Abstract

Background: Pregnant women experience lower quality of life compared to the general population and experience a decrease in their quality of life as their pregnancy progresses. Video interactive provides an interesting and interactive environment, so participants would be more likely to enjoy completing their physical activity regimen. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the impact of video interactive-based exercise on quality of life among pregnant women in Indonesia. Methods: A quasi-experimental study was carried out in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia from August 2023 to January 2024. The intervention and control groups involved healthy pregnant women aged above 18 years old, second trimester pregnant, advised by healthcare, literate, and willing to participate in physical activity. The study involved 264 pregnant women, with a response rate of 96%. Data was collected before (T0), immediately after (T1), and 2 weeks after the intervention (T2). The videos covered combination of exercise program for pregnant women, including warm-up, main phase (with an aerobic element, followed by strength and endurance exercises) and final stretching and relaxation. quality of life was measure using quality of life Gravidarum. The analysis was evaluated using repeated ANOVA test and difference-in-difference estimate. Results: After a two-week follow-up, the intervention group showed a substantial increase in quality of life scores, with a moderate level of impact (effect size= 0.39). The difference-in-difference estimate showed a modest increase of 3.57 percentage points between groups. Conclusion: The study demonstrated that video interactive exercise significantly improved the quality of life for pregnant women, indicating the potential for encouraging their participation in such activities.

Abstract

AbstractObjective: To determine the effect of administering 96% ethanol extract of turmeric (Curcuma longa Linn, syn. Curcuma domestica Val.) on the antifertility effect on male rats. Methods: 18 Male and 18 Female Sprague-Dawley Rats were grouped into 6 Groups, namely the Control Group, Positive Control Group (Birth Control Pills), Treatment Group 1 with a dose of 25 mg/KgBW, Treatment Group 2 with a dose of 50 mg/KgBW, Treatment Group 3 with a dose of 25 mg/KgBW, Treatment Group Mating of Male and Female Rats given turmeric with a dose of 50 mg/KgBW, Treatment Group Mating of Male and Female Rats given turmeric is Male with a dose of 50 mg/KgBW. Turmeric extract was given orally every day for 30 days. Results: The data obtained were statistically analyzed using a one-way ANOVA test. Testosterone levels increased compared to the control group, indicating no significant difference, with a P value of 0.317 (p>0.05), and in vivo male sperm motility at doses of 25 mg/kgBW, 50 mg/kgBW, and 100 mg/kgBW was significantly different from the control group (p 0.00 < 0.05).Conclusion: Giving 96% turmeric ethanol extract (Curcuma longa Linn, syn. Curcuma domestica Val.) did not affect testosterone levels in male rats in vivo at doses of 25 mg/kgBW, 50 mg/kgBW, and 100 mg/kgBW, with a significance value of p 0.317 > 0.05, indicating no significant difference. Meanwhile, sperm motility testing showed a significant difference with a result of p = 0.00 < 0.05. For further research, it is hoped that further observations will be made regarding the potential of turmeric ethanol extract by conducting histological tests, and a mating test will be carried out as evidence of whether or not the treated rats are fertile.
