The prevalence of stunting in children under five in Indonesia and the province of Lampung is still high and the highest is in rural areas.

Abstract

The lockdown policy for certain dental care during pandemic COVID-19 could cause mental distress. This prolonged pandemic has frustrated orthodontists and patients before the emergence of vaccination. Since the initiation of COVID-19 mass vaccination in January 2021 by the Indonesian government, the aim of this study is to describe the anxiety level of patients undergoing fixed orthodontics treatment regarding routine care from February to May 2021. The highest anxiety level towards routine care during the COVID-19 pandemic was in moderate level (57.4%) and in severe level (40.7%). Both male and female patients showed moderate level of anxiety against routine care during the COVID-19 pandemic. Most patients who came for routine care are from late adolescence (17 to 25 years old) and with a bachelor degree. Orthodontists have to consider patients’ anxiety level in order to obtain a successful orthodontic treatment due to the previous temporary lockdown of the dental hospital. Since the definite time for the COVID-19 pandemic to end is still unknown, social intervention for patients should be considered in managing the mental distress that emerged. In this current time, the expansion of COVID-19 new variants has also become a dilemma for orthodontists and patients. The vaccination and routine screening for COVID-19 is advisable as the requirement for safe routine orthodontics control. Thus, education for oral health maintenance during orthodontics treatment will be an integral part of preventing the COVID-19 local transmission.

Abstract

The pandemic caused by COVID-19 is still ongoing after nearly two years. The hope that the pandemic will be over soon is beginning to emerge. The successful development of a COVID-19 vaccine is one of the efforts to combat the pandemic. Vaccination programs that are available to the general public do not always run smoothly. The vaccination program was overshadowed by a number of issues and polemics. The purpose of this research is to see how the community reacts to the COVID-19 vaccination program. Data was collected using ethnographic research methods in Kalipare Village, Malang Regency, between October and November 2021. Random informants and interviews were conducted on members of the community and health professionals. The analysis was carried out by categorizing the data related to the community's fear, willingness, or doubt in participating in this program. According to the findings of this research, public rejection, fear, and doubt occur as a result of: a lack of public confidence in the vaccine's effects; a lack of trust in institutions; and the assumption that vaccines can cause illness and death. Typically, research on vaccine scepticism is followed by a refusal to participate in the program, but the findings of this research show the opposite. People continue to participate in the vaccination program despite their lack of faith, doubt, and fear.

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has caused the Indonesian government to issue a PSBB (Large-Scale Social Restriction) policy. The implementation of this policy has the risk of causing mental health disorders in adolescents, especially middle teens who like to be in groups with their peers. Therefore, early detection of adolescent mental health during the Covid-19 pandemic needs to be done to prevent and deal with disorders that can occur in adolescent growth and development. This study aims to identify the mental health of adolescents during the Covid-19 pandemic at SMA Negeri 1 Pematang Raya, Simalungun Regency. The population of this study were all students of SMA Negeri 1 Pematang Raya, totaling 1024 with a total sample of 288 people. The sample was determined by simple random sampling technique. The research instrument used was a modified Strength and Dificulties Questionnaire (SDQ). The results of this study indicate that in the weakness domain which consists of 4 subdomains namely emotional problems, behavior problems, hyperactivity, and relationship problems with peers, as many as 124 adolescents (43.1%) are at risk for experiencing relationship problems with peers during the pandemic.

Abstract

Stunting in under-five children is mostly due to unbalanced nutritional intake. Stunting is a health problem that requires further treatment. Taking care of the diet is a shortcut to the improvement of child nutrition and growth. This study aimed to examine the dietary habits formed by parents of under-five children with stunted growth. The study was conducted in Labotan Kandi Village, South Bulagi District, Banggai Islands Regency, Central Sulawesi. The data were collected through a series of observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation. This research was carried out from July to August 2022 by conducting interviews with 18 mothers of children under five years that fall into the stunting category (based on weighing data of February 2022). The results show that the formation of dietary habit in under-five children with stunted growth is done in simple and careless manners. Children mainly consume tubers in their daily diet, including bete, kela, ndeke, kasibi, and ubi Banggai. Access to fruits and vegetables (such as chayote, papaya, and ferns leaves) and animal protein (such as fish, chicken, beef, and pork) is still very limited, and they cannot be accessed every day. As long as the child is quiet, does not cry, and eats till full, parents no longer think about the nutritional needs that must be met by their children who fall into the stunting category.

Abstract

This study entitled "Knowledge System of Traditional Fracture Treatment in Tapakis (Case Study in Lubuk Alung District, West Sumatra)" describes the knowledge of traditional fracture treatment among the Lubuk Alung community in treating and or curing their patients, as well as to find out the reasons why patients choose Tapakis traditional medicine instead of seeking treatment with modern medicine. The results of ethnographic research conducted by means of observation and in-depth interviews using interview guide interview guidelines for healers and several informants who became patients in the traditional treatment of Tapakis fractures. Patients come from a variety of backgrounds and ages. The result of this study is that the traditional treatment of Tapakis fractures is a medicinal knowledge passed down from generations from Mr. Sofyan's ancestors. Not everyone can learn the knowledge of The Treaded fracture treatment because the knowledge should not be told to others because the science of medicine is only passed on to people who are considered capable. Patients and prospective patients are aware of the practice of this treatment through word of mouth and the results of some patients who recovered completely during treatment to this place. People prefer to treat fractures to Tapakis because the price is much cheaper than going to modern medical treatment in general.

Abstract

The choice of traditional medicine methods as an alternative to treatment is becoming increasingly popular, especially with the recommendation to return to nature. One of the traditional medicine practices that is still often used is the treatment of fractures. This thesis describes the practice of fracture treatment in Banda Aceh City by a broken herbalist, and reveals the factors that cause patients to choose the traditional treatment of fractures. The thesis was written based on ethnographic field research with data collection techniques for in-depth interviews and observations of fracture shamans and patients treated by the broken shaman. The results of this study show that traditional medicine has been carried out for generations. Treatment is carried out using decoctions derived from traditional herbs and spices. The healing process in the practice of fractures is divided into two, namely the healing of light fractures and the healing of severe fractures. A mild fracture takes a short healing time of approximately about a week. As for severe fractures, it takes approximately three months. Patients who have fractures prefer traditional medicine over medical due to economic, social, and cultural factors.
