Abstract

Job stress can be defined as a dangerous physical and emotional response that occurs when work requirements are not matched with our own ability, resources, or needs of the workers. Job stress needs special attention by the company because it relates a worker individual’s health and affects operational continuity of the company’s production. The risk factors as the cause of job stress on female and male workers in PT. X are related to the characteristics and the perceptions of a work environment. The purpose of this research is to examine the individual characteristics and perceptions of the working environment that affects the incidence of job stress on female and male workers. This type of research is observational by designing cross-sectional research with the number of respondents as many as 50 people. The independent variables in this study included age, education, employment, marital status, noise, lighting as well as temperature. Dependent variable was job stress on female and male workers in PT. X. Female workers at PT. X experienced 32% of job stress and 20% of male workers. The results of logistic regression analysis obtains a significant influence of working time with job stress (P=0.027) as well as noise with job stress (P=0.017) on female workers. Male workers are significant to the job stress namely age (P=0.011), working period (P=0.030) as well as lighting (P=0.005). Advice for job-stress workers to take a leave, using personal protective equipment to reduce the risk of working environment. The company provides leave permits for workers and periodically performs work rotation.

Abstract

Human beings have certain uniqueness in their voices that helps determine their individuality. The most important characteristic of voice is the Pitch. The average vocal range for masculine voice ranges from 90- 150 Hz and for feminine voice, it ranges from 190-240 Hz. This pitch is decided by the development of the vocal tract during puberty by the effect of testosterone hormone i.e. Longer the tract, lower the pitch and vice versa. However, for people belonging to the intersex community, the low production of testosterone causes the vocal tract to develop differently than males and females. Because of this reason, their pitch has its own individual range and hoarseness of quality. This study was aimed to evaluate the difference in intersex population voice characteristics as compared to normal adult males and females. It was found that intersex voice has a distinctive Pitch range of 150-190 Hz with the mean frequency being 167 Hz. It was also discovered that due the peculiar dialect practiced by the intersex community, especially in the western part of the Indian subcontinent, there is a noticeable difference in the time duration for pronouncing various vowels from the time duration taken by males and females to pronounce the same vowels.

Abstract

Background: Estimating the timing of skeletal injury accurately is of great importance in forensic cases and has a significant bearing on the judicial process (related to abused children). This work aimed to assess dating of long bone healing in fractures occurring to children aged from 1 to 18 years through using plain radiography (X-Ray) which can determine 6 features of fracture healing process that are especially important in alleged cases of child abuse. The most commonly affected ages were “1-6” years presenting 68%. Males were the majority of cases (56%). The illustrated data of each feature of healing (6 features of fracture healing) form a prototype timetable of fracture healing. These data suggest that fractures with soft-tissue swelling alone are acute fracture (< 1 week old). Fractures with periosteal reaction alone are likely to be recent fracture (between 8 days and 3 weeks old). Once Remodelling, bridging & hard callus fractures detected then old fracture is expected (more than 6 weeks old).

Abstract

The diabetics have risk of pulmonary tuberculosis It caused by lacking of immune system and malnutrition, eventhough the diabetics’ nutritional status commonly is normal or overweight. This research aimed to analyze risk of nutritional status and blood sugar to patients of diabetes mellitus with pulmonary tuberculosis. The study was observational analytic with case control design. There were 20 samples in each case and control located in Sawahan Sub-district, Surabaya. The data collection used questionnaire and medical record of participants from the community health care. The data was analysed using Pearson test correlation and odd ratio. The result showed no correlation between body mass index and blood sugar of both random (p=0.138) and fasting (p=0.166). The oberweight diabetics are much more likely to get pulmonary tuberculosis 1.3 times compared to normal diabetics (95% CI= 0.313<OR<5.393), while the odd ratio of pulmonary tuberculosis in underweight diabetics is estimated to be 1.2 times compared to diabetics who are normal (95% CI= 0,121<OR<11,865). The diabetics who have random blood sugar level of ?200 mg/dL are 0.46 times to have pulmonary tuberculosis compared to blood sugar level of <200 mg/dL (95% CI=0.111<OR<1.94). The diabetics who have fasting blood sugar level of ?126 mg/dL showed effect 2.43 times to be likely get pulmonary tuberculosis either they have <126 mg/dL 95% CI= 0.51<OR<11.51). There was no relationship between blood sugar level, nutritional status, and pulmonary tuberculosis on patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract

Introduction. Green Tobacco Sickness (GTS) is a disease in the working population that is still not widely disclosed. GTS characterized by the main symptoms of nausea, vomiting, dizziness, excessive sweating, and occurs when in contact with wet tobacco. This research purpose is to assess the factors associated with the incidence of GTS in tobacco farmers in Jember, Indonesia. Methods. The research design is case control. Research variables are occupational factors and individual factors. Data analysis using binner logistic regression. Result and Discussion. The results stated that the variable influencing the case of GTS in tobacco farmers was the work period OR = 2,944, (CI 1,127-7,693) smoking status OR = 18,083 (CI 6.815-47,984) dermatosis complaints OR = 3,876 (CI = 1,238-12,138) and nutritional status was assessed with a BMI, OR = 2.643 (CI = 1.038-6.733). Farmers with a working period of working 18 years have a risk of 2,944 times GTS compared to farmers with a work period of <18 years. Farmers with smoking status have a risk of 18,083 times GTS compared to non-smoking farmers. Farmers who have dermatoses have a risk of 1,355 times GTS compared to farmers who do not have complaints of dermatosis. Farmers with an abnormal (overweight) BMI have a risk of 2,643 times GTS compared to farmers with a normal BMI. Conclusion. Factors that influence the GTS are age, sex, smoking status, complaints of dermatosis, nutritional status, and years of service. The findings of this study suggest that integrated promotive and preventive measures from both agricultural owners and first-rate health care providers need in the form of providing self-help to reduce direct contact with wet tobacco, healthy living behavior without smoking and maintaining nutritional status.

Abstract

The right statistical test to find out the relationship between variables that have ordinal data scale is a spearman correlation test. Spearman correlation shows how strong the relationship and the direction of the relationship between variables. The increasing muscle complaints have a close relationship with smoking habits. The longer and the higher the frequency of people smoke, the smaller the lung capacity. It then results in a decrease in the lung ability to consume oxygen. It also causes one more easily tired when carrying out tasks that require exertion. In addition, complaints due to repetitive movements occur because the muscles continuously receive workload pressure without a chance for relaxation. This condition triggers the occurrence of nerve swelling which will cause pain in the musculoskeletal area. This is an observational study with a cross sectional design. The study used a total sampling population of 12 workers. Spearman correlation is used to examine the strength and direction of the relationship between the dependent variable, MSDs complaints, an ordinal data scale, with independent variables, smoking habits and repetitive movements. This study found that smoking habits and the level of complaints of MSDs in the shelf frame bending workers have fairly strong, positive and unidirectional relationship with correlation coefficient value of 0.357. It also found that repetitive movements and complaint levels MSDs have a positive and perfect relationship with the correlation coefficient value of 1,000.
