Introduction: According to the World Health Organization, there are 2.3 million breast cancer diagnoses and globally 685,000 breast cancer mortality rates. In 2020 women who have had problems with breast cancer are 7.8 million annually worldwide. A study by the Global International Agency for Research of Cancer (2018) reported that the highest number of breast cancer cases was 674,693, with 25.5% and a mortality rate of 310.577 or 13.8%. And continues to be published by the Global Cancer Observatory (2019), showing that the incidence of breast cancer is 136.2% of the population, and the highest rate of breast cancer occurs in women with 42.1%, followed by population mortality. Objective: To find out how to detect breast cancer in adolescent girls in Covalima City, Timor Leste. Method: This study used quantitative and quantitative methods together, specifically a cross-sectional study of adolescent girls in the municipality of Covalima where interviews with young girls continued their studies in secondary schools. Results: Based on the results of research conducted by young women in high schools in the city, the understanding of describing early detection of breast cancer is 49%, and most young women know information about breast cancer even though the information they have is accessed or someone shares about breast cancer. Conclusion: Students have sufficient experience in how to detect breast cancer early and prevent breast cancer
Introduction: Hypertension is a serious problem in public health programs that affects individual health, and can affect the body and kill people. High blood pressure, also called hypertension, is blood pressure that is higher than normal. Blood pressure changes throughout the day based on your activity. Having a blood pressure measurement consistently above normal can lead to a diagnosis of high blood pressure or hypertension. Hypertension is known as a killer disease and a heterogeneous group of diseases. The ministry of health of timor leste, stated that the incidence of hypertension was 41.66% and cases of death were 27% of hospitalized patients. Method: this study used quantitative and quantitative methods together, in particular a prospective population study in the municipality of baucau where interviews with the head of the family or someone else takes the responsibility. Results and discussion: the results of data analysis using pearson product moment with p-value 0.000 <0.05 is a stress factor that affects the cause of hypertension. Also salt consumption is 0.741 between the interval coefficients 0.60 - 0.799 classified as severe hypertension). Other tests also showed that alcohol consumption had an effect on the incidence of hypertension because the p-value was 0.466 > 0.05. Conclusion: based on the results of data analysis, stress factors, salt and alcohol consumption have an effect on the incidence of hypertension in the people of baucau city, timor leste
Background: For people who get a kind of disease, the medic diagnosis of Hypertension is when their blood pressure is >140/90 mmHg. Those factors that influence added blood pressure are lifestyles, such as smoking, salt intake, obesity, physical activity and stress, genetic factor, inadequate vasoconstriction modulator, vasodilatation, renin system, angiotensin, and aldosterone. The objective of this research is to analyze the “Relationship between stress level with recurrence of Hypertension disease to a patient aged 40-60 years old in Centro Saúde Comunitária Nível II Lospalos, in 2022 years”. Methods: This research uses the quantitative method and cross-sectional approximation conducted in Centro Saúde Comunitária Nível II Lospalos in 2022. The population to be sampled is Hypertension patients aged 40-60 years old, and the sampling result is defined as 91. For technique data collection, the researcher uses a questionnaire. Analyze data technique uses the chi quadrat statistic test. Results: The result of analyzing Chi-Square defined by this research is a significate value of 0.016<0.05 significate unacceptable Ho, and also results by Shi-Square Linear-by-Linear Association of statistic 0.399 meaning less relationship between stress level with recurrence of Hypertension disease to the patient with aged 40-60 years old. The results of Chi-Square have a relationship between stress level and recurrence of Hypertension disease to patients aged 40-60 years old. Conclusion: Stress level is the main risk of recurrence of hypertension. When stress to the patient's recurrence of Hypertension will occur another complication, hypertension is also a kind of disease that is very dangerous to distribute and cause mortality. Hypertension sometimes, other people call silence killer.
Introduction: COVID-19 is an acute, severe respiratory syndrome caused by the SARS II-Cov-19; corona virus transmitted between people that spread from positive patients of covid-1 virus through contact with droplets. Date from the Health Service Municipality of Lautem, total positive COVID-19 cases from 22nd of March 2020 until December of 2021 was 184 cases of morbidity and 5 cases of mortality. Objective: to describe the level of community’s knowledge about efforts to prevent the transmission of COVID-19 and to identify the level of knowledge (know, understand and apply) and to know the relationship between the level of knowledge of the community in the Nanacuro sub-village, Municipality of Lautem. Method: descriptive quantitative with cross-sectional aproximation using non probability sample with type accidental sampling and use questionnaires instrument. Results: Based on the results of the descriptive analysis the level of community’s knowledge about efforts to prevent the transmission of COVID-19 showed level of good knowledge with 41.3%, sufficient knowledge with 46.8% and less knowledge with 11.9%. In statistical test Rankpearman correlation coefficient value or Pearson (p) = 0.000 means that less than the value 0.05 and the coefficient value correlated with the value 0.680. Conclusion: The level of knowledge (know, understanding and application) of the community on efforts to prevent the transmission of COVID-19 majority is sufficient 46.8%, unless there is a strong relationship between the level of knowledge with efforts to prevent the transmission of COVID-19.
