Abstract

Background: Pandeglang, a district in Banten province, Indonesia, was the worst affected area of the Sunda Strait tsunami which occurred on 22nd December, 2018. Aside from threats of communicable disease outbreaks, the district faced the challenges of managing non-communicable diseases (NCD) in the community. Purpose: The aim of the study is to describe the post tsunami impact on cases of hypertension and diabetes mellitus and the expected one-year projections of these diseases in the district of Pandeglang, Banten. Methods: In January 2019, we collected primary data from Pandeglang District Health Office (DHO) and 15 Public Health Centres (PHCs) that were heavily affected by the tsunami. Surveillance officers were also interviewed for their subjective opinions on disease projections in both the DHO and PHCs. Aggregated data of cases presenting to the PHCs for assistance were analysed in relation to the post tsunami period. The diseases of interest included hypertension and diabetes mellitus. Results: Reported cases of hypertension and diabetes mellitus increased a few days after the tsunami. For hypertension, the cases spiked on the 5th and 8th days, but for diabetes mellitus the spike came much later. Average cases of hypertension and diabetes mellitus per PHC were 62 and 3, respectively. At district and PHC level, hypertension and diabetes mellitus were considered as minor contributing factors to the morbidity and mortality in the affected communities. The projection of these diseases was optimistic after the first month. Conclusion: It can be concluded that the volume of cases with hypertension and diabetes in the district of Pandeglang tended to be in the first few weeks post tsunami These diseases are projected to lessen in the second month after the disaster due to the recovery of local health services.

Abstract

Background: Norovirus has become a major cause of severe outbreaks of gastroenteritis since the discovery of the rotavirus vaccine, with the main symptom being diarrhea. Until now, research on the epidemiological analysis of norovirus has not been carried out at Regional Public Hospital (RSUD) Dr. Soetomo, Surabaya. Purpose: This study aims to provide clinical epidemiology data and an analysis of norovirus infections in children with diarrhea at Regional Public Hospital (RSUD) Dr. Soetomo, Surabaya, Indonesia, including the prevalence of norovirus infection in each age group and sex, its clinical appearance, and its seasonal variation. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in children aged 1–60 months hospitalized for diarrhea in RSUD Dr. Soetomo between April 2013 and March 2014. Identification of the virus in the stool was done by norovirus enzyme immunoassay Quick NaviTM Noro2. The proportion, age, sex, clinical symptoms, and patterns of the norovirus seasonal data were calculated. Results: Norovirus was detected in 64 samples (19%) of the 340 stool samples, with a mean patient age of 11.75 months; it was mostly found in patients less than 24 months of age (95%), and 64% were male. The monthly pattern of norovirus infection was mostly found in November, followed by May and April. The clinical symptoms were fever (72%), vomiting (66%), bloating (59%), abdominal cramps (34%), perianal inflammation (27%), abdominal distension (16%), and seizures (8%). Conclusion: The prevalence of norovirus was found to be high in patients with diarrhea aged 1–60 months hospitalized in RSUD Dr. Soetomo, with a proportion of 19%. Further research is needed to determine the severity of norovirus infection.

Abstract

Background: Based on the Indonesia basic health research report in 2018, the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the productive age group in Indonesia had increased from the previous year, to 1.97%. This condition can cause various complications that contribute to the high morbidity, which affects quality of life and productivity, so risk factors for CKD need to be understood to prevent the occurrence of the disease. Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the risk factors associated with CKD in the Indonesian productive-age population. Method: This study used data sourced from Indonesian Family Life Survey 5 (IFLS-5) with a cross-sectional research design. The study population was composed of all Indonesian residents who were respondents of IFLS-5. The research sample was made up of respondents aged 15–64 for whom complete information was available. The sample size was 29,120 respondents. The variables analyzed in this study were diabetes, hypertension, obesity, smoking, and CKD. The analysis method used was the chi-square test. Results: Bivariate analysis showed a significant relationship between CKD and diabetes (p = 0.01; prevalence ratio [PR] = 2.71; 95% CI = 1.74–4.22), hypertension (p = 0.01; PR = 2.62; 95% CI = 2.08–3.30), obesity (p = 0.01; PR = 1.67; 95% CI = 1.25–2.23), and smoking (p = 0.01; PR = 1.43; 95% CI = 1.17–1.75) in the productive age group in Indonesia. Conclusion: Diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and smoking have a significant relationship with CKD in the productive age group in Indonesia.

Abstract

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that is still a global health problem. Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (DM) can result in poor glycemic status, with factors that affect patients including long-term DM and medication compliance. Purpose: This study aimed to determine the risk factors of long-term DM and non-compliance with medication on the poor glycemic control status of patients with type 2 DM. Methods: This type of research used observational analysis with a case–control design. Samples were taken from patients with type 2 DM, with 40 cases and 40 controls. The criteria for sample inclusion were that the patients had a glycosylated hemoglobin level check, were willing to be research respondents, and could communicate well. The exclusion criterion was patients experiencing a drastic decline in health status during the study. The sampling technique used was consecutive sampling. This research was conducted at the Panti Wilasa Citarum Hospital in Semarang City from July to September 2019. The relationship and the risk of long-term DM and adherence to taking medication with glycemic status were tested using the chi-square test. Results: This study showed that a duration of DM >5 years (p = 0.01; Odss Ratio (OR) = 3.46; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.37 < OR < 8.69) and non-compliance with taking medication (p = 0.02; OR = 3.15; 95% CI = 1.25 < OR < 7.93) are risk factors for poor glycemic status. Conclusion: Duration of DM >5 years and non-compliance with taking medication are risk factors for poor glycemic status in patients with type 2 DM.

