Abstract

Background: Stunting is a serious health issue in Indonesia, impacting children's growth and development due to chronic malnutrition, recurrent infections, and harmful environmental factors. This study aimed to examine factors influencing stunting prevention behavior in pregnant women Subjects and Method: A quantitative study with a path analysis approach. It was conducted in Probolinggo Regency using cluster random samping, based on inclusion criteria. The sample size consisted of 220 respondents spread across four community health centers (Puskesmas). The research variables include independent varaibles: exposure to cigarette smoke, socio-economic status, and social support; intervening variables: acces to healthcare services and health status; and dependent variable: stunting prevention behavior. The research instrument useda questionnaire based on the theoryof factors influencing stunting prevention in pregnant women, Data analysis was performed using path analysis with Amos software. Results: Social support on stunting prevention behavior through health status of pregnant women (Z-value = 1.23; p-value = 0.022). Social support on stunting prevention behavior in pregnant women through access to healthcare services (Z-value = -3.92; p-value = 0.00). Cigarette smoke exposure on stunting prevention behavior through health status of pregnant women (Z-value = 10.53; p-value = 0.00). Socio-economic status on stunting prevention behavior through health status of pregnant women (Z-value = 2.19; p-value = 0.03). Conclusion: Health promotion targeting the improvement of socio-economic status and social support, as well as preventing tobacco smoke exposure, plays a significant role in influencing stunting prevention behavior among pregnant women. Health status and access to healthcare services act as mediators that link social support, tobacco smoke exposure, and socio-economic status to stunting prevention behavior. By implementing community-based health promotion strategies, we can prevent stunting in a more holistic and sustainable manner.

Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis is a disease that requires attention in global health issues. Tuber­culosis is a disease with a high mortality rate. Although a cure for tuberculosis has been discovered, the treatment process remains challenging, particularly the length of treatment. Tuberculosis pati­ents often fail to complete their treatment due to the lengthy duration. Support from loved ones and a supportive environment is crucial for tuberculosis patients during their treatment. With this support, tuberculosis patients will have a support system that can assist them in their treatment. This study aims to estimate the effect of social support on treatment compliance in tuberculosis patients. Subjects and Method: This study used a systematic review and meta-analysis using PICO. Population: tuberculosis patients. Intervention: social support. Comparison: no social support. Outcome: treatment adherence. The articles used in this study came from 2 databases, namely Google Scholar and Science Direct. The keywords of the article are "tuberculosis" AND ("social support" OR "support system") AND ("adherence" OR "compliance") AND "cross sectional" AND "multivariate". This study uses articles published in 2019 to 2025 with full paper articles, cross-sectional study designs, and the magnitude of the Adjusted Odds Ratio relationship. Articles were analyzed using the Review Manager 5.3 application. Results: Eleven cross-sectional studies showed that social support can increase tuberculosis treatment adherence by 1.44 times compared to tuberculosis patients who do not receive social support, and this result is statistically significant (aOR = 1.44; 95% CI = 1.03 to 2.01; p = 0.03). The forest plot also shows high heterogeneity of effect estimates between primary studies I2 = 84%. The calculation of the average effect estimate was carried out using the random effect model approach. Conclusion: Good social support can help improve treatment adherence in patients with tuberculosis.

Abstract

Background: There is no safe level of cigarette smoke, but not everyone can avoid the exposure. Public health students are expected to bring changes to healthy behaviors in the community, including getting the right to have air free from cigarette smoke through various preventive efforts. Therefore, this study aims to identify the behavior of public health students at Universitas Sriwijaya as passive smokers, and its correlation with knowledge and attitudes. Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study conducted at Universitas Sriwijaya, South Sumatera, Indonesia, from February to March 2025. A sample of undergraduate students of Public Health was selected using purposive sampling. The dependent variable was smoking behavior. The independent variables were knowledge and attitude. Data were analyzed using a multiple logistic regression. Results: Passive smoking behavior among college students was influenced by knowledge (b = 0.17; 95% CI = –0.14 to 0.47; p = 0.103) and attitude (b = 0.61; 95% CI = 0.26 to 0.96; p = 0.001). While knowledge showed a positive but not statistically significant association with passive smoking behavior, attitude showed a statistically significant positive association. Conclusion: Passive smoking behavior among college students is influenced by knowledge and attitude. Knowledge and attitude have positive association with passive smoking behavior.
