The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of hypertension and pre-hypertension and to analyze the related factors in adolescents in peri-urban areas.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Methods: </em></strong><em>The study used a cross-sectional design conducted on 40 junior high school students in Mebung District, Alor Regency. Data were collected using structured questionnaires, direct interviews, and measurements of blood pressure, height, and weight. Blood pressure was measured three times with five-minute intervals using pediatric standards based on age, gender, and height. Data on sodium intake, physical activity, family history of hypertension, sleep quality, and stress levels were obtained through validated questionnaires. Data analysis used the chi-square test to assess the relationship between variables.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Results: </em></strong><em>The prevalence of pre-hypertension was 30% and hypertension was 20%. Three factors showed a significant relationship with hypertension, namely a history of hypertension in the father (p value = 0.038), high sodium intake (p value= 0.002), and sleep duration of less than 8 hours (p value = 0.001). Other factors such as a history of hypertension in the mother, physical activity, sleep disorders, and stress did not show a significant relationship.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Conclusion: </em></strong><em>Hypertension in adolescents in peri-urban areas is related to genetic factors and lifestyle behavior. Prevention efforts need to be focused on low-sodium nutritional education, adequate sleep management, and routine blood pressure screening in schools.</em></p> 2025-05-19T12:28:27+07:00 ##submission.copyrightStatement## https://jikm.upnvj.ac.id/index.php/home/article/view/762 Relationship between Exposure to Solid Waste and Dengue Incidence in Communities Surrounding Bakung Landfill Bandar Lampung 2025-06-06T08:03:01+07:00 Dwi Rosmawati dwirosmawati@radenintan.ac.id Ridho Hanan Asrowi jikm@upnvj.ac.id Abdul Qohar jikm@upnvj.ac.id Fitri Windari jikm@upnvj.ac.id <p><strong><em>Abstract</em></strong></p> <p><strong><em>Background:</em></strong><em> Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a significant public health issue in Indonesia, including Bandar Lampung City. Environmental factors, such as poorly managed landfills, are suspected to contribute to the increase in dengue cases by creating conditions supporting the breeding of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, particularly through stagnant water formed among unmanaged waste piles. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between exposure to solid waste (household waste, non-hazardous industrial waste, and construction waste) around the Bakung landfill and the incidence of dengue fever in the surrounding community. <br></em><strong><em>Method:</em></strong><em> Cross-sectional design was conducted in February 2024 in 200 households within a 500-meter radius of the Bakung landfill, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires, interviews, and environmental condition observations. Statistical analysis used chi-square tests and logistic regression to determine relationships and main risk factors. <br></em><strong><em>Result:</em></strong><em> research results show that there was a significant relationship between solid waste exposure and the incidence of dengue fever (p=0.019), with communities exposed to solid waste (household waste, non-hazardous industrial waste, and construction waste) having a 3 times greater risk of contracting dengue fever compared to those not exposed (OR=3.01; p=0.013). In addition, the habit of maintaining environmental cleanliness was also significantly associated with the incidence of dengue fever (p=0.027). The community with good cleanliness habits has a lower risk of contracting dengue fever (OR = 0.43; p = 0.029). <br></em><strong><em>Conclusion:</em></strong><em> This study emphasizes that poor waste management and low environmental hygiene increase DHF cases. Therefore, efforts to improve waste management in Bakung landfill, community education related to sanitation, and government intervention in disease vector control are needed to reduce the incidence of DHF in the area.</em></p> 2025-05-25T00:00:00+07:00 ##submission.copyrightStatement## https://jikm.upnvj.ac.id/index.php/home/article/view/731 Enhancing Knowledge, Attitudes, and Motivation in Stunting Prevention by Community-Based Education 2025-06-06T08:23:50+07:00 Lina Handayani lina.handayani@ikm.uad.ac.id Heni Trisnowati heni.trisnowati@pascakesmas.uad.ac.id Tria Nisa Novianti 2308053037@webmail.uad.ac.id Isah Fitriani isah1900029224@webmail.uad.ac.id Tania Vergawita 2200029308@webmail.uad.ac.id Aufatcha Ayutya Suryana aufatcha2100029101@webmail.uad.ac.id Ardiansyah Jumaedi Nasir 2208053035@webmail.uad.ac.id Melly Eka Saputri 2208053039@webmail.uad.ac.id <p><strong><em>Abstract</em></strong></p> <p><strong><em>Background:</em></strong><em> Stunting is a global public health problem that can impair children's physical and cognitive development. In Indonesia, although the prevalence of stunting has decreased, it is still relatively high. Adolescents, especially adolescent girls, play an essential role in stunting prevention, as their knowledge, attitudes, and motivation can influence the health of future generations. Community-based education, such as Karang Taruna youth groups at the village or kelurahan level, using audiovisual media, is considered adequate for increasing adolescents' understanding and awareness of stunting. <br></em><strong><em>Method:</em></strong> <em>This study used a quasi-experimental method with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample was 33 adolescents in Sumberan Hamlet, Sleman, Yogyakarta. The intervention was stunting prevention education using audiovisual media delivered in one one-hour session in October 2024. Data were collected through questionnaires to measure knowledge, attitudes, and motivation which were standardized and analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank test</em><em>. <br></em><strong><em>Result:</em></strong><em> This study showed a significant increase in adolescents' knowledge with a mean difference between pre-test and post-test of 9.26 (p=0.001) and in attitude with a mean difference of 2.33 (p=0.003) after the intervention. However, adolescents' motivation did not increase significantly, with a mean difference between pre-test and post-test of only 0.70 (p=0.274). <br></em><strong><em>Conclusion:</em></strong><em> Community-based education using audiovisual media effectively improves adolescents' knowledge and attitudes about stunting.</em></p> 2025-05-25T14:22:25+07:00 ##submission.copyrightStatement## https://jikm.upnvj.ac.id/index.php/home/article/view/759 Risk Factors for Prediabetes among Women of Childbearing Age in DKI Jakarta (Analysis of SISKOHATKES Data 2023) 2025-06-06T08:38:30+07:00 Nur Sholihah katashol.0108@gmail.com Chandrayani Simanjorang chandrayanis@upnvj.ac.id Balqis Triaya Dewanti 2010713138@mahasiswa.upnvj.ac.id Firda Muthia 2110713079@mahasiswa.upnvj.ac.id Arkanaya Alya Azis 2110713068@mahasiswa.upnvj.ac.id Risdiana Priyastiwi 2110713086@mahasiswa.upnvj.ac.id <p><strong><em>A</em></strong><strong>bstract</strong></p> <p><strong>Background: </strong>Prediabetes in women of childbearing age (15—49 years) is a serious health issue that can affect fertility, pregnancy, and long-term health.
