Abstract

Limau kuit (Citrus hystrix DC) is a fruit that has a distinctive sour taste. The sourness in limau kuit extract can be used to replace glacial acetic acid, which is one of the compounds found in reagents used to aid in the diagnosis of certain diseases. One of the reagents that contains acetic acid is Turk’s solution, which functions to stain leukocyte cells and lyse other cells except leukocytes, thus enabling leukocyte count analysis. The objective of this study was to count leukocytes using a modified Turk’s solution made from limau kuit extract and compare the results with those obtained using commercial Turk’s solution. The study design was a randomized post-test only controlled group design, using instruments such as a microscope, micropipette, test tubes, and an improved Neubauer chamber. The research was conducted in the pathology laboratory of Universitas Borneo Lestari in October 2024. Leukocyte count examinations were performed in 16 repetitions, followed by statistical data analysis using the Independent Sample T-Test. The results showed that the leukocyte counts obtained using the modified Turk’s solution from limau kuit extract did not show a significant difference. The difference in mean leukocyte count was 40.63 cells/mm³, with a median difference of 100 cells/mm³, a maximum difference of 150 cells/mm³, and a minimum difference of 200 cells/mm³. Microscopically, erythrocytes were completely lysed and leukocytes were clearly visible; however, bacterial contamination was still observed in the field of view. In conclusion, the modification of Turk’s reagent using limau kuit extract showed no significant difference between the control group (commercial Turk’s reagent) and the treatment group.

Abstract

Dental caries is a disease that damages hard tooth tissue due to bacterial activity in the oral cavity which breaks down carbohydrates into acids, resulting in demineralization of hard tooth tissue which causes cavities. There are many factors that cause the process of dental caries, one of which is poor dental and oral hygiene because dental and oral hygiene is directly related to the occurrence of dental caries. The aim of the research was to determine the relationship between dental and oral hygiene and dental caries in students at SMPN 2 Bukittinggi. The research method is quantitative with an analytical research design and a cross sectional approach. The research population of all SMPN 2 Bukittinggi students was 920 students and the research sample was 240 students from class VII and VIII using a sampling technique, namely simple random sampling. The research results obtained from the Chi-square test show a p-value of 0.048, so the p-value is smaller than the alpha value (0.05). The conclusion of this study is that there is a significant relationship between dental and oral hygiene and dental caries in students. It is recommended for students at SMPN 2 Bukittinggi to maintain oral hygiene by brushing their teeth twice a day, reducing consumption of sticky sweet foods and carrying out routine dental and oral examinations once every six months to avoid dental caries and other dental and oral diseases.

Abstract

The availability of an adequate number of qualified nutrition experts is a supporting factor for the success of nutrition programs and health transformation. The research aims to analyze the relationship between job suitability of nutrition professionals, education level, participation in training, and the competence of nutrition experts in relation to the nutritional status (prevalence of stunting) in West Sumatra, Indonesia. The study was conducted using a cross-sectional design, with a sample size of 698 nutrition professionals working in 16 districts/cities in West Sumatra. Data were collected through a questionnaire in Google Form format. This study revealed that 35.6% of nutrition professionals did not possess an active registration certificate. Around 43.9% had only completed a three-year diploma program, and 13.7% were not working in accordance with their profession. Approximately 65% of nutrition experts had not received training related to their authority, and 76.3% did not possess relevant competency certification to support their performance. There was a significant relationship between the number of nutrition professionals working in accordance with their profession, participation in training, and competency certification with the occurrence of stunting (p<0.05). The conclusion is that the higher the number of nutrition professionals working in accordance with their profession, trained, and competent, the lower the prevalence of stunting in the area. Policy measures and efforts are needed to meet the needs of nutrition experts in terms of quantity and quality in order to strengthen nutrition programs and improve the level of health in West Sumatra.

