Abstract

The social service activity held in Tlogosari Village, Donomulyo District, Malang Regency, on September 17, 2024, aims to strengthen social solidarity and food security among the local community. The program was organized by lecturers of the Institute of Science and Health Technology dr. Soepraoen Hospital Malang in collaboration with the Kartika Husada Clinic Donomulyo. The focus of the activity was to provide basic food assistance to underprivileged communities and orphans at the “Nasional Ayu” Orphanage, as well as moral support to them. In addition to providing material assistance, the lecturers also interacted directly with the community, providing motivation and support to the orphans to continue pursuing their education. This activity not only aims to ease the economic burden of the community, but also strengthens the relationship between educational institutions, healthcare facilities, and local communities. Good collaboration between academics, health workers, and the community shows a positive impact on the community's welfare through increased awareness of the importance of mutual cooperation and social care.

Abstract

Smoking is a major public health concern worldwide and is a leading cause of preventable morbidity and mortality. In Indonesia, smoking rates are among the highest globally; however, little is known about smoking behavior among older adults, particularly across rural and urban settings. This study aimed to examine the prevalence of smoking and its associated factors among older adults in Indonesia, focusing on demographic, socioeconomic, and geographic disparities. A cross-sectional analysis was conducted using data from the Indonesian Health Survey (SKI) 2023, which included 97,339 participants aged 60 years and older. A multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method was employed to ensure representativeness. Smoking behavior, cigarette consumption, and indoor smoking practices were analyzed alongside demographic variables, such as age, sex, education level, marital status, work status, and region. Descriptive statistics and chi-square tests were used, with adjustments for the complex survey design using STATA 15.1. The overall smoking prevalence was 30.98%, with a higher rate in urban areas (17.77%) than in rural areas (13.21%). Daily cigarette consumption was more common than weekly smoking, and 76.23% of smokers reported smoking indoors. Smoking was significantly associated with a lower educational level, employments status, and marital status. Urban residents showed a higher smoking prevalence and consumption pattern than rural residents. This study highlights disparities in smoking behavior among older adults in Indonesia, emphasizing the need for targeted public health interventions. Efforts should focus on reducing indoor smoking, improving access to smoking cessation programs, and addressing socioeconomic factors contributing to smoking behavior, particularly in urban areas

Abstract

Increasing age will reduce the physiological functions of the body including muscle mass. The ability to synthesize muscle protein decreases due to a reduction in the number of muscle fibers and a decrease in muscle fiber size. This results in the loss of neurons, reducing muscle strength capacity. Decreased muscle strength limits the daily activities of the elderly, such as difficulty walking, climbing stairs, and lifting weights. The purpose of this study was to determine the description of upper and lower extremity muscle strength of the elderly in Griya Asih Lawang nursing home, Malang Regency. This descriptive study used 30 populations with a sampling technique that is total sampling. The variable in this study is the strength of the upper and lower extremities of the elderly measured using Manual Muscule Testing. Univariate data analysis, then the data is presented in a frequency distribution table. This research was conducted in June 2023 at Griya Asih Lawang nursing home, Malang Regency. The results showed that more than half of the respondents as many as 18 people (60%) had moderate muscle strength in the upper extremities and less than half as many as 13 people (43.5%) had low muscle strength in the lower extremities, and less than half as many as 13 people (43.5%) also had moderate muscle strength in the lower extremities. Elderly gymnastics efforts to prevent early muscle decline. Providing the right walking aids as needed in daily activities can minimize the risk of falls.
