Statistical analysis software SPSS V 16.0 was used. Descriptive & inferential statistical analysis was performed on categorical and continuous data. Chi-square, independent sample T tests and ANOVA test were used to compare the distribution of caries and OHI-S between different groups. P value less than 0.05 (p<0.05) was considered to be significant. Socioeconomic status was also calculated.Results: In the present study it was found that the there was almost an equal distribution of prevalence of myths in the educated as well as uneducated patients .Also the ratio of existence of myths was found higher in females as compared to males.Conclusions: Existence of myths and taboos regarding dental health has started decreasing among the urban population due to the widespread of awareness regarding dentistry.But still there is prevalence of some myths in the patients having primary education as compared to patients having secondary and tertiary education.

Hepatitis B remains as one of health problem in the world. The results of several studies related to factors in predicting of timely hepatitis B immunization were still inconsistent. Aim of this study is to identify determinant of timely hepatitis B zero dose immunization in East Lombok. We used cross sectional design study derived from immunization coverage survey at six districts/cities in 2013. A Total of 227 children aged 12 to 23 months who already got immunization of hepatitis B zero dose and well documented were included as samples in this study. Timely immunization was defined based on the distance between time of birth and time of received hepatitis B immunization (zero dose) that is within 24 hours after birth. Data was analyzed using Chi-square and Logistic regression in multivariate level. The result of this study showed only 60.4% of children were get timely hepatitis B zero dose immunization. Mother’s behavior agains immunization program is the only factor that can predict the timely hepatitis B zero dose immunization (P-value 0.007 CI 95% 1.94-3.62). Meanwhile, other factors i.e. sex, socio-economic status, parent’s education, knowledge and attitude of mother and place of immunization service have not able to predict the outcome, statistically.

Abstract: Gold is a mining commodity that has a high value. Tatelu’s gold processing is traditionally done with tromol machines that produce high intensity continous noise. Noise is a trigger of stress, which is one of the causes of dyspepsia. This study aimed to find out the relationship between continous noise exposure of the mining tromol and dyspepsia complaints among Tatelu villagers. The study was done by using a cross sectional design. The samples were divided into two groups: the control and the exposed groups. Each group consisted of 20 people. Interviews used structured questionnaires, and dyspepsia diagnostics were based on  Rome Consensus III. The characteristics of samples and the prevalence of dyspepsia complaints were assessed using univariate analysis. Chi square was used to assess the relationship between continous noise exposure of the tromols with complaints of dyspepsia. The results showed that in residential areas exposed to noise, 70% of the samples had complaints of dyspepsia, while in the control area there were only 25%. The results of the statistical analysis using the Chi square showed the value x2count (8.12) > x2table (3.84) and the P-value = 0.004 < 0.05 with α < 5%. Conclusion: There was a significant relationship between the continous noise exposure from the gold tromols with the complaints of dyspepsia among Tatelu villagers. Keywords: noise, stress, dyspepsia.     Abstrak: Emas merupakan komoditi tambang yang mempunyai nilai tinggi.
