Abstract

Zinc deficiency can cause growth and health problems, whereas protein from soy sources contributes to essential nutritional intake. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of soy plus zinc (SPZ) supplementation on growth and kidney health in Wistar rats. This study used a randomized controlled trial design with 24 rats divided into five treatment groups, including a control group. SPZ supplementation was administered daily for 14 days with varying zinc doses (0.020 mg and 0.035 mg per gram of body weight) and palatability enhancement using vanilla flavoring. Data obtained through measurements of initial and final body weights and kidney weights were analyzed using ANOVA to determine significant differences between groups. The results showed that SPZ supplementation positively contributed to growth, as evidenced by a significant increase in the final weight of rats compared to their initial weight (p < 0.05). Histological analysis of the kidneys indicated no visible structural damage, and the average increase in kidney weight was approximately 26.5%. The combination of soy and zinc in SPZ was shown to have a synergistic effect that benefits the development and kidney health of rats, demonstrating its potential application in the context of animal nutrition.

Abstract

The 2022 Indonesian Nutritional Status Survey (SSGI) reported a stunting prevalence of 20.8% in Central Java. Although various studies have examined its risk factors, few have applied a spatial perspective. This study aims to analyze regional variations in stunting risk factors and their contribution to rising stunting rates. This is a quantitative explanatory study employing the geographically weighted regression (GWR) method. Secondary data were obtained from the Central Java Health Profile and Badan Pusat Statistik Indonesia (BPS) in 2023, using a total sampling of 35 districts/cities. The GWR results indicated that chronic energy deficiency (CED; β = 0.0014, p = 0.068) and exclusive breastfeeding (β = 0.0791, p = 0.087) were marginally positively associated with stunting. Low birth weight (LBW) showed a significant positive association (β = 0.1009, p = 0.041), while access to improved sanitation had a strong negative effect (β = -0.1882, p = 0.004). Iron supplementation (≥90 tablets) was not significant (β = -0.0629, p = 0.134), whereas access to improved drinking water was positively and significantly correlated with stunting (β = 0.3778, p = 0.028). These findings contradict existing theories, particularly where higher rates of exclusive breastfeeding and access to clean water are unexpectedly associated with increased stunting in several regions. This suggests the need for further in-depth investigation in those areas to better understand the underlying factors.

Abstract

Occupational well-being and workforce sustainability in post-pandemic healthcare systems are at risk due to increasing emotional, ethical, and workload-related stressors that nurses encounter. Workplace spirituality has also been suggested as a protective factor, but empirical research remains fragmented and insufficiently synthesized. This integrative review aimed to synthesize the recent evidence on the role of workplace spirituality in the occupational well-being of nurses. A systematic search of Scopus, MEDLINE, and Cochrane databases identified English-language quantitative studies published between 2015 and 2025. Nineteen studies met the inclusion criteria and were synthesized using Whittemore and Knafl integrative review framework, with reporting relying on PRISMA 2020. There were five themes that included i) spirituality and burnout reduction, ii) organizational commitment and retention, iii) work engagement and job satisfaction, iv) spiritual congruence and interpersonal care, and v) spiritual leadership and well-being. Most findings demonstrated moderate-to-strong associations between workplace spirituality and decreased burnout, increased engagement, and greater organizational commitment. Nevertheless, these advantages were conditional and mitigated in the conditions of overwork, insufficiency of staffing, moral tension, and insufficient organizational support. This review offers a quantitative integrative synthesis of the first nursing-specific evidence to be published after the pandemic and shows that workplace spirituality serves as a complementary resource, rather than a standalone, to occupational well-being. The findings highlight important implications of nursing policy regarding introducing spirituality-based leadership development, ethical governance, and workforce support as part of the broader structural reforms.

