[Some factors that affect the level of survival of children in rural West Java and rural East Java].

Factors affecting the survival rate of children in rural Java, Indonesia, are analyzed. Variables examined include mother's education, age at first marriage, household facilities, and duration of breast-feeding. The data are from the 1973 Indonesian Fertility and Mortality Survey. Mother's education and age at first marriage are shown to influence infant survival the most, whereas household facilities have no significant impact. "It is also concluded that mothers with length of breastfeeding interval between 24 and 35 months have [a] child survival rate greater than those with length of breastfeeding other than 24-35 months. Besides, [the] child survival rate is lower for mothers working in non agricultural activities relative to those working in agricultural activities or those who are not working." (summary in ENG)

[Endometrial curettage in abnormal vaginal bleedings in 1964 and 1983 at the Panti Rapih Hospital, Yogyakarta, and family planning].

This study was undertaken to compare the causes of abnormal vaginal bleedings in 1964 before the family planning program in Indonesia was introduced and in 1983 when this program was widely accepted. The samples were taken from the files of the Department of Pathology, Gadjah Mada University Medical Faculty, during the period of July 1-December 31 in the years 1964 and 1983. The results suggested that in 1964 these bleedings were mainly caused by conception (52.9%), while in 1983 only 19.7% were caused by conception. In 1964 most dysfunctional bleedings were found in the perimenopause groups and in 1983 in the child bearing groups. Extended studies utilizing larger samples could provide further information about the role of estrogen hormones for contraception and therapy or hormones for cosmetic purposes, and also about endogenic factors. It would be necessary to work together with other specialists as well as psychologists.
