Background: Over the past two decades, autism has emerged as a major public health concern in Indonesia. Although known for more than fifty years as one of the most severe childhood neuropsychiatric disorders, it was thought to be quite rare. Individuals with autism have impairments in social interaction and communication and exhibit some rote or repetitive, often self-stimulatory, behavior. In each of these dimensions, the impairment can range from mild to profound. This study aimed to determine the correlation between knowledge, attitude, and healthy behavior among children with autism in Yogyakarta. Subjects and Method: This was a mixed study conducted at SLB Autis Bina Anggita, Yogyakarta. A total of 13 key informants including children with autism, teachers, and parents. The dependent variable was healthy behavior. The independent variables were knowledge and attitude. The data were collected by indepth interview and questionnaire. Quantitative data were analyzed by Spearman correlation. Results: 11 of 13 children with autism had good knowledge about autism. All children had good attitude and health behavior. The correlations of knowledge, attitude, and health behavior were not statistically significant. Conclusion: The correlations of knowledge, attitude, and health behavior are statistically non-significant.

Background: Child outcomes, including speech ability, are interconnected within and across diverse domains of development. They result from and are enhanced by early positive and supportive interactions with parents and other caregivers. This study aimed to estimate the association between parents role and speech ability of children. Subjects and Method: Across-sectional study was carried out in Surabaya, East Java. A total of 46 children 1 to 2 years of age and their parents were selected for this study. The dependent variable was speech ability. The independent variable was role of parents. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by Pearson correlation. Results: Sample characteristics were as follows: role of parents is fairly good in 29 (63%) children, speech ability of children aged 1 to 2 years did not fit with their age in 28 (60.9%) children. Speech ability was associated with parents role (r= 0.44; p= 0.002). Conclusion: Parents have an important role in the development of normal speech ability in children. Keywords: parent role, speech ability.

Background: Adolescent sexual and reproductive health is a major public health concern. A number of authors and organizations report that many adolescents world over are sexually active, and in some regions, as many as half are married. Literature shows that there is a need for improved reproductive health services aimed at adolescents throughout the world. This study aimed to investigate the role of health reproduction information center in improving premarital sex behavior among adolescents in Bima, West Nusa Tenggara. Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in Bima, West Nusa Tenggara, from April to June 2018. A sample of 200 senior high school students was selected by proportional stratified random sampling. The dependent variable was premarital sex behavior. The independent variables were health information center (PIK-KRR), intention, perceived behaviour control (PBC), and media exposure. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multiple logistic regression run on Stata 13. Results: Health information center had a positive effect on healthy premarital sex behaviour, but it was statistically non-significant (b= 1.64; 95% CI= 0.78 to 3.44; p= 0.188). Healthy pre-marital sex behavior increased with stronger intention (b= 17.18; 95% CI= 7.98 to 36.97; p<0.001), PBC (b= 2.54; 95% CI= 1.19 to 4.24; p= 0.016), and positive social media information exposure (b= 2.01; 95% CI= 0.95 to 4.24; p= 0.068). Conclusion: The existing health information center in Bima, East Nusa Tenggara, is seemingly ineffective. It has a positive effect on healthy premarital sex behavior, but it is statistically non significant. Healthy premarital sex behavior increases with stronger intention, PBC, and positive social media information exposure. Keywords: healthy premarital sex behavior, health information center, social media information exposure

Background: Earlier life-course studies have shown that childhood obesity increases disease risk in adulthood, including metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and its associated cardiovascular, retinal and renal complications, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, obstructive sleep apnea, polycystic ovarian syndrome, infertility, asthma, orthopedic complications, psychiatric disease, and increased rates of cancer. This study aimed to examine the risk factors of child overweight or obesity in Surakarta, Central Java, using path analysis. Subjects and Method: This was a case control study carried out in Surakarta, Central Java, from March to April 2018. A sample of 225 primary school students was selected by simple random sampling. The dependent variable was overweight or obesity. The independent variables were maternal education, family income, physical activity, and maternal body mass index (BMI). The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by path analysis. Results: The risk of child overweight or obesity increased with high family income (b= 1.51; 95% CI= 0.80 to 2.22; p<0.001) and maternal BMI ≥25 (b= 1.19; 95% CI= 0.42 to 1.96; p= 0.002). The risk of overweight or obesity reduced with high physical activity (b= -1.90; 95% CI= -2.63 to -1.16; p<0.001). Maternal education had indirect association with child overweight or obesity, through maternal BMI and child physical activity. Conclusion: The risk of child overweight or obesity increases with high family income and maternal BMI ≥25. The risk of overweight or obesity reduces with high physical activity. Maternal education has indirect association with child over¬¬weight or obesity, through maternal BMI and child physical activity. Keywords: overweight, obesity, determinants, children, path analysis

Background: Infection prevention and control is one of key clinical priorities in a hospital to protect patients, visitors and staffs from the risk of healthcareassociated infections caused by bacteria (germs). Food safety in hospitals should be of the utmost importance because their populations are at a higher risk of developing a food-borne illness. This study aimed to analyze the hygiene and sanitation practice among health workers in the nutrition unit, at Muhammadiyah Gamping Hospital, Yogyakarta. Subjects and Method: This was a qualitative with case study. A sample of 13 food handlers, 1 food service unit supervisor, 1 sanitation unit supervisor, and 1 infection and prevention control unit supervisor, were selected for this study. The dependent variables were knowledge and compliance to food hygiene and sanitation standard procedure. Knowledge was measured by questionnaire. Foodhandler compliance to standard procedure was measured by observation and check-list. Perspective on hygiene and sanitation practice was measured by indepth interview. Results: Of food-handlers, 10 (77%) had good knowledge and 3 (23%) had poor knowledge on hygiene and sanitation. All food handlers were able to demonstrate good practical skills and compliance to food safety, hygiene, and sanitation practice. Conclusion: All food-handler show good compliance to standard operating procedure of food safety, hygiene, and sanitation practice.

