PurposeMany individuals search for obesity treatment options on the Internet. We aimed to analyze the popularity of pharmacological and surgical obesity treatment methods searched by Google users.Material and MethodsWe used Google Trends to identify topics representing the following: recommended surgical methods (n = 9), recommended pharmacological methods (n = 10), and not recommended pharmacological methods (n = 34). The data was generated for 2004–2022 and 2020–2022. Relative search volume (RSV) was adjusted using “Gastric bypass surgery” as a benchmark. We analyzed the geographical and temporal trends of the topics.ResultsIn 2004–2022, the topics representing recommended surgical methods numerically gained the most popularity among Google users, but in 2020–2022 the recommended drugs exceeded other obesity treatment methods. The most popular individual topics since 2004 were “flaxseed,” “Spirulina,” “Carnitine,” “Bariatric surgery,” and “Orlistat.” The most dynamic increases of searches since 2004 were observed for “Sleeve gastrectomy,” “Curcumin,” “Psyllium,” and “Bupropion/Naltrexon.” Since 2018, topics representing GLP-1 analogs such as “Semaglutide” and “Saxenda” revealed exponential increases in RSV, causing that “Semaglutide” to become the fourth most popular topic in 2020–2022.ConclusionsGoogle users across the world were the most interested in topics representing bariatric surgery, but recently recommended drugs for the treatment of obesity gained the most attention. The most popular individual topics were dietary supplements with uncertain effects on weight loss.Graphical Abstract

BACKGROUND: The cesarean section in Indonesia was higher, still worrying for women and babies’ health with pregnancy complications. It will have psychological effects such as trauma and stress during labor and its consequences on labor cost. AIM: This study’s purpose was to determine the cost of cesarean delivery as a diagnosis of transition-related groups and the Australian-diagnosis-related groups (AR-DRGs) model’s impact. METHODS: The research method is descriptive qualitative study. The 42 samples are pregnant women and that selected by purposive sampling. The data are collected from a secondary data source of medical record installations, observations, interview interviews, and focus group discussion with health professionals, nurses, doctors, and midwives. Data analysis is based on the activity-based costing system method. It includes cost treatment per disease diagnosis, cesarean section AR-DRG 370 method as a payment method for hospital treatment. RESULTS: Determinants of cost differences in cesarean section surgery are based on AR-DRG 370 related to diabetes and eclampsia (complications and comorbidities) with relatively high-cost rates of O01A DRGs of US$ 2639 due to high-risk pregnancy complications. Complications of mild pregnancy (DRGO01D) with different categories of uterine rupture and sepsis have a low-cost average at the total cost of US$ 1251. Payment ability of an average of 42 respondents shows the costs category of DRGs O01A-DRGs O01D US$ 7088 or US$ 169, per patient and length of stay 4–6 days. CONCLUSIONS: The impact of Australia’s AR-DRGs model of transition DRG prospective payment shows that the health system can improve the quality of professional services in hospitals and control costs, and labor costs are cheaply profitable for hospitals. The results are accurate and experienced to be applied in Indonesian hospitals.
