The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in inequalities in mortality from infectious diseases and tuberculosis by educational level among men and women in Lithuania. Material and Methods. The data on mortality from infectious diseases in the Lithuanian population aged more than 30 years for the years 1989 and 2001 gathered from the Department of Statistics and censuses were used for the analysis. The relative and slope indices of inequality were calculated. Results. Mortality from infectious diseases and tuberculosis among persons with primary education was higher than that among persons with university education, and these inequalities were found to be increased in 2000–2002 as compare with 1988–1990 due to declining mortality among persons with university education and increasing mortality among less educated persons. Similar tendencies were observed while evaluating the inequalities in mortality from tuberculosis. In 1988– 1990, the relative indices of inequality for mortality from all infectious diseases and tuberculosis among men were 9 and 13, respectively. In 2000–2002, the relative indices of inequality increased significantly to 16.5 and 28.8, respectively. Inequalities in mortality from abovementioned causes for women with different educational levels were lower than those for men. The slope indices of inequality for mortality from infectious diseases among men with different educational levels were considerably higher than among their female counterparts, and in 2000–2002, they were greater compared with 1988–1990. Conclusions. While implementing tuberculosis prevention and control program and planning prevention and control measures, greater attention should be paid to less educated Lithuanian population at highest risk of this disease.

SUMMARY Dengue fever, a very old disease, has reemerged in the past 20 years with an expanded geographic distribution of both the viruses and the mosquito vectors, increased epidemic activity, the development of hyperendemicity (the cocirculation of multiple serotypes), and the emergence of dengue hemorrhagic fever in new geographic regions. In 1998 this mosquito-borne disease is the most important tropical infectious disease after malaria, with an estimated 100 million cases of dengue fever, 500,000 cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever, and 25,000 deaths annually. The reasons for this resurgence and emergence of dengue hemorrhagic fever in the waning years of the 20th century are complex and not fully understood, but demographic, societal, and public health infrastructure changes in the past 30 years have contributed greatly. This paper reviews the changing epidemiology of dengue and dengue hemorrhagic fever by geographic region, the natural history and transmission cycles, clinical diagnosis of both dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever, serologic and virologic laboratory diagnoses, pathogenesis, surveillance, prevention, and control. A major challenge for public health officials in all tropical areas of the world is to devleop and implement sustainable prevention and control programs that will reverse the trend of emergent dengue hemorrhagic fever.

Dengue fever, a very old disease, has re-emerged during past 20 years besides, an expanded geographic distribution of both the viruses and the mosquito vectors. With increased epidemic activity, the development of hyperendemicity (the co-circulation of multiple serotypes), and the emergence of dengue hemorrhagic fever in new geographic regions. In 1998 this mosquito-borne disease was the most important tropical infectious disease after malaria, with an estimated 100 million cases of dengue fever, 500,000 cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever, and 25,000 deaths annually. The reasons for this resurgence and emergence of dengue hemorrhagic fever in 21st century are complex and not fully understood, but demographic, societal, and public health infrastructure changes in the past 30 years have contributed greatly. Based on the data of National Vector Borne Disease Control Programme (NVBDCP), the number of cases reported in 2016 in India was about 1,11,880 for dengue with 227 deaths1. This paper reviews the changing epidemiology of dengue and dengue hemorrhagic fever by geographic region, the natural history and transmission cycles, clinical diagnosis of both dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever, serologic and virologic laboratory diagnoses, pathogenesis, surveillance, prevention, and control. Major challenges for public health officials in all tropical areas of the world is to develop and implement sustainable prevention and control programs that will reverse the trend of emergent dengue hemorrhagic fever.

