Abstract

Emotional eating behavior and increased food intake during emotional conditions are some factors that can contribute to obesity in pregnant women. This study examined the relationship between emotional eating behavior with energy consumption and nutritional status of pregnant women. This study was conducted from January to March 2024 and used an analytical observational method with a cross-sectional study. The subjects were 59 pregnant women in the second and third trimesters at Kedungkandang Community Health Center, Malang, Indonesia. Emotional eating, energy consumption, and nutritional status was tested with correlation rank spearman test. In this study, 45.7% of respondents were high emotional eaters, 40.7% had sufficient energy intake, and 72.9% had a normal nutritional status. Spearman correlation test showed p0.05 for energy consumption (p=0.008) and p0.05 for nutritional status (p=0.548). We concluded that emotional eating behavior has a significant relationship with energy consumption but has no relationship with nutritional status. It is important to consider the larger context in which emotional eating behaviors take place to comprehend nutritional status during pregnancy. Therefore, future studies should examine other different populations or areas.

Abstract

Zimbabwe envisions becoming a malaria-free country. However, a malaria resurgence has been reported in some of the elimination districts. This cohort study, guided by the Health Belief Model, aimed to examine risk factors associated with malaria severity in Lupane districts. Using proportionate stratified sampling, the study recruited 1207 individuals, comprising 1056 individuals who acquired malaria locally and 151 individuals who acquired malaria outside Lupane as captured in the DHIS2 electronic malaria-tracker database. The study used IBM SPSS 29.0.2.0(20)] for data analysis and odds ratios (ORs) were used to estimate relative risk (RR; 95% C.I; p0.05). The study revealed relative risk for individuals who had not traveled 29.7 (8.74; 100.0), no Long-Lasting Insecticidal Nets 12.3 (7.02; 21.4), possessed LLINs but not used 7.83 (4.29; 14.3), hosted visitors 6.19 (4.16; 9.22), lived in rural residence 1.94 (1.35; 2.79), slept outdoors during the night 1.93 (1.36; 2.74), and adults 0.22(0.13; 0.36) compared to the corresponding reference groups. As the country continues to fight against malaria, it is critical to address perceived risk factors that can reintroduce the disease and sustain the gains made in malaria elimination districts.

Abstract

The prevalence of Refractive Error (RE) in school children tends to increase. The study aims to analyze the prevalence and determinants of RE in elementary school children. The research was carried out in 2022, using a cross-sectional design. The research population is 110 students in grades V and VI of Krapyak State Elementary School, Semarang City. A total of 80 students were selected as samples with purposive sampling techniques. Data collection was carried out by interview techniques using questionnaires. RE is measured by Snellen Chart examination and pinhole lens. The multiple logistic regression multivariate test was used for risk factor analysis. The bivariate analysis resulted in 6 variables eligible for inclusion in the multivariate analysis model. The results of the multivariate analysis showed that there were 2 risk factors for RE, namely: smartphone use ≥ 2 hours continuously per day (OR = 14.622 95% CI 1.124 - 190.181) and parental history (OR = 11.194, 95% CI 1.827 -65.567). The probability of RE if a student has both risk factors is 71%. The use of smartphones ≥ 2 hours continuously per day and the presence of parental history of RE are risk factors for RE events in elementary school students.

Abstract

Proper nourishment is vital for persons who participate in physical activity and require increased amounts of important nutrients. Adolescents should give priority to this matter, as their developing bodies require greater nutritional requirements to support their growth and physical activity. An investigation carried out on adolescent athletes in Indonesia revealed that sports schools and athlete training facilities frequently encounter insufficient food consumption, which may have an impact on athlete performance and long-term well-being. The study aimed to examine the nutritional factors that influence body fat in young athletes who are enrolled in sports schools in Central Java, Indonesia. The study was conducted with the participation of 110 young athletes. The data for this study were analyzed using Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression. The result shows a relationship between gender, energy intake, protein intake, physical activity, and body fat percentage, as well as a correlation between age and BMI for age. The result of the multivariate analysis suggests that gender had the most effect on body fat percentage (r=0.77; p-value=0.0001). Young athletes should receive comprehensive education and monitoring from certified experts to ensure eating and exercise habits that enhance performance and promote long-term health.

Abstract

The decrease in the incidence of malaria has only reached 66.67%, from the target of 90% in 2030; Anopheles spp mosquitoes are zoophilic, So mosquitoes are more numerous in cattle sheds. The research is intended to change vector control policies by considering livestock sheds to accelerate malaria elimination. This study was a Pre-experiment with the design of the static group comparison, mosquito capture used a spot survey of six houses; three houses have goat sheds and three cowshed houses; mosquito catching with WHO guidelines that one house there are two catchers; likewise in cattle sheds. Arrests were made all night from 06.00 pm-06.00 am. The results, the ratio of Anopheles spp mosquitoes caught in livestock sheds is 36.5 times more than at home; while the vector is 2.5 more. The results of the statistical analysis are significant (p=0,000). Livestock sheds can be used as an alternative to malaria vector control to accelerate the decrease in density so that the incidence of malaria also decreases.

Abstract

This study investigated the perceptions of students at DEBESMSCAT Cawayan Campus regarding COVID-19 vaccines. A descriptive survey method was used, and data were collected using a questionnaire. The findings revealed that a majority of the students at DEBESMSCAT Cawayan Campus have received COVID-19 vaccinations, falling short of the targeted vaccination rate of 70% mandated by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) for the resumption of face-to-face classes. A proportion of unvaccinated students expressed willingness to receive the vaccine. Overall, the COVID-19 vaccine was perceived as a crucial tool in preventing and protecting individuals from the virus, ensuring the safety of students' health in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, a portion of students harbored doubts about the vaccine's efficacy in protecting against the virus. The study identified common reasons behind vaccine hesitancy among students, including fear of potential side effects, lack of trust in the vaccine's safety and effectiveness, and exposure to misinformation about the vaccine. These findings highlight the importance of addressing the concerns of hesitant students through educational initiatives and awareness campaigns that emphasize the benefits of vaccination. Such efforts will play a vital role in promoting vaccine acceptance and ensuring the well-being of students and the broader community in the face of the ongoing pandemic. Further research is warranted to explore the underlying factors influencing students' decision-making processes regarding vaccination.
