Abstract

Introduction: Non-hemorrhagic stroke is a brain disorder caused by the cessation or blockage of blood flow to the brain. Aphasia is a disorder in language function that arises from brain injury. Speech therapy is a rehabilitation process for people with communication disorders, so that they can interact more effectively. The use of the AIUEO method in therapy can help improve pronunciation, so that it is more easily understood by others by moving the tongue, lips, and facial muscles. Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of speech therapy on the level of aphasia in patients who have non-hemorrhagic stroke in the Seruni Room of RSUD Hajjah Andi Depu. Method: This research design is quantitative with a pre-experimental approach. The method used is one group pretest-posttest design. Results: The results of statistical analysis using the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test with the help of SPSS showed a significant value (2-tailed) of 0.004. This means (p<0.05), so that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted and the null hypothesis (H0) is rejected. Thus, there is a positive effect of speech therapy on the level of aphasia in non-hemorrhagic stroke patients in the Seruni Room of RSUD Hajjah Andi Depu. Conclusion: A 2024 study at Hajjah Andi Depu Hospital found that speech therapy significantly improved aphasia in non-hemorrhagic stroke patients. Patients' aphasia scores significantly improved after speech therapy (p < 0.05).

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by persistent hyperglycemia due to impaired insulin secretion or insulin resistance. In addition to pharmacological therapy, complementary treatments derived from natural products are increasingly explored to support glycemic control. Bitter melon (Momordica charantia L.) contains bioactive compounds with potential hypoglycemic effects. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of bitter melon juice on blood glucose levels among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Madatte Village, Polewali District. A quasi-experimental study with a pre-test and post-test time-series design was conducted. Fifteen patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were selected using consecutive sampling and received 200 grams of freshly prepared bitter melon juice once daily. Blood glucose levels were measured at baseline, after 3 days, and after 7 days of intervention using a glucometer. Data were analyzed using the Friedman test. The results demonstrated a gradual reduction in mean blood glucose levels from 194.60 mg/dL at baseline to 191.93 mg/dL after 3 days and 184.80 mg/dL after 7 days. Statistical analysis showed a significant difference in blood glucose levels across the measurement periods (p = 0.01; p < 0.05). In conclusion, daily consumption of bitter melon juice was associated with a significant reduction in blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, with a more pronounced effect observed after seven days of intervention. Bitter melon juice may be considered a complementary approach for glycemic control.
