Abstract

Overweight among adolescents has become an important public health concern because it increases the risk of various degenerative diseases and long-term health complications. Poor dietary patterns, particularly frequent consumption of fast food and junk food, are often associated with limited nutritional literacy among adolescents. This study aimed to examine the effect of nutritional literacy on fast food and junk food consumption behavior among overweight adolescents. This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test control group approach. The sample consisted of 46 overweight adolescents from SMA Negeri 7 Bengkulu City, divided into an intervention group (23 participants) and a control group (23 participants), selected using purposive sampling. The intervention group received nutritional literacy education using a flipchart accompanied by explanations, while the control group received education through leaflets without explanation. The study variables included nutritional literacy, fast food and junk food consumption habits, body weight, and height. Data were analyzed using independent t-test, paired t-test, Mann–Whitney test, and Wilcoxon test. The results showed a significant increase in knowledge scores before and after the nutritional literacy intervention (p = 0.014). There was a significant difference in the mean change in attitude scores between the intervention and control groups (p = 0.0001), with a higher improvement observed in the intervention group. In addition, there was a significant difference in the mean change in fast food and junk food consumption habits between the two groups (p = 0.043). In conclusion, nutritional literacy education is effective in improving knowledge, attitudes, and reducing fast food and junk food consumption behavior among overweight adolescents.Keywords: nutritional literacy; consumption behavior; overweight

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a prevalent non-communicable disease associated with serious complications. Physical activity is a modifiable risk factor that plays an important role in glycemic control. This study aimed to analyze differences in fasting blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels based on physical activity levels among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus at primary health care centers in Kupang City. An analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted involving 71 respondents selected through consecutive sampling. Physical activity levels were assessed using the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ). fasting blood glucose was measured from capillary blood samples, while HbA1c was obtained from venous blood samples. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate methods, and mean differences across PA categories were tested using one-way ANOVA. The results showed no statistically significant differences in fasting blood glucose (p = 0.610) or HbA1c (p = 0.283) based on physical activity levels. In conclusion, physical activity level was not significantly associated with fasting blood glucose or HbA1c among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus at primary health care centers in Kupang City. These findings suggest that optimal glycemic control requires a holistic approach, including physical activity, treatment adherence, and dietary management.Keywords: physical activity; fasting blood glucose; glycated hemoglobin; type 2 diabetes mellitus; primary health care centers

Abstract

Fransina Alfonsina Izaac1, Natalia Paskawati Adimuntja1, Dolfinus Yufu Bouway1, Katarina Lodia Tuturop11Faculty of Public Health, Universitas Cendrawasih, Jayapura, IndonesiaCorrespondence: Fransina Alfonsina Izaac: Kampus Abepura, Universitas Cendrawasih, Abepura, Indonesia; fanyizaac87@gmail.com ABSTRACTAdolescents often internalize the labels “good boy” and “good girl” as indicators of obedience, achievement, and parental approval. These labels function as symbolic expectations that shape behavior, academic engagement, and daily routines. This study aimed to explore how the social construction of good boy and good girl labels influences adolescents’ productivity patterns and contributes to the emergence of toxic productivity among early adolescents in Jayapura. A qualitative phenomenological design was employed with eleven participants were selected through purposive sampling, consisting of six adolescents aged 10–13 years and five parents. Data were collected through participatory observation, in‑depth semi‑structured interviews, and documentation. All interviews were audio‑recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed using thematic content analysis. Credibility was ensured through source triangulation between adolescents and parents. Three major themes emerged. First, overscheduling and externally driven activities: Adolescents participated in multiple extracurricular activities, computer courses, drawing, sports, church music, karate, and English classes often because “my parents told me to,” leading to fatigue and limited rest. Second, fake personality and conditional approval: Adolescents reported emotional pressure to maintain the good child image, often pretending to be obedient to avoid criticism or comparison. One participant stated, “Sometimes I pretend to be good so people will call me a good child.” Third, academic stress: High parental expectations and fear of disappointing adults led adolescents to associate academic performance with moral worth. Many expressed guilt and anxiety when unable to meet expectations, believing they must study “to achieve my parents’ dreams.” In conclusion, the social construction of good boy and good girl labels significantly shapes adolescents’ behavior, emotional experiences, and productivity patterns. These labels contribute to overscheduling, identity suppression, and heightened academic stress, collectively fostering toxic productivity in early adolescents.Keywords: good boy, good girl, toxic productivity, adolescents, parental expectations, academic stress, phenomenology

