Abstract

Changes in lifestyle and eating habits can affect food choices for adolescents, impacting their nutritional intake. Schools are pivotal in shaping healthy eating behaviors. This qualitative study explores the perspectives of secondary school students and teachers on strategies to improve the healthy food environment in an urban school. Two focus group discussions with students and one with teachers, along with one in-depth interview with the school principal, were conducted at a junior high school in Makassar city. The audio recordings were transcribed and analyzed thematically to identify key themes. Students appeared to be aware of the importance of healthy eating habits; however, they lacked a full understanding of which healthier choices to make. Focus group discussions and interviews revealed that all groups recognize the importance of promoting healthier choices through regulation, education, and accessible nutritious foods. The study highlights actionable strategies for implementing school-based interventions to foster sustainable healthy eating behaviors.

Abstract

Adolescent Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) knowledge is crucial for informed decision-making, yet cultural barriers in Malaysia limit open discussions, creating significant knowledge gaps. This study validated the Malay version of the Adolescent SRH Knowledge and Attitudes Questionnaire to address this need. The validation process included expert content review (6 panelists), face validity testing (30 respondents), and psychometric analysis among 100 adolescents in Sarawak. The questionnaire demonstrated excellent content validity as rated by the experts and strong face validity among adolescents. The knowledge domain showed high internal consistency (α = 0.935), while the attitude domain had moderate reliability (α = 0.682), with refinements improving item alignment. The validated questionnaire provides a culturally adapted tool for assessing SRH among Malaysian adolescents, supporting targeted interventions. Future studies should expand validation to diverse populations and the assess longitudinal stability.

Abstract

Pesticide exposure remains a major occupational health problem, with the World Health Organization (WHO) reporting between 1 and 5 million cases of pesticide poisoning annually among agricultural workers. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors associated with pesticide poisoning by conducting a meta-analysis of published research. The meta-analysis was performed in four stages: data abstraction, statistical analysis using JASP Version 0.18.3, heterogeneity testing, and publication bias assessment. The random-effects model was applied to the variables of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) use and length of work, as the heterogeneity test indicated significant variation between studies (p = 0.001). In contrast, the fixed-effects model was used for individual hygiene (p = 0.006). Egger’s test showed no indication of publication bias for PPE use (p = 0.356) and length of work (p = 0.395). The results revealed that PPE use increased the risk of decreased cholinesterase levels by 1.584 times, poor individual hygiene by 1.954 times, and working more than 5 hours by 1.665 times. In conclusion, individual hygiene was identified as the most significant risk factor. Farmers who neglect personal hygiene practices, such as bathing after spraying or changing clothes immediately, face a substantially greater risk of reduced cholinesterase levels due to pesticide poisoning.

Abstract

Food Waste (FW) in urban households remains a serious issue as it contributes to economic losses, reduced dietary quality, and weakened food security. This study aims to identify the dominant factors influencing food management behavior, FW generation, and their implications for household food security in urban settings. A cross-sectional design was applied with urban households as the study population, and samples were selected using purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) within the framework of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and Nudge Theory. The results indicate that attitude (β = 0.42; p < 0.01), subjective norm (β = 0.31; p < 0.05), and perceived behavioral control (β = 0.36; p < 0.01) significantly influence intention toward food management. Furthermore, intention strongly predicts actual food management behavior (β = 0.55; p < 0.001), which subsequently reduces FW (β = –0.47; p < 0.001). Reduced FW positively affects both food expenditure efficiency (β = 0.39; p < 0.01) and energy intake adequacy (β = 0.34; p < 0.05), two critical indicators of urban household food security. Behavioral factors play a crucial role in reducing FW and strengthening food security in urban households. Therefore, behavior-based interventions using TPB and Nudge Theory are recommended to be integrated into food education programs, household assistance, and urban food security policies to ensure effectiveness and sustainability.

