    Background: Osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures are an important public health concern in the elderly, especially in post-menopausal women. Screening for osteoporosis might help to detect those at risk for fractures to be promptly managed. WHO has developed a tool to screen risk for osteoporosis, i.e. the Osteoporosis Self-assessment Tool (OST) that has also been validated for Asians (OSTA). WHO has also developed FRAX® to predict 10-years risk of hip fracture or other osteoporotic a fracture. Method: This study was intended to assess the correlation between OSTA and FRAX®. This cross-sectional study was performed in October-December 2013 in all public health centers (Puskesmas) in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. We invited all women aged 56 years or above visiting the outpatient clinic of the Puskesmas during the study period. Overall, 540 elderly women completed the anthropometric measurements and questionnaires of FRAX®. Results: OSTA scores showed that more than 40% were at high risk for osteoporosis. This study observed high and significant correlations between OSTA and FRAX® for hip fracture, i.e. Spearman correlation of 0,914; p<0,001 and for other osteoporotic fractures, i.e. Spearman correlation of 0,769; p<0,001. Conclusion: We concluded that OSTA and FRAX® were highly correlated and both can be used to screen women for osteoporosis and risk for fractures, respectively

Menoreh Hills is a cross-border administrative area, Central Java Province and Yogyakarta Special Region Province which has its own authority in financial management and budget allocation for malaria control. Furthermore, spatial analysis is very beneficial in controlling malaria, presenting geographic distribution of the disease, testing whether malaria is randomly distributed, evaluating the statistical significance of the disease cluster and showing as an early detection of outbreaks. Method: It applied an observational study with cross sectional spatial analysis design to observe the spreading, grouping pattern and the correlation between house distance to mosquito breeding and population density. The samples collected were 138 malaria cases and 138 controls. It required measurement of the coordinates to the house with GPS, identified breeding spots for mosquitoes around the house and collected the date data of malaria diagnosed in District Health Services. The location of the study covered 3 sub-districts as Malaria endemic areas namely Kaligesing, Bagelen and Kokap Sub-districs. Analysis of the data was conducted through ArcGIS, SaTScan dan Geoda softwares.