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder that requires effective therapeutic strategies with minimal adverse effects. The search for complementary antidiabetic agents derived from natural products has gained increasing attention, particularly those with potential antihyperglycemic activity and favorable safety profiles. Corn silk (Stigma maydis) contains bioactive compounds reported to influence glucose metabolism, making it a promising candidate for adjunctive therapy in T2DM management. This study aimed to evaluate the antihyperglycemic effect of the optimal dose of Stigma maydis ethanol extract (P3) compared with metformin (positive control, K+) in alloxan‑induced hyperglycemic male Swiss Webster mice. Male Swiss Webster mice were induced with alloxan at 150 mg/kgBW to establish a hyperglycemic model. The optimal dose of Stigma maydis extract (P3) and metformin (K+) were administered orally for 14 days. Blood glucose levels were measured before and after treatment. Paired t‑tests were used to assess within‑group changes, while independent t‑tests were applied to compare post‑treatment glucose levels between groups. The P3 group demonstrated a significant reduction in blood glucose levels (p = 0.003), with a post‑treatment mean of 111.40 mg/dL. Although the numerical decrease in the P3 group exceeded that of the metformin group, the difference between groups was not statistically significant (p = 0.576). These findings indicate that the antihyperglycemic activity of Stigma maydis extract is statistically comparable to metformin under the experimental conditions tested. In conclusion, the optimal dose of Stigma maydis ethanol extract produced a significant antihyperglycemic effect in alloxan‑induced mice, with efficacy comparable to metformin. These results support the potential of Stigma maydis as a complementary therapeutic option for T2DM management, warranting further investigation in larger preclinical and clinical studies.Keywords: Stigma maydis; metformin; antihyperglycemic activity

Abstract

Household waste is predominantly organic, consisting of food scraps, vegetables, and fruits that naturally decompose. However, the decomposition process may lead to environmental and health problems if not properly managed; therefore, appropriate waste management is essential. One method for managing household waste is composting. This study aimed to determine the potential of the bioinoculant BioTP to enhance macronutrient content in household organic waste compost. This research employed an experimental pretest–posttest with control design. Macronutrient levels (N, P, and K) in household organic waste were measured before and after the decomposition process in both the treatment group (with BioTP) and the control group. The data were analyzed using a t-test. The results showed that after decomposition, all macronutrients (N, P, and K) in the treatment group increased. The macronutrient content in all treatments met the standards for organic fertilizer. Statistical analysis before and after decomposition indicated a significant difference in nitrogen (N) levels in both the treatment and control groups (p < 0.05), whereas phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) levels showed no significant differences (p > 0.05). Comparison between the treatment and control groups also revealed no significant differences in N, P, and K levels (p > 0.05). In conclusion, BioTP has the potential to enhance macronutrient content in household organic compost; however, its effect has not yet reached an optimal level.Keywords: household organic waste; decomposition; bioinoculant; macronutrients

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by persistent hyperglycemia and associated with serious complications affecting multiple organs. The increasing global prevalence of diabetes has encouraged exploration of alternative natural therapies with antihyperglycemic potential. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of corn silk (Zea mays L.) extract in reducing blood glucose levels in diabetic mice. An experimental study was conducted using two groups of mice, each consisting of six animals. Group I received corn silk extract, while Group II received metformin. Blood glucose levels were measured after treatment, and differences between groups were analyzed using the Mann–Whitney test. Both corn silk extract and metformin reduced blood glucose levels in diabetic mice. Statistical analysis showed no significant difference in the mean reduction of blood glucose levels between the two groups (p = 0.083). Corn silk extract demonstrated a glucose-lowering effect comparable to metformin in diabetic mice, indicating its potential as a natural antihyperglycemic agent.Keywords: corn silk; diabetes mellitus; metformin

