Abstract

Stunting is one of the nutritional problems that is a priority and must be addressed. Specific nutrition interventions in the ACS and PMT programs both have an effect on reducing stunting. Objective: To find out the differences in the effect of specific nutrition interventions in the ACS and PMT programs on reducing stunting. This research is a comparative research, cross-sectional research design. Sample: This study consisted of 60 stunted toddlers, consisting of 30 stunted toddlers in Jabung Village ad 30 stunted toddlers in Ngiliran Village. Analysis of differential effects: Independent Sample t-test. Results showed that specific nutrition interventions in the ACS program showed that 15% of toddlers passed stunting and 35% of toddlers did not pass stunting, while during the PMT implementation, 10% of toddlers passed stunting and 40% of toddlers did not pass stunting. The Independent Sample t-test concluded that there were differences in the effect of specific nutrition interventions on the ACS and PMT programs on stunting reduction. Concluded tha there were differences in the effect of specific nutrition interventions in the ACS and PMT programs had an effect on reducing stunting. So it is suggested that the handling of stunting in the ACS program can be disseminated and replicated on other places to reduce the incidence of stunting.

Abstract

Individuals are required to be able to adapt to the many changes that occur during adolescence, so support from the family is needed to deal with these changes. Normal development in this period of turmoil with rapid physical, cognitive and emotional transformations is influenced by parental interest and emotional involvement as well as parenting styles that determine the overall climate and communication in the family. Parents apply different parenting styles, ranging from authoritarian, democratic and permissive parenting. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between parenting patterns in adolescents and self-harm behavior in adolescents. This study was an analytic study with a case control design. The sample was 42 students of SMPN 1 Plaosan and their parents using a total population technique for the case group and a simple random sampling technique for control group. The independent variable was parenting style, the dependent variable was self harm behavior in adolescents. The instrument in this study used a questionnaire. To analyze the correlation used chi square test was used with α 0.05. The research results showed that most parents provided an authoritarian parenting style in the case group and some parents provided a democratic parenting style in the control group. The chi square test results obtained p = 0.00 (p = <0.05). The conclusion in this study is that there is a correlation between parenting patterns and self-harm behavior in adolescents. It is recommended that parents provide democratic parenting patterns for their children.

Abstract

Labor pain during the active phase of childbirth remains a significant clinical and psychological challenge for mothers and is often associated with increased anxiety, prolonged labor, and negative birth experiences. In many maternity settings, pain management is still limited to basic relaxation techniques, while evidence-based non-pharmacological alternatives such as aromatherapy are not routinely implemented. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of neroli (Citrus aurantium) aromatherapy in reducing labor pain intensity during the active phase of the first stage of labor. A quasiexperimental study with a pretest–posttest control group design was conducted at RSUD dr. Sayidiman Magetan. A total of 60 laboring mothers in the active phase (cervical dilatation 4–6 cm) were recruited using consecutive sampling and equally allocated into an intervention group (neroli aromatherapy) and a control group (breathing relaxation). The intervention consisted of inhalation of neroli essential oil via an ultrasonic diffuser for 45 minutes under standardized environmental conditions. Labor pain intensity was measured before and after the intervention using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test and the Mann–Whitney U test. The results demonstrated a significant reduction in pain intensity in the intervention group, with a mean VAS score decreasing from 6.77 to 5.43 (mean difference = 1.33; p < 0.001). In contrast, the control group experienced a slight increase in pain intensity, with mean scores rising from 6.57 to 6.97 (mean difference = +0.40; p = 0.005). Post-intervention comparisons between groups showed a statistically significant difference (p < 0.001), indicating superior pain reduction in the aromatherapy group. In conclusion, neroli aromatherapy is an effective, safe, and non-pharmacological intervention for reducing labor pain during the active phase of childbirth. Its integration into routine midwifery care may enhance maternal comfort and support a more positive labor experience.
