Abstract

Adolescent bullying has become a widespread public health issue and a global concern. This behavior significantly impacts adolescents' psychological, social, and educational well-being. In Indonesia, numerous bullying cases occur, yet many go unreported, including in Sorong City, West Papua Province. This research aims to identify bullying cases experienced by adolescents in junior high schools in the Sorong City area This is a descriptive research. The study population was junior high school adolescents in Sorong City, with a sample of 165 selected through cluster random sampling based on inclusion criteria. Data were collected using the Multidimensional Peer-Victimization Scale-24 (MPVS-24) Bullying Incident Questionnaire and analyzed with descriptive tests in SPSS version 25. The research findings were gathered from 165 junior high school students in Sorong City. The students were categorized as follows: normal (44.8%), bullying victims (36.4%), bullying perpetrators (10.3%), and bystanders (8.5%). These results indicate the prevalence of bullying behavior in junior high schools in Sorong City. It is important to implement follow-up strategies to prevent adverse effects on the victims, perpetrators, and bystanders. Collaboration among parents, schools, health professionals, and the government is essential to address and prevent bullying among adolescents in the school environment.

Abstract

The sources of DEHP exposure are very wide because it is used as a plasticizer and additive in cosmetics and personal care products. Epidemiological studies have shown that DEHP and its metabolites can increase the risk of metabolic syndrome. However, this observation is still debated. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review aimed to investigate the relationship between DEHP exposure and metabolic syndrome in adults. This study used three databases, namely Pubmed, Scopus, and ScienceDirect, with English-language publications from 2019 to 2024. Seven cross-sectional and cohort studies from South Korea, the United States, Mexico, and Taiwan met the inclusion criteria selected through the PRISMA stages They were assessed for quality using the JBI Critical Appraisal Tool. The findings showed that only studies conducted in the United States and South Korea showed a significant association between DEHP and its metabolites (MEHP, MECPP, MCMHP, MEHHP, and MEOHP) with metabolic syndrome. However, these findings were limited to men, white men, premenopausal women, and postmenopausal women. In conclusion, DEHP and its metabolites showed inconsistent results on metabolic syndrome in adults. Recommendations are that further studies are needed with more robust designs in the future in various countries to clearly describe the relationship between DEHP and metabolic syndrome and strong regulation of phthalate use to minimize exposure.

Abstract

Depression is a common psychological complication among patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB), affecting treatment adherence and recovery outcomes. Identifying the determinants of depression in this population is essential for developing comprehensive care strategies. This cross-sectional study was conducted among 28 MDR-TB patients at RSUD Waled. Data on demographic, clinical, and psychosocial variables were collected through structured questionnaires. Depression was assessed using a standardized screening tool. Bivariate analysis was performed using chi-square tests, followed by multivariate logistic regression to identify independent predictors of depression. The bivariate analysis showed no significant association between age (p=0.063), gender (p=0.07), income (p=0.065), or educational attainment (p=0.63) with depression, indicating that these demographic and socioeconomic factors did not influence depressive outcomes. In contrast, comorbidities (p<0.001), duration of illness (p=0.011), and community stigma (p<0.001) were significantly associated with depression. Respondents with comorbidities, longer illness duration, and negative community stigma were markedly more likely to experience depression, suggesting that clinical and psychosocial factors are stronger determinants than demographic variables. Comorbidities, longer illness duration, and community stigma were significantly related to depressive outcomes. Future research with larger and more diverse populations is needed to validate these findings and explore contextual factors influencing depression in MDR-TB patients.

Abstract

The procedure for storing medical record documents (MRDs) involves sorting the records by their medical record numbers before returning them to the medical records department and placing them in storage. This process facilitates the retrieval of required records and streamlines storage operations, thereby preventing misfiling when the documents are needed for patient care. Delays in locating MRDs on the filing racks can result from storage or placement errors, commonly referred to as misfiling. Efficient storage of medical record documents (MRDs) requires proper sorting by medical record numbers before returning them to the filing system. This process ensures quick retrieval and minimizes errors. However, delays in locating MRDs often occur due to misfiling—typically caused by improper storage or placement. This study aims to identify factors contributing to misfiling, focusing on the storage system, alignment, numbering, and human resources. This study is quantitative research with a descriptive design. The analysis used is univariant analysis. The population comprises inpatient medical records returned from the care units after patient discharge during the period of January to December 2023. The sampling method employed is non-probability sampling, specifically using accidental sampling. Among 50 inpatient MRDs stored in the filing room at Makassar City Regional General Hospital, 15 (30%) were misfiled. The factors contributing to the misfiling of medical record documents in the filing room include incompetent medical record personnel, misalignment in the filing system, the absence of tracers, and the lack of an expedition logbook. Misfiling was associated with several factors, including untrained personnel, inconsistencies in the filing alignment, absence of tracers, and the lack of a delivery logbook (previously referred to as an “expedition logbook”) used to track the movement of documents. Addressing these issues may improve filing accuracy and support patient care efficiency.

Abstract

The incidence of HIV/AIDS in Indonesia, including in West Java and Tasikmalaya City, continues to rise. In Tasikmalaya City alone, 345 cases have been recorded. Antiretroviral (ARV) therapy has revolutionized HIV treatment, but optimal adherence—ideally 100%—is essential to prevent drug resistance. However, adherence among people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) in Tasikmalaya remains suboptimal, increasing the risk of treatment failure and resistance. This study employed a cross-sectional correlational design involving 62 PLWHA who actively participated in monthly meetings organized by the AIDS Countermeasures Commission (KPA) in Tasikmalaya. Participants were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using a validated questionnaire for treatment adherence and a researcher-developed instrument to assess additional variables. Factors found to influence ARV treatment adherence included age, gender, educational background, perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, and self-confidence. Among these, perceived barriers were identified as the most dominant factor affecting adherence (OR = 16.9). Although limited by a small sample size, this study highlights several psychosocial and demographic factors that influence ARV adherence among PLWHA. Addressing perceived barriers should be a priority in interventions aimed at improving adherence and preventing drug resistance.

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a serious public health issue in Indonesia. One of the innovations developed to reduce the number of DHF cases is the implementation of Wolbachia-infected Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. This study aims to describe and evaluate the health communication strategies used in the implementation of Wolbachia mosquitoes in Bontang City, East Kalimantan The study employs a qualitative case study design, using four Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) with 32 participants, including community health volunteers (cadres, i.e. community health volunteers), household foster parents, sub-district officials, and health center staff. Thematic analysis was conducted with source triangulation to ensure data validity based on community perceptions, the socialization process, implementation challenges, and stakeholder support.. The results indicate mixed outcomes: positive acceptance was initially supported by trust in health workers, clear explanations of Wolbachia’s biological role, and active involvement of community volunteers; however, several obstacles reduced support, including ongoing dengue cases, perceived increase in mosquito populations, misinformation and hoaxes on social media, weak cross-sector coordination, and cadre turnover without transition. Discontinuous communication strategies weakened the effectiveness of health message delivery to the community. Strengthening risk communication, broader public campaigns, and routine cross-sector evaluations are needed to ensure the program’s sustainability.
