Abstract

Introduction: Recurrent tonsillitis imposes a substantial burden on adolescent health, leading to frequent school absences, reduced quality of life (QoL), and significant healthcare resource utilization. A spectrum of management strategies exists, including tonsillectomy (total or partial), various antibiotic regimens, and watchful waiting. However, a critical evidence gap persists regarding the age-specific efficacy, safety, and impact on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) for adolescents, as most research aggregates data across broader pediatric or adult populations without dedicated subgroup analysis. Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed, Google Scholar, Semantic Scholar, Springer, Wiley Online Library. Inclusion criteria targeted studies (meta-analyses, systematic reviews, randomized controlled trials) focusing on recurrent tonsillitis management, with relevant populations (including or overlapping with adolescents aged 10-19), a minimum 6-month follow-up, and reporting of clinical outcomes and/or PROs. From 306 screened sources, data were extracted from the 40 highest-scoring studies. A structured extraction template captured details on management strategies, participant demographics, clinical outcomes (e.g., sore throat frequency, infection rates), PROs (QoL, pain, satisfaction), safety profiles, and comparative effectiveness. Results: Tonsillectomy significantly reduces the frequency of sore throat episodes compared to medical management or watchful waiting, with incidence rate ratios (IRRs) of 0.70 in the first year and 0.54 in the second year post-intervention (Lock et al., 2010). The benefit is maximized with prompt surgery; intervention within 10 weeks of consultation prevented up to 8 sore throats over two years, whereas a 12-month delay reduced this benefit to preventing only 3.5 episodes (Paradise et al., 1984). Tonsillotomy (partial tonsillectomy) demonstrated non-inferiority to total tonsillectomy in controlling infections over a 5-year follow-up but was associated with a significantly lower risk of postoperative haemorrhage (1.6% vs. 5.4%) (Kisser et al., 2024). For medical management, antibiotic prophylaxis with clindamycin and amoxicillin/clavulanate proved superior to penicillin in eradicating Group A Beta-Haemolytic Streptococcus (GABHS) and preventing recurrence, attributable to their stability against beta-lactamase-producing tonsillar flora (Brook, 1989; Asensi et al., 1999). Azithromycin prophylaxis showed comparable long-term (5-year) outcomes to tonsillectomy in moderately affected patients (Diaa El Din El Hennawi & Ahmed, 2016). PROs, measured using validated instruments like the PedsQL and Glasgow Benefit Inventory (GBI), consistently showed improvement following both effective surgical and medical interventions (Kisser et al., 2024; Diaa El Din El Hennawi & Ahmed, 2016). Surgical morbidity, primarily haemorrhage, occurs in 2-7% of cases, with rare mortality (Morad et al., 2017). Discussion: The synthesis indicates that management efficacy is context-dependent. Tonsillectomy is most beneficial for severely affected patients meeting stringent criteria (e.g., Paradise criteria) and when performed expediently. The apparent equivalence between surgery and medical management in some studies can be explained by spontaneous symptom resolution over time in control groups, variable baseline disease severity among study populations, and differences in follow-up duration. For adolescents with contraindications to surgery or moderate disease, medical prophylaxis with beta-lactamase-stable antibiotics or azithromycin is a viable alternative. Surgical technique selection involves trade-offs: tonsillotomy minimizes bleeding risk, intracapsular cobaltion reduces late postoperative pain, and laser/cobaltion techniques improve operative efficiency. A significant limitation is the paucity of studies performing dedicated adolescent subgroup analysis, necessitating extrapolation from broader pediatric data. Conclusion: Tonsillectomy remains a highly effective intervention for severe, recurrent tonsillitis in adolescents, especially when performed without undue delay. Tonsillotomy offers a safer surgical alternative with equivalent long-term infection control. Medical management, particularly with clindamycin, amoxicillin/clavulanate, or azithromycin prophylaxis, represents a valid non-surgical strategy for appropriate candidates. Future research must prioritize prospective studies with age-stratified analyses, longer-term follow-up comparing modern techniques, and standardized assessment of PROs specifically in the adolescent demographic to optimize age-tailored clinical guidelines.

