Abstract

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (KNF) is a malignant cancer that originates from the nasopharyngeal epithelium and is one of the leading causes of cancer death in Indonesia. This disease is related to various environmental and genetic risk factors such as salted fish consumption, smoking habits, exposure to wood burning smoke, alcohol consumption, and genetic factors. Exposure to wood burning smoke contains carcinogenic compounds that can cause chronic irritation and DNA mutations in nasopharyngeal epithelial cells. This study aims to determine the relationship between salted fish consumption patterns, smoking habits, exposure to wood burning smoke, alcohol consumption, and genetic factors with the incidence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma at RSPAL dr. Ramelan Surabaya for the period March 2020 to March 2025. Cross-sectional research was carried out at RSPAL dr. Ramelan Surabaya. A total of 49 consisting of 36 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma and 13 non-nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients were selected by total sampling. The dependent variable is nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Independent variables were salted fish consumption patterns, exposure to wood burning smoke, smoking habits, alcohol consumption and genetics. Data was collected using questionnaires that had been tested for validity and reliability, and medical records. The data was analyzed by Chi-square test. There was a significant association between exposure to wood burning smoke and the incidence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (p = 0.036). Meanwhile, salted fish consumption patterns (p = 0.165), smoking habits (p = 0.586), alcohol consumption (p = 0.288), and genetic factors (p = 0.609) showed no meaningful relationship. This shows that exposure to wood burning smoke is the most influential environmental factor on the incidence of KNF at the research site. There was a significant association between exposure to wood burning smoke and the incidence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, while salted fish consumption patterns, smoking habits, alcohol consumption, and genetic factors did not show a significant relationship.

Abstract

Malaria remains a major public health problem in mining areas due to environmental conditions that favor mosquito breeding and sustained human–vector contact. Mining workers are particularly vulnerable because of prolonged exposure to high-risk environments. This study aimed to analyze the factors associated with malaria incidence and the presence of vector breeding sites among mining workers in Hulawa Village, Buntulia Subdistrict, Pohuwato Regency. This observational analytic study employed a cross-sectional design involving 125 mining workers. Data were collected through structured interviews using a standardized questionnaire and environmental observations. The questionnaire was developed based on previous empirical studies and underwent validity and reliability testing prior to data collection; item validity was assessed using item–total correlation analysis, while internal consistency was confirmed with Cronbach’s alpha coefficients ≥0.70. Malaria incidence was determined using a Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT). The independent variables included knowledge, nighttime outdoor activities, history of malaria, risk perception, self-efficacy, length of residence, presence of potential breeding sites, and presence of malaria vectors. Bivariate associations were examined using the chi-square test, and multivariate analysis was conducted using logistic regression. The results showed that several factors were significantly associated with malaria incidence. Knowledge (p = 0.000; OR = 0.018) and history of malaria (p = 0.014; OR = 0.068) acted as protective factors, whereas length of residence in the mining area (p = 0.001; OR = 31.179) and the presence of malaria vectors (p = 0.020; OR = 55.195) significantly increased the risk of malaria. In contrast, self-efficacy and the presence of breeding sites were not significantly associated with malaria incidence. The most dominant factor influencing malaria incidence was the presence of malaria vectors. Malaria incidence among mining workers in Hulawa Village is influenced by a combination of individual and environmental factors, with vector presence and prolonged exposure in mining areas playing a dominant role. These findings highlight the critical importance of prioritizing vector control and environmental management in mining areas as key strategies to reduce malaria incidence.

Abstract

Breast cancer is a malignancy caused by the abnormal growth and spread of cells. It develops within the breast lobules, ducts, adipose tissue, or connective tissue. Globally, this disease ranks as the second leading cause of death. Objective: This study aims to analyze the ability of women of reproductive age to recognize breast cancer risk factors. A descriptive research design was employed to identify the level of risk factor recognition among women of reproductive age in the working area of Puskesmas PB 2 Selayang. The study population comprised all women of reproductive age aged 15-49 years. A total of 100 respondents were selected using proportional random sampling, ensuring that the number of subjects drawn from each area was proportional to the population size of that area. Data were collected from April to July 2025 using a structured questionnaire administered through Google Forms, covering demographic characteristics and knowledge of breast cancer risk factors. Data collection was conducted through home visits assisted by trained enumerators. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis and presented in frequency and percentage distributions. The results indicated that the risk factors most recognized by respondents were the definition of breast cancer (74.1%), alcohol consumption habits (67%), smoking habits (71.6%), high-sugar and preservative-laden foods (75%), and breast self-examination (75%). Conversely, unrecognized risk factors included post-menopausal obesity (16.5%), early menarche (25.6%), genetic factors (56%), reproductive factors (39.4%), nulliparity (never having given birth) (52.8%), and late menopause (>50 years) (34.9%). These results suggest that a significant number of respondents lack understanding of hormonal and reproductive factors, highlighting the need for targeted education on these issues.

