Abstract

Background: The case fatality rate (CFR) of Co­vid­-19 death­s in Indonesia on June 16, 2020 was 5.52% and 4.19% in West Nusa Tenggara. One of the causes of this high percentage of deaths is the lack of preventive behavior against Covid-19. This study aims to analyze factors as­so­ciated with Co­vid-19 preventive behavior among people in West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia.Subjects and Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted in 10 cities/districts in West Nusa Tenggara from May-June 2020. A total of 385 people were enrolled in this study. Data were collected using a questionnaire distributed in the form of Google form and analyzed using multiple linear regressions with Stata 13.Results: High education level (≥high school) (aOR= 0.43; 95%CI=0.03 to 0.82; p=0.033), perceived benefits (aOR=0.16; 95%CI= 0.07 to 0.25; p=0.001), and good knowledge (aOR=0.19; 95%CI= 0.01 to 0.37; p=0.034) were increased the preventive behavior. While, male (aOR= 0.54; 95% CI= -0.89 to -0.19; p=0.002), perceived barriers (aOR= -0.16; 95%CI= -0.25 to -0.07; p= 0.001) were decreased the preventive behavior toward Covid-19, and they were statis­ti­cally sig­nificant.Conclusion: Education higher than high school, high perceived benefit, and good knowledge are increase the local people behavior to prevent Co­vid-19 in West Nusa Tenggara.Keywords: Covid-19, preventive behavior, West Nusa TenggaraCorrespondence: Artha Budi Susila Duarsa.

Abstract

Background: Smoking is still one of the great­est public health threats faced by citizens of the world. Data from the Central Statistics Agency in 2018 shows that smoking behavior in Lampung Province has a prevalence of 35.95%. The World Health Organization (WHO) states that smoking kills more than 8 million people per year worldwide. This study aimed to ana­lyze the determinants of adolescent smoking beha­vior at the individual level and at the school level.Subjects and Method: This was a cross sec­tional study conducted in East Lampung Re­gency, Indonesia, from October to November 2020. A number of 200 male adolescents were selected by random sampling. The dependent variable was smoking behavior. The  indepen­dent variables were the influence of parents, peers, media exposure, pocket money, cigarette price, intention, attitude, and contextual effect of school. The data were collected by question­naire and analyzed using a multiple multilevel logistic regression with Stata 13.Results: The influence of family (b=2.88; 95% CI= 0.73 to 3.85; p= 0.004), peers (b= 2.85; 95% CI= 0.65 to 3.52; p= 0.004), media expo­sure (b= 3.04; 95% CI= 0.78 to 3.62; p= 0.002), money pocket (b= 3.22; 95% CI= 0.87 to 3.59; p= 0.001), cigarette price (b= 2.73; 95% CI= 0.54 to 3.28; p= 0.006), intention to smoke (b= 2.80; 95% CI= 0.69 to 3.95; p= 0.005), attitude toward smoking (b=3.83; 95% CI= 1.80 to 5.58; p<0.001) increased the likeli­hood to smoke in male adolescents. School had strong contextual effect on smoking in adoles­cents with ICC= 21.83%.Conclusion: The influence of family, peers, media exposure, money pocket, cigarette price, intention to smoke, attitude toward smoking increase the likelihood to smoke in male adolescents.

