Abstract

Hajj is an annual international ritual because it is carried out every year and involves Muslims from various parts of the world. Based on data from Siskohatkes, in 2022 there was a decrease in the number of pilgrims who died, which is 101 pilgrims, while in 2023 there was 8 times increase to 856 pilgrims who died. In 2022, the number of pilgrims with SOC embarkation who died was 19 pilgrims, while there was a significant increase in the number of deaths of pilgrims by approximately 6 times with the number of 129 pilgrims who died. The purpose of this study was to determine the risk factors for death of pilgrims for SOC group. This study is an observational quantitative study with a nested case control research design. This research was conducted in Central Java Province and Yogyakarta Special Region Province during the Hajj period 1444 H (2023). The result is that cardiomegaly (p-value:0,009; OR: 2.058; 95% Cl: 1.195-3.543), disease history (p-value<0.001; OR: 0.242; 95% Cl: 0.155-0.377), overweight and/or obesity (p-value<0.001; OR: 0.460; 95% Cl: 0.302-0.700) have a significant impact on the mortality of the Hajj pilgrims. It is hoped that Semarang Port Health Office can carry out monitoring and give more attention towards pilgrims who have cardiomegaly.

Abstract

 Background: “BCD” habits can help homosexual people and men who have sexwith men (MSM) prevent the transmission of sexually transmitted infections (STIs)and safeguard their partners. Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate how BCD behaviour affects the prevalence of STIs among Indonesian MSM.Methods: a cross-sectional study was conducted in 24 provinces in Indonesia fromApril to May 2023. The study population comprised MSM who had ever engaged insexual intercourse, either occasionally, once, or frequently, totaling 6,000 individuals. A sample of 3,515 participants was selected using the Respondent Driven Sampling (RDS) method. Integrated Biological and Behavior Survey (STBP) 2018-2019data was utilized. The data was analyzed using multivariate analyses with STATA14 software. Results: after controlling for the variables of pieces of information exposure and vaginal intercourse, the following behaviors were found to have a significant influence of the occurrence of STIs among MSM (p-value:0.050; AOR:1,62with 95% CI:0.96-2.73), condom use (p-value:0.050; AOR:0.37 with 95% CI:0.14-1.00), no drug use (p-value:0.040; AOR:1,67 with 95% CI:1.02-2.75). Conclusion:promoting faithful behavior towards a steady partner, consistent condom use duringsexual activity, and refraining from injections and drug use can effectively reducethe transmission of STIs among MSM.

Abstract

The study focuses on addressing fatigue among healthcare workers in Emergency Room (ER), vital in delivering health services but prone to worker fatigue. Using objective measures like cardiovascular load (%CVL) and Bourdon Wiersma test, it evaluates physical and mental fatigue. Leveraging the System Engineering Initiative for Patient Safety 2.0 (SEIPS 2.0) model, it comprehensively analyzes factors affecting fatigue. Data collection includes surveys and statistical analysis through Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). Results show all workers experience fatigue, with physical fatigue affected by age and gender, and mental fatigue influenced by workload. The outer model analysis confirms convergent and discriminant validity, and reliability of the constructs. The inner model analysis reveals the work system significantly affects fatigue, while the process does not. The study emphasizes the importance of addressing fatigue to improve worker well-being and enhance patient care in ER, providing actionable insights for healthcare organizations.

Abstract

The use of pesticides in the agricultural sector results in contamination of foodstuffs by pesticide residues, thus becoming a source of exposure to the body and resulting in health problems. The purpose of this study was to analyse the health risks due to the consumption of foodstuffs containing organophosphate residues in farmers. The design of this study was cross-sectional, employing the Environmental Health Risk Assessment (EHRA). The study population was farmers in the North Dempo District of Pagar Alam. A total of 117 farmers were sampled randomly. Environmental samples consisted of five red chilies and five tomatoes, which were selected purposively. Organophosphate residues were quantified using liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass Spectrometry. Body weight was measured using calibrated body scales. Activity pattern data were collected through interviews using a questionnaire. Data analysis was conducted using the  EHRA formulas. The results demonstrated the presence of Chlorpyriphos in red chillies  at a concentration of 3,05 mg/kg, while Profenofos was found at 0.0731 mg/kg and 0.0118 mg/kg.  The presence of Chlorpyriphos in tomatoes samples at a concentration of 0.4439 mg/kg, while Profenofos was found at 0.0112 mg/kg and 0.2043 mg/kg. The risk quotient  for consumption of red chillies containing Chlorpyriphos was found to be 0.0447, while that for Profenofos was 0.2476. The risk quotient for consumption of tomatoes containing Chlorpyriphos was found to be 0.0302, while that for Profenofos was 2.92. It can be concluded that respondents were at non-carcinogenic health risk due to consumption of tomatoes containing Profenofos.

