Susceptibility Antibiotics of Bacteria Causing Urinary Tract Infection in Pregnant Women Infected with COVID-19
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a significant issue in women of all ages, but they are especially common during pregnancy. Co-infection of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) with UTIs in pregnant females is a hot topic today, as it may be linked to various conditions. Furthermore, understanding the types of bacteria that cause UTIs and related antimicrobial resistance may aid the clinician in selecting the appropriate empirical treatment. This study aimed to isolate and characterize causative agents of UTIs and determine antimicrobial treatment sensitivity patterns among pregnant women diagnosed with the COVID-19 admitted to Teaching Hospital X in Iraq. Antimicrobial drug resistance testing was performed on 42 mid-stream urine samples that had been prepared for culture. Escherichia coli (18/42.85%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (9/21.45%), Streptococcus galactica (7/16.66%), and Proteus mirabilis (4/9.52%) were the bacteria isolated and diagnosed from pregnant women. The infections Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus were the least common (2/4.7). In conclusion, the isolated uro-pathogens showed high resistance to Gentamicin, Cefuroxime, Ceftriaxone and sensitive to Ampicillin and Nitrofurantoin. The common cause of UTIs among pregnant women infected with the COVID-19 was discovered to be E. coli. Before recommending therapy, culture and sensitivity testing of isolates from urine tests should be conducted on a regular basis
Perspectives on Reproductive Health Education among Javanese Parents
This study aimed to investigate the perspectives of reproductive health education among Javanese parents of children aged 9-11 years. This cross-sectional study was conducted with 12,306 parents in Semarang City, Central Java Province, Indonesia, using a purposive sampling technique. Some parents agreed that reproductive health education at home was unnecessary (29.5%), taboo (45%), difficult (73.1%), and awkward (41.5%). Most parents (72.7%) were not transparent in providing reproductive health information to their children by using other terms to name the genitals, considering the politeness aspect. Good practices of providing reproductive health information are slightly more common in mothers (54.2%), unemployed parents (52.9%), those with a higher education level (69.5%), and those with a family income above the regional minimum wage (59.8%). As many as 76.9% of parents intensely monitor their children; however, 60.63% of parents have poor communications with their children. Parents believe that reproductive health information is essential for their children, but parents find the topic difficult with their children due to taboos and awkward feelings. Accordingly, the Indonesian Ministry of Health should empower parents to discuss reproductive health issues with their children openly

ANALYSIS OF PROLANIS POLICY IMPLEMENTATION DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC IN 2021
Data from Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) in 2018 shows that Diabetes and Hypertension dominate chronic diseases. The Director of BPJS Kesehatan has issued Circular No. 14 of 2020 concerning health services for national health insurance participants during the COVID-19 prevention period, especially Prolanis. The policy contains an appeal to postpone the provision of services in the form of mass gathering activities such as Prolanis Gymnastics, Club Education, and and other activities. Hence, this research is needed to describe the implementation of Prolanis policies during the COVID-19 Pandemic. The study used a descriptive research design with qualitative methods and George C. Edward III's theory of policy implementation model. The number of informants is 11 people. The data collection is done using observation, in-depth interviews, and document review. The study was conducted in May-June 2022 at the Krui Health Center, Pesisir Barat Regency, Lampung Province. The findings show that Prolanis activities, which were stopped during the COVID-19 Pandemic, resulted in uncontrolled hypertension and diabetes in the participants. There are also many Prolanis implementing officers and supervisors who are not aware of Circular 14 of 2020. This transmission failure resulted in implementing the policy not fully running correctly

Cognitive Function in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients Taking Metformin and Metformin-Sulfonylurea
The most prescribed antidiabetic drugs in Indonesian primary health care are metformin or a combination of metformin and sulfonylurea. Studies on metformin have shown various impacts on cognitive decline in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, whereas sulfonylurea has been shown to reduce this impact. This study aimed to compare the impacts of metformin and metformin-sulfonylurea on cognitive function and determine what factors affected it. This cross-sectional study was conducted at Pasar Minggu Primary Health Care involving 142 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients taking metformin or metformin-sulfonylurea for > 6 months and aged > 36 years. Cognitive function was assessed using the validated Montreal Cognitive Assessment Indonesian version. The effects of metformin and metformin-sulfonylurea on cognitive decline showed no significant difference, even after controlling for covariates (aOR = 1.096; 95% CI = 0.523–2.297; p-value = 0.808). Multivariate analysis showed age (OR = 4.131; 95% CI = 1.271–13.428; p-value = 0.018) and education (OR = 2.746; 95% CI = 1.196–6.305; p-value = 0.017) affected cognitive function. Since a lower education and older age are likely to cause cognitive decline, health professionals are encouraged to work with public health experts to address these risk factors for cognitive function
