Lalat: Vektor yang Terabaikan Program?
Flies coexist with humans since long times ago are associated with sanitation problems and also clean and healthy living behavior (PHBS). Program support in term of fly control should be improved. This article is a literature review which discussed the role of flies as pest and vectors that spread various diseases and their interests as program targets and the latest program situation also all aspects as well as how to control them. Some studies said that flies can contain many types of pathogenic microbes in their bodies. Most pathogens in the body of flies are bacteria, fungi, viruses, and worm parasites. Flies also contribute to the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The most effective strategy in reducing the population of flies is the improvement of environmental sanitation and improvement of hygiene behavior. Program support is expected to improve fly vector control services and the participation of the community, in general, is expected to be more active in overcoming this problem.
ABSTRAKLalat merupakan serangga yang kehidupannya dekat dengan manusia dan seringkali dikaitkan dengan masalah sanitasi dan perilaku hidup bersih dan sehat (PHBS). Dukungan program masih kurang dalam hal pengendalian vektor lalat. Artikel ini berupa studi literature review yang membahas peranan lalat sebagai hama pengganggu dan vektor penyebar berbagai penyakit, kepentingannya sebagai target program, pencegahan dan pengendalian lalat, serta situasi program terkait pengendalian lalat. Beberapa studi menyebutkan bahwa lalat dapat mengandung banyak jenis mikroba patogen dalam tubuhnya sekaligus. Sebagian besar patogen pada tubuh lalat adalah bakteri, jamur, virus, dan parasit cacing. Lalat juga berkontribusi terhadap penyebaran bakteri yang resisten terhadap antibiotik. Strategi paling efektif dalam menurunkan populasi lalat adalah perbaikan sanitasi lingkungan dan perbaikan pola perilaku hidup bersih dan sehat. Dukungan program diharapkan dapat meningkatkan layanan pengendalian vektor lalat dan peran serta masyarakat pada umumnya diharapkan lebih aktif terhadap penanggulangan masalah ini
ANALISIS GENDER DAN UMUR PADA ANAK SEKOLAH DASAR NEGERI KAMPUNG BARU, KEC. KUSAN HILIR, KAB. TANAH BUMBU TERHADAP INFEKSI CACING DAN ATOPI GENDER AND AGE ANALYSIS OF CHILDREN OF SDN KAMPUNG BARU, KUSAN HILIR SUB DISTRICT, TANAH BUMBU DISTRICT TO HELMINTH
ABSTRAK Penyakit infeksi cacing merupakan penyakit terabaikan yang masih tinggi di Indonesia.Sanitasi dan kurangnya perilaku sehat menjadi penentu utama penyakit ini.Atopi yang dinyatakan berkaitan dengan infeksi cacing ini juga cukup tinggi di Indonesia.Atopi atau alergi dikaitan dengan kejadian akut dan kronis infeksi cacing.Gender dan umur diduga berkaitan pula dengan hubungan infeksi cacing dan atopi. Penelitian ini ingin mengetahui keterkaitan gender dan kelompok umur anak sekolah terhadap infeksi cacing dan atopi sebagai bahan pertimbangan kebijakan program pengendalian infeksi cacing pada anak usia sekolah dan mengetahui efek infeksi cacing itu sendiri terhadap timbulnya suatu atopi. Kegiatan penelitian dilaksanakan pada bulan Maret-April 2011 dengan desain penelitian potong lintang.Sampel pada penelitian ini adalah murid kelas 3-5 Sekolah Dasar Negeri Kampung Baru, Kec. Kusan Hilir, Kab. Tanah Bumbu. Setiap anak dibagikan pot tinja untuk mendapatkan tinjanya dan diambil darahnya.Tinja diperiksa keberadaan telur cacing dan darah diambil serumnya untuk diperiksa dengan prosedur ELISA untuk menentukan status atopi.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa anak laki-laki lebih rentan terhadap infeksi cacing dan atopi, demikian pula anak dengan umur lebih muda, lebih rentan terinfeksi cacing dan menderita atopi dibandingkan dengan anak yang berusia lebih tua.Kedua penyakit berkaitan dengan faktor sanitasi dan perilaku hidup bersih dan sehat.Direkomendasikan untuk meningkatkan program pengobatan infeksi cacing secara menyeluruh setiap enam bulan, meningkatkan sosialisasi perilaku hidup bersih dan sehat, memperbanyak fasilitas cucitangan ditempat-tempat umum, memperbaiki sanitasi lingkungan agar lebih sehat, dan lebih sering melakukan surveilans infeksi cacing pada anak sekolah. ABSTRACT Helminth infection still remain neglected disease which high prevalence in Indonesia. Lacks of sanitation and health behavior are main factors to this disease. Atopy stated correlating with helminth infection which either high prevalence in Indonesia. Atopy or allergy related with helminth infection acute and chronic. Gender and age suggested relating with correlation between helminth infection and atopy.The aim of the study is determined correlation gender and age factor toward helminth infection and atopy as the consideration policy to control this diseases and study the effect of helminth infection to atopy. The cross sectional study held on March-April 2011. Sample wasstudent grade 3-5 at Sekolah Dasar Negeri Kampung Baru, Kec. Kusan Hilir, Kab. Tanah Bumbu. Each child given feces container and their blood drawn up to revealed serum. Feces examined to found worm eggs and serum examined by ELISA to determine the atopic status.The result showed that boys more prone to both helminth infection and atopy than the girls, also the younger children more susceptible to helminth infection and atopi than the older ones. Both diseases related to sanitation and health behavior. Enhanced entire helminth infection cure is advice each six month gradually,increase health behavior education, upgrade the public sanitation in order to give more cleanly and healthy public area, and more often carry out the surveillances progra
Program Eliminasi Lymphatic Filariasis di Indonesia
Filariasis has been a public health problem in Indonesia for a long time and WHO has established this disease as a neglected disease which is a public health problem in the world, therefore a global filariasis elimination program that must be achieved in 2020. This article compiles some literature for writing references related to the development of global filariasis elimination and the progress of filariasis elimination in Indonesia particularly. Filariasis elimination program in Indonesia has been running at least 26 districts that have stopped implementing mass drug administration (MDA) from 239 endemic filariasisdistricts. The remaining districts are expected to have implemented MDAstart from 2015 so that the year 2020 is completed and verified also given predicates of filariasis elimination according to global target of filariasis elimination. Management-based and community-based research is important to determine the best model of elimination. There are still many challenges in increasing coverage, so that continuing education efforts on filariasis and the importance of treatment will motivate communities to play an active role in achieving maximum coverage targets, and national filariasis elimination targets can be achieved by 2020
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
