Abstract

In Indonesia, anemia remains a pressing public health problem among adolescent girls, with a prevalence rate of 32% based on the Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) 2018. This highlights anemia as an ongoing issue that requires continuous attention. Adolescent girls are particularly vulnerable because iron needs increase during growth, and blood loss occurs regularly through menstruation. Inadequate intake of nutritious foods, poor adherence to iron supplementation (TTD), limited knowledge, and economic barriers may further contribute to this problem. This cross-sectional study investigated the determinants of anemia among adolescent girls attending a public vocational high school in Tebet, Jakarta, Indonesia. A total of 221 Grade 11 students were included through total sampling. Anemia status (Hb < 12 g/dL) was obtained from puskesmas screening, while data on knowledge, nutritional status, menstrual pattern, maternal education, socioeconomic status, and iron supplement (TTD) intake were collected via a structured questionnaire. Chi-square analysis revealed significant associations between anemia and knowledge level, menstrual pattern, nutritional status, adherence to TTD, maternal education level, and socioeconomic status (p < 0.05). The findings emphasize the need for strengthened school-based anemia prevention through nutrition education, routine Hb screening, and parent-involved adherence monitoring, particularly among low-income students. The findings indicate the need for schools and primary health centers (puskesmas) to strengthen education on anemia and adolescent nutrition, implement routine screening (nutritional status and menstrual pattern), and improve adherence to TTD through regular mentoring that involves parents, particularly mothers, and targeted support for students from low-income households.

Abstract

Elementary school students in earthquake-prone regions often lack adequate preparedness knowledge due to limited engagement with conventional learning materials. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of animated videos in enhancing earthquake disaster preparedness knowledge among elementary school students. We employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach. The study was conducted in July 2025 at SDN 23 Pasir Sebelah, Padang, selecting 50 students from grades III to V using purposive sampling. Participants received a 15-minute educational intervention that used a multisensory animated video. Students’ knowledge significantly improved following the intervention, as revealed by a paired t-test (p < 0.001). The animated video effectively communicated key concepts, including earthquake causes, early warning signs, and self-rescue techniques, resulting in a substantial increase in post-test scores compared to baseline scores. Animated video media are highly effective educational tools that align with the cognitive learning needs of elementary school students. Educational policymakers could explore integrating animated simulations into the national disaster mitigation curriculum to develop a generation that is better equipped to handle emergencies.

Abstract

Microplastic pollution poses a critical global public health challenge, with Indonesia as a major contributor. While ecological impacts are studied, direct human health effects remain underexplored locally. Evidence shows widespread microplastic contamination in essential resources, leading to human exposure and potential health risks like oxidative stress and endocrine disruption. Current Indonesian research is fragmented, lacking standardized methodologies and comprehensive health risk assessments. An integrated EcoHealth approach, combining environmental monitoring with clinical toxicology and public health frameworks, is imperative. Establishing standardized protocols and probabilistic risk models is crucial for effective policy development and safeguarding Indonesia's public health and blue economy.