Abstract

 Background: Stunting is still one of the focuses of health problems in the world.Stunting is caused by many factors, including access to sanitation. Inadequate access to sanitation can cause infectious diseases that impair nutritional absorption intoddlers during digestion, leading to stunting. Objective: This study examines theconnection between sanitation access and stunting in East Nusa Tenggara Provincealong with its confounding variables consisting of access to drinking water, toddlerage, gender, and residence. Method: The study design was cross-sectional with asample size of 4,224 children aged 0-59 months analyzed from the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey (IHS) data. Data were analyzed using univariate, bivariate (ChiSquare test), and multivariate (multiple logistic regression analyses with a risk factormodel). Results: Studies showed households with inadequate sanitation access canincrease the risk of stunting by 1.56 compared to those with adequate sanitation access. Other factors significantly associated with stunting included toddler age, gender, and residence. The problem of access to sanitation is related to residence anddefecation behavior. Conclusion: Increasing indiscriminate defecation behavior canincrease exposure to pathogens from feces which can cause diseases such as diarrhea, resulting in malnutrition and stunted growth. To reduce stunting in East NusaTenggara Province, the government is suggested to enhance programs to expandaccess to sanitation, especially in rural areas.

Abstract

Determining the prevalence of sarcopenia and identifying associated factors can aid in early detection and treatment among community-dwelling elderly. This study aims to estimate the prevalence of sarcopenia and identify associated factors. This cross-sectional study was conducted in the elderly community within the two areas of Public Health Center, Semarang, Indonesia, through random sampling. Sarcopenia was defined based on the 2019 Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) criteria. Data on socio-demographics, clinical, and functional status were collected and associated factors analyzed using multivariable logistic regression. Of the 153 participants, the prevalence of severe sarcopenia was 50.33%, and overall sarcopenia prevalence was 44.44%. Elderly individuals with severe sarcopenia had a mean age of 69.45, with a higher occurrence in women (79.2%) compared to men. Age (p=0.003; APR: 1.105; 95% CI: 1.035-1.180), toilet type (p=0.002; APR: 4.194; 95% CI: 1.677-10.493), and being female (p=0.049; APR: 2.341; 95% CI: 1.003-5.460) were identified as risk factors for severe sarcopenia. The prevalence of severe sarcopenia is elevated among community-dwelling elderly. Sarcopenia was defined as low muscle mass with low handgrip strength and/or low gait speed. Routine check-ups are needed to detect sarcopenia and its risk factors in primary health care to enable early intervention for sarcopenia in the elderly.

Abstract

Background: Cow’s milk allergy is relatively common among Indonesian infantswho are not exclusively breastfed. Despite extensive hydrolyzed formula and aminoacid-based formula are the recommended nutrition for infants with moderate-tosevere illness, not all parents could provide those specialized formulas, presumablydue to the high cost, low availability and poor palatability. In that case, soy-basedinfant formula could be an alternative nutrition. However, it was unknown whetherIndonesian mothers were aware on that alternative nutrition. Objective: We therefore assessed the knowledge levels of mothers who participated in an online platform of PrimaKu on the usefulness of soy-based infant formula to support growthand development of children with cow’s milk allergy. Methods: The study subjectsappeared to have sufficient levels of knowledge on the usefulness of soy-based infant formula for children with cow’s milk allergy. Results: In addition, by increasing their knowledge on iron and fiber fortification in soy-based infant formula, e.g.,through regular academic presentations, mothers could be more selective in choosing alternative nutrition for children with cow’s milk allergy. Conclusion: Our studysuggested that Indonesian mothers who were active in the online platform of Primaku had sufficient levels of knowledge on the usefulness of soy-based protein formanaging children with cow’s milk allergy.
