Abstract

Background: Nurse has a risk to get an excessive weight nutritional status that can increase the risk of serious health problems, such as heart disease, hypertension and diabetes mellitus. The intervention of nutrition counseling and diet are expected to lose weight in people with excessive weight nutritional status. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of nutrition counseling and the implementation of Rendah Energi, Seimbang dan Teratur (REST) diet on weight loss among hospital nurses with excessive weight nutritional status in the hospital.Methods: The study was conducted at Occupational Health Hospital of West Java with 22 nurses as study subjects with excessive weight nutritional status, implemented nutrition counseling intervention, a RESTTM Diet and also used the Bouchard questionnaire, OSI-RTM questionnaire and food record sheets.Results: The greatest average weight loss after receiving nutrition counseling and implementing a RESTTM Diet occurred in the 12th week of the last observation. It was 2.6 kg with 95% CI=1.3-3.9 kg. Based on the bivariate test showed gender had a significant effect on the average weight loss. The male nurses had greater average weight loss than female nurses (p=0.038). The average weight loss of male nurses was 3.1 ± 1.7kg and female nurses 1.6 ± 1.3kg. Meanwhile, the effect of occupational factors on weight loss after receiving nutrition counseling and implementing the RESTTM Diet did not show a significant effect, such as job position (p=0.948), the number of working hours (p=0.220), work shift schedule (p=0.692) and work stress (p=0.813).Conclusions: There was an effect of nutrition counseling and RESTTM Diet during 12 weeks on weight loss among the hospital nurses with excessive weight nutritional status in the hospital.

Abstract

Introduction: Pilots have job characteristics that are at risk of causing fatigue. Since fatigue is not a disease, it is important to manage the risk factors. We developed a self-assessment application to manage the fatigue risk for pilots, including physical activity and sleeping difficulties. This application aims to increase pilots’ awareness as one of the health maintenance measures.Methods: The application was developed in collaboration with Garuda Indonesia Training Centre (GITC) to ensure suitable educational content for pilots. The users were asked to fill in data inquiring about their flight characteristics, the Checklist Individual Strength-20 for fatigue screening, General Physical Activity Questionnaire for physical activity, and Jenkins Sleep Scale for sleep difficulties. Afterward, a recommendation will be given based on the received input.Results: The application was able to screen fatigue risks, physical activities, and sleeping difficulties, and provide recommendations based on the questionnaire that was filled in, all adjusted to the user’s work characteristics. The finalized version was then available for download as an Android-based application for the pilots in GITC.Conclusion: The FRAMES is an Android-based self-assessment application for pilots. With the use of this application, hopefully, fatigue can be detected early in pilots, hence counteract measures may be implemented sooner to mitigate fatigue.

Abstract

Introduction: The asbestos industry actively tries to delay adequate asbestos protection regulation in workplaces by systematic manipulation and scientific misconduct. This research aims to compile several of their efforts throughout the years to study their efforts and prevent them. Methods: A literature review was conducted to explore instances of scientific misconduct in occupational health studies related to asbestos in November 2022. The sources were taken from Google Scholar and PubMed. From the entire search, 6 relevant studies were reviewed. Results: Throughout the world, the asbestos industry has been responsible for delays in adequate asbestos regulations. Several systematic scientific misconduct regarding asbestos use happened in 1930s United States, as well as fraudulent research regarding asbestos in early 2000s Brasil. Scientific misconducts can directly influence the direction of occupational health research involving asbestos exposure, resulting in delays in adequate regulation implementation.Conclusions: The dangers of asbestos to workers exposed is already firmly established. The asbestos industry has been deliberately manipulating scientific data to sway corporate and public views to prolong the viability of asbestos production and daily use. They achieved this using industry-backed scientific discourse, direct manipulation of research data, as well as direct manipulation of research data publication.

Abstract

Introduction: The increasing participation of women in the labour market has led to a growing trend of female employment. This has a significant impact on women’s roles as mothers, particularly breastfeeding mothers. Objective: This review aims to discuss the benefits and challenges of breastfeeding faced by female workers in the workplace and how to counter itDiscussion: Breastfeeding in the workplace has several advantages for mothers, which may act as an incentive to combine breastfeeding and work. The advantages include reduced absenteeism, increased productivity, and decreased turnover rates. However, breastfeeding in the workplace presents several challenges, including the lack of research on the topic, the lack of support from employers, distance between home and work, the lack of lactation facilities on-site, and reduced milk production during work hours. This situation drives the development of a lactation promotion model that can support breastfeeding in the workplace. The lactation promotion model, comprised of seven major components, can be implemented in the workplace to increase exclusive breastfeeding and boost female worker productivity. Conclusion: It is recommended to give workers with under-6-month children the option of working part-time or returning home earlier and for companies to provide lactation support staff, educational materials, and peer support groups to help working mothers breastfeed at work. The role of company occupational doctors takes a very important place in this lactation promotion model to achieve high breastfeeding rate in female workers.

Abstract

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus that infects white blood cells and reduces human immunity. Meanwhile, acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a group of symptoms caused by HIV infection that result in decreased immunity. According to UNAIDS data, the estimated number of people living with HIV in Indonesia (2021) reach 540,000, with approximately 200,000 being women and girls, and 19,000 being children. In Indonesia, the HIV prevalence rate is 0.3%, with a total of 27,000 new infections each year. According to more complete data, up to 26,000 people living with HIV died of AIDS. When compared to ten years ago, the percentage of new infections decreased by 47%, but the number of AIDS-related deaths increased by 88%. Overall, the number of HIV cases in Indonesia fluctuates, but on an upward trend. Nonetheless, the Indonesian government is committed to helping the world achieve its goal of ending AIDS by 2030.
