Background: Indonesia is in the second place with the highest burden of tuberculosis (TB) in the world. Childhood is a period of rapid growth that requires efforts to maintain children's health. At the time the child still has a low immune system making it vulnerable to a disease including TB. The problem of TB in children requires better attention in child TB control programs. This study aimed to analyze the contextual influence of villages on the incidence of TB in children. Subjects and Method: This was a case-control study conducted in 25 villages in Surakarta, Central Java, from August to September 2019. A sample of 200 children aged 0 to 18 years was selected by fixed disease sampling. The dependent variable was the incidence of TB in children. The independent variables were birth weight, BCG immunization, exclusive breastfeeding, nutritional status, parental income, home sanitation, exposure to cigarette smoke, family history of TB, and contextual effect of village. Data on TB were obtained from medical record in Surakarta community health center. The other data was collected by questionnaire. The data was analyzed by multilevel multiple logistic regression with Stata 13. Results: The risk of TB in children increased poor house sanitation

Introduction: ARI (Acute Respiratory Infection) is one of the main causes of death among children under five in many countries worldwide. In Indonesia, 10% of ARI cases occur in East Nusa Tenggara, which is the highest prevalence of ARI in this country, with 90% of them leading to under-five mortality. There are various factors that cause the prevalence of ARI. In East Nusa Tenggara itself, environmental factors are suspected to be the risk factors for this disease. This study aims to analyse the association between environmental factors and the incidence of ARI among children under five years old in East Nusa Tenggara. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted by analysing secondary data sets obtained from DHS, with a total of 337 subjects examined in this study. Multivariate logistic regression was applied to investigate the association between ARI and various environmental factors. Results: This study found that the prevalence of ARI among children under five years old in East Nusa Tenggara was 9.04% of all subjects. ARI was significantly associated with the types of residence (OR 2.2, 95%CI 1.1-4.3) and passive smoking status (OR 4.7, 95%CI 1.8-12.4) as its risk factors. In addition, there was strong association between ARI and the types of roof (OR 3.3, 95%CI 1.3-8.9) as its protective factor. Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, it can be concluded that the incidence of ARI in children under five years old was closely associated with residential area, smoke exposure, and roof materials.
