Sampah menjadi masalah yang krusial di daerah pesisir karena kebiasaan masyarakat yang membuang sampah langsung ke laut. Kegiatan pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk mengelola sampah dengan memberdayakan aset yang dimiliki oleh masyarakat. Kegiatan ini dilakukan dalam 2 tahap, yaitu tahap persiapan dan pelaksanaan. Tahap persiapan dilakukan dengan menginventarisi aset yang dimiliki oleh masyarakat, melakukan sosialisasi, mempersiapkan materi dan bahan yang dibutuhkan untuk pelatihan pengolahan sampah. Aset yang teridentifikasi dimiliki oleh masyarakat terdiri dari aset fisik, aset manusia, aset sosial, aset finansial, dan aset alam, berupa lahan perkebunan dan pertanian yang menjadi sumber sampah organik sekaligus sebagai tempat mengaplikasikan pupuk kompos hasil pengolahan sampah organik tersebut. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan bahwa peserta yang hadir tidak mencapai target karena kegiatan melaut yang dilakukan warga. Peserta yang mengikuti kegiatan pengolahan sampah cukup antusias mengikuti materi dan simulasi. Diharapkan peserta yang mengikuti pelatihan dapat mengolah sampahnya sendiri dan memotivasi warga lain untuk mengolah sampahnya masing-masing.

Background and Objective: Pumpkin seeds are rich in nutritional and phytochemical content. However, pumpkin seeds are rarely consumed in Indonesia. Development of pumpkin seed-based foods, such as biscuits, may provide a nutritious supplemental food. This study aimed to identify the nutritional value of pumpkin seed-based biscuits. Materials and Methods: Five pumpkin seed biscuit formulas were developed from different wheat and pumpkin seed flour compositions as follows: Formula 1 (4:1), Formula 2 (3:2), Formula 3 (2:3), Formula 4 (1:4) and Formula 5 (0:1). The Luff-Schoorl, Kjeldahl, Soxhlet, X-ray fluorescence methods were used to analyze the nutritional content of Formula 1. Results: Formula 1 contained 48.16±0.007 g carbohydrates, 11.20±0.021 g protein, 33.05±0.049 g fat, 1.64±0.304 g crude fiber, 5.91±0.007 g water and 1.65±0.028 g ash. The highest mineral value was chlorine (46.23mg) and the lowest was molybdenum (0.5 mg). Conclusion: Pumpkin seed biscuits can be used as an alternative healthy snack for those who are undernourished.

The Assistance of the husband during the delivery of the wife makes the process smoother. The assistance was related to various factors, including husband support. This study aims to determine the relationship between husband support and wife delivery assistance at the Sheikh Yusuf General Hospital in Gowa Regency. The study was conducted from October-November 2019. This study used a cross-sectional approach the population is all husbands who came to bring their wives in the period of October-November amounted to 385 people. The research sample was obtained by simple random sampling totaling 134 people. Data analysis was performed using SPSS with a chi-square test where the significance value was p <0.05. The results showed that the respondents in this study were mostly aged 18-24 years as many as 39.6%, the last level of education was Senior High School as much as 51.5% and working as entrepreneurs 38.8%. A small proportion of respondents in this study aged 39-45 years were 4 (3.0%), D3 education level was 4 (3.0%), and worked as a repairman 3 (2.2%). The study also showed that there were 81.3% of husbands supported childbirth and 18.7% did not. In addition, there were 64.9% of husbands accompanied their wives at delivery, and 35.1% did not accompany them. There is a relationship between the husband's support and delivery assistance (p = 0.008). It is expected that the husband can play an active role in assisting his wife so that it helps the smooth delivery process

Pumpkin seeds are rarely used as food, despite their potential to become a functional food. Among other ways, pumpkin seeds can be processed into flour. This study aimed to assess the nutrient content, quality, and toxicity of pumpkin seed flour from Indonesia. This study followed an experimental design. Different methods were employed to measure the content, the Luff–Schoorl method for measuring carbohydrates, Kjeldahl method for protein, Soxhlet for fats, and the direct method for ash, crude fiber and moisture. The spectrophotometric method was used to measure vitamin content and mineral content was measured using X-Ray fluorescence. The subchronic toxicity test was conducted using five experimental animal groups, consisting of four intervention groups and one control group. The intervention groups received pumpkin seed flour of 10.8 mg/kg BW, 9 mg/kg BW, 5.4 mg/kg BW and 4.5 mg/kg BW. After 30 days, the experimental animals were dissected to check for liver and kidney damage. Pumpkin seed flour contains water (4.17%), ash (4.02%), proteins (35.30%), fats (36.30%), crude fibers (14.20%), carbohydrates (6.02%), vitamin C (0.10%), vitamin A (65.12 mg/kg), calcium (573.03 ppm), copper (3.10 ppm), iron (104.38 ppm), zinc (68.87 ppm), phosphorus (0.17%), magnesium (0.33%) and manganese (119.48 ppm). In the toxicity test, no death or organ damage occurred among the experimental animals. Therefore, pumpkin seed flour meets the requirements for development into functional food and supplements.

BACKGROUND: Social determinants have an important role in the survival of breast cancer patients. AIM: This article aims to reviews the social determinants that affect the survival of breast cancer patient. METHODS: We searched PubMed and Google Scholar for identifying studies related to this review using free-text terms and Medical Subject Headings terms. Both experimental and observational studies on social determinants of breast cancer patient survival which were published in the English language have been included in this review except expert opinions, commentaries, editorials, and review articles. Ten studies were eligible to be included in review. RESULTS: Social health determinants that play a role in the survival of breast cancer patients are education level, place of residence, socioeconomic status, social environment, racial discrimination, and access to health services. CONCLUSION: Social determinants have an influence on the survival of breast cancer patients, so it is important to pay attention to these factors.

Stunting adalah gangguan pertumbuhan linier yang berlangsung sejak kehamilan hingga anak berumur 24 bulan. Stunting terjadi karena kekurangan zat gizi yang berlangsung dalam waktu yang lama. Salah satu penyebab terjadinya stunting adalah kurangnya pengetahuan ibu tentang pola makan dan pola asuh yang baik pada anak. Sehingga ibu perlu dibekali tentang pencegahan stunting sejak dini. Pengabdian ini bertujuan meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan ibu hamil mengenai bahan pangan lokal pencegah stunting dan cara mengolahnya. Pengabdian ini berlangsung 2 kali dimana pertemuan pertama dilakukan edukasi melalui permainan pembelajaran dan pada pertemuan kedua dilakukan demo masak beberapa menu inovasi pangan lokal di empat desa lokus stunting yang menjadi lokasi pengabdian. Hasil analisis uji Wilcoxon yang digunakan didapatkan hasil dari empat lokasi pengabdian, tiga diantaranya (Desa Pakatto, Je’nemadinging dan Pacellekang) terjadi peningkatan pengetahuan ibu hamil sebelum dan sesudah pemberian edukasi inovasi pangan (p-value 0,05). Kegiatan ini menunjukkan bahwa edukasi dapat meningkatkan pengetahuan tentang pencegahan stunting pada ibu hamil
