Abstract

Background: Community diagnosis is an activity to identify problems by collecting data in the community that can locate broad issues and cover various aspects of society. The emergence of health problems is not only caused by individual negligence but can also be caused by community ignorance due to a lack of correct information about a disease. The purpose of this study is to obtain an overview of the health problems in Tegaltandan hamlet, Banguntapan sub-district to determine problem priorities and obtain appropriate alternative solutions to overcome the priority problems that have been resolved. Method: This study used descriptive quantitative analysis by conducting interviews using a community diagnosis questionnaire. The analysis was used to prioritize health problems using the USG method and village community meetings. The sampling technique was purposive sampling with 132 samples obtained. Results: Ten major health problems in the research area that need attention are no organic trash collection center covered in homes, using spray-repellent, not used to wearing a helmet during riding, not sprinkling larvacide powder on the washed water dump as dengue prevention, not applying repellents as dengue prevention not using gloves while chopping ingredients with a knife for cooking, no props when moving heavy objects, not taking care of fish larvae eaters, hypertension and diabetes mellitus. After prioritizing using USG and village community meetings, they all agreed to decide diabetes mellitus as the main health problem in this area. Conclusion: Diabetes mellitus was considered a major problem at the study site that requires further intervention.

Abstract

Suicide is an incident that is a severe problem in society which is currently widespread. Suicide is the act of ending one's own life by using several techniques, such as hanging, making an incision in a blood vessel, or crashing into a moving vehicle such as a train or motorbike. Based on data from the World Health Organization (WHO), as many as 703,000 people committed suicide, with variations in suicide rates in various countries between 2 and 80 suicide deaths per 100,000 population. Men have a suicide rate that is up to 2.3 times higher than women. The majority of deaths due to suicide are more significant in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), up to more than 70%

Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic condition causing elevated blood glucose levels, leading to microvascular and macrovascular consequences. It is a leading cause of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Diabetes causes diabetic nephropathy, which is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease. The urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) is a clinically used tool to evaluate albuminuria and prevent the progression of diabetic nephropathy. ACR measurements are predictive markers for renal outcomes, cardiovascular outcomes, and mortality in diabetics. Microalbuminuria, a condition characterized by 30 to 300 mg/g in spot urine, is an independent predictor of coronary artery disease, cardiovascular disease, and all-cause mortality. This systematic review aimed to understand the role of ACR (albumin creatinine ratio) urine in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus based on the published article. Method: The systematic review followed Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and used databases ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Sage Journal to search for articles on urinary albumin creatinine ratio in type 2 diabetes mellitus. The search used keyword, inclusion and exclusion criteria to screen the article. 10 articles met our criteria and were included in this research. Results: ACR (albumin creatinine ratio) levels are linked to cardiovascular risk in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM), and high UACR (urinary albumin creatinine ratio levels are linked to an increased risk of CKD (chronic kidney diseases). The patient's diabetes duration also impacts ACR levels. The KDI is a composite of eGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate) and ACR risk variables with a clear linear relationship with all three outcomes. It may aid in the identification of high-risk individuals who will benefit the most from prophylactic medications. Conclusion: Patients should be taught how better blood glucose and albuminuria control might help delay the progression of CKD. The male sex is protective; however, most female patients were postmenopausal with low estrogen levels, eliminating any potential renoprotective advantage. Dipsticks may be used for UACR testing, making it more convenient.

Abstract

Background: Respondent-Driven Sampling (RDS) is generally used to study hidden or hard-to-reach populations. The objective of the present work is to describe the initiation, implementation, and complications that arise during RDS of female sex workers (FSWs) around the world. Method: Behavioural and biological data of FSWs collected through RDS was mined from peer-reviewed articles, published during 2010-2022. Review protocol was developed and registered in the PROSPERO (registration number CRD42022346470) and published separately. Results: It was found that most of the RDS (69 articles, globally) were largely successful in the recruitment of FSWs, with varying response rates. Conclusion: Present outcomes supports the application of RDS in surveillance for any such population by providing a minimal set of parameters of testing procedures (methodology) including methods to evaluate the quality also.

