Abstract

Menstruation is a physiological process characterized by bleeding from the uterine wall in women, resulting in blood loss that lowers hemoglobin and hematocrit levels, which can lead to anemia. Anemia among adolescents can affect concentration, physical endurance, and academic performance. This study aimed to analyze the comparison of hemoglobin and hematocrit levels during and after menstruation. The method used was an observational analytical pre-experimental design employing a pretest-posttest one-group design. The study population consisted of 114 female students from Universitas 'Aisyiyah Yogyakarta, selected using purposive sampling with a sample size of 35 students. The instrument used was the Quick Hemoglobin Meter, employing the reflectance photometer method. Data were analyzed using the paired t-test with a significance level of p≤0.05. The analysis results showed a significant difference between hemoglobin and hematocrit levels during and after menstruation, with a significance value of 0.000 (p ≤0.05) respectively. This study concludes that there is a statistically significant difference between hemoglobin and hematocrit levels during and after menstruation in adolescent girls.

Abstract

Optimal growth and development in school-aged children are influenced by the provision of nutrition with appropriate quality and quantity. A balanced nutritional status, particularly during elementary school years, plays a critical role in supporting concentration, memory, and comprehension in the learning process. Poor nutritional status can lead to decreased academic achievement due to impaired cognitive and physical functions. Suboptimal brain development significantly affects students' learning abilities at school and may reduce productivity and creativity in adulthood.This study aims to examine the relationship between nutritional status and academic performance among students at GMIT Oeltua Elementary School, Taebenu Subdistrict, Kupang Regency. This research employed a quantitative method with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of all students in grades 4 to 6 at GMIT Oeltua Elementary School, totaling 96 students (total sampling). Data were analyzed using the chi-square test with the SPSS 29.0 application. The results showed that there was no significant relationship between nutritional status (weight-for-height) and academic performance, with a p-value of 0.727 (p > 0.05).

Abstract

Dental caries remains the most prevalent oral health problem globally, primarily caused by Streptococcus mutans colonization and biofilm formation on tooth surfaces. Resin-Modified Glass Ionomer Cement (RMGIC) is widely used as a restorative material due to its fluoride release and chemical adhesion to tooth structures. However, its lack of active antibacterial properties makes it vulnerable to secondary caries. Natural bioactive compounds are being explored as safer and more sustainable additives in dental materials. Ocimum basilicum (basil leaves) is known to contain eugenol, flavonoids, and tannins with significant antibacterial activity against S. mutans. This study aims to evaluate the potential of ethanolic basil leaf extract as an antibacterial additive to the RMGIC matrix. An experimental formulation was developed by incorporating the extract into RMGIC at various concentrations (0%, 0.5%, 1%, and 2%). Antibacterial efficacy was tested using the agar diffusion method against S. mutans, while surface hardness was assessed to determine mechanical integrity. Results showed a concentration-dependent increase in inhibition zones, with 1% extract yielding optimal antibacterial activity without significantly compromising surface hardness. These findings suggest that incorporating Ocimum basilicum extract into RMGIC could enhance its antibacterial properties and offer a novel approach for bioactive restorative materials in caries management.

Abstract

Adolescents are an age group that is vulnerable to nutritional problems such as obesity which can be caused by excessive macronutrient intake. This study aims to determine the differences in macronutrient intake between obese and non-obese adolescents in the North Surabaya City Region. The method used is case control. The sample consisted of 59 obese adolescents and 59 non-obese adolescents with sample selection using purposive sampling technique with gender matching method. Measurement of macronutrient intake using the Semi Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire instrument within a period of 3 months using interview technique. Tests on simple carbohydrate, complex carbohydrate, animal protein, and vegetable protein variables used the independent t-test because the data were normally distributed and on saturated fat and unsaturated fat variables used the Mann Whitney test because the data were not normally distributed. There were significant differences for simple carbohydrate intake (p=0,000), complex carbohydrate (p=0,044), animal protein (p=0,008), vegetable protein (p=0,014), saturated fat (p=0.000), and unsaturated fat (p=0,006).

Abstract

Dyslipidemia is one of the main risk factors for cardiovascular disease, which causes more than 17 million deaths globally each year. In Indonesia, the prevalence of dyslipidemia has shown a significant increase, particularly among the productive age population. Although there are indications of differences in prevalence based on gender, scientific evidence remains inconsistent. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the relationship between gender and the occurrence of dyslipidemia in the adult population. This research employed a cross-sectional study design with a quantitative approach, using secondary data from the medical records of adult patients at the Outpatient Department of RSUD Cibabat, Cimahi City, in 2022. A total of 151 subjects were selected based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data analysis was performed using the chi-square test and prevalence ratio (PR) calculation, with the assistance of SPSS version 30. Out of the 151 respondents, 76 individuals (50.3%) were identified as having dyslipidemia. The analysis revealed a significant association between gender and the incidence of dyslipidemia (p = 0.00), with males having a 2.23 times higher risk (PR = 2.23; 95% CI: 1.54–3.24) compared to females. There is a statistically significant relationship between gender and the occurrence of dyslipidemia, with a higher prevalence observed in males. This disparity may be influenced by biological, hormonal, and lifestyle factors. These findings support the need for promotive and preventive strategies that take gender aspects into account, including nutritional education, behavior modification, and early screening to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases associated with dyslipidemia.

