Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic impacts global health, and no specific drug has proven effective in curing SARS-CoV-2 infection. This study aimed to analyze the survival characteristics of COVID-19 patients in Koja Hospital. This research method is analytically observational with a cross-sectional design. The study population was 1080, and the research sample was 284 patients. The sampling used a purposive sampling method with a retrospective approach from the medical records of confirmed COVID-19 inpatients from May to October 2020. The analysis uses SPSS software version 26. Categorical variables were analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test. Kaplan Meier, Log Rank, and Cox Regression were used for the probability of survival analysis and mortality risk ratio in COVID-19 patients. The case fatality rate (CFR) of 284 COVID-19 patients was 20.4%. The mean age of the patients was 49 years (IQR 37–57). The most common comorbidity was hypertension, 34%. The average probability of survival of COVID-19 patients was above 60%. In addition to gender, predictors including age, comorbidities, type of intensive care, and use of antivirals had significant differences and affected the chances of survival of COVID-19 patients. Patients given oseltamivir monotherapy had the highest survival rate of about 80% after undergoing treatment for about 38 days (p equal 0.000). The mortality risk ratio of COVID-19 patients with comorbid diabetes mellitus was 8.7 times higher than that of those without comorbidities (95% CI 1,02–75.82, p less than 0.048). Patients with intensive care had an 11.43 times increased mortality risk ratio compared to usual care (95% CI 6,34–20,62, p less than 0.000). The conclusion of this study is intensive care and a history of diabetes mellitus are associated with the risk of death. There needs to be an increase in COVID-19 control measures, especially in populations prone to comorbid diabetes with severe and critical degrees.

Abstract

The main nutritional problem in toddlers that is still commonly found in many countries around the world is stunting. Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem caused by long-term malnutrition. Infectious diseases and malnutrition can cause stunting. The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between the history of children and the incidence of stunting in the people of the Coastal Village of Kamarian. This research is an analytic survey research with a cross sectional design. This research was carried out on June 1 -31 2022. The sample in this study was 113 toddlers aged 2-5 years using total sampling. This study uses the Chi-Square test. The results showed that there were 22.9% (27 children) who were stunted. There is a relationship between birth weight (ρ=0.000), exclusive breastfeeding (ρ=0.013), infectious diseases (ρ=0.000), complementary feeding (ρ=0.002) and stunting. Low birth weight, exclusive breastfeeding, infectious diseases, and early complementary feeding (MP-ASI) can affect the incidence of stunting in children.

Abstract

The increase in cases of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) has increased by more than one million cases worldwide every day. One of the vulnerable groups is that adolescents are the age group that is most at high risk of contracting sexually transmitted infections (STIs) because they are in a transition period characterized by high curiosity. So, at this age, it is always challenging to try new things without being accompanied by a good understanding and attitude about the actions taken. Therefore, health education from an early age is necessary in equipping adolescents with knowledge that impacts changing attitudes regarding Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs). This study aims to analyze the influence of video media on adolescent attitudes about STIs at SMA Negeri 2 Takalar. This quantitative research method uses the quasi-experimental approach with a one-group pre-post test design. The population in this study was the student council of SMA Negeri 2 Takalar, which amounted to 22 students. The sampling technique in this study used a saturated sample; namely, the entire population became a sample in the study. Data collection techniques used were questionnaires distributed to respondents before and after treatment using video media. The data obtained were then analyzed using a paired sample t-test. The results showed that the value of the difference in the average value before and after health education using video was 9. 14 with a p-value = 0. 000 with a significance level of 0. 05. So it can be concluded that there is a significant influence of the use of video media on the attitudes of students with sexually transmitted infections. Therefore, the use of video media in conducting health education for students is highly recommended to create changes in adolescent attitudes regarding Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs).

Abstract

The ability of pregnant women to detect early high-risk pregnancies is still below average which is one of the causes of complications that can endanger the well-being of the mother and fetus. Family involvement and other social sources of support in the perinatal period are associated with the detection and reduction of pregnancy risk factors. Approach to families in early dedetermination of pregnancy risk can be done with Family Center Maternity Care (FCMC). FCMC is care designed to meet the informational, social, emotional, comfort, and support needs of normal pregnant women during pregnancy and childbirth. The purpose of this study was to determine the determinants of early detection factors for pregnant women with family-based risk with FCMC. This type of research is quantitative and non-experimental with an analytical observational design through a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study was all pregnant women who experienced risk factors in the Kedungwuni I, Kedungwuni II, Bojong Health Center Area as many as 103 pregnant women. The sampling technique used is the Total Population. The results of this study show that there is a positive and statistically significant relationship of knowledge with the implementation of early detection. Pregnant women who have good knowledge have a likelihood of carrying out early detection of pregnancy risk well by 3,193 times higher than respondents with less knowledge (OR=3,193; CI 95%=1.123-9.078; p=0.029). It is hoped that health workers, especially midwives, can involve their families, especially for early detection of the risk of pregnant women so that pregnant women get optimal health services.

