Abstract

Background: Stunting is a nutritional issue that has been a major focus of the Indonesian government. Stunting is caused by chronic malnutrition. Stunting can have both short-term and long-term impacts. Betara Kiri Village has the highest stunting rate. Purpose: This study aims to determine the factors associated with stunting in toddlers aged 12-59 months in Betara Kiri Village, within the Parit Deli Community Health Center (Puskesmas) working area, in 2024. Method: This research is a quantitative study with a case-control design. Data analysis was performed using the chi-square test. The case samples of this study were toddlers aged 12–59 months who experienced stunting and the control samples were toddlers aged 12–59 months who did not experience stunting, with a total sample of 60 consisting of 20 cases and 40 controls from a total population of 134. Data collection was carried out by measuring the height/height of toddlers and interviews using questionnaires. This study took place in Betara Kiri Village, within the working area of ​​the Parit Deli Community Health Center, from July 16, 2024 to September 8, 2025. Results: Most toddlers were exclusively breastfed (75.0%) and had no history of infection (85.0%). More than half of the mothers had low education (51.7%) and were short in stature (51.7%), while the majority attended ANC visits (81.7%), had a low-risk gestational age (75.0%), normal birth spacing (90.0%), low parity (93.3%), and family income above the minimum wage () (63.3%). This study found that exclusive breastfeeding (p=0.027), history of ANC visits (p=0.031), family income (p=0.004), history of infectious diseases (p=0.464), maternal education level (p=0.083), maternal age during pregnancy (p=0.114), birth spacing (p=0.089), parity (p=0.595) and maternal height (p=0.089) were related to the results. Conclusion: It can be concluded that exclusive breastfeeding, history of ANC visits, and family income are associated with stunting. It is hoped that community health centers can improve the quality of exclusive breastfeeding, monitor regular ANC visits, and provide education to low-income families about the importance of balanced nutrition.

Abstract

Background: Cervical cancer is one of the leading causes of death among women in Indonesia, mostly due to delayed diagnosis. Early detection is a key step in reducing mortality rates, but conventional methods such as Pap smears and visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) still face obstacles such as limited medical personnel, subjectivity of results, and low screening coverage in remote areas. Purpose: to analyze the potential application of artificial intelligence (AI) as an innovative solution to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of early detection of cervical cancer in Indonesia. Method: The study used a descriptive qualitative approach through a literature review of scientific journals, international agency reports (WHO, GLOBOCAN), and national policies related to digital health transformation. Results: The study shows that the application of deep learning-based AI can increase the sensitivity and specificity of detection to over 90%, speed up the analysis process from day to minute, and reduce the operational costs of examinations by up to 40%. In addition, AI has the potential to expand the scope of screening and strengthen the national health referral system through digital integration and cloud-based telemedicine. However, the main challenges faced include data privacy issues, algorithmic bias, legal liability, and digital infrastructure gaps that must be addressed with strong ethical policies and oversight. Conclusion: The application of AI in early detection of cervical cancer is a strategic step towards a more equitable, efficient, and sustainable healthcare system in Indonesia, provided that it is implemented responsibly, transparently, and with a focus on patient safety.

