Abstract

Advanced age or elderly refers to individuals who have reached the age of 60 and above. According to data from the National Socioeconomic Survey in March 2020, there is a total of 10.48%, consisting of 51.81% elderly women and 48.19% elderly men. The elderly population undergoes the aging process, making them at a higher risk of degenerative diseases. According to Basic Health Research in 2013, the most common diseases among the elderly are hypertension (57.6%), arthritis (51.9%), stroke (46.1%), dental and oral problems (19.1%), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (8.6%), and diabetes mellitus (4.8%). Hypertension can lead to other disorders, such as cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular diseases have a high mortality rate and can be caused by various factors, such as diabetes mellitus and obesity resulting from an unhealthy lifestyle. Therefore, through education on cardiovascular diseases and the formation of elderly cadres and health corners, efforts to prevent cardiovascular diseases in the elderly are expected to be optimally implemented. The main target of this program is the congregation of the Indonesian Christian Church (GKI) in Sepanjang Sidoarjo, Taman District, Sidoarjo Regency. Activities include pre-tests and post-tests related to cardiovascular diseases in the elderly, health seminars, and the establishment of health corners. The results of this activity show that the respondents' knowledge level, assessed through questionnaires, had an average pre-test score of 12.52 and a post-test score of 14.71, indicating a significant change with a p-value < 0.001 meeting the significant level of 95%.

Abstract

E-cigarettes are gaining increasing popularity worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that there are nearly one billion (984 million) smokers globally, accounting for approximately one-fifth of the adult population. The use of e-cigarettes in Southeast Asian countries has also seen a rise since 2015, although at a slower pace compared to high-income countries. Presently, Indonesia has the highest prevalence of e-cigarette use in Southeast Asia at 11.8%, while Thailand has the lowest prevalence at 3.3%. Testes play a crucial role in male reproductive function. Decreased testicular size can lead to disruptions in testicular function, resulting in infertility. Testicular size is significantly correlated with sperm density in both fertile and infertile men. The objective of this study is to investigate changes in testicular weight due to exposure to conventional cigarettes, nicotine-containing, and nicotine-free e-cigarettes. This experimental research utilizes a post-test control only design. The sample comprises 24 male Wistar rats divided into four groups: Group A (control), Group B (exposed to conventional cigarettes), Group C (exposed to nicotine e-cigarettes), and Group D (exposed to non-nicotine e-cigarettes). Exposure to cigarettes lasts for 30 days, after which the rats undergo surgery to remove their testes. The research findings indicate a decrease in testicular size due to exposure to conventional cigarettes, nicotine e-cigarettes, and non-nicotine e-cigarettes. There is no significant difference observed among the three types of exposure. In conclusion, conventional cigarettes, nicotine-containing, and nicotine-free e-cigarettes elicit similar effects in reducing testicular weight in male Wistar rats.

Abstract

Insulin resistance plays a crucial role in maternal metabolic adaptation during pregnancy. Underweight pregnant women have metabolic conditions potentially affecting insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis. The Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) quantitatively measures fasting glucose and insulin levels, providing insights into metabolic health during pregnancy. This study aims to determine the differences in HOMA-IR between underweight and normal-weight pregnant women. The research employs a case design with a quantitative approach, using non-probability sampling techniques including quota and purposive sampling. The total sample comprises 24 participants, divided into 12 underweight pregnant women and 12 normal-weight pregnant women. Statistical analysis shows significant differences between groups: glucose levels (p <0.001), insulin levels (p = 0.018), and HOMA-IR values (p <0.001), all indicating significant findings (p <0.05). The study found differences in glucose and insulin levels between the two groups. Insulin and glucose levels tended to be higher in underweight pregnant women, indicating insulin resistance involvement with higher HOMA-IR levels compared to normal-weight pregnant women. This study can serve as a basis for understanding the patho-mechanism in underweight pregnant women.

Abstract

The use of contraception not only contributes to the reduction of maternal and child mortality rates but also serves as a strategic effort to control population growth. Long-term contraceptive methods (LCMs) are recognized as more effective and efficient when compared to non-LCMs. Nevertheless, data from the 2020 Indonesian Health Profile indicate that the majority of contraceptive acceptors continue to favor non-LCMs. Peniwen Village, characterized by a high population density of 462 individuals per square kilometer, represents a pertinent setting for examining contraceptive behavior. This study aimed to analyze the contraceptive behavior of women of reproductive age in Peniwen Village, along with their sociodemographic characteristics, and to determine the association between contraceptive method and variables such as age, education level, occupation, parity, knowledge of family planning, and family life cycle. This research employed an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach. The study involved 37 women of reproductive age who were family planning acceptors selected through total sampling. Data were collected using structured questionnaires encompassing demographic information, family planning knowledge, family stage, and contraceptive use. Descriptive statistics were applied to summarize the data, while the Chi-square test was used to assess associations between independent variables and contraceptive method. The findings revealed that 48.65% of respondents utilized LCMs, while 51.35% used non-LCMs. Bivariate analysis showed no statistically significant association between contraceptive method and age (p=0.249), education (p=0.695), occupation (p=0.392), parity (p=0.340), family planning knowledge (p=0.122), or family stage (p=0.500). These results underscore the necessity of adopting a more holistic approach that incorporates socio-cultural and religious dimensions to enhance family planning education among women of reproductive age in Peniwen village.

Abstract

Background: One of the most common degenerative joint diseases is knee osteoarthritis. This condition leads to pain and reduces functionality of the knee joints, which can negatively impact a patient’s quality of life. Total knee replacement (TKR) has become the standard procedure to treat end-stage osteoarthritis. Evaluating the success of TKR procedures is very important. One instrument that can be used for this purpose is the Oxford Knee Score (OKS). Methods: This observational analytic comparative study involved 40 patients. The data were collected by interviewing patients who had undergone TKR at Dr. Mohamad Soewandhie General Hospital between 2019 and 2024. The data were analyzed using Wilcoxon signed-ranks test, independent samples t-test, and Kruskal-Wallis test.  Results: The majority of the sample in this study was aged over 60 years (62.5%), female (87.5%), and had an overweight BMI (47.5%). The analysis showed a significant increase in the OKS after surgery, with a p-value of <0.05. The independent samples t-test showed a significant difference in the improvement of the OKS between males and females. Meanwhile, the Kruskal-Wallis test showed no significant difference in OKS improvement across BMI categories. Conclusions: There is a significant difference in the OKS before and after TKR surgery, which indicates an improvement in knee functionality and quality of life after surgery. Differences in patient gender may affect the outcome of the surgery, including post-surgery recovery rate and knee functionality. Meanwhile, BMI showed no significant difference in the outcome of TKR surgery.
