Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) cases in Karanganyar Regency from 2017 to 2021 fluctuated, with the highest number recorded at the Karanganyar Community Health Center (Puskesmas) and the lowest at the Jatipuro Community Health Center. This study aims to analyze the spatial pattern of DHF incidence in Karanganyar Regency. The study used a quantitative descriptive design and was conducted from February–April 2024 in the Karanganyar Regency Health Office's working area. The data used included DHF cases from 21 community health centers in 2017–2021, population, population density, and regional elevation. Spatial analysis was conducted using QGIS and GeoDa with the Local Indicator of Spatial Autocorrelation (LISA) method. The results showed that population density and regional elevation in 2017 and 2019–2021 exhibited spatial autocorrelation with a scattered pattern, whereas population in 2017–2021 and DHF cases in 2018 showed no spatial autocorrelation. The areas of Kebakkramat 1, Jaten 1, Jaten 2, Tasikmadu, and Karanganyar Health Centers have been identified as hotspots with a high risk of dengue fever transmission from the surrounding areas.

Abstract

Breast milk (ASI) is the best food for babies because it contains complete nutrients to support optimal growth and development. However, although the WHO recommends exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months, many mothers still do not implement it optimally due to work factors, lack of support, low knowledge, cultural influences, and the promotion of formula milk. This study aims to determine the factors associated with low exclusive breastfeeding coverage in Aluepade Village, Kuala Batee District, Southwest Aceh Regency. The research design is descriptive, correlational, and cross-sectional, involving 35 breastfeeding mothers through a total sampling technique. Data were collected using a questionnaire from June 10 to July 13, 2024. The study results showed a significant association between low exclusive breastfeeding coverage and several factors, including age, education, employment, maternal health, knowledge, stress, support from health workers, and family support. It is hoped that health workers can increase motivation and educate mothers and families about the importance of exclusive breastfeeding for infant health.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health problem in Indonesia, including in Sukoharjo Regency, which shows year-to-year changes in the number of cases. This study aims to describe TB cases in Sukoharjo Regency during the 2017–2021 period. The study used a descriptive design utilizing secondary data from TB case reports from 12 community health centers and reported to the Sukoharjo Regency Health Office. Data were analyzed descriptively to describe the number of suspected, confirmed, treated, and recovered cases. The results showed that the number of TB cases fluctuated during the study period, with the highest number of cases occurring in 2019 and the lowest in 2020. Variations in the number of cases were influenced by individual factors, environmental factors, and the implementation of TB screening and examination programs. In addition, obstacles were still found in treatment that could potentially lead to recurrent cases, discontinuation of treatment, therapy failure, and drug resistance. Therefore, evaluation and strengthening of TB control programs are necessary to support the achievement of the 2030 tuberculosis elimination target.
