Abstract

Introduction: Stroke is a major cause of illness and death in Indonesia. Understanding its risk factors is essential for effective prevention. This study aimed to identify risk factors associated with stroke incidence in Indonesia. Methods: This study utilized a literature review approach and analyzed data from national health surveys from year of 2007, 2013, and 2018 and data from Indonesian health profile from year of 2023. The stroke risk factors and sociodemographic variables were examined descriptively to identify regional trends and urban-rural disparities. Additionally, bivariate analysis was conducted using Chi-square test to assess relationships between stroke incidence and various risk factors. Results: Stroke cases increased from 2007 to 2018 but decreased in 2023. In contrast, diabetes mellitus prevalence increased in 2023, suggesting no direct correlation with the observed decrease in stroke cases (p-value > 0.050). Conclusion: The findings underscore the necessity of targeted public health interventions to decrease stroke incidence in Indonesia through early detection, lifestyle modifications, and enhanced awareness at both individual and community levels. The outcomes of this review offered a basis for subsequent public health research and strategies focused on decreasing the incidence of stroke in Indonesia.

Abstract

High-risk pregnancy is a condition that can negatively impact the health of both the mother and the fetus. Social and demographic factors such as maternal age, educational level, economic status, employment, and place of residence contribute to pregnancy risk levels. Indonesia continues to experience a high maternal mortality rate (MMR), necessitating an in-depth analysis of the social determinants affecting high-risk pregnancies. This study employs a cross-sectional design and utilizes secondary data from the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey (SKI). The study sample consists of 46,699 pregnant women from 38 provinces across Indonesia. The independent variables include maternal age, education, employment, economic status, and place of residence, while the dependent variable is high-risk pregnancy. Data analysis was conducted using the chi-square test to identify associations between social determinants and pregnancy risk. The findings indicate that 15.4% of pregnant women experience risk factors in their pregnancy. Significant social factors associated with high-risk pregnancy include maternal age, education level, employment, place of residence, and economic status (p < 0.05). Adolescent mothers (aged 10–19 years) and older mothers (>35 years) are at higher risk. Women with low education levels, unemployment, and lower economic status are also more vulnerable to high-risk pregnancies. High-risk pregnancy is influenced by various social and demographic factors. Therefore, inclusive health policies are needed to improve maternal healthcare access, especially for high-risk groups. Health education programs on reproductive health and increased access to prenatal healthcare services can help reduce the prevalence of high-risk pregnancies in Indonesia.