Abstract

Background: Pulmonary tuberculosis has a huge impact on the lives of patients—physically, economically, and socially—and can thus cause stress. Prolonged stress can cause illness and affect one's health behavior, so that it requires proper coping efforts such as management problems and emotional regulation so that adaptive health behavior can be formed. Purpose: The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of coping efforts (problem management and emotional regulation) on the treatment behavior of patients with lung tuberculosis in the city of Surabaya using the theoretical approach of transactional stress and coping. Methods: This study was an observational study with a cross-sectional design conducted in 13 Public Health Center (PHC) in Surabaya with the highest number of new cases of positive acid resistant bacteria of tuberculosis (TB-BTA+) with 229 populations. The sampling technique used was simple random sampling and found 142 respondents, with the inclusion criteria being patients with pulmonary TB who were undergoing treatment in the first quarter. The data collection used a questionnaire, and the data analysis was performed using logistic regression. Results: This study found that there was an influence of problem management (p = 0.01; prevalence ratio [PR] = 1.36; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.04 < PR < 1.78) on treatment behavior, while the emotional regulation variable and the characteristic variable did not influence treatment behavior. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that patients with pulmonary TB who performed good coping efforts formed good treatment behavior.

Abstract

Background: Dermatophytosis is one of the most common skin diseases that affects cats and dogs. Geographic factors play an important role in determining prevalence, showing high rates of prevalence in warm and humid environments. Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the macroscopic and microscopic identification of different types of dermatophytes present on stray dogs. Methods: The design of this study was laboratory-based research. Each sample was collected from an infection site (nail, hair, or skin) that was identified by conducting a physical examination of a stray dog that was infected with fungi. The skin scraping, nail clipping, and fur cutting samples were collected from infected dogs and then cultured on Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA). The cultures were incubated at 26°C for five weeks. The isolates of fungi were then examined macroscopically and microscopically. The Lactophenol Cotton Blue (LPCB) staining technique was used for fungi morphology identification. Results: Overall, the most common type of dermatophytes that affected the dogs were Trichophyton spp. (64.70%), Aspergillus spp. (10.10%), Microsporum spp. (7.20%), and Curvularia spp. (5.60%). Conclusion: This study revealed the most common dermatophyte infections found on stray dogs in Selangor, Malaysia. This study can assist investigators in understanding the prevalence of the dermatophyte burden in stray dogs and help prevent further complication, such as the spread of illness, especially zoonotic infection.

Abstract

Background: Research on scabies in boarding schools has been widely carried out, however, the nature of transmission has not yet been analyzed. The transmission can occur due to the risk of direct contact when using shared beds. Purpose: This study aims to analyze the risk of bed usage in the event of a scabies infection in boarding schools. Methods: This study adopted a case-control design method. The independent variable was the use of beds, including using a shared bed and using one's own bed. The dependent variable was scabies, which was determined on the basis of the diagnostic criteria set for scabies. The sample size was 60 students, who had lived for at least four weeks in boarding schools. The sample comprised two groups: the group that used a shared bed (30 students) and the group that used their own beds (30 students). A non-probability sampling method was employed to record data. The data was collected by using a scabies checklist. Direct examinations and interviews were conducted at the Fathul Huda Demak and the Selamat Kendal boarding schools in February 2020. Statistical tests were carried out using chi-square analysis. Results: This study revealed the risk of developing scabies when a shared bed was used, with p=0.00 (p<0.05); OR=7.67; and 95%CI= 2.42–24.25. Conclusion: Students who used a shared bed in boarding schools were at 7.67 times the risk of developing scabies compared to students who used their own beds.

Abstract

Background: Cerebral palsy is non-progressive disorder that can cause limited movement and lead to postural deformity in children, which can affects all the psychosocial aspects and, thus, impacts children’s’ quality of life as well. Assessment of quality of life is important to evaluate suitable intervention measures for children with cerebral palsy. Purpose: This study aims to investigate the domains and determine the quality of life in children with cerebral palsy between ages 2 and 18. Methods: This was a descriptive study that employed a cross-sectional design approach. Primary data was obtained through a questionnaire. This study used the pediatric quality of life inventory (PedsQL)TM 3.0 cerebral palsy module. The study was conducted from November 2019 to February 2020. The data was collected at the Department of Medical Rehabilitation at the Dr. Soetomo Hospital, Peduli CP Foundation, and the Happy CP Community. This study involved 52 subjects, aged 2–18 years. Results: Almost all of the subjects (76.90%) had an impaired or poor quality of life. From the seven existing domains, only one domain received a good score: the domain of movement and balance. Conclusion: Based on the PedsQLTM 3.0 cerebral palsy module, parents reported that the quality of life in children (ages 2–18 years) having cerebral palsy was still low. Only the movement and balance domain got a good score.