Abstract

Hypertension remains a global non-communicable disease problem and is a major risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Regular blood donation has been suggested as one strategy that may help reduce blood pressure. The Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) Blood Donor Unit in Banda Aceh City is one of the largest blood donation centers in Aceh Province, serving approximately 2,500 donors per month. This study aimed to determine the association between lifestyle, metabolic, and donation-related risk factors and the incidence of hypertension among blood donors at the PMI Blood Donor Unit in Banda Aceh City. This study employed a quantitative approach with a case–control design. Data were collected from 156 blood donors aged over 41 years who visited the PMI Blood Donor Unit in Banda Aceh City during January 12–17, 2024, consisting of 52 hypertensive donors (cases) and 104 non-hypertensive donors (controls). Participants were selected using accidental sampling. Data were obtained through donor register records and structured interviews, which included demographic characteristics, lifestyle factors, medical history, and donation frequency. Data analysis was performed using univariate analysis to describe respondent characteristics, bivariate analysis using logistic regression to assess associations between risk factors and hypertension, and multivariate logistic regression to identify the most dominant factors associated with hypertension. The results showed that employment status (OR 0.32; 95% CI; p = 0.013), poor diet (OR 11.32; 95% CI; p < 0.001), smoking status (OR 2.31; 95% CI; p = 0.018), moderate physical activity (OR 0.12; 95% CI; p < 0.001), diabetes mellitus (OR 4.11; 95% CI; p = 0.001), hypercholesterolemia (OR 4.11; 95% CI; p < 0.001), donation frequency (OR 0.71; 95% CI; p = 0.009), and body mass index (OR 1.22; 95% CI; p < 0.001) were significantly associated with the incidence of hypertension among blood donors at the PMI Blood Donor Unit in Banda Aceh City.

Abstract

Language development is a fundamental aspect of early childhood's golden period, influenced by environmental factors, namely parenting patterns and biological foundations through nutritional intake. This literature review aims to analyze the relationship between parenting patterns and nutritional intake and children's language development. The data used are secondary data in the form of articles from PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar. Researchers used 21 national and international research articles published between 2020 and 2025. The inclusion criteria for this study were: 1) primary research articles published between 2020 and 2025; 2) article topics aligned with the research objectives; and 3) articles from accredited national full access journals and reputable international journals. The synthesis of results indicates that parenting patterns that provide positive verbal stimulation and interaction, as well as regulating gadget use, can improve children's receptive and expressive language skills. Conversely, excessive gadget use without parental supervision can increase the risk of language delay. From a nutritional perspective, stunting and micronutrient deficiencies (especially iron and zinc) contribute to impaired cognitive function and attention, which impact children's language acquisition. In conclusion, children's language development is influenced by a combination of parenting patterns and nutritional intake, with good parenting patterns and balanced nutritional intake being key components in supporting optimal language development.

Abstract

Dysmenorrhoea is a reproductive health problem commonly experienced by adolescent girls and women of reproductive age, with a high prevalence and significant impact on daily activities, emotional well-being, and quality of life. Physical exercise, particularly abdominal stretching exercises, has the potential to be a non-pharmacological intervention in attenuating the pain scale of dysmenorrhea through increased comfort and muscle relaxation. This study was conducted to determine the effect of abdominal stretching exercises on attenuating the pain scale of dysmenorrhea at SMA Negeri 2 Sukoharjo. This study used a quantitative method with a one-group pretest–posttest quasi-experimental design. The study was conducted in September 2025 on 87 female students in grade XI at SMA N 2 Sukoharjo who were selected using purposive sampling according to the inclusion criteria. The intervention given was abdominal stretching exercises. The severity level of dysmenorrhea pain was assessed pre- and post-intervention employing the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Data analysis included univariate and bivariate analyses. Normality was tested using Kolmogorov–Smirnov and showed that the data were not normally distributed, so bivariate analysis used the Wilcoxon signed rank test with a confidence level of 95% and α = 0.05. The results showed that the majority of respondents were 16 years old with a dominant age of menarche of 12 years and had a normal menstrual cycle and duration. Before the intervention, most respondents experienced moderate dysmenorrhea pain (scale 5). After being given abdominal stretching exercises, there was a decrease in the intensity of dysmenorrhea pain, with the majority of respondents experiencing low pain (scale 2). Bivariate analysis using the Wilcoxon signed rank test showed a significant difference between the pain scale before and after the intervention (p ≤ 0.05), indicating that abdominal stretching exercises are effective in reducing the scale of dysmenorrhea pain. This study shows that abdominal stretching exercises are effective in reducing the pain scale of dysmenorrhoea in adolescent girls.

