Abstract

Traditional media are increasingly marginalized by ‘the new media’ or ‘social media’, which are declared as advanced media. Behind this progress, many studies state that online media causes a lot of misinformation in the community. During the COVID-19 pandemic, people continue to look for sources of information from trusted media, between both media to be used as a reliable reference. This article's objective is to promote public understanding of the COVID-19 pandemic by describing how traditional media played a crucial role in disseminating accurate information and combating rapidly spreading misinformation. The study was a literature study using PRISMA guidelines. Relevant articles included in the analysis were obtained from several scientific databases such as PubMed, SAGE, Science Direct, and PLOS One (published between 2020 and 2021), by using the relevant keywords “traditional media”, “misinformation”, “COVID-19”, then determined by criteria feasibility: (1) scientific journals, (2) research objectives, (3) open access, and (4) research results that are clear and in accordance with research objectives. We come to the conclusion that the majority of the public are understanding of and have a high level of trust in traditional media as a source of credible information during the COVID-19 pandemic and as a guide for preventing the spread of misinformation.

Abstract

The clinical manifestations of COVID-19 are the developments and impacts caused by COVID-19. Each person's clinical manifestations vary, such as mild and severe stages. The elderly and pre-elderly as a risk group usually experience severe clinical manifestations. As a result, they have a higher fatality rate than other groups with the highest mortality cases in Palembang City. This study aims to determine the associations between clinical manifestations and final status in the elderly and pre-elderly aged 50 with COVID-19 in Palembang City. This study uses a descriptive-analytic, cross-sectional research design by analyzing secondary data Epidemiological Surveillance Information System (SISUGI) COVID-19. The research sample was 278 data on elderly and pre-elderly with COVID-19 aged 50 in Palembang City who met the inclusion criteria. Data analysis techniques were univariate, bivariate, and multivariate. Univariate results were that 14.7% of elderly and pre-elderly died, and 37.4% experienced severe clinical manifestations. Bivariate analysis showed significant associations (p < 0.0001) between clinical manifestations and the last level of the elderly and pre-elderly with COVID-19 in Palembang City (OR: 3.982; CI 95%: 1.977-8.024). There are associations between clinical manifestations and final status after controlling for variables of occupation, age, and history of comorbidities. The comorbid history variable was found as the confounding variable. The research hopes to become the basis for categorizing the clinical manifestations of COVID-19 to prevent poor final status, especially in the elderly and pre-elderly groups

Abstract

Majene Regency has the second highest prevalence of stunting in West Sulawesi by having the highest number of cases found in the village of Rangas. Due to these reasons, it is necessary to research the determinants of stunting, so the studies are expected to provide input to the Majene district government in conducting interventions related to stunting. A case-control study design was used. The subjects were the children aged 12-59 months who lived in the Rangas Village which the children under five years diagnosed stunting based on measurements from the Nutrition Executors (NE) of the Public Health Center. Meanwhile, the controls were children under five years who had not been diagnosed stunting based on measurements from the Nutrition Executors (NE) of the Public Health Center. The samples were 72 respondents with a ratio of 1:1, and the under-five children's mothers as the research respondents. Purposive sampling was used. The stunting data was obtained from the health office, while the identity of the respondents, the characteristics of the mothers, and the characteristics of the children under five years were carried out directly by interview using a questionnaire and strengthened by Mother and Child Health (MCH) Book. Data analysis used the chi-Square test and multiple logistic regression tests. Multivariate analysis results showed that the incidence of stunting was influenced by several factors, including parity (OR=30.40; 95%CI: 3.86-239.43), Maternal Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) history < 23.5 cm during pregnancy (OR=2.41; 95%CI: 1.04-5.56) and not exclusive breastfeeding (OR=3.21; 95%CI: 1.29-7.94). The conclusion of this study is parity, a history of maternal MUAC during pregnancy, and not exclusive breastfeeding are risk factors for stunting in children under five years in Banggai District. Therefore, it is necessary to improvement of health promotion strategy for pregnant women by maximizing the first 1000 days of life and campaign two healthy children needs to be maximized.

Abstract

Lead exposure to children results in a negative effect on behaviour and cognitive performance. Air lead concentration might be influenced by traffic density on the road. Schools are the locations affected by traffic-related pollution. This study aims to explore the correlation between Serum Lead Levels (SLL) and academic achievement of elementary school students, comparing the distance of the school from the road. This cross-sectional study included 54 5th and 6th-grade students from two schools that differed in the distance from the main road. We observed the students' SLL with laboratory analysis and academic performance from the final score of five subjects. The mean difference of SLL and academic achievement between the two schools were performed using the Mann-Whitney U test, and the correlation between lead concentration and academic performance using the Spearman-Rho test. This study observed that all students were exposed to lead with the SLL range of 0.39-5.97 µg/dL in the school which is located road side, and 0.42-6.44 µg/dL in the school far from main road. The insignificant difference in the students' SLL (p=0.43) between the two schools but significant in students-level of academic performance (p=0.03) were discovered. Serum lead level correlated negatively with academic performance. (r=-0.234, p=0.044). It is suggested to give more attention to preventing lead exposure in children through the implementation of some prevention programmes and policies.

