Abstract

Purabaya Terminal is characterized by high vehicle density, making it a potential source of air pollution, particularly from fossil fuel-powered vehicles, such as diesel, which emit sulfur dioxide (SO2) gas. Exposure to SO2 poses health risks to traders nearby, leading to symptoms such as shortness of breath, watery eyes, and dizziness. This study aimed to analyze the health risk levels associated with SO₂ exposure to traders at Purabaya Terminal. The research utilized an Environmental Health Risk Analysis (EHRA) approach with a quantitative descriptive design and a cross-sectional method. A sample of 32 traders was selected using purposive sampling techniques. Air sampling was conducted at four locations within the terminal, and data analysis assessed exposure levels and potential health risks to traders. The average SO2 concentration was found to be 0.018 mg/m3, which is below the threshold limit set in the Minister of Manpower Regulation No. 5 of 2018. The average air temperature was 29.9 oC, with humidity at 78.7% and wind speed at 1.14 m/s from the west. Intake exposure values ranged from 0.0007 to 0.0033 mg/kg/day, while the reference dose (RfC) was 0.026 mg/kg/day. Risk characterization calculations (RQ) indicated that all respondents had RQ values ≤ 1. The study concludes that SO2 exposure levels for traders remain within acceptable health risk range and do not pose a non-carcinogenic health risk. However, it is recommended that traders use personal protective equipment such as masks and that terminal management conducts regular air quality monitoring.

Abstract

The 4th pillar of the Community-Based Total Sanitation (STBM) program emphasizes household waste management, which is crucial due to the significant contribution of household waste to environmental pollution. This study aimed to analyze the influence of knowledge, education, and triggering on the implementation of the 4th pillar of STBM in Mojosulur Village, Mojosari District, Mojokerto Regency in 2025. An analytic observational design with a cross-sectional approach was applied, involving 92 housewives selected through systematic random sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires to measure knowledge, education, and triggering experience, and observation sheets to evaluate household waste management practices. The results showed that the overall implementation of the 4th pillar of STBM was still low, with only 15.2% of households practicing proper waste management. The Chi-Square test indicated that knowledge had no significant association with STBM 4th pillar implementation (p = 0.109), while education (p = 0.004) and triggering (p = 0.000) were significantly associated. These findings highlight that higher education and structured triggering activities play a key role in strengthening household waste management. Local governments and environmental health officers are recommended to intensify triggering interventions and strengthen community education programs, focusing on the three main components of STBM enabling environment, increasing demand, and increasing supply to promote sustainable waste management behavior at the household level.

Abstract

Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health challenge in Indonesia. Behavioral factors, including perception and lifestyle, play an important role in influencing TB incidence. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the association between behavioral factors based on the Health Belief Model (HBM) and the incidence of pulmonary TB in the Benowo Health Center area, Surabaya. A case-control design was employed with 39 cases and 39 controls aged 15–60 years, selected using the Slovin formula and purposive sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using bivariate (Chi-square) and multivariate (logistic regression) tests. Significant factors associated with pulmonary TB incidence were poor perceived vulnerability (OR = 1.86), high perceived severity (OR = 2.84), and low self-efficacy (OR = 2.44). Other variables such as perceived benefits, barriers, and cues to action showed weaker associations. Behavioral factors, particularly vulnerability, severity, and self-efficacy, significantly influence pulmonary TB incidence in the Benowo Health Center area. Strengthening health education and community-based counseling is recommended to improve TB prevention and control.

Abstract

Noise in classrooms can disrupt communication between teachers and students, potentially affecting learning outcomes. Previous research indicates that noise exceeding environmental health standards may contribute to communication difficulties during lessons. This study aimed to analyze the effect of classroom noise and communication disruptions on students’ learning achievement. An observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among 4th and 6th grade students at one of the elementary schools in South Surabaya. Noise levels were measured in the classrooms, and students were assessed for communication disruptions and learning achievement. Logistic regression was used for data analysis. All classrooms exceeded the environmental health noise threshold of 55 dB(A), with an average level of 67.45 dB(A). Noise was significantly associated with communication disruptions (OR = 5.118; p = 0.012). Classroom noise increased the risk of communication disruptions but did not directly affect students’ learning achievement. It is recommended to install soundproof partitions and double-glazed windows to reduce noise. Future studies should investigate the interaction between teaching methods and student achievement.

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever cases are one of the public health problems that are endemic in the Sememi Health Center working area. This study analyzes the relationship between environmental factors that influence dengue fever cases, including the larval index, rainfall, temperature, and humidity in the working area of the Sememi Community Health Center, which recorded 183 cases from 2020 to 2024.This study utilized a cross-sectional analytical design, with analysis conducted on 60 monthly secondary data collected over five years. The correlation test results show that only the number of free larvae has a significant relationship with cases of dengue fever (Sig.= 0.000), while other climate factors do not. These findings confirm the crucial role of the number of free larvae as a determining indicator of dengue fever cases. The main limitation of this study is the aggregate and secondary nature of the data, which does not allow for confirmation of cause and effect, but only correlation. Based on these findings, it is recommended that the Mosquito Nest Eradication program be strengthened as a top priority in efforts to control dengue fever.

Abstract

In conclusion, workers at the Tropodo tofu factory are exposed to high levels of PM2.5, which may contribute to decreased lung function, particularly among older workers. Continuous air quality monitoring and engineering control measures are recommended to reduce occupational exposure and protect worker health.The tofu industry is a sector that potentially generates fine particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution, which can reduce workers’ lung function. Exposure to PM2.5 in the workplace is a significant issue due to its direct impact on respiratory health. This study aims to analyze the risk of PM2.5 exposure and worker characteristics on lung function at the Tropodo Tofu Factory, Sidoarjo. This research used an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach involving 20 workers selected based on inclusion criteria. PM2.5 concentrations were measured using a Dust Particle Counter TC-8200 PM2.5, while lung function was tested using spirometry and questionnaires on smoking habits and age. Data were analyzed using univariate and correlation analyses. The results showed an average PM2.5 concentration of 288 µg/m³, exceeding the national ambient air quality standard (55 µg/m³). The mean FEV1 value indicated a moderate decline in lung function. A significant correlation was found between PM2.5 exposure and workers’ age with lung function. In conclusion, PM2.5 exposure in tofu production environments poses health risks to workers’ respiratory function. It is recommended that the factory increase the use of personal protective equipment and adopt cleaner combustion technologies to reduce PM2.5 emissions.
