Abstract

Pesticides used massively in the agricultural sector would cause many poisoning and serious health problems. Organophosphate pesticides have been identified as endocrine-disrupting chemicals. This study aimed to compare thyroid hormone levels between the sprayers chronically exposed to pesticides and the control respondents who had never been exposed to pesticides. This study was an analytical observational with a cross-sectional design. The total number of respondents was 150, 50 as sprayers and 100 as control respondents. The venous blood samples were examined using the Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). The findings significantly showed that the sprayer had a higher level of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) (4.776 ± 1.1166), lower triiodothyronine (T3) (108.822 ± 18.810), and lower thyroxine (T4) (7.808 ± 1.067). Determinant factors among sprayers that significantly correlated to TSH levels was age (p-value = 0.006); work duration (p-value = 0.000); personal protection equipment (PPE) (p-value = 0.045); body position (p-value = 0.014); type of pesticides (p-value = 0.004), correlated with T3 levels was age (p-value = 0.037); body position (p-value = 0.045), correlated with T4 levels was age (p-value = 0.000); PPE (p-value = 0.045). It could be concluded that chronic organophosphate exposure would increase TSH and decrease T3 and T4.

Abstract

Hypertension is often called a silent killer disease because it does not give symptoms to the affected person. Bojonegoro Regency in East Java is one of the areas with a high rate of non-communicable diseases, reaching 385,465 people. Pekuwon Village in Bojonegoro Regency is one of many areas with high hypertension problems. An education program is needed to increase knowledge about hypertension as a disease that can come unexpectedly. The target of this education program is the people of Pekuwon Village aged 15-59 years. The hypertension education program was carried out during the Posbindu PTM activity in Pekuwon Village which was attended by 39 participants. The speaker of the education program was a village cadre who had been trained by the community service team of the Faculty of Public Health, Universitas Airlangga. The evaluation used pre-test before giving information and post-test after giving information. The results showed an increase in knowledge from 63.63% to 97.43%. These results meet the program's success indicators, namely a 30% increase in knowledge in the Pekuwon Village community.
