Association Between Patterns of Electronic Cigarette Use and Recurrent Bronchitis Among Young Adults
No full textElectronic cigarette use has become increasingly prevalent among young adults, raising concerns about its potential impact on respiratory health. This study aimed to investigate the association between patterns of electronic cigarette use and the occurrence of recurrent bronchitis symptoms in young adults. A quantitative analytic study with a cross-sectional approach was conducted involving 150 respondents aged 18–25 years. Participants were selected using purposive sampling, and data were collected through structured questionnaires. The variables measured included frequency of e-cigarette use and incidence of recurrent bronchitis symptoms. Data analysis involved Chi-square tests and Spearman correlation to examine the relationship between vaping patterns and respiratory complaints. The results showed a significant association between frequent e-cigarette use (≥4 times per week) and the presence of recurrent bronchitis symptoms, with a Spearman correlation value indicating a strong positive relationship. Regular users were found to be four times more likely to experience bronchitis than occasional or non-users. These findings suggest that habitual vaping may lead to bronchial irritation and inflammation, contributing to the onset of recurrent bronchitis. In conclusion, frequent electronic cigarette use poses a substantial risk to respiratory health among young adults and warrants greater public health attention.
 
Development Nutritional Evaluation and Acceptability of Moringa Moringa oleifera and Eel Monopterus albus Meatballs as a Functional Food for Stunted Toddlers
No full textABSTRACT
Stunting remains a major nutritional problem in Indonesia with a relatively high prevalence, particularly in South Sulawesi. One cause is low nutritional intake in toddlers. Moringa leaves (Moringa oleifera) and eel (Monopterus albus) are local foods rich in protein, iron, and vitamins, but their utilization remains low. This study aims to determine the nutritional content and acceptability of a combination of moringa leaf and eel meatballs as a functional food for stunted toddlers. The study used an experimental design with two formulations: F1 (300 g eel: 30 g moringa leaves) and F2 (150 g eel: 15 g moringa leaves). Nutritional analysis was conducted in the laboratory, while acceptability testing was conducted on 6 mothers and 6 toddlers using a hedonic test. Laboratory test results showed that F1 had a higher protein content (5.68%) than F2 (4.02%), while F2 had higher carbohydrate (26.35%) and energy (125.17 kcal) than F1 (97.48 kcal). Organoleptic tests showed that respondents liked the color and texture of the meatballs (liked), while the aroma and flavor were quite liked. Thus, the combination of moringa leaf and eel meatballs has the potential to be a locally based functional food alternative to support toddler nutrition and can be used as an innovative strategy to reduce stunting rates in Indonesia.
