Introduction: Coal-fired power plants contribute to air pollution emissions of nearly one-third of global SO2 , 14 % of NOx , and 5 % of PM2.5. This condition could worsen adults’ respiratory health who live close to power plants; WHO estimates that COPD and LRTI cause around 18% of premature deaths related to outdoor air pollution. This literature review aims to conduct a systematic review of the health impacts of coal-fired power plant emissions on adults’ respiratory systems and explore what risk factors lead to decreased lung status. Also, to answer how risk factors influence decreased lung function in adults’ respiratory system from coal-fired power plants’ emissions. Discussion: This study used a literature study method using an online database to of various research data sources with the same topic. The searching of articles was performed based on the inclusion criteria. From an initial collection of 468 articles, after screening and considering its feasibility, four articles were obtained to serve as material for the final systematic review. The literature review showed that there had been a change in lung function of respiratory system of adults due to long-term exposure to emissions from coal-fired power plants. Factors that influence decreased lung function in adults were NOx and SO2 exposure levels, residence distance, wind direction, age, and smoking status. Conclusion: Future research should focus on improving models for assessing exposure to NOx , SO2 , PM10 and PM2.5, considering age and smoking habits in evaluating lung function.
Gastritis biasanya dapat terjadi pada orang yang memiliki pola makan yang tidak teratur serta mengonsumsi makanan yang dapat merangsang produksi asam lambung. Kejadian gastritis di Indonesia menurut WHO pada tahun 2017 mencapai 40,8% dengan prevalensi 274.396 kasus dari 238.452.952 jiwa penduduk. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat pola makan dengan kejadian gastritis pada mahasiswa di FKM UNPRI. Penelitian ini bersifat deskriptif analitik dengan desain studi cross sectional dengan jumlah sampel 67 responden yang diambil dengan metode purposive sampling. Data yang didapat kemudian dilakukan uji statsitik chi-square untuk mengetahui hubungan antar variabel. Dari hasil penelitian diperoleh bahwa terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara jenis makanan yang dikonsumsi dengan kejadian gastritis pada mahasiswa (Pv=0,001), namun tidak ada hubungan yang signifikan antara jumlah makanan yang dikonsumsi (Pv=0,497) dan frekuensi makan (Pv=0,075) dengan kejadian gastritis pada mahasiswa FKM UNPRI.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
