Abstract

Preeclampsia remains a major contributor to maternal morbidity and mortality, particularly during the postpartum period. Effective blood pressure control and optimal breastfeeding practices may play important roles in maternal recovery, yet evidence on their combined effects remains limited. This study aimed to examine the association between breastfeeding practices and blood pressure control with maternal outcomes among postpartum women with preeclampsia. A prospective cohort study was conducted among 120 postpartum women diagnosed with preeclampsia in selected hospitals in Kediri Regency, Indonesia, between July and December 2024. Participants were selected using simple random sampling from a population of 185 eligible women. Data collection was performed at baseline (?48 hours postpartum) and follow-up visits at weeks 1, 2, 4, and 6 postpartum. Breastfeeding practices were assessed using a structured questionnaire, while blood pressure was measured using standardized procedures. Maternal outcomes included recovery status, persistence of hypertension, complications, and hospital readmission. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted using SPSS. Blood pressure decreased significantly over the postpartum follow-up period. Women with good breastfeeding practices at 6 weeks postpartum had significantly higher odds of favorable maternal outcomes compared to those with suboptimal practices (AOR = 2.41; 95% CI: 1.12–5.18; p = 0.024). Controlled blood pressure was the strongest predictor of favorable outcomes (AOR = 3.76; 95% CI: 1.65–8.54; p = 0.002). Severity of preeclampsia was also significantly associated with maternal outcomes (AOR = 2.89; 95% CI: 1.31–6.39; p = 0.008). Breastfeeding practices and effective blood pressure control are important factors associated with improved maternal outcomes among postpartum women with preeclampsia. Strengthening integrated postpartum care, including continuous monitoring and breastfeeding support, is essential to optimize maternal recovery and reduce complications

Abstract

Volunteer resilience during flood disasters denotes an individual's capacity to endure, adapt, and psychologically recover from the stressors encountered during emergency responses. This quality is modulated by internal and external determinants, including personal coping mechanisms and external buffering systems. This study examined the relationships between self-efficacy, empathy, social support, and resilience among flood response volunteers in Indonesia. Employing a quantitative, cross-sectional design, the study sampled 70 volunteers from Bengkulu and East Java provinces via purposive sampling technique that met inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were collected online (via Zoom) using a structured questionnaire. Resilience was measured using the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), the self-efficacy via the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSE), the empathy through the Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI), and social support using the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). Construct validity was verified via Pearson Product Moment Correlation, and reliability was confirmed using Cronbach's alpha. Statistical evaluation involved univariate and bivariate chi-square test (X²). The findings revealed that self-efficacy, empathy, and social support correlated significantly with the volunteer’s resilience. Specifically, social support demonstrated the strongest association (p = 0.000; OR = 8.457; 95% CI (2.732-26.180)), followed by self-efficacy (p = 0.001; OR = 7.410; 95% CI (2.396-22.917)), and empathy (p = 0.040; OR = 3.319; 95% CI (1.175-9.370)). Strengthening volunteer’s resilience during flood emergencies requires a comprehensive framework. This approach must simultaneously enhance individual psychological capacities and provide sustainable socio-organizational support structures to optimize ongoing disaster relief efforts across Indonesia.

Abstract

Anemia in pregnant women remains a serious health problem in Indonesia, posing risks to both mothers and fetuses. Anemia prevention measures, such as taking iron tablets, maintaining a balanced diet, preventing worm infections, and attending regular antenatal care (ANC), are often suboptimal due to a lack of adherence by pregnant women. Structured and intensive interventions are needed to strengthen patient self-care behaviors through the implementation of behavioral regulation strategies, particularly self-regulation mechanisms, to support health behavior change. Self-regulation is a psychological process that enables individuals to control, direct, and evaluate their behavior to achieve specific health goals. This study aimed to examine the relationship between self-regulation and anemia prevention behavior in pregnant women at a Public Health Center in 2025. This study employed a quantitative correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. The population consisted of 130 pregnant women, with a sample of 98 women selected using accidental sampling. The research instruments were questionnaires on self-regulation and anemia prevention behavior. All questionnaire items were valid (r 0.444), and the instrument demonstrated good reliability (Cronbach's alpha = 0.87). Data analysis was conducted using the Kendall Tau test. As many as 70.4% of respondents had a high self-regulation and 61.2% had high anemia prevention behavior. Bivariate analysis yielded a p-value of 0.0001 and a correlation coefficient ? = 0.683, indicating a significant positive relationship: the stronger the self-regulation, the better the anemia prevention behavior of pregnant women. In conclusion, there is a positive relationship between self-regulation and anemia prevention behavior among pregnant women.

Abstract

Older adults with chronic illnesses often experience a decline in quality of life in physical, psychological, social, and spiritual aspects. Gardening is a non-pharmacological intervention that is easily accessible, holistic, and has the potential to improve the well-being of older adults. In addition to providing light physical exercise, gardening can also stimulate motor skills, provide a sense of calm, and strengthen social interactions. However, the meaning that older adults ascribe to gardening activities still requires further exploration. This study aimed to explain the meaning of gardening activities from the perspective of older adults with chronic illnesses. This research employed a qualitative approach using a phenomenological method. Participants were selected through purposive sampling, specifically older adults with chronic illnesses who actively engage in gardening activities at the Kenari 3 Community Health Post in Gunungronggo Village, Malang Regency. Data were collected through face-to-face, semi-structured interviews using an interview guide developed based on the study objectives. Data collection was halted after the 20th participant, as data saturation had been reached. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis with the assistance of NVivo, including coding, code comparison, diagram development, and theme generation. Data validity was ensured through time and participant triangulation. Nine themes emerged: tranquility while gardening, social interaction, gardening as work, positive feelings, family support, light exercise, enjoyment of nature, improved health, and gardening challenges. Gardening holds significant meaning for older adults with chronic illnesses. Beyond serving as a form of work, this activity provides a sense of calm, happiness, fulfillment of social needs, and helped relieve physical complaints. Gardening has the potential to be used as a non-pharmacological intervention that supports improved quality of life for older adults.
