Abstract

Mussel shell contains chitin and chitosan that can be used as bio-absorbent to reduce heavy metal level in contaminated water. The purpose of this study was to measure the Pb heavy metal level in well water in Keputih residential-formerly a dumping ground-before and after the application of mussel shell powder of 0, 1, 2, and 3 gram by stirring it for 10 and 30 minutes at 60 rpm. The research type was experimental, used One Group PrePost Test Design method. The object was well water which contaminated by leachate at Keputih residential ex dumping ground, Sukolilo Surabaya. The observation showed that the well water in the residential contain heavy metals of 1.049 mg/l. After being given 1, 2 and 3 gram shell powder, it decreases to 58%, 87% and 97%. Based on the statistical test, significant result was obtained at the addition of mussel shell powder of 1 and 3 grams, while addition of 2 grams was not. The conclusion is mussel shell powder can reduce the heavy Pb metal level in the well water in the Sukolilo residential and is advisable that the next researchers continue to check phisical condition of the well water.

Abstract

Background: The age of menopause between woman and other women is not similar and it depends on the factors that influence it. Some opinions suggest that menopause occurs at the age of 48-50 years, including in the climacteric period which is a syndrome of endocrine, somatic, and psychic changes at the end of the fertile / reproductive period (40-65 years). Objective: Analyze factors affecting menopause to woman. Methods: The type of this conducted research was survey research that was descriptive analytic. Population in this research was all women who aged 45-50 years at BPS Media in Surabaya, and there were 46 women. Multivariate analysis was conducted by utilizing multiple logistic regression in order to predict how far the value of dependent variable when the value of independent variable changed. Results: Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the effect of independent variables simultaneously to the dependent variable. The variable of menarcheage, job status, number of children, age in childbirthing for last child, contraception use, smoking, alcohol consumption, and disease history had p <0.25 and treated simultaneously by using forward stepwise method with 95% of confidence level. From the result of multiple logistic regression analysis, it turned out that the variable of menarche age (p = 0.762), the last childbirth age (p = 0.231), alcohol consumption (0.659), and disease history (p = 0.711) had no significant influence which p value was greater rather than α value (0.05), thus, it was excluded from the multiple logistic regression analysis model. Based on the result of multiple logistic regression analysis, the employment status, the number of children, the use of contraception, and smoking correlated with the occurrence of menopause with the probability value was smaller than α value (0.05), which work status was p = 0.033, p = 0.003, and smoking was p = 0.003. Conclusion: From the result of multiple logistic regression analysis, it was found that job status, number of children, contraception use, and smoking were simultaneously correlated with the occurrence of menopause, which each variable had a smaller probability value than α value (0.05), employment status (p = 0.033), number of children (p = 0.000), contraception use (p = 0.004), and smoking (p = 0.003). From the results of logistic regression equations, it was known that the probability of premature menopause was occurred if woman who worked, had children less than 4 children, never used contraception, and ever smoked were 0.95 or 95%.

In Indonesia, the age of adolescent who had premarital sexual intercourse was 9-24 years old. Prevalence of unmarried boys who had to have sex is 8.3% and girls are 1%. This study aims to know the determinants of resilience adolescent for not doing premarital sexual intercourse. The results show that adolescent's survival cumulative proportion is about 92.6% and age mean of sexual debut is 15.8 years old. Factors associated with adolescent's survival not to have premarital sexual intercourse are sexual arousal behavior (AHR: 7.7; 95% CI: 5.2-11.3), drunk with alcohol (AHR: 1.5; 95% CI: 1.1-2) and kissing. The association between kissing and adolescent's survival rate is different in each time unit (year). Need enforcement to give earlier education about adolescent's health reproduction, not just as formal education in high school, but also in the family and adolescent's community to prevent premarital sexual intercourse among adolescents.
