Abstract

About 33 percent of the global population is anemic. Anemia of chronic disease (ACD) is caused by chronic inflammation. Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is caused by a decrease in the body's iron reserves to form red blood cells. There are many clinical and laboratory similarities between ACD and IDA, but the treatment is very different. Transferrin saturation level can be used to differentiate between the two. This research is novel because it compares transferrin saturation levels in chronic and iron deficiency anemia. This study aims to determine the transferrin saturation level in patients with ACD and IDA. This research method uses a cross-sectional study. Data taken from medical records. The sample for this study were children with ACD and IDA aged 1 month to 18 years at Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital, Makassar. The results showed that the mean transferrin saturation value in DKA children (19.40%) was higher than that in ADB children (5.66%). The Mann-Whitney test showed that there was a significant difference between the two groups (p=0.001) with a transferrin saturation cut-off point between the DKA and IDA groups of 6.5% with a sensitivity of 73.6%, a specificity of 72.5%, positive predictive value (PPV) of 78%, negative predictive value (NPV) of 67%, and odds ratio (OR) of 19,476 (95% CI). In conclusion, transferrin saturation levels can differentiate IDA and ACD using a cut-off point of 6.5%.

Abstract

AbstractBeta thalassemia is an autosomal recessive genetic condition affecting people worldwide, including in Indonesia. Malondialdehyde levels, a peroxidation product, can be used to see if there is an iron buildup in the body due to lifelong transfusions. This research is a novelty because it analyzes malondialdehyde levels in children with beta-thalassemia: a cross-section study. The study aims to analyze malondialdehyde levels in children with beta-thalassemia. Methods in this study, a cross-sectional investigation was carried out at Dr. Hospital Wahidin Sudirohusodo, Makassar. The study was carried out between April and August of 2022. The study sample consisted of participants diagnosed with beta-thalassemia and non-thalassemia (controls) eligible to participate. Patients with and without beta-thalassemia had their malondialdehyde levels measured. The study results showed that the 60 children, aged six months until 18 years, were separated into two groups, 30 of whom had beta-thalassemia and another 30 who did not. With a significant P-value of 0.000, it was determined that beta-thalassemia children had more substantial amounts of malondialdehyde than children without the condition. Children with beta-thalassemia major had significantly higher malondialdehyde levels than those with beta-thalassemia HbE (P-value = 0.000). The conclusion was that malondialdehyde levels were more significant in beta-thalassemia kids than non-thalassemia kids. Malondialdehyde values are more effective in kids with beta-thalassemia major than those with beta-HbE thalassemia.Keywords: Malondialdehyde; Beta thalassemia; Transfusion; Children.

Abstract

The disposal of disposable masks has raised concerns among environmentalists. Disposable medical mask waste is currently easy to find because people throw it away everywhere in intact condition. When people throw away masks carelessly, it is difficult to distinguish the use of shows by people with excellent or diseased health conditions. The problem in this research is the improper management of medical masks. This research method aims to analyze the frequency of using masks when leaving the house and the practice of processing medical mask waste used by the people of Gorontalo City. This type of research is quantitative with a cross-sectional design and analytic descriptive method. The population in this study were all people living in the City of Gorontalo in 2 sub-districts, namely Kota Timur and Kota Utara, with a sample size of 379 samples from the City of East and 377 representatives from the City of North. The results showed that the processing of medical masks in Gorontalo City during the Covid-19 Pandemic was not on target; this was evidenced by the processing of medical mask waste in Kota Timur District, which was disposed of carelessly as much as 36.5%, while medical mask waste was processed by cutting and 16.7% were burnt for the East Kota sub-district and 15.9% processed and reused. This study concluded that in the processing of medical masks in Gorontalo City during the Covid-19 pandemic for the East City District, many were still disposed of carelessly. In contrast, most medical mask users were washed and reused for the North City District. In comparison, for the North sub-district, it was 4.2%; even out of the 377 respondents surveyed, 361 medical mask users washed and reused. This is very worrying for environmental experts because the repeated use of medical masks will particularly impact oral health.Keywords: Processing; Waste; Medical mask.

