ABSTRACT
The Talang Mamak tribe is an indigenous tribe that lives in groups (the extended family) in rural locations. All decisions are made after much deliberation. Traditional birth attendants are still used for childbirth. The objective of the study is to analyze the factors that influence reproductive health-needing behavior among Talang Mamak women of reproductive age. With 160 respondents, data was analyzed using logistic regression. The study discovered that education p = 0.001 with PR=4,738, knowledge p = 0.001 with PR=13,800, attitude p= 0.001 with PR=3,133, and tradition p= 0.001 with PR=226.66 are variables that influence the behavior of women of reproductive age toward needing reproductive health services. Among the five variables influencing the outcome, one stands out: tradition, which has an Exp(ß) value of 192.422. The multivariate results show that three variables are included in the modeling: tradition p = 0.001, knowledge p = 0.001, and education p = 0.001. Good traditions, good knowledge, and higher education in the Talang Mamak tribe have a more behavioral probability of needing reproductive health services in women of reproductive age 99%, while another 1% probability by other variables is not examined in this study.
La tribu Talang Mamak est une tribu indigène qui vit en groupes (la famille élargie) dans les zones rurales. Toutes les décisions sont prises après de longues délibérations. Les accoucheuses traditionnelles sont encore utilisées pour l'accouchement. L'objectif de l'étude est d'analyser les facteurs qui influencent le comportement en matière de santé reproductive chez les femmes Talang Mamak en âge de procréer. Avec 160 répondants, les données ont été analysées par régression logistique. L'étude a découvert que l'éducation p = 0,001 avec PR = 4 738, la connaissance p = 0,001 avec PR = 13 800, l'attitude p = 0,001 avec PR = 3 133 et la tradition p = 0,001 avec PR = 226,66 sont des variables qui influencent le comportement des femmes en situation de procréation. âge pour avoir besoin de services de santé reproductive. Parmi les cinq variables influençant le résultat, une se démarque : la tradition, qui a une valeur Exp(ß) de 192,422. Les résultats multivariés montrent que trois variables sont incluses dans la modélisation : tradition p = 0,001, connaissances p = 0,001 et éducation p = 0,001. Les bonnes traditions, les bonnes connaissances et l'enseignement supérieur dans la tribu Talang Mamak ont une probabilité comportementale plus élevée d'avoir besoin de services de santé reproductive chez les femmes en âge de procréer (99 %), tandis qu'une autre probabilité de 1 % selon d'autres variables n'est pas examinée dans cette étude.

BACKGROUND: Healthy family security means the strength and the ability of a family to meet health needs and to be free from health problems. The health problem itself is various and numerous, especially related to sanitation hygiene and health care. AIM: This research aims at analysing the relationship between sanitation hygiene and health care with healthy family security of the family of smokers. METHODS: It involved 120 families of smokers living at Berastagi Subdistrict, North Sumatera Province, Indonesia, as the sample of the research. Data collection was done by doing observation and interview with a structured questionnaire instrument. Weight and height of the family members of the smokers were recorded as the measurement of nutrition status as well as health status for the measurement of healthy family security. RESULTS: The research found that there was a significant relationship between sanitation hygiene and health care with healthy family security. CONCLUSION: The research concluded that sanitation hygiene and health care performed by the family of smokers could increase healthy family security.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Pulmonary Tuberculosis is still a global health threat and the cause of the average of 1.3 million deaths each year. AIM: The objective of the research was to analyse the influence of ventilation and nutritional status on the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis at Langsa, in 2018. METHODS: The population was all pulmonary tuberculosis adult patients at Langsa, in 2018, with AFB+ of 315 people, and the samples were 116 patients in the case group and 116 patients in the control group. The data were analysed by using logistic regression with simple logistic regression test and multiple logistic regression tests. RESULTS: The result of multiple logistic regression tests showed that there was the influence of nutritional status (p ≤ 0.001; OR = 2.645 (95% CI 1.494-4.683) and ventilation (p ≤ 0.044; OR = 1.816 (95% CI 1.015-3.250) on the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis. CONCLUSION: To break off the chain of pulmonary tuberculosis contagion, it is necessary to increase people's awareness of the importance of healthy life behaviour and healthful home by providing health counselling about the requirement for good nutritional status and ventilation.
