonesia is the third largest country that carries out female circumcision. As many as 51.2% of girls aged 0-11 years have undergone female circumcision. Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) or female circumcision is a dangerous traditional practice that still occurs in Indonesia, which has caused pros and cons among the community even though, based on scientific studies, female circumcision has been proven to have no health benefits. Female circumcision has even been banned by law and opposed by international health organizations. Objective: The study aims to identify factors influencing female circumcision in Indonesia, focusing on the Social Determinant and Health theory. Method: This study is a systematic review that collects several studies according to the PRISMA guidelines. Using relevant keywords, studies were obtained from various databases, such as Garuda, Google Scholar, and Semantic Scholar. Studies were collected from June to July 2024. Result: From 2.254 articles found, ten articles were selected for further analysis. Factors such as maternal age, maternal education, knowledge, culture/tradition, beliefs, family support, and sources of information also influence the practice of circumcision in female children. Conclusion: Female circumcision is a dangerous traditional practice that is still carried out today due to the culture and beliefs of the local community, which are still strong and believe that female circumcision must be carried out on their daughters.

Abstract

Background: The Minimum Initial Service Package (MISP) was developed as a guideline for implementing reproductive health services in disaster situations. However, there have not been many studies that comprehensively assess the implementation of all components of the MISP in disaster situations. This study provides an overview and evaluates the implementation of the eight components of the MISP in various countries. Methods: This research was a systematic review that gathered several studies using the PRISMA flow. Using relevant keywords, the researcher obtained studies from PubMed, Science Direct, and Scopus databases. Studies were collected from April to June 2024. Results: The findings of this research highlight the importance of strengthening coordination, communication, training, advocacy, comprehensive implementation strategies, and targeted interventions to maximize the effectiveness of the MISP in disaster response efforts. Our research offers a robust empirical basis to reformulate MISP policies, directly contributing to greater investment in healthcare, with a particular focus on emergency response. Conclusion: In conclusion, our study contributes to the understanding of reproductive sexual and health issues in disaster setting by evaluating the implementation of the Minimum Initial Service Package (MISP). This research provides insights into the implementation of MISP in various disaster context across different countries. Future studies should focus on evaluating the effectiveness of the MISP to further advance knowledge in the field of international health.

Abstract

Diabetes Melitus merupakan Penyakit Tidak Menular (PTM) yang menjadi isu kesehatan global. Saat ini, terjadi peningkatan kasus Diabetes Melitus pada anak-anak hingga 70 kali lipat hingga Januari 2023. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat hasil intervensi yang diberikan kepada anak Sekolah Dasar melalui media video dan poster di 2 SD, yaitu SDN Petompon 2 dan SDN Sekaran 1. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kuantitatif yang menggunakan pendekatan quasi eksperimen dengan desain control group pretest dan posttest untuk mengetahui efektivitas media promosi kesehatan terhadap pengetahuan, sikap, dan perilaku pencegahan diabetes pada anak. Uji yang digunakan adalah Uji Wilcoxon untuk melihat efektivitas media yang digunakan. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada Bulan Agustus-September 2023. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat peningkatan yang signifikan terhadap pengetahuan responden, namun tidak menghasilkan peningkatan yang signifikan pada variabel sikap dan perilaku. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa media video dan poster efektif dalam meningkatkan pengetahuan responden, sedangkan variabel sikap dan perilaku membutuhkan waktu serta media pendukung lain untuk meningkatkan sikap dan perilaku pencegahan Diabetes Melitus pada Siswa Sekolah Dasar. Diabetes Mellitus is a Non-Communicable Disease (NCD) that has become a global health issue. Currently, there is an increase in cases of Diabetes Mellitus in Children up to 70 times until January 2023. This study intended to see the results of interventions given to elementary school children through video and poster media in two elementary schools, namely SDN Petompon 2 and SDN Sekaran 1. This quantitative research study uses a quasi-experimental approach with a control group pre-test and post-test design to determine the effectiveness of health promotion media on knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of diabetes prevention in children. This research was conducted in August-September 2023. The results showed a significant increase in respondents knowledge but did not produce a significant increase in attitude and behavior variables. It can be concluded that video and poster media are effective in increasing respondents’ knowledge, while attitude and behavior variables require time and other supporting media to improve attitudes and behaviors to prevent Diabetes Mellitus in Children.

