Abstract

Background: Acute Otitis Media (OMA) or commonly known by the public as congek, is a condition where there is fluid in the middle ear with signs and symptoms of infection, and can be caused by various pathogens. AOM that gets the right treatment can interfere with daily activities and have an impact on permanent hearing loss. One of the efforts to prevent and overcome AOM cases is to know the risk factors. The purpose of this research is to find out what risk factors can cause AOM in elementary school children Methods: This study uses a quantitative method with a Case-Control approach and the sampling technique in the case group using Total Sampling and in the control group using Purposive Sampling. Respondents in this study were parents of elementary school students who were sampled in this study at SDN 1 Bobosan and SDN 4 Kranji with a total of 34 respondents, while the control group in this study used a ratio of 1:2. The variables used in this study were gender, immunization status, history of allergies, history of ARI, history of exclusive breastfeeding, parental income, number of family members in the house, exposure to cigarette smoke. Data collection was done by interview. Data were analyzed using Chi-Square test and continued with logistic regression test. The risk factor for AOM is known by calculating the odds ratio (OR) value. Results: Bivariate results showed a relationship between history of exclusive breastfeeding, parental income, and exposure to cigarette smoke with the incidence of AOM in elementary school children in Purwokerto. Multivariate results showed that there was an influence between cigarette smoke exposure (OR 7,043) and the incidence of AOM in elementary school children in Purwokerto Conclusions: Exposure to cigarette smoke is the most influential factor in the incidence of AOM in primary school children.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Malaria in pregnancy is a serious public health problem in Papua New Guinea (PNG), where both Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax are endemic. Malaria infection during pregnancy can cause maternal anemia, low birth weight, preterm delivery and congenital malaria, which can have serious consequences for the health and survival of mothers and infants. The aim of this literature review was to assess & summarize the current state of knowledge and practice on malaria epidemiology, prevention and treatment in pregnant women and their newborns in PNG, based on ten research papers published from 1986 to 2021. Subjects and Methods: This was a systematic review conducted by searching articles from Google Scholar database and Mendeley Elsevier database and PubMed. The inclusion criteria were namely articles published in 1900 to 2022 years, cross sectional design study, and using quantitative method. The study subjects were pregnant women who visited antenatal clinics with or without malaria, research locations in Papua New Guinea. The exclusion criteria were articles that did not available in full text and located not in Papua New Guinea. The articles were then critically appraised and synthesized according to five main themes: anemia and iron deficiency, submicroscopic malaria infections, placental malaria infection, and knowledge, attitudes and practices concerning malaria in pregnancy & congenital malaria. Results: A total of 10 papers were included in the review, covering various aspects of malaria epidemiology, prevention and treatment in pregnant women and their newborns in PNG. The main findings of the papers were: (1) anemia was very common and associated with splenomegaly, iron deficiency and malaria infection; (2) submicroscopic infections were common, but not associated with maternal anemia or low birth weight; (3) placental malaria infection was detected in 18.5% of placentas, and was associated with maternal anemia, low birth weight and preterm delivery; (4) there was a general awareness of the term “malaria”, but it was often confused with other illnesses or pregnancy symptoms; (5) congenital malaria infection was detected in 5.6% of newborns, mostly due to P. falciparum. Conclusion: This literature review provided useful evidence and recommendations for improving malaria prevention and control in pregnant women and their newborns in PNG, but also highlighted the need for more research and action to address the remaining challenges and gaps. The review concluded that malaria in pregnancy is a serious public health problem in PNG that requires comprehensive and integrated approaches to achieve its elimination by 2030.

Abstract

Toxocariasis and soil-transmitted helminthiases are the most prevalent parasitic zoonoses affecting humans and animals that cause environmental contamination. Toxocara and other soil-transmitted helminth eggs in animal feces are the primary sources of soil-transmitted helminthiases transmission in the environment particularly in urban areas. These parasite eggs constitute a source of infection for both definitive and paratenic hosts. Avian and rodents, that can be paratenic hosts of these parasites, are a significant source of food for cats in urban settings. Stray cats and dogs also consume leftover food or receive frequent feedings from locals that increases the chance of acquiring soil-transmitted helminth infections. Despite the risks that these soil-transmitted helminths have, studies and information regarding their zoonotic potential is very limited to date. This study aimed to determine the relationship between cat feces and the environmental contamination of residential soils with Toxocara cati and other soil-transmitted helminth eggs. A total of 50 samples were collected in selected urban residences in Malate, Manila. Stool samples were processed using Formol-Ether Concentration Technique while optimized sugar flotation technique was used for the soil samples then both were subjected to microscopy. The overall infection rate was 76% and the contamination rate was 52%. Toxocara cati was the most prevalent zoonotic parasite identified in 48% of stool and 44% of soil samples followed by Ascaris spp. with 32% in stools and 16% in soil samples. Trichuris spp. with 24% and hookworm with 16% were also detected in stool samples but were absent in soil samples. The presence of Toxocara cati and Ascaris spp. eggs in feces and their environmental contamination might be accounted to their durable and highly resistant eggs as well as the as the Philippines as a tropical country which may induce optimal conditions for Toxocara spp. and other soil-transmitted helminth eggs’ development and survival.

Abstract

Background: The pre-emptive use of antiretroviral drugs, known as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), reduces the risk of contracting HIV if exposed to the virus. The aim of this study was to assess the acceptance of PrEP among MSM and TGW in Malaysia. Methods: Respondent-driven sampling (RDS) method was used to conduct the IBBS survey between July and December 2022. Results: Overall, 957 MSM and 504 TGW participated in the study. A total of 78.6% of MSM and 49.4% of TGW had heard about PrEP. A higher percentage of MSM (11.8%) reported using PrEP in the past 12 months, compared to 8.0% TGW. Among respondents, more MSM (57.6%) were interested in taking PrEP in the future than TGW (29.3%). Most respondents (72.5% MSM and 94.0% TGW) prefer condom over PrEP as HIV prevention. Conclusion: In Malaysia, MSM and TGW still have a low level of acceptance for PrEP. Thus, more initiatives are needed to raise awareness about taking PrEP as a preventive measure.

Abstract

Community empowerment is one strategy to help control health problems in society. Leveraging community participation to be involved in community empowerment in the health sector is not only the domain of the health sector's duties. This effort can be carried out if there is involvement of cross-sectoral roles. One of the cross-sectoral sectors that is a dynamist for community empowerment is the involvement of FKD/FKK which consists of community elements from the village area concerned. Increasing coordination between health sectors, both across programs within the Puskesmas itself, and with cross-sectors outside the Puskesmas such as sub-districts, villages/kelurahan, village midwives and FKD/FKK, as well as the business world needs to be carried out continuously and sustainably in alleviating health problems to improve degree of public health.
