Abstract

Leprosy is still a health problem in the Guluk-Guluk District. Factors that contribute to the increase in leprosy cases are home sanitation and personal hygiene. House sanitation that does not meet the requirements creates a conducive environment for leprosy bacteria, and inadequate personal hygiene increases the risk of leprosy transmission. This research aims to analyze the relationship between home sanitation and personal hygiene and the incidence of leprosy. This research uses a case-control design. The independent variables are home sanitation and personal hygiene, while the dependent variable is the incidence of leprosy. Data collection is done through interviews, observation, and measurement. The samples used were 30 case samples and 30 control samples. The research location is in the Guluk-Guluk Health Center Working Area. The research time is January - June 2024. Sampling used a simple random sampling technique via lottery. Data were analyzed using chi-square and odds ratio tests. The results show a relationship between house sanitation, ceilings, floors, ventilation, personal hygiene, cleanliness of hands and feet, and the incidence of leprosy. There is no relationship between temperature, humidity, and bed cleanliness with the incidence of leprosy.

Abstract

Diarrheal diseases often occur in school children with a frequency of liquid bowel movements three or more times a day. Environmental and behavioural factors affect diarrhea in children. This study aims to analyze the relationship between elementary school children's behaviour and diarrhea in Berbek Village in 2024. Observational analytical research with a cross-sectional approach was conducted in three elementary schools in Berbek Village. The study population was 529 children from grade 4 to grade 6, with samples taken by stratified random sampling. Data were collected through observation and interviews using questionnaires and analyzed with the Chi-square test. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between knowledge (p=0.000), attitude (p=0.000), attitude (p=0.000) and behaviour (p=0.003) on the incidence of diarrhea. Still, there was no relationship between infrastructure facilities (p=0.891) and school policies (p=0.891). It is recommended that schools expand students' knowledge and attitudes about clean and healthy living behaviours (PHBS) with visual media that are attractive and easy to understand, and teachers provide examples of the implementation of PHBS in schools and complete school infrastructure facilities to be more adequate.

Abstract

Workplace noise is one of the physical factors that is often overlooked, although long-term exposure can have serious impacts on cardiovascular health. In workers exposed to noise, blood pressure and heart rate often increase as the body's response to physical stress. This physiological mechanism triggered by prolonged noise can result in an increased risk of cardiovascular disorders, including hypertension and heart rhythm disorders. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of noise on increasing blood pressure and heart rate in workers in the workshop area, especially the dynotest room. This type of research is observational with a cross-sectional research design. Conducted in December - May 2024 with the object of research on workers exposed to noise in the workshop area, especially the dynotest room. Data were analyzed using the Logistic Regression test. The total sample was 40 workers in the workshop area and dynotest room. Data were collected from observations, room noise measurements, blood pressure, and heart rate. Based on the results of the study, the average results for the dynotest area were 83.5 dBA, while for the dynotest room, the average results were 117.8 dBA. The results of statistical tests of blood pressure and pulse rate in workers obtained a sig value = 0.001. These results indicate an increase in blood pressure and pulse rate due to noise. It is recommended for the Company to monitor workers to find out the disorders caused by noise.

Abstract

Dengue fever (DHF) is a significant health problem in tropical regions, including the working area of Puskesmas Moropelang, Lamongan. Data shows that DHF cases continue to be found in the period 2020-2023. This study aims to analyse the relationship between residential environmental sanitation and the incidence of DHF in the region in 2024. This study used a quantitative approach with an analytical observational design based on the case-control method. The study population was 148, with a total sample size of 74 cases and 74 controls. Independent variables included environmental conditions, water reservoirs, and larval density, while the dependent variable was dengue incidence. Data were analysed using the Chi-Square test. The results showed a significant association between environmental conditions (p=0.013), water storage conditions (p=0.003), and the number of free larvae (p=0.004) with the incidence of DHF. Respondents with poor home environmental conditions had a 2.3 times higher risk of DHF, while the risk increased to 2.7 times in poor water reservoirs, and 2.6 times in environments with high larval density. This study concluded that residential environmental sanitation plays an important role in the prevention of DHF. Weekly mosquito nest eradication efforts, community education, and regular monitoring of larvae are recommended to reduce the incidence of DHF and improve environmental health.

