Abstract

The implementation of the first pillar of the Community-Based Total Sanitation (CLTS) program, targeting the elimination of Open Defecation (OD), has yielded varying outcomes across regions, including East Kalimantan. Program success is closely linked to factors such as community knowledge, local culture, access to sanitation infrastructure, and the involvement of health workers and local leaders. Approaches like Community-Led Total Sanitation (CLTS) and Ecological Sanitation (EcoSan) demonstrate different levels of effectiveness depending on geographic conditions and institutional support. In East Kalimantan, challenges such as dispersed settlements, limited access to clean water, and substandard housing quality hinder program outcomes. Nevertheless, programs integrating education, appropriate technology, community participation, and adaptive policies have proven to reduce diarrhea incidence, lower stunting rates, and raise sanitation awareness. Cross-sectoral collaborative strategies are essential to achieving sustainable and context-sensitive sanitation behavior change in this region.

Abstract

Malaria remains one of the public health issues in Indonesia, caused by the mosquito vector Anopheles spp., with a fairly high morbidity and mortality rate and a strong potential to trigger extraordinary events (outbreaks) in Indonesia. One of the ways to control malaria is by controlling the risk factors. The control of risk factors will be successful if its implementation is based on accurate data and information about the vector, the environment, its breeding, as well as the behaviour of the local community. The aim of this study is to analyse the risk factors for malaria incidence in Indonesia. Method: This study used a systematic review of five journal articles on malaria incidence in Indonesia, each using a case-control research method. Results: Based on the similarity of variables between researchers, there are several statistically significant risk factors, namely the use of wire mesh on ventilation, using mosquito nets, tight wall conditions, the presence of breeding places, the presence of resting places and being outside the house at night. Meanwhile, the protective factor for malaria incidence in Indonesia based on the average Odds Ratio (OR) above was the presence of breeding sites (properly managed). Conclusion: There are thirteen variables that become risk factors and one protective factor of malaria, namely the presence of breeding sites

Abstract

In order to reduce maternal and infant mortality rates, interventions must focus on improving the quality of antenatal care, particularly at primary care level. One key competency that general practitioners must possess is the ability to perform basic obstetric ultrasound examinations to detect intrauterine foetal abnormalities early on. This community service activity aims to enhance general practitioners' skills in this area using a six-step approach. Implementation involves theoretical education, hands-on training and pre- and post-test evaluations of participants' knowledge and skills. The activity involved 30 general practitioners from the Kampar Regency area. Training results showed an average increase in post-test scores of 31.67% compared to pre-test scores, indicating significant improvements in participants' competencies. The activity also facilitated the distribution of practice- based teaching modules and strengthened collaboration with local community health centres to support maternal and child health services. Basic obstetric ultrasound training has proven to be an effective way of strengthening primary healthcare services and reducing maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity rates.

Abstract

Introduction: Based on medical record data from Undata Regional General Hospital (RSUD Undata) Palu, 120 cervical cancer (Ca cervix) cases received examination and medical treatment in 2023. This high number indicates that cervical cancer remains a major public health problem in Central Sulawesi. Objective: To analyze the risk factors associated with cervical cancer among women of reproductive age at RSUD Undata, Central Sulawesi Province, in 2024. Method: This quantitative study applied a cross-sectional design and was conducted at RSUD Undata Palu. The sample comprised 69 respondents selected through proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were analyzed using univariate (frequency distribution) and multivariate (multiple linear regression) analyses. Results and Discussion: The analysis revealed that number of marriages (p=0.009), age at first pregnancy (p=0.035), number of children (p=0.000), smoking history (p=0.016), and clinical symptoms (p=0.018) significantly influenced cervical cancer risk. Conversely, age (p=0.727), body weight (p=0.850), ethnicity (p=0.103), menarche (p=0.786), and occupational history (p=0.596) showed no significant association. A greater number of children increased risk due to repeated cervical trauma and hormonal changes during pregnancy that facilitate persistent viral infection. Conclusion: The number of children, clinical symptoms, marital frequency, and smoking history had dominant effects on cervical cancer risk, while age and body weight had no direct influence. The regression model explained 43% of the variation in cervical cancer risk.

Abstract

Background: Background: In 2024, Central Sulawesi recorded 74 breast tumor cases, with Palu having the highest screening coverage and North Morowali the lowest. At the Health Training Center, only one of eight staff showed proper BSE knowledge and technique, indicating poor practice. These findings underscore the need for effective education to strengthen early breast cancer detection behaviors. Method: A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design was applied in August 2025. The study involved all 41 registered women of reproductive age (WRA) at the Health Training Center, selected through total sampling. Data analysis included univariate analysis for descriptive characteristics, paired sample t-test to assess pre–post intervention changes, and One Way ANOVA to identify differences between groups after receiving interactive educational sessions. Results: Findings from the paired sample t-test revealed significant improvements in knowledge, attitudes, and practices following the intervention (p < 0.05). ANOVA further showed significant differences across groups for all variables, with behavioral changes demonstrating the highest F-value. Interactive education involving demonstrations and hands-on practice effectively enhanced cognitive understanding, shaped positive attitudes, and strengthened participants’ ability to perform BSE consistently. Conclusion: Interactive BSE education significantly improved knowledge, attitudes, and practices among women of reproductive age, with direct practice serving as a vital component in sustaining behavior change. Recomendation: Routine interactive BSE training is advised to sustain skills and confidence, supported by efforts targeting women with low self-efficacy and strengthened collaboration with health cadres and facilities. Further research is needed to identify factors influencing long-term adherence.
