Abstract

Cervical cancer is one of the leading causes of death in women, which is mostly caused by Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection. The HPV vaccine is one of the effective prevention efforts, but maternal awareness in giving vaccines to children is still a challenge. This study aims to analyze the relationship between access to information, the role of health workers, and family support with maternal awareness of HPV vaccine administration to girls aged 9-14 years in the working area of the South City Health Center. This study uses an observational analytical method with a cross sectional approach. The research population was 166 mothers with a sample of 117 respondents obtained using purposive sampling techniques. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed univariate and bivariate using the Chi-Square test. The results showed that most of the respondents had good awareness (75.2%). Respondents' access to information was mostly in the poor category (65.8%), while the role of health workers (66.7%) and family support (56.4%) was in the good category. The results of the analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between access to information (p = 0.000), the role of health workers (p = 0.000), and family support (p = 0.000) and maternal awareness of HPV vaccine administration. The conclusion of this study shows that access to information, the role of health workers, and family support are significantly related to maternal awareness of HPV vaccine administration.

Abstract

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by intense pruritus, recurrent exacerbations, and substantial impairment in quality of life. The persistently high number of atopic dermatitis cases within the Kabila Primary Health Center catchment area highlights the need to identify factors associated with disease severity. This study aimed to analyze factors associated with the severity of atopic dermatitis among patients in the Kabila Primary Health Center catchment area, Bone Bolango Regency. An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted. The study population consisted of 181 adults diagnosed with atopic dermatitis, from which 125 respondents were selected using purposive sampling based on the Slovin formula. Data were collected using an atopic dermatitis knowledge questionnaire, the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) to assess dietary patterns, the stress subscale of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-42) to measure stress levels, a moisturizer-use questionnaire, and direct observation to assess atopic dermatitis severity. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test with a 95% confidence level (α = 0.05).: Knowledge level was significantly associated with atopic dermatitis severity (p = 0.004). Dietary patterns were also significantly associated with disease severity (p = 0.001). In contrast, no significant associations were found between stress levels (p = 0.167) or moisturizer use (p = 0.300) and atopic dermatitis severity.  Knowledge level and dietary patterns were significantly associated with the severity of atopic dermatitis. Strengthening patient education and promoting appropriate dietary practices may contribute to improved disease control and reduced severity among individuals with atopic dermatitis.

Abstract

Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) remain a global health problem, including among adolescents who are vulnerable due to limited knowledge about STIs and suboptimal preventive behavior. Globally, STIs contribute to approximately 2.3 million deaths. In Indonesia, the number of new STI cases has reached 45,000 cases. In Gorontalo City, STI cases among adolescents increased from 370 cases in 2023 to 515 cases in 2024. Video-based education is considered effective because it delivers information through audiovisual media, making it easier for adolescents to understand. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of video-based education on adolescents' knowledge and preventive behavior regarding STIs at Madrasah Aliyah Muhammadiyah Kota Gorontalo.This quantitative pre-experimental study used a one-group pretest-posttest design with 31 twelfth-grade students selected via total sampling. Knowledge and behavior questionnaires were used as research instruments. The collected data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test because the data were not normally distributed.The results showed that the average knowledge score increased from 8.52 to 11.46, while the behavior score increased from 32.55 to 38.94. The p-values for knowledge and behavior were both 0.000 (p<0.05). In conclusion, video-based education had a significant effect on adolescents' knowledge and preventive behavior regarding STIs.

Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by impaired insulin secretion and/or action due to pancreatic beta-cell dysfunction and insulin resistance. This condition causes uncontrolled elevation of blood glucose levels. One nonpharmacological approach to diabetes management is yoga therapy. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the effect of yoga therapy on reducing blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods: This study used a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design without a control group. A total of 30 respondents were selected using purposive sampling. The inclusion criteria were patients with T2DM aged ≥ 45 years, blood glucose levels ≥ 200 mg/dL, willingness to participate, ability to follow yoga therapy, and absence of severe physical disorders. The exclusion criteria included noncompliance with therapy and clinical conditions that could endanger respondents during yoga. Blood glucose levels were measured using an Autocheck device. Data were analyzed using a paired t-test. Results: There was a significant difference in blood glucose levels before and after yoga therapy (p < 0.001). The mean blood glucose level decreased from 265.23 mg/dL to 207.60 mg/dL in the final week. Conclusion: Yoga therapy reduced blood glucose levels among patients with T2DM at Bulukunyi Community Health Center, Takalar Regency.