Abstract

Stroke patients with dysphagia require proper initial screening so as not to cause severe complications. More optimal efforts are needed to improve swallowing ability to avoid complications. Swallowing exercises combined with Benson Relaxation and Aromatherapy are expected to provide better results in increasing the swallowing ability score of stroke patients with dysphagia. This study aims to determine the effect of the combination of Swallowing Exercise with Benson Relaxation and Aromatherapy on the swallowing ability of stroke patients. This type of research is a quasi-experimental pre and post-test. Researchers intervened in two groups of respondents. One group intervened with a combination of swallowing exercises with Benson relaxation, and one group combined swallowing exercises with aromatherapy. The sampling technique was consecutive sampling. The number of samples was 44 people: 20 people in Intervention Group I and 25 in Intervention Group II. Statistical analysis used a dependent t-test (paired t-test) to test the difference in the average score of swallowing ability before and after the intervention and an independent t-test to test the difference in the average score after the intervention in intervention groups I and II. This research showed a significant difference in the average score of swallowing ability before and after the intervention in the intervention group I and II, and there is no difference in the average score of swallowing ability after the intervention in the intervention group I and II. Swallowing exercise combined with Benson relaxation and aromatherapy can improve the swallowing ability score of dysphagia patients due to stroke.

Abstract

One of the activity programs that students at UMY University Residence (UNIRES) must complete within the first year is memorizing Al-Qur'an juz 30. Physical fitness has been linked to good memorization abilities and improving overall cognitive function. More evidence is needed to see how fitness level influences the ability to memorize Al-Qur'an, especially among students. This research aimed to determine the effect of providing an aerobic fitness program on the ability of UNIRES students to memorize Al-Qur'an. The quasi-experimental pre-post test research method without a control group involving 29 participants was conducted; it consisted of 15 male and 14 female residents of UNIRES, who were taken using convenience sampling. The intervention was an aerobic exercise fitness program guided by an instructor, which is carried out every two days for 30 minutes for 14 days and can be followed independently via the YouTube link provided. The fitness test is carried out using the 6-minute walk test method, given before and after students are given aerobic treatment and determined by measuring VO2 max. Participants were asked to memorize Al-Qur'an Surah An Nisaa verse 23 and measured the duration of memorization. This verse was chosen because of the trickiness and complexity level of the words; there are several similar words/sentences repeated (words ending in تُكُمْ) in the verse. The average VO2 max before and after intervention was 40.97 ± 9.87 and 42.68 ± 5.00, while memorization ability was 2,496.21 ± 1,654.53 seconds and 1,162.62 ± 726.33 seconds. There was no significant difference in VO2max before and after training with p 0.508, greater than 0.05. Conclusion: No significant correlation exists between memorization time and VO2max, either before or after training. The interventions need to be extended to get more optimal results, and the number of participants needs to be increased, besides the involvement of a control group.

Abstract

Prediabetes is a condition of impaired blood glucose metabolism. However, it does not yet meet the criteria for diabetes mellitus, characterized by impaired fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels and the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT). Chronic glucose intolerance can increase the workload of the kidney glomerulus in the filtration process and the tubules in the reabsorption process. The research aims to assess the Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) in prediabetic subjects in Kendari. This type of analytical observational research with a case-control design. The total sample was 90 samples consisting of 45 non-diabetic samples as the control group and 45 prediabetic samples as the case group. Characteristic data is presented as a frequency distribution and test data for differences between the control group and cases using an independent t-test with statistical test results said to be significant if the p-value is less than 0.05. The research results showed that the frequency distribution of subjects in the control group and cases based on gender was dominated by women, with the most extensive age range being 36-55 years. The FBG variable in the control group had a mean of 94±5.31 mg/dL, and in the case group, 110±8.09 mg/dL. The OGTT value in the control group was 118±12.78 mg/dL, and the case group was 139±23.90 mg/dL. The results of the calculation of the GFR showed a mean of 98.63±14.28 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the control group and 50.10±16.34 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the case group, different significant (p equal 0.000). There was a significant difference between GFR in the control group and the prediabetes case group. The results of the GFR assessment in the prediabetes group showed a mild decrease in renal function.

Abstract

Acne is one of the skin damages caused by acne-causing bacteria. Flavonoids, saponins, and tannins in taro tubers can potentially have activity against acne-causing bacteria. This study aims to determine the formulation of extract transparent solid soap preparation that meets the characteristics and assess the activity of soap preparation as anti-acne against acne-causing bacteria. Taro tubers were extracted by maceration method. The extract was formulated as transparent solid soap preparations with variations in extract concentration, namely F0 0%, F1 2%, F2 4%, and F3 8%. The soap was evaluated for characteristics including organoleptic test, pH, moisture content, free fatty acids and alkali, mineral oil test, and foam stability test. Antibacterial activity testing of transparent soap extracts was carried out against acne-causing bacteria. The extraction results obtained an extract yield of 10.86%, the three extract formulas have transparent solid soap characteristics that meet the requirements. Soap preparation formula 1 has an inhibition zone of 21.66 ± 0.31 mm against P. acnes bacteria, 19.11±0.53 mm against S. epidermidis, 21.74±0.34 mm against S. aureus. Soap preparation formula 2 has an inhibition zone of 18.53±0.26 mm against P. acnes bacteria, 18.71±0.49 mm against S. epidermidis, 20.16±0.34 mm against S.aureus and soap preparation formula 3 has an inhibition zone of 19.03±0.68 mm against P. acnes bacteria, 19.93±0.86 mm against S. epidermidis, 22.75±0.59 mm against S.aureus. In conclusion, formula 2 with 2% extract concentration has the best soap characteristics and has the most optimal inhibition zone.
