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 work environment greatly affects the health condition of the workers so that there are no work-related accidents or occupational diseases. Noisy physical environmental factors above the threshold value have a risk of causing occupational diseases such as psychological work stress and hypertension. This study aims to analyze the effect of noise exposure on occupational stress and hypertension among workers. Subjects and Method: This study is a systematic review and meta analysis with the following PICO. P: working society, I: exposure noise ≥85 dBA, C: not exposed to noise ≥85 dBA, O: Stress and Hypertension. This study used of articles published between 2009 and 2022 were comprehensively searched for using electronic databases like PubMed, ProQuest, Scopus, and Google Scholar. The keywords to search for articles were “noise exposure” OR “occupational noise” AND “occupational stress” OR “work stress” AND “hypertension”. The adjusted odds ratio was used to evaluate the effect size (aOR). To evaluate the bias risk, the Critical Appraisal Skill Program (CASP) was used. Articles were analyzed using the Review Manager 5.3 application. Results: This study includes 14 papers, using cross-sectional and case-control study designs, from Asia, including Indonesia, Malaysia, China, Jordan, and South Korea. Based on 5 studies cross-sectional on the effects of exposure to noise in the event of work stress, work stress increases 4.88 times compared to workers who are not exposed to noise (aOR=4.88; 95% CI= 1.77 to 13.47; p= 0.002). 9 subgroup studies with cross-sectional and case-control study designs on the effect of noise exposure showed an increase of 2.47 times the incidence of hypertension compared to workers who were not exposed to noise at work (aOR= 2.47; 95% CI= 1.75 to 3.48; p<0.001). Conclusion: Exposure to noise increases the risk of work-related stress and hypertension. Suggestions that can be made are to carry out engineering, periodic measurements, work time management, workforce education and use of PPE.

Abstract

Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) has a significant risk of developing active Tuber-culosis (TB) and complicates its treatment. There is no conclusive evidence on whether TB-T2DM comorbidities are associated with an increased risk of Multidrug Resistant Tuberculosis (MDR-TB). The study aims to analyze and estimate the relationship of T2DM to MDR-TB incidence and to estimate the size of the combined effect. Subjects and Method: This study was a meta-analysis with PICO, Population: patients actively undergoing MDR-TB treatment. Intervention: Patients with comorbid Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Comparison: Tuberculosis patients without comorbid Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Output: MDR-TB (Multidrug Resistant Tuberculosis). The articles used in this study were obtained from databases with keywords to search for articles were ("Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2" OR "diabetic" OR "diabetes") AND "tuberculosis" AND ("Tuberculosis, Multidrug-Resistant" OR "drug resistance" OR "multidrug-resistant" OR "multidrug resistant" OR "multidrug resistance" OR "drug-resistant" OR "drug resistant"). Articles were selected based on inclusion criteria, is published in the form of an English full-text article from January 2015 to January 2025, reporting the relationship between T2DM and MDR-TB among TB patients. The articles were selected using the PRISMA flow diagram and analyzed using the Review Manager 5.3 application. Results: This meta-analysis consisted of 9 articles originating from Europe, Asia, Africa and America. Results of the meta-analysis showed that the cohort study of type 2 diabetes mellitus had a 4.11 times greater risk of developing MDR-TB compared to people who did not have type 2 diabetes mellitus. In a control case study of type 2 diabetes mellitus, there was a 3.11 times greater risk of developing MDR-TB than people without type 2 diabetes mellitus, and both were statistically significant (aOR= 3.39; CI 95%= 2.05 to 8.24; p= 0.001). Conclusion: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a risk factor for MDR TB.
