Abstract

Stroke is a silent killer. Preventing the recurrence of strokes is therefore essential. This study investigated i) the level of health literacy to prevent the recurrence of stroke, ii) factors associated with not having a stroke, and iii) Associations between health literacy and recurrence of stroke. This cross-sectional analytical research was conducted with 240 samples. Multiple logistic regression was performed to describe the factors and associations recurrence stroke. The results showed that the majority of the samples had a problematic level of health literacy to prevent recurrence stroke (52.08%), and 35.84% had recurrence stroke. Factor: Not drinking alcohol was 6.11 times more than drinking (adj. OR=6.11, 95% CI: 4.88 to 10.04). There was no recurrence of stroke with statistical significance at the 0.05 level. High understanding skill 4.43 times (adj. OR=4.43, 95% CI=3.44 to 5.58), and high apply skill 3.67 times (adj. OR=3.67, 95% CI=2.44 to 8.18) than low and moderate levels. Statistically significant at the 0.05 level. Per findings, health literacy should be actively promoted to prevent stroke recurrence.

Abstract

Laparotomy surgery patients are at risk for complication including surgical site infections (SSI) which are associated with high morbidity and mortality. Malnutrition has been identified as a risk factor for the occurrence of SSI but preoperative malnutrition identification remains low. The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) has published a new, practical, and easily applicable definition of malnutrition. This study aims to evaluate whether malnutrition according to GLIM criteria is a predictor of SSI in elective laparotomy patients. This prospective cohort study involved 123 subjects aged 18-65 years undergoing elective laparotomy, without diabetes history. Their malnutrition status was assessed using GLIM criteria with bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to evaluate muscle mass. A total 62 subjects were categorized into the malnutrition group and the remaining into nonmalnutrition group and then monitored for the presence of SSI up to 10 days postoperatively. SSI occurred in 13.8% of the subjects. The analysis showed a strong association between malnutrition and SSI in elective post laparotomy (RR 4.6; 95%CI 1.4-15.1; p=0.005). Malnutrition according to GLIM criteria is a significant predictor of SSI in elective post laparotomy patients.

Abstract

Vibration therapy is known to help with muscle fatigue from daily activities. Research is ongoing, but early signs suggest it might be a promising tool for health promotion via faster recovery after streneous exercise. This randomized controlled trial examined the effects of low-frequency vibration therapy (LFVT) on recovery of lower back muscles after induced fatigue. Recovery-related parameters, including pressure pain threshold (PPT), visual analog scales (VAS) of perceived fatigue, sit-and-reach (SAR), and heart rate variability (HRV) were measured before the session of induced fatigue, immediately after receiving either the LFVT or the rest, and 24-hour follow-up period. Seventy participants were allocated to either LFVT group (received a 10-minute session of LFVT) or control group (rested under the same environment). Results showed that participants in LFVT group significantly improved VAS and PPT after intervention. The between-group comparison revealed that the improvement in the average heartbeat (AHB), VAS, SAR, and PPT were greater in LFVT group than in control group immediately after the treatment. Moreover, improvements in SAR and PPT were also greater in the LFVT group than in the control at 24-hour follow-up. The findings revealed that LFVT can be used as a recovery-health care method for football athletes.

Abstract

This integrative research review sought to explore the concepts of caring and coping in the context of the disaster-displacement phenomenon. It intended to describe and characterize the process of human flourishing amidst crisis through the caring and coping experiences of people living temporarily in emergency shelters after having been forcefully displaced following a devastating disaster event. This review adopted the 11-step method introduced by Tawfik and his colleagues in 2019. Three databases were utilized which included CINAHL, PubMed, and ProQuest. Papers needed to be published in English, with full-text availability for their inclusion. A total of 16 references met the inclusion criteria for the final review. To construct a logical and coherent integration of the important points, four categories of themes were developed: i) disaster impacts on daily life patterns and cultural lifeways; ii) caring patterns during disaster displacement; iii) coping patterns during disaster displacement; and iv) cultural learnings for disaster-based practitioners. It was noted that despite the challenges of crises, disaster victims often recover naturally and return to their previous levels of functioning. Resilient caring-coping mechanisms enable people to flourish in adversity, with culture and traditions playing a vital role in shaping their adjustment and adaptation to current circumstances.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) and its associated complications present a major health problem for the Thai people, including Buddhist monks. This study aimed to identify the influence of behavioural and genetic variables on the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus in middle-aged monks of Thailand. The study analyzed data from the health data centre of the Department of Public Health, Thailand, focusing on middle-aged monks in 76 provinces across 12 regions. The study recruited 6,408 Thai monks who met inclusion and exclusion criteria between October 2015-November 2019. Multivariable analysis was performed using a generalized linear mixed model, with adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals reported at a significance level of 0.05. Our study found that among the middle-aged monks of Thailand, 7.12% (95% CI: 6.49-7.78) had diabetes mellitus out of a total of 6,408. The results of our multivariable analysis showed that the following factors were associated with diabetes mellitus in monks of Thailand: respondents’ body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2 (AOR=4.26, 95% CI: 3.08-5.90, p-value <0.001), respondents with a family history of DM (AOR=3.37, 95% CI: 2.52-4.81, p-value<0.001), and respondent’s age ranges of 55-59 (AOR=2.87, 95% CI: 2.26-3.84, p-value<0.001), respectively. Diabetes millatus is significantly associated with the respondents who were obese, aged, and had a family history of DM. Therefore, a regular DM screening program as well as a timely health monitoring system for monks will enhance the diabetes control program in reducing the DM burden in Thailand.

