Cox Regression untuk Mengetahui Besaran Risiko Terjadinya Kekambuhan Kembali (Relaps) Penyalahgunaan Narkoba

Relapse happened because of factor that affected an addict back to the previous state. Recurrence rate off an addict that had been treated on a various therapeutic center and rehabilitation was higher from 60% until 80%. Relapse occurred when an individual returned to his/her pattern of addiction or back to deviant behavior. The purpose of this research is identifying factors that can affect relapse. This research is analytic observational research using cross sectional design. The data were collected from 30 people who still undergo the rehabilitation. Data analysis of this research is using cox regression. Result of this research showed that someone who has medium level of knowledge has a risk to get relapse 41.26 times higher than someone who has a lower level of knowledge. Respondent with high level of knowledge might got relapse 1.4 times higher than respondent that has a low level of knowledge. While the variable of a medium peer environment showed risk of 3.31 times higher got a relapse than a high peer environment. Respondent that has a low peer environment might got relapse 1.45 higher than a high peer environment. In this reseach, there are two factors that can affect relapse event, those factors were the level of knowledge and peer environment. The biggest risk for an addict to get their relapse is knowledge, so that the knowledge of narcotics should be given more and also to make their peer environment support them in avoiding the narcotics.

Abstract Background: More than half of all deaths in under 5 children is related to malnutrition. One of the ways to reduce child malnutrition is regular monitoring of the growth and development of children through the utilisation of growth monitoring and promotion (GMP) services by mothers/care givers. We evaluated mothers’ knowledge on GMP, utilisation and associated factors among mother-child pairs from a poor socio-economic district in Northern Ghana. Methods: Using an analytical cross-sectional design, participants included mothers with children aged 0-59 months, grouped into 0-11 months, 12-24 months and 24-59 months. A semi-structured questionnaire containing both closed- and open-ended questions was used to collect data. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify determinants of GMP utilisation. Results: Four hundred mother-child pairs were included in the study. Overall, 28.5% (n=114) of the mothers utilized GMP services. Almost 60%(n=237) of the mothers knew the recommended age to seek for GMP service for their children. Only 9% of the mothers could correctly interpret the directions of the growth curves in their children’s Health Record booklet. Mothers with children aged 0-11 years were 3.9 times more likely (p=0.009) to utilize GMP services compared to their counterparts with children aged 12-23 months and 24-59 months. Mothers who had low level of knowledge were 2.19 times (p = 0.003) more likely to utilise GMP services compared to their counterparts with high level of education. Conclusion: Utilisation of GMP services was low and particularly lower in children aged 24-59 months. Mothers’ knowledge in GMP was optimal although there were notable gaps.

Haul dumptruck is a heavy-duty vehicles which is used to haul the overburden from loading point to disposal area. Haul dumptruck is driven by operators who have a high enough workload risk, especially on mental activity. The purpose of this study was to learn the correlation between mental workload with fatigue complaints of PT. MKP haul dumptruck operators at PKP2B PT. Mandiri Intiperkasa Site Krassi, Tarakan, Kalimantan Utara. This research was an analytic observational research with cross sectional design. The Sample of this research was 110 PT. MKP haul dumptruck operators at PKP2B PT. Mandiri Intiperkasa Site Krassi. The Variables of this research were individual factors (age, gender, and years of service), mental workload, and fatigue complaints. The data were analyzed by spearman correlation test to analyze the correlation between variables. The results showed 50% of haul dumptruck operators were 35-44 years old, 100% male, and 32.7% had 7-10 years of service. Most of haul dumptruck operators (58.2%) had very high mental workload levels and 68.2% was having low-grade fatigue complaints. The significant ρ value of the spearman test between mental workload and fatigue complaints was 0,400, while the correlation coefficient value was -0,081. The conclusion of this reasearch indicated that there was not a significant correlation between mental workload and fatigue complaints on haul dumptruck operators.

It is necessary to understand early perception, behavior, and knowledge of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and preventive practices in relation to suggested policies and information accessible to the Palestinian population during the early stages of the pandemic. The aim of this research is to contribute to this understanding for the purpose of affecting future practical preventive policies that can be implemented and adapted in Palestine in order to shape a new reflective practices model to face any future epidemic crisis of any type. A cross-sectional design was used to conduct the study over 3 weeks in April 2020 and an online survey was disseminated in all areas of Palestine. A total of 1040 responses were collected from persons who were over 18 years of age. A high level of knowledge related to COVID-19 was found, including symptoms and characteristics of the virus, prevention practices, and at-risk groups. Respondents believe that they are more susceptible to influenza than COVID-19 and more likely to be infected by the influenza virus than the COVID-19 virus but expect that infection of influenza would be less severe than infection of COVID-19. Respondents were more inclined to find COVID-19 worrying and stressful than they were to find it fear-inducing. Around two-thirds of respondents believe that different types of COVID-19-related conspiracy theories are true to some degree. Going forward, it is crucial and essential to provide basic awareness among large populations around diseases, which can contribute to positively influencing people’s knowledge and attitudes and their perception toward such diseases and combat conspiracy theories.

BACKGROUND: Globally, family planning is one of the most important public health issues in both developed and developing countries due to high unmet needs. OBJECTIVE: To assess the level of knowledge, attitudes and practice (KAP) towards family planning among women of reproductive age in Suva, Fiji. METHODS: The study applies a cross-sectional quantitative method using a self-administered questionnaire to collect data. Using random sampling, a sample of 325 women was used for the study and they were sought from three health clinics in Suva, Fiji. The questionnaire was administered to the respondents who met the inclusion criteria and they provided information that mostly involved rating the different issues and identifying their level of KAP. This data was analyzed using the statistics program SPSS version 25. RESULTS: The mean age of the participants was 31.53 (±7.35) years. A majority of the participants (64.6%) belonged to a Christian church while 65.2% belonged to iTaukei ethnic group. Approximately half of them (45.6%) had a high level of knowledge while 53.5% had moderate knowledge with only 0.9% reporting that they had poor knowledge. In terms of attitudes, 54.2% of the participants had high level or positive attitudes towards family planning with only a small proportion of 0.3% had low level or poor attitudes. In terms of practice, a majority of the participants (65.9%) had medium level of practice towards family planning while 24.6% showed a poor level with 9.5% having a high or good level of practice towards family planning. CONCLUSIONS: This study identified that women had medium level of knowledge and practice towards family planning, but their attitude was relatively high. Using behavioral change models such as health belief model (HBM) that focus on perceived benefits and barriers may help to promote KAP towards family planning among Fijian women.
