Abstract

Anxiety approaching labour is a common phenomenon experienced by many pregnant women, particularly those giving birth for the first time. A high level of anxiety can negatively affect the labour process, leading to less effective contractions and prolonged delivery time. The objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of lemon aromatherapy in reducing anxiety in pregnant women approaching childbirth at PMB Lismarini, Palembang. The study employed a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach and was conducted at PMB Lismarini, Palembang. The population consisted of all third-trimester pregnant women who were not allergic to essential oils. A total of 20 respondents were selected using a total sampling technique. Data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The results showed a p-value of 0.002, indicating that lemon aromatherapy significantly reduced anxiety levels in pregnant women. It can be concluded that lemon aromatherapy has an effect on reducing anxiety in pregnant women before childbirth. Further research with a larger sample size, more rigorous study design, and comparisons with other types of aromatherapy is recommended to confirm its effectiveness.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between household characteristics and access to sufficient water in Kyrgyzstan, utilizing secondary data from the 2023 Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS). Employing a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design, the analysis encompassed univariate, bivariate (Chi-square test), and multivariate (binary logistic regression) methods. The sample comprised 6,615 households, with findings indicating that most households are of productive age, possess secondnoary to higher education, reside in rural areas, and have access to sufficient water. Economic and regional distributions within the sample are relatively balanced, reflecting the broader population's diversity. Multivariate analysis revealed that access to sufficient water is significantly influenced by regional location, household welfare level, and ethnicity; regions such as Issyk-Kul, Bishkek, and Jalal-Abad exhibit higher access, while Talas and Chui show lower access. Demographic factors like gender, age, and place of residence did not significantly affect water access. These findings underscore the necessity for targeted policies that address disparities in water access, focusing on disadvantaged regions and low-income households to promote equitable access to sufficient water

Abstract

Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. TB treatment is an efficient way to prevent the spread of the bacteria. The goals of TB treatment include curing, maintaining the patient's quality of life and productivity, preventing death from active TB or its sequelae, preventing relapse, reducing transmission to others, and preventing drug resistance. Most TB patients complete treatment without significant side effects, but a minority experience significant side effects. The duration of drug consumption can affect other organs such as the kidneys. Proteinuria is a condition in which there is protein in the urine beyond normal limits. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of length of treatment to urine protein in TB patients in Meliau District. This research method is analytical observational with a cross-sectional approach and consecutive sampling technique, with a total sample of 47 respondents. The results showed 10 respondents (21.27%) experienced proteinuria, while 37 respondents (78.73%) did not. Chi-Square analysis showed a relationship between length of treatment and urine protein in TB patients in Meliau District, as evidenced by a p-value of 0.015 (<0.05). In conclusion, there is a relationship between length of treatment and urine protein in TB patients in Meliau District.
