Abstract

Background: Early initiation of breastfeeding (EIBF) is pivotal to the success of exclusive breastfeeding and plays an important role not only in reducing infection-related neonatal mortality but also in providing protection in the next period of life. Purpose: This study aims to identify predictive factors of early breastfeeding practices on Sulawesi Island. Methods: A cross-sectional study based on population by using data from the Indonesia Demographic and Health Surveys (IDHS) in 2017 was conducted on 1,040 women who had given live birth in 6 provinces on Sulawesi Island. The analysis used bivariate and multivariate logistic regression with predictive models for complex sample design, adjusted for confounders to examine the relationship of EIBF with independent variables. Results: The study showed that 50.58% of women practiced EIBF on Sulawesi Island. Significantly, and adjusted for confounder, it found the predictive factors of EIBF practice consecutively, singleton birth being the factor with the highest association value (aOR:11.35, 95%CI (0.00-0.07)), skin-to-skin contact (aOR:3.05,95%CI (2.22–4.21)), normal delivery (aOR:2.94, 95%CI (1.94–4.45)) and delivery accompanied by family (aOR: 1.68,95%  CI (1.06–2.67)) and parity factor >1 (aOR: 1.52,95% CI (1.10–2.10)). Conclusion: The fulfillment of education related to the urgency of implementing EIBF to pregnant women and their families as a support system as well as the application of standard operating procedure for EIBF for all types of deliveries in health facilities is vital to support the successful implementation of EIBF.

Abstract

Background: Depression differs from common mood swings and short-lived emotions. It has been extensively reported that cognitive impairment is associated with depression. Depression affects all aspects of life and interferes with productivity. Purpose: This study examined the association between cognitive function and depression in an Indonesian working age group. Methods: We used data from longitudinal socioeconomic and health surveys based on the fifth wave of the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) from October 2014 to April 2015. Household members aged 15-64 were included in the analysis. Depression was assessed using the Short Center for Epidemiological Research Depression Scale (CESD). Cognitive function was measured using the Cognitive Status Telephone Interview (TICS). Simple linear regression analysis was performed to examine the association between cognitive function and depression. Results: A total of 10,628 households were included. Most respondents had good cognitive function (61.84%) and no depression (82.19%). A simple linear regression analysis showed that household members with good cognitive functioning had a significantly lower risk of developing depression compared to household members with cognitive decline, he was significantly 1.28 lower. Conclusion: This study found a significant association between cognitive function and depression in the productive-age group. Further research exploring variables related to depression other than cognitive function is recommended. Health care providers should provide education, counselling, and training sessions related to healthy lifestyles and positive mindsets to prevent depression.

Abstract

Background: Stigmatization of People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) among adolescents today has become a significant barrier to preventing the increase of HIV/AIDS cases, including understanding those at risk and PLWHA themselves. Adolescents' knowledge and perceptions about PLWHA significantly influence HIV/AIDS stigma, given that adolescence signifies a phase of profound biological, psychological, and social transition. Objective: This research aims to determine the correlation between knowledge and perception of the stigma against people living with HIV/AIDS. Methods: This study utilizes secondary data from the Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS) 2017, analyzed using a cross-sectional method. The sample consisted of 14,270 adolescents in Indonesia aged 15 to 24 years. The study employed questionnaires on HIV/AIDS knowledge, perception towards PLWHA, and stigma towards PLWHA. Data analysis was conducted using univariate analysis to observe frequency distribution and bivariate analysis with a chi-square test to examine the relationship between two variables. Results: The research results indicate a significant correlation between adolescents' knowledge and stigma towards PLWHA at 0.00 (p<0.05), as well as a significant correlation between adolescents' perception and stigma towards people with HIV/AIDS at 0.00 (p<0.05). Conclusion: Prevention efforts through education and comprehensive approaches in delivering health information in a way that is well-received by adolescents can be presented innovatively.

