<![CDATA[Oxidative stress is a condition where the imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants in the body. Vitamins A, C, and E are antioxidants that can inhibit the activity of antioxidant compounds so that these levels become balanced. The research purpose is to know the difference in intake of antioxidants in the diet and the intake effect on lung function in mason who suffer from respiratory and who do not suffer from respiratory. The study design was observational methods Retrospective with purposive and consecutive sampling. Measured variables such as vitamin A, C, and E to Recall 24h and conditions of lung function. Namely % FEV1 and FVC% with a handheld spirometer. The study sample consisted of 79 people who suffer from respiratory and 79 without respiratory distress. The results showed no significant difference between antioxidant intake in the group of interference and without interference (p=0.05). Artifacts relationship between antioxidant intake with lung function (sig.0,05). Intake of vitamin A on lung function has a value of p = 0.05, which means associated with lung function but are very weak correlation (correlation coefficient value -0.036) while vitamin C and E have a value of p=1.000, which means there is a relationship and is a very weak correlation (correlation coefficient value of -0.036). The results showed no significant difference between antioxidant intake in the group of interference and without interference (p = 0.05). Artifacts relationship between antioxidant intake with lung function (sig. 0,05). Intake of vitamin A on lung function has a value of p=0.05, which means associated with lung function but are very weak correlation (correlation coefficient value -0.036) while vitamin C and E have a value of p = 1.00, which means there is a relationship and is a very weak correlation (correlation coefficient value of -0.036). The results showed no significant difference between antioxidant intake in the group of interference and without interference (p=0.05).

<![CDATA[Family planning will affect the mother’s ability in parenting which will affect the children’s growth and development. This study aims to determine the relationship between family planning and the practice of child feeding (PCF). The study used Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey 2017 data with a cross-sectional approach. Family planning is measured by variables age at first marriage, the distance between births, parity, number of children under five, and pregnancy desired. The PCF is based on the variable composite of Early Initiation of Breastfeeding, Exclusive Breastfeeding, Infant and Child Feeding, and Consumption of food sources of vitamin A. The sample size is 97 children aged 6-23 months. Data analysis using multivariate logistic regression. The study results that almost part of the mother did not PCF well (45.4%). Most (69.1%) mothers were not good at family planning. Family planning related to poor PCF was age at first marriage less than 18 years (p = 0.003) primiparous parity (p = 0.017), 2-5 years birth spacing (p = 0.033) and the number of children under five (p = 0.025). There need to be more educational efforts, outreach and family planning movements so that people, especially teenagers, understand the importance of family planning.]]>

<![CDATA[Public places or facilities are places that can be the locus of the spread of Covid-19. Previous research shows that the application of health protocols in public places is still low in the discipline. The purpose of this study is to find out how the availability of infrastructure impacts the behavior of preventing Covid-19 in public places. This research is a cross-sectional study, with the independent variable being the availability of infrastructure in public places and the dependent variable being the behavior of preventing Covid-19. It took time in 2021. Public places, include malls/shopping centers, traditional markets, places of worship, and public service places. The sample is 264 people with incidental sampling techniques. Data collection was through the distribution of online questionnaires. Data were analyzed by univariate and bivariate with the Chi-Square test (α 0.05). There is a relationship between the availability of infrastructure and behavior in preventing Covid-19 in public places. Public Places with adequate infrastructure are more supportive of the implementation of the behavior of Covid-19 prevention. The government, community leaders, and public place managers must monitor the availability of infrastructure to prevent the spread of Covid-19. There needs to be special attention to the implementation of Covid-19 prevention in public places, especially in traditional markets or street vendors.]]>

<![CDATA[The restriction of social mobility and activity during the COVID-19 pandemic has been implemented to stop the deadly transmission of the SARS-CoV2 virus. People are forced to stay at home and strictly perform the COVID-19 health protocol in their daily activities. Currently, a continuous self-maintenance of the health, including oral health, is considered the best strategy worldwide. This community service activity aimed to assess the knowledge of the urban and rural adult community about oral health, comorbidity, and the quality of life (QoL) during this pandemic situation by using a pre-and post-test quasi-experimental design with an intervention of health-knowledge sharing using leaflets and videos, and a WHOQOL 2012 questionnaire to study the QoL. Paired t-test was used as statistical analysis. Total respondents were 131 (n = 76 for urban and n = 55 for rural), selected using the purposive sampling method. There was a significant difference between the results of the pre-test and post-test in both urban and rural groups (t count ranged from 1.69 to 5.98; p 0.05). Based on the WHOQOL 2012 questionnaire, both urban (90.79%) and rural (87.27%) respondents indicated a good QoL, while the remaining was scored as medium. Physical conditions/pain was the main domain that directly affects the QoL in both communities. It could be concluded that the knowledge-sharing intervention to the community gave a good impact in enhancing the knowledge of the respondents, however, a continuous program should be further carried out for better results. ]]>

Overall, women who were involved in this study conveyed a relatively moderate quality of life (4.08 + 0.76 SD). The highest and lowest mean scores of QOL were observed in the social relationship (78.3 + 17.05 SD) and physical health domain (60.8 + 10.76SD). Family monthly income and type of family were significantly associated with environmental health (p0.05). Astoundingly, during the outbreak women described high satisfaction on social relationship. These results may advocate policy in regards to women’s welfare.]]>

<![CDATA[The condition of the total fertility rate in Yogyakarta Province has tended to increase in the last decade. But there has also been a decline in the use of modern contraception. This study aims to study the determinant trend between fertility in the Province of Special Region (DI) Yogyakarta using the 2002/03 IDHS data and the 2017 IDHS with aggregate data for women of childbearing age 15-49 years. The results show that the pattern of marriage, the use and effectiveness of contraception, and the pattern of infertility during breastfeeding are intermediate determinants of fertility in DI Yogyakarta Province. Patterns of use and effectiveness of contraception are the main determinants of fertility in the two survey periods. The increasing marital index shows that the reproductive period of women in married status is getting longer and can cause them to be exposed to the possibility of giving birth to more children. The role of the use and effectiveness of contraception is still dominant in contributing to fertility decline. Therefore the use of contraception as a birth control still needs to be strengthened either through advocacy to stake holders in the local government.]]>
