Diarrhea is a leading cause of toddler deaths globally, including in Indonesia with 100,000 deaths annually. Identifying factors predicting recurrent diarrhea significantly impacts prevention efforts. Objectives: This research aims to create a prediction model for the incidence of recurrent diarrhea in toddlers at the Tanah Kali Kedinding Community Health Center, Surabaya. Methods: This research method was a retrospective observational analytical study with a case-control design, involving 80 toddlers (40 case samples and 40 control samples) selected through purposive sampling. The independent variable was recurrent diarrhea in toddlers. The dependent variables were birth weight, nutritional status, measles immunization status, vitamin A suplementation, breastfeeding patterns, and mother's hand washing habits. The instrument used was a questionnaire. Data analysis used simple and multiple logistic regression. Results: The research showed that the incidence of recurrent diarrhea was related to malnutrition status (p = 0.008, OR = 20.184), measles immunization status (p = 0.029, OR = 9.599), breastfeeding pattern (p = 0.002, OR = 15.270), and maternal hand washing habits (p = 0.001, OR = 15.917). Meanwhile, factors that were not significantly related included birth weight (p = 0.397) and vitamin A suplementation (p = 0.456) Conclusions: Factors that influenced the formation of a prediction model for the incidence of recurrent diarrhea in toddlers were malnutrition status, measles immunization status, breastfeeding patterns, and mother's hand washing habits.

Abstract

The total number of TB cases in Indonesia is 969,000. This figure represents a 17% increase compared to 2020. SITB 2022 data shows there are 15,375 cases of co-infection of pulmonary TB with HIV. The treatment success rate for pulmonary TB co-infection with HIV in Indonesia in 2022 is 71%. This is still far from the national target of 90%.This case report discusses a 33-year-old man with pulmonary TB and TB lymphadenitis with HIV at clinical stage 4. The CD4 count was 10 cells/mm3. The degree of immunodeficiency suffered by this patient is severe immunodeficiency. The management was to administer OAT first, followed by ART within 2 weeks after OAT was administered and well tolerated. OAT was administered for 9 months due to the presence of TB lymphadenitis. Treatment evaluation showed clinical improvement and the patient did not develop IRIS. The incidence of IRIS in patients with TB is 8%-43%. Factors influencing the occurrence of IRIS include the CD4 count at the start of ART.

Abstract

Introduction: Indonesia is one of the countries with the highest maternal mortality rates (MMR) in Southeast Asia with a rate of 189 per 100,000 live births based on the 2020 Long-Form Population Census. This figure needs to be significantly reduced to achieve the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) target of fewer than 70 deaths per 100,000 live births. Proper antenatal care, including the use of the Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Handbook, plays a crucial role in reducing maternal mortality. Pregnancy care is vital to ensure fetal development, prevent pregnancy complications, and lower the risk of infant mortality during childbirth. Objectives: This study aims to conduct a scientific investigation to examine the relationship in the utilization of the MCH handbook with the level of maternal knowledge among pregnant women at the Tanah Kalikedinding Health Center. Methods: This observational analytic study used a cross-sectional design. The selection of 106 participants was carried out using purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using the Spearman rho statistical test. Results: Among the respondents, 51 (48.11%) demonstrated adequate utilization of the MCH Handbook and 89 (83.96%) exhibited a high level of knowledge regarding daily care for pregnant women. The Spearman rho test revealed a significant relationship between MCH Handbook utilization and knowledge of daily care (p = 0.042). Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between the use of the MCH Handbook and pregnant women’s knowledge of daily care at Tanah Kalikedinding Health Center.
