Abstract

Background: Cervical cancer can be prevented through HPV vaccination and screening. However, the screening rate among women in Indonesia is still below 10%. Screening coverage in Palu City in 2024 is still below the national target (90%), reaching only 19.9%. Low compliance with screening is not only due to a lack of knowledge but also to social and cultural norms. This study aims to analyze social and cultural norms in cervical cancer screening compliance among high-risk women in Palu City. Methods: This study uses a naturalistic paradigm approach with a phenomenological research type. The participants in this study were women aged 30-50 years who met the established criteria. Data analysis is carried out through the stages of data reduction, thematic categorization, sociological interpretation, and theoretical synthesis using Durkheim's Collective Conscience theory, Bicchieri's Social Norms Theory, and Health Belief Model Theory. Results: The results of the study suggest that taboo norms are most dominant in cervical cancer screening compliance, with women who undergo reproductive organ examinations being considered shameful and rude. Folkways norms reveal that women only get checked when symptoms appear and self-medicate with traditional remedies. Moral values such as shame or husband's permission weaken the decision to undergo screening. Preventive knowledge and barriers such as stigma, shame, and lack of support weaken screening awareness. Conclusion: In conclusion, cervical cancer screening compliance is a social phenomenon shaped by taboo social norms, morality, customs, and symbolic power roles. Therefore, Socio-Normative Health Awareness Theory is a new intervention concept that reorients social norms into more effective empowerment tools, such as spousal consent, the role of religious leaders, customs, and morality as forces to strengthen awareness and participation in screening.

Abstract

This systematic review synthesized recent evidence on the impact of exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) on infant and maternal health, maternal knowledge, and family socioeconomic conditions. Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, we conducted systematic searches in PubMed, ScienceDirect, JSTOR, and Google Scholar. From 500 identified records, 10 studies published between 2020 and 2025 met the inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis showed that EBF reduced gastrointestinal infection risk in infants by 45% (OR = 0.55; 95% CI: 0.45–0.67), increased cognitive development scores by 0.35 SD compared to formula-fed infants, and reduced maternal breast cancer risk by 25%. Narrative synthesis indicated significant economic savings at the household level through reduced formula purchases and healthcare utilization. These findings underscored the importance of maternal knowledge, family support, and breastfeeding-friendly workplace policies in sustaining EBF. The review provided critical implications for global and national health policies to promote and protect EBF practices.

Abstract

Indonesia faces a critical shortage and maldistribution of medical professionals, particularly in Disadvantaged, Border, and Outermost (DTPK) regions. This study analyzes the effectiveness of the Ministry of Health's Educational Funding Assistance Program (Bandikdok) within the new regulatory framework of Law No. 17 of 2023. A qualitative Document and Policy Analysis was conducted. Data were collected from statutory regulations, Ministry of Health workforce reports (2022–2025), and a comparative review of successful retention models from Japan (Jichi Medical University) and Thailand (CPIRD). The analysis reveals that the program is supported by a robust legal foundation and has successfully lowered entry barriers, attracting over 2,278 participants through a centralized digital platform. However, the study identifies a critical structural weakness: the reliance on temporary Non-Civil Servant (Non-ASN) contracts and administrative sanctions creates a transactional "financial bond." This stands in contrast to the "social bond" models utilized in Japan and Thailand, which achieve higher retention through local recruitment and community integration. While the current policy effectively accelerates workforce production, long-term retention remains fragile due to the lack of career security. To ensure sustainability, the policy paradigm must shift from a punitive financial approach to a supportive ecosystem. Recommendations include decentralizing recruitment to create a "rural pipeline" and offering conditional Civil Service (ASN) tracks for graduates committed to long-term service in underserved areas.
