Abstract

Ergonomic hazards are one of the causes of health problems in workers, including causing Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) complaints. MSDs in workers affect physical fitness, reduce working days/hours, and ultimately are unable to work. WHO states that around 1.71 billion people have musculoskeletal conditions worldwide. MSDs complaints in Indonesia are a separate focus, research on MSDs complaints in the informal sector shows that 66% of workers experience MSDs complaints. One industry that has a high risk of MSDs is welding. The purpose of this study was to create an ergonomic hazard control model for informal welding sector workers in Greater Bandung. The research approach is quantitative, the type of analytical observational research with a cross-sectional design. The study population was informal welding sector workers in Greater Bandung, sample was taken using a purposive sampling technique, and the total number of samples in this study was 100 workers. The analysis used in this study was the chi-square test to see the relationship between variables. Modeling in this study will use binary logistic regression. The results of the study showed that working climate, working posture, workload, and physical fitness simultaneously influenced MSDs complaints of informal welding workers (p-value < 0.05). Based on these findings, the control of MSDs complaints can be achieved by effectively managing work climate, working posture, workload, and physical fitness.

Abstract

People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) face various challenges, including physical health issues, social stigma, time constraints, and the need to balance physical and emotional well-being. These challenges often lead to emotional distress as PLWHA strive to maintain stability. This study aimed to analyze the emotion regulation strategies employed by PLWHA using the process model of emotion regulation, specifically examining the application of situation selection, situation modification, attentional deployment, cognitive change, and response modulation in regulating emotions. This study employed a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with eight key informants, five key informant companions, and one expert informant, as well as Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) involving four peer companions. Data triangulation, both by source and technique, was used to ensure validity, and thematic content analysis was applied for data interpretation. Findings revealed that PLWHA sought supportive environments to minimize negative emotions, used distraction strategies, and employed perspective-taking and emotional reassessment to manage emotions. However, response modulation produced mixed outcomes, with some informants engaged in maladaptive behaviors such as excessive coffee and cigarette consumption, alcohol use, and same-sex relationships, while others turned to religious practices. This study highlights that emotional instability occasionally leads to risky behaviors, including sexual activities aimed at intentionally spreading the virus. These results emphasize the urgent need for targeted emotional support interventions to improve the PLWHA’s well-being, helping them develop healthier emotion regulation strategies to strengthen resilience and quality of life.

Abstract

Neonatal mortality is a leading cause of infant deaths, particularly in developing countries. In Serdang Bedagai Regency, the coverage of neonatal visits remains low, contributing to the high neonatal mortality rate and causing economic losses. This study aims to identify factors related to the neonatal visit coverage rate in Serdang Bedagai Regency, North Sumatra, Indonesia. This study used a cross-sectional design with multivariate analysis. Data were collected from 200 mothers with babies aged 0-28 days in five health centers in Serdang Bedagai Regency. The variables analyzed include age, education, economic status, knowledge, maternal attitudes, culture, family support, midwife attitudes, access to health facilities, and service quality. The data were analyzed using logistic regression. The results showed that the variables consistently and significantly affecting the increase in neonatal visit coverage were maternal education, knowledge about neonatal visits, local culture, husband/family support, and the quality of visit services. Factors that significantly contributed to increasing coverage of neonatal visits were maternal education (p-value = 0.004, OR = 14.285), maternal knowledge (p-value = 0.000, OR= 75.920), local culture (p-value = 0.000, OR = 57.105), husband/family support (p-value = 0.000, OR = 77.763), and service quality (p-value = 0.000, OR = 47.474). These factors have a major influence in supporting the success of the neonatal visit program, with maternal knowledge and family support being the most dominant factors.. Efforts to increase coverage should involve educating mothers, involving families, and enhancing services while considering local wisdom.

