The study used a cross-sectional survey of a group of mothers who gave birth in Makassar. The data on mothers during pregnancy was the maternal history recorded in the mother and Child Health Book (KIA). And the data on the birth weight of the baby was also from the KIA book with the support of secondary data from the Community Health Center and Midwife. The results showed that 41.7% of the low-birth-weight babies had mothers who experienced underweight during pregnancy, 83.3% of the low-birth-weight babies had mothers who experienced Anemia during pregnancy, and 66.7% of the low-birth-weight babies had mothers who experienced hypertension during pregnancy. There was a significant and close relationship between the mother's BMI, Hemoglobin levels, and Blood Pressure to the baby's birth weight. There was a meaningful relationship between the mother's Body Mass Index, Anemia, and Hypertension during pregnancy to low birth weight. Therefore, it is important to maintain a good quality of nutrition for mothers both before and during pregnancy, following Islamic teachings that Allah SWT has decreed for every pregnant woman a thousand good deeds every day and erases a thousand misdeeds as motivation to remain strong throughout the pregnancy process.

Abstract

The presence of the heavy metal lead (Pb), which accumulates in water and sediment, will enter into the life of organisms which can have a toxic effect on the organisms in it. This study aimed to analyze the health risks of consuming Mujair fish (Oreochromis Mossambicus) which contains the heavy metal Pb in the river flow of Soyoan Village, Ratatotok District, Southeast Minahasa Regency. The research method was descriptive with an environmental health risk analysis (ARKL) approach. Determination of lead levels in fish, water, and sediments used the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer method with a graphite furnace. The results showed that the average Pb in Mujair fish was 0.23 mg/kg, the average Pb in water was 1.48 mg/liter, and the average in sediment was 52.98 mg/kg. Pb concentrations in aquatic fish and sediments had exceeded the threshold. The Risk Quotion (RQ) value wasstill below 1 (RQ < 1), meaning that Mujair fish (Oreochromis Mossambicus) in the Soyoan river was still safe for consumption. The ECR value ≤ 10-4 indicated that making risk management was not something that needs to be prioritized. However, the presence of high concentrations was an indicator so that the rate of intake and frequency of exposure can be reduced. In Islamic teachings, it has been explained that damage to the environment due to human actions has an adverse effect on the biota and threatens the surrounding community's health.

The beliefs and traditions of ethnic Bajo divers were related to safety and prevention. Decompression was before diving, asking for safety from the Almighty Creator by saying greetings and basmalah and praying before diving, which was a form of permission to The Guardian of the Sea. The Personal Protective Equipment that must be used were glasses (wooden/traditional glasses or glasses Ventara/modern). Decompression was understood as a disease cold with symptoms of cramps in the lower limbs obtained the result of diving for a long time at a certain depth to find seawater that was yellow like oil and very cold. Bajo tribe divers perform decompression treatment based on local wisdom and instill occupational health and safety behaviors and convince themselves by praying and saying basmallah before diving.

Abstract

Transgender is a group with a high risk of HIV AIDS transmission due to the large number of base areas for transgender to conduct sexual transactions with sex partners. Changing behavior among transgender sex workers is still complicated because of the low use of condoms among transgender women. The study aimed to analyze the relationship between perceptions of vulnerability to contracting HIV with the consistency of using condoms among transgender sex workers to prevent HIV AIDS in the city of Makassar. This type of research was mixed methods research with a quantitative and qualitative approach using a sequential explanatory design (combination model). The quantitative data collection technique used a cross-sectional research design. The qualitative data used in-depth interviews with a research design using case studies to strengthen the quantitative results obtained from HIV-positive transgender sex workers. The number of respondents in this study was 60 people. The results showed a relationship between perceived vulnerability to contracting HIV and the consistency of condom use among transgender sex workers. Islam explicitly states that homosexual and lesbian behavior is a form of deviant sexual behavior contrary to human nature. Sex in Islam is not just to satisfy lust but has an important goal regarding the continuity of life, namely continuing offspring/ reproduction so that same-sex relations are unlikely to produce offspring, so this is not in line with the purpose of sex in Islam.

Abstract

Pregnancy-related anemia has been linked to many undesirable consequences for both mothers and their children. Prevention of anemia in pregnant women can be supported through health promotion media such as SMS-gateway. This study was focused on knowing the effect of SMS gateway knowledge about foods high in iron on intake of foods high in iron in anemic pregnant women. The study was used a double-blind randomized controlled trial to analyze the effect of SMS intervention on iron-rich food on 68 anemic pregnant women at seven health centers in Makassar City. The intervention applied the software Gili SMS® to deliver SMS interventions. The intervention was given on days 3, 10, 17, and 24 of the study, and food recalls were carried out on days 0 and 28 of the study using the 24-hour food recall method. We found that there was no significant difference on intake of iron but a significant difference between intake of energy and carbohydrate between control and intervention group after SMS gateway intervention. By the recommendations in one of the verses in the Qur'an, pregnant women are encouraged to choose and consume good food such as vegetable and animal protein produced by plants and animals. Foods are suitable for the body and provide all the nutrients needed for the body's normal functioning. We found no increased of iron intake after SMS intervention in pregnant women with anemia.
