Abstract

Background: Jaundice is a health problem for newborns that occurs in around 60% of term pregnancies and around 80% of premature pregnancies. Babies who experience severe jaundice need to receive proper examination and treatment to prevent morbidity and death. Mothers' role in overcoming the lack of breast milk in newborn babies is important. Hence, they need to be educated and empowered to avoid health problems that can be prevented if mothers and babies receive timely care. Objectives: This research aims to analyze the effect of maternal empowerment on preventing early jaundice in babies in Pematangsiantar City. Method: The method used was the quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent control group design model, carried out on 62 pregnant women and jaundice assessment on 62 newborns (31 pregnant women who were given education and monitored for empowerment and 31 mothers who were given education but not monitored). Sampling was taken using consecutive sampling. Data collection used a validated questionnaire and statistical tests with chi-square. Results: Statistical tests showed that, after empowering mothers, 90.3% implemented IMD in the intervention group and 83.9% in the control group (p=0.707). The results showed that after empowering mothers there were 93.5% of babies did not experience jaundice, and in the control group 71.0% did not experience jaundice. Statistically, there was a difference between the two groups (p=0.46). Conclusion: Maternal empowerment can influence the prevention of jaundice in babies. Implementation of empowerment through providing education about IMD, breastfeeding, and jaundice needs to be carried out by health workers.

Abstract

Background: Cigarette smoke exposure increases the risk of obesity, metabolic syndrome, hypertension, hyperglycemia, and dyslipidemia. The nicotine content in cigarettes can acutely increase energy expenditure, decrease appetite, and several other chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, lung disease, cancer, and so on. Objectives: This study aims to determine the effect of cigarette smoke exposure on anthropometric measurements, lipid profiles, fasting blood glucose, fasting insulin, and blood pressure in overweight/obese adolescents. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study involving overweight/obese adolescents conducted from September to October 2019 to evaluate the effects of tobacco exposure on anthropometric measurements, lipid profile, fasting blood glucose (FBG), fasting insulin, and blood pressure. Results: This study showed no significant differences in the age distribution, body weight, body height, height-for-age z-score (HAZ), hip circumference, body mass index (BMI), BMI-for-age z-score, fasting insulin, FBG, lipid profile, and blood pressure between low, moderate, and high cigarette smoke exposure in overweight/obese adolescents, but the high exposure group had a bigger waist circumference than the moderate exposure group (107,45 + 11,25 vs 99,35 + 11,36 cm, p = 0,019) and low exposure (107,45 + 11,25 vs 99,04 + 12,08 cm, p = 0,015). Conclusion: The degree of exposure to heavy cigarette smoke has a greater waist circumference than exposure to light and moderate cigarette smoke. Cigarette smoke exposure is significantly associated with body weight and hip circumference, and heavy cigarette smoke exposure is prevalent in adolescent boys.

Abstract

Background: The cardiovascular system undergoes physiological and pathological changes due to pregnancy. Heart disease is the leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality during pregnancy. Pregnancy-related complications are common in mothers, approximately 1-4% of cases. In most countries in the world, including Indonesia, the number of cases and prevalence of heart disease complicating pregnancy is low. Objectives: This study focuses on the relationship of heart disease in pregnancy with the mode of delivery and length of stay among pregnant women in Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital 2017-2022. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 124 pregnant women who were determined through a purposive sampling method and carried out in October 2023 - December 2024 at Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital using secondary data, namely medical records of patients diagnosed with heart disease in pregnancy. Data analysis was performed univariately and bivariately using the chi-square comparative test. Results: Correlation between variables was analyzed using chi-square comparison test and a significant correlation was obtained for heart disease in pregnancy with mode of delivery (p-value; 0.001 <0.05), and length of stay (p-value; 0.000) Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between heart disease in pregnancy with mode of delivery and length of stay in laboring women at Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital Makassar. The severity of heart disease in pregnant women can affect the mode of delivery, so counseling before delivery is very important, it is expected to determine the right choice of delivery to reduce the risk of morbidity, mortality and length of stay in mothers.

Abstract

Background: An epidemiology study at Menur Public Health Center revealed that the highest case of hypertension was found in the late elderly (56-65 years) in the period of September-October 2023, most of them have dental and oral problems. Based on data, most elderly (41.82%) don’t seek any treatment when they experience toothache due to limited access and lack of individual awareness. Therefore, an empowerment program of periodic basic oral screening by cadres in Posyandu is needed for early detection to overcome possible obstacles when visiting the dentist experienced by elderly with hypertension. Objectives: To provide training for cadres in Posyandu Werda Asih regarding basic oral screening through the "Srikandi" program to improve oral health-seeking behavior for elderly with hypertension. Method: The program was conducted by providing direct training to cadres through guidebooks and posters. The program was evaluated using post-test related to basic oral screening and checklist sheet for skills. Results: After training, all cadres in Posyandu Werda Asih for the Elderly (100.00%) had a good level of understanding with an average score of 14 (the lowest score was 13 (18.18%), the highest score was 15 (18.18%)). The skills evaluation showed that all cadres (100%) were able to conduct all of the examination. Conclusion: According to post-test and checklist results, the "Srikandi" program can improve cadres' understanding and ability to perform basic oral screening. This will allow cadres to identify early dental and oral health issues and promote oral health-seeking behavior in the elderly with hypertension.

