Abstract

Insomnia is a condition characterized by difficulty initiating sleep despite having adequate time and opportunity. Globally, the majority of insomnia sufferers are women, with approximately 10% of the world’s population estimated to experience severe insomnia. The management of insomnia typically begins with the principles of Consultation, Information, and Education (CIE). In cases of severe insomnia, further intervention often involves pharmacological therapy through medication. The primary class of drugs prescribed for insomnia patients generally belongs to the benzodiazepine group, which acts as a central nervous system depressant, muscle relaxant, and sedative. However, pharmacological treatment should always be complemented with non-pharmacological therapy. Notably, non-pharmacological interventions serve as the first-line treatment for patients with mild to moderate insomnia. This review article aims to evaluate the effectiveness of various non-pharmacological therapies for managing insomnia, which is recognized as the most prevalent sleep disorder worldwide. The literature review was conducted by searching databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect using the keywords “Insomnia,” “Therapy,” and “Non-Pharmacological.” Based on the search results, seven relevant articles were selected for review. The findings from these studies indicate that effective non-pharmacological interventions for insomnia management include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), hypnotherapy, audiovisual stimulation, aerobic and endurance exercises, acupuncture, and Pre-Sleep Dim Light Therapy (LT).

Abstract

Water apple (Syzygium aqueum) is a plant widely utilized by publics for both consumption and medicinal purposes. Traditionally, it is used as an alternative treatment for diarrhea, headaches, and cough. The method to maximize the potential of water apple leaves is by extracting the active compounds in it. These extracts have potential as antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, anti-cholesterol, antidiabetics, and antidiarrheal agents. Previous studies have shown that water apple leaves contain various active compounds such as alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, saponins, and phenolics. This research aimed to analyze the active compounds and determine the density of the water apple leaf extract. The study was conducted as a laboratory-based experimental research at the Botany Laboratory, FMIPA University of Lampung. The method employed was maceration of water apple leaves using 96% ethanol as a solvent, followed by qualitative phytochemical tests and density determination. Qualitative tests conducted included assessments for flavonoids, terpenoids, tannins, saponins, phenolics, alkaloids, and steroids. The density of the extract was determined by measuring the mass of the extract using an analytical balance and dividing it by its volume. The results showed that maceration using 96% ethanol yielded 110.62 grams of extract with a yield percentage of 11.062%. Phytochemical tests revealed the ethanol extract contained flavonoids, phenolics, tannins, saponins, alkaloids, and steroids. The density of the ethanol extract was calculated to be 0.9209 g/mL.

Abstract

Stroke is a condition characterized by the rapid development of clinical signs of focal and global neurological deficits, which can worsen and persist for 24 hours or more, potentially leading to death, with no clear cause other than vascular. Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) is a temporary neurological dysfunction caused by a blockade or reduction in blood perfusion to brain tissue, lasting from a few seconds to minutes, and in some cases, up to 24 hours. Diagnosing TIA is challenging because patients typically present after the TIA has resolved, making it crucial to diagnose TIA clinically before confirming the diagnosis with additional examinations such as CT-Scan or MRI. There are meta-analysis studies that describe the role of certain biomarkers in supporting the diagnosis of TIA. Due to the closely related pathomechanisms between TIA and ischemic stroke, almost all the same biomarkers can be used to diagnose both conditions. There are scoring systems used to identify the risk of stroke in patients with TIA, with the ABCD² score being the most commonly used. Rapid assessment and the implementation of adequate therapy reduce the risk of TIA progressing to ischemic stroke.

Abstract

Small ball game sports are a category of sports that involve small-sized balls and bats. Examples of these sports include badminton, rounders, baseball, softball, tennis, and others. Indonesia has not yet achieved notable achievements in small ball game sports. To improve performance and achieve better results, athletes must maintain optimal performance levels. It is crucial to identify and optimize all factors affecting the performance of small ball game athletes to help them reach their full potential. Optimal physical condition is the most essential factor for athletes. Physical fitness can be improved through the right combination of frequency, intensity, duration, and types of exercise. Another factor that affects athletic performance is nutrition, including macronutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, as well as micronutrients like vitamins and minerals. Athletes have different nutritional needs compared to non-athletes. Furthermore, nutritional requirements vary across different sports disciplines and are highly individualized. Psychological factors also significantly affect an athlete's performance. An athlete's psychological state greatly influences their concentration during competitions and plays a crucial role in their ability to perform at their best. Key psychological aspects to consider include discipline, motivation, self-confidence, and personality. To achieve optimal performance, athletes require physical training, nutritional monitoring, and psychological support.

Abstract

Appendicitis is inflammation of the vermiform appendix that can lead to perforation if not treated promptly. This study aims to identify the characteristics of appendicitis patients at RSUD Dr. H. Abdul Moeloek Lampung Province from January 2023 to July 2024. The method used was a descriptive observational study using secondary data from medical records of appendicitis patients. The sample was taken using total sampling, which was then selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, involving 84 patients with complete medical records and histopathology results. The results showed that the majority of appendicitis patients were in the 21-60 age range (49%), followed by the 0-20 age range (44%) and the >60 age group (7%). Based on gender, more male patients (56%) were found compared to females (44%). The most common type of appendicitis was simple acute appendicitis (48.8%), followed by perforated acute appendicitis (36.9%) and chronic appendicitis (14.3%). These findings are consistent with other studies showing a higher incidence of appendicitis in young adults and a higher prevalence in males. This study provides important insights into the characteristics of appendicitis patients, which may aid in early detection and more effective management.

Abstract

A student is an individual who studies at a higher education institution. A medical student is a student who requires dedication and undergoes significant pressure to complete their studies. Medical students are highly vulnerable to academic stress. Stress is a threatening state experienced by an individual, while a stressor is the source of stress. Academic stress occurs when students face academic pressure, such as intensive learning activities. Stressors that can contribute to academic stress include exams, practical sessions, assignments, and time constraints that must be managed within a short period. Academic stress impacts mental health, which in turn affects students' academic performance. Stress induced by psychological pressure causes changes in the body, resulting in two types of responses: slow and fast responses. These responses are linked to two physiological systems: the sympathetic adrenomedullary system and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal  HPA   axis. Several factors influence academic stress in medical students, including self-efficacy, hardiness, optimism, achievement motivation, procrastination, and social support. High self-efficacy helps students manage stress, while hardiness strengthens their resilience in facing pressure. Optimism and achievement motivation contribute to students' ability to recover from failure and stay focused on their goals. Conversely, procrastination worsens stress due to delays in completing tasks. Social support from family, friends, and institutions plays a crucial role in reducing stress by providing a sense of security and emotional balance for students.