Abstract

Background: The issue of anaemia continues to be a significant public health concern requiring attention, mainly due to its increasing prevalence. In Sleman District, it has been observed that the prevalence of anaemia among adolescents has significantly risen from 2016 to 2018. This phenomenon underscores the interconnectedness of nutritional status, reproductive health, and anaemia, especially among adolescent girls. Adolescents, particularly girls, require sufficient nutritional intake to navigate the challenges associated with their physiological changes, particularly those related to the reproductive system. Nutritional status plays a crucial role in influencing reproductive system disorders, impacting menstrual irregularities, and closely intertwining with the occurrence of anaemia among adolescent girls. This paper highlights the relationship between nutrition status, reproductive health knowledge, and anaemia in Depok, Sleman, and Yogyakarta adolescent girls. Method: The study employed a cross-sectional method to explore data concerning nutritional status and reproductive health knowledge variables. The study was conducted on 108 female junior high school students aged 10-15 years in 3 schools in the Depok Sleman District. Sampling was done using accidental sampling. Data was collected at the schools by measuring anthropometry (body weight, height, BMI), checking haemoglobin (Hb), and filling out questionnaires on knowledge and dietary patterns. Results: It was found that there was no significant relationship between nutritional status and anaemia status in adolescents (p-value 0.75). Analysis of the relationship between knowledge related to reproductive health and anaemia status also revealed no significant relationship (p-value 0.772). Conclusion: The study concluded that no significant relationship exists between nutrition status, knowledge related to reproductive health, and anaemia status in adolescent girls. Although the results of this study did not show a significant relationship, the urgency for adolescents to maintain nutritional status and increase knowledge about anaemia prevention remains essential in the effort to prevent anaemia. A comprehensive anaemia prevention program must be implemented through collaboration among schools, health authorities, and the community.

Abstract

Background: Obesity is influenced by complex interactions between environmental, genetic, and behavioural factors. This study aims to explore the relationship between these three factors and the incidence of childhood obesity. Method: A systematic literature review was used following PRISMA guidelines. The data were collected from three main databases: Google Scholar, PubMed, and Garuda. Screening was carried out from 89 articles found until 10 relevant articles were obtained for analysis. Results: The analysis shows that childhood obesity is influenced by genetic factors, behaviour (including eating habits and physical activity), and environment (such as access to healthy food and sports facilities). These three factors interact to increase the risk of obesity. Conclusion: This study emphasizes that obesity prevention requires a multidisciplinary approach that involves the roles of family, school, government, and community. Recommended efforts include improving access to nutritious food, education on healthy lifestyles, and creating an environment that supports physical activity. The findings provide important insights for designing more effective interventions to address obesity in primary school-aged children.

Abstract

Background: Obesity is excessive fat accumulation due to an imbalance between energy intake and energy use. Between 2010 and 2018, there was an increase in the prevalence of overweight (3.9% annual average) and obesity (8% yearly average) among adults aged over 18. This study aims to overview the factors associated with the incidence of obesity. Method: This systematic literature review generated the data using electronic sources: Google Scholar and PubMed. Articles were selected using keywords: risk factors, obesity, physical activity, and food intake. The inclusion criteria used were free full text published in Bahasa or English between 2018 and 2023. Exclusion criteria: Literature review articles and full text are not freely available. Results: The existence of a high-calorie consumption pattern can increase the incidence of obesity, and lack of physical activity can cause the accumulation of body fat, which contributes to obesity. The findings from this study can be used to determine risk factors for obesity. Conclusion: This systematic literature review article concludes that various factors are associated with obesity, including food intake, physical activity, and smoking.