Abstract

Background: In Indonesia, smoking is very prevalent, mainly among men, causing a high prevalence of smoking-related diseases. In this country, smoking is linked to social construction rooted in how to become men and women. Male smoking is acceptable; otherwise, the social stigma associated with female smokers drives them to conceal their habits, making intervention difficult. Objective: The paper examined the gender aspect of smoking and communication in promoting health within a sensitive issue and context—smoking and gender in Indonesia. Method: This paper employed a thematic analysis of two doctoral theses on gender and smoking, each thesis representing either male or female aspects, to explore the relationship between gender values and smoking. Mutual factors contributing to men's and women's smoking behaviors were gender values related to smoking, the importance of different life stages, and children as an entry point for adult smoking cessation. Results: Tobacco control interventions may be hampered if these influences are undermined. Conclusion: It can be concluded, smoking-related health communication must consider gender variations and empower gender values.

Abstract

Background: Physical activity plays a crucial role in children's health and well-being. Active school commuting (ASC), one of the strategies to enhance physical activity among children, has declined globally. However, no data is available for Indonesian children. None of the determinants of children’s ASC has been examined in Indonesian studies. Objectives: This study aimed to 1) measure the ASC rate and 2) analyze the association between individual, social, and physical environmental factors, and the ASC rate among primary school children in three urban areas in Indonesia (South Jakarta, Central Jakarta, and South Tangerang). Methods: This is a cross-sectional study using an online survey completed by mothers as representatives of their children. The survey was completed by 441 parents from 9 primary schools in South Jakarta, Central Jakarta, and South Tangerang. Results: 1) Only 28.3% of children engage in ASC (walking or cycling), 2) individual factor (‘do not dare to go to school alone’), social factors (‘having a friend for going to school’ and ‘afraid of street crime’), and environmental factors (inadequacy of public transport, broken roads, and school distance) are significantly associated with ASC. Conclusion: less than one-third of primary school children in South Jakarta, Central Jakarta, and South Tangerang walk or bike to go to and back from school. Perceived individual, social, and environmental factors might hinder active school commuting among children. Future interventions need to attenuate negative perceptions toward ASC from individual, social, and environmental perspectives.

Abstract

Background: Data from the RISKESDAS year 2018 indicates an increasing prevalence of overweight among adults. This increase is in line with the increase in portion sizes, where the presence of people of different gender and impression management are suspected to influence portion sizes. Hence, further study on portion sizes is needed to aid in developing effective policies to promote healthy eating behaviors. Objectives: To investigate the influence of cross-gender presence and impression management on portion sizes during lunch. Method: This study employed a quasi-experimental design consisting of control and experimental groups. The experiment involved a confederate as a dining companion for participants in the experimental group whose gender differs from the participants. We analyzed data from 227 participants, with an expected effect size of d = 0.25, significance level (α) of 0.05, and power of 0.95. Participant criteria included being students of Universitas Negeri Semarang (UNNES), not currently on a diet, having no allergies, and not being vegan or vegetarian. Impression management was measured using items from Turnley & Bolino (1999), while portion sizes were measured using the Fake Food Buffet (FFB) developed by Bucher et al. (2011). Results: Participants with high impression management tended to have larger portion sizes when dining with individuals of the opposite gender than when dining alone. Impression management positively influenced portion sizes. Without the influence of impression management, when dining with individuals of the opposite gender, participants tended to choose smaller portion sizes compared to when dining alone. Conclusion: The community must be aware of the significant influence of high impression management and the presence of individuals of the opposite gender on meal portions. Individuals with high impression management may consider avoiding social eating situations if they want to reduce their portion sizes.

Abstract

Background: HIV/AIDS is a significant global health and social issue, particularly affecting sex workers, who are the second most common high-risk population. Efforts have been attempted to address the challenges, including promoting safer sex and increasing sex workers’ awareness of condom use to reduce sexually transmitted disease (STDs) transmission. Objectives: This study aimed to examine the knowledge, attitude, and perception among FSWs in North Jakarta towards condom use to prevent HIV. Method: Using a validated WHO questionnaire, this cross-sectional community-based study was conducted in pubs and lounges in North Jakarta among 182 FSWs. The questionnaire was translated forward and backward to ensure accuracy. The data were analyzed using SPSS Statistics for Windows and transcription in MS Word for qualitative data. Results: The reliability test for knowledge and attitude were 0.427 and 0.456, respectively. The study found that most participants (75%) had good knowledge about the benefits of condom use, and most agreed that condoms are suitable for casual or established relationships. However, due to cultural barriers in Indonesia, most subjects (68.1%) felt embarrassed about buying condoms.  Conclusion: The study found that FSWs possess a good knowledge and attitude regarding the utilization of condoms to avert STDs, particularly HIV/AIDS. Nonetheless, there is a need to enhance FSWs’ attitudes towards condom use and perceptions of health services, particularly those related to STDs, given their classification as a population at high risk.
