Abstract

Hyperuricemia, with a global prevalence of approximately 14.0% in the general population and rising to 24.0% among the elderly, represents the second most prevalent metabolic disease after diabetes and constitutes a significant public health burden. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of turmeric tea in reducing blood uric acid levels in hyperuricemic elderly. A quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group approach was employed, involving 140 respondents equally divided into an intervention group (n = 70) receiving 1000 mg/day of turmeric tea and a control group (n = 70) receiving standard health education. Blood uric acid levels were measured using a portable uric acid meter. Data were analyzed using the Paired Sample t-test, the Independent Sample t-test, and multiple linear regression. The intervention group demonstrated a significant reduction in mean uric acid levels from 8.46 ± 1.32 mg/dL to 6.78 ± 1.18 mg/dL (mean difference = 1.68 mg/dL; p = 0.000), while the control group showed no significant change (8.39 ± 1.28 to 8.21 ± 1.25 mg/dL; p = 0.137). The effect size was large (Cohen's d = 1.23). Multiple regression confirmed turmeric tea as the strongest predictor of uric acid reduction (B = 1.472; p = 0.000). Turmeric tea effectively reduces blood uric acid levels in hyperuricemic elderly and holds potential for integration into community-based elderly health programs as an accessible and affordable complementary therapy for hyperuricemia management.

Abstract

Fishing families in Likupang II face occupational hazards, sanitation gaps, nutritional challenges, and disaster risks. This community engagement program aimed to strengthen family capacities through integrated empowerment. Activities included education, fish-processing practice, occupational safety training, basic life support and disaster simulations, community volunteer development, and sanitation facility construction. Complete paired assessments were available for 28 fish-processing participants, 33 occupational safety and sanitation participants, and 35 emergency preparedness participants. Mean scores increased from 53.57 to 85.36, 11.70 to 24.42, and 3.20 to 18.00, respectively. Outputs comprised 40 safety equipment sets, three sanitary latrines, and two waste collection facilities; 40 participants were involved in integrated volunteer activities. This family-based approach improved short-term learning outcomes and access to supporting facilities. Sustained practices and health outcomes require follow-up evaluation.
