“…It is also necessary to explore the timing of loss to follow up among MDR-TB patients. A study from United Kingdom reported around one sixth of MDR TB patients lost in their 3-11 th month from start of their treatment 18 , however not in agreement with present results which showed a very low of only 6% loss to follow up cases. Comparable results were presented by a study from Uganda which presented 8.8% lost to follow up 19 .…”

Background: Tuberculosis is a contagion from ancient times comprising around one 3rd of global population on the wedge of infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex where under developed and developing countries is coping with high burden of the disease. Aim: To observe the most prevalent occupation and treatment outcome in both Genders of MDR TB patients. Methodology: Health Research Institute-National Institute of Health TB Research Centre in collaboration with Department of Pulmonology, King Edward Medical University/Mayo Hospital Lahore from january 2014 to December 2020. A pre-designed questionnaire was used to collect data from MDR Tb patients after verbal informed consent. Patients were followed to see the final outcome on completion of anti-tubercle treatment. Data was entered and analyzed by using SPSS. Results: Out of total 450 MDR TB patients analyzed in this study a higher proportion of 54.9% were males and 45.1% were females with an overall mean age of patients as 39.64±17.52 years. Most of 159(35.4%) patients had no skills and were labors whereas most of 145 (28.2%) females were house wives. Almost 71% of the patients successfully completed the treatment including 45% cured on the basis of availability of final smear and culture reports.. Conclusion: A high mortality rate of MDR TB patients was observed while most of the TB patients in this study belong to labor class while most of the women were housewives. Keywords: Tuberculosis, MDR TB, Occupation, Treatment outcome, loss to follow up.

“…This finding was in line with the results of previous studies, where there was an increase in the incidence of the disease among individuals with secondary and tertiary education. 44 Entrepreneurs were found to be the most common occupations in both the video and leaflet groups, accounting for 59.38% and 46.88% of the population, respectively. Based on the results, it was difficult to link the type of work with the prevalence of TB because there was little information on the subject.…”

Background: The effectiveness of Tuberculosis (TB) treatment outcomes for patients is currently suboptimal, posing a significant challenge to comprehensive efforts aimed at eradicating the disease. To address this problem, several studies have proposed that the implementation of health education initiatives have the potential to enhance treatment adherence and behavior of patients. Therefore, this study aims to assess the efficacy of health education programs using video and leaflet modalities.Method: This was a quasi-experimental study with a non-randomized pretest-posttest control group design. The sample population consisted of 85 TB patients at the Kenanga Health Center, Tegal Sari Mandala II, Medan Denai District, Medan City in 2022. Furthermore, the samples size was obtained using a purposive sampling method, involving 64 patients, which were evenly divided into two groups, namely intervention and control. The controls and intervention groups were educated using leaflet and video media, respectively. Pre-test and post-test were given to all the participants using the same instrument. A post-test was administered on the twenty-fifth day, where the materials were the same as those used at the pre-test stage. The data collected in this study were analyzed using the Wilcoxon, Mann-Whitney, and N-Gain tests.Results: There were significant differences between knowledges, attitudes, and practices of the participants before and after being given the interventions. Furthermore, knowledges, attitudes, and practices scores increased after the interventions were administered. Based on the results, health education using video (N-Gain score of 76.82) improved behavior of TB patients compared to the use of leaflet (N-Gain score of 49.74). After being educated, people with TB were expected to exhibit higher treatment adherence and adoption of healthy lifestyles.

“…Patients who had completed high school had an elevated incidence of tuberculosis, contributing to many side effects. Furthermore, adverse effects were more closely related to patients from lower socioeconomic classes [9]. Water supply has a vital role in TB transmission.…”

An example of a traditional coastal community imbued with Malay cultural elements may be seen on Penyengat Island, a tiny island in Indonesia’s Riau Archipelago Province. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has recommended Penyengat Island as a World Heritage site due to its 46 cultural heritage sites that are dispersed around the island. The increase in population occasionally requires more residential land, so many residents build housing on the remaining sites of cultural heritage buildings on Penyengat Island. This study aims to ascertain the sustainability situation and methods for planning wholesome communities in the coastal regions of Penyengat Island's cultural heritage. The method used was a Multidimensional Scale approach with the Rapid Appraisal-Index Sustainability of Settlement ordination technique to produce an arrangement strategy through a prospective analysis approach. Studies of the literature and field surveys were used to gather data. The sample used in this study was the head of the family with inclusion criteria. The results of the sustainability analysis showed that the value of the ecological dimension index in the range of 51.71 – 60.67 is entirely sustainable at RW1 to RW5. The economic dimension in the field of 40.46 – 48.23 is quite a sustainable status in RW1 to RW5. The socio-cultural size range of 48.97 – 51.78 is entirely sustainable at RW1 locations and RW2-RW5 sites are less sustainable. The institutional, legal dimension in the value range of 50.18-71.24 is entirely sustainable at RW1 to RW5 locations. Green infrastructure dimension in the value range of -0.12 – 6.72 unsustainable at locations R1 to RW5. The prospective analysis showed 11 critical attributes for developing a long-term settlement strategy for the cultural heritage of Penyengat Island’s coastal area. The primary strategy for settlement arrangement included (1) Strengthening institutions, governance, and settlement arrangement regulations and (2) Community empowerment. In summary, these two main strategies are critical factors in the sustainability of Penyengat Island as a residential area and cultural heritage that must be preserved. Furthermore, the private sector assumed responsibility for the holistic development of residential areas and cultural heritage on Penyengat Island.
