Abstract

Public Health Centers (Puskesmas) as primary healthcare facilities play a crucial role in promotive and preventive efforts against non-communicable diseases (NCDs), including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and high cholesterol. The Integrated Primary Services Program (ILP) implemented at Bontang Selatan I Health Center aims to raise community awareness of the importance of regular health check-ups. This initiative involves posyandu cadres, healthcare workers, and university students in conducting screenings for blood pressure, blood glucose, and cholesterol levels at two community health posts: Berseri 1 and Kasih Ibu 2. The results indicate a higher prevalence of hypertension, hyperglycemia, and hypercholesterolemia among the elderly at Berseri 1, likely due to poor dietary habits rich in sugar, salt, and fat. In contrast, more stable health profiles were observed at Kasih Ibu 2, which had a predominance of younger, more health-conscious participants. Direct health education following the screenings proved effective in increasing awareness of NCD risks. This program aligns with government efforts to control NCDs through community-based approaches at Puskesmas and Posyandu. Strengthening health education, routine monitoring, and cadre training is essential to improve the program's effectiveness

Abstract

Community service aims to improve adolescent knowledge with the peer educator method at SMP Negeri 2 Samarinda. The technique used is classroom action research with a cross-sectional approach. The supporting partners for this service are the principal, teachers, and 53 students. The instrument used is a questionnaire given as a pre-test and post-test before and after being given nutrition education with a total of 20 multiple-choice questions about balanced nutrition knowledge. This community service was carried out in June-August 2024. To see the difference in knowledge scores before and after being given nutrition education, the Paired Sample T-Test was used. The results of the study showed that there was a significant difference (p = 0.001) in knowledge scores before and after being given balanced nutrition education. The results showed an increase in the average knowledge from 54.62 ± 15.65 to 76.98 ± 5.40 with a difference of 22.36 ± 14.19. This shows that nutrition education training with the peer educator method is effective in improving student knowledge at SMP Negeri 2 Samarinda.

Abstract

Background : Stunting remains a significant chronic nutritional problem in Indonesia, particularly among children born to adolescent mothers. These young mothers often face limitations in nutritional knowledge, lower health literacy, and suboptimal reproductive preparedness, which collectively increase the risk of stunting in their children. Objective : This study aimed to conduct a review to determine the association between adolescent mothers’ nutritional knowledge and the incidence of stunting in toddlers, and to identify the contributing factors. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : This was a systematic review conducting following the PRISMA guidelines and utilizing the Population, Concept, and Context (PCC) framework. Articles were collected through searching the Scopus, PubMed, Google Scholar, and Crossref databases for studies up to October 2025. Two reviewers independently screened and included full- text article that examined Mothers Knowledge and stunting, focusing on the concept of knowledge, adolescent mother, and stunting. Results : A review included five articles. Adolescent mothers’ knowledge had a significant association with the incidence of stunting. This association was often strengthened by confounding factors such as socio-economic status, low education levels, limited access to healthcare services, and inadequate childcare practices. Several studies found that improving maternal nutritional literacy and initiating early prenatal care can effectively reduce the risk of stunting in children. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : Low nutritional knowledge among adolescent mothers is confirmed as an important determinant of stunting in toddlers. Intervention efforts need to be focused on enhancing the education and nutritional literacy of adolescent girls through structured programs, including school-based education, adolescent mother classes in community health centers (Puskesmas), and targeted community campaigns. The integrated approach is crucial to break the intergenerational cycle of stunting and foster the development of quality human resources.

