Abstract

Background: The Double Burden of Nutrition (DBGH) is a public health issue in urban areas of Indonesia. Hospitals are in a unique position to assess the clinical effects of DBGH. However, there are strong suspicions that medical records in hospitals significantly underreport this information. This situation hides the full extent of the problem, which then hinders the proper allocation of resourcesObjectives: T(1) to describe the epidemiological features of pediatric patients with DBGH (Malnutrition/E40-E46 and Obesity/E66) at Muhammadiyah General Hospital Malang (RSUMM) from 2019 to 2025, including diagnosed prevalence, age distribution, and sex; (2) to critically evaluate the diagnosed prevalence (N=1,092) by comparing it to community prevalence, considering the possibility of under-reporting; and (3) to analyze the patterns of comorbidities in the cases that were successfully recorded.Methods: This study used a quantitative, descriptive epidemiological design, specifically a cross-sectional approach. Data were gathered from the electronic medical records of pediatric patients, aged 0-18 years, who had been diagnosed with malnutrition (ICD-10 codes E40-E46) or obesity (E66) at RSUMM between January 1, 2019, and December 31, 2025. This process yielded a total sample size (N) of 1,092 cases.Results During the study, we found 1,092 cases of BGG in the medical records. Of the total, 671 cases (61.4%) were classified as Malnutrition (E40-E46), while 421 cases (38.6%) were classified as Obesity (E66). The highest rate of diagnosed cases was found in the 0-5 age group, which had a rate of 65.9%. Although the 1,092 cases seem substantial and are increasing, a critical examination reveals that this number is considerably lower than estimates of the community-level burden of BGG (e.g., national stunting prevalence in 2023 SKI >20%), suggesting considerable under-reporting. Analysis of the data shows a significant increase in BGG cases, going from 100 cases in 2019 to 250 cases by 2024. Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI/Pneumonia) and Diarrhea (Gastroenteritis) are the most common health problems seen with BGG.

Abstract

Background: Patients with Cleft Lip (CL) and Cleft Lip and Palate (CLP) have difficulties with eating and breastfeeding, which makes them more susceptible to malnutrition (measured using the z-score parameter) and infections. CLP is caused by inappropriate levator palatini muscles and velopharyngeal insufficiency, which can lead to infection, inflammation, and allergies that can affect the immune system. The immune system responds to these components with leukocytes, particularly neutrophils, eosinophils, and lymphocytes. Objective: To determine the difference in complete blood results and nutritional status between cleft lip and cleft palate at the CLP Centre Faculty of Medicine, University of Muhammadiyah Malang in 2020-2022.    Methods: The research was conducted at the CLP Centre FK UMM using observational methods with a total sample size.      Results: The study found that males had a higher prevalence of CL and CLP. The most common z-score for patients with CL and CLP was below average for those under 24 months old, and above average for those over 35 months old. Extremely low z-scores were more common in CLP patients aged between 24 and 35 months. Patients with CL and CLP were less likely to have anemia, and there was no correlation between the z-score and anemia. Patients below 2 years old with CL and CLP had normal white blood cell counts, while those over 2 years old had higher levels of white blood cells, mainly neutrophils and lymphocytes. Eosinophilia, a condition with high levels of eosinophils, occurred only in patients with CL. Only lymphocytes showed statistically significant hematological values, with a p-value of 0.021 (p<0.05).             Conclusion: It has been found that patients with CL and CLP have a statistically significant difference in their lymphocyte cells. Most cases of nutritional status issues occur in children younger than 24 months with a normal z-score. In contrast, children aged 24-35 months with an inadequate z-score are more likely to have nutritional issues in cases of CLP.

