Abstract

This observational study with a case-control design aims to analyze risk factors for the incidence of Malaria in the Kaliorang Health Center Working Area, East Kutai Regency in 2023. The population in this study is all malaria patients recorded at the Kaliorang Health Center, East Kutai Regency for the period from January to November 2023 as many as 85 people as a group of cases. The population of the control group is also 85 people. The results showed that work and the existence of resting places had a significant relationship with the incidence of malaria. The chi-square analysis showed a p-< value of 0.001 for both variables. The odds ratio for employment is 0.150, which means respondents with at-risk jobs have a 0.150 times greater risk of developing malaria. Meanwhile, the Odds Ratio for resting places was 6,295, indicating that respondents whose environments had resting places such as shrubs and shrubs were 6,295 times more likely to develop malaria than those who did not.
