Abstrak:Indonesia merupakan salah satu negara yang memiliki kasus HIV/AIDS yang tinggi di dunia. Kelompok remaja memiliki resiko yang besar terhadap penyebaran kasus tersebut. SMAN 1 Parigi merupakan salah satu SMA yang memiliki siswa terbanyak di Pangandaran. SMA Negeri 1 Parigi sebagian besar siswa memiliki perilaku acuh pada isu HIV/AIDS, sedangkan Pangandaran merupakan kota yang memiliki tingkat HIV/AIDS yang tinggi yang seharusnya para remaja memiliki tingkat kepedulian yang tinggi pula mengenai isu tersebut. Perilaku acuh siswa tentang isu bahaya HIV/AIDS dimungkinkan karena kurangnya pengetahuan siswa tentang HIV/AIDS. Tujuan dari kegiatan pengabdian ini adalah untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan siswa SMAN 1 Parigi dalam mencegah penularan HIV/AIDS. Metode pendidikan kesehatan yang digunakan adalah dengan cara ceramah dan diskusi. Sebelum dan sesudah ceramah dilakukan pre dan post test sebagai bentuk evaluasi mengukur sejauh mana peningkatan pengetahuan siswa SMAN 1 Parigi terkait materi yang disampaikan. Hasil dari pendidikan kesehatan yang dilaksanakan adalah adanya peningkatan pengetahuan siswa tentang HIV/AIDS di SMAN I Parigi.  Rata rata nilai pengetahuan siswa sebelum dilaksanakan pendidikan kesehatan adalah sebesar 6,8 point. Setelah dilakukan pendidikan kesehatan rata rata nilai pengetahuan  siswa meningkat menjadi 8,7 point. Peningkatan pengetahuan tersebut merupakan dampak positif pada siswa SMAN 1 Parigi dalam pencegahan penularan HIV/AIDS. Dengan pengetahuan yang dimilikinya diharapkan siswa akan peduli kepada lingkungan tempat tinggalnya untuk mencegah penularan HIV/AIDS.Abstract: Indonesia is one of the countries with high HIV/AIDS cases in the world. Youth groups have a big risk of causing these cases. SMAN 1 Parigi is one of the high schools with the most students in Pangandaran. Most of the students at SMA Negeri 1 Parigi have an ignorant attitude towards HIV/AIDS. At the same time, Pangandaran is a city with a high HIV/AIDS rate, where teenagers should have a high level of concern about the issue. Students 'indifferent behavior about HIV/AIDS dangers is possible because of the students' lack of knowledge about HIV/AIDS. This service activity aims to increase SMAN 1 Parigi students' knowledge in preventing HIV/AIDS transmission. The health education method used is lectures and discussions. Before and after the lecture was conducted, pre and post-tests were carried out as a form of evaluation to measure the extent to which SMAN 1 Parigi students' increase in knowledge regarding the material presented. The result of the health education implemented was an increase in students' knowledge about HIV/AIDS at SMAN I Parigi. The average value of students' knowledge before implementing health education was 6.8 points. After carried out health education, the average value of students' knowledge increased to 8.7 points. This increase in knowledge positively impacts students of SMAN 1 Parigi in preventing HIV/AIDS transmission. With the knowledge they have, it is hoped that students will care about their environment to avoid HIV/AIDS transmission.

This article presents the results of a study the purpose of which was research of the factors and patterns of aggression in adolescence. Its results are required to find personas, who need preventive work, and features of the system of preventive measures, depending on the structure of the target audience. In 2016 there were 721 respondents who took part in the study, and 1437 in 2019. The method used in this study is the Buss-Durkee test modified by G. V. Rezapkina (BDHI). Results of the study clearly demonstrate that amongst young people there is a high-level spread of severe irritation, especially among young women. Also, the predominance of such components of aggression as negativity and irritation was noted. According to the results, young women more often get irritated than young men, and on the scale of “negativism”, there is no significant differences. Physical aggression was discovered to be more characteristic for young men.

