Abstract

Background: The rising prevalence of diabetes mellitus globally necessitates the exploration of alternative treatment options. Phaleria macrocarpa, known for its traditional use in the treatment of various ailments, has garnered interest as a potential adjunctive therapy for diabetes. Objective: This review synthesizes current research on the efficacy and safety of Phaleria macrocarpa in the management of diabetes, outlining its therapeutic potential, pharmacological mechanisms, and future research directions. Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted, encompassing studies that investigated the effects of Phaleria macrocarpa on diabetes-related parameters in preclinical and clinical settings. Results: The collected data suggest that Phaleria macrocarpa may improve blood glucose control and insulin sensitivity. Several studies indicate a positive effect on metabolic parameters in diabetes. However, the safety profile warrants further investigation, as does the standardization of dosages. Conclusions: While preliminary findings show promise for the integration of Phaleria macrocarpa into diabetes care, extensive clinical trials are required to confirm efficacy and establish safety. Moreover, a better understanding of the plant's bioactive compounds, their mechanisms of action, and potential interactions with standard diabetes treatments is essential. The cultural importance of Phaleria macrocarpa supports its continued investigation, recognizing the need to respect and integrate traditional knowledge with contemporary medical practices.

Abstract

Bronchial asthma is a chronic inflammatory respiratory disease due to increased sensitivity of the airways to various stimuli. Bronchial asthma is not only a public health problem in developed countries, but also occurs in developing countries (WHO, 2016). Anxiety is a vague feeling of worry due to discomfort or fear accompanied by an autonomic response (the source is often unspecific or unknown to the individual), a feeling of worry caused by the anticipation of danger. Anxiety is a sign of increased alertness to impending danger and allows individuals to take action to face the threat (Doenges, 2015). The prevalence of anxiety disorders ranges from 6-7% of the general population (females are more prevalent than males) (Stuart, 2006). Lecturers and students from the Nursing and Nursing Study Program at Imelda University, Medan, chose to hold health education activities with the aim of helping as well as training both individuals and families regarding deep breathing exercises. This makes them aware and more diligent in practicing their breathing. The health education carried out in the courtyard of the sub-district office in Tanjung Mulia downstream began with holding talk activities and continued with outdoor counseling activities. This health education activity is of great interest to families in the community and it is hoped that it can be used as a lesson and make individuals and families more aware of the importance of deep breathing exercises to reduce anxiety in people with asthma.
