Abstract

The Basic Emergency Obstetric and Newborn Care (BEmONC) strategy was designed to provide evidence-based interventions at the primary level to control maternal and newborn mortality. With less than a decade until the conclusion of the Sustainable Development Goals, much work remains to be done in the Philippines to achieve the set target on maternal mortality. Recognition of the determinants affecting its implementation may elucidate what still needs to be addressed. This study aims to identify the facilitators and barriers to accessibility of quality BEmONC services. Eight focus group discussions consisting of BEmONC providers were conducted from February to April 2021. These were recorded, transcribed, then translated into English. Data then underwent thematic analysis using NVivo to identify emerging themes and subthemes. 102 health care providers participated in the study. Four main themes emerged: institutional capacity, service capacity, personnel capacity, and external factors. Each had its corresponding subthemes, such as infrastructure, human resources, referrals, and local government support, respectively. Factors and/or barriers to each subtheme were identified during the discussions. The study provided important insight on the factors influencing BEmONC utilization. Focal points recognized may be used by policy makers and key stakeholders to allow optimal provision of BEmONC services.

Abstract

The global COVID-19 pandemic has raised the risk of malnutrition in children, particularly those under the age of five, including stunting. Stunting is common in low-income regions, when families cannot afford nutritious meals. Certain types of food may not be available or cheap for some families during the COVID-19 epidemic. Stunting may become more common as a result of changes in family socioeconomic circumstances, personal cleanliness, and environmental sanitation during the pandemic. This study is to determine the effect of socioeconomic factors and hygiene sanitation during COVID-19 pandemic on the incidence of stunting in coastal areas. This type of research was analytical survey with cross sectional approach. The total sample was 3886 families who had children had toddlers aged 0-59 months in the coastal areas in Surabaya City, Indonesia. The instrument in this study was filling out a questionnaire using Google Form on socioeconomic and hygiene sanitation factors to determine the incidence of stunting. Socioeconomic determinant which impacted stunting was family income. While whole hygiene and sanitation determinants have significant impact to stunting by chi square test (pvalue=0,002). Highest odds ratio from logistic regression was 15,4 higher between other socioeconomic determinants. Whereas the hygiene and sanitation factor which has the highest impact was hand-washing habit with odds ratio 75,3. Hand-washing habit has significance impact which was proved by chi square test (pvalue=0,000). Low family income, hand-washing habits, clean water sources, sewer access, waste management, and healthy latrine have significant impact to malnutrition, especially stunting.

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is an acute febrile disease caused by four serotypes of dengue virus (DENV) and transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito. This article aims to analyze monthly trends in cases and climates as well as spatial analysis and autocorrelation in 52 urban villages of Banjarmasin City. Laboratory-confirmed dengue cases from 2016 to 2020 were analyzed for trends in malaria cases. Decomposition analysis was performed to assess seasonality. The annual spatial grouping of incidents, identified by Moran's I. The Result shows the annual dengue incidence fell significantly to 72% in 2017 and lasted until 2020. Dengue infection is more common in men with an age range of 15-64 years. The monthly dengue season is highest from January to May along with increased rainfall. The high incidence is spatially clustered which is identified in the east and borders neighboring districts, especially 6 urban villages. A trend and spatially explicit decision support system are needed to support surveillance and control programs in identified high-risk areas to succeed in dengue eradication goals.

Abstract

Background: With changing demography, developing countries will be outnumbered by the elderly and their associated chronic diseases. The geriatric population is at increased risk of malnutrition with multifactorial factors, especially Depression. The current study aims to explore potential linkages between malnutrition and depression in the geriatric population.Method: A cross-sectional study was planned at Tertiary healthcare facilities at Jodhpur, Western Rajasthan, India from April to June 2018. After consent from 310 elderly patients attending OPD, a pre-tested questionnaire was directed to record socio-demographic data. Assessment of Malnutrition status using Mini Nutritional Assessment, Depression using Geriatric Depression Scale, Physical frailty using Activities of Daily Living and Instrumental Activities of Daily Living was done. Chi-square, Fischer test, and Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare nominal data as counts and percentage. The mean and standard deviation were used to characterize continuous data. Multiple logistic regression was used to compute the corrected ODDs ratio. Significant was defined as a p-value of less than 0.05.Results: Out of 310 elderly, 192 (61.9%) participants on the MNA scale were categorized as having poor nutrition and 99 (31.9%) were suffering from depression. The elderly at risk of malnutrition among depressed was 75.8 % (n=99) with preponderance for females, and minor disabilities. Multivariate analysis suggested an association of lower socioeconomic status and rural residence in the elderly.Conclusion: Nutritional deficit and depression are interrelated. Depression and malnutrition are linked in a destructive cycle but the causality remains elusive. This synergy could be detrimental to survival.Keywords: Malnutrition, Depression, Aged, Geriatric, Elderly, Frailty, Nutrition Disorders, Chronic disease, Tertiary healthcare, India.

Abstract

Pre-pandemic studies had established that human resilience is mainly based on the social feedback that enables the formation of one’s perceived social support. In the Malaysian context, the enforcement of the movement control order (MCO) amidst the pandemic altered the social interaction pattern. The shift had involved more dependence on online communication (i.e., social media). Therefore, the way perceived social support (PSS) plays its role in predicting resilience could have been affected. Due to the reason mentioned above and the reports that Malaysians tend to increase their levels of spirituality during the MCO, we hypothesized that the sense of being empowered fully mediates the contribution of PSS on resilience while moderated by the levels of spirituality. Four hundred and five adults who reside in Malaysia during the MCO 2 were recruited to respond to scales of perceived social support, spirituality, empowerment, and resilience through the online survey. Our results suggested that the sense of empowerment significantly and fully mediated the relationship between PSS and resilience among individuals with low and moderate levels of spirituality. Scope, limitations, implications, and suggestions were also discussed at the end of this paper.

