Published: February 2025

Introduction: Increasing interest in human well-being has drawn attention to the need for healthy and sustainable environments, culminating in the emerging field of environmental health. Consequently, approaches aimed at enhancing ecological quality have emerged as one of the key strategies to promote better quality of life.Methods: Interventions were extracted and analyzed from a literature review on environmental health and quality of life. Several databases were searched for articles published from 2010 to 2020.Results: The findings sug­gest that environ­men­tal health inter­ven­tions are asso­ci­at­ed to mark­ed improve­ments in the qual­ity of life of dif­fer­ent pop­u­la­tions. These interventions include improvements in air and water quality, waste management, green space development, and other policies that support sustainable and healthy living environments.Conclusions: This highlights the importance of environmental health efforts in addressing the unique challenges faced by the populations in the study and their communities at large. Nevertheless, more investigation is required to track the long-term implications of these discernments inducing sustainability in social, economic and environmental aspects. Moreover, the role of public health professionals within interdisciplinary teams is emerging as vital to understanding and facilitating this process further in order to ensure the effective implementation and sustainability of these interventions through collaboration with policymakers and communities.

Introduction: Environmental toxins and community health 1 2 Researchers and policymakers have increasingly focused on the intersection of environmental toxins and community health. These increasingly pervasive substances may exist in many forms and sources, canvassing the capacity to undermine the wellness of people and populations. In this study, the researchers sought to investigate the relationship between environmental toxins and community health.Methods: A literature review was performed to obtain evidence on the effects of environmental toxins on community health. After incorporating studies from the last ten years, data were synthesized and analyzed.Results: The review confirmed a significant association between environmental toxins and adverse health outcomes in communities. Respiratory illness, neurological disorders and cancers were the most frequently reported health effects. Sources of these toxins included air and water pollution, hazardous waste sites and chemicals in household products.Conclusions: This research demonstrates the critical role of environmental toxins on the community's health and the need for further investigation. Toxin release should be regulated and prevented through policies and regulations. It is to be considered that the role of ATSDR may be limited at most. Still, I wouldn't go a step further on providing a thrust to environmental toxins that can be controlled by community involvement by conducting education programs and clean-up interventions. We must prevent the damage of these substances to care for society.

Published: February 2025

Introduction: Quality of life use has gained attention from healthcare professionals due to its broad intersections of factors from personal relationships to social support to psychological well-being and physical health. Discussion: Integrated care models may help improve the overall quality of life by focusing on coordinated, generalized, systematic and comprehensive healthcare. The objective of this study was to examine how integrated care models can enhance the quality of life of individuals within healthcare systems.Methods: A systematic literature review was performed to assess the effectiveness of integrated care models on healthcare quality of life. Data from relevant publications between 2010 and 2020 were included, and quality assessments were made using standardized tools.Results: The evidence shows that integrated care models have a positive impact on the quality of care. Such models incentivize cooperation between healthcare suppliers, generating a more complete and patient-centered solution. In addition, they promote family and social support network involvement and enhance individuals’ personal relations and psychological well-being. Incorporating digital technology into integrated care models can improve access to care and enable self-management of health, both of which positively impact overall quality of life as well.Conclusions: Integrated care models support individuals with diseases in health facilities to improve their quality of life. It also reinforces the importance of a more integrated and holistic healthcare system—which focuses on quality of life, not just stroke and disabling conditions. Long-term goals need to be assessed in terms of quality of life by implementing integrated care models into practice.

Authors: Tasalim Rian
Published: February 2025

Background & Objective: Hypertension is a global health issue, increasing morbidity and mortality due to cardiovascular complications. Gender differences affect blood pressure regulation, with men generally having higher blood pressure before menopause, while postmenopausal women face a greater risk due to hormonal changes. However, research on gender and hypertension severity remains inconclusive in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the relationship between gender and hypertension severity at Puskesmas Cempaka Putih, Banjarmasin.
Method: This cross-sectional study used a quantitative approach. A total of 68 hypertensive patients were selected through purposive sampling. Blood pressure was measured using a sphygmomanometer, while secondary data were obtained from medical records. The Chi-Square test was used to assess the relationship between gender and hypertension severity.
Result: Among respondents, 38.2% were men and 61.8% were women. Of the men, 65.4% had Grade 1 hypertension, while 34.6% had Grade 2 hypertension. Among women, 50% had Grade 1 hypertension, and 50% had Grade 2 hypertension. The Chi-Square test yielded p = 0.214, indicating no significant association between gender and hypertension severity.
Conclusion: Although gender differences in hypertension severity were observed, no significant correlation was found. Other factors, such as lifestyle and adherence to antihypertensive treatment, may play a more significant role. Future research with a larger sample and additional variables is recommended to further investigate gender differences in hypertension severity.