Abstract

Background: Leptospirosis is an acute infec­tious disease that can attack humans and ani­mals caused by the Leptospira bacteria. Lepto­spirosis contributes to morbidity and mortality in the high-risk group, namely adults. Compli­ance with the use of personal protective equip­ment and direct contact with animal tissue infected with Leptospira sp. bacteria increase the risk of leptospirosis. This study aims to ana­lyze the magnitude of the effect of using per­sonal protective equipment on the risk of leptospirosis with a meta-analysis.Subjects and Method: This was a systematic review and meta-analysis carried out by follow­ing the PRISMA flow diagram. The process of searching for articles is through a journal data­base which includes: PubMed, Springer Link, Google Scholar and Science Direct by selecting articles published in 1999-2020. Keywords used "Leptospirosis AND Personal Protective Equipment", "leptospirosis" AND "risk factors", "leptospirosis AND adjusted odds ratio", "lepto­spirosis" AND "adults", "leptospirosis AND risk factors AND adjusted odds ratio". The inclu­sion criteria were full paper articles with observa­tio­nal study design, articles in English and Indo­nesian, multivariate analysis used with adjusted odds ratio. Articles that meet the requirements are analyzed using the Revmen 5.3 application.Results: A total of 8 articles were reviewed in this study with a cross-sectional and case-control study design. Meta-analysis of 4 case-control studies showed that non-adherence to the use of personal protective equipment had a 2.77 times increased risk of leptospirosis compared with using personal protective equipment (aOR= 2.77, 95% CI= 1.76 to 4.36, p <0.001). A meta-analysis of 4 cross-sectional studies concluded that non-adherence to the use of personal protective equip­ment had a 2.73 times increased risk of lepto­spirosis compared with using personal protective equipment (aOR= 2.73, 95% CI= 1.99 to 3.74; p= <0.001).Conclusion: Non-compliance with the use of personal protective equipment increases the risk of leptospirosis.Keywords: leptospirosis, personal protective equipment, meta-analysisCorrespondence: Rizki Kurniawan Saputra.

Abstract

Background:  Nigeria has a Maternal Mortality Ratio of 814 per 100,000 births. Only 30% of births in Nigeria occur in health facilities. A proven method to prevent maternal deaths is to provide emergency obstetric care and promote hospital birth. Application of the Three Phases of Delay Model to hospital births in Nigeria directed a community needs assessment and may influence local and regional health promotion efforts with the goal of preventing maternal deaths. This study aimed to analyze maternal deaths in Nigeria, employing a qualitative approach with the Three Phases of Delay model.Subjects and Method: This was a qualitative study grounded in theory research that employed focus groups and key informant interviews in Cross River State, Nigeria. A stratified random sampling of local government areas was followed by a random selection of wards and a purposive selection of key informants and focus group participants. In total 26 key informants and 100 focus group, discussion participants were selected across the wards in accordance with local customs. All responses were recorded digitally and transcribed verbatim. All key informant interviews and all but two focus groups were conducted in English. Data were collected in December 2016, over a four-week period. The transcripts were analyzed using Atlas TI to designate codes and to compile quotes by theme.Results:  Application of the Three Phases of Delay Model to hospital births in Cross River State, Nigeria found significant points of delay at all levels of the Delay Model. The most prevalent of the delays described by the focus groups and key informants were delays in reaching the point of care and delay in receiving quality care at the health facility.Conclusion:  Identifying the influences on delay can be employed to develop and plan local and regional health promotion efforts with the goal of preventing maternal death.Keywords:  maternal mortality, childbirths, pregnancy, delay model, health facility.Correspondence:Precious Chidozie Azubuike.

Abstract

Background: Apart from parents reluctance towards childrens early eye-care, government eye care services are costly, few ophthalmologists are in place, yet people suffering from eye infections are increasing. This study aimed to explore the response of parents towards exposing their children with eye health conditions to early eye care services, the efficiency of eye care services offered and the costs involved in accessing eye care services.Subjects and Method: This was a qualitative study with in-depth interview. Conducted in Mubende, Uganda, from June 2019 to May 2020. A total of 12 informants were selected by purposive sampling. The data were collected using semi structured interviews from 12 participants involving children with eye health conditions and one (1) ophthalmic Officer (OCO). Investigator triangulation method was used whereby each participant was interviewed by more than one investigator as a way of obtaining several differing opinions concerning issues in question. The transcribed data were analyzed using content analysis.Results: The findings indicated that, parental responsibility for children with eye health conditions for early assessment, diagnosis and treatment was generally lacking among fathers than among mothers. Poverty, illiteracy and ignorance among parents, use of traditional herbal treat­ment of eyes often resulted in serious consequences. Regarding efficiency, there were a lot of hardships in accessing the eye care services due to limited eye care centres, inadequate skilled or specialized personnel and irregular attendance by medical staff in government eye-care centres. The eye health care services were found to be expensive and unaffordable by the community.Conclusion: The study concluded that overall, opportunities for visual assessment, diagnosis and treatment for children with eye health conditions in Mubende District were generally limited. Comprehensive eye care services that covers every member of the community are highly recommended.Keywords: eye-care services, eye health conditions, Mubende-UgandaCorrespondence: Odette Tumwesigye Niyisabwa.

