Abstract

Background: The increasing prevalence of obesity in adolescents is a worrying public health problem, especially in urban and semi-urban areas. One of the main risk factors suspected to contribute is the consumption pattern of fast food that is high in calories and low in nutritional value. This study aims to analyze the relationship between fast food consumption patterns and the incidence of obesity in adolescents in Praya City, Central Lombok. Methods: This study used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional study design. A sample of 150 adolescents aged 13–18 years was selected purposively from several high schools in Praya City. Data were collected through questionnaires regarding the frequency and type of fast food consumed, as well as body mass index (BMI) measurements to determine obesity status. Data analysis was performed using the chi-square test and logistic regression. Results: The results of the analysis showed a significant relationship between the frequency of fast food consumption and the incidence of obesity in adolescents (p < 0.05). Adolescents who consume fast food more than three times a week have a 2.8 times higher risk of obesity compared to those who rarely consume it. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between fast food consumption patterns and the incidence of obesity in adolescents in Praya City. Nutrition education and promotion of healthy eating patterns need to be improved to reduce the risk of obesity among adolescents.

Abstract

Air pollution has become a critical environmental issue, particularly in densely populated urban areas, where high levels of emissions from transportation, industry, and household activities contribute to deteriorating air quality. This study aims to analyze the impact of air pollution on the respiratory health of urban populations. By combining quantitative data from air quality monitoring stations with qualitative data obtained through health surveys and medical records, this research identifies significant correlations between exposure to pollutants—such as PM2.5, NO₂, and SO₂—and the incidence of respiratory diseases including asthma, bronchitis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The findings indicate that prolonged exposure to poor air quality substantially increases the risk of respiratory issues, especially among vulnerable groups such as children, the elderly, and individuals with pre-existing conditions. This study highlights the urgent need for effective environmental policies and public health interventions to mitigate the negative health impacts of urban air pollution

Abstract

The Posyandu program is one of the government's strategic efforts to improve public health, especially toddlers, through community-based basic health services. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Posyandu program in improving the nutritional status of toddlers in remote areas. The research method used is a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional study design. Data were collected through a survey of 120 mothers of toddlers who actively participated in Posyandu activities in three remote villages. Nutritional status parameters were measured based on anthropometric indicators (weight for age, height for age, and weight for height) before and after the program intervention for six months. The results showed a significant increase in the nutritional status of toddlers after participating in the Posyandu program routinely, with a decrease in the prevalence of undernourished toddlers from 27% to 15%. Factors that contributed to the success of the program included the active involvement of cadres, the availability of additional food, and targeted nutritional counseling. This study concluded that the Posyandu program was effective in improving the nutritional status of toddlers in remote areas, although strengthening in terms of facilities, cadre training, and program continuity was still needed.

Abstract

Adolescence is a critical period in individual development, where lifestyle habits begin to form and can have long-term impacts on health. This study aims to analyze the effect of a healthy lifestyle on metabolic health in adolescents. A healthy lifestyle in this study includes a balanced diet, regular physical activity, good sleep quality, and avoidance of smoking and alcohol consumption. The research method used was a quantitative study with a cross-sectional approach, involving 300 adolescent respondents aged 13–18 years in urban areas. Data were collected through questionnaires and examination of metabolic parameters such as body mass index (BMI), fasting blood glucose levels, blood pressure, and lipid profiles. The results of the analysis showed that adolescents with a healthy lifestyle had a significantly better metabolic profile compared to adolescents with an unhealthy lifestyle (p < 0.05). These findings indicate that the implementation of a healthy lifestyle plays an important role in maintaining metabolic health and preventing the risk of non-communicable diseases in the future. Therefore, early lifestyle interventions need to be encouraged through health education and conducive environmental support.

Abstract

The problem of household waste management in densely populated areas is a crucial issue that has a direct impact on environmental and public health. This study aims to analyze the relationship between household waste management systems and environmental health conditions in Kekalik Jaya Village, Mataram City. The study used a quantitative approach with a descriptive-analytical design. Data were collected through field observations, questionnaires, and interviews with 100 heads of families selected by purposive sampling. The results showed that most households (65%) had not implemented waste sorting, and 42% still disposed of waste in inappropriate places, such as gutters or empty land. This condition was significantly correlated with the high incidence of environmental-based diseases such as diarrhea, ARI, and skin diseases. In addition, the lack of environmental education and limited waste management facilities also worsened the quality of environmental health in the area. This study recommends the need for policy interventions and community empowerment programs in more effective and sustainable waste management.

Abstract

Elderly individuals are a vulnerable age group prone to experiencing various psychological problems, one of which is stress. The level of stress among the elderly is influenced by multiple factors, including socioeconomic conditions and household income. This study aims to analyze the association between household income and stress levels among the elderly. The research design employed was cross-sectional, involving 150 elderly respondents aged ≥60 years, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a demographic characteristics questionnaire, household income information, and the standard stress measurement instrument, the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10). Data analysis was conducted using chi-square tests and logistic regression. The results showed that 64% of elderly individuals in the low-income category experienced moderate to high levels of stress, whereas only 28% of those with middle-to-high income experienced similar conditions. Statistical tests indicated a significant relationship between household income and stress levels among the elderly (p<0.05). Further analysis revealed that elderly individuals with low income had a 2.7 times higher risk of experiencing stress compared to those with higher income. These findings highlight the crucial role of economic factors in the mental health of the elderly. Intervention efforts focusing on improving economic well-being and providing social support are expected to help reduce the stress burden among the elderly population.