Abstract Background Different forms of mosquito modifications are being considered as potential high-impact and low-cost tools for future malaria control in Africa. Although still under evaluation, the eventual success of these technologies will require high-level public acceptance. Understanding prevailing community perceptions of mosquito modification is, therefore, crucial for effective design and implementation of these interventions. This study investigated community perceptions regarding genetically-modified mosquitoes (GMMs) and their potential for malaria control in Tanzanian villages where no research or campaign for such technologies has yet been undertaken. Methods A mixed-methods design was used, involving: (i) focus group discussions (FGD) with community leaders to get insights on how they frame and would respond to GMMs, and (ii) structured questionnaires administered to 490 community members to assess awareness, perceptions and support for GMMs for malaria control. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize the findings and thematic content analysis was used to identify key concepts and interpret the findings. Results Nearly all survey respondents were unaware of mosquito modification technologies for malaria control (94.3%), and reported no knowledge of their specific characteristics (97.3%). However, community leaders participating in FGDs offered a set of distinctive interpretive frames to conceptualize interventions relying on GMMs for malaria control. The participants commonly referenced their experiences of cross-breeding for selecting preferred traits in domestic plants and animals. Preferred GMMs attributes included the expected reductions in insecticide use and human labour. Population suppression approaches, requiring as few releases as possible, were favoured. Common concerns included whether the GMMs would look or behave differently than wild mosquitoes, and how the technology would be integrated into current malaria control policies. The participants emphasised the importance and the challenge of educating and engaging communities during the technology development. Conclusions Understanding how communities perceive and interpret novel technologies is crucial to the design and effective implementation of new vector control programmes. This study offers vital clues on how communities with no prior experience of modified mosquitoes might conceptualize or respond to such technologies when deployed in the context of malaria control programmes. Drawing upon existing interpretive frames and locally-resonant analogies when deploying such technologies may provide a basis for more durable public support in the future.

The burden of cancer worldwide is predicted to almost double by 2030 to nearly 23 million cases annually. The great majority of this increase is expected to occur in less economically developed countries, where access to expensive medical, surgical and radiotherapeutic interventions is likely to be limited to a small proportion of the population. This emphasises the need for preventive measures, as outlined in the declaration from the United Nations 2011 High Level Meeting on Non-communicable Diseases. The rise in incidence is proposed to follow from increasing numbers of people reaching middle and older ages, together with increasing urbanisation of the population with a nutritional transition from traditional diets to a more globalised ‘Western’ pattern, with a decrease in physical activity. This is also expected to effect a change in the pattern of cancers from a predominantly smoking and infection dominated one, to a smoking and obesity dominated one. The World Cancer Research Fund estimates that about a quarter to a third of the commonest cancers are attributable to excess body weight, physical inactivity and poor diet, making this the most common cause of cancers after smoking. These cancers are potentially preventable, but knowledge of the causes of cancer has not led to effective policies to prevent the export of a ‘Western’ pattern of cancers in lower income countries such as many in Africa.

SUMMARYThe prevalence of cardiac morbidity due to Change' disease was assessed in a rural community in Central Bolivia. Sixty-nine of 104 persons (66%) were seropositive to Trypanosoma cruzi by two serological methods. Two of 35 (6%) seronegative individuals presented with modest ECG alterations (left anterior hemiblock), but 21 of 69 (30%) seropositives showed modest and severe abnormalities (6 complete right bundle branch block. 2 polyfocal or frequent extrasystoles, 9 ischaemic ST alterations). A high percentage (56%) of domiciliary Triatoma infestans was infected with T. cruzi. There was a significant association between seropositivity and substandard housing. Priority preventive measures should thus include house improvement (to reduce bug infestation) and health education.

Epidemiological Characterization

Control and preventive measures for gonococcal infections are based on precise epidemiological characteristics ofN. gonorrhoeaeisolates. In the present study the potential utility of opa-typing and ribotyping for molecular epidemiological study of consecutive gonococcal strains was determined. Sixty gonococcal isolates were subjected to ribotyping with two restriction enzymes,AvaII andHincII, and opa-typing withTaqI andHpaII for epidemiological characterization of gonococcal population. Ribotyping withAvaII yielded 6 ribotype patterns while twelve RFLP patterns were observed withHincII. Opa-typing of the 60 isolates revealed a total 54 opa-types, which 48 were unique and 6 formed clusters. Fifty-two opa-types were observed withTaqI-digested PCR product while opa-typing withHpaII demonstrated 54 opa-types. The opa-types from isolates that were epidemiologically unrelated were distinct, whereas those from the sexual contacts were identical. The results showed that opa-typing is highly useful for characterizing gonococcal strains from sexual contacts and has more discriminatory than ribotyping that could differentiate between gonococci of the same ribotype. The technique even with a single restriction enzyme has a high level of discrimination (99.9%) between epidemiologically unrelated isolates. In conclusion, the molecular methods such as opa-typing and ribotyping can be used for epidemiological characterization of gonococcal strains.
