Hadianor Hadianor — 2025-08-21

Turbidity is one of the important parameters in determining the quality of clean water. The river water used by the people of Desa Melayu Tengah as a source of daily needs has a turbidity level that exceeds the standard quality threshold. This study aims to determine the effect of varying doses of the natural coagulant from noni seed powder (Morinda citrifolia L.) on the reduction of river water turbidity. This study uses the true experimental method with a post-test only with control group design. Water samples were taken from the Martapura River, then treated with varying coagulant doses of 0 mg/L, 25 mg/L, 50 mg/L, and 75 mg/L, each with 6 repetitions. Data analysis was conducted using the one-way ANOVA test followed by the LSD (least significant difference) test. The research results showed a significant difference between the treatment groups (p < 0.001), with the optimum dose at 25 mg/L. However, the turbidity value after treatment has not yet reached the quality standard (< 3 NTU) based on Permenkes No. 2 of 2023. The use of this material still requires further development, including in terms of extraction methods, the correct dosage, and the possibility of combining it with other more reactive coagulant materials. For the time being, the public is still advised to use proven effective water purification methods, such as simple filtration, sedimentation with alum, or household filtration systems based on sand and activated charcoal.

Indonesia is currently focusing on improving nutrition at every stage of life, including adolescents who are vulnerable to nutritional status issues influenced by factors such as body image, gender, dietary patterns, and attitudes. In Banjar Regency, 30.11% of adolescents experience nutritional problems such as severely underweight, underweight, overweight, and obesity. This study aims to determine the relationship between these factors and the nutritional status of adolescents at Senior High School 2 Martapura. This research employed a cross-sectional design with a sample of 103 adolescents selected from a population of 814 using proportional random sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and measurements of body weight and height. The results showed that most adolescents had normal nutritional status (64.1%), positive body image (60.2%), inadequate dietary patterns (62.1%), and positive attitudes (50.5%). Based on Fisher’s Exact test (?<0.05), gender showed a significant relationship with nutritional status (p = 0.039), and based on the Spearman Rank correlation test (?<0.05), dietary patterns were also significantly related to nutritional status (p = 0.020). However, body image (p = 0.667) and attitudes (p = 0.137) were not significantly related to nutritional status. Health institutions and schools are expected to actively monitor and provide nutrition education, while adolescents are encouraged to adopt balanced dietary patterns. Future researchers are advised to examine other factors affecting nutritional status.

Ai Susi Susanti — 2025-09-02

The Universal Health Coverage (UHC) program is a strategic initiative by the Indonesian government to ensure that all citizens have access to quality healthcare services without financial barriers. This study aims to analyze the causes behind the inactive status of BPJS (Indonesia’s national health insurance) participants, evaluate the effectiveness of UHC implementation in addressing access challenges, and examine its impact on the quality of healthcare services. A descriptive qualitative method was employed through a case study at a hospital in Bandung that has implemented the UHC program. Informants included BPJS administrative officers, healthcare workers, and patients who transitioned from inactive BPJS status to UHC participants. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and document analysis. The results showed that out of 173 applications, 89.6% of previously inactive BPJS participants were successfully enrolled in the UHC program. This policy had a positive impact, improving healthcare accessibility, service efficiency, and patient satisfaction. However, administrative and data validation issues were the main obstacles. These findings indicate that UHC is effective in expanding healthcare coverage, but it requires robust data systems and active local government support for policy alignment and funding.
