Abstract Background Cervical cancer is the third most common cancer affecting women around the world in which the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is the one of the recognized causative agent affecting women health. In response to this health issue, the Malaysian government had officially implemented the HPV immunisation programme for secondary schoolchildren in 2010 at the age of 13 years old and above. The purpose of this study is to investigate the sociodemographic determinants of knowledge and attitude among students of Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman (UTAR) towards the HPV vaccination programme. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted using self-administered questionnaires, recruiting 374 UTAR’s students as the respondents by using convenience sampling method. Respondents were categorized as having good/poor level of knowledge and positive/negative attitude towards HPV vaccination. Results Over half of the respondents were females (64.5%) and the majority were aged 20 years old and below (55.8%). Generally, 54.7% of the total respondents had a high level of knowledge towards HPV vaccine while 57.5% of the total respondents showed a negative attitude towards HPV vaccine. Female respondents aged 20 years old and below showed good knowledge (56.4%) and a more positive attitude (55.8%) towards HPV vaccine. Students from the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences (FMHS) exhibited higher knowledge (67.3%) and positive attitude (62.4%) as compared to the Faculty of Accountancy and Management (FAM) which showed only 32.7% of knowledge and 37.6% of positive attitude towards the HPV vaccination. Conclusion The majority of UTAR students possess good knowledge regarding HPV vaccination. Nonetheless, they demonstrated a negative attitude towards HPV vaccination, depicting the necessity to impart and further intensify the sense of health awareness among all students, especially among male students. The judicious use of social media apart from the conventional mass media should be an advantage as to enhance the practice of HPV vaccination among them and thereafter minimize the health and economic burdens of cervical cancer.

Dpt Vaccine

Kendala utama keberhasilan vaksinasi bayi dan anak dalam sistem kesehatan adalah pengetahuan yang rendah dan kurangnya kebutuhan vaksinasi masyarakat. Sikap ibu terhadap vaksinasi akan menimbulkan perilaku yang mendukung terhadap kegiatan vaksinasi. Ini merupakan faktor dominan keberhasilan vaksinasi, jika sikap positif diharapkan pelaksanaan vaksinasi meningkat. Sikap ibu meningkatkan kepercayaan ibu terhadap kesehatan dan mempengaruhi status vaksinasi bayi dan balita. TUJUAN: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara sikap ibu yang memiliki bayi terhadap pemberian vaksin DPT. Metode penelitian yang digunakan penelitian korelasional dengan desain penelitian cross sectional. Sampel yang digunakan sebanyak 73 orang ibu yang memiliki anak balita dengan teknik total sampling. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebanyak 11 orang (15,1%) memiliki sikap negatif, 2 responden memiliki sikap negatif (2,7%) tetapi telah mendapatkan vaksin dan sebanyak 62 orang (84,9%) memiliki sikap positif terhadap vaksinasi. Analisis bivariat dengan nilai P & lt; a (0,001 < 0,05). Jadi Ha diterima dan Ho ditolak. Kesimpulan: Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah ada hubungan antara sikap ibu yang memiliki bayi dengan penerapan vaksin DPT.The main obstacle to the success of infant and child vaccination in the health system is the low level of knowledge and the lack of community vaccination needs. Mother's attitude towards vaccination will lead to supportive behavior towards vaccination activities. This is a dominant factor in the success of vaccination, if a positive attitude is expected to increase vaccination implementation. Mother's attitude increases maternal confidence in health and affects the vaccination status of infants and toddlers. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to determine the relationship between the attitudes of mothers who have babies to the DPT vaccine. The research method used was correlational research with a cross sectional research design. The sample used as many as 73 mothers who have children under five with total sampling technique.

The Relationship

Asthma has become one of the health problems in the world. Asthma is characterized by chronic inflammation of the respiratory tract which leads to breathlessness, wheezing, and airflow limitation. Inflammatory reaction in asthma is related to inadequate vitamin D level. Vitamin D is a vitamin produced naturally by the body when exposed to sunlight that has immunomodulatory properties can reduce inflammation. Knowledge and positive attitude to sun exposure are necessary to prevent severe asthma attacks. This was a cross-sectional study involving 26 subjects in a private university in east Surabaya during January–June 2017 that was aimed to determine the relation between vitamin D and knowledge and attitude towards sunlight exposure. Data were collected by measuring the vitamin D level in blood serum and through the use of a questionnaire that consisted of two aspects, level of knowledge and attitude to sun exposure. Chi-square test was used to analyze the relationship between vitamin D level, knowledge, and attitude. No relationship was found between blood vitamin D level of asthma respondents and level of knowledge of sun exposure related to vitamin D (p=0.444, p>0.05). The same was also true for the relationship between blood vitamin D level of asthma respondents and attitude to sun exposure related to vitamin D (p=0.768, p>0.05). The closeness of the relationship between knolwedge and attitude was also relatively low (0.093). In conclusion, there is no correlation between vitamin D level, knowledge, and attitude. In addition, there is also no correlation between knowledge and attitude with low relationship between the two variables. HUBUNGAN KADAR VITAMIN D DENGAN PENGETAHUAN DAN SIKAP TENTANG PAPARAN SINAR MATAHARI PADA PASIEN ASMA RAWAT JALAN DI SURABAYAAsma telah menjadi masalah kesehatan di dunia. Asma ditandai oleh peradangan kronis pada saluran pernapasan yang menyebabkan sesak napas, mengi, dan keterbatasan aliran udara.
