Abstract

Implementation Of A Mass Circumcision Program As An Effort To Improve Children’s Reproductive Health In Cipare District. Mass circumcision is a promotive and preventive intervention that plays an important role in maintaining boys’ health, particularly in relation to reproductive health. Limited access to healthcare services and socioeconomic factors in certain regions contribute to the low coverage of early-age circumcision, thereby increasing the risk of conditions such as phimosis, balanitis, and urinary tract infections. This community service activity aimed to improve children’s health through the implementation of a mass circumcision program in Cipare District, Serang City, Banten Province. The activity involved 23 boys aged 3–8 years, with the majority of participants in the 6–8-year age group. The implementation included initial health screening, parental education, circumcision procedures performed by medical personnel, and post-procedure monitoring. The results showed that all procedures were carried out safely and effectively without serious complications. Several medical indications were identified among participants, including phimosis, balanitis, and a history of urinary tract infections. This program provided direct benefits in preventing children’s health problems and increasing parental awareness of the importance of early reproductive health. It has the potential to serve as a sustainable promotive and preventive strategy to improve children’s health status at the community level.

Abstract

Blood pressure and anthropometry are among the examinations that can be performed in primary care and are mandatory examinations during ANC. The maternal mortality rate (MMR) in Indonesia remains high at 189 per 100,000 live births. In 2024, the MMR in Banten province will be 163 deaths per 100,000 live births, making it a priority to reduce maternal mortality in Indonesia. Approximately 14% of the cause of mortality in pregnancy is eclampsia, which is a complication of high blood pressure. This community service activity in the Kasemen area, Serang, aims to detect blood pressure, weight, and height in pregnant and breastfeeding women. The incidence of hypertension remains high, and excess weight is a dominant figure in pregnant and breastfeeding women. Education on blood pressure and excess weight control, as well as the potential impacts, especially complications of hypertension, in pregnant women should be a priority in this activity, especially during ANC visits.

Abstract

Indonesia is one of the countries in the Southeast Asian region that contributes the largest malaria cases after India. In 2022, there has been the highest increase in cases in the last 3 years. Various molecular findings and malaria genomization projects are now increasingly being researched in a number of research centers around the world. However, only a few systematic reviews are available regarding malaria in Indonesia. This article aims to explore the latest update of malaria pathogenesis, so that it is expected to be a reference in establishing proper diagnosis and deciding on therapy, as well as contributing to the development of tropical infection science in Indonesia. As one of parasite causing Malaria, P. falciparum has ability to carry out an unlimited antigen variation by altering gene expression on the surface of infected red blood cells. When infected, the morphology of red blood cells changes significantly compared to uninfected ones. One indicator of the severity of malaria is a significant reduction in the flexibility of red blood cells. Plasmodium products trigger host release of a number of cytokines that aggravate clinical manifestations. For this reason, treatment with anti-cytokines is thought to be able to overcome the clinical manifestations of severe malaria. Malaria toxin is an immunogen produced by parasites. This toxin will induce the host so that it releases molecules bound to the serum. The Pf155 antigen, also called ring-stage erythrocyte surface antigen (RESA), can also trigger TNF-. Thrombospondin, CD36, ICAM-1, and VCAM-1 which are receptors located on infected erythrocytes. The degree of parasitemia may change over time in malaria infection. Repeated infections followed by the appearance of other antigens are a way for plasmodium to trick the immune system.

Abstract

Gastric perforation is caused by damage to the gastric mucosa, leading to peritonitis and requiring emergency surgery. This study aims to determine the relationship between the duration of sudden abdominal pain complaints and the timing of surgical intervention with mortality in patients with gastric perforation at RSUD Banten. The research method used analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design involving 110 patients selected through consecutive sampling. Data were obtained from patient medical records from January to December 2023. The result showed the mortality rate of patients with gastric perforation was 16.4%. Bivariate analysis indicated no significant association between the duration of sudden abdominal pain complaints until surgery (p=0.463) and intraoperative systolic blood pressure (p=0.187) with mortality. However, there was a significant relationship between patient age (p=0.004) and comorbidities (p=0.030) with mortality, where patients aged ≥60 years and those with comorbidities such as heart disease had a higher risk of death. This study highlights the importance of comorbidity management and special attention to elderly patients in order to reduce mortality in cases of gastric perforation.

Abstract

Medical students experience substantial academic demands that increase their risk of developing academic-related stress (ARS). Caffeine is commonly consumed to improve alertness and academic performance, yet excessive intake may adversely affect sleep quality and psychological well-being. This study aimed to examine the associations between caffeine consumption, sleep quality, and academic-related stress among medical students. A cross-sectional analytic study was conducted among 139 medical students. Caffeine intake was assessed using a modified Caffeine Consumption Questionnaire (CCQ), sleep quality was evaluated using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and academic-related stress was measured using the Academic Related Stressor (ARS) domain of the Medical Student Stressor Questionnaire (MSSQ). Associations between variables were analyzed using the Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test, with statistical significance set at p < 0.05. Most participants were classified as low caffeine consumers (92.8%), with a mean daily caffeine intake of 36.65 ± 38.61 mg. Poor sleep quality was reported by 75.5% of participants, while 70.5% experienced severe to very severe academic-related stress. No significant association was found between caffeine consumption and ARS (p = 1.000). In contrast, poor sleep quality was significantly associated with higher odds of severe ARS (p = 0.031; OR = 2.399; 95% CI: 1.068–5.387). Sleep quality was significantly associated with academic-related stress, whereas caffeine consumption was not. Medical students with poor sleep quality had more than twice the likelihood of experiencing severe academic-related stress, highlighting the importance of promoting healthy sleep habits to support students' psychological well-being.
