Abstract

Stunting in an infant aged under two years old will affect the health and well-being of the children in the future. Banyumas Regency has 10 stunting locus villages with various nutritional problems that could lead to the incidence of stunting. Diet, nutritional status, and mother’s history during pregnancy will affect stunting in infants aged under two. This study aims to determine the relationship between the incidence of stunting in under-two infants related to parenting styles and mother’s history during pregnancy in stunting locus villages in Banyumas Regency. This study used a case-control design using a total sampling technique with 181 respondents. This type of data was collected through interviews using a questionnaire to mothers of the infants aged under two. While the measurement of body height and weight of under-five children was derived from the latest weighing data conducted by research enumerators using infatometers and digital baby scales. There was no relationship between maternal age (p = 0.21), birth spacing (p = 0.63), nutritional status (p = 0.40) with the incidence of stunting, and there was a significant relationship between maternal parenting styles and the incidence of stunting (p = 0.04).

Abstract

Dengue virus is a group of RNA viruses that are highly pathogenic in humans and spread quickly through the bites of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes, especially in tropical countries. More than half a billion out of 100 countries worldwide are at serious risk of dengue virus infection. Vector surveillance activities with Ovitrap and detection of dengue virus types in Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus have never been carried out in Pontianak City. It is important in early alert systems at transmission foci. The purpose of this study was to prove the transovarial transmission of dengue virus in Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes with a transovarial transmission index (TTI) in endemic areas in Pontianak City, West Kalimantan. The method used in this research is descriptive observational, viral examination method with immunocytochemistry streptavidin-biotin peroxidase complex (ISBPC) and Polymerase Chain Reaction Transcription Reaction (PCR) aimed at proving the presence of transovarial transmission of dengue virus in the same period. The conclusion in this study is that there is evidence of transovarial transmission of dengue virus in Aedes mosquitoes in endemic areas by 29.3% in Sungai Jawi Dalam sub-district, West Pontianak sub-district, and 39.6% in Batu Layang sub-district, North Pontianak sub-district, mosquito density from the results of the Ovitrap Index measurement (OI) in Batu Layang Village is denser, namely 41.3%, compared to Sungai Jawi Village, which is 38.22% and has succeeded in identifying the type of dengue virus, namely the Dengue virus strain, in the two research locations.

Abstract

Hearing loss in children may cause social isolation and poor communication skills, potentially affecting mental disorders and quality of life. Hearing aids (HA) provide auditory stimuli that can improve children's speech ability and influence their quality of life. A cross-sectional study in three special schools-B (SLB-B) in Semarang was carried out. A total of 82 children (7-12 years old) with severe hearing loss with or without hearing aids were included. Quality of life was assessed by the Hearing Environments and Reflection on Quality of Life (HEAR-QL) questionnaire. The results showed that 48 (58.54%) subjects used hearing aids, and 34 (41.46%) did not use hearing aids. The average subject's age was 10.77±1.56 years old. Hearing-aid use was associated with a good quality of life of children with hearing loss (p0.001). Good quality of life was found in 68.8% of children with hearing aids compared to only 2.9% in children without hearing aids. Duration of hearing-aid use (p0.001), mother education (p0.006) was associated with good quality of life of children, whereas gender (p=0.49), number of siblings (p=0.06), and socioeconomic status (p=0.63) were not. The quality of life of children who use hearing aids is better than without hearing aids.

Abstract

DHF cases tend to increase from year to year in Indonesia. So the government makes efforts to control cases of Dengue Fever (DHF) which are usually done chemically and harm the environment and health. There is a need for safer, more effective, and environmentally friendly controls, such as using natural ingredients as natural larvicides. Among the natural ingredients having potential as a larvicide is Bintaro leaves (Cerbera manghas). The purpose of this study was to determine the toxicity of Bintaro leaf extract against third instar larvae of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. This experimental study used 7 treatments of Bintaro leaf extract concentration (5 %, 15 %, 25 %, 35 %, 45 %, 65 %, 75 %), abate as a positive control, and distilled water as a negative control. Each treatment used ten instar III Aedes aegypti larvae with four repetitions. The data obtained were then analyzed using probit analysis to determine the toxicity of Bintaro leaf extract to Aedes aegypti larvae by calculating the LC50 and LC90 values. The results showed that the most effective concentration was 75 % because it could kill 100% of the test larvae. The LC50 value of 5,097 % and the LC90 value of 25,300 % indicate that the level of toxicity is very toxic. The probit regression analysis shows a linearity line equation y = 1.15 + 1.43x with a correlation (R2) of 0.512 which indicates that the correlation is strong enough. It is related to the content of flavonoids, tannins, saponins, triterpenoids which are toxic to the abdomen, nervous system, and respiratory system of larvae. From the research results, Bintaro extract with a concentration of 75 % can be used as a natural larvicide candidate. Furthermore, further research to see the toxicity to the environment can be done.are toxic to the abdomen, nervous system, and respiratory system of larvae. From the research results, Bintaro extract with a concentration of 75 % can be used as a natural larvicide candidate. Furthermore, further research to see the toxicity to the environment can be done.

Abstract

The presence of National Health Insurance at the same time with the implementation of regional autonomy affects the implementation of many other policies, including population control. Different understanding and commitment of implementors resulted in mixed results, with unsuccessful trends of implementing population control policy in the frame of National Health Insurance. Cimahi as the most populous city in West Java needs to implement the policies effectively to prevent negative impact of overpopulation. An analysis needs to be conducted to assess the implementation of the policies in Cimahi. The purpose of this study was to analyze the implementation of population control policy within the framework of National Health Insurance. This research was conducted in Cimahi and used qualitative design with case study approach. Data collected through in-depth interview and questionnaires to the implementors of the policies. Data analyzed with the concept of Edwards III and Analysis Hierarchy Process. The results showed that the policies implemented facing difficulties, with National Health Insurance not necessarily encouraging population control through the use of contraceptive. It is suggested that Cimahi City Government improve policies implementation by integrating mutually supportive policies, communicating and disseminating, increasing resources, and increasing cooperation between institutions.

Abstract

Decreased lung function is at risk for COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). Risk identification is a strategy to improve the quality of self-management, through the identification of risk factors and early symptoms of COPD. This study aims to determine the relationship between risk factors and early symptoms of COPD in builders related to pulmonary function disorders. The design of this study was case control in Rungkut District, Surabaya in September-December 2018. The research variables were lung function disorders, risk factors and early symptoms of COPD, with ordinal data scale and chi-square test analysis. This study involved 158 respondents consisting of 79 respondents with lung function disorders and 79 respondents with no lung function disorders. The highest total risk factor for COPD in both groups was smoking, and there was no significant difference (P = 0.75) on the early symptoms of COPD in the pulmonary dysfunction group and in the group with no lung function disorders. The highest total initial symptoms of COPD in both groups were chronic cough and sputum hypersecretion. However, there was no significant difference between the two groups (P = 1.00). There was no relationship between COPD risk factors and early symptoms of COPD in the pulmonary dysfunction group and the no lung function group.
