Abstract

Indonesia is among the five countries with the highest burden of stunting. Food insecurity reflecting the availability of food in the household is one of the indirect causes of undernutrition. This study examines the relationship between food insecurity and stunting in Indonesia. We used data from the 2021 Indonesian Nutrition Status Survey (SSGI) with a sample size of 82,777 under-five children selected using multistage random sampling. The relationship between food insecurity and stunting was calculated using cox regression to obtain crude and adjusted prevalence ratios (PR) considering strata and weights. Children from households with moderate food insecurity had a (PR unadj)  1.24 (1,18 – 1,31) times higher risk of stunting, and the risk rose in households with severe food insecurity (PR unadj) 1.39 (1,27 – 1,53). Subgroup analysis based on regional categories showed that the association between food insecurity and stunting was only significant in rural areas. Children in rural regions who experienced moderate food insecurity had a 1.09 (95% CI 1.02-1.16) times greater risk of stunting and an increased risk of 1.15 times (95% CI 1.03 – 1.28) in households with severe food insecurity. Interventions are needed to prevent stunting by improving household food security, particularly in rural areas. Further research is needed with better study designs to prove a causal relationship between food insecurity and stunting.

Abstract

The COVID-19 vaccine is known to prevent infection, disease severity, and death from COVID-19. The emergence of a new variant of the SARS-CoV-2 would have an impact on the vaccine's effectiveness. This study aims to examine the association between COVID-19 vaccination status and the severity of COVID-19 symptoms during the dominating period of the Omicron variant. This is a cross-sectional study using secondary data from confirmed COVID-19 patients who were reported in the Ministry of Health's Online Hospital System for the period January–July 2022. Using logistic regression analysis, we calculated the adjusted odds ratio (AOR) of the association between vaccination status and the severity of COVID-19 symptoms. A total of 221,673 confirmed COVID-19 patient data were analyzed. The proportion of patients with severe-critical symptoms is 6.25%. Multivariate analysis showed there was a statistically significant association between COVID-19 vaccination status and the severity of COVID-19 disease with an AOR 0.73 (95% CI 0.65-0.82) in the 1st  dose, 0.38 (95% CI 0.35-0.41) at the 2nd dose, and 0.09 (95% CI 0.07-0.11) at the 3rd dose. But the magnitude of the association in the 2nd and 3rd was lower in the age group >60 years, the group with comorbidities, and the male sex group compared to the younger age group, those without comorbidities, and the female group. It can be concluded that COVID-19 vaccination reduces the risk of severity of COVID-19 disease. Government acceleration efforts and public awareness are needed to immediately increase the coverage of the booster dose of vaccination. Further prospective studies are needed to monitor the effectiveness and duration of vaccine protection as other new variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus emerge.

Abstract

Research by Trisnaini (2013) in Ogan Ilir Regency found that there were 13 depot refill drinking water which water samples were positive for Coliform. Data by the Environmental Health Engineering Center of Palembang on 136 depot found that not all depot were not suitable with the requirements of Ministry of Health Regulations RI Number492/2010. The impact is low drinking water quality that potentially cause diseases. The purpose of this study was to analyze the quality of depot refill drinking water in the city of Palembang based on the parameters of Coliform, Escherecia Coli, and pH. This research used a quantitative design, with a survey method. The research was conducted in the city of Palembang. The research population was 136 depot refill drinking water in the city of Palembang. Sampling was using proportionate stratified random sampling. Based on the results of laboratory tests, it was found that from 36 depot refill drinking water there were 2 (5.8%) which showed positive results of water samples containing Coliform, 2 (5.8%) which were positive for Escherecia Coli, and most of (91%) water samples examined did not suitable the health requirements on the parameter of pH. It is concluded that most of the water samples from the depot refill drinking water studied had met the health requirements based on the parameters of Coliform and Escherecia Coli, but most did not suitable the health requirements for the pH parameter based on the Ministry of Health Regulations RI Number 492/2010.The need for increased supervision of refill drinking water depots