Abstract

                                                                          ABSTRAK       Masalah kesehatan pada kelompok remaja di komunitas lokal merupakan isu strategis yang perlu mendapatkan perhatian khusus, terutama karena adanya kecenderungan perilaku berisiko yang dapat berdampak negatif terhadap kualitas hidup dan masa depan mereka. Hasil asesmen menunjukkan masih rendahnya penerapan perilaku hidup bersih dan sehat, serta kecenderungan melakukan perilaku berisiko seperti merokok, konsumsi minuman beralkohol, dan hubungan seksual pranikah. Kegiatan pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk memberdayakan komunitas lokal melalui peningkatan kapasitas pendidik sebaya (peer educator) sebagai agen perubahan dalam komunitas, dengan menggunakan pendekatan Participatory Empowerment. Program ini dilaksanakan melalui beberapa tahapan, yaitu analisis situasi, advokasi, pelatihan pendidik sebaya, serta implementasi posyandu remaja. Selain itu, dilaksanakan kegiatan posyandu remaja sebagai wadah berkelanjutan dalam penyebaran informasi kesehatan. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pemahaman remaja terhadap isu-isu kesehatan, terbentuknya forum komunikasi yang aktif, serta meningkatnya akses terhadap informasi dan layanan kesehatan. Dengan demikian, pendekatan pemberdayaan partisipatif melalui penguatan kapasitas peer educator terbukti menjadi strategi efektif dalam mendukung upaya promotif dan preventif kesehatan di komunitas lokal.ABSTRACTAdolescent health issues in local communities represent a strategic concern that requires special attention, particularly due to the tendency toward risky behaviors that can negatively affect their quality of life and future. Assessment results revealed a low level of implementation of clean and healthy living behaviors, as well as a tendency to engage in risky behaviors such as smoking, alcohol consumption, and premarital sexual activity. This community engagement program aims to empower local communities by strengthening the capacity of peer educators as agents of change through a Participatory Empowerment approach. The program was implemented in several stages, including situation analysis, advocacy, peer educator training, and the establishment of adolescent health posts (posyandu remaja). In addition, a youth communication forum was formed as a sustainable platform for disseminating health information. The results showed an increase in adolescents’ understanding of health issues, the formation of an active communication forum, and improved access to health information and services. Thus, the participatory empowerment approach through strengthening peer educator capacity has proven to be an effective strategy in supporting health promotion and prevention efforts in local communities.

Abstract

The adoption of digital health portals represents a major shift toward patient-centered care. These portals empower patients by improving access to health information and facilitating communication with providers. This review synthesizes evidence on how portals influence empowerment, with emphasis on digital literacy and health outcomes. Findings show that patients with strong digital skills actively use portals, achieve better chronic disease management, and report higher satisfaction. Quantitative evidence includes a 0.5% reduction in HbA1c and improved blood pressure regulation among users. However, vulnerable populations face persistent barriers such as limited literacy, low socioeconomic status, and inadequate infrastructure. Systemic obstacles like interoperability issues and provider workload also limit portal effectiveness. Policy strategies should focus on digital literacy education, universal internet access, and strong privacy protections to ensure equitable benefits. Future research must adopt longitudinal and inclusive approaches to strengthen evidence and guide equitable implementation

Abstract

The Minimum Initial Service Package Readiness Assessment (MRA) was a comprehensive tool used to evaluate a region’s preparedness in delivering priority reproductive health services during emergencies, as outlined in the MISP. In Indonesia, the MRA had only been implemented in four provinces, including Central Java. This study was the first research conducted in Magelang Regency. It aimed to describe the implementation of the Minimum Initial Service Package (MISP) for reproductive health during the Mount Merapi eruption disaster in Magelang Regency. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed, involving 10 informants from government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and evacuation site managers. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and document review, with data validity ensured through triangulation of techniques and data sources. The data analysis included data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicated that MISP implementation in Magelang Regency during the Mount Merapi eruption disaster remained suboptimal, particularly due to the absence of a dedicated reproductive health sub-cluster. Despite good coordination among government agencies, awareness and understanding of MISP among policymakers remained limited. Village midwives played a crucial role in health service provision at evacuation sites. However, socio-cultural constructs that perceived reproductive health issues during disasters as sensitive posed significant challenges.