Abstract

SARS CoV-2 infection results in hyperinflammatory responses through the activation of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines. Colchicine is an anti-inflammatory drug that reduces superoxide production, TNF-a activation, and neutrophil chemotaxis. This study aims to determine the effect of adjuvant colchicine on mortality in COVID-19 patients. Systematic literature searching was conducted on PubMed, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, and medRxiv with keywords colchicine, Coronavirus Disease, COVID-19, SARS CoV-2, and mortality. Five randomized controlled studies with 15.779 patients were included. There was no significant difference between colchicine group and standard group (OR 1.00 [95% CI 0.91-1.09], p=0.94), Invasive mechanical ventilation necessity also did not show significant difference (OR 0.99 [95% CI 0.83-1.17 p=0.88). There was no significant difference in the incidence of cardiovascular disease (OR 1.11 [95% CI 0.50-2.46], p = 0.79), also the incidence of pneumonia was lower in colchicine group (OR 0.68 [95% CI 0.49-0.93], p=0.02), while the incidence of gastrointestinal complaints was higher in colchicine group (OR 2.09 [95% CI 1.84-2.37], p<0.00001). Colchicine as COVID-19 adjuvant therapy did not significantly reduce mortality, the need for invasive mechanical ventilation, and the incidence of cardiovascular disease. Furthermore, the colchicine group had lower pneumonia incidence and higher gastrointestinal complaints incidence.

Abstract

Adolescent girls can experience puberty and[a1]  menstruation in their school environment, especially when they decide to study in a boarding school for girls. Schools must provide support for menstrual hygiene therefore adolescent girls can remain productive in their education. The study aims to describe the adolescent perception of informational and instrumental support related to menstruation. The descriptive study was conducted at a single institution-boarding school for girls- in East Java, Indonesia. 236 students in junior high school were asked to fill out a questionnaire. Almost all adolescents had received information about menstruation before they experienced menstruation. Absenteeism due to menstruation was experienced by 35 students with 1-2 days of absence. In terms of informational support, more than 50% of students received information related to menstruation from their teachers. The school did not provide materials on menstrual hygiene on the toilet walls that could be accessed by adolescents. In terms of instrumental support, most adolescents reported that clean water was available but soap for washing hands was not always available. Closed trash cans and access to a sanitary pad are available. According to most of the adolescents, the latrines in their school were easy to clean, but there were still around 10% who stated that the latrines were difficult to clean. Schools need to provide correct information about reproductive health through collaboration with the health office and health education institutions and ensure that facilities for menstrual hygiene are available and can be used by students properly.

Abstract

Indonesia has the fourth highest population of older people in the world, with Yogyakarta Province having the highest percentage of older people in Indonesia. There is a need to ensure the well-being of older people. This study aimed to compare the well-being and health of older people living in urban and rural areas in Yogyakarta Province, Indonesia, as well as analyze the predictors of well-being. A total of 142 (80 rural and 62 urban) older people aged 60-75 years participated in this study. Well-being was assessed using the WHO-5 Well-Being Index. The factors measured included sociodemographic data (age, sex, educational level, living arrangements, and current employment status), physical function (mobility and balance), cognitive function, depression, independence, and attitude towards aging. Data of the two groups were compared using t-tests and chi-square analysis. Correlations with well-being were analyzed using univariate correlation and multivariate hierarchical regression. The urban group had slightly older age, higher education, lower mobility and balance, higher attitude scores, and higher well-being. Depression was a significant variable in well-being for both communities. Physical capacity was an important factor in urban populations, while well-being in rural areas was better predicted by independence and cognitive function.Keywords: aging, elderly, Indonesia, mental health, older people, physical health, quality of life, rural, urban, well-being

Abstract

Males and females tend to engage in Dating Violence (DV). This research aims to analyze the relationship between age, gender, and dating duration with the involvement of perpetrators of violence in dating. A cross-sectional study was used as the method. The sample size for this study was 351 adolescents who were selected using the purposive sampling technique. The sample inclusion criteria are active students, have a partner, and are willing to be respondents. Data were analyzed using a chi-square test with a 95% Confidence Interval. This study shows that younger adolescents are more likely to be involved in DV. Almost all females have acted as perpetrators of physical and psychological violence in dating. Females and males have equal opportunities to engage in dating violence. The dating duration is also predicted as one of the causes of adolescent involvement in violence during courtship. The dating duration is predicted to be more prone to being involved – being the perpetrator – in dating violence. Victims must have the courage to take a stand and stop the relationship if they experience violence, and they must be wise and selective in help-seeking.

Abstract

Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) has caused a public health risk in many developing countries, so understanding their incidence trend is needed to prepare an early warning prevention.The multi-year DHF trend analyses are necessary but have not been accomplished to this day in Indonesia. This study examined time trends using yearly data on the incidences of DHF for all provinces. Univariate forecasting model constructed on the data up to 2019 predicted the future trends in the disease's incidences up to 2022. At the same time, a trend analysis test was developed to explain the disease trend for all regions. The results per province showed a declining trend of DHF cases and TDC in Java Island (i.e., Jawa Barat, Jawa Tengah, DKI Jakarta, and Banten). Then, there was an increasing trend in the majority of regions outside of Java Island. For the CFR and IR, most provinces had decreasing trend except for Gorontalo, Kalimantan Utara, and Maluku. Overall, trend analysis showed a continually decreasing trend of DHF, TDC, CFR, and IR incidence over the past 16 years in Indonesia. The findings highlight the need for preventive policies for several provinces with the increasing trend of DHF incidences.