Abstract

The state of prehypertension that is often neglected in young adults is not inferior to hypertension in contributing to a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases. Several simple anthropometric indices may be used as prehypertension prognostic tools, including Body Mass Index (BMI), Body Shape Index (ABSI), Waist Circumference (WC), Weight to Height Ratio (WHtr), and Body Roundness Index (BRI). This study aimed to compare several anthropometric examinations for detecting prehypertension in male medical students. The cross-sectional study design was conducted on 107 male medical students. Direct measurements of the respondents were carried out with blood pressure data collection and anthropometric examination. The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AROC) analysis with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to assess all anthropometric measures’ discriminatory power to assess the risk of prehypertension in the participants. Participants with prehypertension were relatively older and had less active physical activity than normotensive (p<0.05). The mean BMI, BRI, WC, and WHtR were significantly higher in the prehypertensive group than in the normotensive group. However, ABSI was not showing any relationship with blood pressure. The process with 95% CI of blood pressure classification related to anthropometric measures indicates that BMI showed the highest AROC values for the prehypertensive state (AROC: 0.73, 95% CI: 0.63–0.82), and WC had the lowest AROCs (AROC: 0.63, 95% CI: 0.52–0.63). BMI, BRI, WC, and WHtr may be applied as prognostic assessments for prehypertension states in young adult males.

Abstract

The severity of COVID-19 is influenced by many factors, one of which is comorbid hypertension. The National Emergency Hospital Wisma Atlit Kemayoran is a special hospital and the only hospital that treats patients from severe to asymptomatic. This study aims to look at the association between comorbid hypertension and the severity of COVID-19. The design of this study was a case control conducted from October to November 2022. The data used was the secondary data from the medical records of patients at National Emergency Hospital Wisma Atlit Kemayoran in 2021. The case group totaled 288 research subjects who experienced COVID-19 with moderate and severe symptoms, while the control group totaled 302 research subjects who experienced COVID-19 with mild and asymptomatic symptoms. The results showed a statistically significant association between hypertension and the severity of COVID-19 with OR 3.40, 95% CI 1.88 to 6.34 and p-value <0.001. There is also a statistically significant association between comorbid hypertension and the severity of COVID-19 with Adjusted OR 3.33, 95% CI 1.79 to 6.13 and p-value <0.001 after being controlled by age, vaccination status, and education level. It is hoped to be an illustration that the management of hypertension is very important in order to prevent the worsening of the condition in COVID-19 patients.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has become a global crisis that has caused various impacts on the psychological well-being and physical activity of the community. Correspondingly, physical activity is known to have a relationship and affect psychological well-being. Therefore, this study aimed to obtain a comprehensive picture of the level and impact of the activity on psychological well-being in the adult population as well as recommendations for physical activity that could be done to improve psychological well-being during the COVID-19 pandemic. The research method used was a systematic literature review with the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Item for Systematic Review and Meta-Analytic) analysis method. Search literature on the EBSCOhost, ProQuest, and ScienceDirect databases. Literature searches were limited to research articles published between January 1, 2020, to May 20, 2021. The initial search yielded 5,136 articles and finally found 15 articles that met the criteria. The results of the review revealed that during the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a decrease in the level of physical activity and psychological well-being, especially in the adult population, especially women and young adult groups. In addition, it was found that physical activity was either directly or indirectly associated with symptoms of depression, stress, anxiety, and positive feelings and emotions. Physical activity with moderate intensity has the most significant influence on psychological well-being. The forms of activity included lifting weights, yoga, double tennis, aerobics, muscle fitness, and explosive fitness. Based on this, it is certain that physical activity with moderate intensity has the most significant impact on psychological well-being, especially in increasing positive feelings and emotions and reducing depression, stress, and anxiety in adults.

Abstract

Unwanted Pregnancy (UP) is a condition in which a partner or the opposite sex does not want a pregnancy or birth between partners. The incidence of Unwanted Pregnancy in Indonesia is still high (17.5%). Unwanted Pregnancy has an impact on the health of the mother, infant, and family problems. The study aimed to determine the relationship between access to information about family planning and Unwanted Pregnancy in Indonesia. This type of research is quantitative with a cross-sectional design using Program Performance and Accountability Survey 2019 secondary data. The independent variable is access to information about family planning with the dependent variable being Unwanted Pregnancy. Confounding variables are predisposing factors (age, education, occupation, parity, and marital status), enabling factors (area of ​​residence, socioeconomic status, family planning needs), and reinforcing factors (support from health workers). The sample of this study were women of childbearing age 15-49 years who were recorded as pregnant. Multivariate analysis using multivariate logistic regression. Results of this study show that there is a significant relationship between access to family planning information and UP in Indonesia, after controlling for confounding variables (p-value 0.001) (OR=1.964;95%CI:1.334-2.893). Health promotion efforts are needed through communication, information, and health education regarding the importance of access to information about family planning and UP so that it can influence the behavior of women of childbearing age in Indonesia.

