Abstract

There are still many teenagers who do not know about the physical changes of puberty, so it can affect their confidence. Adolescents must have good self-confidence so that they can help carry out their developmental tasks, in the formation of self-image or identity in adolescents, and the process of adjusting themselves to their social, both to peers and people around them. This study aims to find out the relationship between knowledge and attitudes of adolescent girls about the physical changes of puberty with self-confidence. This research method is observational with a cross-sectional approach. Sampling uses simple random sampling. Independent variables are knowledge and attitudes, while dependent variables are self-confidence. Data collection using questionnaires. The analysis using the Chi-Square test resulted from 71 respondents obtained students who had less knowledge as many as 53 students, had negative attitudes as many as 46 students, and almost all students had low self-confidence as many as 52 students. The results of the analysis of the relationship of knowledge with self-confidence value p value = 0.010 and attitude relationship with self-confidence value p value = 0.003. In conclusion, there is a significant relationship between the knowledge and attitude of young women about the physical changes of puberty with self-confidence in MTs student Ar-Rohman Tegalrejo Semen. It is hoped that school teachers can provide explanations about the physical changes that occur in young women, so that students are better prepared for the changes that occur, and can maintain and improve their reproductive health;

Abstract

The last few years have seen the increasingly young age of menarche in teenagers. The average age of the national menarche from year to year is declining. The more children experience early menarche, the greater the risk of negative implications such as lack of personal hygiene, breast cancer, and early pregnancy. Menarche's age is influenced by nutritional, economic, pornographic, and genetic status. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors that affect menarche in adolescents aged 10-12 years. The research conducted is descriptive-analytic with a cross-sectional design. The population of MIN 3 Magetan students aged 10-12 years who have menstruated and have met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The study sample was 87 respondents with a purposive sampling technique. Data collection using questionnaires. Statistical calculations are carried out by statistical and descriptive analysis with binary logistic regression tests. The average age of menarche is 11 years with the youngest age being 9 years and the oldest at 12 years, most female students experience early menarche (65.5%). There is an effect of nutritional status on menarche (p =0.048, Exp (B)= 4.3), there is an economic influence on menarche (p=0.000, Exp (B)= 11.3), there is an influence of pornographic exposure on menarche (p=0.001, Exp (B)= 12.1), and there is no genetic or age influence maternal menarche against menarche (0.388). Nutritional status, economic status, and exposure to pornographic media increase the incidence of early menarche. The highest risk factors for exposure to pornography resulted in  12.1 times the incidence of early menarche, economic status by 11.3 times, and nutritional status by 4.2 times. Strict supervision of mass media access and maintaining nutritional intake are necessary to prevent early menarche.

Abstract

River water quality is influenced by several factors, one of then is caused by industrial waste discharged into river bodies. Effluent discharged into water bodies contains heavy metals, pungent odours, and makes the colour of water in water bodies cloudy. the purpose of the study examined the effect of tannery effluent distance on the water quality of the Gandong River in Magetan Regency. Benefits For the company As a consideration to maximize WWTP processing actions so as not to pollute the river environment. for the surrounding community to know also the consequences caused by pollution of tanning industry waste so that they are more careful in reprocessing the use of river water. This type of the reseach was observational with a cross sectional approach. A purposive sampling technique was used. The data analysis methode was a correlation test by comparing laboratory test results with Gandong River water quality standards according to PP. RI. No 82 of 2001. Parametric statistical tests using Product-Moment Correlation to determine the relationsbetweenp of distance from the tannery industry affects the water quality of the Gandong River in Magetan Regency. The results showed that the water quality of Gandong River did not meet the requirements of COD 118 mg/l and colour 61.85 TCU/PtCo, at a distance of 250 m which exceeded the quality standards of COD 133 mg/l and colour 54.90 TCU/PtCo, at a distance of 500 m which did not meet the requirements of COD 89 mg/l, at a distance of 750 m which did not meet the requirements of COD 89 mg/l. temperature and TSS parameters. The highest results at a distance of 0 m of 27˚C and 368 mg / l meet the quality standard requirements for odour obtained odorous results. From the results of the study, it can be concluded that the parameters of pH, TSS, Temperature, and Odour still meet the quality standards and the parameters of colour, COD do not meet the quality standards. Based on the Product Moment correlation analysis, the relationship between distance and river water quality shows different values for correlation results that have a relationship, namely the parameters of odour, colour, COD and results that do not have a correlation of temperature and TSS. So the farther the distance from the pollutant source, the better the river water quality.

