Abstract

Background: The onslaught of Indonesian popular culture in Malaysia is an inevitable phenomenon. It enters without being prevented because of its presence in addition to the factor of technological sophistication, also because of the demand of many Malaysian audiences. The number of soap operas has infuriated certain circles. The reason is that the Indonesian culture that is born in Indonesian soap operas is shredded and superstition and it is not in accordance with the culture in Malaysia. All of this raises concerns that the presence of Indonesian culture will affect the identity, religion, and language, of the local community. Aims: This study aims to investigate and looking at the extent of the impression of Indonesian popular culture in Malaysia and to see the perception of Malaysian society, which is predominantly Muslim, in accepting non-Islamic elements aired in one of Indonesia's popular cultural products and see to what extent this affects emotional health, mental health and identity formation. Methods: To achieve the objectives and in order to avoid subjective views, this study is conducted in a controlled manner, namely by collecting data that supports presumptions, assumptions, and theories and also collecting opposing facts so that conclusions are not based on wishes, but what is found empirically. The data collection techniques in a qualitative approach can be done through observation, unstructured interviews, conversations, oral history and text analysis by using the basic question, namely Open-Ended questions. This is type of question allows respondents to answer more deeply and unexpectedly because the answers given will be subjective, according to the views of those people. Answers from open-ended questions can make us discover unknown and more in-depth topics about a study. Conclusion: Indonesian soap operas, as a form of soft power, have the capacity to influence the cultural and psychological landscape of Malaysian millennials. The consumption of such media can lead to stress, emotional fatigue, and identity conflicts, particularly when the content challenges established cultural and religious norms. By understanding the complex interplay between cultural influence and mental health, future research can focus on developing media literacy strategies and providing psychological support to help viewers navigate the potential stressors of cross-cultural media consumption.

Abstract

Background: Adolescents are a strategic target in preventing HIV/AIDS and drug abuse. The number of incidences of HIV among children aged 1–14 years has reached 14,150 cases. This number is increased by 700–1,000 each year. In the future, teenagers have the potential to spread information and conducive change, leading society toward a healthier paradigm dealing with HIV/AIDS and drugs. Aims: This recent study is to conduct an assessment of the HIV risks and preventions of HIV at ‘Aisyiyah Junior High School Bantul in order to strengthening HIV education and health promotion in schools. Methods: This research was conducted using a qualitative approach with all the students of Aisyiyah Junior High School Bantul. Focused interviews were conducted to analyze the promotion and prevention of HIV, facilities and infrastructure, access to HIV information, and HIV advocacy in schools. Results: This study highlights several challenges in HIV education at ‘Aisyiyah Junior High School Bantul, Indonesia. Students mostly rely on limited sources like internet articles and school activities for HIV information, but there's a noticeable lack of accessible, comprehensive resources. The school has adequate facilities, including a health unit, but these aren’t being fully utilized for HIV education. While there are some efforts in advocacy, both internal and external, they aren’t as effective as they could be. Overall, the school’s prevention initiatives need more focus and direct engagement with HIV topics, alongside better access to information to truly make a difference. Conclusion: The primary factor in preventing HIV among adolescents is knowledge. Therefore, providing access facilitates infrastructure and makes teenagers the agents of prevention of HIV. In addition, advocacy in the form of promotion and prevention can be conducted. Received: 04 November 2024  |  Reviewed: 20 November 2024  |  Revised: 15 December 2024  |  Accepted: 02 January 2025.

