Abstract

Introduction: Preeclampsia is a risk factor for maternal hypertension, including postpartum hypertension. However, postpartum hypertension is often missed, due to the suboptimal quality of postpartum care and the lack of follow-up in women with a history of preeclampsia. Objective: This systematic review aims to synthesize and evaluate existing interventions for preventing postpartum hypertension in women with a history of preeclampsia, using a narrative synthesis approach to assess their effectiveness and methodological quality. Methods: This systematic review used articles from Scopus, CINAHL, and PubMed. The search focus was postpartum care for hypertension prevention, particularly in women with a history of preeclampsia. Articles published between 2019 and 2024 were selected based on predefined eligibility criteria. We selected fully accessible articles that focused on postpartum care. The keywords used in the article search were “history of preeclampsia” OR “hypertensive disorder during pregnancy“ AND “postpartum” AND “hypertension.” The selected articles came from various countries in five continents (Asia, Africa, Europe, America, Australia, and Europe). The selection process adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews (PRISMA) guidelines. Results: There were 28 articles reviewed. Postpartum care involving education and regular follow-up increased knowledge and ability to control hypertension risk in women with a history of preeclampsia. There were six articles involving participants performing blood measurements independently and reporting them through an online application or in a text based format. Conclusion: This review confirms that women with a history of preeclampsia, especially severe preeclampsia, are at higher risk of postpartum hypertension. Tailored postpartum care is needed to mitigate the risk of postpartum hypertension and reduce rehospitalization. Continuous follow-up by health workers, either through face-to-face or telehealth monitoring, is  important to ensure that mothers receive information and support in managing hypertension risk.

Abstract

Stress conditions in children with chronic disease affect psychoneuroimmunological markers. One of the mind-body modalities commonly used in pediatric chronic disease is music therapy. This systematic aim was evaluating the effect of music therapy on psychoneuroimmunological markers among children with chronic disease. Articles published between March 31, 2014, and April 1, 2023, were retrieved from five databases: Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, EBSCOhost, and ProQuest. Rayyan, an AI-powered tool for systematic literature reviews, facilitated paper selection. Studies were screened based on pre-defined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The PRISMA checklist guided selection, and the JBI Critical Appraisal for quality assessment. Data analysis employed a descriptive approach. A total of 15 articles published between 2014 and 2023 were included in this review. 10 (66,7%) of 15 studies assessed the effectiveness of music therapy on psychological and physiological responses. Meanwhile, five (33,3%) studies assessed the effectiveness of music therapy on neuroimmunological markers. Among the five studies, one did not exhibit a statistically significant impact. In contrast, the remaining four studies displayed a significant impact of music therapy on neuroimmunological markers. The most studies assessed the impact of music therapy on psychological and physiological responses, but only a small proportion assessed the effectiveness of music therapy on neuroimmunological markers. Music therapy can be considered a safe and generally well-accepted intervention in pediatric health care to manage psychoneuroimmunological markers.

Abstract

Introduction: HIV/AIDS remains a global public health challenge, with opportunistic infections (OIs) being a major cause of morbidity and mortality. In resource-limited settings such as Aceh, Indonesia, the burden of OIs significantly impacts the management and outcomes of HIV/AIDS patients. Purpose: This study aims to describe the demographic and clinical characteristics, the prevalence of OIs, and treatment outcomes among HIV/AIDS patients treated at Cut Mutia General Hospital in Lhokseumawe, Aceh. Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted using medical records of 55 HIV/AIDS patients treated between January 2023 and October 2024. Data included demographic profiles, clinical features, types of OIs, and treatment outcomes. Descriptive statistical analysis was performed. Results: The majority of patients were male (67.3%) and aged 25–44 years (81.8%). Oral candidiasis (28.1%) and pulmonary tuberculosis (17.7%) were the most common OIs. Notably, some patients experienced multiple OIs. Most patients (76.4%) were discharged in stable condition, while 23.6% succumbed to their illnesses. Conclusions: This study highlights the high prevalence of OIs among HIV/AIDS patients in Lhokseumawe, emphasizing the need for early detection, improved clinical management, and integrated care services. Targeted interventions are critical to reducing mortality and improving patient outcomes in resource-constrained settings.

Purposive sampling was used to recruit participants who met the following criteria: (1) women diagnosed with breast cancer who had chosen to undergo chemotherapy and (2) women attending chemotherapy sessions at the treatment center. Patients with a history of severe chemotherapy side effects were excluded from the study. Data were collected through in-depth, semi-structured interviews with 25 participants, and transcripts were analyzed using thematic analysis.Results: Four key themes emerged from the data analysis, including (1) feeling the uncertainty of life, (2) emotional turbulence, (3) surviving under pressure, and (4) accepting the situation. Participants demonstrated positive adaptive coping strategies to manage the challenges of breast cancer and chemotherapy during the COVID-19 pandemic.Conclusion: Surviving and accepting conditions were identified as vital coping mechanisms that help women with breast cancer maintain their quality of life during the COVID-19 pandemic. These strategies play a crucial role in maintaining mental well-being amid uncertain and stressful circumstances.

Abstract

One of the aspects of childhood independence is managing emotional turmoil. Emotion regulation is an individual's style in determining what emotions they feel, when and how to describe them, and recognizing these emotions. This research estimates the correlation between emotional regulation and independence in early childhood. This research design used analytics with a cross-sectional approach. The population was 86 mothers with young children in the Ciptomulyo Malang Public Health Center (PHC) working area. There were 80 samples with a purposive sampling technique. The inclusion criteria were children living with their parents. The instrument for emotional regulation was the Emotional Regulation Questionnaire for Children and Adolescents (ERQ-CA), and for early childhood independence was the Child Independence Questionnaire. The results showed that parents had an authoritarian parenting style (85%). They had expressive suppression in emotion regulation (92.5%) and an independent category of early childhood independence (57.5%). The Spearman Rank test obtained p=0.002 (p<0.05) and the r=0.625. Thus, there was a significant correlation between emotion regulation and early childhood independence. In conclusion, emotion regulation affects early childhood independence. Further research could evaluate children's social and cultural context and individual characteristics, providing deeper insight into the factors influencing early childhood independence.

Abstract

The ethical challenges nurses face when patients refuse treatment—a legally protected right often complicated by normative, ethical, and social factors. It investigates how nurses reconcile respect for patient autonomy with their psycholegal responsibilities under Indonesian law. Using a normative juridical approach and thematic analysis of relevant documents, the research uniquely applies human rights theory to nursing decision-making in treatment refusal cases an underexplored perspective in Indonesian health law. Findings confirm that Article 276 of Law No. 17 of 2023, alongside international human rights frameworks and Islamic law, safeguards patients’ right to refuse treatment. When refusal is informed and voluntary, healthcare providers are legally protected. The research concludes that nurses must support patient autonomy through therapeutic communication, psycholegal awareness, and meticulous documentation.
