Abstract

Unintended pregnancy and inappropriate contraceptive use remain significant public health challenges among women of reproductive age. Limited access to accurate contraceptive information and inadequate counseling may hinder informed decision‑making. With the rapid advancement of digital health technologies, e‑module–based contraceptive education has emerged as a promising strategy to strengthen women’s knowledge and support informed contraceptive choices. This systematic review aimed to examine the effectiveness of e‑module–based contraceptive education in supporting informed contraceptive decision‑making among women of reproductive age. A systematic review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines. Searches were performed in PubMed, ScienceDirect, ProQuest, and Google Scholar. Eligible studies included original quantitative or mixed‑method research involving women of reproductive age, using e‑module or digital contraceptive education interventions, and reporting outcomes related to decision‑making, knowledge, attitudes, or contraceptive choice. Data were synthesized narratively. Across the included studies, e‑module–based contraceptive education consistently demonstrated positive effects on multiple dimensions of informed decision‑making. Most interventions significantly improved participants’ contraceptive knowledge, including understanding of method effectiveness, side effects, and correct use. Several studies reported enhanced attitudes toward contraceptive planning, greater confidence in evaluating available options, and increased readiness to engage in shared decision‑making with healthcare providers. Digital modules also contributed to reductions in decisional conflict, particularly by clarifying personal values and aligning contraceptive choices with individual preferences and reproductive goals. In some studies, women expressed higher satisfaction with digital learning formats due to their flexibility, privacy, and ease of access. Overall, digital contraceptive education showed comparable or superior effectiveness to conventional counseling, especially in improving comprehension and supporting autonomous decision‑making. In conclusion, E‑module–based contraceptive education effectively strengthens informed contraceptive decision‑making among women of reproductive age. Integrating digital modules into nursing practice and family planning services may enhance patient‑centered care. Further high‑quality studies are needed to assess long‑term outcomes.Keywords: contraception; decision making; digital health; reproductive health; women

Abstract

Asphyxia is a condition in which a newborn fails to breathe spontaneously and regularly. According to the Ministry of Health in 2017, neonatal mortality caused by asphyxia reached 27.8%. One of the causes of neonatal asphyxia is anemia gravidarum. This process begins with decreased hemoglobin (Hb) levels, impaired oxygen transport, and eventually leads to fetal hypoxia. This literature review was conducted in March 2026. Literature searches were performed using Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Garuda, with a publication range from 2016 to 2026. Article selection was carried out following PRISMA guidelines. Five studies showed a significant association between neonatal asphyxia and anemia gravidarum, while one study showed no significant association. Therefore, healthcare professionals are expected to provide education regarding nutritional intake for pregnant women as a preventive measure against anemia and to emphasize the importance of antenatal care.Keywords: anemia gravidarum; asphyxia; indonesia

Abstract

Malnutrition is a condition in which an individual has nutrient intake below adequate levels, leading to impaired growth and development. Efforts to prevent malnutrition in toddlers can be implemented through supplementary feeding based on local food ingredients, including purple sweet potato. This study aimed to determine the effect of purple sweet potato–based supplementary feeding on the nutritional status of underweight toddlers in the Gunungsitoli City area. A quasi-experimental design with pretest–posttest and a control group was employed. The study population consisted of all malnourished toddlers, and a total sample of 20 children was selected using purposive sampling, comprising 10 in the intervention group and 10 in the control group. Before receiving purple sweet potato–based supplementary feeding, most toddlers in the intervention group were categorized as underweight (70%) and of normal height (70%), whereas in the control group, the majority were underweight (60%) and stunted (50%). After the intervention, most toddlers in the intervention group achieved normal weight (90%) and normal height (70%), with a significance value of 0.002 (p<0.05). In contrast, the control group remained predominantly underweight (80%) and stunted (50%), with a significance value of 0.08 (p>0.05). These findings indicate that purple sweet potato–based supplementary feeding positively affects the nutritional status of underweight toddlers, as reflected in improvements in both weight and height.Keywords: purple sweet potato; supplementary feeding; toddler undernutrition status

Abstract

Patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis are at high risk of complications, including intradialytic hypotension, vascular access infection, anemia instability, and cardiovascular events. These complications significantly contribute to morbidity, hospitalization, and mortality. Preventive and structured management strategies are essential to improve clinical outcomes. This study aimed to identify and evaluate evidence on preventive interventions for major complications in maintenance hemodialysis patients. This systematic review was conducted following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. A comprehensive literature search was performed in PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar for studies published between 2023 and 2025. Eligible studies included randomized controlled trials and observational studies involving adult maintenance hemodialysis patients and evaluating preventive interventions targeting major dialysis-related complications. Study selection, data extraction, and quality assessment were conducted independently by two reviewers using predefined eligibility criteria. Ethical approval was not required because the review analyzed data from previously published studies. After screening 1,086 records and assessing 81 full-text articles, 12 studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in the qualitative synthesis. The included studies demonstrated that protocol-based and preventive interventions significantly reduced complication rates. Individualized ultrafiltration adjustment, cool dialysate application, and biofeedback systems reduced intradialytic hypotension. Vascular access care bundles lowered infection rates. Algorithm-based anemia management improved hemoglobin stability, while structured fluid management and cardiovascular screening reduced hospitalization and adverse cardiovascular events. Structured, nursing-driven, and preventive management strategies represent effective approaches to reducing major complications in maintenance hemodialysis patients. The integration of standardized monitoring protocols, evidence-based preventive interventions, and multidisciplinary care models should be prioritized in clinical practice to enhance patient safety, reduce hospitalization, and improve long-term patient outcomes.Keywords: hemodialysis; complications; intradialytic hypotension; anemia; infection prevention

