East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) is still endemic for DHF, as in Kupang city. This study aim was to analyze the relationship between Aedes sp praimago density and the DHF incidence in Kupang City. This observational analytic study with a case control design was conducted in 25 urban villages in Kupang City using Cluster sampling. The independent variables were the density of praimago such as House Positivity (HP), Number of Larvae in House (LH), Number of Pupa in House (PH), and Total Eggs (TE), and the dependent variable was the DHF incidence. Data were obtained by entomological surveys to see the density of eggs, larvae and pupae of Aedes sp per house, and then analyzed by independent t test, and Pearson correlation. House positivity (HP) was found to be significantly associated with the DHF incidence (p 0.001; OR 3.519). Larvae in House (LH) and total eggs were also correlated with the DHF incidence, but pupae in house (PH) was not correlated. The conclusion drawn is that the density of Aedes sp mosquito larvae such as HP, LH and TE in a house can be used to estimate the risk of dengue incidence from family members living in the house.

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) has become a public health problem in Indonesia, especially affecting children aged < 15 years.

Occupational risks often occurred may come from occupational factor or worker’s behavior itself, ones of which are work shift and work period. Thisstudy aimed to determine relations of work shift, work period and occupational health and safety (OHS) culture with lung function of coal mining worker. This study was control case design with each amount of sample for case and control was 178 respondents. The study was conducted on October – November 2014 at PT X in South Borneo. Results based on chisquare test showed p value = 0.044 for work shift, 0.028 for work period and 0.013 for OHS culture. Based on logistic regression test results, p value for work shift was 0.01 with OR = 3.934. As conclusion, there is a relation between work shift with lung function, then there is no relation found between work period and OHS culture with lung function. Work shift is an independent variable most dominantly influencing the lung function.

Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever (DHF) prevention and control program has been conducted in Kupang City but DHF Incidence Rate (IR) is always high and exceeds the national average. Calculating the density of larvae and pupae is a good choice in calculating DHF mosquitos’ density because larvae capture is easier than mosquitoes, and pupa is the nearest stage with adult mosquitoes so can better represent actual mosquito density. This observational study used cross sectional study design was conducted in Kupang City as many 24 urban villages or 480 houses during the rainy and dry season and all containers inside and outside homes selected been observed. Larvae and pupae were collected using gamadotik then identified. Analyzed data were using multiple regression logistic test, independent t test and Anova test. This study found 781 containers with the equation model of container positivity = 2,975 lid - 0.192 material + 0.781 type - 3,706, with the most influential variable is the container lid (OR 19.5). Ae. Aegypti, Ae. Albopictus and Culex can be found in water containers both inside and outside homes. The presence of larvae can be prevented either by doing closed and drain the container regularly and bury or drying container that is not used anymore. As limitation of water supply so other solutions need to be taken such as by sprinkling temefos into container with closed tightly to reduce the container positivity 19.5 times. For greater container can be done by water draining or reuse used container outside the home into a place to plant flowers or plants or become temporary garbage.

Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa kondisi SAB dan PHBS merupakan faktor risiko frambusia.Frambusia cases recorded at Bondo Kodi Primary Health Care in Sumba Barat Daya District, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) were continously increasing from 174 in 2009 to 327 in 2010 and 369 in 2011. In 2012, the highest frambusia occurred in Mali Iha Village with 43 cases. The present research was to define environmental, behavioural, and knowledge factors associated with the frambusia in children. This observational study employed case-control design with condition of clean water source, practices of personal hygiene and health behavior, and community knowledge about frambusia as independent variables. Samples were 30 children with frambusia (cases) and 30 healthy children (control) who were selected using purposive sampling. Data and information on environmental condition, behavioral practices, and community knowledge were collected by interview and direct observation and were analyzed using chi-square test. It was found that statistically the frambusia cases were associated significantly with the condition of clean water source (OR = 15.16, p value = 0.035) and personal hygiene and healthy behavior (OR = 7, p value = 0.048), but were not associated with community knowledge (p value = 0.283). It concludes that condition of clean water sources and personal hygiene and healthy behavior are risk factors of frambusia in children.

Dengue is an endemic disease in almost all provinces in Indonesia, including NTT pro-vince and Kupang City. DHF prevention and control efforts need to be accompanied by understanding of the epidemiological and entomological aspects. This study proves the presence of transovarial transmission and serotypes of Dengue virus in Ae. aegypti in areas with different endemics in Kupang City. The study was conducted in endemic, sporadic and Dengue-free villages. Samples from each location were 30 head squash Ae. aegypti females for examination of Dengue virus by IHC methods and 10 Ae. aegypti females for serotypes check of Dengue virus with RTPCR. Data presented in tables and images then analyzed descriptively. This study finds that transovarial infection rates 9.2% with serotype Dengue virus-1. As many 97.5% of respondents have heard about Dengue by most cadres resources (24.5%) and health workers (24%). Transovarial infection is found in endemic, sporadic and free areas so that the Dengue vector control needs to be done in the three regions with different endemicity.

Food is needed for our body as energy source. Food also as source of food borne diseases if it is untreatment well. Here, food handler is important to keep the food higyene.
