Abstract

Abstract: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action or both. Hyperglycemia is a medical condition in the form of an increase in blood glucose levels that exceeds normal. Based on the cause, DM can be classified into 4 groups, namely type I DM, type II DM, gestational DM and other types of DM. The purpose of this study was to determine the comparison of the decrease in blood glucose levels when type 2 DM patients were hospitalized with Metformin and Glimepirid. This research is an observational study with the type of analytic descriptive study. The sample in the study amounted to 103 patients, the sample was taken using a purposive sampling technique and the instrument used was medical record data of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Data analysis used the Mann Whitney test and the Wilcoxon test. The results showed that there was no significant difference (p>0.05) between generic metformin monotherapy and generic glimepiride monotherapy in lowering transient blood glucose levels.Keywords: Diabetes Melitus Type II, Metformin, Glimepirid, Current Blood Glucose.

Abstract

Background: School-aged children are particularly vulnerable to soil-transmitted helminths (STH) infections due to frequent exposure to contaminated soil during play and poor personal hygiene practices. Although games have been widely used as educational tools in health promotion, there is limited research on the effectiveness of board games specifically designed to prevent STH infections in children.Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a board game-based educational intervention in enhancing knowledge of STH among elementary school students.Methods: Analytical experimental design using a pre-test and post-test intervention approach without a control group was employed. The subjects of this study were elementary school students in grades 3 to 6 who met specific criteria. A total of 94 students participated. Knowledge was assessed using questionnaires. The intervention involved small-group sessions (4–6 students per group) using a custom-designed educational board game about STH. The collected data were analyzed using a dependent t-test, while multivariate ordinal regression was employed for multivariate analysis. Results: The average test score improved from 0.60 (± 0.15) to 0.74 (± 0.14) post-intervention, representing a significant 14% increase in knowledge (p = 0.00). Age was not a significant predictor of post-test performance (β = 0.310; p = 0.429). Male students (β = 1.068; p = 0.013) and those in grade 4 (β = 2.031; p = 0.036; OR = 7.62, 95% CI: 1.15–50.56) were significantly more likely to achieve higher post-test scores.Conclusion: Board game-based education effectively improved knowledge about soil-transmitted helminth infection among elementary school students. This study offers novel evidence supporting the use of board games for helminthiasis prevention.
