Background: Indonesia is one of the countries most affected by a high prevalence of obesity and overweight among other lower-middle-income countries. Most studies, however, are not concerned with the geographical dependence of   the obesity and prevalence of overweight. The purpose of this study was to describe the prevalence of obesity and overweight stratified by age group among 34 provinces in Indonesia. Methods: This study used data from the Report on Basic Health Research 2018 of the Indonesian Ministry of Health. We calculated data to find the estimated prevalence of obesity and overweight in each age group across 34 provinces (n=427,675) by using the local empirical Bayesian estimation. The mapping was used to show the phenomenon of obesity and overweight in different age groups and areas. Results: In each group, the overweight prevalence was much higher than the obesity prevalence. Age group 18+ had the highest prevalence of obesity and overweight (obesity: 10.4–30.1%, overweight: 19.2–46.3%) followed by the age group of 5–12 years (obesity: 2.4–15.0%, overweight: 6.1–30.3%). The province with the highest prevalence of obesity among the age group of 5–12 years was Papua province and for the 18+ age group it was North Sulawesi province. The province with the largest number of obesity and overweight was West Java province for each group. Conclusion: Prevalence of obesity and overweight differed by age group and by 34 provinces.

Information for cancer patients is significant to overcome a cancer diagnosis and its treatment, affecting patients' quality of life. This study aimed to assess the level of satisfaction with the information on illness treatment among Indonesian cancer survivors, explore its association with the patients' demographic and health-related characteristics, and provide recommendations and improve the information. Sixty adult cancer survivors at the oncology unit of Panembahan Senopati Bantul Hospital of Yogyakarta, Indonesia, were recruited in a cross-sectional study design completing a demographic and health-related data form and the Satisfaction with Cancer Information Profile Questionnaire. The data were then analyzed using descriptive statistics and path analysis. Most patients were dissatisfied with the amount and content of cancer information provided by health care ranging from 12-67%, particularly on the information regarding managing unwanted-side effects of the treatment and the impact of their cancer treatment on long-term quality of life. The patients were also discontented with the detail of information, the timing,  and the usefulness of information to others. Demographic and health-related characteristics directly influence the patients' satisfaction of information (β= 0.461, p = 0.045). Patients who were divorced, not living with their spouses, and diagnosed with cancer for a longer time (more than two years) were the significant contributors to directly influencing their satisfaction. Nurses need to enhance the detail of information, find the best time to provide and design a better way to deliver cancer patients' information.