Abstract

Occupational accidents are unintended and unforeseen events, not caused by deliberate actions, which may result in losses in terms of time, property, and even human life. Behaviors associated with occupational accidents among farmers include inadequate use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), non-compliance with safety procedures, errors in operating tools and machinery, lack of concentration, and negligence in following safety instructions for products such as pesticides. This study aims to examine the relationship between behavior (knowledge, attitudes, and practices) and occupational accidents among farmers in West Kotamobagu District. This research employed an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach. The study was conducted in West Kotamobagu District with a total population of 946 farmers. A sample of 90 farmers was selected using the Simple Random Sampling technique. Data analysis was carried out using the Chi-Square test. The findings revealed that knowledge (p = 0.000), attitude (p = 0.017), and practice (p = 0.007) were significantly associated with occupational accidents among farmers in West Kotamobagu District. Poor knowledge regarding occupational health and safety (OHS) and agricultural hazards, negative attitudes toward PPE usage, and undisciplined practices in its application were closely linked to the high incidence of occupational accidents among farmers. Adequate knowledge and awareness positively influence the adoption of safe behaviors, such as the proper and consistent use of complete PPE, thereby reducing the risk of occupational accidents.

Abstract

The coverage of active KB participants has a target based on the Estimated Community Demand (PPM), so each year it is expected that the achievements will meet or exceed the target. The problem lies in the significant disparity in the coverage rates of new family planning participants, based on the 2023 data on the achievements of new participants from government and private sectors, the districts with the lowest achievements of new KB participants were Patrang (7.22%), Sukorambi (8.41%), Balung (9.98%), Arjasa (12.87%), Mayang (20.20%), Jelbuk (27.87%), Silo (28.87%), and Umbul Sari District (29.58%). The districts with the highest achievements were Sukowono (719.27%), Wuluhan (694.80%), Tempurejo (644.23%), and Rambipuji (596.35%). The purpose of this study was to analyze organizational factors associated with the performance of KB Counselor. This study employed a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. The independent variables were age, years of service, perception of rewards, work motivation, and leadership, while the dependent variable was the performance of KB Counselor. Data analysis included univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analyses using logistic regression. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between work motivation (p-value = 0.045) and leadership (p-value = 0.000) with the performance of KB Counselor, while no significant relationship was found between age (p-value = 0.405), years of service (p-value = 0.513), and perception of rewards (p-value = 1.000) with performance. The most dominant variable associated with KB Counselor performance was leadership, with an OR = 11.2 (95% CI = 2.2–56.2).

Abstract

Pemberian Air Susu Ibu (ASI) eksklusif selama enam bulan pertama sangat penting untuk pertumbuhan, kekebalan, dan perlindungan bayi dari infeksi, namun cakupannya di beberapa wilayah Indonesia, termasuk Puskesmas Bonto Bangun, Kabupaten Bulukumba, masih belum optimal karena pengaruh faktor sosial dan budaya. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis peran Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) dan Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) dalam perilaku pemberian ASI eksklusif pada ibu bayi tahun 2025. Metode yang digunakan adalah kuantitatif dengan desain cross-sectional pada 159 ibu, menggunakan kuesioner berbasis konstruk TPB dan TRA, serta dianalisis dengan uji Chi-Square. Hasil menunjukkan mayoritas ibu memiliki sikap, keyakinan, persepsi kontrol, dan niat positif terhadap ASI eksklusif; dukungan suami menjadi faktor utama (71,1%), sementara tradisi budaya menjadi hambatan bagi sebagian kecil (11,3%). Analisis statistik menunjukkan hubungan signifikan antara semua konstruk TPB dan TRA dengan perilaku ASI eksklusif (p < 0,05). Kesimpulannya, TPB dan TRA efektif menjelaskan perilaku ASI eksklusif, dan intervensi promotif yang sensitif terhadap budaya serta memperkuat dukungan sosial dan keyakinan ibu diperlukan untuk meningkatkan cakupan ASI eksklusif.

