Abstract

The growth and development of toddlers is influenced by hereditary and environmental factors. Genetic factors, biologically have strong influences on toddlers’ growth in their early years of life. While psychologically, a good interpersonal relation of pregnant women with their families will make them more ready to undergo the pregnancy and childbirth. On the other hand, socially, the level of parental education might affect the nutrition intake and parenting patterns. For the economic factor, the level of family income and their ability to provide sufficient nutrition input might affect the nutritional status during gestation. The nutrition input during pregnancy highly contributes to the fetus growth and development. A poor nutrition input during gestation might cause an Intrauterine Growth Retardation (IUGR) and growth and development disorder. This study aimed to analyze the bio-psychosocial and economic factors of gestation period on toddler growth and development. This is a correlational analytic study with 80 mothers and toddlers as the sample. The data was analysed using univariat, bivariate with Chi square and multivariate with logistic regression. The results show that the statistically significant independent variables which influence the growth and development of toddlers are the mother height (p = 0.001), LILA (p = 0.008), family income (p = 0.007), infant birth weight (p = 0.009) and family support (p = 0.013). While the statistically insignificant independent variable is the mother level of education (p = 0.086).

Abstract

Exclusive breastfeeding remains difficult to achieve, with prevalence still falling short of national and global targets. One contributing factor is the discomfort experienced during nursing, such as nipple cracks and blocked milk ducts, which can reduce milk output and discourage continued breastfeeding. Carrot juice, rich in beta-carotene, vitamin A, and antioxidants, offers anti-inflammatory benefits that may accelerate healing, relieve pain, and prevent complications like mastitis. Given these properties, carrot juice is a simple, natural addition to postpartum care. Carrot juice should be given urgently to breastfeeding mothers as it contains beta-carotene and antioxidants that help reduce inflammation, relieve nipple pain, and prevent blocked milk ducts. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of carrot juice (Daucus carota L.) in improving breastfeeding outcomes by reducing the incidence of nipple cracks and blocked milk ducts. A quasi-experimental design was used involving 15 breastfeeding mothers. Participants consumed 250 cc of freshly prepared carrot juice daily for seven days. Data were collected before and after the intervention using observation sheets and analyzed with the Wilcoxon test. The results showed a Z value of -3.41 (p=0.001) for nipple cracks and -3.29 (p=0.001) for blocked ducts. Both p-values (< 0.05) indicate significant improvement post-intervention. These findings confirm that regular consumption of carrot juice can effectively reduce the severity of nipple injuries and milk duct blockages. Carrot juice is a low-cost, accessible, and safe nutritional therapy that supports lactation. Further research is recommended to explore its mechanism of action and potential dosage optimization for broader clinical application.

Abstract

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem that impairs child growth. Its main causes include inadequate dietary intake and recurrent gastrointestinal infections. Probiotic and prebiotic–based interventions are believed to improve gut function and enhance nutrient absorption. This study applied a pre–post test design involving 15 stunted toddlers. The intervention consisted of locally sourced foods containing probiotics and prebiotics, administered for 14 days. Data collection included body weight, height, and Z-scores, measured before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The mean body weight increased by 0.25 kg (p=0.001), while height increased by 0.64 cm (p=0.001). The weight-for-age Z-score improved by 0.27, and the height-for-age Z-score improved by 0.23. All participants demonstrated positive changes, with no decrease observed. Locally sourced foods containing probiotics and prebiotics were proven effective in improving body weight and height among stunted toddlers. This approach offers a simple, affordable, and practical nutritional strategy for the prevention and management of stunting at the community level.

Abstract

Abstract Back pain is a common physically distressing side effect reported by cervical cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, impacting their adherence to treatment and quality of life. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of Friction massage in reducing post-chemotherapy back pain among cervical cancer patients at the Singkarak Room of Dr. Saiful Anwar Hospital, Malang. A Quasi-Experimental design with a One-Group Pretest-Posttest approach was employed. A sample of 25 respondents was selected using accidental sampling based on specific inclusion criteria. Data on pain intensity were measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) before and immediately after a 20-minute Friction massage intervention, then analyzed using a paired t-test. The results showed that before the intervention, 76% of respondents experienced mild pain and 24% had moderate pain. After the Friction massage, 68% reported no pain and 32% reported mild pain. The paired t-test obtained a significant value (p = 0.001, < 0.05), indicating that H1 is accepted. In conclusion, Friction massage is an effective non-pharmacological complementary modality for reducing post-chemotherapy back pain in cervical cancer patients. Clinical implementation of this intervention as a standard nursing care protocol is highly recommended to improve patient comfort.

Abstract

Background: Postpartum anemia and delayed uterine involution may hinder maternal recovery and increase postpartum morbidity. Angkak (Monascus purpureus-fermented red rice) contains iron, amino acids, antioxidants, and bioactive compounds that may support hemoglobin synthesis, erythropoiesis, and tissue repair. However, evidence regarding its use among postpartum mothers remains limited. Aim this study to assess changes in uterine involution and hemoglobin levels among postpartum mothers after consuming angkak infusion. Methods: A quasi-experimental one-group pre–post study was conducted among 25 postpartum mothers. Participants consumed 3 g of angkak infused in 150 mL of warm water daily for 14 days. Fundal height was measured on postpartum days 1, 7, and 14, while hemoglobin levels were assessed on days 1 and 14. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test and paired sample t-test. Result: Mean fundal height decreased from 16.84 cm on day 1 to 11.80 cm on day 7 and approximately 7–8 cm on day 14. Mean hemoglobin levels increased from 10.42 g/dL to 11.72 g/dL. Both changes were statistically significant. No adverse effects were reported during the intervention. Conclusion: Daily angkak infusion for 14 days was associated with improved uterine involution and increased hemoglobin levels among postpartum mothers. However, due to the absence of a control group, causal conclusions cannot be established. Further controlled studies with larger samples are recommended.
