Abstract

Iron and calcium deficiencies remain a concern amongst working-age women in low to middle-income countries. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of nutritional intervention on the improvement of the iron status and calcium intake of this population. Non-pregnant workers at a company were divided into two groups. The intervention group (n=118) received nutritional intervention including nutritional education and an 8-week course of oral nutritional supplements (ONS). The control group (n=106) did not receive any intervention. Nutritional assessment, level of Hb concentration, serum iron, and ferritin were taken at baseline and after eight weeks. The results showed iron and calcium intake increased significantly in the intervention group. The effective intervention of serum iron was 33.3%. In conclusion, nutritional intervention such as nutritional education and ONS consumption is effective for improving iron status and calcium intake in working-age women.

Abstract

In Indonesia, dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) continues to be an issue. Although there have been fewer dengue infections in the past three years, many areas of Indonesia remain dengue endemic. Insecticide use is one DHF prevention and control method that has been used for a long time. Long-term usage of insecticides can cause the vector, Aedes aegypti, to develop resistance. Insecticide resistance to Aedes aegypti in Indonesia was the focus of this study's analysis of the literature review. A systematic review using keywords based on population, interest and context (PICo) was employed in the study strategy. The databases used to find the publications were ScienceDirect, ProQuest, PubMed, Google Scholar, and Garuda from 2018 to 2022. Hence, 40 papers out of the 6,429 total articles were relevant and should be reviewed and analyzed. According to an analysis of the paper, it was discovered that Aedes aegypti mosquitoes are resistant to insecticides of the pyrethroid and organophosphate classes in various parts of Indonesia. However, it was discovered that several regions were both tolerant of and vulnerable to pyrethroids and organophosphates. If insecticides are to be utilized intolerant and vulnerable locations, monitoring and evaluation of their usage must be done, and a strategy of varying insecticide kinds and dosages and boosting community empowerment toward mosquito nest elimination behaviour must be implemented.

Abstract

The family as one of system support for schizophrenia treatment in the primary care setting has been a challenge in integrating family services into mental health. This study aimed to review the urgent of family involvement during the treatment of schizophrenia in health mental services using the Family-Centered Care approach. A systematic review was performed using the population, intervention, comparison, outcome, study design (PICOS) framework within Scopus (27 articles), ProQuest (151 articles), Science Direct (93 articles), EBSCO (124 articles), and Springer (149 articles) published databases in the last five years using the keywords of “Family- Centered Care, nursing, AND Schizophreni*”. The articles were empirical quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-methods studies published within 2017- 2021 where study participants were clinically diagnosed with schizophrenia and intervention approaches were within the scope of family involvement. Twenty-four articles met the inclusion criteria for review. Evidence supports a professionally engaged relationship between patients, families, and providers with open knowledge exchange, communication, and collaboration. Family-centered care requires empathy, understanding, respect, and empowerment to choose, control decisions, and empower in the treatment of schizophrenia. This study concludes the importance of family involvement in the treatment of schizophrenia from the start. Health care providers help families through the admissions process.

Abstract

Nowadays, there are lots of hospitals both managed by the private and public sectors. It is a fact that patients have an excellent opportunity to choose the hospital they want to be treated in, which will lead to higher competition between hospitals. Hospitals must be ready to compete with public and private hospitals. The strategy is carried out as well as possible for the success of the services offered by the hospital. One that can be done is using the 7Ps marketing mix theory (product, price, place, promotion, people, physical evidence, and process), which aims to increase the number of visits to the hospital. This research is quantitative research, descriptive-analytic with a cross-sectional approach. The sample size in this study was 110 people, chosen from outpatients in the studied hospital. The sampling technique in this study used purposive sampling with criteria determined by the researcher. The analysis used in this study is multivariate analysis. In this study, it was found that all variables influence consumer decision-making. However, from the seven variables that have been tested, three variables greatly influence consumer decisions partially in using services in the studied hospital. These variables are promotion, process, and physical evidence.

Abstract

Job stress is the detrimental physical and emotional responses that might occur when there is conflict between the expectations of a job and an employee's ability to meet those needs. Workplace stress is a global primary risk factor for worker health and diminishes workers’ motivation and productivity. A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 133 randomly selected laboratory staff from both private and government sectors in Johor, Malaysia. Descriptive analysis was conducted to establish the relationship between stress scores and the work burden of laboratory staff. The results indicate that 74% of the respondents have more than eighty percent stress scores. Cross tab demonstrates that there is an association between total staff and average patient daily and overall stress score (p-value <0.01). Pearson correlation shows a positive correlation between workplace environment and overall stress scores (p-value <0.01). The research indicates that work stress is a prevalent issue among laboratory staff. The well-being of laboratory staff is strongly connected to organisational success. Consequently, lab Staff, particularly those working in busy laboratories, should be highly prioritised.