Abstract

This study aims to understand patient experiences regarding nurses’ caring behavior at Lende Moripa Hospital, Waikabubak, within the context of Sumbanese culture. Using an ethnographic approach, the research was conducted from December 2024 to May 2025 through unstructured interviews and observations involving nine participants (seven patients and two nurses). The results indicate that although medical services were generally adequate, challenges remained in the areas of communication and nurses' attitudes. Patients reported that unfriendly interactions, a harsh tone of voice, and a lack of empathy negatively affected their comfort and healing process. On the other hand, nurses acknowledged that dialectal differences and high workloads contributed to difficulties in patient interactions. The analysis found that communication misaligned with patients’ emotional conditions was a key source of dissatisfaction. In conclusion, therapeutic communication and caring behaviors have not been fully internalized in nursing practice. It is recommended that culturally sensitive communication skills training and an empathetic approach in nurse–patient interactions be implemented.

Abstract

Iron deficiency anemia remains a prevalent health issue among adolescent girls, primarily due to increased iron demands during growth and menstruation. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of katuk leaf pudding (Sauropus androgynus) in improving hemoglobin levels in female adolescents at SMPN 02 Lirung, Talaud Islands Regency. A quasi-experimental design with a Non-Equivalent Control Group was employed, involving 64 participants divided into two groups: an intervention group receiving katuk leaf pudding and a control group receiving pudding without katuk leaves, each consisting of 32 respondents. The intervention was administered daily for seven days, with hemoglobin levels measured before and after treatment using a digital hemoglobinometer. Statistical analysis revealed a significant increase in mean hemoglobin levels in the intervention group, from 10.93 g/dL to 11.94 g/dL, whereas the control group exhibited no meaningful change (from 12.57 g/dL to 12.56 g/dL). A paired sample t-test produced a p-value of 0.001, indicating a statistically significant difference. The study concludes that katuk leaf pudding effectively enhances hemoglobin levels among adolescent girls. It is recommended that natural food-based nutritional interventions like katuk leaf products be adopted more broadly and implemented sustainably to prevent anemia in vulnerable populations.

Abstract

Malnutrition and stunting remain major public health issues in Indonesia, particularly among school-aged children. The Free Nutritious Meal (MBG) program launched by President Prabowo Subianto in 2025 aims to address these problems while improving educational quality. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the MBG program on students' nutritional status and academic performance. A qualitative content analysis was conducted through a systematic literature review. Out of 4,930 articles identified, only four met the inclusion criteria. The findings indicate that the MBG program reduced the prevalence of stunting by 7.8% and anemia by 5.4% among elementary students. Additionally, student attendance increased by 12%, and learning concentration improved by 15%. However, several challenges remain, including limited food storage infrastructure, uneven distribution, and a lack of technical regulations. The program has shown a positive impact on student health and education. In conclusion, MBG holds significant potential as an effective national program if supported by strong governance. It is recommended that the government strengthen cross-sectoral coordination, develop standardized menus based on local needs, and ensure sustainable logistics and implementation oversight.

Abstract

Stunting is a condition of growth failure in children under five caused by chronic malnutrition, resulting in height that is not in accordance with their age. This condition reflects prolonged inadequate nutrient intake, making adequate nutrition from an early age highly important. The family’s economic status plays a major role in determining the quality of food consumption. Improving the quality and quantity of food consumed by toddlers can have a positive impact on their growth and development. This study aimed to analyze the influence of demographic factors, family economic status, dietary patterns, types of food, and food presentation methods on the incidence of stunting among children aged 12–59 months. The research employed an analytical correlational design with a cross-sectional approach, involving parents of children aged 24–59 months. Data were collected using questionnaires covering information on economic status and feeding practices, and analyzed using a simple logistic regression test. The results showed that stunting is influenced by various interrelated factors, particularly demographic conditions, family economic status, and the patterns and quality of food intake. In conclusion, improvements in these factors can reduce stunting incidence. It is recommended to enhance nutrition education, expand access to healthcare services, provide family support, and offer nutritious and appealing food for toddlers.