Published: February 2025

Moringa oleifera leaf extract mediated silver nanoparticles (MOR-AgNPs) were synthesized from a water-soluble leaf using a green technique. The plant's secondary metabolites served as capping and reducing agent. The spectroscopic characterization of the material was carried out by means of Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Ultraviolet-Visible Spectroscopy (Uv-vis), X-ray Diffraction Spectroscopy (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Transition Electron Microscope (TEM), Energy Dispersion Spectroscopy (EDS), and Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS). The UV–Vis spectrum showed absorption peak between 400 – 500 nm, while TEM revealed spherical images of sizes in the nano region. The MOR-AgNPs adsorbent uptake of the metal ions was optimized by varying concentration, shaking time, adsorbent mass, pH, and temperature conditions. The isotherm models studies revealed that the type-1 Langmuir fitted well to the adsorption showing monolayer/homogeneous adsorption. The second order kinetics fitted well to the adsorption study, while positive values of ΔH° and ΔS° indicated endothermic and increased randomness at the MOR-AgNPs-aqueous interface. The ΔG° showed that the sorption of the metal ions onto the adsorbent was spontaneous, making the adsorption process feasible. The Ea values for the metal ion adsorption onto the adsorbent used in this study suggest a physical adsorption process. The adsorption capacity of 294.15 mg/g (40 °C, and pH of 6) of Cd(II), 123.63 mg/g (40 °C, and pH 10) of Pb(II), and 122.93 mg/g (40 °C, and pH 6) of Cr (III) ions on  MOR-AgNPs adsorbent were obtained.

Effects of Deferred Puppy Intake on Incidence of Canine Parvovirus Infection and Survival: A Community Case Study
Authors: Hadden Hayley , Herron Meghan
Published: February 2025

Canine parvovirus (CPV) threatens many canine populations, particularly those in underfunded, rural shelters, as well as the supporting organizations that transfer/transport puppies from these shelters. This study investigates the impact of a deferred puppy intake protocol on CPV incidence and outcomes among puppies transferred from a rural shelter to a supporting organization in central Ohio (Gigi’s). Rather than housing surrendered puppies within their building, the rural shelter requested that community members defer the surrender of unwanted or stray puppies. Community members then maintained possession until the next scheduled Gigi’s transport, allowing puppies to be directly placed into a clean crate and loaded onto the transport vehicle. After implementation of this protocol, CPV incidence decreased from 47% (18/38) to 9% (9/103) (P < .001). Survival rates increased but this change was not statistically significant (13/18; 72% vs. 8/9; 89%, P = .17). In general, puppies developing CPV after transport were more likely to survive than those diagnosed prior to transport (3/9; 33% vs. 18/18; 100%, P < .001). More stray puppies (20/64; 31%) than owner surrendered puppies (7/77; 9%) were diagnosed with clinical CPV (P < .001). These findings support the effectiveness of deferred intake strategies on mitigating CPV transmission and early illness identification on CPV survival.

Ο σκοπός αυτής της µελέτης είναι να εξετάσει τα πιθανά ψυχολογικά οφέλη που µπορεί να αποφέρει η ενεργή συµµετοχή σε οµαδικό τραγούδι σε άτοµα µε διατροφικές διαταραχές σε ένα µη-κλινικό πλαίσιο. Η δηµιουργία ενός εργαστηρίου οµαδικού τραγουδιού για γυναίκες οι οποίες παρουσίαζαν διατροφικές διαταραχές πρόσφερε την ευκαιρία για εξερεύνηση των βιωµάτων τους όπως αυτά έγιναν αντιληπτά από τις ίδιες. Μία ποιοτική προσέγγιση αξιοποιώντας µία ηµι-δοµηµένη συνέντευξη χρησιµοποιήθηκε µε σκοπό να εξερευνήσει τις αντιλήψεις των γυναικών αναφορικά µε το εργαστήριο οµαδικού τραγουδιού. Μία θεµατική ανάλυση των δεδοµένων αναγνώρισε τέσσερις βασικές κατηγορίες σχετικά µε τα οφέλη του οµαδικού τραγουδιού για την συγκεκριµένη πληθυσµιακή οµάδα. Το θεωρητικό µοντέλο του Sears (1968) για τις διαδικασίες στη µουσικοθεραπεία και η εφαρµογή αυτού σε ανορεξικούς πελάτες (Parente 1989) διαπνέουν τη συζήτηση των εµπειρικών ευρηµάτων.
Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) Management in Tropical Marine Food Production Areas Amidst Climate Change

Fundamental to coastal communities is the utilization of the marine environment for food and livelihood. In tropical areas, food production depends on the harvest and/or culture of organisms on the coasts, which now have multiple uses and receive anthropogenic inputs from both the land and sea. Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) have been recorded in many of these production sites, with observed health, socio-economic, and some environmental effects for various known or yet-to-be-understood reasons. A critical review of the management schemes/approaches of HAB events in tropical food production areas is presented, focusing on the Philippines, where HABs and their impacts have been recorded for over thirty (30) years. The affected areas are sometimes declared “disaster areas” so authorities can heighten mitigation and relief efforts. Some HAB management schemes and methods are briefly described to serve as models for reviewing and enhancing the current HAB management scheme. Although the impacts of climate change on HABs have not been substantially well-studied, it is prudent to have future-ready management of food production that considers this phenomenon as a significant factor, particularly in areas with long coastlines.
