Abstract

Background: In 2018, respiratory disease was the leading cause of death in Hajj pilgrims, accounting for 37.40% of total deaths. Purpose: This study analyzes the most influential risk factors for death caused by respiratory disease among Indonesian pilgrims in 2018. Methods: This study uses a cross sectional design. Secondary data was obtained from the 2018 Integrated Hajj Computerized System for Health (Siskohatkes) and sourced from the Hajj Health Center (Puskeshaji), Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia which is also recorded about the first to third Hajj medical examination records. The sample was all pilgrims who died while performing the Hajj in Saudi Arabia, 361 pilgrims. The variables included age, gender, pre-existing respiratory disease, education level, type of work, Body Mass Index (BMI), smoking status, and influenza vaccination status. The data was analyzed using chi square and multiple logistic regression. Results: The majority of pilgrims who died during the Hajj pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia in 2018 were aged ≥60 years (75.30%), male (58.40%), did not have a pre-existing respiratory disease (85.60%), had a low education level (46.00%), worked indoors (73.10%), had a normal BMI (48.20%), did not smoke (88.60%), and had had the influenza vaccine (56.20%). The most influential risk factors were pre-existing respiratory disease with PR = 1.55 (95% CI = 1.16 – 2.90) and influenza vaccination status with PR = 1.39 (95% CI = 1.07 – 1.81). Conclusion: Having a pre-existing respiratory disease and not being vaccinated against influenza increase the likelihood of respiratory disease death among Indonesian pilgrims in 2018.

Abstract

Background: Low public awareness of the impact of smoking makes the implementation of smoke-free areas (KTR) difficult. Smoke-free areas aim to protect the public from the direct and indirect effects of smoking. Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the correlation between the application of smoke-free areas and the prevalence of active and ex-smokers in Indonesia. Method: This study implemented a cross-sectional design, using secondary data from the Riskesdas 2018 on active and ex-smokers. KTR application data were obtained from the Profile of Non-Communicable Diseases in 2016. A Pearson product-moment test was conducted by a computer application to determine the correlation coefficient (r). This coefficient was used to describe the level of correlation between the two variables; significance was determined as a p value of 5%. Results: This study showed that the average application of KTR throughout Indonesia was 50.83%, active smokers comprised 23.49% of the population, and ex-smokers comprised 4.94%. Most active smokers were in Java and Sumatra, while the majority of ex-smokers were in Java and Sulawesi and the majority of KTR was in Java. This study shows that there is a positive correlation between KTR application and the percentage of ex-smokers (r = 0.46; p value = 0.01). Conclusion: There is a positive correlation between the application of KTR and an increase in ex-smokers. The government needs to increase the application of KTR policies.

Abstract

Background: The percentage of cesarean deliveries in Indonesia increased from 12% in 2012 to 17% in 2017. Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the factors that influenced the rate of cesarean deliveries in Indonesia in 2017. Method: The study used a cross-sectional design, gathering secondary data from the Indonesian Health Demographic Survey (IDHS) in 2017. The sample included mothers who gave birth to their last child in Indonesia in the last five years; a survey was conducted after respondents with missing data were excluded. The selection of samples was based on the availability of data in the IDHS 2017 dataset (8,683 respondents). A stratified two-stage sampling method was used. Data were gathered through a household questionnaire and a women of childbearing age questionnaire. Univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analyses were conducted using the chi-squared test and a simple logistic regression. Results: The factors that influenced the rate of cesarean section deliveries in Indonesia in 2017 were birth attendants (p value = 0.01; PR = 3.12; 95% CI = 2.88–3.38), number of Antenatal Care (ANC) visits (p=0.02; PR=1.23; 95%CI=1.03–1.47), low wealth index (p=0.02; PR=0.89; 95%CI=0.81–0.98), place of delivery (p=0.01; PR=0.87; 95%CI=0.81–0.94), and ANC provider (p=0.01; PR=0.57; 95%CI=0.53–0.62). The results of the analyses also obtained confounding factors; namely, parity and birth interval. Conclusion: Factors that influenced cesarean delivery in Indonesia in 2017 were a low wealth index, number of ANC visits, ANC provider, place of delivery, and birth attendants.

Abstract

Background: Green tobacco sickness (GTS) is a type of disease that is still not widely understood, but is often experienced by tobacco farmers. The duration and frequency of contact, the work procedures associated with wet tobacco, and individual vulnerability are risk factors for GTS. Purpose: This study aimed to measure the factors associated with incidences of GTS in tobacco farmers in Jember, Indonesia, to contribute to the prevention of GTS. Method: The research design used case-control. This research was conducted in Jember District, within a group of tobacco farmers. The case group included farmers who experienced GTS and the control group included farmers who did not experience GTS. The study measured age, sex, nutritional status, passive smoking status, alcohol consumption status, subjective complaints, individual hygiene, Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) attitudes, OHS actions, use of personal protective equipment, principal occupation, extra work, type of tobacco leaf, length of service, length of work-rest period, and workload. The study population were tobacco farmers. The sample size was determined using the Lemeshow sampling formula for case-control. The sampling technique was simple random sampling. Data analysis was conducted using chi-squared tests. Results: Variables related to GTS cases in tobacco farmers were sex (p = 0.01) and nutritional status (p = 0.03). There were no significant occupational factors. Conclusion: Factors that influence GTS are sex and nutritional status.
