Health Seeking Behaviour During the COVID-19 Pandemic and Influencing Factors in Indonesia
No full textIntroduction: Data from the Indonesian Ministry of Health on April 13, 2020, indicated that there were up to 4,557 positive COVID-19 cases in 34 provinces, 380 cases that recovered, and 399 cases that died. One of the transmissions of COVID-19 occurs through nosocomial infections that occur in health service institutions, namely hospitals, health centres’, or polyclinics. The significant incidence of nosocomial infection cases in the COVID-19 transmission chain raises the question of whether or not this alters community patterns around health service utilization. The objective of this research was to ascertain the community's health-seeking behavior during the COVID-19 epidemic and the elements that impact that behavior. The novelty of this research focused on the sociocultural context in Indonesia and its contributions to global discussions on pandemic health behavior.
Methods: This study used a cross-sectional survey methodology. People living on Indonesian territory make up the research's population. There were 312 participants in the study's sample. Accidental sampling was the method employed for sampling. A questionnaire is the data collection tool and using logistic regression to analysed data.
Results: During the COVID-19 pandemic, 56.4 percent of people had good health seeking behavior, compared to 43.6 percent of people who had poor health-seeking behavior. Most of the respondents sought treatment at health services (99.0%), and the rest did not seek treatment at health services (1.0%). Respondents who seek medical treatment include practicing doctors (76.3%), primary health clinics (60.3%), puskesmas (59%), and hospitals (69.2%). During the COVID-19 pandemic, factors that affected health-seeking behavior were income (0.01), marital status (0.001), travel time to health services (0.029), and health-service knowledge (0.069).
Conclusion: There is a joint influence of income, marital status, travel time to health services, and knowledge of health seeking behavior during the COVID-19
Workplace Nutrition Interventions: A Systematic Review of Their Effectiveness
No full textIntroduction: Workplace nutrition interventions have emerged as a pivotal strategy for enhancing employee health by addressing dietary behaviors and reducing the risk of non-communicable diseases. This systematic review evaluates the effectiveness of workplace-based nutrition interventions in improving nutritional outcomes and health indicators among employees.
Methods: Using the PRISMA framework, a comprehensive search was conducted across PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and Google Scholar for studies published between 2020 and 2024. Eligible studies included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-experimental designs targeting workplace-based nutrition interventions. A total of 10 studies met the inclusion criteria and were systematically analyzed for outcomes related to dietary behavior, physical activity, and health indicators. Risk of bias assessments were performed to ensure the validity of findings.
Results: The findings revealed that dietary interventions, particularly those emphasizing adherence to structured diets like the Mediterranean diet, consistently led to significant improvements in health markers, including reductions in LDL cholesterol and body fat percentage. Interventions combining dietary modifications with physical activity yielded comprehensive benefits, such as weight loss and improved dietary adherence. However, variability in study designs, sample sizes, and contextual factors limited the generalizability of results. Many studies lacked follow-up data to assess the long-term sustainability of health outcomes.
Conclusion: Workplace nutrition interventions promote employee health, especially when combining dietary and physical activity components. However, challenges such as methodological heterogeneity, short-term focus, and limited exploration of demographic and contextual factors must be addressed. Future research should prioritize standardized methodologies, conduct longitudinal assessments, and implement tailored interventions that consider workforce diversity and workplace culture. These findings provide actionable insights for policymakers and employers seeking to design sustainable workplace health initiatives that enhance employee well-being and organizational productivity
Exposure to Internet Pornography: A Cross-sectional Study among Primary School-aged Children in Java
No full textIntroduction: In today's times, generation Z has extraordinary skills in finding information. This generation is very good at using gadgets to learn, play, and even earn their own income. Pornographic content often appears accidentally and begins to be known by children. Curiosity is often the reason teenagers access pornography and then end up with the practice of premarital sexual intercourse. This study aims to understand how primary school-age children behave in accessing pornographic content.
Methods: This cross-sectional study sampled 63 students in fifth grade at a public primary school, using by total population sampling technique. Data was collected using a self-administered questionnaire technique. The data obtained were then analyzed using univariate analysis and linear regression.
Results: Most respondents in this study were 11-year-olds (82.5%), comprising 41.3% boys and 58.7% girls, and not experienced puberty yet (60.3%). Of 39.7% have been accessing porn through handphone (41.3%) and laptop (1.6%). As many as 3.2% of children have accessed pornography since the age of < 7 years. About 17.5% of pornographic content accessed is in real motion. The content accessed is mostly pictures of naked people and kissing scenes. As many as 19% of children admitted to accessing pornography accidentally and immediately closed the access.
