Latar belakang: Penyakit berbasis lingkungan di Indonesia masih menjadi permasalahan penting yang harus segera diselesaikan. Sebagian besar masyarakat yang tinggal di Kelurahan Pesawahan berada di tepi laut dengan kondisi sanitasi yang buruk dan memiliki penyakit berbasis lingkungan. Tujuan penelitian untuk diketahui hubungan indeks risiko sanitasi dengan kejadian penyakit berbasis lingkungan di Kelurahan Pesawahan Kota Bandar Lampung.Metode: Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kuantitatif dengan rancangan Cross Sectional dan sampel sebanyak 135 responden. Teknik sampling yang digunakan dengan cara Pusrposive Sampling dengan uji analisis univariat dan bivariat untuk mengetahui hubungan variabel independent variable Indeks Risiko Sanitasi (IRS) sumber air, air limbah, persampahan, genangan dan Perilaku Hidup Bersih) dan variable dependen (kajian penyakit berbasis lingkungan) menggunakan Uji Chi Square.Hasil: Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar responden memiliki IRS sumber air (66,7%) dan genangan air (93,3%) dalam kategori tidak berisiko. Penelitian ini juga menunjukkan bahwa hamper seluruhnya (94,1%) memiliki IRS air limbah domestik, persampahan (93,3%), PHBS (94,8%) dengan kategori berisiko. Dalam 3 bulan terakhir sebagian besar responden pernah mengalami kejadian penyakit berbasis lingkungan (75,6%). Hasil uji bivariat menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan antara IRS air limbah domestic (p value = 0,021; OR=5,632), IRS persampahan (p value = 0,039 OR=4,181), dan IRS PHBS (p value = 0,003; OR=8,534) dengan kejadian penyakit berbasis lingkungan.Simpulan: Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa ada hubungan indeks risiko sanitasi air limbah domestik, persampahan dan perilaku hidup bersih dan sehat dengan kejadian penyakit berbasis lingkungan. Hasil penelitian ini menyarankan agar pemerintah, puskesmas dan masyarakat untuk lebih perhatian dan berkontribusi dalam peningkatan IRS. ABSTRACT Title: The Relationship between the Sanitation Risk Index and the Incidence of Environmental-Based Diseases in the Village of Pesawahan, Bandar Lampung City in 2022Background: Environmental-based diseases in Indonesia are still an important problem that must be resolved immediately. Most of the people living in the rice fields have environmental-based diseases, including Acute Nasopharyngitis (23.62%), Acute Pharyngitis (9.19%), Tuberculosis (6%), Dermatitis (4.33%) and Febris Observation (2 89. The aimed of this research to determine the relationship between the sanitation risk index and the incidence of environmental-based diseases in the Pesawahan Village, Bandar Lampung City.Methods: This research was a quantitative study with a cross sectional design and a sample of 135 respondents. The sampling technique used was Pusposive Sampling with univariate and bivariate analysis tests to determine the relationship between the independent variables (Sanitation Risk Index (IRS) for water sources, wastewater, solid waste, inundation and Clean Living Behavior) and the dependent variable (environment-based disease studies) using Chi Square test..Results: The results showed that most of the respondents had IRS water sources (66.7%) and standing water (93.3%) in the non-risk category. This study also shows that almost all (94.1%) have IRS for domestic wastewater, solid waste (93.3%), PHBS (94.8%) with risk categories. In the last 3 months, most of the respondents have experienced the incidence of environmental-based diseases (75.6%). The results of the bivariate test showed that there was a relationship between domestic wastewater IRS (p value = 0.021; OR = 5,632), sewage IRS (p value = 0.039 OR = 4.181), and IRS PHBS (p value = 0.003; OR = 8.534) with the incidence of environmental disease.Conclusion: The results of the study show that there is a relationship between the risk index of domestic wastewater sanitation, solid waste and clean and healthy living behavior with the incidence of environmental-based diseases. These finding suggested that the government, health centers and the community should pay more attention to and contribute to the improvement of the IRS.

Chikungunya Virus - A Growing Global Public Health Threat

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Chikungunya fever (CHIKF) is a mosquito-borne disease caused by an arbovirus endemic to Africa and Asia. It was initially seen in the early 1950s at the boundary of Tanzania and Mozambique. Due to the ease with which its vectors propagate, the virus has spread to India, Europe, and recently it arrived in the Caribbean, eventually extending into North, Central, and South America. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the most common clinical manifestations are abrupt fever, polyarthralgia, headache, maculopapular rash, myalgia, and nausea/vomiting. Severe joint pain and stiffness have been known to incapacitate some patients from a few days to several months after infection. The re-emergence of the CHIKV and its spread to new places around the globe has encouraged the development of new preventive, diagnostic, and treatment strategies. This chapter will discuss the history of CHIKV and expanding geographic distribution.

“…Culicoides Latreille biting midges (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) are important vectors of pathogens of primarily veterinary importance, including epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV), bluetongue virus (BTV), and African horse sickness virus (AHSV) [ 6 ]. They are also competent vectors of human pathogens in the New World, including Oropouche virus [ 7 ] and the filarial nematode Mansonella ozzardi [ 8 ]. The status of Culicoides as vectors of over 50 pathogens worldwide [ 6 ] necessitates developing optimized monitoring strategies not only in a horizontal plane, but also in vertical space.…”

BackgroundMany important vector arthropods are known to stratify vertically in forest environments, a phenomenon which has important implications for vector-borne disease transmission and vector control. Culicoides Latreille biting midges (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) have been documented using the forest canopy; however, studies of this phenomenon are lacking for many Culicoides species found in great abundance in the state of Florida, USA, some of which have been implicated as suspected vectors of hemorrhagic diseases of white-tailed deer. The present study aimed to determine whether common Culicoides species in Florida stratify vertically and to determine whether strata used by midges corresponded to host use.MethodsTrapping was conducted at a big game preserve in Gadsden County, FL, USA. Over two summer field seasons in 2016 and 2017, CDC miniature light traps were set at two levels, one set at 1.37 m, designated as the ground trap, and a nearby trap in the forest canopy set at 6 m during 2016 and 9 m during 2017. Species abundance, physiological status, and blood-meal sources were analyzed and compared between trap heights.ResultsSpecies abundances for C. haematopotus, C. stellifer and C. venustus were not significantly different between trap heights during the 2016 season; however, canopy traps were found to have significantly higher abundance of C. arboricola, C. biguttatus, C. debilipalpis, C. haematopotus, C. insignis and C. stellifer than ground traps in 2017. Greater numbers of blood-engorged midges were collected in the canopy compared with ground traps during both study years, and 98.6% and 98.7% of blood meals from canopy collected midges were taken from ground-dwelling mammals in 2016 and 2017, respectively.ConclusionsCulicoides species in Florida, including species implicated as vectors of hemorrhagic disease viruses, are found in great abundance in the forest canopy. Many midges are feeding on host species that are known reservoirs of hemorrhagic disease and then moving into the forest canopy, which has implications for the calculation of vectorial capacity. These data contribute valuable ecological information on Culicoides species found in Florida and provide a framework for developing effective vector control strategies to target these species.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s13071-018-3080-5) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
