Freedom emotional technique (EFT) therapy is a non-pharmacological treatment that can help change blood pressure. During the Covid-19 pandemic, online EFT is the right solution. This study aims to determine the effect of online-based EFT on blood pressure during the Covid-19 pandemic. This research method uses pre-experimental, namely one group pretest and posttest design. The sample was selected using purposive sampling technique with a total sample of 50 respondents. The research location is Kalimeang village, Karangsembung Sub-district, Cirebon District, Indonesia. The research instruments used were observation sheets, sphygmomanometers, and stethoscopes. The data analysis used the Wilcoxon test. The results of this study indicated that online-based EFT therapy affected the change in blood pressure among patients with hypertension during the covid-19 pandemic. This research contributes to the reference of nursing practice by applying EFT therapy to patients to change their blood pressure with online treatment.

Intermittent fasting has become an interesting research topic in an attempt to control glucose index. This study Glucose index is an important parameter in diabetes management and general health. Intermittent fasting has become an interesting research topic in an attempt to control glucose index. Purpose: This study aims to conduct a systematic review of the different types of intermittent fasting and their impact on glucose index control. Method: The research method used was a thorough literature search in scientific databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect for articles investigating different types of intermittent fasting in the context of glucose index control. We evaluated these articles based on their methodological quality and identified key findings. Results: The results of this systematic review showed that different types of intermittent fasting, including 16/8 fasting, 5:2 fasting, daily fasting, and full-day fasting, have varying impacts on glucose index control. Some studies showed significant reductions in fasting blood glucose levels, improved insulin sensitivity, and decreased insulin resistance. However, the results may vary depending on the duration of fasting, the type of food consumed during the feeding period, and individual characteristics. Conclusion: suggests that intermittent fasting could be a potentially effective strategy in glucose index control. However, more studies need to be conducted to better understand which type of intermittent fasting is most effective and safe for individuals with various health conditions.
