Abstract

The increasing volume of household waste in rural areas requires sustainable management based on the principles of Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle (3R). This study aimed to analyze behavioral and structural factors associated with the adoption of 3R practices among housewives in Laban Village, Pesisir Selatan Regency, Indonesia. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 86 randomly selected housewives using a structured questionnaire assessing knowledge, attitudes, infrastructure availability, government support, income level, and the presence of sanitation workers. Data were analyzed using chi-square tests and binary logistic regression. Bivariate analysis showed that knowledge (p = 0.024), attitude (p = 0.046), infrastructure availability (p = 0.007), and government support (p = 0.010) were significantly associated with 3R adoption. Income level and the presence of sanitation workers were not significantly associated. In multivariate analysis, infrastructure availability is dominant factor to 3R adoption in Laban Village (OR = 5,79 dan 95% CI = 1,38–24,21). These findings indicate that improving awareness alone is insufficient without adequate infrastructure and institutional support to promote sustainable household waste management.

Abstract

Hypertension is a major cause of death and includes non-communicable diseases. Hypertension requires a long treatment time so that the cost of antihypertensive drugs is high. This study aims to determine the average cost of antihypertensive therapy drugs, and other cost components that cause antihypertensive costs to increase as well as the factors that affect the cost of antihypertensive drugs. The research method used is a non-experimental approach with a cross-sectional quantitative design. Data were collected using the non-probability sampling method using purposive sampling on outpatient hypertensive patients participating in JKN in 2021. Data were analyzed descriptively and statistically tested using SPSS version 20 with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. The average cost of antihypertensive drugs and the total cost for outpatients at Tugurejo Hospital, Central Java Province in 2021 is Rp. 37.183 and Rp. 25.394. The average cost of hypertension medication that must be disbursed each month for a single drug, a combination of 2 drugs, a combination of 3 drugs, and a combination of 4 drugs is Rp. 12.306, Rp. 35.002, Rp. 61.372, and Rp. 117.693. The average total cost of components other than antihypertensive drugs is Rp. 216.211. Statistical analysis results showed that gender did not affect drug costs or total costs. Age significantly influenced drug costs but not total costs. The number of comorbidities significantly influenced drug costs and total costs. Drug costs accounted for the largest proportion, at 54.35%. Therefore, the cost of hypertension medication was influenced by age and the number of comorbidities. Meanwhile, the total cost was influenced by the number of comorbidities

Abstract

Stunting remains a public health problem in Indonesia, with a prevalence of 19.8% in 2024. Although local foods have the potential to support stunting prevention, the knowledge of Posyandu cadres and mothers of under-five children regarding the utilization of protein- and vitamin A-rich local foods, such as catfish flour and pumpkin flour, is still limited. This study aimed to determine the effect of nutrition education on the knowledge of Posyandu cadres and mothers of under-five children regarding the utilization of catfish flour and pumpkin flour for stunting prevention. This study employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The population consisted of Posyandu cadres and mothers of under-five children in the working area of Andalas Public Health Center. A total of 64 participants were selected using the Federer formula and a multistage random sampling technique. Data were analyzed using the paired t-test. The instrument used was a pretest and posttest questionnaire to measure the knowledge levels of Posyandu cadres and mothers of under-five children. The results showed that nutrition education supported by audiovisual media and hands-on practice improved the knowledge of Posyandu cadres and mothers of under-five children regarding the utilization of local foods for stunting prevention, as indicated by a p-value ≤ 0.05, although not all groups demonstrated significant changes. This intervention may serve as a supportive strategy to accelerate stunting reduction through Posyandu activities.

Abstract

Cervical cancer remains a major public health problem among women in Indonesia, while participation in cervical cancer screening programs remains low despite the availability of screening services. Low screening uptake is influenced by various barriers related to psychological, informational, and healthcare access factors. This study aimed to identify barriers affecting women’s participation in cervical cancer screening in Pabuaran Village, West Java. A quantitative study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among 113 women aged 18 years and older selected through convenience sampling. Data were collected using the Cervical Cancer Awareness Measure (Cervical CAM) questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics with SPSS. The findings revealed that the most common barriers were fear of the Pap smear procedure (44.2%), lack of information about cervical cancer screening (13.3%), and unspecified personal or cultural reasons (14.2%). In contrast, logistical barriers such as distance to healthcare facilities and long waiting times were reported less frequently. The study concludes that psychological barriers and limited information are the primary factors contributing to low participation in cervical cancer screening. Therefore, targeted health education, culturally sensitive counseling, and community-based interventions are needed to improve women’s awareness and increase cervical cancer screening coverage.