Abstract

Background : The coronavirus disease pandemic of 2019 (Covid-19) continues to be a serious worldwide health issue. The virus quickly spread to other nations after the first case was discovered in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China in the afternoon of 2019. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization proclaimed COVID-19 a global epidemic.. 1 Covid report in Indonesia Indonesia ranks 64th compared to countries in the world, until December 2022 showing 6,719,815 cases.2 The daily report of Covid-19 in districts and cities in Central Sulawesi Province on April 7, 2021, the total number of positive confirmed cases was 11,424 cases. As of September 9, 2022, the number of confirmed positive cases of Covid- 19 in Donggala Regency reached 2,678 people, 77 cases of death due to Covid-19.3 Favipiravir is advised as a treatment for COVID-19 patients with mild to serious symptoms by the Indonesian Medical Association. 1 Favipiravir has an emergency use authorization (EUA) from the Indonesian National Food and Drug Administration for hospitalized patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 signs and symptoms. 4 Early COVID- 19 antiviral trials conducted in China documented the administration of 1,600 mg of oral favipiravir twice daily on the first day, and then another 1,600 mg of oral favipiravir twice daily after that. In contrast to the Thai trial, which found that favipiravir was not more successful in treating severe Covid-19 sufferers, 600 mg twice daily produced superior results. 56 There are still many other studies that discuss this treatment regarding the effectiveness of Favipiravir against COVID-19, but this is still a debate because it still raises pros and cons. In Indonesia and especially in Central Sulawesi, data on the effectiveness of using favipiravir in COVID-19 patients is still limited. Objective : This study aims to evaluate the effect of giving favipiravir antiviral drugs to COVID-19 patients on the recovery of patients treated at Pendau Tambu Hospital in 2021-2022. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : This study is cross-sectional in nature and employs a cross-sectional design with retrospective data and an analytical observational methodology. The medical records of COVID-19 patients who were admitted to Pendau Tambu General Hospital between June 2021 and March 2022 provided the secondary data for this investigation. In order to meet the sample size requirement of 57 samples, the study's sample selection strategy involved enrolling all patients who satisfied the inclusion criteria. Adult patients who are at least eighteen years old and hospitalized COVID-19 patients receiving favipirafir therapy meet the inclusion criteria. antiviral medication during therapy, and the medical record data was incomplete. Results : A total of 57 patients who met the criteria, patient characteristics (table1) most of the patients were under 60 years of age, gender was generally the same in men and women, most did not have high blood pressure and did not have comorbidities, and the final condition of discharge patients generally recovered. The results of the chi square test found the value of 2 cells (50%) Expectation is less than 5 so it cannot test with chi aquare, and the data is statistically tested using fisher's exact test. Based on Table 2, it can be seen that all characteristics of the research subjects have no relationship

Abstract

Moringa oleifera, rich in iron and calcium, is a potential ingredient for fortifying dumpling skins to improve their nutritional value for adults. This study aimed to evaluate the iron and calcium content of Moringa-fortified dumpling skins and assess their acceptability among consumers. This study aimed to determine the iron and calcium content of dumpling skins fortified with Moringa oleifera and to assess their acceptability among consumers. Moringa can contribute to combating malnutrition and promoting health in Indonesia. Moringa, recognized by WHO for its nutritional value, is a rich source of calcium, iron, protein, and vitamins. These nutrients are crucial for bone health, oxygen transport, and overall well-being. A completely randomized design with four treatments and three replications was applied. Organoleptic acceptability tests were conducted with 20 panelists using a self-administered questionnaire. Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests were employed to compare aroma, texture, color, and taste across treatments. The Kruskal-Wallis analysis showed no significant differences (p>0.05) in aroma and texture among the formulations. However, significant differences were found in color and taste (p>0.05). The MannWhitney test showed no significant differences (p> 0.05) between the 50% and 75% Moringa formulations in color and taste. Dumplings fortified with Moringa exhibited increased iron and calcium content compared to the controls, confirming the nutritional enhancement due to Moringa addition.

Abstract

Background : Nutritional status and oral health are crucial aspects that influence the quality of life in adolescents. Body Mass Index (BMI) is often used as an indicator of nutritional status, while oral health status can be measured by the DMF index (Decayed, Missing, Filled). Objective : This study aimed to analyze the association between BMI and oral health among Balikpapan junior high school students. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : This study used a cross-sectional design with a sample of 183 students from 7th and 9th grades in a junior high school. Statistical analysis utilized the Pearson correlation test to assess the association between BMI and DMF-T. Results : The results showed a statistically significant correlation between BMI and DMF scores (p = 0.039), indicating that variations in nutritional status might be associated with oral health conditions. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : Although there is a significant difference in BMI across certain nutritional categories, BMI is not directly associated with students' oral health. This study highlights the importance of school-based nutritional monitoring programs and oral health education to enhance the overall health of adolescents.