Abstract

Setting the speed of infusion drops in a manual manner is by adjusting the clamp on the infusion set, where the nurse must count the number of infusion drops in the chamber at the same time as looking at the time on the watch. This makes the setting is subjective and cannot be shown with numbers. In addition, nurses cannot monitor the infusion rate continuously. Therefore, it is necessary to enhancement the accuracy of giving infusion drops so that they can be objective and can be shown with numbers and monitor continuously. This enhancement in accuracy is done by making a instrument with an optocoupler to detect infusion drops. For processing uses an arduino microcontroller to be the speed and the volume of infusion and detects changes in the rate of infusion drops significantly. And for the display uses a OLED display and a buzzer as an indicator. The results of this instrument, it can be seen that the optocoupler can detect infusion drops in the infusion set properly. This good sensor reading has implications for accurate readings of the infusion drop rate and infusion drop volume. This enhancement in accuracy is not only for the macro drip (20 drops/cc) but also for the micro drip (60 drops/cc). The accuracy of volume readings ranges from 95-99% for the macro drip and 94.5-97% with the micro drip. And for speed accuracy ranges from 92.37-98.46%. Based from the results of this test, enhancement the accuracy of the infusion drip dose administration can be done by making a patient infusion drip dose calculator. This equipment uses an optocoupler sensor, arduino microcontroller, OLED display and buzzer. With the use of this instrument, nurses can be more accurate in regulating the rate of infusion drops given to patients and can monitor it continuously if there is a significant change in infusion rate.

Abstract

Air pollution due to industrial activities is increasing worldwide, including in Indonesia. Particulate Matter (PM) is one of the air pollutant parameters that can cause health problems, especially respiratory problems in communities living at the weaving industrial area. The aimed of this study was to analyze the environmental health risk  of human exposure due to dust exposure in communities around the weaving industry center. This research was an observational study using an environmental health risk analysis approach. Dust parameters were measured in as many as ten indoors and five outdoors around the weaving industry. The dust parameters measured were PM 2.5, PM 10, and Total Solid Particulate (TSP) concentration indoor and outdoor around the weaving industry areas. Dust measurements were carried out in the morning and afternoon using an Aerocet. The average results of dust measurement indoor were PM 2.5 (0.182 mg/m3), PM 10 (0.443 mg/m3), TSP (0.556 mg/m3), while for outdoor PM 2.5 (0.185 mg/m3). PM 10 (0.381 mg/m3), TSP (0.419 mg/m3). The average indoor of PM 2.5 intake was 0.013 mg/kg-day, PM10 (0.031 mg/kg-day), and TSP (0.038 mg/kg-day), and outdoor were PM 2.5 (for adult 0.064 mg/kg-day, for children 0.014 mg/kg-day), PM10 (for adult 0.132 mg/kg-day and for children 0.292 mg/kg-day), TSP (for adult 0.146 mg/kg-day and for children 0.322 mg/kg-day). All of them were more than Reference Concentration (RfC), and the Risk Quotient of PM10 and PM2.5 were more than 1. Exposure to PM10 and PM2.5 are unsafe or likely to result in non-carcinogenic effects on the residents in the next 30 years. The finding of this study is to provide information the dust concentration in the environment, the Risk Quotient of dust exposure in the communities around the weaving industry, and strategies for managing risks due to dust exposure in the traditional weaving industry center. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a risk management scenario.

Abstract

Introduction Pain during menstruation (dysmenorrhea) is a problem for young women and causes disturbances in daily activities. The pain occurs shortly before or together with the onset of menstruation and lasts several hours although in some cases it can last several days. Analysis of the factors that influence dysmenorrhea, frequency, intensity, time and type of pain in dysmenorrhea can be used as a basis for assessing the dysmenorrhea pain scale. The general objective of this study is to apply a cutaneous stimulation module to reduce dysmenorrhea in adolescents The method is qualitative which is done by looking for the dominant factors that influence the incidence of dysmenorrhea, to make an instrument of theme analysis. The population in this study were students of the Applied Midwifery Study Program with a sample of 46 students who were taken by executive sampling. The dependent variables of this study are the factors that influence dysmenorrhea consisting of age, family history, exercise, junk food habits, frequency of dysmenorrhea, intensity of dysmenorrhea, time of dysmenorrhea, type of dysmenorrhea, while the independent variable is cutaneous stimulation. Data analysis was carried out descriptively, then variable instruments were arranged, FGD (Focus Group Discussion), Expert Consultation and the last was compiling modules. Results age factor is a factor that affects dysmenorrhea in adolescents at the beginning of 84% of adolescents experiencing dysmenorrhea at the age of 13-17 years, while the family history factor is 63% there is a family history of mothers experiencing dysmenorrhea, then adolescents also experience dysmenorrhea. Sports factors can 67% of adolescents experience dysmenorrhea, the most exercise is jogging. Factors of junk food habits 45.7% of teenagers say junk food is the preferred food. The frequency of dysmenorrhea 95.7% of adolescents experience frequent dysmenorrhea in the menstrual cycle. In the intensity of dysmenorrhea, 45.7% of adolescents said the pain picture was of mild and moderate intensity. Time / time of dysmenorrhea found 80% of adolescents said they experienced pain at the beginning of menstruation. the type of adolescent dysmenorrhea is 98% type / type of dysmenorrhea with a primary. age factor is a factor that affects dysmenorrhea in adolescents at the beginning of 84% of adolescents experiencing dysmenorrhea at the age of 13-17 years, while the family history factor is 63% there is a family history of mothers experiencing dysmenorrhea, then adolescents also experience dysmenorrhea.

