Abstract

Background: Leptospirosis remains a global public health concern as a neglected and re-emerging tropical disease with substantial morbidity and mortality. This study investigates the association between ambient temperature and leptospirosis cases in Central Java to elucidate disease transmission patterns.Methods: A quantitative approach was employed, integrating geographic information system (GIS) analysis with descriptive spatial methods. The study examined leptospirosis cases and ambient temperature trends from 2018 to 2022 across all districts and cities within Central Java Province.Results: These findings underscore the necessity of incorporating temperature-based risk assessment into public health strategies, particularly through the implementation of spatially driven monitoring systems to identify high-risk regions and mitigate leptospirosis transmission in temperature-prone areas. Spatial analysis revealed that areas characterized by high to moderate minimum, maximum, and average temperatures, such as Banyumas, Demak, and Semarang City, exhibited a greater case of leptospirosis compared to areas with lower temperatures.Conclusion: This study showed that areas with high and medium minimum, maximum, and average temperatures, such as Banyumas, Demak, and Semarang City, tended to have higher leptospirosis cases than areas with low minimum temperatures, highlighting the need for spatial-based monitoring systems to detect high-risk areas, particularly those with warm ambient temperatures.

Abstract

Background: Landfills emit various hazardous gases through the decomposition of waste, one of which is hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), a gas that is particularly harmful to the human respiratory system. Individuals living or working near landfills are at higher risk of developing respiratory disorders due to prolonged exposure to polluted air. This review aimed to identify the risk factors of H₂S exposure from landfills that contribute to respiratory problems.Methods: A literature review methodology was used by collecting studies from Google Scholar. Sixteen articles were selected based on predefined inclusion criteria after identification and screening.Results: The results of the review indicate that respiratory disorders are influenced by various factors, such as H2S concentration, H2S intake, H2S RQ value, exposure patterns (duration, frequency, and intensity), and individual characteristics (age, gender, nutritional status, use of personal protective equipment).Conclusion: The concentration of H2S is relatively low compared to other gases produced from TPA, and individual risk factors have an impact on lung function disorders.

Abstract

Background: Dementia is a progressive cognitive disorder that impacts the quality of life of the elderly, causing decreased cognitive and social functions and increased dependency. Families play an important role in providing emotional, physical, social and economic support, but not all have sufficient understanding in caring for the elderly with dementia. Lack of family knowledge and skills in caring for the elderly with dementia can cause stress for caregivers and reduce the quality of life of the elderly themselves. The Alzi Surabaya Community acts as a forum for education and assistance for families to improve optimal care. This study aimed to analyze family support strategies in improving the quality of life of the elderly with dementia in the Alzi Surabaya community.Methods: This study uses a qualitative approach with a phenomenological method. Informants were selected through purposive sampling of seven families of caregivers of the elderly with dementia. Data collection was carried out through in-depth interviews and documentation, analyzed using data reduction techniques, data presentation and drawing conclusions/verification. Data validity was tested by source triangulation.Results: The results of the study from seven respondents showed that family support plays a crucial role in improving the quality of life of the elderly with dementia. Emotional support in the form of good attention and communication improves the psychological well-being of the elderly. Physical support such as assistance in self-care and providing nutritious food, maintains the health of the elderly. Economic support ensures access to health services. In addition, family involvement in social activities also helps maintain the emotional stability of the elderly. Interaction with the Alzi Surabaya community helps families in communication strategies, managing behavioral changes and strengthening social support.Conclusion: Based on the results of the study, it was concluded that the better the family support that has been given in caring for the elderly with dementia, the better their quality of life will be

Abstract

Background: In an era of increasingly tight healthcare competition, patient loyalty is an important indicator of hospital success. This loyalty is not only influenced by the quality of medical services alone, but also by the effectiveness of the communication and marketing strategies implemented. Hospital marketing strategies that are able to build long-term relationships with patients are now the focus of study, especially in the context of how these strategies can increase patient trust and retention. Therefore, it is important to identify marketing strategies that have been empirically proven to have an impact on patient loyalty.Methods: This study uses a systematic literature review approach, which examines and evaluates five selected scientific papers from various hospital contexts in Indonesia and Japan. The literature review involves qualitative and quantitative studies to gain a comprehensive understanding of effective marketing strategies. The selection process of articles is based on their relevance, credibility, and contribution to the topic of patient loyalty in healthcare marketing.Results: The results of the analysis show that the two main strategies that are dominant and significant in increasing patient loyalty are Integrated Marketing Communication (IMC) and relationship marketing.Conclusion: This study confirms that patient loyalty is not only formed by the quality of medical services, but also by integrated, adaptive, and long-term-oriented communication and marketing strategies. These findings provide an important contribution in formulating more strategic health service marketing policies that focus on sustainable patient relationships, so that they can be a practical reference for hospital managers in increasing institutional competitiveness.
