Abstract

Support for mothers in caring for children experiencing anxiety during the preoperative phase is very important. Smartphones and family become sources of support for mothers in caring for children with anxiety during the preoperative phase. This study aims to analyze the influence of smartphone addiction and family support on maternal care ability in children experiencing anxiety in the preoperative phase. This research uses a cross-sectional design, where the population in this study is mothers with children experiencing anxiety in the preoperative phase. The sample in this study consisted of 132 mothers of children aged 3-6 years who were hospitalized and awaiting surgery. Participants were purposively selected from two hospitals in Mataram City, Indonesia. Data were collected using the Smartphone Addiction Scale-Short Version (SAS-SV), Family Support Scale (FSS), maternal care questionnaire, and the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (m-YPAS). Multiple linear regression analysis was performed in SPSS version 25.0 to assess the influence of the variables. The results of the analysis showed that both smartphone addiction and family support are significant predictors of maternal caregiving ability. Partially, smartphone addiction has a weak negative effect on maternal caregiving ability (β = -0.038, p = 0.047), whereas family support has a strong positive effect (β = 0.974, p < 0.001). This study indicates that interventions that involve and empower the family as a support system for mothers can improve maternal caregiving ability.

Abstract

Background: Early identification of developmental delay is critical for timely intervention, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. The Rashtriya Bal Swasthya Karyakram (RBSK) developmental screening tool is widely used in India, yet evidence on its validation is limited. Objective: To validate the RBSK developmental screening tool against the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) among children aged 0–3 years. Methods: A cross-sectional validation study was conducted among 262 children attending selected rural and urban primary health centers in Bengaluru. Children were screened using both RBSK and ASQ tools across multiple developmental domains. Sensitivity, specificity, predictive values, likelihood ratios, accuracy, and agreement (Kappa statistics) were calculated. Results: RBSK identified developmental delay in 13% of children compared to 10.7% by ASQ. The tool demonstrated high sensitivity (96.4%), specificity (97.0%), and accuracy (97.0%). Agreement between RBSK and ASQ was substantial across domains, particularly in gross and fine motor development, with comparatively lower agreement in the social domain. Conclusion: The RBSK developmental screening tool shows excellent validity and substantial agreement with ASQ, supporting its use as a reliable, feasible, and cost-effective screening instrument for early detection of developmental delay at the community level.

Abstract

Abstract Background: The global population is ageing rapidly, with individuals aged 60 and above projected to reach 2.1 billion by 2050 [1]. Diet represents a modifiable risk factor that may influence the rate of biological ageing and age-related disease incidence. Objectives: This systematic review and meta-analysis synthesizes evidence on the relationship between dietary patterns and markers of healthy ageing. Data Sources: We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library from inception to December 2024. Study Selection: Prospective cohort studies (≥2-year follow-up) and randomized controlled trials (RCTs, ≥6-month duration) examining associations between defined dietary patterns and ageing outcomes in adults (≥50 years) were included. Data Synthesis: Eighty-seven studies comprising 5.8 million participants were included. Random-effects meta-analyses were conducted. Mediterranean diet adherence was associated with reduced all-cause mortality (pooled HR: 0.79, 95% CI: 0.75-0.83, I²=56%) and cognitive decline (HR: 0.73, 95% CI: 0.67-0.79, I²=48%). Caloric restriction demonstrated benefits for ageing biomarkers including reduced oxidative stress and inflammation [4,12]. Plant-based dietary patterns showed consistent associations with reduced frailty risk (HR: 0.82, 95% CI: 0.76-0.88). Quality of evidence ranged from moderate to high. Conclusions: Multiple dietary patterns, particularly the Mediterranean diet and plant-based approaches, demonstrate consistent associations with markers of healthy ageing [3,7]. These findings support dietary modification as a strategy for promoting longevity and healthspan. Keywords: Ageing, longevity, diet, nutrition, Mediterranean diet, caloric restriction, meta-analysis