Abstract

Background: Obesity place patients at risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). There may be an inverse relationship between obesity and CVD prognosis-a phenomenon known as the “obesity paradox”. Obese HF patients might have a better prognosis, especially in terms of quality of life (QoL). Aims: The purpose of this study was to examine the QoL of HF patients based on obesity classification. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at the HF clinic of Hasna Medika Cardiovascular Hospital, Cirebon, Indonesia. Samples were HFrEF patients who had received medication at the HF clinic for at least 6 months and the patient must have received optimal guidelines directed medical therapy (GDMT) with at least 3 pillar drugs according to Indonesian heart failure guidelines. Inclusion criteria were HF patients with ejection fraction <40% on echocardiographic examination. Exclusion criteria were HF patients with motor impairments, such as post-stroke, severe osteoarthritis, paralysis, and patients who did not receive optimal GDMT. Results: A total of 40.3% sample were obese, 9.7% were underweight and 67.5% had central obesity. Coronary artery disease (89.6%), smoking (67.5%) and hypertension (49.4%) were the most common comorbidities and risk factors found. About 12.3% of sample experienced rehospitalization 3 times a year. Based on Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ)-12, about 3.2% of the sample had poor QoL, 55.8% had good QoL and 9.7% had excellent QoL. HFrEF patients with excellent QoL had a proportion of 66.7% obese and 20% overweight. While there were no obese patients in HFrEF patients with poor QoL. The proportion of HFrEF patients with excellent QoL who had central obesity was 80%. Meanwhile, 65.1% of HFrEF patients with good QoL were obese. Conclusion: Obese HF patients have better QoL outcomes. This phenomenon is called obesity paradox. A good quality of life in HF patients is an important goal of HF management in addition to reducing mortality.   Received: 02 December 2024 | Reviewed: 17 December 2024 | Revised: 24 December 2024 | Accepted: 10 January 2025.

Abstract

The environmental consequences of climate change have become a global health emergency. Reports and reviews continue to document multiple health impacts from increasing temperatures, rising sea levels and more frequent extreme weather events like severe drought, flooding and wildfires. The consequences of global warming on human health include heat-related morbidity and mortality, an increase in vector borne and infectious diseases, greater severity of respiratory diseases, adverse nutritional effects from food insecurity, higher rates of injury and multiple effects from financial, educational, social and psychological stressors. The extent to which climate change is impacting human health and lives is such that action by the public health community is urgently required to provide public education and define effective intervention, prevention and treatment strategies. Only in this way can the initiatives and policies be generated that are required to inform and engage everyone in society, and make people aware that action is needed to counter the dangers to health posed by climate change.  Published: 05 February 2025.

Abstract

The PM 2.5 pollution problem in Thailand is intensifying in major cities and across the country, significantly impacting public health. According to surveys in Thailand, PM 2.5 originates from three primary factors: automobiles, outdoor biomass burning/factories, and the inversion phenomenon or stagnant air conditions. Although Thailand has implemented policies to address these three key causes, their practical execution has fallen short of achieving the desired outcomes. A deeper analysis reveals hidden problems within these policies, which hinder their effectiveness. This presentation aims to highlight these hidden issues and propose preliminary solutions to mitigate them, thereby contributing to more successful PM 2.5 management in the future.

Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that can infect children. The prevalence of pediatric TB in Indonesia has increased in recent years, causing a major burden on children's health. Aims: To determine the characteristics of pediatric TB patients at Sidawangi Pulmonary Hospital, West Java Province, Indonesia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Sidawangi Pulmonary Hospital, West Java Province, Indonesia. The samples were new cases of pediatric TB from January 2020 to July 2023. Data were collected and analyzed from outpatient and inpatient medical records. Logistic regression was used to analyze the association between age and household contact. Results: There were 190 pediatric TB patients collected during the study period. Most of them were less than 5 years old (37.9%). The proportion of male and female was almost same. Most pediatric TB patients had household contacts (73.7%), especially those <1 year old. TB patients aged <1 year had an AOR of 31.94 (95%CI 3.8­­­–268.35) for household contact compared to those aged 10-17 years. Conclusion: Pediatric TB patients at Sidawangi Pulmonary Hospital are mostly less than 5 years old. Compared to older age groups, pediatric TB patients aged <1 year had the highest proportion of household contacts. The government needs to pay attention to the risk of TB transmission to children through household contact, especially in younger children.
