Abstract

Background: UNICEF stated that in 2014, about 66% of children aged less than five years in lower-middle-income countries were stunted. Stunting is a predictor of poor quality of human resources and reduces a nation's productivity in the future. Stunting control in the Kulonprogo District is one of the priority districts in Indonesia. This study aimed to analyze the determinants of stunting in the Kulonprogo District. Methods: This research was conducted in Kuponprogo District. The population was children under five in Kulonprogo District. Analysis was done through a descriptive approach. Descriptive quantitative research was used by employing secondary data from the year 2013. Results: The prevalence of stunting among children under five in the Kulonprogo District was 11.12%, spread across all primary health centers (Puskesmas) in the Kulonprogo District. The three puskesmas with the highest prevalence rate were Puskesmas Girimulyo 2, Puskesmas Samigaluh 2, and Puskesmas Kalibawang. The analysis found that low-income families, maternal education, age at pregnancy, chronic energy deficiency during pregnancy, anemia during pregnancy, early initiation of breastfeeding, exclusive breastfeeding, and parenting mode are the determinant factors of stunting in the Kulonprogo District in 2019. Conclusion: Several determinants of stunting were found, namely low-income families, maternal education, age at pregnancy, chronic energy deficiency during pregnancy, anemia during pregnancy, early initiation of breastfeeding, exclusive breastfeeding, and parenting mode.

Abstract

Background: Milk promotes child growth; however, adulterated milk reduces nutritional value and exposes children to harmful chemicals. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the nutritional status of children aged 1–5 years living in the selected study area and test milk samples from the children's households for common adulterants. The study further aimed to explore the association between malnutrition and milk adulteration.Methods: We used a community-based cross-sectional study design conducted in the service area of a tertiary healthcare institute in Bangalore Rural District, Karnataka state, India. Systematic random sampling was used to recruit 180 children aged 1–5 years. Primary data was collected through interviews, anthropometry, and strip tests for milk adulteration. Statistical analysis consisted of descriptive analysis, Chi-square tests, odds ratios, and 95% confidence intervals.Results: Prevalence of underweight, stunting, wasting, and low Body Mass Index (BMI) was 13.33%, 38.33%, 15.0%, and 26.7%, respectively. General adulterants detected were neutralizers in 97 (53.9%) and maltodextrin in 90 (50%) samples. Higher proportions of stunting, underweight and low BMI were found in children drinking adulterated milk. Low BMI was significantly associated with joint family and lower maternal education.Conclusion: Our study found a high prevalence of malnutrition in children, particularly stunting. The study also detected widespread adulterants in milk and a potential association with malnutrition. The authors recommend further studies with a larger sample size to accurately delineate the relationship between milk adulteration and malnutrition.

Abstract

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a common chronic disease with multiple complications contributing to the global healthcare burden. Untreated T2DM causes multiple organs and systemic injury, including heart, kidney, nerve, and blood vessels, which impairs quality of life and increases mortality rates caused by complications of diabetes. Some of these complications play a clear role in increasing diabetes mortality. The objective of this study was to determine the differences in blood glucose level and lipid profile among T2DM patients with hypertension and without hypertension. Method: This research was a cross-sectional analytic study. Research subjects were taken using a purposive sampling technique with inclusion and exclusion criteria among the 40 T2DM patients in the Chronic Disease Management Program called Prolanis at Bambanglipuro Health Centre. The inclusion criteria were T2DM patients who were members of Prolanis. The exclusion criteria were patients with a history of complications such as heart disease, stroke, and cancer. Accordingly, in total, 32 T2DM patients were joining this study. We collected the total cholesterol, HDL, and LDL data and analyzed it  with an independent T-test. The fasting blood glucose level, HbA1C, and triglyceride data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results: There were differences in LDL levels (p=0.005) in T2DM patients with hypertension and without hypertension. Meanwhile, there was no difference in fasting blood glucose among T2DM patients with hypertension and without hypertension. Conclusion: There was a significant difference in LDL, and there were no significant differences in fasting blood glucose levels in T2DM patients with hypertension and without hypertension.

Abstract

The goal of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) means a situation in which all individuals and communities have access to health services, whenever and wherever they need them, without financial barriers to obtaining them. UHC covers a wide range of essential health services, from promotion, prevention, treatment, care, rehabilitation, and palliative care for patients with chronic diseases. On the other hand, the COVID-19 Pandemic is devastating national health systems in countries that have strived to provide UHC, hampering their efforts to fulfill the ethos of universal health coverage, which is to "leave no one behind." As mentioned in the World Economic Forum 2021, this issue is interesting because an estimated 400 million people worldwide lack access to essential health services. Approximately 100 million people fall into poverty each year due to not paying their health costs. This number has increased with COVID-19 and will continue to up as people lose their jobs, health insurance, and health spending rise due to COVID-19-related spending on testing, treatment, and vaccines.

