Abstract

In early pregnancy, nausea occurs because the hormones estrogen and HCG increase in the blood. Research Objective: To determine knowledge about the effect of boiled ginger water in reducing the frequency of nausea and vomiting in pregnant women in the 1st and 2nd trimester at the Sartika clinic in 2024. Research Method: This research is descriptive. The sampling technique was purposive sampling with a total of 15 respondents. Research Results: The research results show that knowledge in the good category is 8 people (53.3%), in the sufficient category is 5 people (33.3%), and in the low category is 2 people (13.3%). Conclusion: Based on the research results, it shows that TM 1 and 2 pregnant women have good knowledge about boiling ginger water to reduce the frequency of nausea and vomiting. It is hoped that health workers will continue to increase education about drinking ginger water so that the frequency of nausea and vomiting in pregnant women can be reduced.

Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major global health problem, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. The emergence of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis has increased interest in alternative antimicrobial agents from medicinal plants. Red betel leaf (Piper crocatum) and shallot (Allium cepa L.) contain bioactive compounds with potential antibacterial activity. This study aimed to evaluate the inhibitory effect of ethanol extracts of red betel leaf and shallot at different concentrations on the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vitro. Methods: A pre-experimental one-group study was conducted in the Microbiology Laboratory of Santa Elisabeth School of Health Sciences, Medan. Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from sputum samples were cultured and tested using the disk diffusion method. Ethanol extracts of red betel leaf and shallot were prepared and tested at concentrations of 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100%. Phytochemical screening was performed, and inhibition zones were measured for three days. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s HSD post hoc test. Results: Phytochemical analysis identified alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, and saponins in the extracts. The mean inhibition zone diameters increased with extract concentration, ranging from 2.67 ± 0.58 mm at 40% to 11.67 ± 0.58 mm at 100%. One-way ANOVA showed a statistically significant difference among concentrations (F(3, 8) = 134.25, p < .001), and all pairwise comparisons were significant. Conclusion: Ethanol extracts of red betel leaf and shallot demonstrated significant, concentration-dependent inhibitory activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vitro, supporting their potential as complementary antimicrobial agents and warranting further research in nursing and health sciences.

Abstract

Background: The age of 3–4 years is a critical period for children’s language development, strongly influenced by environmental stimulation, particularly from mothers as primary caregivers. Storytelling is a simple and practical method for language stimulation, yet quantitative evidence of its effectiveness in community or family settings remains limited. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the effect of maternal storytelling stimulation on the language development of children aged 3–4 years. Methods: This study employed a quasi-experimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest approach. A total of 44 mother–child pairs with children aged 3–4 years were selected through purposive sampling. Participants received education and structured guidance to implement storytelling-based language stimulation over four weeks. Children’s language development was assessed using a language screening instrument adapted from the KPSP. As the data were not normally distributed, the Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used for analysis with a significance level of 0.05. Results: The findings demonstrated a statistically significant increase in children’s language development scores following the intervention. Conclusion: Maternal stimulation using the storytelling method significantly improves language development in children aged 3–4 years. This approach is recommended as an evidence-based language stimulation strategy at the family and community levels
