Abstract

This study explores the role of health education by community nurses in reducing smoking habits among adolescents through qualitative interview methods. The background of this problem is rooted in the long-term health impact of smoking habits, which are often influenced by factors such as peer influence and advertising, as well as a lack of knowledge about the dangers of smoking. The purpose of this study is to understand how health education can affect changes in adolescents' smoking knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors, as well as to assess the role of social support from the family. The method used was in-depth interviews with 20 adolescents who had participated in a health education program guided by a community nurse. The interview data was analyzed using thematic analysis techniques to identify key patterns and themes. The results showed that health education significantly increased adolescents' knowledge about the dangers of smoking and improved their attitudes towards the habit. Teens also reported gaining practical skills to resist the offer of smoking, and family support played an important role in their success in quitting smoking. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of integrating health education with family support to increase program effectiveness. Health education programs by community nurses must be continued and expanded, involving other elements of society, and adapted to the needs of adolescents and technological developments. Support from various parties, including government policies and health agencies, is critical to strengthening these programs and creating an environment that supports the overall health of adolescents Keywords : Health Education, Community Nurses, Smoking, Adolescents

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate and summarize the findings from studies related to the effects of butterfly pea flowers (Clitoria ternatea L.) on human health, particularly those related to their therapeutic properties, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, and relaxing effects. The research method used in this study is Systematic Literature Review (SLR). This approach was chosen because of its ability to systematically identify, evaluate, and summarize relevant research results on butterfly pea flowers. Article searches were conducted through academic databases such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar, focusing on studies that discuss the effects of butterfly pea flowers on human health. Based on the analysis results of various existing studies, butterfly pea flowers show great potential in supporting human health. The content of bioactive compounds, such as flavonoids, anthocyanins, and alkaloids, provides various significant therapeutic benefits. Flavonoids and anthocyanins have strong antioxidant properties, play a role in fighting free radicals, and preventing oxidative damage that can cause degenerative diseases. In addition, these compounds have anti-inflammatory effects that are beneficial in managing inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, asthma, and heart disease. Butterfly pea flowers also show neuroprotective effects that can protect nerve cells, improve cognitive function, and protect the brain from neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Alkaloids in butterfly pea flowers also have a relaxing effect that can help reduce anxiety and stress, and improve mental well-being. Although the results obtained are very promising, most studies are still limited to laboratory or animal trials, and further research, especially clinical trials in humans, is needed to confirm their effectiveness, proper dosage, and long-term safety.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the impact of biohacking practices on quality of life and healthy life expectancy (longevity) among individuals who adopt such lifestyles. Biohacking, which involves changes in diet, exercise, stress management, and the use of health-monitoring technology, has rapidly developed as an alternative lifestyle focused on health and longevity. A quantitative research method was employed by distributing questionnaires to 120 respondents actively engaged in biohacking practices. The results showed that most respondents experienced improvements in sleep quality, physical fitness, and mental well-being. Additionally, biohacking practices were found to have a positive correlation with perceptions of longevity, although challenges such as time constraints and financial costs remain obstacles. These findings provide insights into the potential of biohacking in promoting optimal health and extended lifespan, as well as the need to improve health and technological literacy to reach a broader population.

Abstract

Changes in clean and healthy living behavior (PHBS) are an important component in improving public health. However, conventional outreach often faces limitations in reaching the community broadly and sustainably. This study aims to analyze the effect of mobile-based health campaigns (mobile health or mHealth) on changes in PHBS behavior in urban and semi-urban communities. This study used a quantitative approach with a descriptive-correlational design. Data were collected through an online survey of 385 respondents aged 18–50 years in Depok City and Sleman Regency, using a Likert-scale questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using the Pearson correlation test and simple linear regression. The results showed a positive and significant relationship between exposure to mHealth campaigns and PHBS behavior, with the highest correlation values for content quality (r = 0.47) and total exposure score (r = 0.521; p < 0.001). Linear regression showed that mHealth explained 27.1% of the variation in PHBS behavior (R² = 0.271) with a coefficient of b = 0.513. In conclusion, high-quality, relevant, and consistent mHealth campaigns play a crucial role in driving change in healthy, clean, and healthy lifestyle behaviors. Health promotion strategies in the digital era need to integrate these approaches in an adaptive and evidence-based manner.
