Abstract

A work accident is an accidental event in the employment relationship, including diseases of the working relationship, the accident that happened on the way go to work, and coming home in the usual way. Work accidents can be experienced by sugar farmers. In Banyumas Regency, there are about 26.580 Sugar farmers. Based on Kesra Setda Banyumas Regency, from 2017 to November 2019 there were 323 cases of sugar farmers accidents, with 236 disabilities and 87 deaths. The purpose is to analyze the risk factors of work accidents consisting of behavioral and environmental factors. The method is an analytical survey with a cross-sectional approach. The sample was 200 people in Cilongok Districts. Data analysis includes univariate, bivariate, and multivariate. The results show that behavioral factors significantly associated with work accidents are breakfast status (p = 0,010) and unhealthy conditions (p = 0,002). Environmental factors significant to work accidents are past medical history (p = 0.000) and protein adequacy (p = 0,000). Recommendations for this research are socialization about the importance of breakfast and paying attention to the body condition before climbing, also training energy consumption diet of protein corresponding to the workload.

Abstract

Indonesia has the highest rate of early marriage in the world, according to a UNICEF study, placing 15th out of 63 countries. Child marriage will make it much harder for Indonesia to obtain a high human development index and meet sustainable development goals. To determine whether Communication, Information, and Education (CIE) regarding maturing age at marriage through the Interprofessional Education (IPE) approach affected the students' self-awareness. An experimental study with one group pre-test and post-test design was conducted on 121 participants. They were selected using random sampling from 16-30th August 2021 in Hidayatul Mubtadiat Islamic boarding school, Puri sub-district, Mojokerto district, East Java province, Indonesia. The intervention group attended a workshop led by a religious leader, psychologist, and maternity nursing lecturer, completed by a follow-up program. The data was collected using the self-awareness questionnaire modified from the Situational Self-Awareness Scale (SSAS). IBM SPSS (v.28) was used to analyze the data, including statistical tests such as descriptive statistics and a paired t-test for comparing the mean scores. A 5% level of significance was considered. After interventions, there was a significant self-awareness score improvement (p-value 0.000 and T value = -15.9). The participants had self-awareness in the good category of 60.3 %. Up from 17.4 % before the intervention with a change in mean + standard deviation (SD) pre-post 57.8 + 7.2 to 66.2 + 7.0. Meanwhile, the number of participants who had less self-awareness before the intervention (42.1%) decreased to 5% after the intervention. The study's findings verified the effectiveness of the CIE strategy to enhance self-awareness among adolescent girls using the IPE method. The supply of CIE on the maturity of marriage age with an interprofessional education approach is the proper step to raise adolescents' self-awareness in the right decision-making process. So that they can avoid early marriage deliberately and independently.

Abstract

The Poor physical environment is the main cause of acute respiratory infections that result in death in school children aged 5 to 14 years due to exposure to PM2.5 at school. The improvement of the school’s physical environment from high PM2.5 pollution is to involve the school community in planting Sansevieria Trifasciata as a solution to reducing PM2.5 pollution. This study aims to analyze the significance of differences in the physical environmental conditions of the Ciranjang 1 State Elementary School, Cianjur Regency, on the level of respiratory susceptibility of students seen from PM2.5 levels before and after the placement of Sansevieria Trifasciata. The study used 2 test classes and 1 control class. The study duration was 24 hours with two measurements, namely at the pretest and posttest. Data analysis used the Ancova one-way test followed by the Post-Hock test. The placement of 8 pots of Sansevieria Trifasciata was able to absorb PM2.5 compared to 6 pots of Sansevieria trifasciata. There is an effective and significant absorption of PM2.5 pollutants by placing 8 pots of Sansevieria trifasciata plants in a 49m2 classroom, which is 29µgr/m3 on the respiratory vulnerability level of Ciranjang 1 State Elementary School students, Cianjur Regency.

Abstract

Isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) reflects atherosclerosis. Studies reported hypertension prevalence among diabetes mellitus (DM); however, limited studies provided community prevalence. Present study aimed to explore ISH prevalence among DM in Indonesia. This study obtained data from the 2018 Indonesian basic health survey. The DM category was determined by fasting plasma glucose (PG) level ≥126 mg/dL or 2-hours postprandial and random PG level ≥200 mg/dL or previously diagnosed by a doctor. ISH is categorized if systolic blood pressure is≥140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure is 90 mmHg. This study also explored the subject's determinants, i.e., compliance, demography, and lipid profile. A Chi-square and Binary logistic regression were used to determine the association. The study included 3,911 DM individuals and disclosed the prevalence of ISH 17.5%. ≥65 years old (OR=13.61 95%CI: 3.297-19.365) and 45-64 years old OR=4.59 95%CI: 3.297-6.383)), high HDL-cholesterol (OR=0.77; 95%CI: 0.626-0.936), and longer DM duration (OR=2.89; 95%CI: 2.405-3.474), all together were related to the ISH.  Subjects with the oldest age category, i.e., ≥65 years old, had the highest OR. Older DM individuals with low HDL-C and longer DM duration were related to the ISH, suggesting lipid profile treatments, mainly the HDL-C, is a pivotal effort to delay ISH.

