Abstract

Background: High maternal morbidity and mortality are brought on by the worldwide public health issue of iron and folic acid deficient anemia. The risk to pregnant women’s and their unborn children’s health is reduced when they correctly get and take iron and folic acid supplements. However, people’s inability to adhere to the supplement frequently results in an immense burden. Objective: This analysis focused on describing the field of adherence to iron among pregnant mothers with anemia using bibliometric analysis of the literature from 1981 to 2022 and on analyzing the scientific trends. Methods: We used Scopus as the search engine, using the keywords: Adherence OR Compliance AND Pregnancy OR Pregnant women AND Iron OR Ferrous AND anemia. English journal articles from journals were selected. Results: We retrieved 360 documents during 1981-2022. The result showed trends topics mentioned, mostly pregnancy, anemia, and iron supplementation. The most published articles were from Australia and USA, with Quartal 1 source as the most relevant journal. Conclusion: Although the quantity of publications has increased regularly, it remains below 40 each year. The topic intervention or experimental study, or adherence were still low. Some countries with significantly increased anemia in the last ten years, with the number of publications and collaboration studies remaining high. The modest number indicates that researchers still have many chances to develop better, more productive techniques to enhance adherence and decrease anemia.

Abstract

Background: Behavior change communication (BCC) is a validated health communication technique for influencing changes in knowledge and behaviors. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the impact of BCC on the knowledge and practice of the Healthy Living Movement (HLM) or called Gerakan Masyarakat Hidup Sehat (Germas). Methods: This was a mixed-methods study. A single group pre-posttest design was conducted in Yogyakarta and Central Java, Indonesia, from May to October 2019. Participants are all first-year students from selected schools, as many as 713 persons. The intervention was the BCC strategy, while the outcomes were knowledge and behavior. The BCC intervention was carried out through several stages, from need assessment, designing an educational intervention, the intervention with pre-and post-test, evaluation, and networking. Specifically, the educational intervention was conducted 60 minutes weekly for three weeks. The contents of HLM included a balanced diet, physical activity, and the relationship between health and academic achievement. The knowledge and practice scores were measured using a structured questionnaire before and after the BCC intervention. STATA 13 was used to calculate the mean difference (MD) using a t-test. To evaluate the BCC intervention, qualitative in-depth interviews were used, and data were analyzed thematically. Results: BCC intervention significantly increased knowledge and behavior on a balanced diet, physical activity, and the relationship between health and academic achievement (p <0.05). Internal social norms were carried out through the HLM campaign and declarations, as well as assigning HLM ambassadors, while advocacy by establishing networking between universities, schools, and public health centers strengthened the sustainability program. Conclusion: BCC intervention improves knowledge and behavior among adolescents. Moreover, the environment is crucial to support and maintaining the program.

Abstract

Background: Pesticides can poison users if they do not follow pesticide use standards. This is because the active substances in these pesticide products can cause acute pain. Objective: The study aimed to identify the factors of safe behavior in using pesticides in farmers. Methods: This study employed a scoping review method. The literature search was carried out on the indexed databases of Google Scholar, Science Direct, Scopus, PubMed, Free Medical Journals, and ProQuest in English. There were 450 research articles, and 15 met the inclusion criteria. From the 15 journals, information was collected from the publication year 2015-2021, article titles, design, population, interventions, and results. Relevant study articles related to the topics were qualitatively analyzed using NVIVO-12 Plus. Results: The analysis showed that knowledge, safe behavior of using pesticides, farmers' education, and personal protective equipment are the dominant factors influencing the safe behavior of using pesticides on farmers. Conclusion: Farmers who do not comply with safe behavior will have a higher health risk because of the toxicity of pesticides that can be directly inhaled and enter through the pores of the farmers’ skin.

Abstract

Background: Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is an environmental factor contributing to the death rate. However, few studies have demonstrated the association between PM2.5 and the under-five mortality rate. Objective: To determine the correlation between PM2.5 and under-five children mortality in Indonesia. Methods: A secondary data analysis of the WHO Global Health Observatory on Environmental Pollution and Children Mortality during 2012-2016 was conducted. The environmental pollution was measured by PM2.5 levels (μg/m3) in rural, urban, and both areas. Mortality data were categorized by specific causes—meningitis/encephalitis, acute lower respiratory infection, diarrhoeal diseases, tetanus, prematurity, birth asphyxia, and congenital anomalies. Data were analyzed using Mann-Whitney and Spearman correlations. Results: The PM2.5 total concentration in urban areas was greater than in rural areas for four years (18.4±1.19 vs. 15.4±1.1, p = 0.016). Prematurity, acute lower respiratory infection, and birth asphyxia were the leading causes of under-five mortality. The PM2.5concentration in urban and rural areas was significantly associated with an acute lower respiratory infection, tetanus, prematurity, birth asphyxia, and congenital anomalies (p <0.05). Additionally, the PM2.5 concentration was negatively correlated with tetanus, prematurity, birth asphyxia, and congenital anomalies (p <0.001; r = -0.8, -0.8, -0.82, -0.83, respectively). Conclusion: PM2.5 air pollution was correlated with tetanus, prematurity, birth asphyxia, and congenital anomalies from 2012-2016 in Indonesia. Further action is needed to handle the sources of air pollution contamination to preventing under-five mortality in the community.

Abstract

Background: The prevalence of coronary heart disease continues to increase globally, and it is important to understand the factors associated with it. Objective: This study aimed to explore the association between fat and fiber intake with cholesterol levels in patients with coronary heart disease at the Outpatient BLUD Bahteramas General Hospital, Southeast Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. Methods: A cross-sectional study design was employed in this study. Data were collected from 55 patients with coronary heart disease using a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire and laboratory data on total cholesterol and HDL levels. Results: There was no significant association between fat and fiber intake with cholesterol level (p >0.05). Conclusion: No significant association was found between fat and fiber intake with cholesterol levels in patients with coronary heart disease. However, other factors may be contributing to the high cholesterol among these patients. Thus, future research is needed and considers using larger sample sizes to confirm the results. In the meantime, it is crucial to continue providing nutrition consultations that emphasize the importance of a balanced diet for patients with coronary heart disease.
