Abstract

Gout arthritis is a disease characterized by sudden inflammation of the joints due to high levels of uric acid in the body (hyperuricemia). This condition is marked by acute episodes of joint inflammation, often affecting a single joint and preceded by asymptomatic periods of varying duration. Older adults represent the final stage in the human lifespan and experience the natural aging process. This study employed an analytic survey design with a cross-sectional approach. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between gout arthritis pain and the level of independence in activities of daily living among patients at the Helvetia Public Health Center. The results showed that the majority of older adults in the working area of UPT Puskesmas Helvetia experienced high levels of pain, with 73 respondents reporting severe pain. Meanwhile, most respondents demonstrated independence in their daily activities, with 72 categorized as independent. The findings indicate a significant relationship between gout arthritis and the level of independence in activities of daily living among older patients at the Helvetia Public Health Center.

Abstract

Schizophrenia is a chronic mental disorder that requires long-term antipsychotic therapy. Medication adherence plays an important role in treatment success but is often affected by drug side effects such as weight gain, which impacts Body Mass Index (BMI). Changes in BMI may influence patient motivation and adherence to treatment. This quantitative study used a cross-sectional design conducted at Dr. Pirngadi General Hospital Medan from January to February 2026. A total of 106 schizophrenia patients were selected using quota sampling. Medication adherence was measured using the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale-8 (MMAS-8), and BMI was calculated based on weight and height measurements. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test with a 95% confidence level. Most respondents had abnormal BMI (72 patients; 67.9%), and high medication adherence was found in 74 patients (69.8%). In the normal BMI group, most patients had high adherence (30 patients; 88.2%), while in the abnormal BMI group, high adherence was found in 44 patients (61.1%). Chi-Square analysis showed a significant relationship between BMI and medication adherence in schizophrenia patients (p=0.017).