ABSTRAKHuman Immunodeficiency Virus/Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrom (HIV/AIDS) merupakan salah satu masalah kesehatan di Indonesia termasuk di wilayah kabupaten Banyumas, Jawa Tengah. HIV/AIDS merupakan penyakit menular yang menyerang sistem kekebalan tubuh. Infeksi tersebut menyebabkan penderita mengalami penurunan ketahanan tubuh sehingga sangat mudah untuk terinfeksi berbagai macam penyakit lain. Sebelum memasuki fase AIDS, penderita terlebih dahulu dinyatakan sebagai HIV positif. Sejak bulan januari-juni tahun 2018 ditemukan kasus baru sebanyak 123 kasus. Sedangkan jumlah kasus komulatif sejak ditemukannya HIV/AIDS pada tahun 1993 hingga tahun 2018 sebanyak 1.146 kasus. Data kasus di Banyumas ini berasal dari laporan VCT (Voluntery Councelling and Test) dari Rumah sakit Prof. Margono Soekardjo dan RSUD Banyumas. Dalam aktivitas pencegahan dan penagguangan HIV/AIDS diperlukan strategi komunikasi. Karena strategi komunikasi merupakan salah satu aspek keberhasilan program pencegahan dan penanggulangan HIV/AIDS. Strategi komunikasi yang dilakukan oleh Pemerintah Kabupaten Banyumas belum memberikan pengaruh pada paradigma dikalangan masyarakat tentang HIV/AIDS. Sehingga tujuan dilakukannya pelatihan pada mitra adalah sebagai upaya meningkatkan kemampuan tehnik komunikasi tentang HIV/AIDS pada mitra dan penyebaran leaflet tentang pencegahan dan penatalaksanaan HIV/AIDS pada mitra. Hasil dari pelaksanaan pelatihan pada mitra didapatkan terdapat peningkatan pengetahuan dan teknik komunikasi. Metode yang digunakan dalam pelatihan meliputi ceramah, tanya jawab, diskusi dan penayangan video. Tahapan kegiatan dimulai dengan icebraking, pretest, penyampaian materi, praktik ketrampilan dan ditutup dengan posttest. Kata kunci: pelatihan; teknik komunikasi; HIV/AIDS ABSTRACTHuman Immunodeficiency Virus / Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (HIV / AIDS) is one of the health problems in Indonesia, including in the Banyumas district, Central Java. HIV / AIDS is an infectious disease that attacks the immune system. The infection causes the patient to experience a decrease in body resistance so that it is very easy to become infected with various other diseases. Before entering the AIDS phase, the patient must first be declared HIV positive. Since January-June 2018, 123 new cases were found. Meanwhile, the number of cumulative cases since the discovery of HIV / AIDS in 1993 to 2018 was 1,146 cases. The case data in Banyumas comes from the VCT (Voluntery Councelling and Test) report from Prof. Hospital. Margono Soekardjo and Banyumas Hospital. In HIV / AIDS prevention and control activities, a communication strategy is needed. Because the communication strategy is one aspect of the success of the HIV / AIDS prevention and control program. The communication strategy carried out by the Banyumas Regency Government has not yet influenced the paradigm among the community regarding HIV / AIDS. So that the aim of conducting training for partners is as an effort to improve communication technical skills on HIV / AIDS to partners and to distribute leaflets on HIV / AIDS prevention and management to partners. The results of the implementation of training on partners found that there was an increase in knowledge and communication techniques. The methods used in the training include lectures, question and answer, discussion and video viewing. The activity stages began with icebraking, pretest, delivery of material, practice skills and closed with a posttest. Keywords: training; communication techniques; HIV / AIDS

Evaluation of malaria risk factors prevention and control program in Kulon Progo RegencyPurposeThe purpose of this research was to evaluate the program of prevention and control of malaria risk factors in Kulon Progo District in 2016 based on system approach.MethodThis research was evaluation program used mixed methods (sequential explanatory design). Data collected from 7 public health center of active focus malaria and district health office. Respondents were program managers and head of public health center, district program managers, head of control and eradication of communicable diseases, and head of district health offices. The instruments used structured questionnaires and in-depth interview guides. Quantitative data analysis was descriptive and qualitative data used Miles and Huberman model.Results Most of the availability of human resources, funds, facilities, materials, and methods already meet implementation needs except entomologists, allocation of funds activities other than IRS, time of the implementation of larval fish deployment. Most of the processes that started from the planning, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation have gone well except for planning other than IRS, preparation vector control without entomology database, implementation of environmental management, larviciding, and larval fish deployment. Coverage of LLINs, coverage of IRS, control of LLINs efficacy, and test of vector resistance have met the target, except coverage of larviciding and larval fish deployment was not available.ConclusionPrevention and control program of malaria risk factors has implemented but wasn’t based on entomological data. District health offices should recruit entomologist to support vector control activities.

Abstract: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is one of the most serious health problems in Indonesia which often causes outbreaks with numerous deaths. The disease is transmitted byAedes sp.females. Generally, dengue virus transmission occurs horizontally from human carriers, and the dengue viruses are passed on bytheir vectors through blood sucking activity. After propagation in the mosquito, the viruses are transmitted to human recipients. In addition, there is a vertical transmission (transovarial) of dengue virusesin the ova of Aedes sp.females. The viruses propagate in the ova that undergo  metamorphosis to become larvae, pupae, and imagoes. The transovarial transmission of dengue virusesin its vectors in endemic areas could be a causative key which is responsible for the phenomenon of increasing cases of DHF. Any effort to prevent and control DHF requires a thorough understanding about virDen transmission, including this transovarial transmission in Aedes spfemales. Keywords: DHF, transovarial transmission, Aedes sp.     Abstrak: Penyakit Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD) merupakan salah satu masalah kesehatan yang semakin serius di Indonesia dan sering menimbulkan suatu Kejadian Luar Biasa (KLB) dengan jumlah kematian tinggi. Penyakit ditularkan melalui Aedes sp.betina. Transmisi virus dengue umumnya terjadi secara horizontal, yaitu dari manusia pembawa virus dengue ke nyamuk vektor Aedes sp. melalui aktivitasnya mengisap darahSetelah mengalami propagasi  dalam  tubuh nyamuk, virus dengue ditularkan ke  manusia penerima. Selain itu, transmisi virus dapat terjadi secara vertikal (transovarial) yaitu virus dengue dalam tubuh nyamuk vektorAedes sp. betinake ovum, kemudian berpropagasi dalam ovum, larva, pupa, dan imago. Transmisi transovarial virus dengueke vektornya di daerah endemik bisa menjadi kunci penyebab yang bertanggung jawab terhadap fenomena peningkatan kasus deman berdarah dengue. Upaya pencegahan dan penanggulangan DBD memerlukan pengetahuan yang matang tentang adanya infeksi transovarial virDen pada nyamuk Aedes sp. Kata kunci : DBD, transmisi transovarial,  Aedes sp.