Abstract

Differences in environmental conditions, access to health services, and oral health maintenance behavior are thought to influence dental caries among school-age children, particularly in the first permanent molars. This study aimed to analyze the differences in first permanent molar caries and DMF-T index among sixth-grade elementary school students in urban and rural areas.This study was an analytic study with a cross sectional approach conducted at SDN 06 Aur Tajungkang Tengah Sawah, Bukittinggi City, and SDN 22 Koto Tangah, Agam Regency. The sample consisted of 50 students selected using the total sampling technique. Data were collected through examinations of first permanent molar caries depth and DMF-T index. Data analysis was performed using the Mann Whitney U Test. The results showed that superficial caries were more common among students in urban areas, while profunda caries were more common among students in rural areas. The mean DMF-T index in urban students was higher (3.97) than in rural students (1.86). Statistical analysis showed significant differences in superficial caries (p=0.001), profunda caries (p=0.023), and total DMF-T index (p=0.040), while media caries, missing component, and filling component showed no significant differences. In conclusion, there were differences in the pattern of first permanent molar caries and DMF-T index between elementary school students in urban and rural areas. Promotive and preventive oral health efforts tailored to regional characteristics are needed through oral health education and regular dental examinations at schools.

Abstract

Guidance and counseling programs in senior high schools need to transform from administrative-oriented services into data-based, developmental, and digitally evaluated services. This study aims to analyze the transformation of the guidance and counseling program based on need assessment and digital evaluation at SMAN 1 Padang. This study used a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through interviews with a school counselor and document review of the guidance and counseling program. The results showed that the guidance and counseling program at SMAN 1 Padang has been developed based on students’ needs through several assessment instruments, including AUM, AUM PTSDL, questionnaires, sociometry, observation, interviews, and academic data. The program includes basic services, responsive services, individual planning, and system support. A notable innovation is the use of digital evaluation through online rubrics and student feedback links. However, several challenges remain, including a high student-counselor ratio, limited classroom guidance hours, inadequate counseling room facilities, and uneven understanding of counseling functions among subject teachers. This study concludes that need assessment and digital evaluation are important strategies to strengthen the quality, accountability, and relevance of modern school counseling services

Abstract

Hallucinations in patients with schizophrenia can disrupt psychosocial functioning and increase the risk of maladaptive behaviors, highlighting the need for effective and contextually appropriate non-pharmacological interventions. This study aimed to evaluate the implementation of dangdut music therapy in reducing the level of hallucinations among patients with schizophrenia. A case study design was employed using a psychiatric nursing care approach involving one patient at Atma Husada Mahakam Psychiatric Hospital, Samarinda. The intervention consisted of dangdut music therapy administered for approximately 15–30 minutes per session, once daily for five consecutive days. Hallucination levels were measured using the Auditory Hallucinations Rating Scale (AHRS) before and after the intervention. The results demonstrated a reduction in the AHRS score from 28 (moderate–severe category) to 14 (mild–moderate category), accompanied by a decrease in hallucination frequency from 5–6 episodes per day to 1–2 episodes per day and a reduction in emotional response intensity from a score of 4 to 2. These findings suggest that dangdut music therapy has the potential to help reduce hallucination severity in patients with schizophrenia. In conclusion, dangdut music therapy may serve as a beneficial complementary intervention for managing hallucinations in schizophrenia within the context of a case study. However, further studies with larger sample sizes and more rigorous research designs are needed to confirm its effectiveness on a broader scale.

Abstract

Background: Ankle sprain is a sports injury with a high recurrence rate. Impaired proprioception, neuromuscular control, and postural stability are important factors that increase the risk of recurrent injury. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of balance training and strengthening exercises in preventing recurrent ankle sprains. Methods: This systematic review followed the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Articles were retrieved from PubMed, ScienceDirect, and SagePub, with inclusion criteria consisting of English-language articles relevant to the topic and published between 2014 and 2024. Results: A total of 8 studies involving 267 participants met the inclusion criteria. The sample sizes of the included studies ranged from 18 to 54 participants. Most studies showed that balance training improved dynamic balance, proprioception, postural stability, and ankle function. Strengthening exercises also provided benefits in improving muscle strength; however, their effects on dynamic balance were more limited and less consistent. Conclusion: Balance training demonstrated more consistent effectiveness than strengthening exercises in preventing recurrent ankle sprains. Strengthening exercises may still be used as part of rehabilitation, particularly when combined with balance training.
