Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to assess food accessibility and its influencing factors among adults in Indonesia during the early COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: The research was cross-sectional and conducted using an online questionnaire that assessed sociodemographic characteristics, food access, physical access (enabling factors for individuals to reach food physically), financial access, social support, and coping strategies of the respondents. We included 439 adults, 358 females and 81 males, aged 20-62 years. Results: This research found that physical access difficulties (aOR=3.945; CI:1.652-9.421; p=0.002), unemployment status (aOR=3.104; CI:1.436-6.712; p=0.004), and lower education level (aOR=2.819; CI:1.036-7.672; p=0.042) were associated with increased inability to access food. Meanwhile, coping strategies for food insecurity conditions (aOR=0.634; CI:0.536-0.750; p<0.001) were protective of the inability to access food (R2=0.298). Conclusion: People with a high risk of unemployment and low education who will have difficulty accessing food in times of social restrictions should be protected.

Abstract

Purpose: Papua Province is Indonesia's largest contributor to malaria cases, accounting for 81% of the national malaria burden. These cases are concentrated in City of Jayapura, Jayapura Regency, Keerom, Mimika, Sarmi, Mamberamo Raya, Asmat, Boven Digoel, and the Yapen Islands. Given this high concentration, there is an urgent need for accelerated efforts to reduce malaria cases, particularly in these areas, to improve the overall malaria situation in Papua. Self-medication behavior plays a crucial role in malaria treatment, but fostering the desired knowledge and behavior around self-medication is challenging. This study surveyed the understanding of malaria and self-medication practices among the local population of Papua. Methods: The survey involved 100 respondents in areas with access to doctors and community health centers (Puskesmas) in Harapan Village, Jayapura Regency. Results: While there is strong knowledge about malaria transmission, significant gaps remain in safe self-medication practices, such as improper medication use and storage. These findings highlight the need for better public education on the importance of following medical instructions and seeking timely medical consultation when self-medication fails. Conclusion: Despite having relatively better access to a public health center, the local Papuan community still exhibits unsafe self-medication practices for malaria treatment. There is an urgent need to improve malaria treatment literacy and educate the community on proper treatment behaviors to ensure more effective malaria control.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to elucidate the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of older adult caregivers in Ngestiharjo, Bantul, Yogyakarta, Indonesia, towards older adult care and to discern the role of Community Health Workers (CHWs). Methods: A mixed-methods approach was employed between April and June 2023, encompassing quantitative data collection with a cross-sectional approach from 253 older adult caregivers via a pretested questionnaire and qualitative insights with a descriptive approach from focus group discussions with seven CHWs. The data were analyzed using descriptive analysis and thematic analysis. Results: The caregivers were predominantly female (67.2%) and over the age of 50 (46.6%), with the most common occupation being housekeeping (34.8%). Knowledge deficits were noted in several areas, with mean scores of 0.53 for depression signs, 0.56 for physical exercise, 0.73 for sleep quality, and 0.79 for fall risk. Caregivers' sleep quality and fall risk knowledge were better than depression and physical exercise. Attitude scores averaged 82.42 ± 20.42 (out of 125), showing moderate confidence in caregiving activities. Practices related to older adult care showed promising results, especially in maintaining a clean living environment (mean Score: 4.08 ± 0.86). The pivotal role of CHWs in bridging this knowledge gap and facilitating healthcare access was underscored. Conclusion: The study highlights the need for targeted educational programs to improve the knowledge and practices of caregivers, particularly in physical exercise and mental health areas. Strengthening the role of CHWs is essential to enhancing caregiving outcomes.

Abstract

Purpose: This study evaluates the mercury content in water bodies around artisanal gold mines. Methods: This study was conducted in water bodies in the Gledeg, Cimande, and Panaruban rivers, Paningkaban Village, Gumelar in Banyumas Regency as a sampling site for traditional gold mining wastewater by taking three sampling points at locations that are before, right, and after being polluted. Samples were then analyzed using the AAS (Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry) method to measure mercury content. The data obtained were compared with applicable water and sediment quality standards, such as those set by WHO. Sample analysis was conducted at the Research Laboratory of Jenderal Soedirman University. The research time from the preliminary survey, sampling, lab test, and data analysis was conducted from May to August 2024. Results: The results showed that the mercury content in water bodies ranged from 0.05489 mg/L to 12.3544 mg/L, exceeding the threshold set by WHO (0.001 µg/L), PP No. 82/2001, and Kepmen LH No. 2/1988 (0.001 mg/L). Conclusion: This study found significant levels of mercury contamination, and further mitigation and regulatory actions are required to protect the environment and the health of local communities.