Discussions. Age factors, family history, exercise habits and consumption habits of junk food scustions of age, family history, exercise habits and consumption habits of junk food are factors that influence dysmenorrhea in adolescents. ages 13-17 emotional/psychological. Jogging is a sport that can increase the pain of dysmenorrhea. The opposite of light exercise such as gymnastics will produce endorphins. Endorphins are neuropeptides that the body produces when relaxed. The habit of consuming junk food for snacks or large meals will make the fat pile up more and more, causing dysmenorrhea. Junk food is a type of food that contains high calories, fat, salt, and oil, but low in vitamins and fiber. Usually, junk food also contains various food additives (BTP) such as sweeteners, flavors and preservatives. Eating too much junk food can lead to an increased risk of being overweight or obese. Adolescents with obesity are at risk for primary dysmenorrhea. The frequency of dysmenorrhea in adolescents is frequent. Adolescents According to Prawirohardjo & Wiknjosastro (2011: 182), dysmenorrhea that occurs in adolescents is usually primary dysmenorrhea. With frequent consumption of junk food and jogging, and supported by family factors, adolescents will often experience dysmenorrhea. The intensity of pain in adolescents is categorized as mild and moderate because adolescents are still able to withstand pain and hormones are still good. The time experienced by adolescents when dysmenorrhea occurs at the beginning of menstruation, the beginning of menstruation is the time when the menstrual blood flow is heavy. Type / type of dysmenorrhea experienced by adolescents is dysmenorrhea with primary type. This type is the type that often occurs in dysmenorrhea in adolescents. Suggestions for young women should be that the cutaneous stimulation module can be used as an alternative solution when experiencing menstruation accompanied by dysmenorrhea and for health care facilities this module can be used as material in providing health education for the community if experiencing dysmenorrhea. pain during dysmenorrhea and non-dysmenorrhea

Abstract

Young women who have menstruation may experience premenstrual syndrome (PMS) which will affect their quality of life. Premenstrual syndrome experienced can be bad for adolescents if not treated early. Therefore, teenagers are expected to be able to manage themselves as well as possible to avoid these problems. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between physical activity and sleep quality with the incidence of Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS). This research is an observational analytical study that is cross-sectional. Sampling using the slovin sample size formula, the sample was taken with a simple random sampling technique with a sample size of at least 39. The independent variables are physical activity and sleep quality, while the dependent variables are the incidence of Premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Data collection used the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and The Shortened Premenstrual Assessment From (SPAF). To analyze the relationship, a spearman rank test with a meaningfulness level or error limit is used, namely p≤0.05. The results showed that most female students had moderate physical activity as many as 33 female students. Then it can be known that most experienced moderate sleep quality as many as 17 female college students. The results of the Spearman test ranked the relationship between physical activity and Premenstrual Syndrome p value = 0.326 so that Ho was accepted and the relationship of sleep quality with Premenstrual Syndrome p value = 0.044, so Ho was rejected. Based on the description above, it can be concluded that there is no significant relationship between physical activity and premenstrual syndrome but there is a significant relationship between sleep quality and premenstrual syndrome in level 3 female students of the Diii Obstetrics Study Program, Magetan Campus. It is hoped that female students can increase their knowledge in managing themselves from an early age so that Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) does not occur.

