Pendahuluan: Tahun 2019 di Kab. Flores timur pada balita yang berusia 6-24 bulan dengan jumlah balita yang diukur sebanyak 4869, jumlah normal 3561 , jumlah stunting 1334 dengan persentase 27,25%. Dan pada balita yang berusia 6-24 bulan jumlah Stunting 1456 dengan persentase 25,52% dari jumlah balita yang diukur 5689.Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengetahui hubungan pengetahuan gizi dan sikap Ibu tentang pola asuh makanan bergizi dengan kejadian stunting. Metode: Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah deskriptif analitik kualitatif dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Populasi pada penelitian ini adalah balita yang berusia 6-24 bulan sebesar 5689. Besaran sampel yang didapatkan sebesar 373 menggunakan rumus proposional rendom sampling, pengambilan sampel pada penelitian ini menggunakan metode Accidental Sampling. Teknik analisis yang digunakan adalah Chi square dan regresi logistik ganda. Hasil dan Pembahasan: Hasil penelitian menunjukkan variabel yang berhubungan dengan kejadian stunting adalah pengetahuan ayah (P value= 0,000; OR=2,473), pengetahuan ibu (P value=0,002; OR=1,515), sikap (P value=0,000; OR=3,685), budaya (P value=0,006; OR=1,667). Variabel yang paling dominan dengan kejadian stunting pada balita di Kab. Flores Timur adalah pengetahuan ayah dengan p = 0,000 ( p value > 0,05) dan sikap ibu dengan p = 0,000 (p value > 0,05). Kesimpulan: Disarankan kepada dinas kesehatan untuk memberikan pendidikan kesehatan kepada masyarakat terutama kepada ibu hamil, menyusui, supaya stunting dapat dicegah sejak dini.
BACKGROUND: The city of Bandung is an endemic area of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). Increased cases of DHF in the area have influenced the mortality rate. The number of deaths due to DHF in 2019 was 14 people. AIM: This study aims to analyze the epidemiological determinants and to observe the trend of analysis to project DHF cases. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study used a case-control design. The case population is those who have DFH, while the control population is those who do not have DHF. There were 510 respondents included in this study. Samples were taken using a purposive sampling technique. Epidemiological determinants were analyzed using the Chi-square test and logistic regression, while the trend of the disease was analyzed using exponential smooth analysis. RESULTS: The result of this study showed that education (p = 0.036), the presence of mosquito larvae (p = 0.000), container materials (p = 0.002), water containers (p = 0.025), mosquito nets (p = 0.010), the presence of solid waste (p = 0.002), mosquito repellent plants (p = 0.041), and mobility (0.004). The most dominant epidemiological determinant was the presence of mosquito larvae (odds ratio = 3.2). The predictive index of DHF can predict people who are sick with DHF among the sick population is 68.6%. CONCLUSION: This study concluded that the significant epidemiological determinants are education, the presence of mosquito larvae, container materials, water containers, mosquito nets, the presence of solid waste, and mosquito repellent plants. Among those determinants, the presence of mosquito larvae is the most dominant factor. This study also concluded that there will be an increase in DFH cases over the next 5 years. Hence, it is important to increase larvae free index by empowering Kader Juru Pemantau Jentik (JUMANTIK) in Bandung and conducting epidemiological surveillance.
Vaccines have recently been developed as a treatment for infectious disorders such as Covid-19. Several Covid-19 preventive vaccines are currently being developed, however public acceptance of the Covid-19 vaccine is uncertain. The purpose of this study is to determine the factors that influence community willingness to undergo Covid-19 immunisation. Using snowball sampling procedures, a web-based cross-sectional survey was undertaken from May 16 to 22, 2021. A semi-structured validated questionnaire covering details about characteristics, perceptions, information, and readiness to get Covid-19 vaccine was used as a research instrument. Data from 288 individuals were analysed using univariate, bivariate, and multivariate methods.Most of the respondents were female (62.8%), aged 21-30 years (27.4%), high school education (40.3%), private employees (38.2%), and Muslim (65.6%). Most believe the safety and effectiveness of the Covid-19 vaccine (75.0%), declared ineffective (27.8%), declared unsafe (35.8%). Most respondents received information from television (74.7%), and government websites (62.2%). Age (p=0.0005), education level (p=0.0005), employment (p=0.043), and religion (p=0.001) are factors that influence people's desire to take immunizations. Education is a determinant of people's willingness to undergo Covid-19 immunisation (p=0.0005 and OR=3.533). The majority of respondents claimed that the Covid-19 vaccine is safe and effective, however the number of respondents wanting to obtain Covid-19 immunisation remains low. Education is a determinant of the public's protective willingness to take Covid-19 immunisation. Covid-19 vaccinations are aimed against those aged 40 and under. In a low-educated population, health promotion initiatives, such as health education sessions, should be held.
Background: This hypertension problem is a health challenge in Indonesia. The tendency to increase the prevalence of hypertension in the productive age group is one of them caused by the level of busyness and an unhealthy lifestyle, thus increasing the risk of hypertension in the productive age group. Aim: The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between physical activity and smoking with hypertension incidence in productive age. Method:The type of research used is quantitative with case control research design. The population in this study is all patients who visit and treat to the general poly recorded in the report register at the Neglasari Health Center. The sample in this study was 400 respondents. The sample was taken using a simple random technique. The instruments used are check sheets and questionnaires. Data analyzed using chi square test. Results:The results of the study showed that factors that were proven to be related to the incidence of hypertension were physical activity (p=0.000), smoking (p=0.000). Conclusion:A factor that has been shown to be associated with the incidence of hypertension is physical activity and smoking. It is recommended to health workers to provide education to the community, especially the productive age about hypertension prevention.
