Abstract

Children and adolescents are age groups that are vulnerable to mental health problems in disaster-affected areas due to the loss of a sense of security and the destruction of living environments, play areas, and educational facilities. The floods and landslides that occurred in Aceh on November 24, 2025 caused psychological impacts in the form of trauma, particularly among children and adolescents in Matang Cut Village, North Aceh Regency. This condition encouraged the implementation of a community service program aimed at supporting the recovery of the mental well-being of children and adolescents in the post-disaster period. The activities were carried out using a persuasive approach by grouping participants based on their educational levels, namely kindergarten, elementary school, and junior high school. Each group was guided by a community service team consisting of lecturers in psychiatric nursing, health promotion, and English. The method applied was learning through play using educational game tools, such as flashcards and puzzles for adolescents, as well as coloring activities for younger children. The results showed very positive responses, indicated by the participants’ enthusiasm, motivation, and cheerfulness from the beginning to the end of the activities. All 34 participants attended the activities in full without leaving before completion. As a form of appreciation, active participants were given door prizes in the form of wafers, bread, and milk. This finding emphasizes that educational and recreational activities are highly necessary as part of efforts to address post-disaster trauma, particularly among children and adolescent age groups

Abstract

The postpartum period is a critical phase for maternal health, as women undergo physical, psychological, and social recovery while being vulnerable to complications, particularly postpartum infections. Postpartum infections remain a significant contributor to maternal morbidity and mortality, especially in low- and middle-income countries, and are often associated with inadequate hygiene practices, delayed detection, and limited self-care knowledge. This study aimed to analyze the effect of postpartum self-care education on the prevention of postpartum infections among postpartum mothers in the working area of the Mongeudong Public Health Center, Lhokseumawe City. This study employed a quantitative quasi-experimental design with a pretest–posttest control group approach. A total of 60 postpartum mothers were selected using purposive sampling and divided into an intervention group (n = 30) and a control group (n = 30). Data were collected using structured questionnaires to assess knowledge and attitudes, observation sheets to measure compliance with self-care practices, and clinical observations to identify postpartum infections. Statistical analyses included univariate analysis, Wilcoxon and Mann–Whitney tests, and logistic regression. The results showed a significant improvement in maternal knowledge, attitudes, and compliance with postpartum self-care practices after the educational intervention (p < 0.05). The incidence of postpartum infection was significantly lower in the intervention group (8%) compared to the control group (32%). Postpartum self-care education was found to be a significant factor in reducing the risk of postpartum infections. In conclusion, structured postpartum self-care education is effective in improving maternal knowledge, attitudes, and compliance, and in preventing postpartum infections. This intervention is recommended to be implemented as a routine program in primary healthcare services to enhance maternal health outcomes and reduce postpartum morbidity.

Abstract

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is widely used as an inflammatory biomarker and has also become a therapeutic target in several inflammatory and malignant diseases. Moringa oleifera (MO) has been reported to possess anti-inflammatory activity, yet evidence regarding its effect on blood IL-6 levels remains limited. This scoping review analyzed available evidence on the effect of MO on blood IL-6 levels. The review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). A PubMed search was conducted using the keywords ((Moringa oleifera) AND (Interleukin-6 OR IL-6)) AND (blood), covering publications from January 2006 to January 2026. Nine studies met the inclusion criteria. All studies used animal experimental models, measured IL-6 in serum using ELISA, and applied randomized placebo-controlled designs. Most studies reported a significant reduction in blood IL-6 levels after MO intervention. The preparations included aqueous extracts, ethanol extracts, polyphenol extracts, n-butanol fractions, seed powder, and beta-sitosterol isolated from n-butanol seed extract. Overall, MO may have prophylactic potential for chronic inflammatory conditions characterized by elevated blood IL-6 levels; however, standardized preparations and human studies are still needed.
