Education on Sedentary Lifestyle, Nutritional Status, and Metabolic Syndrome Among Students
No full textSedentary lifestyle and imbalanced nutritional status are major risk factors for metabolic syndrome, including among adolescents. Currently, many adolescents experience a lack of physical activity due to various factors, including excessive use of gadgets, prolonged sitting during study, and unhealthy eating habits. This community service activity aimed to educate students of Ar-Raihan Boarding School, Lampung, regarding sedentary lifestyle, nutritional status, and the prevention of metabolic syndrome. The methods included health promotion through interactive counseling, simple nutritional status assessment using Body Mass Index (BMI) measurement, blood pressure examination, and random blood glucose examination, as well as group discussions. The health education activities were successfully implemented and received positive responses from students. Screening results showed variations in nutritional status and health conditions that served as the basis for providing educational feedback. After the intervention, students demonstrated increased understanding of sedentary lifestyle risk factors and the importance of adopting a healthy lifestyle to prevent metabolic syndrome. This health education program is expected to be implemented sustainably to support the development of healthy behaviors from adolescence

Analysis of the determinants of anemia in pregnant women in the working area of The Wonggeduku Barat Public Health Center
No full textAnemia in pregnant women is a health problem that can cause serious complications for both the mother and the fetus. Anemia prevalence among pregnant women in Indonesia was 48.9% in 2024, while at the Wonggeduku Barat Community Health Center from January to March 2023, the rate was 25.6%. This study aims to analyze the determinants associated with the incidence of anemia in pregnant women in the Wonggeduku Barat Community Health Center working area. This study was an observational analysis with a case-control study design. The sample consisted of 78 pregnant women (39 cases and 39 controls), matched by gestational age in the first, second, and third trimesters. The data were collected through interviews and hemoglobin laboratory tests. Data analysis used the odds ratio test with SPSS Statistics version 25, with a 95% confidence level. Data analysis was performed using the Odds Ratio test with SPSS version 25 and a 95% confidence level. The statistical test results showed that compliance with iron tablet consumption (OR=3.053) and dietary patterns (OR=2.970). It was concluded that iron tablet consumption and dietary patterns were risk factors for anemia in pregnant women. Therefore, it was recommended that access to better health services be improved, and that education on the importance of a nutritious diet for pregnant women in preventing anemia be provided
Maternal Characteristics and the Incidence of Anemia Among Pregnant Women
No full textDuring pregnancy, women are at risk of developing anemia, which can increase the likelihood of preterm birth and, in severe cases, lead to maternal or infant mortality. Anemia in pregnancy is influenced by multiple factors, and identifying these determinants can facilitate effective prevention. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of anemia among pregnant women and the factors associated with it. The research used a cross-sectional design with 100 pregnant women living in the working area of Nagaswidak Public Health Center, Palembang, as subjects. Samples were selected using a consecutive sampling method. Hemoglobin levels were measured using a hemoglobin test strip, while other variables were obtained through questionnaires. Bivariate analysis was conducted using the chi-square test. The results showed that gestational age (p-value=0,032), pregnancy spacing (p-value=0,017), compliance with iron tablet consumption (p-value=0,004), and nutritional status (p-value=0,000) were significantly associated with anemia in pregnant women. Meanwhile, maternal age (p-value=0,064), education (p-value=0,703), occupation (p-value=0,908), parity (p-value=0,444), knowledge (p-value=0,251), and dietary patterns (p-value=0,965) were not significantly related. Efforts to prevent anemia in pregnancy should focus on improving iron tablet compliance, monitoring nutritional status, and promoting optimal pregnancy spacing
Analysis of Maternal Characteristics, Knowledge, and Perceptions Regarding Basic Immunization Completeness: A Cross-Sectional Study