Abstract

Bronchogenic cysts are rare congenital malformations of the respiratory tract, typically presenting as cystic structures filled with fluid or air. Although generally detected in childhood, some cases remain asymptomatic and are discovered incidentally in adulthood. This case report aims to describe the clinical findings, diagnostic process, and management of a giant bronchogenic cyst detected incidentally in an adult patient. This study used a case report approach. A 56-year-old female patient underwent routine health screening in which a thoracic abnormality was detected. Diagnostic evaluation included chest radiography, thoracic computed tomography (CT) scan, and CT-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy with cytological examination. Chest radiography revealed a large mass in the paratracheal region without mediastinal shift. Further evaluation with thoracic CT scan confirmed a massive hypodense cystic lesion measuring 14.8 × 9.0 × 17.0 cm in the left hemithorax, extending to the left paracardial region and causing partial collapse of the left lung. CT-guided fine needle aspiration produced clear fluid, and cytological analysis showed no evidence of malignancy, supporting the diagnosis of a benign bronchogenic cyst. The patient subsequently underwent surgical resection. In conclusion, Giant bronchogenic cysts may remain asymptomatic and be detected incidentally. Imaging modalities combined with histopathological confirmation play a crucial role in establishing the diagnosis. Surgical resection is the definitive treatment to prevent potential complications and possible malignant transformation, even in asymptomatic cases.Keywords: bronchogenic cyst; congenital lung cyst; case report

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder with a rising global prevalence and is frequently accompanied by hypertension. Adequate glycemic control plays a crucial role in preventing elevated blood pressure among patients with T2DM. This study aimed to compare systolic and diastolic blood pressure between patients with controlled and uncontrolled glycemic status. An analytical cross-sectional design was employed involving 71 patients with T2DM from three primary healthcare centers. Data were collected through measurement of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels to determine glycemic control status, along with blood pressure measurements. The data were analyzed using the Independent Samples t-test in JASP software. The statistical analysis revealed a significant difference in systolic blood pressure (p = 0.020) and diastolic blood pressure (p = 0.039) between the controlled and uncontrolled groups. Patients with uncontrolled HbA1c levels exhibited higher systolic and diastolic blood pressure compared to those with controlled HbA1c levels. These findings highlight the importance of routine HbA1c monitoring in primary healthcare settings to prevent hypertension among patients with T2DM. In conclusion, glycemic control status may serve as a significant predictor of blood pressure levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Keywords: blood pressure; type 2 diabetes mellitus; glycated hemoglobin; hypertension; primary healthcare centers

Abstract

Diarrheal disease remains one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide, and in Indonesia Shigella flexneri constitutes a major etiological agent of endemic diarrhea. The clinical manifestations range from watery diarrhea to bacillary dysentery, or a combination of both, reflecting the bacterium’s biphasic pathogenic mechanisms. However, the specific processes by which S. flexneri induces watery diarrhea have not been fully elucidated. This study aimed to compare intestinal fluid secretion and histopathological alterations in the ileum and colon of mice, thereby contributing to a deeper understanding of Shigella pathogenesis. Four experimental groups were examined: negative control ileum, ileum exposed to S. flexneri, negative control colon, and colon exposed to S. flexneri. Using the ex vivo Mice Ligated Ileal Loop (MLIL) method, intestinal segments were incubated for 30 minutes, and intestinal weight was recorded at 5‑minute intervals. Data were analyzed using an unpaired t‑test, while histological findings served as supplementary qualitative evidence. The results demonstrated a greater increase in intestinal weight in the S. flexneri–exposed groups compared with controls, although the differences did not reach statistical significance. Histological evaluation was limited due to tissue autolysis, which hindered optimal interpretation. In conclusion, exposure to S. flexneri tended to enhance intestinal fluid secretion, particularly in the colon at the 30‑minute mark; however, this effect was not statistically significant under short‑term ex vivo conditions. Longer incubation periods and improved tissue preservation techniques are required to more accurately capture the full pathogenic effects of S. flexneri.Keywords: Mice Ligated Ileal Loop (MLIL); Shigella flexneri; intestinal fluid secretion; ex vivo