Abstract

Environmental factors such as sanitation and hygiene, drinking water sources, quality of drinking water, and ownership of latrines are indirect factors causing stunting. This study aims to analyze the distribution of stunting and environmental sanitation factors that cause stunting in Dairi District, North Sumatra, Indonesia. The case-control design was carried out with 172 toddlers. The distribution pattern of stunting and the association of patient characteristics and environmental risk factors was carried out using the Geographic Information System. Data on healthy clean-living behavior was collected using a questionnaire, and microbiological laboratory tests measured water quality. The spatial analysis uses an average nearest-neighbor overlay. The association of characteristics and risk factors with the incidence of stunting was analyzed using chi-square and logistic regression. The average nearest neighbor analysis shows that the nearest neighbor index is 0.19 ( 0.05) are unrelated to stunting. The pattern of distribution of cases tended to be in clusters, and no relationship was found between population density and the incidence of stunting. The findings of this study provide a new understanding that health promotion to prevent stunting does not only focus on fulfilling nutrition but also on healthy clean-living behavior and water quality.

Abstract

Noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) heralds a transformative era in prenatal care, revolutionizing fetal health assessment. The recent adoption of aneuploidy screening signifies a significant advancement in prenatal genetic care in India. The current study aimed to assess the cost-effectiveness of ddPCR-based NIPT for detecting chromosome aneuploidies, comparing it with the next-generation sequencing (NGS) platform. This study adopts a laboratory-based observational approach to investigate the cost implications of NIPT for trisomies 13, 18, and 21 using ddPCR and NGS technologies. A meticulously designed cost analysis methodology was employed, adhering to established standards. The yearly capital and operational costs of NIPT were calculated with precision, focusing on the specific methods associated with ddPCR and NGS. The calculated annual capital and operating costs for NIPT using the ddPCR were $16,411 and $246,540 while those using the NGS platform were $91,440 and $250,560, respectively. The total cost of NIPT using ddPCR for 2,400 tests was $262,951, with an estimated cost per test of $110. In contrast, the total cost of NIPT using the NGS platform for 600 tests was $342,000, resulting in an estimated cost per test of $570. The ddPCR is five times more cost-effective. Moreover, it exhibits a fourfold reduction in time expenditure, attributable to streamlined procedures and does not require a complex bioinformatics analysis compared to the NGS. Moreover, this preliminary outcome on cost analysis for NIPT using ddPCR, as opposed to the NGS platform, can be extended to the health technology assessment (HTA) perspective for prenatal screening programs.

Abstract

Lead is one of the four most dangerous heavy metal pollutants, toxic to human health, and linked to metabolic syndrome (MetS). This research aimed to analyze the relationship between respondent characteristics, blood lead level (BLL), nutrition intake, and physical activity to MetS and its components in women of reproductive age at Pemali District Mining Area, Bangka Belitung Regency. This research was conducted with a case-control approach involving 70 women of reproductive age (35 cases and 35 controls). Data was analyzed using chi-square and Mann-Witney tests for bivariate analysis and regression test logistics for multivariate analysis. Based on bivariate analysis, there is a significant relationship between body mass index (BMI) (p=0.000), salt intake (p=0.017), and seasoning intake (p=0.017) to MetS; meanwhile, BLL is not associated with MetS (p=0.473) but are associated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC) (p=0.019). Multivariate test results show that BMI (p=0.000; OR=7.995) and salt intake (p=0.030; OR=6.812) are significant risk factors for MetS. Women of reproductive age must maintain BMI within normal levels and reduce daily salt intake to prevent the occurrence of MetS. BLL must be controlled to prevent decreased HDLC levels in women of reproductive age.

Abstract

Anxiety in women increases with the start of labor and has a negative impact on mothers and newborns. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of listening to murottal Al-Quran on increasing oxygen saturation and reducing pain in mothers in the active phase of labor. This research was quantitative research with a quasi-experimental design and a preexperimental design one-group pretest-posttest. This study was conducted at the Kendari City Hospital. The sample was determined as a total population, considering that the number of mothers during the first active phase was only 30. The data analysis technique in this study went through two calculation stages: the data normality test by Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Paired Sample Statistics, and all calculations using SPSS. The results of the statistical tests using the Wilcoxon test yielded a p-value of 0.000. Statistically, it can be concluded that there are differences in oxygen saturation values before and after the administration of murottal intervention. It was also found that 27 respondents experienced an increase in oxygen saturation after receiving murottal intervention. In conclusion, murottal intervention increased oxygen saturation.