Abstract

The inability to control themselves causes adolescents to have low self- regulation and causes engage in risky sexual behavior which can cause serious problems such as sexually transmitted diseases, disability, and death. This study aims to develop a self-regulation model based on the theory of planned behavior to prevent risky sexual behavior in adolescents. Explanatory observation with a cross-sectional approach to 140 adolescents in four high schools/vocational schools selected using a convinience sampling. Data collection used questionnaires, focus group discussion (FGD), and expert discussions. Data analysis using partial least square. The development of a self-regulation model based on the theory of planned behavior toward preventing risky sexual behavior in adolescents has the best path, namely the path from background factors (X1) to subjective norms (X3) to personal regulation (X6) and behavioral self-regulation (Y1). The direct effect shows that intention (X4) has a direct effect on self-regulation (Y1). Intention is an important domain for forming a behavior through attitudes, subjective norms, and behavioral control so that self-regulation will be formed to prevent risky sexual behavior in adolescents. Adolescents should be given the training to improve self-regulation to be able to take action to prevent risky sexual behavior.

Abstract

COVID-19 vaccination began in Indonesia in January 2021, with a minimum target coverage of 70% of the population. The government has delivered four doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, but doses three and four have yet to meet the target. Public acceptance of the COVID-19 vaccination has varied due to the speed of the introduction and implementation of this vaccination. Meanwhile, basic information about the factor’s influencing acceptance has yet to be widely known. This study aimed to determine the relationship between sociodemographics and COVID-19 vaccine acceptance in Notoprajan, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. A cross-sectional study was used for this analytic survey. The population is 4,726 people, and the sample size is 355 people. People between the ages of 17 and 55 were eligible, as were those who had lived in Notoprajan, Ngampilan District, Yogyakarta, for at least three months. The data were analyzed using descriptive and bivariate analysis with a 95% confidence level (α=0.05) using the Chi-square statistical test. Among the six observed variables, namely age, gender, education, occupation, religion, and knowledge level, only sex significantly correlates with COVID-19 vaccine acceptance. This research indicates that to increase COVID-19 vaccination, related parties need to target women directly. This is because men received 1.47 times the COVID-19 vaccination from this study compared to women.

Abstract

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was a public health problem in Indonesia. The highest number of COVID-19 cases in Special Region of Yogyakarta in 2021 was in Bantul Regency. The epidemiological description based on the person, place, time, and risk factors for COVID-19 in Bantul Regency in 2021 has yet to be described. This study aimed to determine risk factors, person, place, and time characteristics associated with the incidence of COVID-19 in the Bantul Regency in 2021. This study employed a cross-sectional design with secondary data on COVID-19 cases in Bantul Regency in 2021. Furthermore, 80,322 samples were analyzed and confirmed COVID-19 was 53,506 cases (66.61%). The case fatality rate was 2.72%. The highest age positive for COVID-19 is <65 years (92.31%), 53.83% of cases were female, and the district of Banguntapan with the highest rate of COVID-19 (15.11%). The peak of cases occurred in July, 2021. There is a relationship between close contact, travel history, age, and gender with the incidence of COVID-19 (p<0.001). The most significant risk factors were close contact (OR=8.657), travel history (OR=3.034), gender (OR=1.147), and age (OR=0.889). Close contact has the most significant association with the incidence of COVID-19, followed by travel history and gender.

Abstract

To reduce the risk of contracting COVID-19 during the outbreak, the use of portable smart terminals (PST) among youths has increased significantly because youths prefer playing on their PST indoors. Hence, this article aims to study the impact of PST on youths’ sleep quality and the effect of walking on improving sleep quality during the COVID-19 pandemic. A survey was conducted on the daily walking steps, sleep quality, and the use of PST among 312 ordinary youths aged 18-25. The control group kept their original lifestyle, while the experimental group walked 10,000 steps a day for 30 days. This study found that 88% of the respondents used PST for more than four hours. Also, the detection rate of sleep disorders among youths accounted for 39% of the total respondents. Compared to the control group, the sleep duration and quality of youths in the exercise group significantly improved (p<0.05). In conclusion, youths spend more time on PST and less time on physical activities, which worsens their sleep quality. Thus, by appropriately increasing their daily steps, the adverse effects of PST can be reduced, and the sleep quality of youths can be improved.

Abstract

Melanin-producing cells are the origin of melanoma, the worst form of skin cancer (Melanocytes). If this cancer is not caught early, it might spread to other organs. With automated diagnostic technologies, clinicians and non- professionals may better diagnose diseases. Dermoscopic analysis, biopsy, and histological tests may be needed starting with a clinical assessment. Photo-based skin lesion categorization is challenging due to the fine-grained variability of skin lesions. We provide a more reliable melanoma detection model for each suspicious lesion in this paper. A set of characteristics characterizing a skin lesion's borders, texture, and coloursis used to educate convolutional neural networks. The deep learning models were generated using a standard dataset. To know the model's performance, consider the metrics like accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, Jaccard index and Dice coefficient. Transfer learning is used to categorize normal and diseased skin pictures automatically. This model-driven design helps doctors swiftly assess lesions.