Abstract

Stroke is the leading cause of death and disability in Indonesia, with a high prevalence reported in the Indonesian Health Survey (IHS) 2023. Smoking, consumption of fatty foods, and intake of soft drinks are major risk factors contributing to the increasing incidence of both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. This study aims to analyze the effects of smoking habits, fatty food consump-tion, and soft drink intake on stroke incidence in Indonesia using secondary data from IHS 2023. A quantitative design was applied, with chi-square test analysis performed using SPSS. The study population comprised all individuals recorded in the IHS 2023, which covered 38 provinces in Indonesia. Results showed that the age group 65–74 years had the highest incidence of stroke (35.4%), with a higher prevalence among men (8.8%) compared to women (7.9%). Education level and type of occupation were also associated with stroke prevalence. Statistical analysis demonstrated that smoking (p = 0.013), fatty food consumption (p = 0.003), and soft drink intake (p = 0.002) were significantly associated with stroke incidence. Among these, soft drink con-sumption was the strongest predictor (p = 0.001; OR = 3.717). In conclusion, smoking, fatty food consumption, and soft drink intake significantly affect stroke incidence in Indonesia, with soft drink consumption being the most influential factor.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) and tobacco use represent two of the most pervasive global health challenges, with a particularly profound impact in Low and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs). Although numerous reviews have explored the clinical and epidemiological associations between TB and smoking. A systematic analysis of publication trends is lacking. This study aims to address this gap by providing a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the intersection between TB and tobacco use, mapping its evolution, key research themes, collaboration networks, and underexplored areas. This study utilized a bibliometric method. Data from 13,876 articles indexed in Scopus were analyzed using RStudio, VOSViewer, and OpenRefine. PLOS ONE emerged as the most prolific journal, with Wang Y being the leading author, having published 178 articles. The University of California was identified as the leading institution with 707 publications. Emerging research topics include mathematical modeling and numerical simulation, reflecting increasing attention to computational approaches in respiratory disease research. Country collaboration networks revealed the United States as the dominant contributor, with significant partnerships with African countries. These findings emphasize the importance of smoking prevention in TB control strategies, offering insights to inform public health policies and guide future research on TB and smoking’s health impacts.

Abstract

Stress during pregnancy can negatively impact the health of both the mother and the fetus, especially in the first trimester, which is a period of intense physical and emotional adaptation. This study aims to determine the prevalence and psychosocial factors associated with the occurrence of stress in first-trimester pregnant women in Makassar City. This study uses a cross-sectional design involving 256 first-trimester pregnant women from five public health centers in the suburban areas of Makassar City. Data were collected through interviews using a structured questionnaire. The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS10) instrument was used to measure stress levels. Analysis was conducted bivariately and multivariately using logistic regression. The prevalence of severe stress among pregnant women in the first trimester was 36.72%. Multivariate analysis revealed two factors significantly associated with severe stress: low family income (adjusted Prevalence Ratio (aPR) = 2.32; 95% CI: 1.15–4.66; p = 0.018) and poor interpersonal relationships with parents or in-laws (adjusted Prevalence Ratio (aPR) = 4.63; 95% CI: 1.53–14.02; p = 0.007). Socioeconomic factors and interpersonal relationships with parents/in-laws influence the high levels of stress experienced by first-trimester pregnant women. Early intervention that considers the family's economic aspects and social support from the surrounding environment is critical in preventing stress during pregnancy.

Abstract

Stunting remains a significant public health challenge with complex, interconnected causative factors. Traditional static approaches fail to capture the dynamic relationships between environmental, health, and socioeconomic determinants. Dynamic modeling is essential for understanding these multifaceted interactions and developing effective prevention policies. Despite declining trends, Padang City's high prevalance of stunting necessitates urgent, targeted interventions to achieve national targets. This study aims to develop a dynamic model analyzing stunting factors in Padang City and formulate effective prevention policies. A quantitative descriptive method with a dynamic systems approach was employed. Primary data were obtained through stakeholder questionnaires, while secondary data were obtained from the Padang City Health Office and Statistical Reports (2018-2023). Analysis utilized PowerSim Studio 10 for dynamic systems modeling and Interpretative Structural Modeling (ISM) for policy strategy development. Seven main factors influencing stunting were identified: low birth weight, maternal health, immunization, diarrhea, living in slum areas, access to clean water access, and household sanitation. Simulation modeling demonstrated that improving environmental conditions, increasing immunization coverage, and administering iron tablets could reduce stunting rates by 50% over 25 years. ISM analysis revealed environmental factors (sanitation, waste management, and access clean water) as key elements with the highest driving force. Consistent immunization coverage could reduce stunting prevalence from 24.2% to 12% within the projection period, while improved sanitation programs may lower prevalence by 15%. The research provides an integrated approach prioritizing basic infrastructure improvement, environmental sanitation enhancement, cross-sector coordination, and community capacity building. This dynamic modeling framework offers valuable insights for comprehensive stunting prevention strategies. However, limitations include a modeling-only scope requiring field validation for implementation effectiveness.
