Abstract

Breast cancer is the leading cause of death for women in Indonesia with an increasing incidence rate. One method of early detection is Breast Self-Examination (SADARI), but this practice is still minimal among adolescent girls due to lack of education. This study aims to analyze the relationship between knowledge, attitudes, and actions of SADARI with the effectiveness of early detection of breast cancer in students of SMK Kesehatan Bali Dewata. With a cross-sectional design, the study involved 71 female students through proportional random sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires assessing knowledge, attitudes, and actions of SADARI. The results showed that 36.6% of respondents had sufficient knowledge and 45.1% had a positive attitude, but only 32.4% performed SADARI correctly and regularly. SADARI knowledge and action were significantly associated with early detection of breast cancer (p=0.000 and p=0.045), while attitude showed no significant correlation (p=0.090). In conclusion, awareness of SADARI is quite high, but the practice is still less than optimal. The behavioral recommendation for self-breast examination as an early detection of breast cancer is that the use of interactive educational media on the internet can help increase awareness and skills for self-examination.Keywords: Health behavior; Breast self-examination; Early detection

Abstract

We would like to express our appreciation for the constructive input given to the article on the effectiveness of e-pocket books in improving balanced nutrition knowledge in adolescents to reduce obesity. This response aims to clarify the context of the research, answer the methodological issues raised, and affirm the empirical contribution of the study. The research is focused on improving nutrition knowledge, not on changes in nutritional status, and the term "obesity reduction" in the title describes the long-term direction of nutrition education interventions. A single 120-minute intervention was recognized to have limitations in maintaining knowledge retention, but significant results showed that e-pocket book media was effective in improving comprehension in a short period of time. The validity and reliability of the instrument have met the minimum standards for health education research in schools. In this study, the use of WhatsApp groups is not a disruptive variable, but part of a digital learning strategy to increase participant engagement. Although the research is still limited to urban schools with a small sample size, these findings are early evidence of the feasibility of e-pocket books as a digital educational medium that is lightweight, easily accessible, and in accordance with the digital habits of teenagers in general today.

Abstract

The effectiveness of disaster preparedness cannot be measured solely from the existence of an early warning system (early warning systems/EWS). Warnings without prompt and coordinated action risk losing their significance in saving lives. In practice, many regions face challenges when warning signals are received, but response and resource mobilization are slow. This demonstrates that preparedness does not stop at detection systems, but rather relies on institutional, social, and technical capacity to act promptly. This opinion piece examines the limitations of EWS implementation in Indonesia from three dimensions: technical (limited reach and data interoperability), social (low risk literacy and community engagement), and institutional (unintegrated command, logistics, and anticipatory financing). This condition is exacerbated by weak coordination at the local level, including in the activation of volunteers and social networks, so that vulnerable groups are often not reached by warnings or early assistance. Based on lessons learned from case studies in Indonesia and international literature on anticipatory action, this paper emphasizes the need to review preparedness indicators by including aspects of resource mobilization as a main component. Policy recommendations include strengthening the capacity of Disaster Resilient Villages in the dissemination of warnings (last-mile warning), the application of the mechanism trigger and anticipatory financing, as well as the integration of preparedness with health services, education, logistics, search and rescue, and refugee readiness. This new approach positions preparedness not simply as the ability to receive warnings, but as an integrated system capable of translating warnings into concrete, life-saving actions.

Abstract

Background: Biosafety is crucial for protecting laboratory staff from infectious agents and hazardous biological materials. Inadequate knowledge of unsafe practices may increase the risk of laboratory-acquired infections and accidents. This study assessed the knowledge, attitude, and Practice (KAP) of biosafety and related factors among laboratory staff. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 150 laboratory staff recruited through stratified and random sampling. Data were collected using a validated, self-administered questionnaire that assessed knowledge, attitude, and practice related to biosafety. Descriptive analysis, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression were performed to examine differences and associations. Results: The findings revealed that laboratory staff demonstrated moderate knowledge (74.8%), good attitudes (95.5%), and good practices (93.7%) towards biosafety. Significant differences in knowledge [F (2,147) = 23.7, p < 0.001] and Practice [F(2,147) = 21.36, p < 0.001] were observed across schools. A moderate positive correlation was found between Practice and knowledge (r = 0.518, p < 0.01) and between Practice and attitude (r = 0.342, p < 0.01). Higher education was associated with better knowledge and attitudes, while longer years of employment were negatively associated with knowledge. No demographic factors significantly predicted practice. Conclusions: Laboratory staff demonstrated positive attitudes and good practices, but showed only moderate knowledge of biosafety. Regular training, continuous education, and standardised biosafety programs are crucial for enhancing knowledge and maintaining safe laboratory practices. This study provides essential evidence to strengthen biosafety training and policies in Malaysian universities, supporting safer laboratory environments and improved institutional preparedness.

Abstract

Excessive gadget use among adolescents can affect sleep habits and rest quality. This study aims to determine the relationship between gadget use and sleep patterns among adolescents at PGRI 2 Denpasar High School. The research design used was quantitative with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 145 respondents were selected using sampling techniques. The research instruments consisted of a questionnaire on gadget use (duration and frequency) and a questionnaire on sleep patterns (sleeping hours, sleep quality, and sleep disturbances). The data were analyzed using the Spearman Rank test to see the relationship between the two variables. The results showed that most respondents used gadgets for more than 2.5 hours per day, especially at night before bedtime. The respondents' sleep patterns were good, with 6-8 hours of sleep per night, and there were complaints of fatigue due to lack of sleep. The Spearman Rank test results showed a significant relationship between the duration of use and the pattern, with a p-value of 0.001 (α = 0.005) with a correlation coefficient value of -0.270, indicating a weak but significant negative relationship. The results of the frequency of gadget use showed a correlation coefficient value of 0.127 with a p-value of 0.129, indicating a weak positive relationship between the frequency of gadget use and sleep patterns.Keywords: Gadgets, Sleep Patterns, Adolescents, High School, Denpasar
