This research instrument uses a questionnaire. The analysis methods used were univariate and bivariate analysis (paired sample t-test and independent sample t-test). The results showed that in the intervention group, the average score before being given health education was 61.45 and the average value after being given health education was 89.91, while in the control group there was no increase. The results of the paired sample t-test obtained a p-value = 0.000 (<0.05) meaning that there is an influence of health education on dysmenorrhea management knowledge. The results of the independent sample t-test obtained p value = 0.000 (<0.05) meaning that there was a significant difference between the level of knowledge of female students in the intervention group and the control group.

Abstract

Anemia remains a significant contributor to the rising maternal mortality rate (MMR) in recent years. In the Special Region of Yogyakarta, the prevalence of anemia among pregnant women increased from 14.23% in 2017 to 16.5% in 2021. Previous studies have shown that anemia during pregnancy may result in adverse maternal and fetal outcomes, including fetal growth restriction, premature delivery, low birth weight, congenital anomalies, and elevated risks of neonatal and perinatal mortality. This study aims to analyze the relationship between maternal age, interpregnancy interval, and nutritional status based on Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC), and the case of anemia among third-trimester pregnant women at Puskesmas (Public Health Center) Tegalrejo, Yogyakarta. A retrospective case–control design was used, involving 86 pregnant women with anemia (cases) and 86 without anemia (controls). Statistical analysis showed significant associations between all three factors and the case of anemia. At a 0.05 significance level, 70 respondents (81.4%) were of high-risk maternal age (<20 years or >35 years) (p = 0.000; OR = 13.542; 95% CI: 6.508–28.179); 62 respondents (72.1%) had a short interpregnancy interval (<2 years) (p = 0.000; OR = 7.996; 95% CI: 4.046–15.802); and 56 respondents (65.1%) had Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) indicated by a MUAC of <23.5 cm (p = 0.000; OR = 6.160; 95% CI: 3.157–12.020). These findings confirm that maternal age, short interpregnancy intervals, and poor nutritional status are significant determinants of anemia in the third trimester.

Abstract

The incidence of HIV/AIDS continues to rise. The high number of cases among adolescents is due to their lack of knowledge and attitudes about HIV/AIDS, which directly affects the prevention of this disease. Knowledge about HIV/AIDS is considered crucial, as it plays a role in shaping public perceptions, thereby influencing their understanding and awareness. HIV/AIDS health education for adolescents can be an effective approach to developing their knowledge about reproductive health and sexually transmitted diseases. This study aims to investigate the impact of HIV/AIDS health education on the knowledge level of 11th-grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Pundong. This study employed nonequivalent pretest-posttest control group design. The sampling technique used was probability sampling, with a total of 32 respondents divided into an experimental group of 16 and a control group of 16. Data were analyzed using non-parametric tests: the Wilcoxon matched-pairs test and the Mann-Whitney U test. Based on the pretest and posttest results, the average knowledge score in the experimental group increased from 60.69 to 83.00, while in the control group it rose from 63.70 to 73.00. The analysis showed a significant difference in knowledge levels before and after the HIV/AIDS health education intervention in both the experimental and control groups, with a p-value of 0.004 (p < 0.05). This study concludes that HIV/AIDS health education has a significant effect on improving the knowledge of 11th-grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Pundong.
