Abstract

The elderly are a group that is vulnerable to complications due to hypertension, such as stroke, heart failure, chronic kidney disease, and even sudden death. Hypertension or high blood pressure is one of the most common non-communicable diseases found in society and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) states that approximately 1.28 billion people worldwide suffer from hypertension, with most cases undiagnosed and not receiving adequate treatment. Hypertension counseling for the elderly aims to provide education about the causes, impacts, prevention, and treatment of high blood pressure through an easy-to-understand approach. In addition, this activity is also expected to encourage the elderly to adopt a healthy lifestyle, such as reducing salt consumption, doing light physical activity, and complying with recommended medical therapy. The activity was carried out for the elderly with a total of 17 participants at the KTK Community Health Center Polyclinic, Solok City. Lectures and question and answer discussions were used to develop knowledge about complications, hypertension factors, symptoms and signs, prevention and treatment, etc. The media used were slides and leaflets. The tools used to carry out this activity are: leaflets and a list of questions related to the extension material which will be distributed before and after the extension.

Abstract

The Padang City Environment Agency reported that the city generated an average of 643.76 tons of waste per day in 2021–2022. According to the head of RW 016, residents dispose of waste at the TPS due to limited available land. This study aims to assess the impact of education on 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) waste management in RW 016, Pagambiran Ampalu Nan XX Village, Lubuk Begalung District, Padang City, in 2023. A quantitative descriptive method was used with pretest and posttest assessments to measure knowledge levels. The paired sample t-test was employed for data analysis. The study involved 40 housewives as respondents, and data were collected through field observation and questionnaires. After data processing and analysis using frequency distribution tables, results showed a significant improvement in waste management knowledge after educational intervention. The mean score increased from 29.10 before education to 36.23 after, with a p-value of 0.000, indicating a statistically significant difference. These findings demonstrate that education positively influences 3R-based waste management behavior. To support sustainable waste practices, it is recommended that local government and village authorities provide adequate infrastructure such as segregated waste bins, recycling facilities, and environmentally friendly

Abstract

This study aims to develop a population dynamics model that supports biodiversity conservation efforts in Indonesia's tropical ecosystems. The study used a quantitative approach based on ecological modelling to develop the model. The model was validated by comparing simulation results with empirical data obtained from field surveys. The results show that factors such as population growth, mortality rates, species distribution, extinction risk, and the effects of climate change have significant impacts on the sustainability of key species, including orangutans, helmeted hornbills, clouded leopards, Sumatran tigers, and tropical corals. In addition, the results of this study can also serve as a basis for more integrated conservation policy planning, both at the national and international levels.

Abstract

Batang Ombilin River in Nagari Limo Koto, Koto VII District, Sijunjung Regency, is the main water source for the local community, used for domestic needs, agriculture, and other economic activities. However, the water quality of this river has declined due to human activities such as agriculture, settlements, and illegal gold mining (PETI). This decline in water quality has the potential to impact public health, leading to an increase in cases of skin diseases and diarrhea in the surrounding areas. This study aims to analyze the water quality of the Batang Ombilin River through testing physical and chemical parameters, including temperature, color, Total Suspended Solids (TSS), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD). Water samples were taken from three points (upstream, middle, downstream) and analyzed in the laboratory. The research results show that the parameters of temperature, TDS, BOD, and COD still meet the quality standards for Class II according to Government Regulation No. 22 of 2021. However, color and TSS parameters exceeded standard limits at some points, especially near community and mining activities. In conclusion, although the water quality remains safe for most parameters, there are indications of pollution that require further attention. Regular monitoring and public education are needed to prevent further degradation of water quality.
