Abstract

Introduction: Globally, Chronic Kidney Disease of Unknown etiology (CKDu) poses a growing medical and social challenge, particularly in agrarian countries with a high prevalence of pesticide exposure. Indonesia, is one of the countries with a dominant agricultural sector. Tanjungsari and Glonggong villages in Wanasari subdistrict, Brebes Regency, are agricultural areas with a high intensity of pesticide use. Methods: This research aimed to identify the prevalence of subclinical renal dysfunction and associated risk factors in horticultural farmers in areas with high pesticide exposure. This research applied a cross-sectional method involving 40 farmers aged 26-65 years from two villages in Wanasari District, Brebes Regency. Data collection was carried out through interviews, and examination of kidney function biomarkers (serum creatinine and eGFR). Statistical analysis was conducted using Logistic Regression tests. Results and Discussion: The study revealed that 37.5% of participants exhibited eGFR values <90 ml/min/1.73 m2, indicating subclinical impairment of kidney function. Employment duration >20 years (p=0.024; OR=6.000; 95% CI:1.263-28.498) and daily working hours >6 hours (p<0.001; OR=69.279; 95% CI:6.423-756.965) showed a significant association with reduced eGFR values. Occupational health interventions should prioritize managing the duration and intensity of exposure to hazardous substances in the workplace, regardless of the workers' gender. Conclusion: The conclusion is that the daily working hours and the employment duration of the farmers are significantly associated with impaired kidney function, potentially acting as an initial marker of CKDu.

Abstract

Introduction: Dengue haemorrhagic fever (DHF) remains a critical public health challenge in Surabaya, Indonesia. Despite intensive efforts, standardized measures for assessing community involvement in DHF control are lacking. This study addresses the gap by developing a Community Participation Index (CPI) that encompasses 3M Plus actions (drain, cover, recycle water containers plusother preventive actions), opportunities, and collective action at the household level, providing a comprehensive, quantitative tool to evaluate and guide intervention strategies. Methods: An analytical observational case-control design was conducted, involving 1,880 households, selected through stratified random sampling from 47 health centers across diverse epidemiological and demographic zones. Data collection included structured questionnaires, household interviews, and direct observation, with validity and reliability ensured by Cronbach alpha 0.74 and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The “One House One Jumantik” program, introduced nationally since 2016 and locally in Surabaya since 2017, served as a focal intervention to increase active community monitoring and participation. Results and Discussion: The CPI model demonstrated satisfactory fit (CFI 0.92, RMSEA 0.06), with opportunity and collective action recognized as the strongest contributors. The implementation of “One House One Jumantik” correlated with increased engagement and improved 3M Plus practices, resulting in lower DHF incidence. Biases related to sampling and self-reporting weremitigated through careful design and data triangulation. Conclusion: The CPI offers significant practical value for DHF surveillance, targeted interventions, and policy formulation. Strengthening ongoing education, improving access, and adapting programs to local contexts are essential for bridging gaps between awareness and sustainable action.

Abstract

Introduction: Environmental noise is a non-auditory stressor that can trigger inflammatory and oxidative responses in the body. Continuous noise exposure is associated with increased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species (ROS). This can disrupt the body's cellular balance. This study aimed to determine the effects of chronic noise exposure on serum superoxide dismutase (SOD), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and adiponectin levels in wistar rats. Methods: This study used a laboratory based experimental design, involving twenty-four adult male Wistar rats. The rats were randomly divided into two groups: a control group and a treatment group. The treatment group was exposed to 95 dB noise for four hours daily for 14 consecutive days, while the control group received no exposure. SOD, TNF-α, and adiponectin levels were determined using ELISA. The independent t-test was used for statistical analysis. Results and Discussion: TNF-α was significantly higher (p < 0.05) and adiponectin was significantly lower (p < 0.05) in the treatment group than in the control group. SOD levels did not differ significantly across groups (p > 0.05). Noise exposure causes metabolic and inflammatory disruptions, as evidenced by the rise in TNF-α and fall in adiponectin, but the SOD levels remain unchanged, suggesting a limited antioxidant response. Conclusion: An inflammatory response and decreased adiponectin were caused by noise exposure at 95 dB for 14 days, suggesting a possible risk of metabolic dysfunction. Nonetheless, the stability of SOD levels indicates that enzymatic antioxidant action is maintained in these circumstances.