Abstract

Background: Electrolyte imbalances can manifest with diffuse brain dysfunction, seizure and consequently EEG abnormalities. Electrolyte disturbances is important in determining the degree of EEG abnormality. Objective: This study investigated the difference in the level serum electrolyte in idiopathic and symptomatic epilepsy. It also correlated the serum electrolyte levels with abnormality EEG. Methods: This is an observational analytical using a cross-sectional study. This study used secondary data from a medical record with inclusion and exclusion criteria patients. The subjects are all epileptic patients undergoing EEG examination at Gambiran General Hospital from June-August 2024. The subject was grouped into idiopathic and symptomatic epilepsy. The results of EEG were grouped into normal, abnormal II and III.  The examination of serum electrolyte levels was conducted on within one hour before the EEG examination. Results: We recruited 90 subjects (38 males and 52 females) were diagnosed epilepsy, 65 idiopathic and 25 symptomatic. The age 12-68 years old.  Among 90 patients, 69 had normal EEG and 21 had abnormal EEG (8 abnormal II and 13 abnormal III). Only the mean serum calcium in symptomatic epilepsy patients was higher than in the idiopathic (2,32±0,39 mmol/L vs 2,23±0,34 mmol/L). All of the mean serum electrolyte was lower in patient with abnormal EEG than the normal one. Kruskal-Wallis Correlation Test showed no significant difference between mean serum electrolyte levels with EEG result. Conclusion: There is no relationship between serum electrolyte levels with abnormality EEG in idiopathic and symptomatic epilepsy patients.

Abstract

This study aims to assess the readiness of RSUD Kabupaten Raja Ampat for Electronic Medical Records (EMR) implementation using the DOQ-IT framework. The research focuses on four domains: Human Resources, Organizational Culture, Governance & Leadership, and Technology Infrastructure. A cross-sectional survey was conducted involving 150 respondents from various hospital departments. The findings indicate varying levels of readiness across domains, with the highest readiness observed in Governance & Leadership (76%), followed by Organizational Culture (70%), Human Resources (64%), and Technology Infrastructure (58%). Critical challenges include inadequate training, poor communication, and outdated infrastructure. Governance & Leadership demonstrated the strongest readiness due to management support, while Technology Infrastructure showed the lowest readiness due to network issues and hardware limitations. This study concludes that RSUD Kabupaten Raja Ampat is partially ready for EMR implementation. Effective strategies to address identified barriers include enhancing training programs, improving communication practices, and investing in updated infrastructure to achieve full readiness.

Abstract

Introduction: Academic stress is common among medical students, particularly women who may be hormonally more susceptible. Primary dysmenorrhea—menstrual pain without pelvic pathology—is often intensified by stress and can hinder academic performance. Objective: To examine the relationship between academic stress and primary dysmenorrhea among female medical students at Tanjungpura University. Methods: This analytical observational study used a cross-sectional design involving 123 female medical students selected through proportionate stratified random sampling. Academic stress was measured using the Medical Student Stress Questionnaire (MSSQ), and menstrual pain was assessed with the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Data were analyzed using the Spearman correlation test. Result: Most respondents reported severe academic stress (57.7%) and mild dysmenorrhea (44.7%). A moderate positive correlation was found between academic stress and dysmenorrhea severity (r = 0.302; p = 0.0001). Conclusion: A meaningful relationship exists between academic stress and the severity of primary dysmenorrhea in female medical students. The use of MSSQ highlights academic stressors specific to medical training. Targeted stress management strategies may help reduce menstrual pain and improve student well-being.

Abstract

Background: The increase in global obesity rates seems to be a consequence of changes in the global food system that lead to a shift in dietary patterns from traditional foods to fast food consumption. Increasing evidence from cross-sectional studies conducted around the world has shown that consumption of fast food is consistently associated with changes in body weight and obesity. The distribution of fat in different countries is influenced by genetic factors and external or environmental factors such as diet and physical activity. The results show that the Chinese have a higher body fat percentage than the Europeans. Genes are important factors that make up the human body, but the environment also plays an important role. This environment includes behavior or lifestyle patterns. Objective: To determine the effect of age and gender on body fat mass of UMM employees Methods: This research is an analytic observational study with the Cross Sectional method which was conducted to determine the effect of age and gender on fat mass in UMM employees. The total sample in this study was 50 employees. Data collection was carried out by filling out questionnaires and measuring using a microtoise and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). Results: The results of the correlation test of age data on body fat mass found that there was no relationship between age and fat mass. Meanwhile, the influence of gender on body fat mass found a relationship between gender and body fat mass in employees of the University of Muhammadiyah Malang. Conclusion: There was no effect of age on body fat mass of UMM employees and there was an effect of gender on body fat mass of UMM employees.
