Abstract

Background: Presenteeism is the behavior of workers who are present to do their work when they experience health problems. Presenteeism behavior is quite worrying because it can harm the company and also worsen health. This research aims to determine the most dominant factors in the level of presenteeism at Institution X in 2023. Methods: The research used a cross-sectional study design and data was obtained directly by filling out a questionnaire (primary data). The research was conducted in November – December 2023 using a sample of 205 PPNPN employees at a Non-Ministerial Government Institution in Central Jakarta. Data analysis used the Chi-Square and Multiple Logistic Regression tests to achieve research objectives. Findings: Univariate analysis revealed that 59.5% of employees experienced high presenteeism, while 67.3% exhibited workaholic tendencies. After being controlled for job satisfaction, the analysis results show that workaholic ($P < 0.001$; POR = 3.703; 95% CI = 1.8–7.6) is the factor that dominates the level of presenteeism. Furthermore, the analysis confirmed that demographic characteristics (gender, age, education, and marital status) and job insecurity did not have a significant relationship with presenteeism levels ($P > 0.05$). Conclusion: The existence of presenteeism behavior can be a concern for institutions to create a good work environment so that the prevalence of presenteeism can decrease and employees maintain productivity without harming their health. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study identifies workaholism as the most dominant factor influencing presenteeism among non-ministerial government employees, highlighting the importance of addressing workplace culture in mitigating health-related productivity loss.

Abstract

Background: West Kalimantan Province ranks 15th in tuberculosis case notification rates and has the highest rate among the 34 provinces in Indonesia. One of the contributing factors to the incidence of tuberculosis is the poor behavior and attitudes of families. Therefore, family knowledge regarding the prevention of pulmonary tuberculosis transmission is important to be studied further. Methods: This study employed a quantitative research method using a cross-sectional approach. Data were collected through questionnaires. The sample consisted of the entire population included in the study, totaling 22 respondents. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate analysis techniques. Findings: The study showed that most respondents had good knowledge about pulmonary tuberculosis. Furthermore, respondents demonstrated good preventive behaviors against tuberculosis transmission, which were influenced by their adequate knowledge. Conclusion: This study concludes that there is a significant relationship between family knowledge and preventive behaviors toward pulmonary tuberculosis transmission in the Infectious Disease Ward of Regional General Hospital. Novelty/Originality of this article: This research focuses on the family context in disease prevention and health promotion. In addition, the study uses the most recent data relevant to current public health needs, providing updated evidence that supports the continuity of tuberculosis prevention research.

Abstract

Background: Underground mining exposes workers to respirable dust, a known cause of various respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pneumoconiosis. Despite extensive research, significant gaps remain in understanding the global impact of dust exposure on miners' health. Method: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the impact of dust exposure on respiratory health outcomes among underground miners, focusing on original research articles involving underground miners published between 2000 and 2025. Fifteen studies were included, evaluating outcomes such as lung function decline (FEV₁, FVC), COPD, and pneumoconiosis. Finding: The analysis revealed significant reductions in lung function (FEV₁) linked to dust exposure, with a pooled mean difference of -7.33 (95% CI: -9.93 to -4.72). However, the effect on FVC was minimal. Limitations in study design, including heterogeneous exposure measures and confounding factors, may influence the results. Concusion: Our results underscore the urgent need for enhanced dust control measures, better health surveillance, and stricter regulatory standards to protect miners’ respiratory health. Policymakers and mining companies should prioritize these measures to mitigate the significant health risks posed by dust exposure. Future research should explore the combined effects of dust and other occupational hazards and the long-term effectiveness of mitigation strategies. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study provides an updated meta-analysis encompassing research through 2025, offering a contemporary global perspective on dust-induced lung decline.

Abstract

Background: Diarrhea is a public health problem that remains a serious concern worldwide, including in Indonesia. Diarrhea can affect all age groups, both children and adults, but toddlers are the most vulnerable to this disease due to children's immature immune systems and their dependence on parents for personal and environmental hygiene. According to data from the Semarang City Health Office in 2023, the number of diarrhea cases showed a fluctuating trend from 2016 to 2023. In 2018, there were 50,021 cases recorded, decreasing to 21,765 cases in 2021, but increasing again to 36,534 cases in 2023, where 29.1% were cases in toddlers. This data indicates that children are still the most vulnerable group to diarrheal disease. Method: This study used a comparative descriptive design with secondary data. The data collection technique uses data sources derived from the Semarang City Health Office profile which includes 5 community-based total sanitation Pillars (Pillar 1: SBS, Pillar 2: CTPS, Pillar 3: PAMMRT, Pillar 4: PSRT, Pillar 5: PLCRT) as well as additional indicators (PKURT and Access to Healthy Homes) from 37 Community Health Centers and 16 Districts. Data is presented as a percentage of households from a total of 552,978 households, while data on total and toddler diarrhea cases (2018–2023) are presented in the form of bar charts. Finding: The achievement of community-based total sanitation in Pillar 1 (Stop Open Defecation) has reached 100%. This is followed by Pillar 2 (CTPS) at 94.02%, Pillar 3 (PAMM-RT) at 92.97%, Pillar 4 (PSRT) at 89.08%, and the lowest, Pillar 5 (PLCRT) at 88.50%. Additional indicators on Access to Healthy Homes reached 91.79%, while Household Air Quality Management (PKURT) had the lowest achievement at 67.2%. In 2018, diarrhea cases peaked at 50,021, drastically decreased in 2021 to 21,765, and then toddler diarrhea cases reached an average of around 27% to 35% of the total cases. Conclusion: The community-based total sanitation achievement in Semarang City shows that pillar 1 (SBS) has successfully reached 100% and is followed by pillar 2 (CTPS) and pillar 5 (PLCRT) which stopped the potential for control in diarrhea cases (especially seen in the 2020-2021 period). However, there was an increase in diarrhea cases in 2022-2023 followed by behavior in pillar 4 (PSRT) and additional indicators  still being the weakest link in environmental-based disease prevention efforts. Novelty/Originality of this article: This research is a study that is still rarely conducted from previous research. This study includes the achievement of the five community-based total sanitation pillars and additional indicators with long-term diarrhea case trends starting from 2016–2023 and identifies the influence of behavioral and spatial factors (between health centers) on disease closure.
