Abstract

The increasing number of suicide cases in Gorontalo shows the emergence of mental health problems in the community. The suicide perpetrators consist of adults, parents, and some even minors. The perpetrators committed this careless act due to various cause-and-effect factors such as Lack of love for parents, romance, economic factors, and so on. In addition, the perpetrators of suicide are not only women who are known as weak people but also carried out by men. Even the level of education and career owned by the perpetrators seems to no longer be able to prevent their desire to commit suicide. This condition should require serious attention from all stakeholders, especially the provincial government and all levels of society, considering that suicides occur in almost all districts and cities in Gorontalo province. The implementation of local government policies and actions is an inseparable part of efforts to realize development programs in the health sector, especially in the field of mental health, so that mental disorders or illnesses can be immediately detected and treated to minimize suicide as a sign of mental illness that occurs in the social environment. The research method used is a qualitative method of interviewing respondents. The conclusion is that many factors cause suicide, so it is essential to get a lot of attention from various parties, especially the local government.

Abstract

Prevalence of stunting in Indonesia is still major health problem. This study aimed to explore the feeding practices and knowledge of Indonesian mothers in feeding under-five children with malnutrition and the role of the government, health officers and health cadres in stunting prevention. This research conducted during the Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia to determine the situation of the pandemic on feeding children.  This qualitative study was conducted in the rural Tasikmalaya regency through 18 in-depth interviews with mothers (n=12), midwives (n=2) and health cadres (n=4). Data were analyzed using thematic analysis. Most of the participants had low education, most of the fathers worked as entrepreneurs with income above the minimum wage. The majority of the children were born with normal birth weight, while half of them were not exclusively breastfed, and most of the participants took iron pills during pregnancy. Feeding practices lack variety. Mother's knowledge about stunting is limited to only a superficial meaning. Stunting is still considered to be caused by short parental offspring, not a growth disorder related to poor nutrition. Despite the pandemic, fulfilling nutritional needs remains a mother's priority. Health workers and cadres have provided education about stunting and malnutrition, while the local government has made efforts to intervene but it is still not sufficient. The conclusion of this research is that mothers still lack knowledge and understanding about stunting, feeding practices are still not appropriate, and the pandemic situation has not changed the pattern of feeding practices for children.

Abstract

Air is necessary for the continuity of creature life, especially man. Air cleaning has benefits, but the most important and foremost thing is For the Respiratory man. Motorized vehicles have the biggest influence on worsening air pollution. The primary pollutants _ contained in exhaust gases in vehicles are carbon monoxide (CO) and particulate dust. Research purposes This knowledge of Carbon Monoxide (CO) concentration Analyzes risk ecological (HQ) consequences of CO exposure, analyzing the grand average exposure ( intake ) and level realtime risk (RQ). Carbon monoxide (CO) exposure is around the Gorontalo City area: Fifth Lake, Front Gorontalo State University campus, and shopping center. Types of research This is an observational study with an approach to Ecological Risk Assessment (ERA) and Health Risk Assessment (HRA) through study field (field studies). Research results show 3 locations are showing Carbon Monoxide (CO) levels have exceeded border brother or standard quality air ambient, with the presentation highest at location three, namely the shopping centers, with results of 39,568 μg /Nm 3. Based on the results, it can be known that CO levels in Gorontalo City are already included in category No safe because 100% of the sample location exceeds the Threshold Limit Value (NAV) based on PP No. 22 of 2021 concerning maintenance Protection and Management Environment for _ value (CO) is 10,000 μg /Nm 3 (10 mg/m 3 ). The calculation results in intake CO exposure realtime big risk health For all locations Good of the CO parameters incl in category risky with RQ 1. People living in the area location taking samples are expected to care more about health and prevention, like getting used to using a mask when working and reducing the habit smoke To minimize exposure to carbon monoxide and TSP.
