Core Subject : Health,
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: Tetanus is a vaccine preventable, non-communicable disease known as lockjaw and characterized by muscle spasm. It is a forgotten disease in the developed world but remained an infection of public health importance in the developing countries. This study aimed to determine the trend in its epidemiology and outcome in Nasarawa state. Subjects and Method: A retrospective study using secondary data from the medical records of three selected health facilities, one each across the three senatorial zones of the state. All those who had tetanus were included while those with incomplete records, 5 were excluded. Data analysis was done using a statistical package for social sciences version 23. The dependent variable was the outcome of tetanus while the independent variables were incubation period, onset period, type of tetanus, risk factors, vaccination history, and manifestations of tetanus. Results: The subject consists of 53.8% males and single with age (Mean=15; SD=6.90). Four and 17 days were the shortest and longest incubation periods while one and six days were the shortest and longest onset periods respectively. A total of 24 (93.3%) patients had generalized tetanus. Nail puncture, road traffic accidents, and umbilical infection were the commonest sources of post-neonatal and neonatal tetanus in this study. Spasm is the commonest manifestation, present in 19 (73.1%) of the study population. This is closely followed by trismus in 57.7% of the cases. About half have a positive vaccination history. This study found case fatality of 7.7%. Conclusion: Generalized tetanus was the commonest type seen in this study, while nail puncture, road traffic accident and umbilical infection were the most common sources of infection. Although, more than half of the study subjects received immunization to prevent tetanus, the case fatality in this study was in one in twelve sufferers.

Abstract

Background: The novel human coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 causing COVID-19 with symptoms ranging from the common cold to pneumonia, has been responsible for the current health crisis, it has spread rapidly at record speed leaving many deaths of different ages and different ethnicities, and in order to stop this propagation, scientists rushed to create several efficient vaccines against this virus, and despite being marketed in all countries of the world, opinions diverged between supporters and opponents. This prompted us to carry out this survey study on vaccination against COVID-19 at the University of Tlemcen, with the aim of exploring the perceptions and opinions of participants on vaccination and vaccines in general. Subjects dan Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted over a two months period, using a questionnaire to collect data from Teachers and Students of the University of Tlemcen with a 382 calculated sample size, the survey was shared via email and social media networks. Variables of interest included exposure to the pathogen, the laboratory testing results, effectiveness and adherence to the preventive measures, while also monitoring the vaccine acceptance and hesitancy. Descriptive and statistical analysis were run on SPSS Statistics with a p-value <0.050. Results: The majority of respondents for this study belonged to young people of the female gender (37.4%), despite the latter, men were the most vaccinated (53.4%), fortunately, most of them also acknowledge the association between prevention and vaccination (94.6%). Conclusion: Vaccine reluctance is a huge problem in the face of a pandemic that is not yet over. Even with the availability of vaccines and vaccination campaigns, unexplained fear due to rumors and conspiracy theories on social media still wins over the public about the safety of these vaccines.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is a condition of children under five with a z-score of less than -2 standard deviation (stunted) and less than -3 standard deviation (severely stunted). Interventions to accelerate stunting prevention require intervention and coaching, such as knowledge and parenting of toddlers in the community. This study aimed to determine the relationships between knowledge, and stunting in children aged 24-60 months.Subjects and Method: This was a retrospective cross-sectional study conducted in the Ketang Health Center, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. A total of 60 children aged 24-60 months and their mothers was selected using purposive sampling. The independent variables were parenting and nutritional knowledge. The dependent variable was stunting. The instruments of this study were height measurement tools, knowledge, and parenting questionnaires. The data were analyzed using multiple logistic regression.Results: Children who have mothers with poor parenting are 0.15 times more stunted than mothers with good parenting. Nutrition knowledge is 0.04 times less likely to be stunted than mothers with good nutrition knowledge.Conclusion: Mothers with poor parenting and nutritional knowledge increase the risk of stunting. Keywords: Nutritional knowledge, parenting, stunting. Correspondence:Heribertus Handi. Nursing Study Program, Universitas Katolik Indonesia Santu Paulus Ruteng. Jl. Jenderal A.