Abstract

Background: Childhood overweight and obe­sity is one of the most serious public health challenges of the 21st century. Overweight and obesity are one side of the double burden of malnutrition because more than 1.9 billion people are overweight and of that number more than 650 million are obese. Meanwhile, for children aged 5-19 years, more than 340 million children are overweight and obese. One category of intervention to prevent overweight / obesity in children who have developed rapidly in recent years is family-based intervention. This study aims to estimate the magnitude of the effect of family-based intervention on overweight / obesity based on the results of a number of previous studies.Subjects and Method: This was a systematic study and meta-analysis carried out by follow­ing the PRISMA flow diagram. The process of searching for articles through a journal data­base which includes: Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect and SpingerLink by selecting articles published in 2005-2020. Keywords used include: “family-based intervention” OR “family-based program” OR “family-based treatment” OR “family-based” OR “home-based intervention” OR “household based interven­tion” AND “children overweight OR "childhood overwight" AND "pediatric obesity" OR "child­ren obesity" OR "children obese" OR "child­hood obesity" OR "childhood obese" AND RCT OR "randomized controlled trial" OR "cluster-randomized controlled trial". The inclusion criteria were a full paper article with a rando­mized controlled trial (RCT) study design, the article used English, the study subjects were overweight / obese children (aged 5-19 years) and the intervention given was family-based intervention. Articles that meet the require­ments are analyzed using the Review Manger 5.3 application.Results: A total of 11 articles reviewed in this meta-analysis study came from Malaysia, the United States, Australia, England, Spain, Denmark and Sweden. Meta-analysis of 11 articles with a randomized controlled trial (RCT) study design showed that family-based intervention had an effect on reducing children's body mass index but it was not statis­tically significant (Standarized Mean Diffe­rence= -0.46; 95% CI -1.05 to 0.13 p= 0.130).Conclusion: Family-based intervention reduces body mass index for overweight / obese children.Keywords: family-based intervention, over­weight, obesity, children, meta analysisCorrespondence: Mario Febrianus Helan Sani.

Abstract

Background: Quality nutrition is a deter­mi­nant of children's survival, health, and growth. Nutritional problems and lack of nutrient intake are also about whether bad in the environment or commonly known as clean and healthy behavior. Social capital refers to social relationships and connections between indivi­duals because it is more of a relationship between individuals than an individual attri­bute. This study aimed to examine the relation­ship between clean and healthy behavior and social capital with the nutritional status of children under five at the Waingapu City Health Center.Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study conducted at the Waingapu Health Center, East Sumba, East Nusa Teng-gara, Indonesia, in April 2021. The sample was 200 mothers, and children under five were selected randomly. The dependent variable was child nutritional status (WAZ). The indepen­dent variables were social capital, clean and healthy behavior, gender, maternal age, mater-nal occupation, and maternal education. Data were collected by using a questionnaire and analyzed by multiple logistic regression.Results: Clean and healthy lifestyle improved good nutritional status (OR= 5.50; 95% CI= 1.19 to 25.43; p= 0.029). High social capital in­creased good nutritional status (OR= 2.28; 95% CI= 1.15 to 4.51; p= 0.017).Conclusion: Healthy, clean living behavior, and high social capital improve good nutria­tional status.Keywords: clean and healthy behavior, social capital, nutritional statusCorrespondence: Stevani Rambu Kudu.