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remained a public health problem in Bontang City. From January to December 2023, a total of 457 DHF cases were reported among 188,101 residents, with an incidence rate of 242.95 per 100,000 population and two deaths (Case Fatality Rate = 0.44%). This study aimed to identify factors associated with the occurrence of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever in the working area of Bontang Barat Public Health Center. An analytic observational study with a retrospective case control design was conducted. The study population consisted of all DHF cases reported from January to December 2023, totaling 128 cases. Using simple random sampling, 192 respondents were selected, comprising 96 cases and 96 controls. Cases were patients with dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) confirmed by healthcare professionals, while the control group consisted of neighbors of the cases who agreed to participate and were matched by sex and residential area (±100 m). Data were collected from DHF surveillance records, interviews, observations, and measurements of housing density. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test. The results showed a significant association between 3M Plus practices, the presence of mosquito larvae (p < 0.001), and the frequency of cleaning water storage containers (p = 0.001) with the occurrence of DHF. In contrast, housing density (p = 0.721) and the habit of hanging worn clothes (p = 0.771) were not associated with DHF incidence. Conclusion the occurrence of DHF was mainly influenced by behavioral and environmental factors therefore, strengthening community based 3M Plus prevention practices was identified as a key strategy for DHF control.

Abstract

Suicide is the third leading cause of death in the 15-29 age group. Adolescents with dynamic psychosocial development are highly vulnerable to pressures that can trigger hopelessness and suicidal ideation. Hopelessness is a pessimistic condition about the future, which is related to the emergence of thoughts of ending one's life. This study aims to analyze the relationship between hopelessness and suicidal ideation in adolescents. This quantitative correlational study involved 98 adolescents from SMA Negeri 2 Sukoharjo who were selected through simple random sampling. Data were collected using the Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS) and Revised–Suicide Ideation Scale (R-SIS) questionnaires, each of which showed high to very high reliability (BHS α = 0.92; R-SIS α = 0.943) and adequate item and construct validity, then analyzed univariately and bivariately using the Spearman correlation test. Results: Most respondents experienced low hopelessness (52%) and low suicidal ideation (78.6%). The Spearman correlation test results showed a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.227 and a p-value of 0.024 (p<0.05).  There is a significant but weak positive relationship between hopelessness and suicidal ideation in adolescents. The higher the level of hopelessness, the higher the likelihood of suicidal ideation.

Abstract

Nurse job satisfaction is an important determinant of workforce stability, quality of care, and organizational performance. Teaching hospitals present a distinctive work environment due to their dual role in the delivery of healthcare services and clinical education, which may influence nurses perceptions of satisfaction differntly. This study aimed to explore nurses job satisfaction in a teaching hospital and to examine motivational and hygiene related factors associated with job satisfaction based on Herzberg’s two factor theory. A quantitaive descriptive study was conducted among 69 nurses at a teaching hospital in Pontianak City, Indonesia. Participants were recruited using concecutive sampling. Data were collecting using an online questionnair based on Herzberg’s motivation hygiene framework. Descriptive statistik and Spearman correlation anayses were performed. Most nurses reported being satisfied with their job. Hygiene-related factors, particularly the alignment of pay and incentives with workload and the timeliness of payment, showed the strongest relationship with job satisfaction. Motivational factors, including career development and supervisor evaluation showed a moderate relationship. Nurses’ job satisfaction in the teaching hospital setting is primarily associated with compensation-related factors, followed by career development and supervisory support. This study contributes empirical evidence on the relevance of Herzberg’s two-factor theory in understanding nurse job satisfaction within the teaching hospital context.
