Abstract

This research was aimed to identify the roles of Tuha Peut in healthcare service for pregnant women. This study was also examined the obstacles of Tuha Peut in implementing the roles and identified the efforts taken to strengthen the roles. This research employed quantitative and qualitative approaches. The quantitative approach using a questionnaire to collect data was used to provide indicators for maternal healthcare and the knowledge of Tuha Peut towards maternal health care. Meanwhile, the qualitative approach using open-ended interview guide and focus group discussion (FGD) was employed to explore the constraints and efforts in improving maternal healthcare. The research location was in Nagan Raya, Aceh Province. A total of 48 respondents was recruited in this study. The result shows there is a relevance between the health care achievement and TuhaPeut knowledge as the legislative assembly in decision making regarding the village fund (p 0.001). Concerning the decision-making, most Tuha Peut were not involved in decision-making related to the health sector. Some of them were only passively involved, and some could not provide considerations for maternal healthcare. Unfortunately, efforts to maximize their roles in improving maternal healthcare had not been carried out. It is recommended that TuhaPeut can be more involved in every planning process of maternal healthcare service, such as arranging Qanun as the jurisdictional basis. Tuha Peut’s roles can be maximized to increase the health care for pregnant mothers.

Abstract

Stunting can be caused by many factors, including how a mother feeds her child. How much a family eats and how secure their food supply affects the number of short toddlers. This study examines feeding behavior, family food security, and stunting in Semarang. Quantitative observational analytic case-control study of 83,397 stunting-risk families. This study included 100 Semarang families at risk of stunting, with 50 cases (cases) and 50 controls (controls). This study used univariate and bivariate analysis. The results of the bivariate analysis showed that there was a relationship between feeding behavior and the incidence of stunting in Semarang City (p value = 0.002, OR = 4.030, 95% CI 1.712–9.488). Children who are cared for with inappropriate feeding behavior have a significantly greater risk of experiencing stunting compared to children who are cared for with appropriate feeding behavior. In addition, the relationship between family food security and the incidence of stunting in the city of Semarang was also confirmed to be statistically significant (p value = 0.000, OR = 6.833, 95% CI 2.732-17.093). Children who are cared for in food-insecure families are six times more at risk of experiencing stunting compared to children who are cared for in food-secure families. Based on the research data, it can be concluded that there is a relationship between feeding behavior and family food security and the incidence of stunting in the city of Semarang.

Abstract

Indonesia reached the highest number of deaths caused by COVID-19 in children under five years, and the cases continued to rise to 10.6% in February 2022. Vaccination is an effective way to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic. The risk of its infection in children under five years has been underestimated, and parent’s hesitancy still becomes an obstacle. This study aimed to identify factors associated with willingness to receive COVID-19 vaccination for children under five years among parents based on the Health Belief Model. A cross-sectional study was held in Jakarta from August 1st – 20, 2022. A total of 173 parents with children under five years (0-59 months) were taken using the consecutive sampling method, and data were taken with self-reported online and printed questionnaires. Chi-square bivariate and binary logistic regression multivariate analysis were used to determine the association. Adjusted odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were presented, and statistical significance was set at p 0.05. Parent’s willingness level to get COVID-19 vaccination for their children was 68.8%. The multivariate analysis revealed that perceived benefit (p=0.045; OR=2.784; 95%CI=1.023-7.579) and cues to action (p0.001; OR= 23.144; 95%CI= 8.577-62.453) were predictors of parent’s willingness to receive COVID-19 vaccine for their children.

Abstract

The dynamics of multi-sectoral collaborations between HIV/AIDS-supporting non-governmental organizations and public health institutions can significantly affect how programs are implemented, especially during emergencies like the once-in-100-year COVID-19 pandemic. These collaboration dynamics were explored in a South African context in the Western Cape province during COVID-19. Interviews and a focus group discussion were conducted with participants (n=6) from two small-scale HIV/AIDS-supporting NGOs and one public health institution. Challenges of multi-sectoral collaboration identified included inadequate engagement opportunities, limited opportunities to contribute during engagements, and being forced to innovate to survive. Enablers of multi-sectoral collaboration, such as communication, leadership, coordination of responsibilities, and trust and transparency, were found to be crucial for effective and strong working relationships during times of unparalleled disaster. New insights are offered on how enablers of collaboration that apply during normal circumstances should be thought of during times of crisis, and how these can be adapted and augmented to help HIV/AIDS collaborative partnerships survive future potentially disastrous situations like climate change.

Abstract

 Pesticides are often used in oil palm plantations to prevent disturbing animals and plants. Pesticide sprayers are vulnerable to pesticide exposure which can reduce cholinesterase levels is an indicator of pesticide poisoning. Long-term pesticide exposure and excessive doses cause the production of free radicals in the body, thereby increasing inflammatory markers, one of which is total IgE. This study aimed to describe cholinesterase and total IgE levels in oil palm farmers. This study used the quantitative-descriptive research method. The sampling was conducted at PT. X in Sanggau District of West Kalimantan Province. Examining cholinesterase levels used the Architec c-8000 device with the DGKC butyrylthiocholine 37°C method, while total IgE used the immunochemmiluminescent method with the Immulite 2000 device. The examination was carried out at the Prodia National Reference Lab in Jakarta. Based on the cholinesterase measurement results taken from 133 workers who underwent medical check-ups, 20 data were taken that were close to the threshold value less than normal to examine total IgE levels. The results obtained from the overview of cholinesterase levels showed that 20 pesticide sprayers (100%) had normal cholinesterase levels, and four (20%) had normal total IgE levels. Pesticide exposure will decrease cholinesterase levels, and increase IgE levels.

Abstract

Chemical exposure known as chemical hazards and toxic substances (CHTS), which occur through inhalation, ingestion, and skin contact, causes serious illness, irritation, corrosion, injury, and even death. The chemicals analyzed are limited to the reagents used in the mineral ore production process, in addition to dermal exposure. Data on hazard identification and exposure evaluation were collected. The utilization of CHTS will continue to increase in the coming years, thereby leading to health impacts on workers. Global data released by ILO showed a 270 million (62.8%) and 160 million (37.2%) rise in work accidents and illnesses, culminating in 430 million per year. Data on the number of workers who received benefits from the Work Accident Insurance program of the National Social Security Agency for Employment (known as BPJSTK), showed that 210,789 people (4,007 fatal) 221,740 people (3,410 fatal), and 234,370 people (6,552 fatal) experienced work-related accidents and illnesses in Indonesia. Therefore, this qualitative study aims to examine and analyze the health risks of mining workers exposed to CHTS through inhalation- using the observation method. The Chemical Health Risk Assessment (CHRA) method issued by the Malaysian Department of Safety and Health in 2018 was used to assess the inhalation exposure rate. The analyzed chemicals were limited to reagents used in production with data collected through the semi-quantitative method. The results showed that the inhalation exposure risk level is categorized as moderate and capable of causing health defects related to acute toxicity and specific target organ toxicity-single exposure (STOT-SE). Furthermore, 4 (four) out of 6 (six) reagents were identified as having significant inhalation exposure risk, hence, controls related to Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) in the mineral ore processing process must be increased.
