“…The most prevalent NGO ‘outside’ strategy targeting commercial actors was monitoring and reporting on practises harmful to health – identified in 56 studies [ 21 , 22 , 26 – 28 , 31 , 33 , 38 , 40 , 42 – 45 , 47 – 49 , 52 – 54 , 58 , 67 , 72 , 73 , 75 , 78 , 81 , 83 – 106 ]. NGO monitoring included the development of ‘counter accounts’ to challenge industry claims and provide alternative evidence on impacts to health [ 31 , 33 , 43 , 47 , 54 , 72 , 78 , 83 , 92 – 94 ]. NGOs in Nigeria, for example, developed the Oil Spill Monitor (OSP) to document oil pollution, impacts, and extractive industry remediation [ 43 , 95 ].…”

Background Public health scholarship has uncovered a wide range of strategies used by industry actors to promote their products and influence government regulation. Less is known about the strategies used by non-government organisations to attempt to influence commercial practices. This narrative review applies a political science typology to identify a suite of ‘inside’ and ‘outside’ strategies used by NGOs to attempt to influence the commercial determinants of health. Methods We conducted a systematic search in Web of Science, ProQuest and Scopus. Articles were eligible for inclusion if they comprised an empirical study, explicitly sought to examine ‘NGOs’, were in English, and identified at least one NGO strategy aimed at commercial and/or government policy and practice. Results One hundred forty-four studies met the inclusion criteria. Eight industry sectors were identified: extractive, tobacco, food, alcohol, pharmaceuticals, weapons, textiles and asbestos, and a small number of general studies. We identified 18 types of NGO strategies, categorised according to the target (i.e. commercial actor or government actor) and type of interaction with the target (i.e. inside or outside). Of these, five NGO ‘inside’ strategies targeted commercial actors directly: 1) participation in partnerships and multistakeholder initiatives; 2) private meetings and roundtables; 3) engaging with company AGMs and shareholders; 4) collaborations other than partnerships; and 5) litigation. ‘Outside’ strategies targeting commercial actors through the mobilisation of public opinion included 1) monitoring and reporting; 2) protests at industry sites; 3) boycotts; 4) directly engaging the public; and 5) creative use of alternative spaces. Four NGO ‘inside’ strategies directly targeting government actors included: 1) lobbying; 2) drafting legislation, policies and standards; 3) providing technical support and training; and 4) litigation. NGO ‘outside’ strategies targeting government included 1) protests and public campaigns; 2) monitoring and reporting; 3) forum shifting; and 4) proposing and initiating alternative solutions. We identified three types of NGO impact: substantive, procedural, and normative. Conclusion The analysis presents a matrix of NGO strategies used to target commercial and government actors across a range of industry sectors. This framework can be used to guide examination of which NGO strategies are effective and appropriate, and which conditions enable NGO influence.

“…Currently, smokers in Indonesia are estimated at more than 33% [ 5 ]. Indonesian urban communities are estimated to breathe polluted air daily with PAH content equivalent to PAH content in seven cigarettes, even though they are not active smokers [ 6 ]. The content of PAH compounds in smokeless tobacco ranges from 0.1–90 ng/g [ 7 , 8 ], while PAH has been found in a high concentration in tobacco cigarettes (40–100 ng per cigarette) [ 9 , 10 , 11 ].…”

“…More people, including children and pregnant women, are exposed to carcinogenic compounds, as the number of smokers and PAH pollutants in the air rises with the growing number of motor vehicles. This condition has increased the incidence of cancer in Indonesia [ 6 , 27 ].…”

Background: Traditionally, Curcuma xanthorriza (CX), black cumin seed (BC), and honey have been used by the Indonesian people as medicinal ingredients to treat various health symptoms. CX extracts and BC have been proven in the laboratory as chemopreventive agents, antioxidants, and immunomodulators. In this study, we developed CX extract, BC oil, and honey into herbal honey preparations (CXBCH) and hypothesized that the preparations show chemopreventive activity. The purpose of the study was to determine the CXBCH potential as chemopreventive, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory. Method: In this experimental laboratory research, antioxidant, immunomodulatory, and cytotoxic activities were tested on human mammary cancer cell lines (T47D cells) while the chemopreventive activity of the CXBCH preparations on Sprague Dawley (SD) rats induced with dimethylbenzene(a)anthracene (DMBA). Results: CXBCH preparations demonstrated immunomodulatory, antioxidant, and cytotoxic activities in T47D, Hela, and HTB-183 cells and in DMBA-induced SD rats, as the preparations inhibited tumor nodule formation, increased the number of CD4, CD8 and CD4CD25 cells, and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) activity, and decreased serum NO levels. Conclusions: CXBCH preparations display chemopreventive, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory properties.

“…Previous studies have shown the effectiveness of PHW on increasing intentions to quit, quit attempts, and smoking cessation, including among adolescence (Brewer et al 2016;Blanton et al, 2014;Fong et al 2009;Gendall et al 2018;Hidayah et al, 2019;Li et al 2015;Mannocci et al, 2019;Ratih and Susanna, 2018), or even measuring on the smoker's eye movement (Park et al, 2020). Studies of the use of PHW as an effort to inform about the harmful effects of smoking is also a concern of Indonesian researchers (e.g., Alkaff et al, 2020;Bigwanto, and Soerojo, 2020;Crosby et al, 2019;Fauzi et al, 2017;).…”
