Adherence to the treatment regimen is a key factor in controlling blood pressure and preventing potentially fatal complications. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between adherence to medication consumption and blood pressure in hypertension sufferers. This study used a cross-sectional design involving 40 respondents who were diagnosed with hypertension at several health centers in Nganjuk City. Data was collected through a questionnaire that measured the patient's level of compliance with taking antihypertensive drugs and blood pressure checks carried out by medical personnel. The results of the analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between the level of adherence to taking medication and the level of blood pressure control (p < 0.05). Patients who have a high level of compliance tend to have better controlled blood pressure compared to patients who are not compliant.

<![CDATA[Tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant public health issue in Indonesia. This infectious disease burdens the affected individuals and impacts their families and the wider community. This study aims to determine the relationship between close contact and environmental factors with the incidence of Tuberculosis (TB) in the working area of Puskesmas Tekung. This quantitative research employs an analytical correlation design. The sample consists of 30 respondents who received services at the general clinic of Puskesmas Tekung, selected using accidental sampling techniques. The results show that most respondents (21 or 70%) did not have close contact with TB patients. Additionally, most respondents (22 or 73.3%) lived in a healthy environment. TB-negative results were found in 19 respondents (63.3%). Bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test revealed a significant relationship between close contact and the incidence of TB with a p-value of 0.000. A similar significant relationship was found between environmental factors and TB incidence, where respondents living in a healthy environment were less likely to contract TB (p=0.000). The proposed solution is to enhance educational programs and public outreach about maintaining distance from TB patients and creating a healthy environment. This can be achieved through seminars, educational material distribution, and health campaigns at the village level. Additionally, it is crucial to promote clean living habits, including mask usage and proper coughing etiquette, and to strengthen environmental sanitation efforts to reduce the risk of TB transmission.]]>