Abstract

Latent Tuberculosis Infection (LTBI) is a condition in which an individual carries the TB bacteria without showing symptoms of active disease. An estimated 2.3 billion people globally are infected with LTBI, with household contacts of TB patients identified as a high-risk group. This systematic review aims to identify risk factors for LTBI among household contacts of TB patients. We conducted a literature search using Science Direct, PubMed, and Google Scholar, covering the period from 2019 to 2024. Inclusion criteria included studies on LTBI risk factors among household contacts of TB patients, written in English or Indonesian, research articles, and participants who lived with an active TB patient for at least one night and/or had frequent interactions with the patient within three months prior to TB treatment, Interferon-Gamma Release Assays (IGRA) or Tuberculin Skin Test (TST) tests were required. We evaluated article quality using the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) checklist. Nine articles were included. LTBI risk factors among household contacts of TB patients include increasing age, male, occupation type (farmers or laborers or fishermen), duration of employment for more than 10 years, duration of working hours for more than 8 hours per day, contact with TB patients, sharing a bedroom with TB patients, bedroom density, overweight, and owning pets. Government, healthcare workers, and the society particularly household contacts of TB patients, must understand these LTBI risks to prevent further transmission and support the 2030 TB elimination program.

Abstract

Maternal health remains a critical global health priority, especially in rural areas where Antenatal Care (ANC) services often face significant challenges, including limited resources, low awareness, and cultural barriers. Male involvement plays a vital role in improving maternal health outcomes. This systematic review examines factors influencing male participation in ANC services in rural settings. A literature search was conducted using PubMed, ProQuest, and Scopus databases from 2019 to 2024. Keywords included "pregnant woman," "rural population," "antenatal care," "patriarchal culture," and "men involvement". After filtering, 17 relevant articles were selected based on CEBM study quality. The study included qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-method research on male participation in ANC at both community and facility levels. Only studies published in English within the specified timeframe were included, while duplicates, non-English articles, and studies outside the rural context were excluded. Among the selected studies, eight were quantitative, six qualitative, and three employed mixed methods. Findings reveal that education, social norms, economic factors, and policies significantly influence husbands' involvement in ANC, aligning with previous research. However, this review highlights key differences, particularly in the impact of social changes that promote greater male participation and the role of concrete policies in enhancing their access to ANC. To improve husband involvement, targeted interventions are necessary, including couple-based educational programs, enhanced accessibility and affordability of health services, and shifts in community attitudes toward men's roles during pregnancy. Addressing these factors is essential for improving maternal health outcomes in rural settings.

Abstract

In Indonesia, breast cancer has the highest incidence among all cancer types. The high prevalence of breast cancer cases in adult women. Breast Self-Examination (BSE) is a crucial method for early breast cancer detection. This research aimed to determine the factors that influence the intention of young women aged 15-20 years to carry out BSE behavior in the Penumping Surakarta Health Center Work Area. This research used a cross-sectional approach. The research was carried out in March – April 2024. The sampling technique used quota sampling on 140 young women aged 15-20. Data analysis used the Chi-square test and multiple logistic regression test. The research results showed that there was a relationship between attitude (p-value = 0.001), subjective norms (p-value = 0.001), and perceived behavioral control (p-value = 0.002) to carry out BSE behavior. Attitude was a higher predictor factor in young women's intention to do BSE (p-value = 0.022; OR = 6.1; 95% CI (1.3-28.9). Attitude and perceived behavioral control significantly influence young women’s intention to engage in BSE. Young women with a positive attitude towards BSE are 6.1 times more likely to perform BSE compared to young women who have a negative attitude. We recommend health workers at the Penumping Community Health Center implement health promotion to enhance positive attitudes toward BSE among young women.

Abstract

Inadequate waste management in healthcare facilities can negatively impact healthcare workers, patients, and the environment. As a daily healthcare service unit, Talang Ratu Public Health Center is required to manage medical waste properly. This study aims to analyze the solid medical waste management process at Talang Ratu Public Health Center. This descriptive qualitative study was conducted at Talang Ratu Public Health Center, Palembang City, from from november to december in 2022 approach to explore the management practices, facilities, and infrastructure involved in handling solid medical waste. Eight informants were selected through purposive sampling, consisting of two sanitarians/health workers, one cleaning staff, and five heads of outpatient departments. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, and analyzed using triangulation techniques. Sources of medical waste include the Maternal and Child Health (MCH) unit, pharmacy, laboratory, and dental clinic. Overall, the waste management process has been implemented adequately in accordance with the Ministry of Environment and Forestry Regulation No. 6 of 2021. Waste is segregated using color-coded containers and transported after service hours by staff wearing full Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). However, transportation is still conducted manually due to the lack of dedicated trolleys. Health risks also arise because temporary waste storage last between two weeks and one month without proper temperature control. The study recommends improving transportation and storage systems to enhance the safety and efficiency of solid medical waste management.