Abstract

Environmental natural background ionizing radiation contamination and degradation is a global concern because of its negative effect on public health. Public health risk continues to be one of the environmental and public concerns in Nigeria. The emission of natural background ionizing radiation from the outer space, crust of the earth, food, and water and construction materials contributed a lot to the public environmental exposure. The populations’ exposure to background radiation emanated from terrestrial, cosmic, and internal radiation account for 82% which are out of control. Present work was aimed to carry out an investigational study of the natural background ionizing radiation levels, identify locations with high or low BIR and assess the health effect within Nigeria’s communities based on the available data extracted from the literatures and establish a baseline data of exposure rate, absorbed dose rate, annual effective dose equivalent, and excess life cancer risk from outdoor and indoor background radiation. This dosimetric study of natural background radiation in Nigeria is important to monitor the levels of radiation to which people are exposed directly or indirectly. Recently, several studies have been done in Nigeria and different values were reported based on indoor and outdoor background radiation doses. In this paper, a review and literature survey of natural background ionizing radiation was carried out. The data extracted based on indoor and outdoor revealed that Plateau, Oyo, River, Delta and Ondo, Sokoto, Kano and Niger have the highest value of dose rate compared to the world average value. The order of magnitude of the dose rate were Plateau > Oyo > Rive > Delta > Ondo and River > Plateau > Sokoto > Kano > Oyo > Ondo > Delta > Niger for Indoor and outdoor respectively. The highest outdoor & indoor annual effective doses were observed in OYO, Sokoto, Ondo, Delta, Akwanga, Plateau, and River. The results were comparatively greater than the world acceptable limit of 1.0 mSv/y. The order of magnitude of annual effective are OYO > Sokoto > Ondo > Niger Delta and Akwanga > Plateau > Delta > River for outdoor and indoor respectively. The regions with highest excess life cancer risks in Nigeria were observed in Oyo, Akwanga, Ondo, Plateau, River, Kaduna, Anambra, Port court, Abuja, Delta, Ibadan and Kano. Radiation cancer induction values obtained were remarkably high compared to world average value of 0.29×10-3. The amount of radiation absorbed by individual organs exposed to high natural background radiation areas were observed to be highest in tests organ, the order of magnitude were Tests > Bone marrow > Whole body > Lung > Ovaries > Kidney > Liver. But all the estimated mean values of organs doses were remarkably lower than that of world average value. Since the mean absorbed dose rate and annual effective dose in several areas is higher than 0.084µSv/h and 1.0 mSv/year for general public in many locations, long term exposure of the public to these radiations may lead to radiation induced health hazard such as erythema, skin cancer, genetic mutation and sterility.

Abstract

The global demand for alternative sugars is rising due to their lower glycemic index and other health benefits. However, improper manufacture, processing, transport, export, and/or marketing of regional sugar products increases the risk of microbial infection upon consumption. Fungal exposure and contamination of alternative sugars may occur as a result of enhanced hygroscopicity of certain sugar forms such as coconut and palm sugars, which strongly attract water molecules to their surface and thereby fungal spores, a property affected by adulteration practices, e.g. incorporation of cane sugar. The present study highlights risks of unregulated processing of palm sugar in the form of fungal contaminants and their toxigenic potential. Palm sugar was sampled for fungal isolates which were identified as Aspergillus flavus, A. niger, A. carbonarius, A. terreus, and A. fumigatus, followed by colony enumeration. Subsequent extraction of fungal extracts by thin layer chromatography resulted in detection of mycotoxins, including aflatoxins B1 and G1, citrinin, and ochratoxin. The findings confirmed that humid conditions may be optimal for the presence of toxigenic fungi in the palm sugar and production of toxic metabolites, indicating that more stringent regulation is required for palm sugar processing, as the toxins can lead to detrimental health consequences, including acute poisoning, nephropathy, and liver cancer.

Abstract

Stunting is the result of chronic nutritional problems as a result of poor quality food, coupled with morbidity, infectious diseases, and environmental problems. The family is the first and foremost social environment for the growth and development of children. Children will develop optimally if they get good stimulation from the family. Sensitive nutrition interventions include 12 things that families and communities can do to deal with stunting in toddlers. This study aims to develop a family Empowerment model for sensitive nutrition interventions for stunting. The study was conducted in April-June 2022 with a quasi-experimental design and non-randomized pre-post control group design, with a sample size of 170 respondents who met the inclusion criteria. The family empowerment model is formed from the wife's age at marriage, husband's age at marriage, length of marriage, wife's education, number of children, family type, availability of facilities, knowledge, attitudes and behavior. The characteristics of respondents and the availability of facilities need to be considered in family empowerment. Family behavior in handling stunting through sensitive nutrition interventions will be formed if it is based on good knowledge and the availability of adequate facilities.