Abstract

Potty training assistance for children with Down syndrome is challenging because it takes longer to adapt and has physical and cognitive limitations. In addition, educating children with Down syndrome differs from one child to another. The study aimed to explore the role of parents or caregivers in teaching the potty training process to children with Down syndrome at States Special Needs School Semarang. The research was conducted using a qualitative phenomenological approach to determine parental participation in potty training in children with Down syndrome. Data collection was carried out by in-depth interviews and observations supplemented by field notes which were then transcribed verbatim. The search for informants used a purposive sampling method selected based on specific considerations with a total of 10 primary informants and those who cared for children with Down syndrome aged 7-14 years and were still in elementary school and two triangulated informants from teachers. Data analysis was carried out thematically. The results of the study found that the knowledge of most caregivers about potty training was limited to taking their children to the toilet, most of the children with Down syndrome were unable to urinate independently, the caregiver's difficulties when teaching potty training were problems communicating with the child, the caregiver's task in the potty training process was as follows: by finding solutions to make it easier for children to communicate and understand children's conditions. This qualitative research concludes that there is a theme regarding the role of caregivers with Down syndrome in potty training: caregiver knowledge about potty training, the behavior of children with Down syndrome during potty training, caregiver difficulties in potty training, and the caregiver's role or task in potty training.

Abstract

COVID-19 transmission can be controlled through RT-PCR and RDT-Ag diagnostic tests, yet neither test performs well. This has encouraged people to search information for the COVID-19 pandemic response and exposure fears on Google. Therefore, this study analyzes the correlation between COVID-19 diagnosis tracing on Google and new COVID-19 cases in Indonesia. An explanatory mixed method study design was used. A quantitative study was done using time-lag correlation between the keywords, namely “Antigen”, “Swab” dan “PCR” based on Google Trends™ (https: // trend.Google.com/trends) from 13 July 2020 to November 2021. The search peaks for diagnosis and their geographical distribution were described qualitatively. There is a correlation between COVID-19 diagnosis searches on the keywords Swab (r = 0.787, P-Value    = 0.000) and Antigen (r = 0.378, P-Value    = 0.003) with COVID-19 new positive cases. The cumulative number of daily tests is also correlated with COVID-19 diagnosis searches (r = 0.617, P-Value     = 0.000 (PCR keywords) and r = -0.337, P-Value    = 0.003 (Keywords Swab)). There was also a correlation between searches for COVID-19-related keywords PCR, Swab, and Antigen and the frequency of daily PCR and Antigen tests (P-Value   <0.005). Google Trend has the potential as a monitoring tool for people's diagnosis behavior. Further study of Google Trends is required to strengthen the potential of Google Trends for monitoring COVID-19 cases in Indonesia.

Abstract

Rawalo sub-district had a relatively high number of COVID-19 cases compared to other sub-districts in Banyumas Regency. The government provides COVID-19 vaccination which aims to reduce the number of COVID-19 cases by forming Herd Immunity in the community. The elderly are a group at high risk of morbidity and mortality due to exposure to COVID-19. However, the coverage of COVID-19 vaccination for the elderly at the Rawalo Health Center is still relatively low. This study was aimed  to evaluate the program with the CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product) model in a complex and comprehensive manner regarding how the implementation of the COVID-19 vaccination program in the elderly. This research was a qualitative study with a descriptive approach using observation and in-depth interview methods selected by purposive sampling technique. The research subjects as the main informants included the Head of the Puskesmas, the Head of the COVID-19 Vaccination Program Team, the COVID-19 Vaccination Coordinator and health cadres. Meanwhile, the elderly group and the Banyumas Regency Health Office as triangulation informants. The results showed that vaccination coverage in the elderly was still low, at 10% for dose 3. This was due to less thorough education, lack of human resources (vaccination officers), and ineffective coordination, there is data that is not synchronous or valid. There are technical and non-technical obstacles in recording and reporting. Thus, improvements need to be made to aspects that affect the vaccination implementation process and low coverage.