Abstract

Background: Anaemia among pregnant women is a significant public health concern, particularly in developing countries, due to its adverse effects on both maternal and fetal health. This study addresses the gap in research regarding anaemia in pregnant women in northern Iran, specifically among those undergoing elective caesarean sections. The objective is to assess the prevalence of anaemia in this population. Method: This retrospective cross-sectional study included 719 Caucasian pregnant women who were candidates for elective caesarean sections from September 2020 to March 2023. Patient data was collected from hospital electronic records. Anaemia was defined as haemoglobin <10.5 g/L in the three months before delivery and under 10 g/L after delivery. The Chi-square test was employed to compare anaemia prevalence across different demographic groups, with a significance level set at p-value < 0.05. Results: Among the 719 participants, key demographic findings revealed that most had primary education (26.8%), while only 12.4% held university degrees. Most (59.8%) resided in urban areas, with the largest age group being 31-36 (30.5%). Most women (75.2%) reported no history of miscarriage, and 98.2% experienced no bleeding during pregnancy. Notably, 57.7% of women reported no underlying health conditions; however, 9.2% had gestational diabetes, while others had blood disorders, neurological issues, or gastrointestinal problems. The prevalence of anaemia among patients undergoing elective caesarean sections was found to be 10.85%. Anaemia was more prevalent in women aged 25-30 years. Conclusion: integrating nutritional counselling into routine prenatal care can help address dietary deficiencies before they contribute to anaemia. Moreover, collaboration between healthcare providers and community leaders may foster greater acceptance of health interventions. By tailoring educational programs to local contexts and addressing specific cultural beliefs about nutrition and health, policymakers can create more effective strategies to combat anaemia in pregnant women.

Abstract

Background: Previous research found that children in rural areas have a 1.3 times greater risk of stunting than children in urban areas. Exclusive breastfeeding is one of the risk factors for stunting. The 2017 Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS) showed that the percentage of exclusive breastfeeding in urban areas was 37.8%, while in rural areas, it was 46.9%. The purpose of this study was to determine the magnitude of the risk of stunting in toddlers who are not exclusively breastfed in rural and urban areas. Method: This research used a Meta-Analysis Systematic Review by searching articles in PubMed, Google Scholar, and Garuda that were in Indonesian or English and published between 2019 and 2024. Keywords included stunting, risk factors, exclusive breastfeeding, children under five, rural, and urban. The article search used the PICO framework, while the article quality assessment used the Joanna Bright Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal Instrument. The data collected was presented in a PRISMA diagram and analyzed based on Forest Plot graphs using RevMan 5.4.1. Results: A total of 3,269 articles were identified, and 11 met the criteria. The analysis showed that toddlers not exclusively breastfed had a 3.84 times greater risk of stunting in rural areas and 2.38 times greater for urban regions than exclusively breastfed toddlers. Conclusion: Children who are not exclusively breastfed in rural areas are at greater risk of stunting than those in urban areas.

Abstract

Background: The gold mining industry has been pivotal in driving Ghana's economic expansion and development. This sector has substantially influenced the national economy, generating significant revenue and employment opportunities. Furthermore, the financial resources accrued have enabled investments in critical domains, fostering national progress. This review provides a nuanced examination of the socioeconomic implications of gold mining in Ghana, offering insights to inform policymaking and promote sustainable practices. Method: Extensive literature reviews were conducted across a wide range of leading academic databases, including ScienceDirect, PubMed, Google Scholar, JSTOR, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Scopus, to thoroughly investigate the relevant research on this topic. Results: The gold mining industry generates substantial revenue and employment, yet the perceived benefits inadequate compared to its economic output. The sector has failed to consistently improve local livelihoods, with communities reporting a lack of corresponding enhancements in their standard of living. Significant concerns persist regarding environmental degradation, displacement of residents, and inequitable profit distribution. This analysis underscores the urgent need for stronger enforcement of environmental regulations and greater accountability and equity within the sector. Furthermore, there is a stark disconnect between the wealth generated by gold mining and the adverse effects on mining communities, which face grave health and socio-economic challenges due to environmental degradation. Conclusion: This review emphasizes the pressing necessity for implementing sustainable gold mining practices in Ghana to mitigate environmental degradation. Fostering effective collaboration among all stakeholders is pivotal to achieving sustainable mining operations and the equitable distribution of mineral wealth.
