Background: Increased blood pressure for a long time can increase the risk of kidney failure, co­ronary heart disease, brain damage, and other di­seases. In 2019, it is estimated that hyper­tens­ion is experienced by 1.13 billion people in the world with most (two thirds) living in low and mid­­dle income countries. Other study also shows that the police and military are at risk of develop­ing hypertension due to a number of factors such as low know­led­ge about healthy and nutritious food, co-workers who are smokers, and consum­ing alco­hol. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors for hypertension in the police and military in the world using meta analysis. Subjects and Method: This was a meta-ana­lysis and systematic review. The articles used we­re obtained from Google Scholar, Springer Link, Pro­­Quest, and Science Direct databases. Selected arti­cles published from 2000 to 2020. Keywords to search for articles are as follows: hypertension po­lice personnel and military, or hypertension po­lice personnel and military. The articles studi­ed are 3 full text articles with cross sectional stu­dy designs and 1 full text articles with case cont­rol study design. Articles are col­lect­ed using PRI­S­­­MA diagrams, and analy­zed us­ing the Re­vi­ew Ma­nager application 5.3. Results: Overweight (aOR= 1.42; 95% CI = 1.01 to 2.00; p= 0.04), alcohol consumption (aOR­=­ 1.­55; 95% CI= 1.12 to 2.12; p= 0.007), ciga­rette con­­­­sumption (aOR= 1.45 ; 95% CI= 1.06 to 1.97; p= 0.020) is a risk factor for hyper­­­tension in the po­­­lice and military. Conclusion: Overweight, alcohol consump­tion, and cigarette consump­tion, are risk fac­tors for hypertension in po­lice and military personnel.

Abstract

Background: The WHO reported that airborne diseases were responsible for 39 million deaths, accounting for 57% of the total 68 million deaths worldwide in 2021. Landfills are a significant source of air pollution, producing sulfur dioxide (SO2) gas, which is harmful to respiratory health, particularly the lungs. This study aims to examine the relationship between the hazard quotient of SO2 exposure and respiratory symptoms among scavengers at the Sarimukti landfill in West Bandung Regency, using an environmental health risk analysis approach.Subjects and Method: The research contributes to exposure risk management by establishing safe thresholds for SO2 concentration, exposure time, and frequency for scavengers. This study adopts a correlation design with a longitudinal approach. The sample consisted of 101 scavengers selected through accidental sampling. Pollutant measurements were taken at two locations within the Sarimukti landfill. The independent variable in this study is the hazard quotient value of SO2 expo-sure, while the dependent variable is respiratory symptoms in scavengers.Results: The results indicated a (OR= 15.83; 95% CI= 1.10 to 226.67; p= 0.008). Risk management is based on a safe SO2 concentration limit of 14.18 µg/m³, an exposure time of 15 hours, and an exposure frequency of 637 days over 30 years.Conclusion: The measurement result of SO2 concentration of 7.38 µg/m³ is still below the specified quality standard of 150 µg/m³. However, through the calculation of the hazard quotient, the concentration exceeds the safe limit (HQ >= 1). The implication of this study in preventing the occurrence of respiratory symptoms in waste pickers is the use of PPE, limiting working hours and days in the landfill.