No full textComplete basic immunization is a government program aimed at protecting infants and children from preventable diseases. However, several factors cause mothers not to complete their children's immunizations. This study aimed to analyze the completeness of basic immunization based on maternal characteristics, knowledge, and perception. A quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted at the Simpang Empat Health Center, West Pasaman, from November 2023 to January 2024, involving 115 subjects. Results showed significant relationships between maternal education (p-value=0,004), employment status (p-value=0,036), religion (p-value=0,000), birth weight (p-value=0,000), and knowledge (p-value=0,044) with immunization completeness. No significant associations were found for birth order, number of children, family size, or perception. Religion also influenced immunization behavior. Strengthening family-based health promotion through KIA books, educational videos, and digital reminder applications is recommended
Iron and Vitamin A Intake with the Incidence of Anemia in Adolescent Girls
No full textIron is an essential micronutrient, particularly for blood formation and hemoglobin synthesis. Vitamin A contributes by mobilizing iron reserves in the body, thereby supporting hemoglobin production. This study aimed to examine the association between iron and vitamin A intake and the incidence of anemia among adolescent girls in Surakarta. A cross-sectional design with multistage random sampling was employed, involving 199 female students who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Hemoglobin levels were assessed using the cyanmethemoglobin method, while dietary intake of iron and vitamin A was measured through the Semi-Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQ-FFQ) to evaluate dietary habits. Statistical analysis revealed a significant association between iron intake and anemia (p-value= <0,001), whereas vitamin A intake showed no significant relationship (p-value= 0,132). The findings indicate that inadequate iron intake contributes to anemia in adolescent girls. Further research with larger sample sizes and longitudinal approaches is strongly recommended to elucidate the role of vitamin A and to inform more effective anemia prevention strategies
Analysis of the Relationship between Nutritional Status and Stress with the Menstrual Cycle in Adolescent Girls
No full textThe causes of menstrual cycle irregularities in adolescents are multifactorial, including nutritional status and stress levels. Irregular menstrual patterns, if left unaddressed, may have long-term implications for reproductive health. This study aimed to analyze the association between nutritional status and stress levels with menstrual cycle patterns in 127 adolescent girls aged 13–15 years from three private junior high schools within the service area of Bantar Community Health Center, Tasikmalaya City. A cross-sectional design was employed. Nutritional status was assessed using anthropometric measurements, stress levels were evaluated through the DASS questionnaire, and data on menstrual cycle regularity and intervals were collected via a structured questionnaire. Chi-square analysis indicated a significant correlation between nutritional status and menstrual cycle patterns (p-value = 0,027), with adolescents experiencing malnutrition showing a higher proportion of menstrual irregularities compared to those with normal nutritional status. Fisher’s exact test also demonstrated a significant association between stress levels and menstrual cycle patterns (p-value = 0,043), with adolescents exhibiting high stress levels having an increased risk of menstrual cycle disturbances. These findings underscore that imbalanced nutritional status and elevated stress levels can disrupt hormonal function and compromise menstrual cycle regularity in adolescent girls. Therefore, monitoring nutritional status and implementing stress management strategies are essential to support regular menstrual cycles and promote reproductive health in this population
Analysis of Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio and Platelet-Lymphocyte Ratio in Dengue-Infected Patients
No full textDengue infection, caused by the dengue virus and transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, remains a significant public health issue in Indonesia. The ability to identify reliable biomarkers for assessing disease severity is critical for improving clinical management. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) and Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR) as potential biomarkers of severity in dengue infection. An observational cross-sectional design was employed, analyzing 76 dengue cases at RSAU dr. Dody Sardjoto. Data were collected from medical records of patients during the critical fever period (days 4-7). The majority of patients were male and adult, with a higher incidence of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF). Statistical analysis showed no significant correlation between NLR and PLR with disease severity (p-value >0,05), although a positive correlation between NLR and PLR was observed. However, neither NLR nor PLR effectively predicted hospitalization duration. These results suggest that while NLR and PLR reflect immune responses in dengue infection, they are not suitable biomarkers for assessing disease severity. Further research is needed to identify more reliable biomarkers for better management of dengue infection
