Abstract

Hypertension is a serious health issue worldwide, leading to cardiovascular diseases like heart attack, heart failure, stroke, and kidney disease. To prevent hypertension, a combination of pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods is necessary, including adopting a healthy lifestyle and consuming herbal plants. For instance, cucumber juice therapy and a mix of beetroot and pineapple juice are commonly used. This study aims to compare the effects of red beet juice and cucumber juice on the blood pressure of hypertensive patients in Drien Tujoh Village, Tripa Makmur District, Nagan Raya Regency in 2023. The research involved 30 hypertensive patients over 35 years old, divided into two groups. The results showed a significant difference in blood pressure before and after the intervention with beetroot juice and cucumber juice. This indicates that both interventions can help lower blood pressure in hypertensive patients.

Abstract

The incidence of gout in the world is estimated at 47.2% which varies in various populations spread throughout the world. The prevalence of gout in the population aged> 15 years according to the district of Aceh Jaya based on the highest doctor's diagnosis is in several gampong (12.62%), therefore the Indarajaya Health Center working area was chosen as the location of this study. This study aims to determine the predictors of gout in communities in coastal areas. This study used a case-control study design. The population in this study were people living in coastal areas of the Indra Jaya Health Center working area with a total sample of 106 samples (53 cases and 53 controls). Sampling using a simple random sampling technique. Data collection using a questionnaire and the data that has been collected is statistically analyzed using the chi-square test at a confidence level of 95% (α = 0.05) which aims to analyze predictors of uric acid. The results showed that genetic factors with a value of (p = 0.004: OR = 3.559: CI = 1.483-8.539) and purine consumption patterns with a value of (p = 0.02: OR = 3.103: CI = 1.162-8.288). It can be concluded that genetic factors and purine consumption patterns are predictors or risk factors for the incidence of gout in coastal communities in the Indrajaya Health Center working area. We recommend that coastal communities limit food.