Abstract

Background: Hepatitis B and C are the most dominant causes of viral hepatitis, leading to both acute and chronic infections. This study was done to determine the magnitude of the prevalence of Hepatitis B and C and their co-infection.Subjects and Method: A retrospective cross-sectional observational study was conducted in the Department of Microbiology, North DMC Medical College and Hindu Rao Hospital, Delhi, India from July 2023 to June 2024. All blood samples received from indoor and outdoor patients from all departments were tested by Monolisa HBsAg Ultra and anti-HCV(Ag-Ab Ultra V2) Monolisa by ELISA method. The variables studied were age, sex, in-patient/out-patient, and type of ward. The data was analyzed using the Chi-Square test and Mann-Whitney test.Results: Of a total of 20,000 blood samples received, 5,358(26.80%) samples were from inpatient department/IPD (2,210 female, 3,148 male) and 14642 (73.20%) and outpatient department/OPD (9,201 female, 5,441 male). 422 samples (2.11%) were positive for HBsAg (210 IPD -77 female, 133 male; 212 OPD - 121 female, 91 male) and 614 (3.07%) for anti-HCV (408 IPD - 135 female, 273 male; 206 OPD - 100 female, 106 male). Co-infection of Hepatitis B and C viruses was seen in 40 patients, 31 IPD (10 female, 21 male) and 9 OPD (1 female, 8 male). Maximum cases were seen from medicine wards among IPD patients of HBsAg positive, anti-HCV positive, and co-infection and in the age group 41-60 years in all three categories.Conclusion: Screening for HBV and HCV infection is compulsory so that preventive measures are implemented to improve public health.

Abstract

Background: The results of the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey show that 39.5% of the Indonesian population aged ≥ 15 years old have abnormal total cholesterol levels. Dyslipidemia or plasma lipid abnormalities play a major role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis on the walls of blood vessels which is the cause of coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke. The purpose of the study was to analyze the factors that affect dyslipidemia in workers.Subjects and Method: This study uses an analytical observational design using a cross-sectional approach. The study was conducted at the Yogyakarta Labkesmas Center in October 2024 with a total of 150 worker study subjects. The sampling technique is non-probability sampling, namely total sampling. The independent variables in this study were BMI, glucose levels, stress, and depression while the dependent variables were total cholesterol levels. Data collection was carried out using secondary data and questionnaires, the data was analyzed by path analysis.Results: Each increase of one mg/dL of glucose level (b = 0.24; CI 95%= 0.09 to 0.39; p = 0.002) and one unit of depression (b = 0.16; CI 95%= 0.01 to 0.31; p= 0.043) will be followed by an increase in total cholesterol levels. Any increase in BMI through a mediator of glucose levels and stress through a mediator of depression will be followed by an increase in total cholesterol levels.Conclusion: Total cholesterol levels increase with increased glucose levels and depression levels. Total cholesterol levels are indirectly affected by BMI through glucose level mediators and stress levels through depression mediators.

Abstract

Background: Depression is a mental health problem that affects an individual's quality of life. Previous studies have shown that individuals with high social capital are less likely to experience depression. Understanding the dynamics of social capital and its impact on depression is essential for developing interventions and policies that can improve mental well-being at both the individual and community levels. This study aims to analyze the influence of structural, cognitive, and relational social capital on depression in adults.Subjects and Method: This study is a cross-sectional study carried out in Klaten, Central Java in September-October 2024. Population of 726,839 adults and a sample of 200 adults aged 19-59 years were selected using multistage random sampling. The dependent variable was depression. The independent variables were structural social capital, cognitive social capital, and relational social capital. Depression data was measured using Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and other data using questionnaires. Data was analyzed using the Structural Equation Model run on STATA 13.Results: Strong social capital lowered adults' risk of depression (b= -0.39; CI 95%= -0.56 to -0.23; p= 0.001). The older you get, the lower the depression score (b= -0.17; CI 95%= -0.31 to -0.03; p= 0.018). The social capital construct in this study is positively and statistically significant by the structural social capital component (b= 0.75; CI 95%= 0.58 to 0.92; p= 0.001), cognitive social capital component (b= 0.56; CI 95%= 0.39 to 0.73; p= 0.001), and the relational social capital component (b= 0.62; CI 95%= 0.48 to 0.76; p= 0.001). The SEM model showed a good fit (Chi-square p= 0.113; RMSEA= 0.070; CFI= 0.98; TLI= 0.93; SRMR= 0.03).Conclusion: Strong social capital and increasing age lower the risk of depression in adults. The social capital construct is positively and statistically significant by the components of structural social capital, cognitive social capital, and relational social capital. This SEM model shows a good fit.