Abstract

Indoor air pollution, particularly from cigarette smoke, poses significant environmental health risks, including respiratory and cardiovascular effects. Sansevieria trifasciata has been reported as a natural air purifier capable of reducing volatile organic compounds and carbon monoxide (CO) in indoor environments. However, evidence regarding the effectiveness of plant-derived extracts combined with essential oils remains limited. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of Sansevieria trifasciata leaf extract, alone or in combination with essential oil, in reducing CO concentrations in enclosed indoor spaces exposed to cigarette smoke. Methods A quasi-experimental pre-test–post-test control group design was employed using four experimental rooms. Interventions included 60 mL S. trifasciata extract (PBL-21), 60 mL extract + 5 drops essential oil (PBL-20), 5 drops essential oil only (PBL-19), and control with no intervention (PBL-18). CO concentrations were measured before and after a 60-minute diffusion period using a portable CO analyzer. Data were analyzed using paired t-tests and ANOVA. Results: CO levels decreased by 37.5% in PBL-21, 68.8% in PBL-20, and 33.3% in PBL-19, while the control group showed minimal change. The combination of extract and essential oil demonstrated the greatest reduction, suggesting a synergistic effect. Conclusion: The combination of Sansevieria trifasciata extract and essential oil effectively reduced indoor CO levels from cigarette smoke in a quasi-experimental setting. These findings support the potential of plant- and essential oil-based interventions as eco-friendly, accessible strategies for improving indoor air quality. Further research with larger experimental designs and chemical profiling is recommended to validate and optimize these interventions.

Abstract

Sugarcane bagasse is a lignocellulosic waste that has significant potential as a cellulose source for the development of environmentally friendly bioplastics. This study aims to This study aimed to evaluate the potential of cellulose derived from sugarcane bagasse as a bioplastic material for drug capsule applications.. The research method includes the isolation of sugarcane bagasse into cellulose and the production of bioplastics. The bioplastics were prepared in two formulations, namely P1 (without cellulose) and P2 (with the addition of sugarcane bagasse cellulose), using chitosan as the polymer matrix and glycerol as a plasticizer. Characterization was conducted through morphological analysis, mechanical properties (tensile strength and elongation), density, thickness, water absorption, and biodegradability tests. Statistical analysis using an independent samples t-test revealed significant differences between formulations. The tensile strength of P2 (39.2 MPa) was significantly higher than P1 (21.5 MPa) (t = 13.7, p < 0.001), while elongation significantly decreased from 27.58% in P1 to 17.32% in P2 (t = 10.9, p < 0.001). Density and thickness also increased significantly in P2 (0.8444 g/cm³ and 0.276 mm) compared to P1 (0.5396 g/cm³ and 0.118 mm) (t = 10.5 and 18.3; p < 0.001), indicating a more compact film structure. In contrast, water absorption showed no significant difference between treatments (t = 0.10, p = 0.92), and both samples exhibited similar biodegradation times of approximately four days (t = 0.00, p = 1.00). These result demonstrate that cellulose incorporation improves mechanical strength and structural compactness without reducing biodegradability. Cellulose-based bioplastic derived from sugarcane bagasse has the potential to be developed as an alternative soft capsule material in environmentally friendly drug delivery systems, serving as a substitute for gelatin-based capsules in the pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract

Hospital environmental health is essential for infection prevention, patient safety, and occupational protection, particularly in maternity and children’s hospitals. This study assessed environmental health conditions at RSIA Aisyiyah Samarinda based on the environmental health requirements specified in Indonesian Minister of Health Regulation No. 7 of 2019. A cross-sectional observational assessment was conducted on April 23, 2026, using direct observation and a standardized environmental health inspection instrument. Eight domains were assessed: water health, air health, ready-to-eat food safety, buildings and facilities, vector and disease-carrying animal control, waste management, linen management, and environmental health management. The assessment produced a composite score of 8,420, indicating that the hospital met the applicable environmental health requirements. Water health, air health, ready-to-eat food safety, vector control, waste management, and environmental health management were classified as Very Good, while linen management was classified as Good. A disability-accessible toilet was unavailable, and inconsistent use of complete personal protective equipment was observed among waste-handling personnel. Overall, the hospital met the applicable environmental health requirements, but targeted corrective actions are needed to address identified infrastructure and occupational-safety gaps.

