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: Dengue fever is a disease based on environment and still a health problem. Problems related to the dengue fever vector distribution factor in terms of the spread of vector space with the use of geographic data and survey data in order to predict the incidence of dengue in the region.Subjects and Methods: This study used analytic observational with cross sectional approach using modeling Geographical Information Systems (GIS). The sampling technique in this research is saturated sampling of secondary data Sukoharjo District Health Profile in 2011-2014, population data and data Geographic, then all the data were analyzed using multiple linear regression.Results: There is a positive relationship between the area per Km2 with the number of new cases of dengue fever, although the relationship was not statistically significant. (B = <0:01; CI -0.01 - 0:02; p = 0.310). There is a positive relationship between population density per soul / Km2dengan number of new cases of dengue fever, a significant relationship between population density with DHF cases. (B = <0:01; CI <0:01 to 0:01; p = 0.013). There is a negative relationship between topography per masl by the number of new cases of dengue fever, although the relationship was not statistically significant. (B = <0:01; CI -0.02 - 0:01; p = 0.335). There is a positive correlation between rainfall per mm / yr with the number of new cases of dengue fever, although the relationship was not statistically significant. (B = <0:01; CI <0:01 to 0:01; p = 0101). There is a positive relationship between river flow per ha by the number of new cases of dengue fever, although the relationship was not statistically significant. (B = 0:02; CI -0.01 - 0:03; p = 0318). There is a negative correlation between% Non Flick figure by the number of new cases of dengue fever, although the relationship was not statistically significant.
