Abstract

ABSTRACT This study aims to provide a descriptive qualitative review of the role of epidemiological data in formulating public health policies, focusing on its function as a foundation for evidence-based and equitable decision-making. Using a qualitative-descriptive research design through a literature-based study, data were collected from peer-reviewed journals, official reports, and theoretical frameworks published between 2011 and 2025. The analysis was conducted through stages of data reduction, thematic categorization, and inductive interpretation to identify patterns in how epidemiological evidence supports public policy development. The findings reveal that epidemiological data play a critical role in five major domains: early detection and surveillance, identification of risk factors, evaluation of interventions, reduction of health inequalities, and enhancement of research-policy collaboration. These results indicate that effective policymaking depends on the integration of epidemiological evidence within structured frameworks such as evidence-informed policymaking and output-oriented policy engagement. Furthermore, the study highlights that epidemiological data not only improve efficiency and responsiveness in health governance but also promote fairness by identifying and addressing social and regional disparities in health outcomes. Despite challenges related to data accessibility, standardization, and interdisciplinary coordination, the research concludes that strengthening the use of epidemiological data is essential for achieving adaptive and just health policies. The study contributes theoretically by reinforcing the linkage between epidemiological research and policy design, and practically by outlining strategies for data-driven governance in public health. Keywords: Epidemiological data, public health policy, evidence-based decision-making, health equity, qualitative descriptive study,

Abstract

ABSTRACT This study aims to analyze the role of epidemiology in controlling infectious diseases through a community-based approach, emphasizing its contribution to strengthening public health resilience and participatory prevention systems. Using a qualitative descriptive method through a literature study, data were obtained from peer-reviewed journal articles, official reports, and academic publications published between 2015 and 2025. Data were analyzed inductively through thematic identification, data reduction, conceptual categorization, and synthesis. The findings show that integrating epidemiological frameworks with community participation enhances disease surveillance, early detection, behavioral change, and health education. Community-based strategies such as participatory surveillance, capacity building for health workers, and digital innovations like mobile health and wastewater-based epidemiology have proven effective in improving responsiveness and sustainability. The study expands the theoretical scope of epidemiology from a purely biomedical discipline to a socio-epidemiological paradigm that values cultural and behavioral contexts. Practically, it highlights the importance of empowering communities as co-creators of health data and solutions. Despite the limitation of relying on secondary data, this research provides a comprehensive understanding of how participatory epidemiology can strengthen equitable, inclusive, and adaptive health systems. Future research should combine mixed methods and field-based approaches to deepen contextual insights and enhance practical application. Keywords: epidemiology, community-based approach, infectious disease control, participatory surveillance, public health.

Abstract

ABSTRACT This study aims to provide a critical review of the role of molecular epidemiology in identifying chronic disease risk factors, emphasizing how molecular integration enhances the precision and validity of epidemiological analyses. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach through a systematic literature review, this research collected and analyzed data from peer-reviewed scientific articles, books, and official reports published between 2015 and 2025. Data were examined through document analysis, thematic coding, and inductive synthesis, allowing the identification of core themes and conceptual relationships within the existing body of knowledge. The findings reveal that molecular epidemiology bridges the gap between traditional population-based approaches and molecular biology by integrating genomic, metabolomic, and environmental data to uncover the biological mechanisms underlying chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disorders. Furthermore, multiomic profiling and machine learning models have improved risk prediction accuracy, clarified gene–environment interactions, and enabled the classification of molecular disease subtypes. However, challenges remain in biomarker validation, data standardization, and clinical translation. This study concludes that molecular epidemiology contributes significantly to the advancement of precision medicine by promoting more personalized prevention and intervention strategies. Its theoretical and practical implications extend to public health, data science, and biomedical research, underscoring the need for interdisciplinary collaboration and equitable access to molecular technologies in global health contexts. Keywords: molecular epidemiology, chronic diseases, gene–environment interaction, multiomics, precision medicine.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Introduction: The purpose of this study was to explore how workplace culture influences the consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) among office workers in Indonesia, considering the rising prevalence of UPF intake and its association with metabolic risks. Our goal was to fill a gap in the literature by examining contextual, cultural, and behavioral factors through a phenomenological lens. Methods: This qualitative phenomenological study was conducted over one month (September 2025) in an urban corporate office setting. Data were gathered through semi-structured in-depth interviews and focus group discussions involving a total of 18 participants. Participants provided written informed consent. Results: The study's main findings revealed three primary themes: (1) structural time pressure reinforcing reliance on UPFs, (2) workplace social norms that normalize processed food consumption, and (3) internal negotiation between practicality and health concerns. Additional findings included emotional comfort-seeking through UPF snacks during stressful workloads. Conclusion: By highlighting sociocultural and organizational determinants of UPF consumption, this work advances understanding of occupational health behavior. This study sheds light on the broader implications for workplace nutrition interventions. Future studies should examine longitudinal changes and test multilevel intervention models. Keywords: Ultra Processed Foods; Work culture; Office workers; Qualitative study; Phenomenology.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Diabetes mellitus is a degenerative disease with a globally increasing prevalence. In Indonesia, the prevalence reached 8.5% in 2018. The management of type II diabetes mellitus requires non-pharmacological approaches, including the consumption of low glycemic index foods. Kepok banana and butterfly pea flower have the potential to be used as functional snack ingredients in the form of a food bar to help control blood glucose levels. To determine the effect of a food bar made from kepok banana flour and butterfly pea flower on blood glucose levels in patients with type II diabetes mellitus in the working area of UPTD Puskesmas Delima, Pidie District. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pre-post test control group approach. The sample consisted of 30 patients with type II diabetes mellitus, divided into two groups: treatment and control. The treatment group was given 25 grams of food bar daily for 7 consecutive days, while the control group received standard therapy only. Random blood glucose levels were measured before and after the intervention using the Easy Touch GCU device. The average decrease in blood glucose levels in the treatment group was 63.27 mg/dL, while in the control group it was 21.13 mg/dL. There was a significant difference between the two groups after the intervention. The administration of a food bar made from kepok banana flour and butterfly pea flower significantly reduced blood glucose levels in patients with type II diabetes mellitus. This food bar can be considered a healthy snack alternative for individuals with type II diabetes mellitus.   Keywords: Kepok Banana Flour and Butterfly Pea Food Bar, Blood Glucose Level, Diabetes Mellitus Type II.
