Introduction: The COVID-19 outbreak first occurred in China and has developed throughout the world, including Indonesia. The Indonesian government reports that up to May 22, 2020 there have been 21,430 confirmed cases. The purpose of this study is to describe the epidemiology, clinical symptoms and comorbidities of COVID-19 as well as the various government interventions to reduce the rate of incidence. Methodology: A retrospective cohort study was designed. The population in this study is based data from the official Indonesian government website run by the Task Force for the Acceleration of Handling COVID-19. The sample was observed b March 2 to April 24, 2020. The total sample included 8,211 cases of patients diagnosed with COVID-19, among these 1,002 recovered and 689 died. Data analysis used percentages from various recorded epidemiological variables. Results: The results showed that COVID-19 epidemiological features were mostly observed in men (56.5%) and patients of productive age (31-59 of age) by 57.5%; most deaths were recorded in patients aged > 60 years (43.6%). The most recurrent clinical symptom was cough (77.8%), the most recurrent comorbidity was hypertension (52.4%), and the province with the highest COVID-19 incidence was DKI Jakarta (34.3%). Conclusions: The combination of common sources and propagated source was observed during the COVID-19 outbreak in Indonesia. Special attention should be given to protecting vulnerable populations such as children, health care providers, and the elderly. The community is expected to participate in preventing the transmission of COVID-19 by complying with health protocols.
Stunting still becomes a problem for Indonesian today. There are many risk factors which cause stunting, whether in short and long term effect. It can be overcome by a national nutrition awareness movement which involves multiple sectors which addresses to pregnant/childbirth women, toddlers, school-age children, teenagers and young adults and family empowerment.
White guava is a plant that can grow easily in Indonesia. As a source of vitamin C, white guava leaves have been used as antidiarrheal drugs. Some studies state that white guava leaves contain antioxidants. Aside from having a selling value, white guava leaves are also used as raw materials for facial cosmetics, namely as raw materials for gel. Flavonoids are a large family of plant secondary metabolites that have various and amazing biological functions, including as antioxidants. The study aims to determine the gel preparation formulation of the white guava leaf extract (Psidium guajava L.) as a good antioxidant and the characteristics of the preparation. To extract the active substance in simplicia, maceration is used by using ethanol extract processes. The gel making uses a CMC-Na base. Formulation I uses a concentration of CMC-Na 0.1 gram. Formulation II uses a concentration of CMC-Na 0.3 grams. Formulation III uses a concentration CMC-Na 0.6 gram. The main raw material is 0.2 grams of white guava leaf ethanol extract for each formulation. The maceration process uses 70% ethanol. 250 grams of white guava leaves are used. The yield obtained was 13.92%. The gel product was analyzed organoleptic test, pH test, dispersion test, homogeneity test, and adhesion test. The results showed that the CMC-Na 0.1-grams, 0.3 grams CMC-Na, and 0.6-grams CMC-Na had a distinctive odor of white guava leaves, brownish color, and thick concentration. The gelling product is homogeneous and pH of 6. The formulations under CMC-Na 0.6 grams have good dispersibility. All formulations have good adhesion. The adhesion is more than 4 seconds. The conclusions are the formulation with CMC-Na 0.6 grams fulfills the requirements for topical gel preparation.
Scabies is a contagious skin disease. Sarcoptes scabiei is a scabies mite that causes inflammation, an itchy reaction and a rash on the skin. To find out the factors which cause scabies in students at Nurul Islam Islamic Boarding School in Karangjati Village, Sampang Cilacap. The type of this research was an analytic observation method with a case-control approach. The sampling technique in this research was the total sampling technique, with 25 samples for case samples (scabies) and 35 samples for case-control samples (nonscabies). The data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test with Odd ratios and logistic regression. Chi-square test results showed a relationship between knowledge (p = 0.017; OR = 6.417), attitude (p = 0.002; OR = 6,000), personal hygiene (p = 0.029; OR = 8,500), economic status (p = 0.015; OR = 9,600), and gender (p = 0.004; OR = 4,929) with the occurrence of scabies at Nurul Islam Islamic Boarding School in Karangjati Village. Logistic regression analysis showed that attitude was the most dominant variable related to the occurrence of scabies (p = 0.008 ExpB = 6.835). There is a relationship between knowledge, attitudes, personal hygiene, economic status and gender in students with the occurrence of scabies at Nurul Islam Islamic Boarding School in Karangjati Village. The most dominant factor with the incidence of scabies is the attitude of students.
Abstrak Background: Dysmenorrhea is menstruation accompanied by pain and physical causes such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and in some cases it can also disrupt daily activity. Students who experience dysmenorrhea will be disrupted during learning activities because it is an activity that involves both physical work and the brain. Furthermore, it is found recently that the pain during menstruation is not only felt in the lower abdomen, but it reaches the back. Objective: To determine the effect of the child and animal poses yoga on the changes of the pain scale in dysmenorrhea in students of the Faculty of Health Science, Universitas Muhammadiyah Purwokerto. Method: This study used a quasi-experimental design which was a non-equivalent control group pre-test-post test. Samples were collected by means of purposive sampling with a total of 80. Forty female students were given interventions of yoga child and animal poses and there were 40 control groups. In addition, a paired sample t-test was used in the statistical test. Results: There was a change of 1.62 in pain in the intervention group scale. On the other hand, there was a change in the pain scale of 0.06 in the control group. Statistical test results showed the value of p = 0.0001. Conclusion: The movement of yoga child and animal poses have an effect on the dysmenorrhea pain scale since it can decrease the pain caused by dysmenorrhea.Keywords :Child and animal poses yoga, Dysmenorrhea, Pain scale
