Abstract

Background: Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that frequently causes chronic pain, decreased mobility, and reduced quality of life. Non-pharmacological management through exercise therapy is recommended to reduce pain and improve joint function. Purpose: To determine the effect of a combination of Straight Leg Raising Exercise and Resisted Active Movement on pain intensity among osteoarthritis patients. Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group approach. A total of 60 respondents were selected using purposive sampling and divided into intervention and control groups, each consisting of 30 respondents. The intervention group received a combination of  Straight Leg Raising Exercise and Resisted Active Movement, while the control group received Range of Motion  exercises. Pain intensity was measured using the Numeric Rating  Scale . Data were analyzed using Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests. Results: The average pain score in the intervention group decreased from 4.57 to 2.83, while in the control group it decreased from 4.43 to 3.23. Wilcoxon test showed significant differences before and after intervention in both groups  (p=0.000). Mann-Whitney test showed a significant difference in pain reduction between groups  (p=0.001). The median reduction in pain score was 2.00 in the intervention group and 1.00 in the control group. Conclusion: The combination of Straight Leg Raising Exercise and Resisted Active Movement significantly reduced pain intensity among osteoarthritis patients and was more effective than  Range of Motion exercises.

Abstract

Background: The increasing elderly population is associated with an increased risk of injury due to declining physical function and hazards within the home environment. Home safety is influenced by both environmental and individual factors, including independence level and nutritional status. The Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Risk Control (HIRARC) method can be used to identify and assess home environmental hazards systematically Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the relationship between independence level and nutritional status with home environmental hazard levels among older adults based on the HIRARC method. Methods: A cross-sectional analytical study was conducted among 30 alderly selected through total sampling. Independence level was measured using the Barthel Index, nutritional status was assessed using Body Mass Index (BMI), and home environmental hazards were evaluated using the HIRARC method. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman rank correlation tests with a significance level of 0.05. Results: Most respondents were female (56.7%) and aged 60–69 years (66.7%). Nearly half had normal nutritional status (46.7%) and were categorized as independent (46.7%). Home hazard assessment indicated that 53.3% of homes were at moderate risk. The most common hazards were slippery bathroom floors (60.0%), inadequate lighting (46.7%), and the absence of handrails (40.0%). Significant relationships were found between independence level and home environmental hazards (p=0.004), between nutritional status and home environmental hazards (p=0.028) Conclusion: Independence level and nutritional status are significantly associated with home environmental hazard levels among elderly. Improving home safety, maintaining functional independence, and promoting optimal nutritional status are important strategies to prevent injuries and support healthy aging

Abstract

Background: Chronic wounds remain a major healthcare challenge in developing countries due to limited access to advanced wound care technologies and the high cost of treatment. These limitations have encouraged the use of natural agents as affordable alternatives for chronic wound management. Natural agents such as honey, Aloe vera, propolis, virgin coconut oil, Centella asiatica, and herbal extracts have demonstrated antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and tissue-regenerative properties. Purpose: This scoping review aimed to map trends in the clinical use of natural agents for chronic wound care in developing countries from 2010 to 2024, including the types of agents used, therapeutic outcomes, safety, cost-effectiveness, and emerging clinical applications. Methods: This review followed the Arksey and O'Malley methodological framework and the PRISMA-ScR guidelines. A systematic search of PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and Google Scholar identified studies published between January 2010 and October 2024. Eligible studies were screened, selected, and synthesized. Results: Of 2,876 records identified, 15 studies met the inclusion criteria. The findings showed a gradual evolution in the clinical use of natural agents. Honey and Aloe vera predominated in earlier studies, while more recent research explored propolis, virgin coconut oil, olive oil–honey combinations, Centella asiatica, and plant-based hydrogels. Most studies focused on diabetic foot ulcers. Overall, natural agents accelerated wound healing, enhanced granulation tissue formation, reduced wound size and infection, and provided cost-effective alternatives to conventional wound care. Conclusion: Natural agents have evolved from conventional single-agent therapies to diverse bioactive formulations integrated with modern wound care. Current evidence supports their effectiveness, affordability, and potential role in improving chronic wound management, particularly in developing countries and other resource-limited healthcare settings.

Abstract

Background: Stress is one of the most common psychological problems among older adults and contributes to various health disorders, such as hypertension, sleep disturbances, cognitive decline, and an increased risk of mortality. Chronic stress in older adults is also known to be closely associated with a decline in psychological well-being and quality of life. In addition, stress can exacerbate the degenerative diseases commonly experienced by older adults. Research shows that stress contributes to the onset of chronic diseases such as hypertension in older adults, making it a complex and multidimensional health issue Purpose: To analyze the effectiveness of Tai Chi exercises on stress levels in older adults Methods: A pre-experimental, single-group pretest-posttest design was conducted on 28 older adults using the PSS-10. The Tai Chi intervention consisted of 40-minute sessions, three times per week for 21 days. Analysis was performed using a paired t-test based on the study results Results: The mean stress score decreased from 15.96 ± 5.71 to 12.46 ± 3.47. The paired t-test revealed a statistically significant difference (t = 4.274; p < 0.000). Conclusion: Tai Chi is effective in reducing stress levels in the elderly and should be considered as a community nursing intervention.