Abstract

Introduction: Ultra-slow degradation makes LDPE a major source of environmental pollutant. Considering the global annual plastics consumption is in the range of 0.5 to 1 trillion units, there is a pressing need to understand the environmental and health effects of plastics and particularly those of LDPE. The study is based on the exploration of biologically converted LDPE by superworms (Zophobas atratus) and mealworms (Tenebrio molitor) and the application of the frass of these worms as a liquid biofertilizer for plant growth. Methods: This study was carried out using an experimental design of zero-waste vermicomposting. To monitor N retention at larva survival, frass production and nutrients in frass (N-P-K and carbon balance), worms were fed with either organic feed (pollard) or LDPE plastic. Subsequently, vermicompost of tea was prepared from the frass and applied as a fertilizer in hydroponic cultivation of Brassica rapa L. (bok choy) for determining the growth performance using specific quantitative traits including height, leaf number, and root length. Results and Discussion: There were no significant differences in nutrient composition either between the worm castings derived from those fed on plastic and wheat bran or between those fed on plastic and wheat bran. Over the 30 days of growth, bok choy plants fertilized with mealworm-derived vermicompost from plastic feed showed improved the other treatment groups in root growth, plant height, leaf count. Conclusion: Using frass from plastic-fed worms does not negatively impact plant growth. However, adding organic feed is necessary to optimize the nutrient content required by plants.

Abstract

Introduction: Stunting impacts global health, particularly in low-resource and uncertain climates. Indonesian child stunting, under-sanitation, and infectious disease meta-analysis. Discussion: Unsanitary environments and infectious disease histories are connected to stunting, we found. Food alone does not stunt. Environmental, infectious, and social factors do. Children with a history of infectious diseases had more than double the risk of stunting (pooled OR = 3.72, 95% CI: 2.05–6.73), while those with inadequate sanitation had over three times the chances. Children with inadequate sanitation and a history of infectious disorders were 3.29 times more likely to stunt than those with good sanitation and no infectious diseases. These findings suggest that poor sanitation and infectious diseases induce stunting, especially in harsh regions. Conclusion: Indonesian stunting is caused by climate change, sanitation, and infectious diseases. Ending stunting requires better sanitation, water, and infection control. Future research should examine how disease, hygiene, and climate impact effect. Public health, environmental, and community groups must collaborate to prevent stunting.

Abstract

Introduction: Sarung Goyor is one of the popular textile industries in Indonesia. The manual production process results in the release of a high number of dust particles into the air, including rayon fibers, which are a major component of the fabric. Inhaling fine fibers causes respiratory tract irritation and impaired lung function. There hasn't been much research exploring rayon dust exposure related to small-scale weaving crafts. This study aims to find a relationship between rayon fibers and lung function among sarong weavers in Indonesia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out at the Sarung Goyor Industry Center North Wanarejan, Pemalang, involving 101 male weavers. The data collected includes total dust and inhalable dust levels, lung function values, and ventilation area.Dust sampling was performed using the Hi-Q HVP-2000 and SKC PCXR 8000, and lung function values were measured using the Spiro LAB III according to ATS standards. Data were analyzed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and correlation test. Results and Discussion: 78% of respondents experienced impaired lung function, obstructive 22%, restrictive 46.5%, and mixed 18.8%. There is a strong relationship between age and restriction (p = 0.001) as well as inhaled dust and restriction (p = 0.026). A statistically significant inverse association was identified between ventilation area and the presence of obstructions. Conclusion: Rayon has a significant impact on lung function, causing restriction and obstruction over time. Therefore, it is essential to advocate for improved workplace ventilation and the consistent use of protective masks among weavers.

Abstract

Introduction: Indonesia is currently facing increasing climate-related health risks, with childhood pneumonia remaining a key climate sensitive disease that reflects strong biometeorological influences of temperature, humidity, and rainfall. The 3,968 reported cases of childhood pneumonia in Bojonegoro for 2024 highlight the necessity for tailored forecasting instruments to enhance climate-responsive health strategies. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average with Exogenous Variables (SARIMAX)-based model to forecast climate-sensitive childhood pneumonia in Bojonegoro. Methods: We analyzed monthly childhood pneumonia data alongside temperature, humidity, and rainfall from 2020–2024, supported by data characterization, correlation testing, and stability assessments. A climate- based predictive model—adjusted with a pandemic lockdown dummy—was then selected based on fit, accuracy, and residual diagnostics to generate forecasts for 2025–2029. Results and Discussion: From 2020 to 2024, Bojonegoro documented 21,032 childhood pneumonia cases, with a notable rise following periods of elevated humidity and rainfall. The SARIMAX (0,1,1)(0,1,1)[3] model, adjusted for lockdown effects, yielded robust forecasts indicating mid-year peaks aligned with monsoon transitions, followed by gradual declines, with humidity (–3.682) and rainfall (–0.124) serving as significant negative predictors of airborne transmission. It reduces pneumonia risk through enhanced droplet settling, decreased pathogen stability, and rainfall-driven washout effects. Conclusion: In conclusion, the lockdown-adjusted SARIMAX model identifies humidity and rainfall as reliable predictors for childhood pneumonia trends in Bojonegoro. It supports the development of climate-resilient health planning under the national guidelines, facilitating early-warning systems and targeted pneumonia prevention in vulnerable villages/sub districts.