Background: According to WHO, 4 million neonatal deaths occurred each year due to birth asphyxia. Birth asphyxia is an insult to the fetus or newborn due to failure to breath or breathing poorly, leads to decrease oxygen perfusion to various organs. This study aimed to examine the determinants of birth asphyxia at Pilgrimage hospital in Medan, North Sumatera. Subjects and Method: This was a case control study conducted at Pilgrimage Hospital, Medan, North Sumatera. A sample of 180 newborn infants was selected for this study. The dependent variable was birth asphyxia. The independent variables were maternal age, gestational age (prematurity), and infant birth weight. Data on asphyxia was obtained from the medical record. The other data were collected by questionnaire. The data were analyzed by a multiple logistic regression. Results: The risk of birth asphyxia increased with maternal age <20 years or ≥35 years (OR= 6.25; 95%CI= 1.33 to 29.03; p= 0.023), premature birth (OR= 7.90; 95%CI= 3.90 to 16.02; p= 0.007), and low birth weight (OR= 11.51; 95% CI= 4.89 to 19.82; p= 0.049). Conclusion:Birth asphyxia is associated with maternal age <20 years or ≥35 years, premature birth, and low birth weight. Keywords: birth asphyxia, maternal age, prematurity, low birth weight.

A sample of 180 newborn infants was selected for this study. The dependent variable was birth asphyxia. The independent variables were maternal age, gestational age (prematurity), and infant birth weight. Data on asphyxia was obtained from the medical record. The other data were collected by questionnaire. The data were analyzed by a multiple logistic regression. \u0000Results: The risk of birth asphyxia increased with maternal age <20 years or ≥35 years (OR= 6.25; 95%CI= 1.33 to 29.03; p= 0.023), premature birth (OR= 7.90; 95%CI= 3.90 to 16.02; p= 0.007), and low birth weight (OR= 11.51; 95% CI= 4.89 to 19.82; p= 0.049).\u0000Conclusion:Birth asphyxia is associated with maternal age <20 years or ≥35 years, premature birth, and low birth weight.\u0000\u0000Keywords: birth asphyxia, maternal age, prematurity, low birth weight.","PeriodicalId":297517,"journal":{"name":"Reaching the Unreached: Improving Population Health in the Rural and Remote Areas","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129176707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Background: Sleep quality is considered as one of the non-conventional risk factors for stroke. Cognitive disorder is prevalent among stroke survivors. There is limited data on the association between sleep quality and cognitive disorder among stroke patients from coastal eastern part of Indonesia. The objective of the study was to analyze the association between sleep quality and cognitive disorder among acute stroke patients from coastal areas in North Sulawesi. Subjects and Method: This was a hospital-based cross-sectional study carried out at Prof. dr. R. D. Kandou General Hospital of Manado, from May to June 2018. A sample of 39 acute stroke patients were selected for this study with some eligibility criteria. The dependent variable was cognitive disorder measured by Mini Mental Status Examination (MMSE). The independent variable was sleep quality measured by the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Stroke was diagnosed from history taking, physical examination, and neuroimaging study. The data were analyzed by chi square test and Odd Ratio as the measure of association. Results: Sample characteristics were as follows: Age (Mean= 59.10; SD= 10.43), male (51.3%), high school (48.7%), homemaker/housewife (25.6%), residence in Manado (61.5%), poor sleep quality a month prior to stroke (79.5%), cognitive disorder after stroke (53.8%). Stroke patients with poor sleep quality were 2.3 times more likely to experience cognitive disorder than counterparts with good quality of sleep (OR= 2.30; 95%CI= 0.46 to 11.42; p= 0.290). Conclusion: Majority of acute stroke patients from coastal areas in North Sulawesi experience poor sleep quality. There is an association between sleep quality and cognitive disorder among acute stroke patients, but it is not statistically significant.
背景:睡眠质量被认为是脑卒中的非传统危险因素之一。认知障碍在中风幸存者中很普遍。关于印度尼西亚东部沿海地区中风患者睡眠质量与认知障碍之间关系的数据有限。本研究的目的是分析北苏拉威西沿海地区急性中风患者的睡眠质量与认知障碍之间的关系。对象和方法:这是一项基于医院的横断面研究,于2018年5月至6月在万鸦老R. D. Kandou总医院进行。本研究选取了39例急性脑卒中患者,并制定了一定的入选标准。因变量为认知障碍,采用Mini Mental Status Examination (MMSE)测量。自变量为匹兹堡睡眠质量指数(PSQI)测量的睡眠质量。通过病史、体格检查和神经影像学检查诊断卒中。数据分析采用卡方检验,奇数比作为相关性的度量。结果:样本特征如下:年龄(Mean= 59.10;SD= 10.43),男性(51.3%),高中(48.7%),家庭主妇(25.6%),居住在万鸦老(61.5%),卒中前一个月睡眠质量差(79.5%),卒中后认知障碍(53.8%)。睡眠质量差的中风患者发生认知障碍的可能性是睡眠质量好的中风患者的2.3倍(OR= 2.30;95%CI= 0.46 ~ 11.42;p = 0.290)。结论:北苏拉威西沿海地区急性脑卒中患者睡眠质量较差。急性脑卒中患者睡眠质量与认知障碍之间存在相关性,但无统计学意义。
