Asian culture, with its hierarchical social system, less autonomy for members of society and less verbally explicit communication style contributes to this difference. This paper describes the development and validation of a guideline to help doctors in the context of the study to become more patient-centered. read more

ABSTRACT
Background: Tobacco advertising in Indonesia is among the most aggressive and innovative in the world, and tobacco advertisements saturate the environment. Tobacco companies are politically and financially powerful in the country because they are one of the largest sources of government revenue. As a result, there are few restrictions on tobacco marketing and advertising. National surveys reveal that 62% of men and 1% to 3% of women are smokers. Over 90% of smokers smoke clove cigarettes (kretek). This paper examines the social and cultural reasons for smoking in Indonesia and discusses how the tobacco industry reads, reproduces and works with culture as a means of selling cigarettes. An analysis is provided of how kretek tobacco companies represent themselves as supporters of Indonesian national identity. This analysis is used to identify strategies to break the chains of positive association that currently support
widespread smoking. read more

Background: Low birth weight (LBW) poses the biggest contribution toward neonatal mortality and has long- term health consequences for a child. A psychological condition with depressive disorders in pregnant women affects indirectly the risk of LBW. Previous studies show that there have been different arguments about the effect of depressive symptoms toward birth weight.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between pregnant women’s depressive symptoms and low birth weight.

Method: This was an observational study with an unmatched case control study design.

Data were analyzed with univariable analysis, bivariable analysis using chi-square test and multivariable analysis using logistic regression. read more
