Anemia is still considered as a serious health problem worldwide that requires large attention. Anemia does not only have an impact on health but also affect student achievement. This study aims to identify the prevalence of anemia among female university students in Surabaya and its relationship to academic achievement. This is an observational analytic study with cross-sectional design, involving 92 respondents who were selected using a consecutive sampling method. Data collected by using a questionnaire to obtain respondent characteristics, grade point average (GPA), and menstrual patterns. The measurement of hemoglobin levels carried out using the cyanmethemoglobin method. The results showed that the prevalence of anemia among female students was still quite high and there was a significant relationship between the incidence of anemia and students’ academic achievement measured by grade point average. Female students are one of the groups that are susceptible to anemia, so it is essential to make various efforts to improve Hb levels by increasing the intake of foods high in iron.

Children’S Development

Abstract Background Reducing child health inequalities is a global health priority and evidence suggests that optimal development of knowledge, skills and attributes in early childhood could reduce health risks across the life course. Despite a strong policy rhetoric on giving children the ‘best start in life’, socioeconomic inequalities in children’s development when they start school persist. So too do inequalities in child and adolescent health. These in turn influence health inequalities in adulthood. Understanding how developmental processes affect health in the context of socioeconomic factors as children age could inform a holistic policy approach to health and development from childhood through to adolescence. However, the relationship between child development and early adolescent health consequences is poorly understood. Therefore the aim of this review is to summarise evidence on the associations between child development at primary school starting age (3–7 years) and subsequent health in adolescence (8–15 years) and the factors that mediate or moderate this relationship. Method A participatory systematic review method will be used. The search strategy will include; searches of electronic databases (MEDLINE, PsycINFO, ASSIA and ERIC) from November 1990 onwards, grey literature, reference searches and discussions with stakeholders. Articles will be screened using inclusion and exclusion criteria at title and abstract level, and at full article level. Observational, intervention and review studies reporting a measure of child development at the age of starting school and health outcomes in early adolescence, from a member country of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, will be included. The primary outcome will be health and wellbeing outcomes (such as weight, mental health, socio-emotional behaviour, dietary habits). Secondary outcomes will include educational outcomes. Studies will be assessed for quality using appropriate tools. A conceptual model, produced with stakeholders at the outset of the study, will act as a framework for extracting and analysing evidence. The model will be refined through analysis of the included literature. Narrative synthesis will be used to generate findings and produce a diagram of the relationship between child development and adolescent health. Discussion The review will elucidate how children’s development at the age of starting school is related to subsequent health outcomes in contexts of socioeconomic inequality. This will inform ways to intervene to improve health and reduce health inequality in adolescents. The findings will generate knowledge of cross-sector relevance for health and education and promote inter-sectoral coherence in addressing health inequalities throughout childhood. Protocol Registration This systematic review protocol has been registered with PROSPERO CRD42020210011.

Abstract: Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis). In Indonesia, there are about 430.000 new cases, of which 61.000 cases ended in death. This disease has many clinical varieties, therefore, a gold standard for the right and exact diagnosis is needed. The examination of sputum by using Ziehl-Neelsen staining must be more improved for public health service. This study aimed to determine the profile of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (acid-fast bacteria) among patients with coughing ≥2 weeks at Ranotana, Wenang and Sario Primary Health Cares (PHCs) by using Ziehl-Neelsen staining. This was a descriptive study with a cross sectional design. Samples were obtained by using total sampling method during the period of September 2015 - December 2015. The results showed that there were 38 cases of coughing ≥2 weeks as follows: 15 cases at Wenang PHC, 13 cases at Ranotana PHC, and 10 cases at Sario PHC. The examination of acid-fast bacteria from the 38 cases of three PHCs showed that 1 case (2.7%) had acid-fast bacteria (++). Conclusion: In this study, there was only one case (2,7%) with positive Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Abstract: Gingival recession is the displacement of marginal gingiva to the apical direction of the cementoenamel junction due to the loss of alveolar bone attachment tissue resulting in exposure of the root surface of the tooth. Wrong technique of tooth brushing is one of the causes of gingival recession. This study was aimed to determine the correlation between tooth brushing techniques and gingival recession among the coastal coast community at the Megamas area of Manado. This was an analytical study with a cross sectional design. Sampleswere obtained by using total sampling method. Tooth brushing techniques were observed by looking at the way the respondents brushed their teeth. We provided check lists in accordance with the techniques they used. Data of gingival recession were obtained by examination of the oral cavity and then we calculated the severity of gingival recession. There were 43 respondents involved in this study. The result of the Kolmogorov-Smirnov obtained a p-value of 0.000. In conclusion, Yjere was a relationship between tooth brushing technique and the severity of gingival recession.Keywords: gingival recession, tooth brushing technique Abstrak: Resesi gingiva adalah perubahan posisi tepi gingiva ke arah apikal dari cemento enamel junction karena hilangnya jaringan perlekatan tulang alveolar sehingga mengakibatkan terbukanya permukaan akar gigi.
