Abstract

Stunting remains a crucial public health problem in island regions such as the Maratua Islands District, Berau Regency, where poor sanitation and hygiene exacerbate chronic malnutrition in children under five. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the availability of family latrines, handwashing behavior, and stunting incidence. Using a quantitative, observational, analytic cross-sectional design, a total sample of 54 children under five in the region was sampled. Instruments included a validated handwashing behavior questionnaire, a standardized latrine observation sheet, and WHO anthropometric measurements; data analysis included univariate frequencies, and Spearman correlation (α=0.05). The results showed a 100% prevalence of stunting (75.9% stunted, 24.1% severely stunted), with a significant correlation for handwashing behavior (ρ=0.350, p=0.009) but not significant for family latrines (ρ=0.227, p=0.098). Handwashing behavior is a top intervention priority over infrastructure in remote areas.

Abstract

Digital transformation of health services through the Mobile JKN application faces significant adoption challenges in primary healthcare facilities. This study analyzes the relationship between trust in data security and the use of the Mobile JKN application among BPJS Health patients at Siriwini Public Health Center, considering the role of digital literacy as a moderating variable. Using a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design, this study involved 378 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data collection used a validated structured questionnaire with a Likert scale, and data analysis employed multiple linear regression and Moderated Regression Analysis. Results show that trust in data security has a significant positive relationship with Mobile JKN application usage (β=0.648; R²=0.360; p=0.000), contributing 36 percent to the variation in application usage. Digital literacy demonstrates a stronger influence with a regression coefficient of 0.723 (R²=0.431; p=0.000), explaining 43.1 percent of the variation in application usage. Moderation analysis reveals that digital literacy strengthens the relationship between trust and application usage (interaction coefficient=0.284; p=0.000), with an additional contribution of 7.7 percent. Findings indicate that low adoption of the Mobile JKN application (62.4 percent never used) is influenced by limited trust in data security systems and digital literacy gaps. Recommendations include strengthening transparency of data security policies, segmented digital literacy improvement programs, and developing interactive tutorial features in the application to facilitate digital health technology adoption in primary healthcare facilities.

Abstract

PT. XYZ is a manufacturing company specializing in the production of disc brakes and mufflers. This study identifies issues within the management of the M2FW Raw Material warehouse at PT. XYZ, stemming from the suboptimal implementation of the First-In, First-Out (FIFO) system. The failure to maintain an effective FIFO system has led to several serious problems, including material damage due to corrosion, discrepancies between recorded data and actual physical stock, and poor warehouse maintenance regarding cleanliness and organization. These findings underscore the urgent need for systemic and procedural improvements to ensure operational efficiency and prevent further losses.This research utilizes a quantitative descriptive approach using the Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) method to evaluate failure risks, alongside a 5W+1H analysis to identify root causes. Data collection results during the research indicate the presence of 465 pieces of Not Good (NG) products (0.17% of total stock) with total losses reaching IDR 8,688,270.97, as well as a physical stock discrepancy of 302 pieces. Based on the FMEA analysis, work methods that deviate from standard operating procedures were identified as the most critical failure factor, yielding the highest Risk Priority Number (RPN) of 270. Applying a Kaizen approach, the proposed improvements include: standardizing methods through daily checksheets for 5S and FIFO control; implementing a structured warehouse area monitoring schedule; and categorizing supplier delivery schedules based on part size (small, medium, large) to streamline the storage process. The implementation of these steps is expected to minimize financial losses, improve stock data accuracy, and ensure operational fluidity in accordance with Standard Operating Procedures (SOP).

Abstract

Adolescence is a transitional period of physical and mental development that is vulnerable to risky sexual behavior due to a lack of understanding regarding reproductive health. Religious institutions, such as the Child and Youth Fellowship (PAR), have a strategic role as a health education medium based on moral values. This study aims to analyze the level of knowledge and attitudes of adolescents toward reproductive health at PAR Marthen Luther Church, Sentani. This research is a quantitative descriptive study with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of all members of PAR Marthen Luther Church, Sentani, using a total sampling technique with 38 respondents. Data were collected using structured questionnaires. Knowledge assessment criteria were categorized into good (76-100%), moderate (60-75%), and poor (<60%), which were then analyzed univariately. The results showed that respondents' knowledge level was in the Good category in the aspects of understanding reproductive health (100%), reproductive organs (80%), fertile period and pregnancy (100%), maintenance of reproductive organs (80%), reproductive health problems (78%), sexual growth and development (75%), as well as menstruation and wet dreams (75%). However, the Moderate category was found in the aspects of adolescent nutrition (72%) and access to information (66.7%). Regarding attitudes, respondents showed positive results with an average achievement of 82%, where 97.4% of respondents supported the church as a place for reproductive health discussions. In general, respondents possess a good level of knowledge and attitudes, yet their understanding of how to access health information and nutrition still needs to be improved. This support indicates the importance of collaboration between health programs and the Child and Youth Fellowship to enhance the understanding of reproductive health.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) is a public health problem that imposes a substantial economic burden, particularly among patients with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) coinfection. This study aimed to analyze the differences in economic burden between TB patients with HIV and TB patients without HIV in Kupang City. This study employed an analytic observational design with a case–control approach. A total of 64 respondents were included, consisting of 34 TB–HIV patients as the case group and 34 TB patients without HIV as the control group, selected through purposive sampling based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The economic burden analyzed included direct non-medical costs, indirect costs, and the occurrence of catastrophic costs. The results showed differences in the total economic burden between TB patients and TB–HIV patients in Kupang City. TB–HIV patients tended to bear a higher economic burden than TB patients without HIV. These differences were mainly driven by higher direct non-medical costs and indirect costs, particularly income loss, asset sales, and indebtedness during the treatment period. In addition, the proportion of patients experiencing catastrophic costs was higher in the TB–HIV group than in the TB group. The study demonstrated a statistically significant difference in the total economic burden between the two groups. The median direct non-medical cost among TB–HIV patients was IDR 113,500.00, which was higher than that among TB patients without HIV (IDR 17,500.00; p < 0.001). The median indirect cost among TB–HIV patients was IDR 2,450,000.00, whereas it was IDR 0.00 among TB patients without HIV (p < 0.001). A total of 23.5% of TB–HIV patients experienced catastrophic costs, while none were observed among TB patients without HIV, with a significant association between HIV status and the occurrence of catastrophic costs (p < 0.003).

