Abstract

Employee performance in the field of health and pharmaceutical services plays a crucial role in determining the quality of services provided to the community. In the Southeast Sulawesi Provincial Health Office, various internal and external factors are believed to influence employee performance, but there has not been much research that comprehensively examines these factors. This study aims to identify and analyze factors related to employee performance in the health and pharmaceutical services sector at the Southeast Sulawesi Provincial Health Office. This study uses a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. This study was conducted from July 23 to August 14, 2025, at the Southeast Sulawesi Provincial Health Office. The sample consisted of 34 respondents selected through total sampling. Data analysis was performed using the chi-square test. The results of the study show that there is a relationship between educational characteristics (p value = 0.007), length of service (p value = 0.007), and motivation (p value = 0.000) with the performance of employees in the health and pharmaceutical services sector of the Southeast Sulawesi Provincial Health Office in 2024. There was no relationship between age (p value = 0.427) and gender (p value = 0.363) characteristics and the performance of employees in the health and pharmaceutical services sector of the Southeast Sulawesi Provincial Health Office. Factors such as motivation, training, and work environment play an important role in determining the performance of employees in the health and pharmaceutical services sector at the Southeast Sulawesi Provincial Health Office. Therefore, improving training programs and efforts to increase employee motivation are recommended to improve overall performance.

Abstract

This study analyzes the burden on health services and the level of regional preparedness during the 2025 flood disaster in North Sumatra Province. Using a descriptive-analytic design with secondary data obtained from official disaster reports, this research examines the number of affected households, displaced populations, mortality, and emergency response status across 18 districts and cities. Findings show significant variations in the magnitude of impacts, with regions experiencing higher numbers of affected populations demonstrating greater pressure on health services, particularly in emergency care, communicable disease prevention, and shelter-based health management. Furthermore, regions that activated emergency response status earlier and demonstrated stronger preparedness were found to experience lower health burdens. These results highlight the importance of integrating disaster preparedness into local health system planning to strengthen resilience against hydrometeorological disasters. The study emphasizes the need for improved intersectoral coordination, enhanced health logistics capacity, and readiness of health personnel to respond effectively to large-scale emergencies.

Abstract

Anemia in pregnant women remains a global public health problem, particularly in developing countries. Iron supplementation is the main intervention recommended for the prevention and management of anemia during pregnancy. This literature review aims to analyze the effectiveness of iron supplementation in preventing anemia among pregnant women using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) approach. Article searches were conducted through scientific databases and the attached journals, with a publication range from 2019 to 2024. The selection process resulted in 10 articles that met the inclusion criteria. Narrative synthesis showed that iron supplementation, whether administered alone or combined with vitamin C or other supportive nutritional interventions, was effective in increasing hemoglobin levels in pregnant women. Adherence to supplementation and nutritional education support were significant factors influencing the success of the intervention.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is one of the health problems whose incidence is increasing and is often complained about by people around the world. Globally, Indonesia ranks fifth in the number of diabetes mellitus cases with 19.5 million people. Dietary patterns, including energy intake, carbohydrates, protein, fat, and nutritional status, play a role in the incidence of diabetes mellitus. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between dietary patterns and nutritional status with the incidence of diabetes mellitus at the Bahteramas Regional General Hospital in Southeast Sulawesi Province. The study design used a cross-sectional method with purposive sampling. The study respondents were inpatients aged ≥ 20 years. Data analysis used the chi-square test. The study was conducted in April-May 2025. The results of the analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between dietary patterns (p=0.008) and the incidence of diabetes mellitus. However, no significant relationship was found between nutritional status (p=0.421) and the incidence of diabetes mellitus. Thus, it is important to pay attention to nutrient consumption patterns and nutritional status in the prevention and management of diabetes mellitus.
