Abstract

Fly density is a critical indicator of environmental sanitation quality and potential risk of disease transmission in port environments. This study assessed fly density levels, temperature, and humidity in port areas of the Banyuwangi Regency to understand vector distribution patterns and inform disease prevention strategies. A quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted at three port locations in Banyuwangi: Ketapang Port, Tanjung Wangi Port (perimeter area), and landing craft machine ports (buffer areas). Fly density was measured via the fly grill method, according to the Indonesian Ministry of Health guidelines. The temperature and humidity measurements were recorded simultaneously at each location. The Kruskal‒Wallis test was used to compare fly density levels between locations. The mean fly densities at waste disposal sites in Ketapang Port, food stalls in Tanjung Wangi Port, and the open dumping area at LCM Port were 9, 9, and 2 flies per block grill, respectively. The average temperatures at the three locations ranged from 29.76°C to 35.53°C, with humidity levels between 62.82% and 77.35%. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences in fly density among the three locations (p<0.05), with the highest mean ranks observed at food stalls in Tanjung Wangi Port.  The perimeter areas presented high fly density levels that pose substantial public health risks, whereas the buffer area maintained an acceptable fly density. The environmental conditions recorded at all the sites provided optimal breeding conditions for the disease vectors. The implementation of targeted waste management strategies and environmental sanitation interventions is necessary at perimeter locations to mitigate disease transmission risk and protect public health in these transportation hubs.

Abstract

Stunting is a vital health issue in developing Asian countries, where millions of individuals suffer from chronic malnutrition. Stunting not only is caused by chronic malnutrition but is also influenced by inadequate water supply, sanitation problems, and poor hygiene practices in the community. However, research on water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) and its association with stunting is limited, particularly in developing countries. This study aimed to analyze the associations between water, sanitation, and hygiene practices and the occurrence of stunting in Asia. This article is a systematic literature review using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. A total of 1,002 articles were reviewed, of which 560 were published. Additionally, articles could be selected and dropped because they had no original research. After duplicate articles were removed, 168 articles were removed. The screening and extraction results revealed 14 articles eligible for review. After the article was reviewed and read, only five articles were eligible, and only 5 articles could be reviewed because the article discussed WASH and stunting in developing countries in Asia. Inadequate WASH practices were strongly associated with stunting among children under five years of age. An insufficient water supply and access to safe drinking water contribute to this condition, as inadequate water availability can increase the risk of stunting. Additionally, groundwater unfit for consumption increases the likelihood of undernutrition, including stunting, underweight, and wasting in children. Access to improved drinking water sources is essential for reducing stunting, as households with such access report lower stunting rates. Solutions to address stunting in children under five years of age include enhancing drinking water sources, improving sanitation facilities, and promoting better hygiene practices. Local governments should provide adequate water provision and accessible drinking water.
