Abstract

Teluk Baguala District, Ambon City is frequently affected by flood and landslide disasters. This study uses the Maximum Entropy method to model flood and landslide hazard areas based on environmental variables and the spatial distribution of disaster occurrences. The flood mapping results show that areas with low vulnerability cover the largest area, totaling 5,296.07 hectares, while medium-risk areas cover only 188.84 hectares, and high-risk areas cover 493.97 hectares. The area with low landslide vulnerability reaches 2,595.19 hectares, whereas medium vulnerability areas are smaller at 2,327.26 hectares, and very vulnerable or high-risk areas cover only 694.73 hectares. The flood validation test shows an AUC value of 0.974, while the landslide AUC value is 0.851. These mapping results are expected to assist the government in flood and landslide disaster mitigation efforts in the future.

Abstract

Health promotion is one of the key efforts to improve the community’s health status by enhancing knowledge, attitudes, and healthy behaviors. The success of health promotion programs is strongly influenced by the level of education within the community. Individuals with higher education levels tend to understand and apply health messages more easily, thereby increasing their participation in health promotion activities. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the level of education and community participation in health promotion activities in Pangkajene and Kepulauan Regency in 2025. This research employed a quantitative method with a cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 467 respondents selected through total sampling. Data were collected using a questionnaire distributed via the KoboCollect application, covering variables of education level and participation in health promotion activities. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate analyses with the Chi-Square test at a significance level of p ≤ 0.05. The results showed a significant relationship between education level and community participation in health promotion activities. People with higher education levels tended to be more active in health promotion programs. It is recommended that health centers (Puskesmas) adjust their health promotion methods according to the community’s educational background to improve the effectiveness of health message delivery.

Abstract

Hypertension is a leading global health problem and a major cause of cardiovascular and renal complications. In low- and middle-income countries, including Timor-Leste, its prevalence continues to rise despite ongoing prevention programs. This study examines the factors influencing hypertension in Lautem Madya City, Timor-Leste, focusing on behavioral, cultural, and socio-demographic determinants. This study uses a qualitative approach with a cross-sectional was applied using data from the Lautem Health Office. Associations between lifestyle behaviors, cultural practices, and structural barriers with hypertension prevalence were analyzed. Using a cross-sectional analytic design and Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS), 340 adult respondents (170 with hypertension and 170 without) were surveyed between January and April 2025. Data were analyzed revealed that age, gender, family history, education, diet (high salt and meat intake), smoking, alcohol consumption, limited healthcare access, and poor family support were significantly associated with hypertension (p < 0.05). Cultural practices emerged as a central factor, directly increasing hypertension risk and mediating the effects of lifestyle behaviors such as diet, smoking, and alcohol use. These findings indicate that hypertension prevention in Lautem Municipality requires culturally tailored and family-centered interventions supported by improved primary healthcare systems. This study contributes empirical evidence on the interaction of lifestyle, social, and cultural determinants of hypertension in a low- and middle-income country context.

Abstract

Maternal and child health issues remain a significant concern in Indonesia, marked by high maternal and infant mortality rates. There is a pressing need to improve the quality of maternal and child health services at the primary healthcare facility level to achieve both national and global health objectives. This study aims to analyze the maternal and child health services provided in the working area of the Kampili Community Health Centre (Puskesmas) in Gowa District. It employs a descriptive qualitative approach and a case study design. The informants included individuals responsible for maternal and child health, midwives, and community members receiving services, all selected purposively. Data were collected through field observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation analysis, with validity tested using triangulation techniques. The study's results indicate that maternal and child health services are operating in accordance with national standard procedures. Skilled midwives, adequate facilities, and funding from the Indonesian Health Insurance (Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Sosial-Kesehatan, BPJS Kesehatan) support these services. However, challenges persist, including a limited number of doctors, insufficient auxiliary health center facilities, long waiting times, and an unequal distribution of training opportunities between civil servants and non-civil servants. These findings support Donabedian's theory, which emphasizes the significance of structure and process in the quality of health services. Additionally, they align with previous studies that point to human resource competence and facility adequacy as critical factors in determining service quality. This study aims to provide a foundation for policy-making to enhance maternal and child health services at the primary health facility level.

Abstract

In 2024, circulating vaccine-derived poliovirus type 2 (cVDPV2) was detected in Indonesia. In response, the Government of Indonesia declared a polio outbreak and launched a Polio Supplementary Immunization Activity (SIA) providing two doses of the Novel Oral Polio Vaccine type 2 (nOPV2) to children aged 0–7 years. This study aimed to identify factors associated with completion of the required nOPV2 doses during the Polio SIA in Mimika District, Central Papua Province. An analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among children aged 0–7 years. A total of 356 respondents representing 776 eligible children were selected through systematic random sampling across seven primary health centers (Puskesmas) and 17 urban and rural villages. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed to determine factors associated with complete nOPV2 immunization. Several factors showed significant associations with nOPV2 dose completion, including fear of adverse events following immunization (AEFI), accessibility of immunization posts and schedules, parental availability, and exposure to negative rumours about immunization. In contrast, parental knowledge about the Polio SIA was not significantly associated with nOPV2 completion among children aged 0–7 years. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening information dissemination, improving service accessibility, and enhancing health promotion strategies to increase community acceptance and ensure successful implementation of immunization programs.