Abstract

Background: Toddlers and children under 12 are still easily sick, particularly during the COVID-19 epidemic. The high number of COVID-19 cases in toddlers and children in Central Java Province must be monitored to prevent transmission to toddlers and children still susceptible to the disease. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to map the spread of COVID-19 cases in toddlers aged 0-5 years and children aged 6-11 years in the province of Central Java using the K-means cluster Methods: This was a descriptive observational study with a cross-sectional design. Data on COVID-19 cases in children 6-11 years and toddlers 0-5 years from 35 cities in Central Java in 2020-2021 were analyzed using the K-means cluster. The K-means cluster was used to cluster low, medium, and high cases and then map the spread of COVID-19. Results: Semarang, Semarang Regency, Boyolali, Klaten, Surakarta, and Banyumas became high cluster areas in cases of COVID-19 toddlers and children in 2021. Based on the mapping data, COVID-19 spread in young children and toddlers in 2020 and 2021 followed a nearly identical pattern. The high zone of COVID-19 in toddlers and children mostly had a higher total population, healthcare facilities, and population density than the medium and low zones. Conclusion: Semarang City, Semarang Regency, Boyolali, Klaten, Surakarta, and Banyumas should be looking for COVID-19 cases in toddlers and young children.

Abstract

Background: Multiphasic screening with GeneXpert MTB/RIF and PHQ-9 is a solution for achieving successful conversion of intensive phase sputum examination. Purpose: To determine the effectiveness and feasibility of multiphasic screening for clinical symptoms and mental health in patients using the Tuberculosis Directly Observed Therapy (TB-DOTS) strategy. Methods: This study used a survey approach with a one-sample multiple testing screening method on the case finding and mental health of patients with TB. This screening was carried out in two stages: Stage I, suspected TB screening, and Stage II, mental health screening of TB patients undergoing intensive treatment (two months). Samples were taken from 160 TB suspects who came to health centers in Jambi City from August 1 to October 1, 2022, using proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were analyzed using statistical software to determine the accuracy and feasibility of screening. Results: Sputum conversion (Smear [-]) was 97.78% and the prevalence of mental health problems in patients was 22.22%. Stage I screening (suspected TB [GeneXpert MTB/RIF]): cough >2 weeks sensitivity, 94.84%; PPV, 97.35%; and accuracy, 92.50%. Stage II screening (patient mental health [PHQ-9]) with a validity of 9 items in the range of 0.17-0.66; ICC (interclass correlation coefficient [ICC], 0.60-0.83; Cronbach's a coefficient, 0.88). Multiphasic yield screening is recommended to achieve a better treatment success rate. Conclusion: Early detection of cases and mental health problems of TB patients in the early phase of treatment is a solution for developing a TB-DOTS strategy at first-level health facilities.

Abstract

Background: A subset of patients diagnosed with COVID-19 is encountering persistent post-COVID symptoms. These symptoms can significantly impede their quality of life and exert profound effects on their day-to-day functioning. Purpose: This study aimed to identify the dimensions of quality of life most affected in patients with long COVID symptoms. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was applied using the SF-36 questionnaire which was distributed on Twitter and Instagram. Furthermore, a total of 122 respondents were obtained through accidental sampling. The association between variables was analyzed using Chi-square and Mann-Whitney tests. Results: Respondents who completed the questionnaire (n=122) came from different regions, with West Java as the largest area of origin (37.70%). In addition, the majority were female (n=103, 84.4%) under 25 years old (n=92, 75.41%), and the three symptoms experienced were fatigue (n=108; 35.29%), brain fog (n=61;19.93%), and olfactory disturbances (n=54; 17.65%). There was an association between long COVID duration and gender (p= 0.03). However, there was no association between other demographic characteristics with long COVID duration (p > 0.05). General health (41.67 (IQR=29), p= 0.00) and vitality (40.00 (IQR=20), p= 0.02) were the two aspects of quality of life significantly altered in patients with long COVID symptoms more than 3 months. Conclusion: The aspects of quality of life, particularly general health and vitality, experienced a significant decline in post-COVID-19 patients with long COVID symptoms for more than 3 months.