Abstract

More than 40% of mothers in the world, including Indonesia, have given food other than breast milk when the baby is less than six months old. Various factors can lead to early complementary feeding in Indonesia. The novelty of this research is because it examines about factors associated with early complementary feeding in Indonesia. This study aimed to determine the factors associated with early complementary feeding in Indonesia. This study used a quantitative design and meta-analytical analysis technique. Articles were included in this study, which were searched using Google Scholar, Garuda Portal, and ISJD databases. A total of 1,157 identification articles, with keywords ((early complementary feeding, complementary feeding administration in infants aged 0-6 months, early breastfeeding or prelacteal feeding) and (factors or factors related to, risk factors, knowledge) mother or education level, family support, support health workers, promotion of complementary feeding products, baby porridge, baby biscuits, formula or culture) and (cross sectional or case control) and (region in Indonesia)). The search was performed using the Indonesian language. Fifteen articles were systematically reviewed and included in this meta-analysis.  There is no significant relationship between maternal education level, family support, support from health workers and culture with early complementary feeding in Indonesia. Mothers’ low knowledge of exclusive breastfeeding and complementary feeding is one of the factors contributing to early complementary feeding in Indonesia. Conclusion is Mother which low knowledge is at risk 2.63 times to have early introduction of complementary feeding for baby (95% Cl; 1.14-6.09).

Abstract

Air, as one of the components of the environment, is the most essential requirement in supporting life. Metabolism in the bodies of living things cannot occur without air oxygen. Air can be grouped into outdoor air and indoor air. Indoor air quality dramatically affects human health because almost 90% of human life is indoors. Indoor air quality is a problem that needs attention because it will affect human health. The emergence of poor indoor air quality is generally caused by several things, namely lack of air ventilation (52%), sources of indoor pollution (16%), outdoor pollution (10%), microbes (5%), and building materials (4 %). ), others (13%). Sources of air pollution can also come from household activities, starting from the kitchen in the form of smoke. According to several studies, air pollution from kitchens contributes significantly to ARI. The novelty of this research is that it examines ambient air quality and generator emissions. The study aimed to analyze Ambient Air Quality and Generator Emissions at PT Rekso National Foods (MC Donalds) in Gorontalo City. The results showed that the surrounding air quality still met the requirements, both CO, TSP, PM10, PM 2.5 and generator emissions. However, the noise factor still does not meet the threshold standard. This study concludes that all variables still meet predetermined threshold values except for the noise variable, which exceeds the threshold value.

Abstract

Indonesia is a developing country with high maternal and infant mortality rates. One of the causes of infant mortality in Indonesia is the incidence of Low Birth Weight (LBW) of 38.85%. The number of neonatal deaths in Gorontalo City between 2018 - 2021 is 83 cases. The novelty of this research is the effect of LBW on neonatal death. This study aims to see the impact of LBW on neonatal mortality in Gorontalo City after controlling for maternal risk factors in the form of a history of complications and the frequency of ANC. The research design used was analytic with a case-control approach. The sample in this study consisted of 30 cases and 60 controls. The results of the survey show that from the effects of bivariate analysis, the history of complications variable has an Odds Ratio Crude value of 55 and an Odds Ratio Adjusted of 13 and the Mantel-Haenszel test value: p-value α (0.000 0.05). In contrast, Antenatal Care has an Odds Ratio Crude value of 28 and Odds Ratio Adjusted by 17 and the value of the Mantel-Haenszel test: p-value α (0.000 0.05). The Odds Ratio value for LBW is 20 with a p-value α (0.000 0.05). This study concludes that LBW has a 20 times risk of neonatal death (95% CI = 6.506 – 61.485)