Abstract

Background: Worm disease is an infectious disease that still becomes a public health problem in Indonesia. Worm can cause a decrease in health, nutrition, intelligence and productivity of the sufferers. Worms as parasitic animals do not only take nutrients in the intestines of children, but they also damage the intestinal wall so that they interfere the absorption of these nutrients, consequently, it will impact on the decreasing of one's nutritional status and cause other complex nutritional problems. Moyudan Health Center is a Community Health Center in Moyudan Sub-District Region which has the highest cases of helminthiasis (worm infection). Therefore, this study aims to determine the relationship between helminthiasis infection and nutritional status.Methods: This was an observational analytic study using a cross-sectional approach. The sample of this study were elementary school students in the work area of Moyudan Health Center with samples of 311 respondents. The sampling technique used by multistage random sampling is the selection of samples consisting of the smallest areas of an area. Faecal examination was carried out by using the direct method and nutritional status assessment was carried out by anthropometric method based on the anthropometric index Body Age Index per Age (BMI / U). Data were analyzed by Fisher's test.Results: The results showed that there were 8 respondents (2.57%) who were positively infected by worms, 28 respondents had underweight nutritional status (9.01%), and 54 respondents had a nutritional status of fat (17.36%). The results of the study showed no correlation between helminthiasis infection and nutritional status (p-value = 0.534).Conclusions: There is no relationship between helminthiasis and nutritional status in elementary school students in the Moyudan Community Health Center Working Area in Sleman Regency with a p-value of 0.534 so that it is concluded that helminthiasis infection does not provide any significant contribution to nutritional status even though cases of helminthiasis still occur in elementary school students. Therefore, it needs more attention from parents, schools and health facilities in dealing with worm problems.

Abstract

Background: Indonesia is experiencing a major health challenge, that is triple burden diseases (communicable diseases, non-communicable diseases, and reemerging diseases). One of the programs established by the government to face the threat is Healthy Lifestyle Community Movement (Gerakan Masyarakat Hidup Sehat or GERMAS). The declaration of the smoke-free area is one of the efforts of the Government on this movement aimed to have smoke-free homes to create a healthy city. However, the monitoring and evaluation of the program do not run well. The goal of this research is to provide a description and analysis of the implementation of the smoke-free area declaration program.Methods: This was qualitative research. The subjects or main informants of this study were the people in charge of the smoke-free area declaration program and the head of the clinic at Puskesmas Gondokusuman 2. The supporting informants in this study were the community declaring the program as well as the elite figures of the community involved in the declaration. The method of primary data collection was through in-depth interviews, observation, and review documentation. The implemented analysis technique was content analysis.Results: The inputs of the smoke-free area declaration program were measured from the human resources, fund, facilities, organization, information, and guidelines. Further, the process of the smoke-free area declaration was viewed from the community roles, community responses, and reports. However, there was a shortcoming of the process variable, i.e. the in-existence of written reports done by the head of the program. Furthermore, the output variables were observed from the commitments, impacts on society, and the comprehensiveness of the reports. Conclusions: Based on the analysis, the inputs of the program were considered as well. The outputs of the program were considered to be positive.

Abstract

Background: Diphtheria is considered as a neglected disease since it was successfully eliminated in many countries. However, there were several sporadic re-emergence cases of Diphtheria and the peak was outbreak in Indonesia in 2017.  This research was a descriptive study aimed to explore epidemiology of diphtheria by person, time and place in one of diphtheria endemic area.Methods: This was a descriptive study with cross sectional design in Purwakarta Regency, West Java, Indonesia in 2018. Several data were collected in this study such as diphtheria cases by age, time of occurrence, gender, place and immunization status. The data was collected from Purwakarta Health Office. It was the data from the year of 2015-2017. The data was analysed by using descriptive analysis with percentages displayed in graphs and tables.Results: This study reveals that Purwakarta regency is an endemic area of diphtheria with fluctuated cases since 2015-2017. More cases of diphtheria occurred from September to December in rainy season. More cases suffered by children in 5-9 years old, however, this disease also infected adult population. The area with high diphtheria cases in this study also areas with high population densities which is conducive for C diphteriae transmission. Low coverage of immunization is highlighted in the result of this study, which could explain why diphtheria cases occurred continuously in this area.Conclusions: High number of diphtherias in this area should be an awareness for local health officer to do an effective preventive effort such as increasing the coverage of vaccination. Furthermore, optimizing the role of religious and community leader should be made to support diphtheria vaccination programs.