Abstract

The increasing intensity of social media use among adolescents in the digital era has also increased the risk of exposure to cyberbullying, which has fatal impacts on mental health, including the emergence of suicide risk. Adolescents who experience cyberbullying tend to have a higher likelihood of suicidal ideation compared to adolescents who are not exposed to cyberbullying. Globally, suicide has become one of the leading causes of death among individuals aged 15–19 years, with more than 700,000 deaths annually. This study aimed to systematically analyze experiences of cyberbullying on social media and suicide risk among adolescents. This study employed a systematic literature review approach. The literature search was conducted through the ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Google Scholar databases for publications from 2016–2026. Articles identified through the search process were screened based on predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Eligible articles were analyzed using narrative synthesis. Based on 14 included articles, the forms of cyberbullying experiences among adolescents included harsh or hurtful online comments, verbal humiliation on social media, and the spread of digital rumors. These experiences may lead to psychological distress such as depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, feelings of being a burden, and social isolation among adolescents. These conditions contribute to an increased risk of suicide, ranging from suicidal ideation to suicide attempts. In conclusion, the most prevalent experiences of cyberbullying on social media are harassment and denigration which can trigger internal psychological processes in adolescents such as thwarted belongingness and perceived burdensomeness. These psychosocial impacts can manifest as spectrum of suicide risk. Experiences of cyberbullying on social media is a complex mental health problem among adolescents and require comprehensive prevention strategies through digital literacy, psychosocial support, family and school involvement, and the promotion of adolescent mental health.Keywords: adolescent; cyberbullying; mental health; social media; suicide risk

Abstract

The Free Nutritious Meals Program is a governmental initiative designed to improve the nutritional status of school‑age children by providing daily nutritious meals. The effectiveness of this program depends not only on food availability but also on students’ knowledge and attitudes toward healthy eating behaviors. This study aims to analyze the influence of knowledge and attitudes on consumption behavior related to the Free Nutritious Meals Program among students at State Senior High School 3 in Bima City. A cross‑sectional design was employed involving a population of all students at the school, with a sample of 160 students selected through stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using simple and multiple linear regression. A total of 124 students demonstrated insufficient knowledge, 102 students exhibited positive attitudes, and 119 students showed good consumption behavior related to the Free Nutritious Meals Program. Knowledge significantly influenced consumption behavior (p < 0.001), and attitude also had a significant effect (p < 0.001). When analyzed together, knowledge and attitude jointly influenced consumption behavior (p < 0.001). Attitude had a stronger effect (B = 1.103) compared to knowledge (B = 0.258). Both variables explained 27.0% of the variation in consumption behavior, while the remaining 73.0% was attributed to other factors not examined in this study. In conclusion, knowledge and attitude significantly influence students’ consumption behavior related to the Free Nutritious Meals Program at State Senior High School 3 in Bima City.Keywords: free nutritious meals; knowledge; attitudes; consumption behavior; high school students

Abstract

ABSTRACT Nurses are among the healthcare professionals who interact most frequently with patients in improving healthcare service quality, particularly in implementing the Safewards model. Therefore, optimization through clinical supervision is needed. This study aimed to analyze the effect of clinical supervision training for head nurses on staff nurses’ perceived knowledge and compliance regarding the Safewards model at Hospital X and Y. This study used a quasi-experimental design with pre-post tests in intervention and control groups. The study was conducted from January 10 to February 19, 2026. Clinical supervision training was provided to 12 head nurses, while clinical supervision implementation involved 60 staff nurses. Standardized questionnaires were used to measure perceived knowledge and compliance. The results showed that most respondents were Diploma III nursing graduates with more than 15 years of work experience and categorized as PK III. There was an increase in head nurses’ knowledge regarding clinical supervision after training, as well as improvements in staff nurses’ perceived knowledge and compliance regarding the Safewards model after clinical supervision. Significant differences were found in perceived knowledge (p-value = 0.009) and compliance (p-value = 0.005) before and after the intervention. Clinical supervision training for head nurses significantly influenced perceived knowledge and compliance (p-value = 0.001). The training contributed 14.4% to perceived knowledge and 23.6% to perceived compliance. Hospitals are expected to implement structured and sustainable clinical supervision training programs and integrate training-based learning mechanisms into Safewards implementation SOPs.Keywords: safewards model; clinical supervision; perceived knowledge; nurse compliance; head nurse training

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a global health problem that requires effective blood glucose control strategies, one of which is through the inhibition of the α-amylase enzyme to prevent postprandial hyperglycemia. This study aimed to analyze the effect of varying ethanol concentrations (50%, 70%, 96%) as a solvent on the extraction efficiency of bioactive compounds from basil leaves and their α-amylase enzyme inhibitory activity. Extraction was carried out using the maceration method, and the obtained extracts were analyzed for total phenolic content (TPC) using the Folin-Ciocalteu method, total flavonoid content (TFC) with AlCl₃ reagent, and α-amylase inhibitory activity using the iodine method. The results showed that ethanol concentration significantly influenced all tested parameters. The 70% ethanol extract yielded the highest TPC (108.441 ± 0.495 mg GAE/g), the highest TFC (70.535 ± 0.393 mg QE/g), and the strongest α-amylase inhibitory activity (IC₅₀ 49.255 µg/mL). A strong positive correlation was observed between the increase in phenolic and flavonoid compound levels and the enhancement of enzyme inhibitory activity. These results indicate that 70% ethanol is the optimal solvent for extracting antidiabetic compounds from basil leaves, which function by inhibiting key carbohydrate-digesting enzymes. The resulting basil leaf extract has the potential to be developed as an adjuvant therapeutic agent for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
