Abstract

Cervical cancer is one of the most common types of cancer in women worldwide. The main cause of cervical cancer is infection with oncogenic types of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), especially types 16 and 18. Early detection through methods such as Pap smear, IVA (Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid), and HPV DNA testing is very important to identify precancerous lesions before they develop into invasive cancer. Public education about cervical cancer prevention, including HPV vaccination, routine screening, and a healthy lifestyle, is a strategic step to reduce the incidence and mortality due to this disease. This community service program aims to increase public awareness of the importance of early detection and prevention of cervical cancer through a structured educational approach. Thus, it is hoped that a community can be created that is more aware of reproductive health and is able to take preventive measures against cervical cancer. Objective: to increase public understanding and knowledge about early detection of cervical cancer and its prevention. Method: Community service is carried out by providing education to the public about early detection of cervical cancer and its prevention. Results: The activity was carried out on Sunday, February 23, 2025, at PKM Chiba, Japan. Twenty-nine people attended community service activities. Educational activities were carried out from preparation to evaluation. The materials provided included early detection and prevention of cervical cancer. Conclusion: Community service activities went smoothly. This educational activity is expected to be recommended and continued by other health workers so that it can increase mothers' confidence in early detection and prevention of cervical cancer.

Abstract

Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) among adolescent girls remains a major public health concern. This condition affects not only physical health but also psychological well-being and overall quality of life, necessitating a comprehensive study of its contributing factors and impacts. This study aimed to identify the factors contributing to CED and assess its impact on the health of adolescent girls. A quantitative design with a descriptive correlational approach was employed. Using stratified random sampling by grade level, 184 respondents were selected using Slovin's formula. Data were collected via standardized questionnaires, Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) measurements, and hemoglobin examinations. Data analysis used Pearson's Correlation and multiple linear regression. The prevalence of CED among adolescent girls was 60.9%. Significant factors associated with CED included knowledge, nutritional intake (energy, carbohydrates, protein, fat), sleep quality, stress, and family support (p < 0.05), which collectively accounted for 77% of the variance in CED incidence. Conversely, body image showed no significant association. Regarding health impacts, CED was significantly correlated only with self-efficacy (r = -0.270; p < 0.001); hemoglobin levels, menstrual cycles, and academic performance showed no significant associations. Nutrition education programs are needed to improve balanced dietary intake. Furthermore, strengthening the roles of families and schools is recommended to support the prevention and management of CED among adolescent girls.