Conclusion: The health department of Family Health and School Health needs to partner with parents to improve supervision and communication between parents and children. Providing healthy living skills training for children needs to be embedded into the educational curriculum so that skills can be carried out routinely and continuously
Work Fatigue Among Apron Workers in the Mutiara Sis Al-Jufri Airport, Palu, Central Sulawes : Kelelahan Kerja Pada Pekerja Apron di Bandara Mutiara Sis Al-Jufri Palu Sulawesi Tengah
No full textFatigue has been reported to decrease the body's physical condition, work performance, and motivation. Previous studies revealed that working in the apron section of the airport with heavy work duration can cause tiredness. The common symptoms of fatigue include a low level of activity and motivation from various internal and external factors. Therefore, this study aims to determine the factors related to fatigue in apron workers. This is a quantitative and analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design. The sample population consists of 35 workers who were selected with the total sampling technique. The data obtained were analyzed with Univariate and Bivariate Analysis using a chi-square test. The results showed that a total of 1, 30, 3, and 1 respondents were in the very high, high, moderate, and low fatigue categories, accounting for 2.9%, 85.7%, 8.6%, and 2.9%, respectively. The results of the chi-square statistical test revealed that there was a relationship between age (p = 0.0026), length of work (p = 0.021), and gender (p = 0.000), while there was no significant association during work (p = 0.527). There was also no relationship between working period and work burnout among apron workers. Furthermore, airport authorities are advised to provide knowledge in the form of seminars or training on work fatigue to educate employees on how to overcome fatigue and the contributing factors. Apron workers must also rest and avoid forcing themselves to work during fatigu
Studi Perbandingan Hukum Kedua Termodinamika dalam Sistem Terbuka dan Tertutup : Comparative Study of the Second Law of Thermodynamics in Open and Closed Systems
No full textPenelitian ini membahas perbandingan penerapan Hukum Kedua Termodinamika pada sistem terbuka dan tertutup dengan fokus pada perubahan entropi. Sistem terbuka memungkinkan pertukaran energi dan massa dengan lingkungan, sementara sistem tertutup hanya memungkinkan pertukaran energi tanpa adanya aliran massa. Metode penelitian menggunakan pendekatan teoritis dan analisis komparatif berdasarkan kajian literatur yang relevan. Pada sistem tertutup, seperti siklus Rankine, entropi meningkat selama proses ireversibel karena tidak ada aliran massa, yang membatasi efisiensi termodinamika. Sebaliknya, sistem terbuka, seperti turbin uap, dapat mempertahankan efisiensi yang lebih tinggi karena mampu memanfaatkan aliran massa dan energi dari lingkungan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dalam proses-proses tertentu, sistem terbuka lebih efektif dalam menghasilkan kerja mekanis dan mempertahankan kondisi steady-state. Namun, Hukum Kedua Termodinamika tetap berlaku pada kedua sistem: entropi total, termasuk lingkungan, selalu bertambah dalam setiap proses ireversibel. Perbandingan ini memberikan wawasan penting tentang bagaimana efisiensi dan entropi berperan dalam menentukan kinerja kedua jenis sistem, serta aplikasinya dalam teknik dan industri. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa meskipun sistem terbuka lebih unggul dalam hal efisiensi, batasan-batasan dalam sistem tertutup tetap relevan dalam konteks di mana kendali terhadap lingkungan dibutuhkan

Sociological Strategy of Da'wah in Marginalized Communities
No full textThe success of developing a da'wah strategy is supported by various factors, one of which is a da'wah strategy that hits the target. The most effective da'wah strategy used in marginalized communities is through coaching in the form of direction, mentoring and mentoring in understanding Islamic teachings, providing an understanding of the Islamic religion and its straightforward explanations based on the Qur'an and al-Hadith, establishing cooperation with religious organizations (Islam) and ulama/kyai in the context of developing da'wah through da'wah strategies, namely the al-hikmah method, the bi al-lisan method, the al-mujjadi billati hiya ahsan method and the bill-things. Marginal communities or the fringes are a group of people who are marginalized, especially from an economic aspect. This occurs as a result of the impact of development policies that are too top down (coming from government authorities) without properly considering what the lowerclass people really want and need. Not to mention the problems that exist within the lower classes of society who are unable to adapt and involve themselves in the development process. This inability is caused by education and skills factors that are far from adequate
