Abstract

Introduction: Childhood stunting remains a major public health concern, particularly in remote areas where nutritional inadequacy, limited access to preventive health services, and unsafe household water may occur simultaneously. This study examined the associations of feeding practices, immunization adherence, and clean water use with stunting among under-five children in the Arimop Public Health Center area, Boven Digoel Regency, Indonesia. Research Methodology: An observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design was conducted in July 2026. The study population comprised 296 registered under-five children, from whom 75 children were selected using purposive sampling. Data were obtained through questionnaires and anthropometric measurements. Descriptive and bivariate analyses were performed to examine associations between the independent variables and stunting. Results: Of the participating children, 53.3% had suboptimal feeding practices, 44.0% had incomplete or non-adherent immunization, and 30.7% used household water that did not meet health requirements. Stunting was identified in 34.7% of children. Feeding practices, immunization adherence, and clean water use were each significantly associated with stunting (all p<0.001). Conclusion: Stunting among under-five children was associated with nutritional practices, preventive healthcare adherence, and household water conditions. Integrated prevention should therefore strengthen appropriate child feeding, completion of routine immunization, and access to safe household water, particularly in remote communities.

Abstract

Introduction: Tuberculosis remains a major public health concern, particularly in communities where household behaviors and environmental conditions may facilitate transmission. Indoor smoking can impair respiratory defenses and reduce indoor air quality, while inappropriate temperature and humidity may create household environments that are less favorable for respiratory health. This study examined the associations of indoor smoking, household temperature, and humidity with tuberculosis occurrence in South Sorong, Indonesia. Research Methodology: A quantitative observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among 79 respondents in the working area of Fkour Public Health Center, South Sorong Regency. Data were collected using questionnaires, a tuberculosis screening form, and direct measurements of indoor temperature and humidity using a thermohygrometer. Descriptive and bivariate analyses were performed using Chi-square-based tests with a significance level of 0.05. Results: Tuberculosis was identified in 17 of 79 respondents (21.5%). TB occurred in 65.2% of respondents with poor indoor smoking practices compared with 3.6% among those with good practices. TB was also identified in 57.7% of respondents living in houses with non-compliant temperatures compared with 3.8% in compliant houses, and in 52.2% of respondents living in houses with non-compliant humidity compared with 8.9% in compliant houses. Indoor smoking, temperature, and humidity were significantly associated with tuberculosis occurrence (all p<0.001). Conclusion: Indoor smoking and unfavorable household environmental conditions were significantly associated with tuberculosis occurrence. Strengthening smoke-free home policies, household environmental monitoring, contact investigation, and timely diagnostic follow-up may support community-based tuberculosis prevention and control.