Abstract

Background: Continuity of Care (CoC) is a midwifery care approach emphasizing continuous and interpersonal relationships between health providers and women throughout pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum, and family planning periods. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the impact of CoC implementation by midwifery students on women’s trust in health services. Methods: The research involved 30 women who received CoC care from students of the Midwifery Professional Program, Faculty of Medicine, Andalas University. Data were collected through observation of CoC implementation and a validated trust questionnaire covering four dimensions: students’ competence, interaction comfort, confidentiality, and readiness to receive care. Results: Statistical analysis using a paired t-test showed a significant increase in women’s trust scores after receiving CoC (mean score increased from 3.2 to 4.4; p < 0.05). Linear regression analysis indicated that the quality of CoC implementation significantly influenced women’s trust levels (R² = 0.52). Conclusion: These findings demonstrate that CoC provided by midwifery students not only enhances the quality of care but also strengthens the trust relationship between women and health providers. The results are expected to contribute to the development of midwifery education curricula emphasizing continuity of care and empathy in clinical practice.

Abstract

Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious infectious disease that remains a serious public health challenge in Indonesia, including in the Juntinyuat Community Health Center (UPTD) in Indramayu Regency. Smoking is a risk factor for pulmonary TB. Exposure to cigarette smoke can disrupt respiratory function and weaken lung immunity, making it easier for Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria to enter and grow. This study is a quantitative study with an observational analytical design using a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique used was total sampling with 56 respondents. Based on an analysis of 56 respondents, a statistically significant relationship was found between smoking behavior and the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis, with a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05). Statistically, it can be concluded that smoking has a significant relationship to incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis. Health workers are expected to provide ongoing education about the dangers of smoking, particularly regarding its impact on increasing the risk of pulmonary tuberculosis in the community.

Abstract

Demam berdarah dengue merupakan penyakit yang masih menjadi masalah kesehatan masyarakat global, dengan Aedes aegypti sebagai vektor utamanya. Penggunaan insektisida kimia secara terus-menerus menimbulkan resistensi dan dampak lingkungan, sehingga diperlukan alternatif pengendalian vektor yang lebih ramah lingkungan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efektivitas perasan daun kemangi (Ocimum sanctum) dan daun kersen (Muntingia calabura) pada berbagai konsentrasi terhadap mortalitas larva Aedes aegypti. Penelitian menggunakan rancangan eksperimental laboratorik dengan empat perlakuan (25%, 50%, 75%, dan kontrol negatif) yang diulang tiga kali, masing-masing terdiri atas 20 larva instar III. Pengamatan dilakukan pada jam ke-6, 12, 18, dan 24, kemudian data dianalisis menggunakan uji ANOVA dan uji lanjut Tukey HSD pada taraf signifikansi 5%. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perasan daun kemangi lebih efektif dibandingkan daun kersen dalam menyebabkan kematian larva Aedes aegypti. Pada konsentrasi 75%, kemangi mencapai tingkat mortalitas sebesar 85% (kategori efektif), sedangkan kersen hanya mencapai 73% (kategori cukup efektif). Analisis statistik menunjukkan bahwa perbedaan konsentrasi perasan daun kemangi tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap mortalitas larva (ρ=0,350; p>0,05), sementara pada daun kersen terdapat pengaruh yang signifikan (ρ=0,046; p<0,05), terutama antara konsentrasi 25% dan 75%. Disimpulkan bahwa perasan daun kemangi memiliki efektivitas larvasida yang lebih tinggi, namun pengaruh konsentrasi lebih nyata pada daun kersen. Disarankan bagi peneliti selanjutnya untuk menggunakan metode ekstraksi yang lebih optimal, menambah variasi waktu paparan, serta menguji dampak terhadap organisme non-target sebelum diterapkan di lapangan.