Abstract

Hypertension remains one of the major health problems in Indonesia, with a prevalence that continues to rise. Dietary factors, particularly sodium and potassium intake, are known to play a crucial role in blood pressure regulation. This study aims to analyze the relationship between sodium and potassium intake and blood pressure in hypertensive patients. The study employed an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample was obtained through purposive sampling of hypertensive patients at primary healthcare facilities. Data on sodium and potassium intake were collected using a 24-hour dietary recall method over three days and analyzed using nutrition analysis software. Blood pressure was measured by trained healthcare professionals using a standard sphygmomanometer. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression tests to determine the strength and direction of the relationships. The results showed a significant positive correlation between excessive sodium intake and increased blood pressure, while low potassium intake was negatively associated with blood pressure among hypertensive patients (p < 0.05). Other factors such as age, body mass index, physical activity, and smoking habits also influenced blood pressure, although their effects were less significant compared to sodium and potassium intake. These findings underscore the importance of dietary interventions as an integral part of hypertension management. In conclusion, controlling sodium intake and increasing the consumption of potassium-rich foods may serve as effective strategies in reducing the risk of hypertension-related complications.

Abstract

Stunting remains a major nutritional issue in Indonesia, influenced by various multidimensional factors, including dietary patterns and environmental sanitation conditions. This study aims to analyze the determinants of food consumption diversity and environmental sanitation as risk factors for stunting in young children. The research design uses a cross-sectional approach with respondents aged 24–59 months selected purposively. Food consumption data were obtained through a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ), while environmental sanitation data were collected using a structured questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using logistic regression to examine the relationship between food consumption diversity, environmental sanitation, and the incidence of stunting. The results of the study show that low food consumption diversity is significantly associated with an increased risk of stunting (p < 0.05). Children with less diverse diets are more likely to experience stunting compared to those who consume a more varied diet. Furthermore, inadequate environmental sanitation conditions, such as limited access to clean water and poor waste disposal systems, also proved to be significant risk factors for stunting. These findings emphasize that stunting is not only related to nutritional intake but also influenced by environmental health conditions that support children's growth and development. This study concludes that efforts to prevent stunting should be integrated by improving both dietary diversity and environmental sanitation. Multisectoral interventions involving the health, agriculture, education, and environmental sectors are expected to sustainably reduce the prevalence of stunting in Indonesia.

Abstract

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the leading causes of death in Indonesia and has a high prevalence among energy sector workers who are exposed to occupational stress, unhealthy lifestyles, and limited access to medical services. This study aims to analyze the implementation strategies of digital health for long-term CVD prevention in the energy sector. A descriptive-analytical method was used with a qualitative approach through semi-structured interviews involving occupational health managers, corporate medical personnel, and workers from three energy companies, supplemented by a review of national and international literature. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis techniques, focusing on enabling factors, barriers, and sustainability strategies. The findings indicate that successful implementation is influenced by company management support, the use of digital technologies such as mobile applications, telemedicine, and wearable devices, as well as active worker participation through education and health promotion programs. Key barriers include limited digital literacy, resistance to change, and infrastructure challenges. Nevertheless, digital health interventions have been shown to reduce CVD risk factors, raise worker awareness, and improve company productivity. This study concludes that digital health implementation strategies can serve as a long-term solution for CVD prevention in the energy sector. Ongoing collaboration between companies, medical personnel, and workers is essential to strengthen digital literacy, expand program coverage, and ensure the sustainability of digital health interventions as part of the company’s strategic investment.

Abstract

Lead poisoning in children remains a global environmental health issue with serious impacts on physical, cognitive, and behavioral development. This study aims to systematically review environmental and behavioral factors associated with lead poisoning in children. The research method employs a systematic review approach based on PRISMA guidelines. Literature was searched through databases including PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar, covering publications from 2013 to 2023. Selected articles were observational studies focusing on children and reporting risk factors for lead poisoning. Selection, data extraction, and quality assessment were conducted independently by two researchers using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal Tools. The review found that environmental factors such as air pollution from motor vehicles, the use of lead-based paint, and contamination of water and soil from industrial waste are major contributors to lead exposure in children. Additionally, behavioral factors such as hand-to-mouth activity, poor personal hygiene, and malnutrition increase the risk of lead absorption. Socioeconomic factors, including parental education and household income, also influence vulnerability levels. The findings indicate that children living in industrial and high-traffic urban areas are at higher risk compared to those in non-industrial regions. The conclusion of this review emphasizes the need for comprehensive preventive efforts through pollution source control, improved health education, and nutritional interventions. Multisectoral strategies involving government, healthcare professionals, and the community are essential to protect children from the harmful effects of lead poisoning.
