Abstract

Background: Hypertension is a non-communicable disease known as the silent killer. The majority of deaths from stroke and heart attacks worldwide (more than 1000 cases/hour) are caused by hypertension. This study aims to determine the increase in knowledge and attitudes about hypertension after being given an intervention in the form of digital consultation, information, and education (KIE).Method: The study employed a One-group pretest-posttest design with 36 purposively sampled respondents. It took place in Semarang from November 2023 to January 2024. Digital KIE was the intervention, delivered through WhatsApp flyers over 3 days, facilitated by a healthcare professional. Knowledge and attitudes about hypertension were measured, and data analysis utilized the Wilcoxon test.Result: The average age of respondents was 43.2 (±13.6) years, with a majority being female (75%), having a secondary education (58.3%), employed (77.8%), income > regional minimum wage (63.9%), having a family history of hypertension (63.9%), and not suffering from hypertension (75%). Findings from this study revealed an increase in respondents with good knowledge from 69.4% to 94.4% and respondents with a positive attitude from 61.1% to 80.6%. There was a significant difference in knowledge (Δ = 1; p = 0.000) and respondents' attitudes (Δ = 1.5; p = 0.020) after being provided with hypertension intervention using digital KIE. Digital KIE significantly improves knowledge and attitudes about hypertension. The implementation of digital KIE on a larger scale is expected to be a means of preventing hypertension.

Abstract

Background: In East Java, the prevalence of stunting in toddlers exceeds the national average of 32.8%, while in Sampang Regency it reaches 47.9%. Stunting poses a significant challenge by hindering economic growth, exacerbating poverty, and widening socio-economic disparities. The research aims to analyze the relationship between family characteristics and the incidence of stunting in toddlers in Sampang, Madura.Method: This quantitative study employed a cross-sectional design in Sampang Regency.  A total of 384 toddlers and their mothers participated as the research sample. The research variables included parental characteristics, anthropometric measurements of maternal height, and maternal knowledge status. Statistical analysis was conducted using the Pearson correlation inference test.Result: The test results showed that family social status had no significant influence on stunting among toddlers. However, maternal height significantly influenced the incidence of stunting, with a P-value of 0.030.  These findings highlight the importance of addressing maternal height as a determinant of toddler stunting. Thus, intervention needs to be given to adolescent girls to prevent toddler stunting.  Such interventions could include health education programs focused on improving adolescent nutritional status to increase growth. Efforts should prioritize adolescent girls before menarche to optimize height development and reduce the future stunting risk of their offspring.

Abstract

Background: Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by brittle bone prone to fracture. The risk increases significantly with age, particularly among women. An effective approach for understanding and preventing the progression of osteoporosis is by examining bone mineral density (BMD), with diet playing an essential role. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the association between nutrient intake and BMD in female students at the University of Lampung.Method: This analytical observational study adopted a cross-sectional design. A total of 150 female students at the University of Lampung, were selected as samples using a multistage random sampling technique. The study variables were BMD and nutrient intake, specifically calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, vitamin C, vitamin D, and protein. BMD was assessed based on examination using an ultrasound bone densitometer, while nutrient intake was measured through 2x24h food recall. In the process, data analysis was conducted using the chi-square test.Result: The results showed that female students had BMD in the osteopenia category of 52.7% and osteoporosis of 10%. Calcium and phosphorus intake were associated with BMD in Lampung University female students (p<0.01; p=0.11), while intake of magnesium, vitamin C, vitamin D, and protein did not correlate (p=0.751; p=0.382; p =0.41; p=0.694). Therefore, meeting calcium and phosphorus needs from an early age is essential to prevent osteoporosis.

Abstract

Background: The behavior of Handwashing with Soap (HWWS) is a method of hand hygiene maintenance that protects oneself and those around from diseases. However, the habit of washing hands with soap might not be a routine practice among adolescent students in maintaining daily personal hygiene. The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors related to HWWS behavior among the students of Islamic boarding school based on the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). Method: This research was an observational study with a cross-sectional design. The sample consists of 104 students, aged 10 to 21 years old (53 male and 51 female) selected purposively. The data analysis conducted to assess the strength of relationships between four elements in the TPB and HWWS behavior as well using the contingency coefficient and Spearman correlation. Result: The results of the study show that behavioral intention was strongly associated with HWWS behavior (C = 0.609, p < 0.001). Meanwhile, the four TPB elements had moderate level of associations (C = 0.484 – 0.594, p < 0.001). To conclude, efforts are needed to improve HWWS facilities and strengthen HWWS behavior through programs tailored to the students' characteristics and needs.

Abstract

Background: In Asia, more than 54.7% of postpartum mothers experience sleep deprivation, ranging from 50.9%. Massage can increase the levels of endorphins in the body and stimulate the central nervous system (CNS). This study aimed to determine the effect of Pointer Finger Friction (PFF) Massage on β-Endorphin Levels and Sleep Quality in Postpartum Mothers in Semarang City.Method: This study was quasi-experimental with a pre-posttest control group design. The population consisted of postpartum mothers in the Semarang City Health Center area, and samples were obtained by simple random sampling. The number of samples were 36 postpartum mothers who were divided into 2 groups. The treatment in the intervention group with PFF was carried out five times, starting on the first postpartum day. Venous blood was collected before and after treatment to measure endorphin levels and sleep quality. Data analysis was performed using the Mann–Whitney U test.Result: The results of the study showed most of the respondents were 23 years old and had a high school education (82.9%). The average level of β-endorphins after the treatment group was 135 mg/ml higher than that of the control group (38 pg/ml), and the quality of sleep after the treatment group decreased by 3.5 compared to the control group, with a score of 0.9. There was a relationship between the levels of β-endorphins and sleep quality between the PFF and control groups. To increase the levels of β-endorphins and the quality of sleep of postpartum mothers, we can promote and educate people about the use of the PFF massage method.

Abstract

Background: Women can experience complications and mortality in the postpartum period. Women are also burdened with the long-term consequences of complications after delivery. Access to high-quality care during the postpartum period is essential to improving maternal outcomes, but the number of postpartum visits has not met the standard. This study aims to analyze the determinants of postpartum visit attendance in Surakarta.Method: A retrospective case-control study was conducted using secondary data. The database used in this study was derived from maternal and child health books and data from community health centers. All mothers who had completed the postpartum period (≥42 days postpartum) with the inclusion criteria of having a maternal and child health book and living in Surakarta were involved in this study. Data were analyzed descriptively and statistically. The relationship between the two variables was analyzed using the chi-square test. Multivariate analysis was performed using the logistic regression test. Statistical significance was set at P < 0.05.Result: A total of 179 postpartum mothers' data were successfully collected. Most of them had incomplete postpartum visit data. (75.4%). The number of children and type of delivery were related to the status of the mother's postpartum visit (p ≤ 0.05). Other variables, namely age, occupation, insurance ownership, complications during pregnancy, childbirth or postpartum, education, and place of delivery, were unrelated to the completeness of postpartum visits (p> 0.05). The results of multivariate analysis showed that the type of delivery simultaneously affected the mother's postpartum visit. Mothers who experienced a CS delivery compared to normal delivery had a 0.170 times greater chance of having a complete postpartum visit.
