Background: Adolescent girls' anemia is a public health challenge. Anemia has an impact on cognitive abilities to reduce intelligence and results in adolescent achievement is down.Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the determinants of anemia in early adolescent girls in Kendari City.Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design with a sample of 97 students. Data on parental characteristics, breakfast habits, nutritional status, menstrual status, and history of infectious diseases were collected by interview using a questionnaire. Data on nutrient intake (iron, protein, vitamin C) obtained through the 2x24 hour recall method then compared to the Indonesian standard (AKG). Hemoglobin level was measured using the EasyTouch heamoglobin meter device. Data analysis was done by chi-square analysis and multiple logistic regression analysis.Results: The results showed 28.9% of adolescent girls had anemia. The results of chi-square analysis obtained that there was a relationship between the incidence of anemia on mother's education (p=0.010,), parental income (p=0.017), iron intake (p=0,000), protein intake (p=0,000), vitamin C intake (p=0.023), breakfast habits (p=0.006), menstrual status (p=0.007) and history of infection diseases (p=0,000). While the results of multiple logistic regression analysis obtained that there was a relationship between iron intake (p=0.005,OR=3.009), protein intake (p=0.007,OR=2.012), vitamin C intake (p=0.038,OR=1.167), menstrual status (p=0.002,OR=3.181) with anemia.Conclusion: The dominant determinant of anemia in early adolescent girls in Kendari City is menstrual status. It is recommended to intervene in risk factors (mother's education, parental income, iron intake, protein, vitamin C, breakfast habits, menstrual status and history of infectious disease) to reduce the prevalence of anemia among adolescent girls.
ABSTRAKMeningkatnya umur harapan hidup menyebabkan meningkatnya jumlah lanjut usia. Pada proses penuaan terjadi berbagai hal yang mengakibatkan berbagai fungsi tubuh menurun. Fungsi tubuh yang menurun dapat menimbulkan berbagai masalah kesehatan seperti terjadinya masalah gizi, penyakit kronis, serta ketidak mandirian dalam melakukan aktivitas sehari-hari, di mana masalah tersebut merupakan faktor risiko terjadinya gangguan mental emosional. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara IMT, kemandirian fi sik, serta karakteristik lansia dengan gangguan mental emosional pada lansia di UPT Pelayanan Lanjut Usia Jombang di Kediri. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian analitik dengan menggunakan rancangan penelitian cross sectional. Wawancara dilakukan kepada 47 orang dengan cara simple random sampling. Wawancara dilakukan untuk mendapatkan informasi mengenai variabel-variabel yang diteliti. Variabel tergantung pada penelitian ini adalah gangguan mental emosional. Variabel bebas adalah karakteristik, IMT, serta Kemandirian fi sik. Analisis data dilakukan dengan chi square dan korelasi pearson. Prevalensi gangguan mental emosional yang ditemukan pada penelitian ini sebesar 23,4%. Responden yang tidak memiliki kemandirian fi sik sebesar 4,3%. Responden yang memiliki Indeks masa tubuh yang tidak normal adalah sebesar 26,2%. Hasil analisis yang menunjukkan hubungan adalah kemandirian fi sik dengan gangguan mental emosional (p = 0,008). Hasil analisis yang tidak menunjukkan hubungan adalah IMT dan karakteristik terhadap gangguan mental emosional pada lansia. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah lansia mempunyai risiko untuk menderita gangguan mental emosional. Kemandirian fi sik berhubungan dengan gangguan mental emosional pada lansia. Sehingga perlu adanya perhatian yang lebih terutama dari sisi psikologis kepada lansia yang tidak memiliki kemandirian fi sik.
Introduction: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a disease caused by the dengue virus that infects the body. Dengue is a common viral infection in warm tropical climates. The infection is caused by one of four closely related dengue viruses. The disease now plagues many countries and even more than 100 countries within the WHO, including Africa, the Americas, the Eastern Mediterranean, Southeast Asia, and the Western Pacific. The Americas, Southeast Asia, and the Western Pacific are the most severely affected regions, with Asia representing 70% of the global disease burden. The high incidence rate of DHF in various regions of Indonesia is the background by several factors, one of which is the density of the seaters. The aim of this study was to analyze the correlation between population density and larvae free index and Incidence Rate (IR) Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) in Blitar Regency in 2013-2017. Methods: The data were analyzed quantitatively using Spearman correlation tests to analyze relationships between variables. Result: The results of the analysis found there was no correlation between dengue fever incidence rate and larvae free index (p = 0.603 r = -0.117), and there was a correlation between the incidence rate of dengue fever and population density (p = 0.002 r = 0.619). Conclusion: High population density is a risk factor for DHF events in Blitar Regency, so there needs to be an anticipation of preventive measures such as the implementation of 3M and counseling of the impact of high population density.
About 500.000 cervical carcinoma new cases are found with more than 250.000 deathcases annually (Rasjidi, 2009). Cervical cancer is the highest prevalence of disease among women inIndonesia, it is equal to 0,80/00 (Kemenkes RI, 2015). Cervical cancer is caused by multifactors which areable to increase cervical cancer case, one of risk factors is personal hygiene. This study aims to analyzecervival cancer risk diff erence based on personal hygiene which consists of vaginal antiseptic usage,frequency of changing underpants, frequency of changing napkins, water utilization for vagina, publictoilet utilization, vaginal discharge history, joint towel and underpants among childbearing women. Thisstudy is a case control study which case groups are 15–49 old women with cervical carcinoma, whilecontrol groups are 15–49 years old women and are undiagnosed cervical cancer. The result of this studyshowed that joint underpants has the highest Risk Diff erence (RD = 51.42%; 95% CI: 1.73-57.48). It isrecommended for women to keep personal hygiene.Keyword: personal Hygiene, Cervical Cancer, Cervical Cancer risk
Hypertension cases in Indonesia have been increasing. Hypertension can be caused by controllable factors such as consumption patterns and nutritional status. This study was aimed to analyze the risk of fast food and instant noodle consumption patterns, as well as the risk of nutritional status on the incidence of hypertension in Indonesian migrant communities. This study used a cross-sectional design with 6,928 respondents. This study involved secondary data from the 5th batch of the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS). The results showed that the majority of respondents were female (51.24%), adult age category (58.63%), frequent fast food consumption patterns (89.42%), frequent instant noodle consumption patterns (56.63%), and normal nutritional status (72.42%). The subjects with frequent consumption of fast food (OR = 1.49; CI = 1.041–2.130) and instant noodle (OR = 1.25; CI = 1.030–1.520) as well as overweight (OR = 3.90; CI = 3.154–4,838) and obesity (OR = 6.75; CI = 5,110–8,935) have higher risk to experience hypertension. Based on these results, it is recommended to migrants to maintain their consumption patterns by limiting their fast food and instant noodles intake and also to maintain the nutritional status to prevent hypertension
