Abstract

Indonesia ranks fifth globally in the number of diabetes mellitus (DM) cases, with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) accounting for over 90%. In addition to its physical complications, T2DM is closely associated with psychological disorders, particularly depression, which often goes undetected despite its negative impact on disease management and its well-established bidirectional relationship. This study aims to describe the severity of depression among T2DM patients at Sorong General Hospital, Southwest Papua. A descriptive observational design with a cross-sectional approach was employed, involving 270 T2DM patients selected through purposive sampling based on specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. Depression severity was assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), a validated instrument for evaluating depressive symptoms. The results showed that 136 respondents (50.37%) did not experience depression, while 134 respondents (49.63%) exhibited varying degrees of depression. Among them, 102 respondents (37.78%) experienced mild depression, 30 (11.11%) had moderate depression, and 2 (0.74%) had severe depression. These findings indicate that nearly half of the respondents experienced depressive symptoms, with mild depression being the most prevalent category. The study underscores the importance of incorporating mental health assessments, such as routine depression screening, into diabetes care protocols. An integrated approach is essential to support improved clinical outcomes and enhance the overall well-being of T2DM patients.

Abstract

Lower back pain (LBP) is a condition where a person feels pain in the lower back, the pain felt can originate from the structures in the lower back, including joints, muscles, bones, nerves, ligaments and others. LBP sufferers can incur quite large costs in their treatment, apart from that LBP can also cause a lack of working days because of productivity limitation. Factors that can influence the occurrence of LBP are age, gender, occupation, body mass index, smoking habits and many more. The aim of this study is to determine the characteristics of LBP patients at the Sorong Regency general hospital (RSUD) in 2022. This research uses a descriptive observational design. This research took place from September to October 2023 at the Sorong Regency General Hospital. Data collection was obtained from secondary data with a sample size of 77 LBP patients from January to December 2022. The results of this study show that LBP patients at Sorong Regency General Hospital from January to December 2020 were mostly in the 46-55 age year group, totaling 26 patients (33.8%), predominantly occurred to female with 43 patients (55.8%) who worked as housewives totaling 33 patients (42.9%), Non-Papuan ethnic group category amounting to 42 patients (54.5%) and most had overweight body mass index (BMI) of 23-24.9 kg/m2 totaling 33 patients (42.9%). The conclusion is that LBP predominantly affected individuals aged 46–55 years, with a higher incidence in females, particularly housewives. Most patients belonged to the Non-Papuan ethnic group and had an overweight body mass index. These results provide an overview of the demographic and clinical profiles of LBP patients in the region, which may support better-targeted prevention and treatment strategies.
