Background Helminth infection remains a health problem, especially in school-aged children. Mass eradication programs with a single dose of anti-helminthic drugs were employed by the local government in some endemic areas in Bali. However, the effectiveness of the programs has not been well evaluated.Objective To investigate prevalence and possible risk factors of helminth infection, including nutritional status, in elementary school students from endemic areas who participated in mass eradication programs.Methods This cross-sectional study involved 126 students from Elementary School No. 3 Gegelang, Karangasem, Bali, a location that had recently undergone a mass eradication program. Diagnoses were based on direct smear examination of fecal specimens. Information on suspected risk factors and nutritional status were collected by questionnaire and anthropometric measurement, respectively. Statistical analyses included Chi-square and odds ratio, using SPSS v21 software.Results The prevalence of helminth infection was 31.7% with etiologies of Trichuris trichuria (75%), Ascaris lumbricoides (17.5%), or both infections (7.5%). Habits of not using footwear [OR=4.88; 95%CI 1.15 to 20.65], not keeping nails trimmed [OR=3.33; 95%CI 1.07 to 10.37], and absence of a proper toilet [OR=4.31; 95%CI 1.93 to 9.64] were found to be significant risk factors for helminth infection. However, we found no significant association between helminth infection and nutritional status, although a considerable number of students had less than normal reference values, in terms of weight, height, and BMI for age.Conclusion The prevalence of helminth infection continues to be high, with personal hygiene and sanitation as significant risk factors. History of mass eradication programs did not confer an effective protection against helminth infection.

Background: The prevalence of Soil Transmitted Helminth (STH) infections in Indonesia is still high, especially in elementary school children in North Sumatra Province.  STH infection is thought to cause harm to nutrient requirements due to lack of calories, causing health and nutritional conditions to decline. Purposes: To determine the relationship of STH infection with nutritional status in 105926 State Elementary School students. Method: Analytic observational with cross sectional design.  Sampling uses a total sampling method, with a total sample of 87 people.  Nutritional status was determined by the CDC-NCHS 2000 growth curve and the determination of the STH infection used the Kato-Katz examination method.  Results: 26 samples (29,9%) were positive and 61 samples (70,1%) were negative for STH infections.  Positive samples infected with STH have nutritional status that is dominated by moderate and good nutritional status. Conclusion: There is no correlation between STH infection and nutritional status in 105296 State Elementary School students in Percut Sei Tuan District, Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra.

A decrease in concentration, motivation and academic success is a common occurrence with elementary school pupils. This is most noticeable in STEM lessons, particularly in Maths. Teachers resort to various teaching approaches in order to motivate students. However, teachers often realize such approaches bring no significant success in the classroom due to a lack of interest on the part of the students. The motivation and success of students can be increased by grouping the students within heterogeneous classes, which is frequently used with younger elementary school students. The article features a description of three different activities, which can be used to make Maths lessons more appealing when given to students in groups. At first, the activities might not seem related to Maths, but try them as they are great examples of activities, which increase mathematical thought. Described activities are Mud Town, Map Colouring and Ice Cream Stands.
