Abstract

Stunting is a public health problem caused by chronic malnutrition and recurrent infections, especially in toddlers. This study aims to analyze the relationship between giving additional blood supplements (TTD) during pregnancy and the incidence of Stunting in toddlers at the District Health Center, Tasikmalaya West Java. The research used a correlational design with a cross-sectional approach on 133 respondents from pregnant women and toddlers aged 24–35 months. The research results showed that 52.6% of toddlers experienced Stunting, while 72.2% of mothers did not comply with taking TTD during pregnancy. Data analysis using the Chi-Square test did not find a significant relationship between adherence to TTD consumption and the incidence of Stunting (p-value = 0.568). This study emphasizes the importance of a holistic approach in dealing with Stunting, including nutritional education, pregnancy monitoring, and increasing awareness of the importance of consuming TTD.

Abstract

The potential of cardiac markers in predicting preeclampsia, such as Creatinine Kinase (CK) and Tyrosine Kinase 1 (TK1), has emerged as promising due to their involvement in the pathophysiology of this pregnancy complication. Preeclampsia is characterized by hypertension and organ dysfunction, and it can lead to significant maternal and fetal morbidity if not detected early. Early identification of preeclampsia is critical for preventing severe complications, and biomarkers like CK and TK1 can provide valuable insights. This study aimed to investigate the role of CK and TK1 as potential predictors of preeclampsia in the third trimester of pregnancy. Forty (40) consenting pregnant women were recruited from St. Philomina Catholic Hospital, Edo State, Nigeria. Participants were divided into two groups: twenty (20) normotensive pregnant women and twenty (20) preeclamptic pregnant women in their third trimester. Blood samples were collected and processed using a bucket centrifuge at 2500 RPM for 10 minutes, and plasma was stored frozen for further analysis. Tyrosine Kinase 1 was analyzed by fluorescence immunoassay, and Creatinine Kinase was measured using a spectrophotometric method. Data obtained were analyzed using GraphPad Prism 9, with results expressed as mean ± SEM. Statistical significance was set at a P-value of ≤ 0.05. The study found a statistically significant increase in the levels of both CK and TK1 in preeclamptic women compared to normotensive controls. These findings suggest that CK and TK1 could serve as predictive biomarkers for identifying and monitoring preeclampsia, aiding in early diagnosis and timely interventions

Abstract

Mycobacterium Bovis is a serious infection that affects cattle and has ramifications for human health, especially in areas where close contact between humans and animals is widespread and pasteurization of dairy products is not widely used. The purpose of this work is to identify risk factors connected with M. bovis infection, estimate the prevalence of the disease in east Darfur State, and underline the main aspects of the disease. The study included a total sample size of 100 cows milk collected from different localities of East Darfur State in Sudan ( Abu Matarq 21.1%, Yaseen 15.3%,El-Daein 22.1%, Abu Karinka 6.8% and Assalaya 5.1% ) this study estimated that 25% of the collected raw milk specimen was positive for mycobacterium. The incidence of Mycobacterium Bovis in Sudan is the result of a complex interaction of cattle management techniques, environmental conditions, and public health initiatives. While there is increased knowledge of the disease and efforts to control it, obstacles such as limited resources, cultural customs, and environmental stressors continue to impact its tendencies.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the completeness of inpatient daily census data and its impact on bed utilization efficiency at Assyifa Hospital Sukabumi using the 5M framework (Man, Machine, Method, Material, Money). Accurate inpatient census recording is essential for effective hospital management, particularly in optimizing bed occupancy rates and ensuring efficient resource allocation. However, issues related to incomplete data entry often lead to inaccuracies in bed utilization monitoring. By applying a qualitative descriptive approach, this research explores various factors influencing census completeness and their implications for bed usage. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, involving 37 nurses responsible for census recording. The findings reveal that human factors such as workload and understanding of standard operating procedures, technological limitations, procedural inconsistencies, inadequate supporting materials, and insufficient financial support are significant contributors to census incompleteness. Recommendations include enhancing staff training, improving technological systems, clarifying standard procedures, ensuring adequate materials, and allocating sufficient funding. This study provides valuable insights for hospitals aiming to improve their data recording processes and optimize resource utilization effectively.

process standardization, and system optimization. The study concludes that the HOT-FIT model is This study evaluates the performance of the outpatient registration information system at RSUD Komodo using the Human-Organization-Technology Fit (HOT-FIT) framework. Hospital Information Systems, particularly in the outpatient registration process, are crucial for supporting service efficiency and data accuracy. However, RSUD Komodo has experienced several challenges in the implementation of its SIMRS module, including system slowdowns, sudden monitor failures, and unstable internet connectivity during service hours. These issues hinder operational effectiveness and risk compromising service quality. The objective of this research is to assess system performance comprehensively across human, organizational, and technological dimensions. A qualitative descriptive design was employed, involving in-depth interviews with five key informants: registration staff, IT personnel, coder, head of the medical records unit, and head of the casemix team. The findings show that in the human dimension, users lacked sufficient training and adaptation strategies. In the organizational aspect, weak coordination and the absence of standardized procedures were identified. In the technology dimension, hardware malfunctions and slow system performance significantly disrupted services. These interconnected issues reveal the need for capacity buildingan effective tool for evaluating hospital information systems, offering a structured approach to identifying and resolving performance gaps in outpatient service modules.