Abstract

In recent years, short sleep duration has been proposed and received attention as a modifiable factor of obesity. Observational studies on the relationship between sleep duration and obesity in children and adolescents in the Asian region have been carried out. This study aims to determine the relationship between short sleep duration and obesity in children and adolescents in Asia. This study used a meta-analysis method. Search for articles using the Pubmed, Proquest, Science direct and Google Scholar databases. Article search is limited to research in English, publications from 2000 to 2020 and free full text articles. Data is processed using the Revman 5.3 application. There were 12 research articles that were systematically reviewed from 1,281 identified articles. Ten of these articles were included in the meta-analysis. The results of the study proved that there was a significant relationship between short sleep duration and obesity in children and adolescents with a pooled OR of 1.15 (95% CI: 1.04-1.28), and an analysis of the age subgroup also showed the same results as the pooled OR. 1.17 (95% CI: 1.02-1.35) in the age group before 3-4 years and combined OR 1.29 (95% CI: 1.14-1.48) in children aged 6-12 years. Avoiding short sleep duration can be considered as one way to reduce the risk of obesity in children and adolescents.

Abstract

Stunting is a long-term malnutrition issue that results in growth abnormalities in children, with the child's height being lower or shorter (dwarf) than the average for their age. The prevalence of stunting in Indonesia in 2018 was 28%, while in Banyumas District was 32%. The study analyzed the determinants of stunting incidences based on the ecological approach at the stunting locus village in the Banyumas District. This research was quantitative research on the relationship between intrapersonal, interpersonal, institutional, community, and public policies and the classification of stunting. The subject was all mothers of stunted toddlers in the stunting locus village (ten villages) in seven sub-districts in Banyumas District (90 mothers) chosen by stratified random sampling technique. The inclusion criterion is mothers of stunted toddlers. The validity and reliability of the questionnaire tested on 30 respondents before the study. Data analytic techniques used factor analysis to identify the factors related to stunting incidences. The findings of a reduction in factor analysis are reached with three factors out of the 14 factors, namely factor 1, 2, and 3 had 45.657%, 10.511%, and 8.374% variance values. The highest determinants of stunting were the institutional factor (BKB, nutrition officers, midwives, Puskesmas, and Posyandu. An integrated effort between healthcare workers and the regional health office is necessary to reduce the incidence of stunting among under-fives.

Abstract

Human mobility has the potential to act as a vector for the spread of infectious agents. Efforts to prevent COVID-19 in the transportation sector must be carried out correctly. This research aims to find out the description of COVID-19 prevention behavior on public transportation. This is descriptive research with a qualitative approach. The study was conducted in Jabodetabek. The variable in this study was the prevention of COVID-19 on public transportation. This study’s informants are public transportation users selected by purposive sampling. Data were collected by conducting in-depth interviews, analyzed using the Content Analysis method, and presented in a narrative for interpretation. Atlas. ti was used to transcribe the results of in-depth interviews with informants. The findings indicate that not all modes of public transportation have the optimal level of COVID-19 prevention. Prevention of COVID-19 that is common on some public conveyance includes wearing a mask, vaccination status check, checking body temperature, hand washing facilities or hand sanitizers, and physical distancing rules. There are rules for the commuter line: do not talk while on the commuter line. Airplanes are required to have a negative PCR test. Masks and the social distancing scheme are carried out in Jaklingko and Busway (Transjakarta).COVID-19 prevention in microlets is still not optimal because keeping a distance is difficult because the reduction in passengers will affect the drivers’ income. It is hoped that the public will comply with the behavior of preventing COVID-19 in public transportation, and the government and related agencies will provide facilities and carry out monitoring and evaluation of the prevention of COVID-19 in public transportation.

Abstract

The 2017 IDHS shows that modern family planning tools/methods tend to decrease while traditional family planning methods increase. This study aimed to determine the factors associated with using conventional contraceptives in Indonesia. This study uses secondary data from the 2017 IDHS. The sample size is 11,542 women of childbearing age 15-49 years. The dependent variable in this study was the use of traditional contraceptives. In contrast, the independent variables consisted of age, education level, mother's occupation, economic status, area of residence, number of children, desire to have children, the decision to use contraception, knowledge of family planning tools/methods, knowledge of fertile periods, visits by field officers, sources of information from the mass media, and ownership of health insurance. The analysis results show that women of childbearing age who are <20 years old or >35 years old, have a higher education level, and live in urban areas tend to use traditional contraceptive methods. Furthermore, women of childbearing age with good knowledge about family planning methods and their fertile period also tend to use traditional contraceptive methods. In addition, the husband's decision to use contraception and not to accept visits by field workers also influences women of childbearing age to use traditional contraceptive methods. The sources of information from the mass media and the use of conventional contraceptives were not different. BKKBN, through Family Planning Field Officers (PLKB), needs to socialize the family planning program so that it can motivate people to switch to modern contraceptive methods, especially long-term contraceptive methods.
