Abstract

Background: Long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs) are the most effective methods of birth control. LARCs include the copper IUD, the hormonal (progesterone) IUD, and the hormonal contraceptive implant (effective for 10, 5 and 3 years, respectively). These methods of birth control can prevent unwanted pregnancy up to 20 times better than birth control pills, patches, and vaginal rings. However, the use of LARCs remains low in Boyolali, Central Java, Indonesia. This study aimed to analyze the determinants of women’s choice of a LARC in Boyolali, Central Java. Subjects and Method: This was a case control study conducted in 25 community health centers, Boyolali District, Central Java, from April 24 to May 20, 2018. A sample of 200 women in reproductive age was selected by fixed disease sampling. The dependent variable was choice of a LARC. The independent variables were age, education, parity, knowledge, husband support, and counseling by health worker. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a logistic regression multilevel using Stata 13 program. Results: Women’s choice of the LARC increased with age ≥35 years (b= 4.54; 95% CI= 1.69 to 12.15; p= 0.003), education ≥senior high school (b= 4.59; 95%CI= 1.80 to 11.70; p= 0.001), parity ≥3 (b = 7.15; 95%CI= 2.63 to 19.44; p<0.001), better knowledge (b= 2.20; 95% CI= 0.88 to 5.50; p= 0.089), counseling by health worker (b= 2.82; 95% CI= 1.11 to 7.11; p= 0.028), and husband support (b= 5.54; 95% CI= 2.15 to 14.28; p<0.001). Conclusion: Women’s choice of LARC increases with age ≥35 years, education ≥senior highschool, parity ≥3, better knowledge, counseling by health worker, and husband support.

As such the growth and development of children under five need serious attention. This study aimed to analyze the effect of family income, education, maternal occupation, and birth weight, on the development of children under five.Subjects and Method: The study was observational analytic using cross sectional design. The study was conducted in Kindergarten of Aisyiyah III Kadipiro in May-June 2016. A total sample of 50 subjects was selected for this study. The independent variables were family income, education, maternal occupation, and birth weight. The dependent variable was child development. The data were analyzed using a multivariate linear regression model.Results: Family income had a negative relationship with child development, but was not statistically significant (OR= 0:13; 95% CI <0.01 to 5.02; p= 0.274). Maternal education (OR= 22.22; 95% CI= 1.35 to 365.07; p= 0.030), occupation (OR= 96.18; 95% CI= 1.69 to 5644.84; p=0.027), and birth weight (OR= 32.21; 95% CI= 1.76 to 588.84; p= 0.019), had positive and statistically significant relationship with child development.Conclusion: Maternal education, maternal occupation, and birth weight have positive effect on child development.Keywords: family income, education, occupation, birth weightCorrespondence:Rusiana Sri Haryanti.

Abstract

Background: Abortion remains a critical determinant of maternal morbidity and mortality in Kenya. Recent studies on induced abortion estimated an annual abortion incidence of 48 abortions per 1,000 women of reproductive age, which is higher than other East African countries. In 2010, the Kenyan Constitution widened the provisions under which women qualified for safe abortions. However, majority of women still seek abortion services from unqualified providers. Using an interpretive, meaning-centered approach, this study aims to explore the barriers to safe abortion services in Kibera informal settlements, Nairobi Kenya.Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study encompassing both qualitative and quantitative research methods. We used different sampling techniques (convenient, purposive and snow ball methods) to recruit our study participants (n=55). Quantitative data was collected using a survey questionnaire and data was analyzed by SPSS version 21. Qualitatively, data was collected using Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), Key Informant interviews and case study narratives. This involved note taking and audio recordings, which were transcribed verbatim and thematically analyzed using QSR Nvivo 21 software.Results: This study revealed that women