Abstract

Presbycusis or age-related hearing loss significantly affects the quality of life of the elderly, with systemic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia potentially accelerating its occurrence through vascular mechanisms. This study aims to analyze the relationship of these conditions to the occurrence of presbycusis in PROLANIS patients at the Kedungmundu Community Health Center. This observational analytical study with a cross-sectional design used 44 purposive samples aged ≥55 years. Data were collected through audiometry (ISO 1964 standard, bilateral >25 dB HTL) and medical record review, analyzed using the Chi-Square and Fisher's Exact tests (SPSS v.26, p<0.05). The results showed a prevalence of presbycusis of 68.2%, with a significant association for hypertension (p=0.000) and diabetes mellitus (p=0.006), but not for dyslipidemia (p=0.413). Hypertension and diabetes mellitus significantly increase the risk of presbycusis in PROLANIS patients, so routine audiometric screening in primary health facilities is necessary.

Abstract

Anemia is a condition in which the number of red blood cells decreases to meet the body's physiological needs. Anemia can be caused by a lack of nutrients that play a role in red blood cell formation. Anemia during pregnancy can cause complications that negatively impact both the mother and the fetus. Factors that can influence anemia include adherence to iron tablet consumption, which is related to the level of knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women regarding iron tablet consumption. The better the knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women, the better their adherence to iron tablet consumption to prevent anemia during pregnancy, and vice versa. This study aimed to determine whether education about anemia for pregnant women through flashcards and videos could improve the knowledge, attitudes, and adherence of pregnant women regarding iron tablet consumption to prevent anemia. This study was conducted from November to December 2025. This quantitative study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. The sample size for this study was 30 respondents. The instrument used was a questionnaire to assess knowledge, attitudes, and adherence to iron tablet consumption. The statistical test results using the non-parametric Wilcoxon test using SPSS obtained an Asymp. Sig. value of 0.000 or a p-value of <0.05, indicating a difference in the level of knowledge, attitudes, and compliance of pregnant women before and after being provided with counseling using flash cards and videos at the Sindang Danau Community Health Center. It can be concluded that there is a significant difference in the level of knowledge, attitudes, and compliance of pregnant women before and after being provided with counseling using flash cards and videos at the Sindang Danau Community Health Center.

Abstract

Rambai leaf (Baccaurea motleyana Müll. Arg.) is traditionally used to treat smallpox, diarrhea, and bruises, but it has the potential to be contaminated with heavy metals such as lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) which are toxic and accumulative. This study aims to determine the levels of Pb and Cd in rambai leaf and compare them with the safe limits of BPOM RI and WHO. The type of research is descriptive quantitative with Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) method using an air-acetylene flame system. The study population was all rambai plants in Nanga Kantuk Village, West Kalimantan, with purposive sampling. The main instrument was SSA contrAA 800, while data analysis was carried out through a linear calibration curve (R> 0.998), regression, and calculation of levels (mg/kg). The results showed Pb levels of 4.29 mg/kg and Cd <LOD (0.0131 mg/L). These results indicate that Pb metal was detected, while Cd was not detected quantitatively. In conclusion, the levels of Pb and Cd in rambai leaf simplicia are still below the safe limits of BPOM RI (Pb ≤ 10 mg/kg; Cd ≤ 0.3 mg/kg), so it is safe to use as a traditional medicine ingredient from the aspect of heavy metal contamination.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the awareness and implementation of legal protection for nursing personnel at Dharma Yadnya General Hospital in Denpasar. The research is motivated by the high legal risks faced by nurses due to unclear boundaries of medical authority and the weak legal protection system within hospital institutions. The study employs an empirical legal method with a qualitative descriptive approach through in-depth interviews with nurses and hospital management, as well as document analysis of relevant regulations and internal policies. The findings reveal that legal protection for nursing personnel at Dharma Yadnya Hospital remains general in nature, lacks a specific legal assistance unit, and has no clear internal guidelines. Legal, structural, and cultural factors significantly influence the effectiveness of legal protection, where the hospital’s adherence to the Tri Hita Karana philosophy often creates a dilemma between maintaining harmony and asserting legal rights. In conclusion, strengthening legal protection for nurses requires the establishment of a legal protection unit, the formulation of internal delegation guidelines, and continuous legal awareness training grounded in professional and spiritual values.
