Abstract

Introduction: In 2022, there was a large increase in cases resulting in extraordinary events cases in the TTS district with the number 226 cases. Half of the percentage of outbreak cases that occurred in Soe City with a number of cases is 134 cases. Spatial analysis can be used to see patterns of disease distribution in certain areas.Methods: This research is a type of descriptive research with a case study approach. This descriptive research was carried out using a survey method where there was no intervention on variables but simply observing natural phenomena or looking for relationships between these phenomena and other variables.Results:  The research of dengue case data is divided into univariate analysis and spatial analysis, for example, classification, buffering and Moran index. Environmental factors in the form of the existence and condition of water reservoirs with dengue fever incidents can be seen in data related to the number of water reservoirs used by the community which are left open and the number is >3, making it easier for mosquitoes to breed. In the Spatial Classification Analysis, Nonohonis Village has the highest level of risk, but Autocorrelation Analysis states that the Oekefan area has larger cluster points than Nonohonis Village. Furthermore, environmental factors include the existence and condition of dug wells. at a depth of ≤15m with open conditions makes it easier for mosquitoes to breed. Apart from that, based on the buffer data above, it can be seen that at a radius of <100m it is 3 times larger than a radius of 100 to 300m and 2.7 times larger than a radius of 300m to 500m. Environmental factors include the existence and condition of waste water drainage channels (SPAL) with dengue fever incidents. Based on the buffer data above, it can be seen that at a radius of <100m it is 0.6 times greater than the radius from 100 to 300m and 0.8 times greater than the radius from 300m to 500m.Conclusion: It is necessary to control mosquito breeding in water reservoirs and dug wells through education regarding malaria risk factors in Soe City.

Abstract

Abstract Background: Bengkulu's tropical climate is very suitable for Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus mosquito breeding. Temperature, humidity and rainfall affect mosquito breeding and dengue virus proliferation in mosquitoes, which in turn had an effect on the dengue infections. Dengue prevention strategy currently focuses on vector control with the Larvae Free Rate (LFR) parameter. This study aimed to determine environmental factors affecting the LFR in 2022 in Bengkulu City, Indonesia.Methods: This research used a cross-sectional study design with time series analysis. Time series was used to analyze and interpret sequential data points collected over  the interval of time. Secondary data about LFR was obtained from the Bengkulu City Health Service, and climate variables from the Climatology Station of the Bengkulu Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency. Data analysis was conducted through simple linear regressions.Results: The average of LFR in Bengkulu City in 2022 was 78.13% (below the national target), with the highest in December (87.85%) and the lowest in May (68.53%). The average temperature, humidity, and rainfall were 26.88°C (moderate), 83.5% (moderate), and 328.96% (high), respectively. The simple linear regression analysis showed that the effect of temperature, humidity, and rainfall was significant to LFR with the respective p-values of 0.010; 0.612, and 0.173).Conclusion: Temperature influenced the LFR by 58,5% but humidity and rainfall have no effect on LFR of Aedes spp. in Bengkulu City in 2022. High temperatures will increase the risk of transmission of dengue virus infection by 3-5%.

Abstract

Introduction: Infant mortality rate (IMR) is one of the indicator of the success for maternal and child health programs. Infant mortality rates affected by biological, environmental, socioeconomic factors and quality of healthcare services. This study aimed to analyze the factors affecting infant mortality rates in the East Java Province using a spatial regression model.Methods: The research units were all 38 districts and cities in East Java Province. Secondary data from the 2023’ Health Profile of East Java Province was used in this study, which included the number of infant deaths and the biological, environmental, socioeconomic factors, the availability and quality of health services. In this study, spatial modelling was conducted using an area approach and spatial influence using the Spatial Autoregressive Moving Average (SARMA) method with Queen Contiguity spatial weights.Results: Based on R2 and AIC values, the Spatial Autoregressive model was preferable to Ordinary Least Squares. The obtained model showed that low birth weight and the percentage of the population that can access good sanitation were the significant factors influencing infant mortality in this study. The other factors: percentage of deliveries by health workers, obstetric complications handled, percentage of poor people, infants receiving vitamin A, and infants receiving exclusive breastfeeding had no significant effect on Infant Mortality Rates.Conclusion: Factors that had significant effect on infant mortality rates in this study were low birth weight and percentage of residents who had access to proper sanitation.
