“…The 2018 Indonesia health research (RISKESDAS) found that 7.8 percent of Indonesian under-5 children had ARIs (Kementerian Kesehatan RI, 2018). The association between indoor tobacco smoke pollution and ARIs among under-5 children has been well established (Jones et al, 2011;Miyahara et al, 2017;Puspitasari & Rahardja, 2021;Zhuge et al, 2020).…”

“…As previously said, housing quality was crucial for children's health (Admasie et al, 2018;Cox et al, 2017;Fakunle et al, 2016;Hassen et al, 2020;Islam et al, 2021;Jones et al, 2011;Miyahara et al, 2017;Nkosi et al, 2019;Puspitasari & Rahardja, 2021;Rehman & Ishaq, 2018;Swope & Hernández, 2019;Tse et al, 2016;Zhuge et al, 2020). According to WHO, city and region should be considered when defining adequate and healthy housing (Singh et al, 2022).…”

“…ARIs have been one of the leading causes of death among children under 5 in Indonesia. As one of the methods of reducing the risk of ARIs, housing interventions focusing on the family unit to maintain behavior without tobacco smoking at home (Barnes et al, 2020;Pratt & Sonney, 2020;Puspitasari & Rahardja, 2021) were quite reasonable. Thus, to achieve KLA in terms of lowering the prevalence of ARIs among children under the age of 5, city/regency, governments should focus on creating housing environments free of indoor tobacco smoke pollution.…”

In 2017, only about 26.68 percent of Indonesian households were smoke-free. Previous research established a relationship between the health of children under five and indoor tobacco smoke pollution. According to Presidential Regulation 25 of 2021, some indicators that should be met for establishing a child-friendly city/ regency (KLA) are the child's rights to health and family environment. Data from the Indonesia Demographic and Health Surveys (IDHS) 2012 and 2017 assessed progress toward smoke-free homes by evaluating the interaction between child age and indoor tobacco smoking at the urban-rural area and regional levels. T-test analysis was used to determine the statistical significance. Findings revealed a higher prevalence of indoor tobacco smoking in rural areas. Over time, the prevalence of indoor tobacco smoking in Indonesian rural areas decreased by 0.84 percent. There was no significant reduction in Kalimantan, Nusa Tenggara, or Maluku-Papua. Furthermore, Sulawesi experienced a significant increase of approximately 4.54 percent. From 2012 to 2017, the prevalence of indoor tobacco smoking was higher in households with children under five, home crowding, poor households, and households with a low education household head. Therefore, interventions should focus on rural areas. City/regency governments in Sulawesi, Kalimantan, Nusa Tenggara, and Maluku-Papua should be more concerned about indoor tobacco smoke pollution. Raising family awareness about the dangers of indoor tobacco smoke pollution could be targeted at households with children under the age of five, overcrowded households, low-income households, and households with a low-education household head.

Globally, diarrheal diseases and acute respiratory infections are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in children under 5 years old. The benefits of exclusive breastfeeding in reducing the risk of gastrointestinal and respiratory infections are well documented. Optimal breastfeeding may potentially save the lives of about 800,000 children in low-income settings. Despite the evidence, around 63% of infants from birth to 6 months are not exclusively breastfed worldwide. We searched the literature published between 2010 and 2022 in Medline, Embase, and Scopus on the association between exclusive breastfeeding and infectious diseases. We selected and reviewed 70 relevant studies. Our findings expand and confirm the positive association between exclusive breastfeeding and reduced risk of a number of gastrointestinal, respiratory, and other infections in 60 out of 70 studies observed in both low- and high-income settings. Several studies analyzing exclusive breastfeeding duration reported that a longer exclusive breastfeeding duration is protective against many infectious diseases. This review also reported a lack of standardized definition for measuring exclusive breastfeeding in many studies. Overall, the results highlight the benefits of exclusive breastfeeding in many studies and suggests reporting exclusive breastfeeding in future studies using a consistent definition to enable better monitoring of exclusive breastfeeding rates.
