Abstract

Introduction : Colorectal cancer is a malignant tumor that grows in the colon tissue. In the Asian region, in 2018, cases and deaths from colorectal cancer are highest in East Asia (there were 736,573 cases and 325,128 of them died) and Southeast Asia (there were 95,223 cases and 52,475 of them died). Aims: Several studies have been conducted regarding the effect of a low-fiber diet and an increased risk of colorectal cancer, but it still shows mixed results. Methods: This study is an unobstrutive study with a systematic review and meta-analysis method. Data sources came from 14 primary studies with a case-control study design that met the inclusion criteria. Data analysis was performed using CMA software trial version 3.0 with a confidence level of α = 5%. Research with low-fiber diet variables shows heterogeneous variations in results so that the chosen model is random effect model. Result: The analysis states that there was a significant relationship between a low-fiber diet (CI: 0.421–0.867) and an increased risk of colorectal cancer due to the role of soluble and insoluble fiber. Lack of intake of soluble fiber can decrease insulin action and blood sugar control or the production of short-chain fatty acids, whereas insufficient intake of insoluble fiber can increase the potential for interactions between mutagens and colonic mucosa. Conclusion: The results of the study are expected to be an input for a proper diet so that there is no increase in cases of colorectal cancer.

Abstract

Introduction: People living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) face bio-psycho-socio-spiritual problems. The stigma against PLWHA exists in more than 65 countries. Indonesia occupied the highest position in the Pacific with a case rate of 62.8%. Stigma has contributed to the failure of HIV and AIDS epidemic-control programs. Aims: To determine the stigma against PLWHA in Indonesia. Method: This study used the 2017 IDHS dataset with a cross-sectional design. The study sample comprised 47.233 people. The variables studied included age, sex, marital status, educational level, economic status, employment status, mass media exposure, type of residence, knowledge about HIV and AIDS, and stigma against PLWHA. The data analysis technique was the chi-square test and logistic regression with α 0.05 (5%). Result: Factors that determined the stigma of PLWHA include age 15-19 (OR 1.611), age 20-24 (OR 1.438), age 25-29 (OR 1.131), age 30-34 (OR 0.993), male gender (OR 0.834), married status (OR 1.416), educational level less (1.247), very poor economic status (OR 1.503), poor (OR, 1.134), medium (OR 1.080), rich (OR 0.972), not working ( OR 1.065), and lack of knowledge (OR 2.588). Conclusion:  person aged 15-24 years, female, single, have low education, poorest/poor, do ot have a job, and have a low level of knowledge about HIV and AIDS are very likely to be stigmatized towards PLWHA. Education related to HIV and AIDS, especially how HIV and AIDS are transmitted, still needs to be improved so that it can reach all levels in society

Abstract

Introduction: Women dominate  Indonesia's health system but  there is no clear evidence how this is represented equally in the decision-making process. Globally, the healthcare system is challenged by gender segregation of health managerial position. Aims: This study  is to explain the findings  regarding patterns of male or female dominance in the particular division of the district health office. Methods: This study was an original research discussing gender segregation of male and female dominance as health managers in district health office. We listed the characteristics of health managers in two provinces with different kinship system. These characteristics were then compared with several gender segregation patterns i.e. work area; position requirement; dominant task coordination; workplace; emergency possibility; budget; percentage of the female manager based on matriarchy and patriarchy background. Result: Female managers of a matriarchal background dominate in General Secretariat (63.4%). Public Health and Community Empowerment (62.5%) and Healthcare Services (80%). A significant portion of men of a patriarchy background shows that men are dominating in two divisions, Disease Prevention and Control (57.8%) and Health Services (55.3%). The study proved the existence of the dominance of one gender in a specific job. This indicated the existence of gender segregation in the healthcare system. Conclusion: Female managers tend to be placed in domestic organization affairs while the male managers are generally responsible for interorganizational affairs, including jobs with high emergency responses.

Abstract

Introduction: A study conducted in 31 countries described that over 60% of women and children are exposed to SHS outside. Aims: was to explore the association of secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure on maternal and perinatal outcomes in highland settings in Indonesia. Methods: The retrospective cross-sectional survey was used a random sampling method with 52-items of the questionnaire included information of women and infants. This study conducted with the community health center and all seven public health centers in Tomohon city, North Sulawesi, Indonesia, from May to October 2017. The participants were women who had given birth and were exposed to SHS during pregnancy. Their health condition was measured before and after pregnancy, the gestational week at birth, birth weight and height, and perinatal health conditions of the infants. Result: Among 234 women who completed the questionnaire and were included in the analysis. The 97% of household active smokers had a chance to smoke outside the house. Also, approximately 70% of women (162/234) reported exposure to SHS from active household smokers during pregnancy. Maternal secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure during pregnancy was significantly associated with the risk of reduction of birth weight (p = 0.02). Moreover, infants’ birth weight of mothers exposed to SHS outside the house was significantly less than those exposed to SHS only inside (p = 0.03).  Conclusion: Further research is required to focus on public smoke-free strategies to protect women and children’s health from SHS in Indonesia.
