Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD) merupakan salah satu masalah kesehatan di negara berkembang dan global. Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD) adalah penyakit infeksi akut yang ditularkan ke manusia melalui gigitan nyamuk Aedes yang mengandung virus dengue. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengembangkan indeks prediksi kejadian demam berdarah dengue (DBD) di Kabupaten Indramayu. Penelitian ini menggunakan studi observasional analitik dengan desain studi kasus kontrol. Penelitian dilaksanakan di Kabupaten Indramayu Provinsi Jawa Barat pada bulan Maret sampai Mei 2019. Populasi yang diteliti terdiri dari seluruh penduduk yang berdomisili di Kabupaten Indramayu pada tahun 2017-2018. Total ukuran sampel adalah 102 individu. Teknik pengambilan sampel yang digunakan adalah simple random sampling sedangkan uji statistik yang digunakan adalah regresi logistik sederhana, regresi logistik berganda dan analisis ROC. Hasil analisis multivariat menunjukkan bahwa terdapat tiga variabel yang masuk dalam rumus indeks, yaitu tiga praktik kebiasaan (3M) di rumah, kebiasaan menggantung pakaian, dan keberadaan sampah. Rumus indeks prediksi kejadian demam berdarah dengue (DBD) (-2,424 + 1,007 * Praktek 3M di rumah (Buruk) + 1,087 * Kebiasaan menggantung pakaian (Ya) + 1,107 * Adanya sampah (Ya)). Penerapan rumus ini dapat menyimpulkan bahwa jika seseorang memenuhi setidaknya dua dari tiga indikator tersebut, maka orang tersebut diprediksi memiliki risiko lebih tinggi untuk menderita penyakit demam berdarah dengue (DBD). Sedangkan jika seseorang memenuhi salah satu dari ketiga indikator tersebut, maka seseorang diprediksi memiliki risiko yang lebih rendah untuk menderita demam berdarah dengue (DBD).

BackgroundThe increasing population of older people can be a positive impact if they could be productive, or it could be negative as a burden if they depend on others. Elderly with physical disabilities can be influenced by various factors, including depression, which can be caused by functional changes in the body due to aging, loss of work, or even the loss of a loved one. This study aimed to determine the relationship between depression and physical disabilities among the elderly in Indonesia who were stratified by gender. MethodsA cross-sectional study using a national survey dataset namely Basic Health Survey and Socio-Economic Survey for 2018 involving 85,427 elderly. Depression and disability were assessed using Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview and Barthel Index. Chi-Square test and multiple binary logistic regression were used to analyze the data. ResultsThe results revealed that 24.75% of elderly people experienced physical disabilities. The probability of males and females with depression having physical disabilities was respectively 2.95 (95% CI = 2.74-3.17) and 2.49 (95% CI = 2.36-2.64) times higher compared to those without depression. The interaction between depression and gender was statistically significant, in that females with depression had an 11% probability of having physical disability. ConclusionThis study reaffirmed that disability is a risk factor for depression in the elderly and female gender is the effect modifier rather than the risk factor. The male depression group showed more physical disability symptoms than the female depression group. There is collaboration from various sectors to prevent depression and physical disabilities.
Background: Electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) is an alternative to reduce the harmfulness of conventional cigarettes. However, there are still pros and cons to using the e-cigarette, especially among adolescents. Instead of reducing the health problem, using e-cigarette even make the illness the same as conventional ones. Objective: This study aimed to examine the determinant of using e-cigarettes among adolescents and smokers of school age. Method: This study used the cross-sectional data from the Global Youth Tobacco Survey (GYTS) Indonesia 2019. The national school was selected by proportional random sampling. Around 832 adolescent smokers were eligible for this study. Results: Among 832 adolescent smokers in this study, about 49.64% of them ever used e-cigarettes. The factors significantly associated with the use of e-cigarettes were money pocket and the use of other forms of smoked tobacco. However, other independent variables, such as age, gender, teachers smoking during school hours, and parent smoking, were not significantly associated with using e-cigarettes. Conclusion: The factors associated with e-cigarette use were related to the students’ socioeconomic status. The roles of parents and teachers need to be addressed to reduce the harmfulness of using e-cigarettes.
Background: Food taboo is one of the social phenomena that can influence people’s health status, including women in fisherman families. Some types of food categorized as taboo may contain high nutrients. Food taboo practices still occur because people are afraid that bad things will happen if they ignore them. Objective: This study aimed to explore the food taboo among pregnant, breastfeeding, and adult women in Bira Village, Bulukumba District, South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. Methods: This study employed a phenomenological design. Eight participants were selected using the purposive sampling method. Data were collected in 2022 using semi-structured interviews and were analyzed using summative content analysis using NVivo software. Results: Several types of food were categorized as taboo, such as Lela fish, moringa fruit, pineapple, stingray, moringa leaf, squid, and mango. Most participants agreed that they just follow what the older people suggest, which might not make sense since all those foods contain many nutritional ingredients. Conclusion: The study findings serve as an input for public health professionals and other related stakeholders to address this cultural issue and provide understanding to the community not to avoid taboo food, which is essentially beneficial for their health.