Abstract

Background: Hope is an essential psychological resource that enables children with cancer to cope with the stress and uncertainty of long-term treatment. However, research focusing on the level of hope among children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) in Indonesia or Southeast Asia remains limited, as most studies have centered on adults or on depression and anxiety rather than hope. Understanding hope among pediatric cancer patients is crucial for developing psychosocial interventions that enhance emotional resilience and treatment adherence. Purpose: to describe the levels of hope among children under 18 years old with ALL who were undergoing chemotherapy. Method: This was a quantitative descriptive study involving 66 respondents selected through convenience sampling. Data were collected using the Children’s Hope Scale (CHS), consisting of six items that assess agency and pathway thinking. Ethical approval and parental consent were obtained prior to data collection. Descriptive statistics were applied to analyze respondents’ demographic characteristics and hope scores. Result: The findings showed that most respondents were aged 8–12 years (56.1%), male (59.1%), and diagnosed with high-risk ALL (89.4%). More than half (54.5%) demonstrated a high level of hope, while 45.5% had a low level of hope. Younger children exhibited higher hope levels compared to adolescents. The mean hope score was 22.9 ± 3.95, with a median of 23 and a score range of 16–32, indicating a moderate to high overall level of hope. Conclusion: Most children with ALL in this study maintained a moderate to high level of hope during chemotherapy. These results emphasize the importance of assessing hope as part of psychosocial care. Strengthening hope through supportive communication and family-centered interventions can enhance children’s PWB and promote better adherence throughout the treatment process.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is a condition where children experience stunted growth due to chronic malnutrition, especially during the first 1.000 days of life. This condition can have long-term impacts on a child's physical, cognitive, and social development. According to data from the World Health Organization (WHO), globally, about 22% of children under five years old experience stunting, with higher prevalence found in developing countries, including Indonesia. In Indonesia, the prevalence of stunting reached 24.4% in 2021, making it one of the significant public health challenges. Data from the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia shows that various factors contribute to stunting, including environment, economy, and parental characteristics, particularly education level. Research indicates that parents with higher education levels tend to understand the importance of nutrition and child health better, thus reducing the risk of stunting. In Lampung Province, the prevalence of stunting has also become a concern, with a figure reaching 28.3% in 2022. Geographic, social, and economic factors in Lampung can affect parents' knowledge and behavior in maintaining children's health. Purpose: to determine the distribution of risk factors for stunting in toddlers in Noto Harjo village. The specific objective is to determine the prevalence of stunting incidents in toddlers in Noto Harjo village based on Z-Score values, to detect parental characteristics including education level and child development monitoring behavior. Method: This study is designed as quantitative research using a survey design. The total population and sample of all toddlers in the Noto Harjo sub-district is 224 people, with 112 samples taken through observation techniques (height measurement), interviews with the parents of toddlers, and documentation studies. Data analysis uses a descriptive approach. Results: The research results show that the stunting rate is 21.4 percent, which is almost the same as the prevalence of stunting in Indonesia (21.6 percent). However, the government aims to achieve a stunting rate of 14% by 2024. To achieve this, various collaborative efforts are needed. Conclusion: The research results show that the prevalence of stunting in toddlers in Notoharjo Village reaches 21.4%. This is nearly equivalent to the national prevalence of stunting in Indonesia, which stands at 21.6%. However, this prevalence is still far above the government target of 14% by 2024. This indicates that stunting requires more intensive handling, which includes nutritional interventions, raising community awareness, and better policy support. It is hoped that all parties will work together to achieve the stunting reduction target, so that children in Indonesia can grow up healthy and optimally.

Abstract

Background: Preeclampsia is a serious pregnancy complication and a major contributor to maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality worldwide, including in Indonesia. This condition is generally characterized by hypertension that appears after >20 weeks of gestation, accompanied by proteinuria, and can progress to eclampsia if not treated appropriately. Purpose: to determine the relationship between age, parity, gestational age, and occupation with the incidence of preeclampsia in pregnant women. Method: Study quantitative with a cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 58 pregnant women with preeclampsia and was selected using a total sampling technique. Bivariate analysis was performed using the chi-square test and odds ratio (OR). Results: The results showed a significant relationship between age (p = 0.002; OR = 6.222), parity (p = 0.002; OR = 6.182), and gestational age (p = 0.003; OR = 7.104) with the incidence of preeclampsia. Meanwhile, there was no significant association between occupation and the incidence of preeclampsia (p = 0.227; OR = 0.577). conclusion: there is a significant association between age, parity, and gestational age with the incidence of preeclampsia. It is hoped that health workers can improve early detection and more intensive monitoring of high-risk pregnant women based on age, parity, and gestational age to prevent the progression of preeclampsia to more severe conditions.

Abstract

Background: Husband support is a crucial factor in the success of exclusive breastfeeding, yet many husbands have limited knowledge and awareness of its importance. Education through booklets has been identified as an effective way to increase this support. Purpose: To determine the effect of using booklets on increasing husband support for exclusive breastfeeding among breastfeeding mothers at the Cireunghas Public Health Center in 2025. Method: This was a quasi-experimental study with a pre-test and post-test design with a control group, conducted in April 2025. The sample consisted of 30 husbands of breastfeeding mothers. Data were analyzed using an independent t-test. Results: Breast milk production increased from 80 ml (40%) to 120 ml (60%) after the intervention, demonstrating the effectiveness of the intervention in increasing breast milk production. In the intervention group, husband support significantly increased by 53% (from 47% to 100%) after the booklet was provided (p=0.05). Meanwhile, in the control group, support increased by only 7% (from 27% to 33%). These results indicate that the booklet is effective in increasing husbands' understanding and attitudes toward the importance of exclusive breastfeeding. Conclusion: The booklet has been shown to be effective in increasing husbands' knowledge, understanding, and support. Suggestion: It is hoped that husbands will continue to improve their understanding and involvement in supporting exclusive breastfeeding.
