Abstract

Postpartum blues syndrome is a mild emotional disorder experienced by mothers after giving birth. This disorder can affect the emotional well-being of the mother and her relationship with the baby. Postpartum exercise therapy and a healthy diet are believed to reduce the symptoms of postpartum blues syndrome. This study aims to analyze the effects of postpartum exercise and a healthy diet on the recovery of baby blues syndrome in postpartum mothers. Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent pre- and post-test control group design. The sample consisted of 37 postpartum mothers who were divided into an intervention group (postpartum exercise and a healthy diet) and a control group. Data were collected using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) questionnaire to measure maternal depression symptoms before and after the intervention. Data analysis was performed using t-tests and multivariate tests. Results: The results showed a significant decrease in depression symptoms in the group that received the intervention compared to the control group (P<0.001). The depression symptoms score decreased by an average of 3.74 in the intervention group that followed postpartum exercise, while a healthy diet contributed to a decrease in depression symptoms with an average reduction of 2.32. Conclusion: Postpartum exercise and a healthy diet can significantly reduce the symptoms of postpartum blues syndrome. Therefore, postpartum exercise and a healthydiet are recommended as routine therapy for postpartum mothers.

Abstract

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is often considered a drought-sensitive crop, and its sustained production is increasingly threatened by frequent drought events. Drought presents one of the most significant challenges to potato production worldwide. Plants experience water stress when the water they receive is insufficient to meet their actual needs. The effects of drought stress range from disruptions at the molecular and biochemical levels within cells to physiological and morphological impairments at the leaf and whole-plant levels. Potato plants are particularly vulnerable to drought due to their shallow root systems. As a result, climate change is expected to have a considerable impact on global potato production, as limited water availability can significantly reduce tuber yield. Potato plants respond to drought stress through various physiological, biochemical, and molecular strategies. This review compiles research findings to better understand the impact of water stress on tuber formation, the mechanisms through which drought stress affects potato plants, the plant's resistance responses, and strategies to mitigate the effects of drought stress in potatoes.

Abstract

Soil salinity has emerged as a major constraint to global food production, with its severity continuously escalating due to anthropogenic activities such as excessive irrigation, land degradation, and climate change. Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), a staple crop and primary source of carbohydrates and energy for much of the global population, is particularly sensitive to salinity stress. High salt concentrations adversely affect the plant’s physiological and biochemical processes, including inhibited seed germination, stunted vegetative growth, disrupted reproductive development, reduced enzymatic activity, and impaired photosynthesis. Salinity stress also causes hormonal imbalances, induces oxidative stress through the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and ultimately leads to significant yield losses. A comprehensive understanding of wheat’s responses to salinity stress is essential for developing effective mitigation strategies. Efforts to enhance salinity tolerance have included the selection of tolerant genotypes, conventional breeding programs, and molecular approaches such as genetic engineering. While promising, these methods are often time-consuming, costly, and labor-intensive. As a complementary solution, agronomic management practices have gained attention for their practical application in improving wheat performance under saline conditions. Techniques such as the use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), exogenous phytohormone application, seed priming, and proper nutrient management have shown effectiveness in enhancing plant resilience and productivity in saline soils. This paper reviews the physiological impacts of salinity on wheat, explores potential adaptive mechanisms, and discusses practical management strategies aimed at improving wheat performance under salt stress conditions.