Abstract

Leukaemia in children is a disease that not only affects the child's physical condition but also causes anxiety among parents. The trends and topics related to health promotion concerning parental anxiety in children with leukaemia have not been extensively mapped. Mapping is crucial for identifying the evolution of research focus over time and for discovering research gaps that are still rarely explored. This study employs a bibliometric approach using data from the Scopus database. The search was conducted using Boolean operators (parent* OR maternal) AND (anxiety OR distress) AND (leukaemia OR childhood cancer) AND (health promotion OR psychoeducation OR intervention). Of the 225 articles found, 59 met the inclusion criteria (in English, open access, and from journals or proceedings), while 166 articles were excluded for not meeting the inclusion criteria (not open access, not in English, or from books). Data were analysed using VOSviewer to generate network visualisations, overlays, and density maps. Six main clusters were identified, including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), digital-based interventions (video conferencing, social media), mindfulness, play therapy, social support, and family empowerment. The trend shows a shift from conventional approaches (2016–2018) towards technology-based interventions and CBT (2018–2024). The United States has the largest contribution, followed by China, Australia, and Malaysia. Research on health promotion to prevent parental anxiety in children with leukaemia shows significant development towards digital-based approaches. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and technology-based interventions are the most dominant topics. Future research should test long-term effectiveness and develop culturally adaptive interventions.

Abstract

Poor sleep has become an important public health issue among university students, given its association with reduced cognitive functions and academic productivity. Caffeine intake in students has been identified as one behavior associated with poor sleep. In this study, we assessed the relationship between pre-sleep caffeine behaviors and sleep disturbances in students enrolled at Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (UPI). The study involved a cross-sectional survey using a questionnaire administered to 125 students from UPI containing 25 questions about their pre-sleep caffeine consumption behaviors, sleep habits, perception of their sleep disruptions, and functioning levels. Quantitative data were analyzed using the correlation approach, while qualitative data supplemented the results of the analysis. There was a significant positive correlation between caffeine disturbance of pre-sleep relaxation with pre-sleep sleep disruptions (rs = .553; p < .001), sleep difficulty frequency (rs = .266; p = .003), and sleep onset latency (rs = .191; p = .033). Furthermore, there was a significant positive correlation between sleep difficulties and lack of concentration/efficiency (rs = .435; p < .001). The findings indicated that caffeine intake during the evenings was associated with sleep onset latency.

Abstract

The availability of PAMSIMAS facilities does not automatically suppress water-based diseases without the adoption of adequate health behaviors. Analyzing the relationship between health education and the three pillars of health behavior (environmental cleanliness, drinking water treatment, and solid waste management) among PAMSIMAS users in Sidoarjo Regency. This cross-sectional study involved 120 heads of families using PAMSIMAS from six villages selected by stratified random sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and observations, then analyzed using Spearman's Rho correlation test (α=0.05). The majority of respondents have never participated in non-formal health education (78.3%). Health education was significantly positively related to environmental cleanliness (Rs=0.2810; p=0.002) and drinking water treatment (Rs=0.2285; p=0.012). On the other hand, no significant relationship was found with solid waste management (Rs=−0.08458; p=0.358), where 74.2% of respondents still burn waste independently. Non-formal health education is weakly to moderately correlated with environmental cleanliness and water treatment, whose behavior is more driven by internal factors of formal education. Failure of waste management is caused by the absence of physical supporting facilities (enabling factors). Health interventions require the provision of sanitation infrastructure in addition to education.

Abstract

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has become a significant public health issue in Pakistan due to its poor regulations, lack of infection prevention and control measures, and empirical prescription practices. The objectives of this study were to evaluate antimicrobial use (AMU), prescribing practices, WHO AWaRe categorization, and factors related to AMU in hospitalized patients. A cross-sectional study was conducted based on WHO Point Prevalence Survey technique in April 2025 in 10 public and private tertiary care hospitals in four different regions of Pakistan. The data of 969 inpatients were statistically evaluated using SPSS software version 29. The ethical clearance was taken from National Institutes of Health, Pakistan. In general, antimicrobials were prescribed to 94% of patients in both public (94%) and private (95%) hospitals. The AMU was found 100% in intensive care unit, neonates, maternity, and pediatric patients. Third generation cephalosporins were mainly used in all indications, and Watch antibiotics were observed in 70% cases, while Access antibiotics were used in 5-8%. Admission specialty (p=0.037), peripheral catheterization (p<0.001), and urinary catheterization (p=0.005) were significantly associated with AMU. It is evident that there are significant stewardship problems, such as over-prescribing, over-use of Watch antibiotics, and poor documentation. It is important to improve stewardship practices, implement prescribing guidelines, and follow WHO AWaRe recommendations.
