Abstract

Background : Stunting remains one of the major public health issues in Indonesia, particularly among children under five. The decline in stunting prevalence nationally shows a positive trend, but challenges remain at the regional level, including in East Kalimantan. Objective : This study aims to analyze trends in stunting prevalence and its determinants in East Kalimantan, using data from the 2024 Indonesian Nutritional Status Survey (SSGI), to inform regional policy interventions. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : The method used is a descriptive, quantitative approach with a comparative analysis of national data Results : The results indicate that all districts/cities in East Kalimantan reported stunting prevalence rates above the national average in 2024, except for Kutai Kartanegara. Factors such as the high incidence of closely spaced pregnancies, low participation in prenatal classes, the proportion of babies born with low birth weight and short birth length (LBW and SBL), the quality of complementary feeding (MPASI), low consumption of iron tablets among pregnant women, limited coverage of vitamin A supplementation, low public awareness about stunting, suboptimal performance of family assistance teams, adequate sanitation and drinking water are believed to contribute to the high prevalence in East Kalimantan. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : These findings underscore the importance of sustainable, specific, and sensitive nutrition interventions, as well as a multisectoral approach involving families and communities. This study is expected to serve as a reference for local governments in developing evidence-based policies to accelerate stunting reduction in East Kalimantan.

Abstract

Temporary Waste Storage Sites (TPS) are potential breeding grounds for house flies (Musca domestica) due to the accumulation of organic waste and inadequate sanitation conditions. High fly density may increase environmental health risks because flies act as mechanical vectors of various pathogenic microorganisms. This study aimed to analyze fly density and microclimatic conditions, including temperature and humidity, at TPS locations in Samarinda City. A quantitative analytical study with a cross-sectional design was conducted in March 2026 at eight active TPS locations selected purposively. Fly density was measured using the fly grill method according to the Indonesian Ministry of Health guidelines, while temperature and humidity were recorded using a hygrometer. The results showed that the average fly density index ranged from 7.8 to 40.2 flies per fly grill, indicating high to very high density levels at all observation sites. The highest density was observed at TPS Gang Ayu (40.2 flies/fly grill), while the lowest was found at TPS Kontainer Statis Air Putih (7.8 flies/fly grill). Environmental conditions showed temperatures ranging from 27.8°C to 35.9°C and humidity levels between 48% and 70%, which are favorable for fly survival and reproduction. However, fly density variations were not solely influenced by microclimatic factors but were also associated with waste volume, waste accumulation duration, transportation frequency, and sanitation conditions. In conclusion, fly density at TPS in Samarinda City remains high and poses potential environmental health risks. Improved waste management, routine sanitation measures, and continuous fly density monitoring are recommended to reduce vector populations and minimize disease transmission risks.
