Risk Factors for Low Back Pain (LBP) in Tofu Industry Workers in Palembang, Indonesia
Get PDFTofu industry workers are at risk of experiencing Low Back Pain (LBP) because they work with heavy loads and risky work postures for a continuous period of time. The study aims to analyze the relationship between work posture, work period, and knowledge with LBP.: Descriptive analytical research with a cross-sectional design, conducted in Palembang City from March to April 2024. The study involved 40 participants. Data collection was carried out by observation and interviews. Work posture was assessed using the Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) method, while the variables of length of service, knowledge, and LBP were obtained from interviews. All data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test and Prevalence Odds Ratio (POR) at a 95% confidence level. The study found that 17 (42.5%) respondents experienced LBP, 13 (32.5%) had risky work postures, and 22 (55%) respondents had a work period of 6-10 years. The analysis results found that there was a significant relationship between work posture (P= 0.007) and work period (P= 0.010). At the same time, knowledge did not show a significant relationship with LBP (P= 0.167). Risk factors for LBP in tofu industry workers are work posture (POR= 9.524) and work period (POR= 9.750). The study results found that LBP is closely related to work posture and work period. Muscle stretching, getting enough rest, and using ergonomic work tools are research recommendations
Nutritional Knowledge, Physical Activity, and The Incidence of Chronic Energy Deficiency in Female Students
Get PDFFemale students aged 18-20, categorized as late teens, often suffer from chronic energy deficiency (CED), as indicated by upper arm circumference measurements. This condition can lead to anemia, impaired organ development, stunted physical growth, and reduced work productivity. This study investigates the relationship between nutritional knowledge, physical activity, and the incidence of CED among students at the Nutrition Department, Politeknik Kesehatan Kemenkes Bengkulu. An observational cross-sectional study was conducted with 92 participants. Nutritional knowledge was assessed using a self-administered questionnaire (Ques CA), physical activity was measured with the Baecky Physical Activity Questionnaire (BPAQ), and CED was determined by measuring upper arm circumference. The chi-square test analysis revealed no significant relationship between nutritional knowledge and CED (p-value=0.868). However, a significant relationship was found between physical activity and CED (p-value=0.001). Despite having good nutritional knowledge, many adolescents still experience CED due to its lack of application in daily life. Efforts are needed to enhance attitudes and behaviors toward better knowledge application. Additionally, upper arm circumference measurements indicate that physical activity may influence subcutaneous fat mass.Female students aged 18-20, categorized as late teens, often suffer from chronic energy deficiency (CED), as indicated by upper arm circumference measurements.

The study showed that two variables were associated with contact dermatitis, namely cage ventilation (OR= 5.45; 95% CI: 1.21 - 24.43; P=0,020) and frequency of hand washing (OR= 2.70; 95% CI: 2.57 - 282.99; P=0,001). Meanwhile, variables that were not significantly related were age (P=0.306), gender (P=0.206), length of work (p=0.698), floor (P=1.000), and PPE usage (P=0.245). Poor environmental quality and personal hygiene practices could affect contact dermatitis in workers. Therefore, efforts are needed, such as occupational safety and health education for workers, routine health checks, and environmental inspections at PT. X
ANALISA KADAR HDL DAN LDL PADA PEROKOK KONVENSIONAL DAN PEROKOK ELEKTRIK (VAPE)
No full textLatar belakang: Merokok merupakan kebiasaan berbahaya bagi kesehatan yang merusak dinding pembuluh darah. Nikotin yang terkandung dalam asap rokok baik rokok konvensional maupun rokok elektrik (vape) akan merangsang hormon adrenalin yang akan merubah metabolisme lemak sehingga kadar HDL (High Density Lipoprotein) di dalam aliran darah menurun dan kadar LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein) dalam darah meningkat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kadar HDL dan LDL pada perokok konvensional dan perokok elektrik (vape).Metode: Jenis penelitian ini menggunakan deskriptif kuantitatif dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Penelitian ini dilakukan di RSUD Labuang Baji, dengan jumlah responden sebanyak 20 orang terdiri dari 10 perokok konvensional dan 10 perokok elektrik (vape).Hasil: Penurunan kadar HDL pada perokok konvensional sebanyak 7 responden (70%), tinggi sebanyak 3 responden (30%) pada perokok elektrik (vape) penurunan kadar HDL sebanyak 10 responden (100%). Hasil kadar LDL perokok konvensional dengan klasifikasi optimal 4 responden (40%), hampir optimal 2 responden (20%), ambang batas tinggi 3 responden (30%) dan tinggi 1 responden (10%), pada perokok elektrik (vape) dengan klasifikasi optimal 2 responden (20%), hampir optimal 1 responden (10%), ambang batas tinggi 5 responden (50%) dan tinggi 2 responden (20%).Simpulan: Dari hasil penelitian diharapkan bahwa masyarakat menjaga pola hidup yang sehat serta mengurangi konsumsi rokok
Pengaruh Variasi Campuran Serbuk Kayu, Sampah Sayuran dan Kotoran Kerbau Terhadap Waktu Pengomposan dan Kadar CNPK Kompos
Get PDFSampah yang tidak dikelola dengan baik dapat merusak dan mencemari lingkungan. Pembuatan kompos menjadi salah satu metode pengelolaan sampah organik yang dapat dilakukan pada tingkat rumah tangga. Penelitian bertujuan menganalisis pengaruh variasi campuran serbuk kayu, sampah sayuran dan kotoran kerbau terhadap waktu pengomposan dan kadar C-organik, Nitrogen total, Phosfor, Kalium (CNPK) kompos. Penelitian Quasi Experiment dengan rancangan Post Test Only Desain. Percobaan dilakukan dengan tiga variasi perlakuan (komposisi tiga jenis bahan) yang ditentukan berdasarkan C/N rasio awal, yaitu 30:1, 35:1, dan 40:1. Keseluruhan percobaan dilakukan dengan lima kali pengulangan (n= 15). Pengukuran pH dan suhu dilakukan selama percobaan dan dihentikan setelah mendapatkan tingkat kematangan kompos yang diinginkan (dinilai dari warna, bau, dan tekstur kompos), selanjutnya dianalisis kadar CNPK. Data dianalisis dengan uji Manova (Multivariate Analysis of Variance) untuk mengetahui perbedaan bermakna dari variasi perlakuan terhadap lama waktu pengomposan dan kadar CNPK, pada tingkat kepercayaan 95%. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan pengaruh variasi campuran perlakuan terhadap waktu pengomposan dan kadar CNPK kompos (P < 0,05). Dari tiga variasi, perlakuan ketiga (40:1) menunjukkan hasil terbaik dengan lama waktu pengomposan selama 16 hari, serta kadar NPK yang memenuhi standar yang ditetapkan (N= 1,19%, P= 0,4%, dan K= 2,32%). Namun, ketiga perlakuan mendapatkan kadar C-organik melebihi standar yang ditetapkan (> 32%). Percobaan telah membuktikan pengaruh variasi campuran serbuk kayu, sampah sayuran dan kotoran kerbau terhadap waktu pengomposan dan kadar CNPK kompos. Keseragaman jenis kayu serta penurunan kuantitas serbuk kayu menjadi rekomendasi penelitian selanjutnya
