Background: Hypertension, a prevalent chronic condition, poses significant health risks when left untreated. Psychological factors like stress and anxiety are known contributors to high blood pressure. Effective management of hypertension may benefit from non-pharmacological interventions that address these psychological elements. Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the impact of Zikr meditation, a spiritual mindfulness practice, on reducing anxiety, stress, and blood pressure in individuals with hypertension. Methods: A double-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted with 60 hypertensive patients, randomized into intervention and control groups. The intervention group participated in 20-minute Zikr meditation sessions for four weeks daily, while the control group engaged in a placebo activity. Anxiety and stress levels were measured using the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), respectively. Blood pressure readings were taken before and after the intervention. Results: Participants in the Zikr meditation group showed a significant reduction in anxiety and stress levels compared to the control group. Additionally, there was a notable decrease in systolic and diastolic blood pressure among those practicing Zikr meditation. Conclusions: Zikr meditation effectively reduces anxiety and stress, leading to lower blood pressure in hypertensive patients. These findings suggest that incorporating Zikr meditation into standard hypertension management could offer a valuable, non-pharmacological approach to improving cardiovascular health. Further research is recommended to examine Zikr meditation's long-term effects and broader applicability in hypertension care.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine disorder prevalent in women of reproductive age. This comprehensive review aims to shed light on the various factors that contribute to the onset and progression of PCOS. The analysis includes a thorough exploration of genetic predisposition, environmental influences, and lifestyle factors in the context of their role in the hormonal dysregulation, insulin resistance and ovarian dysfunction associated with PCOS. The complex relationship between these factors and the clinical manifestations of PCOS, including irregular menstrual cycles, hyperandrogenism, and polycystic ovarian morphology, is also discussed. By synthesizing current research findings, this review provides a comprehensive understanding of the various factors that influence the occurrence of PCOS, offering valuable insights for reference in reproductive health education, early detection of PCOS, and development of comprehensive prevention and intervention combinations.

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycaemia, leading to complications such as cardiovascular disease and kidney failure. The increasing prevalence of T2DM necessitates effective management strategies, including complementary therapies like bay leaf (Syzygium polyanthum), which has demonstrated potential for glycaemic control. Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of bay leaf decoction in improving glycaemic control among T2DM patients in Malangan Village. Methods: A randomized controlled trial (RCT) involved 60 adults aged 30-65 years with fasting blood sugar (FBS) levels between 126-200 mg/dL, selected through purposive sampling. Participants were randomly assigned to an intervention group receiving a bay leaf decoction (10 grams in 250 mL water, twice daily for 12 weeks) or a control group receiving a placebo decoction. Primary outcomes included changes in FBS, while secondary outcomes assessed postprandial blood sugar (PBS) and HbA1c. Compliance and adverse events were monitored, and data were analysed using paired and independent t-tests (p < 0.05). Results: The intervention group showed significant reductions in FBS, PBS, and HbA1c levels compared to the control group (p < 0.05). Older age, female gender, and higher education correlated with improved glycaemic control, while obesity and hypertension were associated with poorer outcomes. No severe adverse events were reported. Conclusion: Bay leaf decoction significantly improves glycaemic control through mechanisms such as enhanced insulin sensitivity, α-glucosidase inhibition, and antioxidant properties. This natural, cost-effective approach is promising as a complementary therapy for T2DM. Future research should explore long-term effects, optimal dosage, and integration with lifestyle interventions to maximize benefits.

The incidence of stunting in toddlers is a major nutritional issue in Indonesia. Data from the Nutrition Status Monitoring (PSG) over the past three years shows that stunting has the highest prevalence compared to other nutritional problems such as underweight, wasting, and obesity. The prevalence of stunting in toddlers increased from 27.5% in 2016 to 29.6% in 2017. Various factors influence the occurrence of stunting; however, these factors can vary by region. Detailed data on the determinants of stunting in children is crucial for informing government policies in addressing public health issues, particularly stunting. This study focuses on Banjarnegara Regency, which ranks among the top five regions with the highest stunting rates in Central Java. The objective of this research is to analyze the factors influencing stunting among children aged 2-5 years in Banjarnegara Regency. This quantitative study uses a case-control approach, with a population of all children aged 2-5 years. Data analysis includes univariate descriptive analysis and bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test. The results indicate that education, economic status, environment, and birth length are associated with stunting in toddlers, whereas exclusive breastfeeding history is not associated with stunting.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a complex hormonal disorder involving dysregulation of luteinizing hormone (LH) and its receptor, leading to menstrual irregularities and anovulation. This study evaluates the potential of Clitoria ternatea, a traditional medicinal plant, in modulating LH receptor activity through in silico analysis. Methods: Active compounds from Clitoria ternatea, including flavonols (kaempferol, isorhamnetin), flavones (baicalein, luteolin, apigenin), phenolic acids (chlorogenic, protocatechuic, gallic), and epicathechin, were identified via PubChem. Lipinski’s rule and LD50 classifications were used to assess drug-like properties and toxicity. Bioactivity was predicted using PASS Online, SwissTarget Prediction, PharmMapper, and SuperPred. The LH receptor's 3D structure was modeled using Swiss Model and validated with Procheck and Errat Check. Molecular docking studies using PyRx assessed binding affinities between the compounds, spironolactone, flutamide, and the LH receptor. Results: Docking results revealed strong binding affinities of Clitoria ternatea compounds with the LH receptor, particularly phenolic acids and flavonoids, showing comparable or better interactions than spironolactone and flutamide. These interactions suggest a potential role in restoring hormonal balance and ovulatory function. The study highlights the therapeutic potential of Clitoria ternatea for PCOS management. Its compounds demonstrate significant LH receptor interactions, offering a promising basis for further research. Conclusion: Clitoria ternatea shows promise as a natural therapeutic candidate for PCOS. Future in vitro, in vivo, and clinical trials are needed to validate these findings
