<![CDATA[Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a major public health concern, with cases among individuals aged 12–45 years in the working area of Ulee Kareng Public Health Center, Banda Aceh City, rising from 30 in 2023 to 45 in 2025. This study aims to analyze the factors associated with DHF incidence in 2025 using an analytical observational design with a case-control approach. A total of 50 respondents (25 cases and 25 controls) were selected via total sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and observation sheets, then analyzed using bivariate Chi-Square tests and multivariate multiple logistic regression at a 95% confidence level. Findings indicate that water reservoir conditions (p=0.001), mosquito larva presence (p=0.001), 3M Plus vector control behavior (p=0.001), and vector control volunteer roles (p=0.001) are significantly associated with DHF. Meanwhile, occupancy density (p=1.000) and water reservoir presence (p=0.370) show no significant association. Multivariate analysis reveals that 3M Plus behavior is the most dominant factor influencing DHF incidence (OR=12.583; 95% CI=1.553–101.946). Therefore, Ulee Kareng Public Health Center is advised to intensify community education on 3M Plus implementation, routine larva monitoring, and optimize the role of health volunteers for effective DHF prevention.]]>