Abstract

Introduction: The presence of Escherichia coli strains in freshwater fish like catfish (Clarias gariepinus) populations has caused contamination, particularly in Indonesian aquaculture areas where domestic garbage is the primary source of contamination. In order to determine the appropriate handling of E. coli and fecal Coliform contamination before and after harvesting, this study examined the effects of treatment on safety measures for consumption. Methods: Between March and November 2022, a posttest-only control design was used in 126 catfish samples from Bumiayu, Central Java for an experimental study that was quasi-quantitative. There were two types of feed used during growth, followed by six treatments post-harvest (washing; soaking; fry; grill). The MPN method was employed in microbiology testing. Results and Discussion: There was no significant difference in microbial load variation before harvesting the food, with a pre-harvest feed variation of p > 0.05 (indicating that environmental contamination may have been more important). Thermal treatments that completely eradicated E. coli and fecal coliforms (0 MPN/g) by cooking at high temperature for 4-6 minutes and grilling for 5-7 minutes, were the only alternative to post-harvest treatment. Washing and soaking alone remained ineffective. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that high-temperature processing is a reliable method to ensure microbiological safety of catfish, whereas feed variation before harvest has minimal influence under environmentally contaminated conditions. The findings provide practical guidance on safe cooking time–temperature combinations to prevent E. coli exposure from aquaculture products.

Abstract

Introduction: Spatial analysis of industrial environmental performance data is necessary for optimizing industrial sites, mitigating environmental risks, enhancing environmental performance, minimizing adverse effects, and promoting industrial sustainability. This study aims to map the environmental performance of industry and its effect on water quality and the incidence of diarrhea in East Java Province, Indonesia. Methods: This research was observational and used secondary data. The population and sample of this study were all 38 districts and cities in East Java Province. The study was conducted from June to September 2025. This study utilized the Global Positioning System (GPS) to collect data, namely coordinate points based on the addresses of industries or companies in East Java. Coordinates were colored blue, green, or red according to the industrial environmental performance rating (PROPER). The data analysis in this study used linear regression and a spatial autocorrelation approach in ArcGIS. Results and Discussion: The data of performance in environmental management of companies for 2022–2023 for regencies or cities in East Java showed that the industries included in the PROPER assessment were mostly from Sidoarjo, Pasuruan, and Gresik. The red PROPER ratings were most prevalent in Gresik, Sidoarjo, and Surabaya, while the blue PROPER ratings were most prevalent in Pasuruan, Sidoarjo, and Gresik. Conclusion: There is a spatial effect on the distribution of the number of red proper in East Java province. And a significant correlation was found between the red PROPER rating and the number of diarrhea cases per district/city in East Java province.

Abstract

Background: Growth faltering in early childhood remains a global concern. Major contributing factors include poor sanitation, recurrent infections, a history of low birth weight (LBW), and environmental enteric dysfunction (EED) that reduces nutrient absorption. This study examines the determinants of growth faltering among children aged 6–23 months in the agricultural areas of Brebes Regency, Indonesia. Methods: This study employed a case–control design involving non-stunted children aged 6–23 months. The case group consisted of 64 children with weight-for-age (WAZ) < 5th percentile, while the control group included children with WAZ ≥ 5th percentile, classified according to the WHO Child Growth Standards. Data were collected through anthropometric assessments and standardized, structured interviews, with participants selected through purposive sampling. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the determinants of growth faltering. Results and Discussion: There were no significant differences between groups in mean maternal age, child age, or maternal employment status. Maternal education levels were lower in the case group. Acute respiratory infection (ARI) (OR = 2.3; 95% CI: 1.10–5.08), history of LBW (OR = 4.9; 95% CI: 1.21–19.94), and EED (OR = 2.0; 95% CI: 0.93–4.32) were identified as determinants of growth faltering among children living in the agricultural areas of Brebes Regency. Conclusion: EED is a key determinant of growth faltering among children aged 6–23 months in the agricultural areas of Brebes Regency, alongside recent ARI and a history of LBW. Keywords: Brebes Regency, Environmental Enteric Dysfunction, Growth failure, Low Birth Weight, Upper Respiratory Tract Infections