Abstract

Utilization of hospital services varies according to patient characteristics. As Faisal Islamic Hospital Makassar serves both urban and non-urban populations, understanding the determinants of service utilization is essential for improving equitable access. This study examined the influence of geographic and socioeconomic factors on outpatient service utilization. A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 99 outpatients. Service utilization was categorized as new versus return visits, while independent variables included education, occupation, income, and residential location. Chi-square tests with a 95% confidence level were used for analysis. Income (p = 0.026) and residential location (p = 0.019) were significantly associated with service utilization, whereas education (p = 0.363) and occupation (p = 0.165) were not. Patients with higher income and those living within the city were more likely to make return visits. These findings highlight the need for service strategies that maintain quality for frequent users while enhancing access for lower-income and out-of-city patients.

Abstract

Nutritional status is an important health indicator influenced by multiple factors. Students aged 19–24 years remain in a growth phase and require adequate nutrition and healthy lifestyle habits to support academic performance and long-term wellbeing. This study aimed to examine the effects of dietary patterns and physical activity on the nutritional status of Biology Department students at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, State University of Makassar. An analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among 115 students. Dietary patterns were assessed using an FFQ questionnaire, physical activity using the GPAQ, and nutritional status using BMI measurements. Data were analyzed using Chi-square tests and multiple linear regression. Results showed that 53.9% of students had poor dietary patterns, while 63.5% had high levels of physical activity. Both dietary patterns and physical activity were significantly associated with nutritional status (p < 0.001). Regression analysis indicated that dietary patterns had a significant positive effect on nutritional status, whereas physical activity had a significant negative effect. The model explained 81.6% of the variation in nutritional status (R² = 0.816). In conclusion, dietary patterns and physical activity significantly influence students nutritional status. Interventions should emphasize improving dietary habits and promoting physical activity to maintain optimal nutritional health.

Abstract

Childhood malnutrition remains a major public health challenge in developing countries. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of acute malnutrition and its associated factors among children aged over six months to five years who visited Abu Ali Sina Balkhi Regional Hospital in 2023. This descriptive-analytical study collected and analyzed data on weight, height, mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC), age, sex, and age group of the children. Inferential analysis using the Chi-square test indicated no statistically significant association between a child’s sex and the prevalence of malnutrition (p = 0.582). However, logistic regression analysis revealed that reductions in weight and height significantly increased the risk of malnutrition (p < 0.001), while chronological age and age grouping had no significant effect. Descriptive statistics further showed that although mean weight, height, and MUAC increased with age, they remained below global growth standards. The findings of this study highlight the importance of early identification of anthropometric indicators for timely diagnosis and intervention in malnutrition cases. Strengthening primary healthcare systems, improving family education, and implementing community-based nutritional therapy programs are key recommended strategies to reduce the prevalence of childhood malnutrition.

Abstract

Nickel mining in Weda, Halmahera Island, is one of the largest nickel mines in Indonesia, and its activities impact changes in vegetation indices and cover in the area. The research uses Landsat 8 satellite imagery from 2019, 2022, and 2025 with the NDVI algorithm to analyse changes in vegetation index values and vegetation cover. The research results show that the NDVI values for 2019 are the lowest at -0.233774 and the highest at 0.999903; for 2022, the lowest is -0.369486 and the highest is 0.799867; and for 2025, the lowest is -0.369486 and the highest is 0.530372. The NDVI values were then classified into 4 vegetation cover classes: active mining areas, sparse, moderate, and dense vegetation. The active mining area in 2019 was 1.27 km², in 2022 it was 11.91 km², and in 2025 it was 18.20 km². Sparse vegetation in 2019 covered 5.73 km², in 2022 it covered 6.03 km², and in 2025 it covered 8.07 km². Moderate vegetation in 2019 covered 5.72 km², in 2022 it covered 2.68 km², and in 2025 it covered 2.21 km². Dense vegetation in 2019 covered 522.64 km², in 2022 it covered 515.35 km², and in 2025 it covered 507.20 km². The presentation of the mining area continues to increase every year. The results of this research are expected to be used for continuous monitoring to ensure compliance with environmental standards and support rehabilitation programmes in Weda and other tropical mining areas.

Abstract

Adherence to hemodialysis therapy is essential for improving clinical outcomes and reducing complications among patients with chronic kidney failure; however, non-adherence remains a persistent challenge in many healthcare facilities. This study aimed to analyze the factors influencing adherence to hemodialysis among chronic kidney failure patients at Hermina Manado Hospital. A quantitative analytical cross-sectional design was employed, involving patients undergoing routine hemodialysis. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire covering sociodemographic characteristics, knowledge level, family support, service accessibility, and patient perceptions of therapy. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify key determinants of adherence. The findings showed that sociodemographic factors (age, gender, and education) showed no significant association with hemodialysis adherence. In contrast, internal and social factors demonstrated strong relationships with compliance. Higher patient knowledge was significantly associated with better adherence, as were strong family support and higher motivation levels. Multivariate analysis identified knowledge as the dominant predictor of compliance, with patients possessing good knowledge being 3.49 times more likely to adhere to treatment than those with lower knowledge. This study concludes that adherence can be improved through comprehensive strategies aimed at increasing patient knowledge, optimizing family support, and enhancing service accessibility, thereby contributing to better hemodialysis outcomes and overall patient well-being.