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a major public health issue in Indonesia. In 2023, a total of 114,720 DHF cases were reported nationwide, with an incidence rate (IR) of 41.4 per 100,000 population—still far above the national target. East Kalimantan is one of the provinces with the highest IR (147.33/100,000). Samarinda City is among the top three areas with the highest number of cases. One of the affected areas in Samarinda is Temindung Public Health Center, which recorded 83 DHF cases, with 52% occurring in children aged 10–14 years, indicating that this age group is the most vulnerable to DHF. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors associated with DHF incidence among children aged 10–14 years in the working area of Temindung Public Health Center. A quantitative approach was used with a case-control study design and total sampling of 81 respondents, consisting of 27 cases and 54 controls. Data analysis was conducted using the Chi-Square test and Odds Ratio (OR) calculation. The results showed significant associations maternal knowledge (p= 0.001; OR= 11.440), PSN behavior (p= 0.001; OR= 7.231), cadre support (p= 0.022; OR= 3.571), and health facilities availability (p= 0.034; OR= 9.100). Therefore, it’s recommended to involve students as mosquito larvae monitors, conduct thematic health education with PSN practice demonstrations, and optimize the distribution of facilities through Musrenbang and CSR-based partnerships.

Abstract

Hepatitis B is a serious infectious disease that can cause progressive liver damage and affect the body's immune system. This study aims to describe the profile of leukocyte counts and types in Hepatitis B patients as an indicator of the body's immune response. The study was conducted as an observational study using a descriptive quantitative approach and a cross-sectional design on 70 medical records of patients at a hospital in Yogyakarta from January to December 2024. The analysis results showed that the most commonly increased leukocyte types were neutrophils (47.1%) and monocytes (10%), while lymphocytes (50%) and eosinophils (34.3%) were most frequently decreased. Basophils were mostly within normal limits (98.6%). These findings indicate the activation of the innate immune system through neutrophilia, as well as a decrease in the adaptive immune system due to lymphocytopenia. These results highlight the importance of hematological examinations as an additional parameter in assessing the infection phase and immune response of Hepatitis B patients. Leukocyte examinations can also serve as a basis for clinical decision-making, particularly in monitoring therapy and disease progression.

Abstract

Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, often leading to illness, disability, and death. Sikumana Health Center, Kupang City, recorded the highest TB cases with 140 cases in 2023, indicating that the control program has not been fully effective. This study aimed to describe the planning of the TB control program at the health center in 2023. A qualitative approach was used through in-depth interviews and documentation, involving four informants. Data were analyzed through collection, reduction, presentation, and conclusion. The findings show that human resources in the TB clinic are still limited, causing service gaps when the person in charge is absent. Facilities and infrastructure are adequate, and the planning stages—preparation, situation analysis, problem formulation, and drafting of RUK and RPK—have been carried out properly. However, challenges such as wide service coverage and community stigma that TB is hereditary may hinder treatment. The output consists of RUK and RPK documents, and the health center needs to strengthen education and counseling to improve public knowledge about TB.

Abstract

Cleaning service workers have a high risk of work accidents and exposure to hazardous materials, so the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is crucial. However, compliance with the use of PPE is still a challenge, especially in the informal sector and outsourcing companies that do not have an adequate K3 system. Objective: This study aims to analyze the level of compliance with the use of PPE in cleaning service workers and identify the factors that affect it. Methods: This study used a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews and direct observation of 15 cleaning service workers working at an outsourcing company in the office sector in North Kolaka Regency in January – March 2025. The data analysis technique is carried out thematically through data reduction, data presentation and conclusion drawn. Results: Results show that the majority of workers understand the importance of PPE and show a fairly high level of compliance. The main driving factors are awareness of personal safety and supervisory supervision, while inhibiting factors include PPE inconvenience, limited tools and lack of supervision. The most commonly used types of PPE are masks, gloves and safety shoes. Conclusion: Adherence to PPE use is influenced by individual, organizational and environmental factors. The company's active role is needed in providing appropriate PPE, supervising and forming a safety-oriented work culture. This research contributes to strengthening K3 policies in the informal sector.
