Abstract

Hand hygiene is one of the important factors that determine a person's health status. Hands are easily contaminated by microbes from the environment such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi through direct contact. Hand sanitizer is a type of media that can be used to clean hands from disease-causing microbes other than soap. Hand sanitizers are widely used by the community because they are considered more practical to use. This study aims to determine the anti-fungal activity of the hand sanitizer recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) against Candida albicans. Anti-fungal activity was tested using the well diffusion method. The results showed that the higher the concentration of the hand sanitizer, the bigger the inhibition zone formed. The statistical test results obtained a significance value of p <0.05 at the variation of the concentration of hand sanitizer 50%, 75%, 100%, and treatment control. These results indicate that there is a significant difference between the hand sanitizer treatment and control of the inhibition zone formation in C. albicans. The WHO recommended hand sanitizer has medium inhibitory power against C. albicans bacteria.

Abstract

Background: Individual behavior in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic is characterized by disruptions or shifts in lifestyle. Covid-19 is more likely to cause extreme symptoms or serious problems in people with some medical conditions (chronic noncommunicable diseases). Hypertension is a non-communicable chronic condition induced by an unhealthy lifestyle. According to data from the national covid-19 distribution map, hypertension is the comorbid condition with the highest number of covid-19 patients. Methods: This study uses a descriptive analysis with a non-experimental framework as its process (cross-sectional). According to the study's goals, research participants used secondary data from the Covid-19 Indonesia distribution map in 2020/2021. Results: The number of confirmed cases is about 10,000 residents in July 2020, and it will continue to rise until May 2021, when it will reach 1,400,000 cases. Hypertension, which accounts for 50.1 percent of covid-19 cases, is one of the most common comorbidities. Diabetes mellitus affects 36.6 percent of people, the heart 17.2 percent, and 10 percent of pregnant women. Lung and kidney disease affect about 5% of people, other respiratory diseases affect 2.2 percent, and cancer, immune disorders, asthma, liver, and tuberculosis affect less than 2% of people. Conclusion: Patients with hypertension should be mindful of the risk of contracting Covid-19. Because of the extent of the losses incurred by the Covid-19 pandemic, different parties must work together to avoid and manage it.

Abstract

Background Dietary diversity is an indicator of the quality of food intake which is very important to meet the nutritional needs of school-age children to support children's growth and physical development. School-age children (6-12 years) are a very strategic target for health coaching to prepare the next generation who are healthy, independent, productive, qualified, resilient, and able to compete globally. Improving nutrition for primary school children is a strategic step in particular because its impact is directly related to quality human resources (HR) who are ready to compete. Direct factors (diet and infectious diseases) and indirect factors (economic status, maternal knowledge, and several family members) influence the nutritional adequacy of school-age children. Objectives This study aims to look at the relationship between maternal knowledge about nutrition and health, economic status, and the number of family members on food diversity in primary school children in rural and urban areas of Banyumas Regency during the Covid-19 pandemic. Methods This study used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design involving 58 elementary school students in Banyumas Regency. Data were collected using an online questionnaire on google form to minimize the transmission of the covid-19 virus outbreak between researchers and students who were respondents of this study. Researchers have provided video tutorials on how to fill out a google form questionnaire to avoid confusion that results in biased data provided. Results The results of this study indicate that most of the mothers' knowledge is still lacking about nutrition and health (63.8%) this can be influenced by the education level of mothers who graduated from high school (43.1%) and most of the mothers are not working or as pure housewives ( 81.1%). knowledge influences the diversity of children's diets (0.44%), economic status (0.009%), and the number of family members (0.26%). Conclusions There is a relationship between the economic status of parents and the diversity of food for school-age children compared to the level of knowledge of the mother and the number of family members Keywords: diversity of food, elementary school children, physical activity

Abstract

Helminthiasis are still a health problem in Indonesia. Although not deadly, helminth infections will slowly affect children's health and productivity through a decrease in nutritional status. The chronic clinical course and tend to be asymptomatic causes helminthiasis to be classified as a neglected tropical disease. Research on the epidemiology of helminthiasis has been carried out in several regions in Indonesia. However, there has not been a comprehensive review to see the epidemiology aspects of helminthiasis. This article will discuss in detail how helminth infections influence the host to increase the incidence of malnutrition and its impact on children's health. Although this is not an emergency and a condition, the risk factors will lead the child to a state of chronic helminthiasis and transmission to other children which will have a negative impact on public health.

Abstract

The problem of disease due to dengue virus infection is still a health concern, especially in tropical countries. One of the efforts made is to explore vegetable insecticides as larvicides for dengue vectors, the Aedes aegypti mosquito. Garlic (Allium sativum. L) is believed to be able to repel or inhibit and even kill the larvae of the Aedes aegypti mosquito because garlic has a strong aroma. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of garlic extract as a larvicide of Aedes aegypti. The research method used is a quasi-experimental with a post test only control group design. The larvae of Aedes aegypti used were instar I-IV larvae which were divided into treatment groups and control groups. In the treatment group, Aedes aegypti larvae were given garlic extract with 5 concentrations, namely 0.10% (0.2 mL extract + 200 mL water), 0.20% (0.4 mL extract + 200 mL water), 0.30% (0.6 mL extract + 200 mL water), 0.40% (0.8 mL extract + 200 mL water) and 0.50% (1 mL extract + 200 mL water), while the control group was only given 200 mL mineral water. The results of observing the effectiveness of garlic extract as Aedes aegypti larvicides in all instars showed that the higher the concentration of garlic extract, the more Aedes aegypti larvae died, and the higher the larval instar the higher the concentration needed to kill it. . In the first instar larvae, the LC50 is 0.24%, the second instar is 0.15%, the third instar is 0.16% and the fourth instar is 0.24%, so the higher the instar, the higher the LC50 or concentration needed to kill 50% of the larvae. Key words : larvacide, Aedes aegypti, Allium sativum

Abstract

One of the strategies to curb the Covid-19 spread was administering the Covid-19 vaccine as it remains the most effective means to achieve control of the pandemic. As mandated by Minister of Health Decree Number 10/2021, Pangandaran District has to conduct Covid-19 vaccination to 341.216 individuals as the target population. Per July 26th, the Covid-19 vaccination coverage is still below 10% of target with Parigi, Sidamulih, and Mangunjaya Subdistricts as subdistricts with the lowest vaccination coverage. Vaccine hesitancy and misinformation present major barriers to achieving community coverage and immunity. This was a cross-sectional rapid survey conducted in August 2021, held in subdistrict Parigi, Sidamulih, and Mangunjaya of Pangandaran District, West Java Province. There was a total of 915 samples participated through an electronic questionnaire. Data were analyzed as univariate, and chi-square was used in bivariate analysis. There’s a significant relationship between the exposure of information about the Covid-19 vaccine with willingness to receive the vaccination
