Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a contagious disease that is still a public health problem in Indonesia. The purpose of this study was to analyze factors associated with the incidence of dengue fever in the district Dringu Probolinggo. This study was an observational study with cross sectional study design. Sampling was done using cluster random sampling with multistage cluster random sampling method. The results showed that there are four variables related to the incidence of dengue that respondents’ knowledge about the incidence of dengue (p = 0.004), the action of the respondents on the prevention of dengue (p = 0.025), the use of gauze on ventilation (p = 0.035), and the presence of larvae at home respondents (p = 0.044). Knowledge of the respondents have been good, but there are some that are still lacking so it is necessary to increase the respondents’ knowledge about dengue fever. DBD has a good precaution, but there were respondents who still has a moderate value. The use of gauze on the ventilation is still lacking. Lack of use of gauze on ventilation due to ignorance of respondents with benefits gauze. Public Health Center (PHC) and Health Department should improve socialization activities such as outreach to increase public knowledge about the incidence of dengue in order to reduce the number of dengue incidence.

Obstetric Violence

Background: Obstetric violence is a worldwide public health problem, which seems greater in Spain. As no studies were found that identify the most representative healthcare professionals, times, and areas involved in obstetric violence, the objective of this work was to study at what time of maternity, with which professionals, and in what areas women identified obstetric violence. Methods: This descriptive, retrospective, and cross-sectional study was performed from January 2018 to June 2019. The main variables were the area (hospital, primary care, both), the time (pregnancy, birth, puerperium), and the professionals attending to women. Results: Our sample comprised 17,541 participants. The area identified with the most obstetric violence for the different studied variables was hospitals. Women identified more obstetric violence at time of birth. Findings such as lack of information and informed consent (74.2%), and criticism of infantile behavior and treatment (87.6%), stood out. The main identified healthcare professionals were midwives and gynecologists, and “other” professionals repeatedly appeared. Conclusions: Having identified the professionals, times, and areas of most obstetric violence in Spain, it seems necessary to reflect on not only the Spanish National Health System’s structure and management but also on healthcare professionals’ training.

Prevalence Of Anemia

Anemia is a global public health problem. The prevalence of anemia among different ages, genders or ethnic groups must be clarified in order to solve problems. This study proposed to determine the prevalence and factors related to anemia among the Muslim school-age population in Nakhon Si Thammarat, Thailand. Socio-demographic and anthropometric data were collected by a structured questionnaire. Blood samples were collected from 200 school-age subjects. The thalassemia screening was performed with KKU-OF and KKU-DCIP reagents. The prevalence of anemia in this study was 36.5%, divided into males and females, 33.3% and 39.1%, respectively. The means of Hb, Hct, MCV, MCH, and MCHC in the anemic group were significantly lower. The positive results for KKU-OF or KKU-DCIP or both were 15.0%, 2.5%, and 1.0%, respectively. The result of positive OF test was a significantly independent factor for anemia. The number of family members was 5 to 7 and more than 7 persons are related factors for anemia in this study. In summary, the contribution of thalassemia and socio-economic factor are associated factors to anemia in this population. These findings should be addressed in public health strategies for the control of anemia of school-aged Muslims in the region.

Background: Unsafe disposal of unused and expired household medicines is a public health problem and mostly occur because of a lack of knowledge towards suitable medicine disposal methods. Thus, we aimed to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practices on the disposal methods of unused and expired medicines among students in public academic institutions in Lusaka, Zambia.Methods: This was a cross-sectional study in which 385 students from three higher learning academic institutions were interviewed face to face using a structured questionnaire from 10th May to 24th June 2019. The cleaned data was then transferred to statistical package for social science (SPSS) version 25.0 for analysis.Results: The mean age of the participants was 23 (SD±2.9). Out of the 385 participants, 215 (55.8%) did not know much about medical waste and 345 (89.6%) of them did not have any previous information regarding proper and safe disposal of unused and expired medicine. However, 351 (91.4%) of the participants appropriately responded that unsafe disposal of unused and expired medicine poses a threat to human health and can harm the environment. Throwing unused and expired medicine in household garbage/bin was the most frequently used disposal practice followed by flushing them in toilet/sink as responded by 231 (60.0%) and 128 (33.3%) of participants respectively. Only 17 (4.42%) reported returning unused and expired medicines to the nearest pharmacy.  Conclusions: The majority of the study participants used unsafe methods to dispose of unused and expired medicine. However, most of the participants acknowledged that unsafe disposal of unused and expired medicines is a public health problem and proposed the need to introduce drug take-back programs in the communities.

Kasus diare terus meningkat di Kota Makassar sebanyak 23.334 kasus ditahun 2016. Balita menjadi kelompok yang rentan terhadap diare. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui kontaminasi bakteri Escherichia coli pada botol susu dengan kejadian diare pada balita di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Kaluku Bodoa Kota Makassar Tahun 2018. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah observasional dengan desain cross sectional study. Populasi adalah seluruh balita yang berada di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Kaluku Bodoa. Sampel adalah balita yang memakai botol susu yang dipilih menggunakan teknik proportional random sampling, sebanyak 72 anak balita. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tidak dapat melihat hubungan Escherichia coli pada botol dikarenakan seluruh sampe terdapat Escherichia coli dan tidak memenuhi  syarat,  sedangkan pada proses  pencucian (p=0.007), penyimpanan botol (p=0.041), menyiapkan botol (p=0.100), penyediaan air bersih (p=0.904), kebiasaan cuci tangan pakai sabun (p=0.229). Kesimpulan dari penelitian bahwa tidak dapat melihat perbandingan Escherichia coli pada botol susu dikarenakan seluruh sample terdapat bakteri E.coli. Terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara pencucian dan  menyiapkan botol susu dengan kejadian diare pada balita di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Kaluku Bodoa Kota Makassar Tahun 2018. Penelitian ini menyarankan agar para ibu atau wali anak lebih memperhatikan cara pencucian botol susu dan  penyiapan botol susu.