Abstract

Breast cancer is the leading cause of death among women-related diseases. A delay in diagnosis and treatment contributes to the high fatality rate from breast cancer. Many women remain unaware of BSE (Breast Self-Examination) as an early detection method for breast cancer. Health promotion is essential to increase awareness and knowledge about early detection efforts. Two commonly used health promotion methods are lectures and Small Group Discussions (SGD). This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of these methods in improving adolescents' understanding of BSE. A pre-experimental study design (intact group comparison) with a two-group pre-test and post-test approach was conducted. A total of 188 participants were included in the study. Data were collected using a self-developed questionnaire designed to assess adolescents' knowledge of BSE. The Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test was used to analyze pre-test and post-test results. The findings revealed a significant difference in the effectiveness of health promotion between the lecture method and the SGD method in enhancing BSE knowledge among adolescents, with a p-value of 0.002. Both methods improved BSE knowledge, but the lecture method was more effective.

Abstract

Pneumonia is a major cause of mortality among children under five, especially in developing countries like Indonesia. In 2023, West Java recorded over 18,000 cases, making it one of the provinces with the highest burden. This study analyzes the spatial distribution of pneumonia in children under five across 27 districts/cities in West Java and examines its association with individual and environmental determinants. Data were obtained from the 2023 Indonesia Health Survey (Survei Kesehatan Indonesia or SKI), Statistics Indonesia (Badan Pusat Statistik or BPS), and the West Java Health Office. Descriptive analysis (mean, median, standard deviation) was conducted using SPSS, and geospatial mapping was performed using QGIS. The results revealed notable spatial clusters of pneumonia incidence among children under five in several districts. High-High clusters, indicating areas with high pneumonia rates surrounded by similarly high-risk districts, were prominently observed in regions with elevated prevalence of household tobacco smoking and use of wood fuel for cooking, such as Bogor, Sukabumi, Cianjur, and Garut. Conversely, Low-Low clusters, representing low pneumonia incidence surrounded by similarly low-risk districts, were identified in areas with better population density management and lower tobacco exposure, such as Majalengka, Cirebon, and Kuningan. Significant gaps in basic immunization coverage and exclusive breastfeeding practices were also spatially evident. Districts like Karawang and Purwakarta demonstrated Low-Low clusters for basic immunization, highlighting regional disparities potentially due to limited healthcare accessibility. Likewise, Majalengka and Indramayu showed Low-Low clusters for exclusive breastfeeding practices, signaling inadequate maternal and community support. This spatial epidemiological analysis highlights critical hotspots and underscores the importance of geographically targeted health policies, including intensified immunization campaigns, promotion of exclusive breastfeeding, and tobacco control initiatives, to effectively reduce pneumonia risks among vulnerable children in West Java.

Abstract

Lack of household sanitation is a pressing problem in the household sanitation of many rural communities in Indonesia, and Ibul besar village is not an exception. Although the government has implemented different programs to encourage people to improve their sanitation, the latrine ownership among the residents is low. An objective of this study was to identify the important factors that determined the ownership of latrines at the household level in Ibul Besar Village, Pemulutan District, and Ogan Ilir Regency. It was a quantitative cross-sectional study conducted on 124 respondents who were selected using purposive means through structured interviews and questionnaires. Chi-square was used to analyze data. The results showed that clean water source, household income, and housing density were significantly associated with latrine ownership. Conversely, education level, access to health information, knowledge, and attitude were not significantly related. Enhancing access to clean water and assisting the low-income households with the help of financial or land-use policy measures are crucial measures to augment the household ownership of latrines in rural societies.