Abstract

Balance disorders pose a significant risk for falls among the elderly and can greatly diminish their quality of life. This study seeks to inspect the impact of incorporating balance exercises with tandem walking on enhancing balance in the elderly demographic. A quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test control groups was utilized. A total of thirty-two elderly participants from two nursing homes in East Java were chosen through purposive sampling. The independent variable comprised the combination of balance exercises and tandem walking, while the dependent variable was the balance level, evaluated using the Time Up and Go Test (TUGT). Statistical analyses were operated utilizing the Paired t-Test, Wilcoxon Sign Rank Test, and Mann Whitney U Test with a significance level established at p < 0.05. In the intervention group, the average TUGT score before the intervention was 21.35 seconds (indicating unstable mobility), which improved to 16.01 seconds (indicating good mobility) after the intervention (p=0.000). Conversely, the control group, which did not undergo the combined intervention, showed average scores of 26.67 seconds before and 25.38 seconds after the intervention, both categorized as unstable mobility (p=0.326). The intervention group revealed a greater enhancement in balance with a average improvement of 5.33 seconds, compared to 1.28 seconds in the control group (p=0.002). These outcomes demonstrate that the combination of balance exercises and tandem walking is significantly effective in enhancing balance in the elderly. This intervention has the potential to minimize the danger of falls and enhance the overall quality of life among older adults.

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a significant public health issue in Indonesia, particularly in endemic areas such as South Purwokerto. Despite a reported 61% decline in cases from 2022 to 2023, transmission persists, indicating the need for a deeper understanding of environmental determinants. This study aims to conduct a spatial analysis of environmental factors associated with dengue case distribution in the working area of the South Purwokerto Health Center during 2022–2023. This research employed an observational design with a qualitative exploratory approach. Data were collected from both primary and secondary sources, including direct measurements of indoor temperature and humidity, health center reports on larval-free index (LFI), larval density, rainfall, and case distribution. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) using ArcGIS software were utilized to analyze spatial patterns of dengue transmission. The findings showed that the average indoor temperature in patients’ homes was 31°C and relative humidity was 70%, conditions that support mosquito breeding. In 2022, the pattern of dengue cases inversely correlated with rainfall, while in 2023 the pattern was inconsistent. The dominant transmission pattern was “separated” (>100 m radius) with 55% of cases in 2022 and 60% in 2023 falling into this category. Only one sub-district, Teluk, failed to meet the Larval-Free Index threshold in 2022, while all areas improved in 2023. In conclusion, although environmental indicators improved in 2023, the persistence of cases indicates hidden transmission risks. Targeted vector control interventions and increased community participation are essential for sustainable dengue prevention.

Abstract

Stunting remains a major public health issue in Indonesia, influenced by multifactorial determinants including environmental sanitation. Poor household sanitation increases the risk of repeated infections and nutrient malabsorption, contributing significantly to impaired growth among children under five.  This study aims to analyze the association between household environmental sanitation factors and the incidence of stunting in children under five in the Tetewatu Health Centre area, North Konawe District. A case-control study was conducted from January to March 2024, involving 54 respondents (27 stunted cases and 27 matched controls). Data were collected through structured interviews, direct observations, and anthropometric measurements. Variables assessed included ownership of clean water sources, healthy latrines, handwashing with soap (HWWS) practices, and household food management. Data were analyzed using Chi-Square and Fisher’s Exact tests, with significance set at p<0.05. The results showed significant associations between all environmental sanitation variables and stunting. Households with poor access to clean water (OR=10.95; p=0.024), lack of healthy latrines (OR=10.95; p=0.024), poor HWWS behavior (OR=7.35; p=0.019), and inadequate food management (OR=29.69; p<0.001) had a significantly higher risk of stunting. Food management emerged as the strongest predictor. Conclusion: Environmental sanitation factors, particularly food hygiene, access to clean water, sanitation facilities, and handwashing practices, play a critical role in preventing stunting. Interventions targeting household sanitation and hygiene behaviors are essential to achieve sustainable reductions in child stunting rates. Strengthening the WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) component in stunting prevention programs is urgently recommended.

Abstract

Oral health issues are prevalent among the elderly due to physiological aging, which often leads to decreased oral muscle function and impairs essential activities such as mastication, swallowing, and salivary secretion. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of oral stimulation exercises in improving these oral functions in elderly individuals. A pre-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design was conducted involving 28 elderly participants in Pedalangan Village, Semarang, Indonesia. Participants received regular oral stimulation exercises, and assessments were made before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk test for normality, with paired sample t-tests and Wilcoxon tests applied accordingly. The results demonstrated significant improvements in salivary flow rate (p = 0.018), swallowing function (p = 0.000), and mastication ability (p = 0.004). These findings suggest that oral stimulation exercises are an effective non-pharmacological strategy to enhance oral functions among the elderly, potentially improving their overall health and quality of life.
