However, cases have also been reported in six non-endemic provinces, indicating that the potential for transmission persists and cannot be ignored. Methods: This study aims to identify risk factors for filariasis in endemic and non-endemic provinces in Indonesia using data from the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey (SKI) with a cross-sectional design. Univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analyses were conducted using a complex samples approach. Result: No significant association was found between sex, age, education, and occupation and the incidence of filariasis in both regions.

In non-endemic provinces, no statistically significant risk factors were identified. Conclusion: These findings highlight a clear divergence in the dominant risk factors between endemic and non-endemic settings.