Abstract

Children are very susceptible to TB infection. One of the causes of TB in children is nutritional status. Poor one causes a weak immune system, making contracting tuberculosis easier. In addition, living conditions can spread to children due to contact with active pulmonary TB in one household. This study aims to determine the relationship between nutritional status and living conditions with TB incidence in children. This case-control study involved 76 samples consisting of 38 cases and 38 controls. Research subjects were taken using the purposive sampling method. The subjects were children aged 0-18 years diagnosed with TB based on anamnesis, physical examination, tuberculin skin test, and chest X-ray. This study was conducted at Bhakti Medicare Sukabumi Hospital from July to December 2019. The results of the Chi-square test found that there was a relationship between nutritional status (p=0.023), ventilation area (p=0.043), and humidity (p=0.001). There is no relationship between age (p=0.639), gender (0.490), parental education (p=0.803), lighting (p=0.200), temperature (0.260), density (p=1.000), and type of floor (p=0.240).

Abstract

Indonesia is an agricultural country with dry-milled grain production reaching 55.6 million tons in 2022. Besides producing an abundance of rice, milled dry rice also results in waste in the form of rice husks. The handling of rice husk waste is mostly by burning. The smoke from burning is toxic, so it has a poor impact on environmental health. This study is regarding the effect of improper management of rice husks on environmental health, the utilization of rice husks in biogas energy, and its potential in Indonesia. Air quality measurement in areas burning rice husks on the parameters SO2, CO, NO2, and PM10 regarding the method of the Indonesian National Standard. Then anaerobic laboratory-scale research to convert rice husk into biogas. Chemical pretreatment was carried out with 3% NaOH and the C/N ratio determined was 25. Condition variations were determined for L-AD with 7% TS and SS-AD with 17% TS. We found that burning rice husks harm on environmental health. It is indicated by the SO2 and PM10 parameters exceeding the quality standards, namely 167 and 132 µg/m3.The NO2 parameter almost reached the quality standard, namely 178 µg/m3. Generated rice husk can be converted into renewable energy in biogas with good productivity in SS-AD conditions, with biogas production reaching 75.2 mL.gTS-1. Biogas potential from rice husks reached 1.5 million liters. It can support energy security for Indonesia.

Abstract

Low back pain (LBP) is one of the musculoskeletal disorders as a result of incorrect ergonomics. The impact caused by low back pain is bad posture, stiffness, pinched nerve, and muscle weakness. This study aims to determine the relationship between ages, years of service, length of sitting, work posture, and the chair’s ergonomics with complaints of low back pain in tailors at Pasar Petisah, Kota Medan, with 35 workers based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The research tools are interviews, observations, and filling out questionnaires. This sampling technique is used purposive sampling methods. Data were analyzed using the STATCAL application with a 5% chi-square test. Based on the result, we concluded that there is a long relationship between ages (p=0,02), years of service (p=0,04), length of sitting (p=0,01), and work posture (p=0,03) with the occurrence of low back pain tailors. Tailors in the Petisah Market in Medan City are at risk for complaints of low back pain based on age, long years of service, a risky length of sitting, and a risky work posture. If the workers ignore low back pain, the impact is the emergence of serious problems such as stiffness in the spine, fractures, pinched nerves, and can even cause death.

Abstract

Indonesia is a dengue-endemic country with cases of death every year, including East Kalimantan. One house one jumantik/larva monitor (G1R1J), has been carried out in Samarinda, East Kalimantan but has never been evaluated and implemented. This study aims to determine the communities’ knowledge, attitudes, and actions regarding G1R1J, as well as to see the effect of mentoring by cadres. This research is a quasi-experimental research with a control design. The research activities took time from March - November 2019. Measurements were taken before and after treatment by conducting a pre-test and post-test in Sidodadi Village as an intervention and Dadimulia as a control. The sample size in this study was 300 respondents with the criteria of the occupants of the house/building appointed/person in charge of implementing G1R1J. The instrument used is a questionnaire. T-test statistics are used to determine differences in the control and treatment areas, as well as before and after the intervention. The results showed an increase in knowledge, attitudes, and actions regarding the understanding, symptoms, and causes of dengue fever, as well as about one house one jumantik/larva monitor (G1R1J) after assisting cadres when compared to the control area. There was a statistical difference between the treated areas when compared to the good control areas. Optimum utilization of cadres should be an alternative to reduce the incidence of DHF in the community.