Abstract

Exercise is recommended for pregnant women, but many are sedentary. Studies on barriers to physical activity and exercise among pregnant women in West Java Province, Indonesia, are scarce. This study aims to identify and explore the underlying factors associated with physical activity during pregnancy in West Java, Indonesia. This study was conducted using a mixed-methods strategy that integrates quantitative and qualitative data. The study surveyed pregnant women in West Java, Indonesia, from January to March 2023. The study involved 18-year-olds, married women, and fluent Bahasa participants. It used a questionnaire to assess physical pregnancy activity intention, and analyzed data using descriptive, correlation withp<0.025 included in linear regression analysis. While in a qualitative study used semi-structure interview. A study of 200 pregnant women found that age negatively correlated with total metabolic equivalent of task (MET), while gestational age, education level, body mass index (BMI), and pregnancy complications positively impacted it. Pregnancy symptoms, limited time, and low social support were identified as themes impacting adhering to physical activity recommendations. The study reveals that factors such as age, gestational age, education level, BMI, and pregnancy complications significantly influence total MET in pregnant women, suggesting the need for personalized interventions.

Abstract

The urgency was in developing a more holistic and sustainable approach to supporting type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. This study evaluated the effectiveness of the Calgary Family Intervention Model (CFIM) in improving dietary adherence and knowledge in patients with T2DM. This study used a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental design, involving 280 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus at the Bolo Community Health Center from January to October 2025. The sample was divided into two groups: intervention (CFIM education) and control (booklet). Data were collected using a valid and reliable questionnaire to measure knowledge and dietary adherence. Data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests. The analysis showed significant results, with the mean knowledge score in the intervention group increasing from 4.84±1.235 to 8.98±2.851 (p < 0.05), while in the control group, it increased from 4.64±1.120 to 7.06±1.219. For dietary adherence, the intervention group showed an increase from 27.00±6.518 to 61.38±7.171 (p = 0.000), compared to the control group, which increased from 27.28±5.592 to 49.44±10.194(p < 0.05). The implications of these results have the potential to strengthen the family-based health intervention model and improve the overall well-being of T2DM patients. This study contributes significantly to family nursing practice by demonstrating the efficacy of the CFIM in enhancing dietary adherence and knowledge among patients with T2DM.

Abstract

Depression is a treatable mental health condition with various medication options available. For patients with major depressive disorder (MDD), adherence to antidepressants is essential for effective treatment. However, low medication adherence remains a significant challenge, particularly in individuals with depression. Pharmacists play a crucial role in managing these patients. This systematic review evaluated the impact of pharmacist-led interventions, focusing on the effectiveness of delivery modes (in-person vs. online) in improving medication adherence and clinical outcomes for patients with depression. Randomised and non-randomised controlled trials were included. Data were sourced from PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar using keywords such as "pharmacist intervention," "education," "medication adherence," "depression," and "medication compliance." Three reviewers independently screened and selected articles, and methodological quality was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Randomized Controlled Trial Checklist. From an initial pool of 791 publications, 364 underwent a comprehensive review, and 14 met the inclusion criteria. The most successful interventions were those conducted face-to-face (83%), compared to those conducted through video and phone calls (16%). However, neither method could improve the severity of depression significantly. Pharmacist interventions can enhance patient adherence to antidepressant medication in patients with depression. Compared to virtual methods, face-to-face techniques are more effective at improving adherence. However, they were not able to improve the symptoms of depression.

Abstract

This study aimed to map and analyze the spatial distribution of toddler stunting in Malang and identify key risk factors that are spatially correlated with stunting incidence across sub-districts and villages. A geospatial modeling approach using geographically weighted regression (GWR) was employed to account for local variations in the influence of risk factors, reflecting the heterogeneity of conditions that contribute to stunting in different areas. The analysis revealed significant spatial autocorrelation, with stunting cases clustering in specific locations. Results indicate that sanitation risks and household waste management practices were the most significant determinants of stunting prevalence among toddlers in Malang. Improper waste segregation, which leads to odors and attracts flies, and ineffective disposal methods, such as open burning or dumping, were strongly associated with higher stunting rates. These findings underscore the importance of targeted interventions addressing environmental health and sanitation at the local level. By integrating geospatial analysis with GWR modeling, this study highlights the spatial heterogeneity of stunting determinants, providing evidence to guide community-specific public health strategies. Improved sanitation practices and proper household waste management are critical to reducing toddler stunting in areas with clustered risk.

Abstract

Nurses are critical in enhancing the quality of care and patient safety due to their commitment to caring for patients 24 hours a day and their interaction with families and other health professionals. The role of gender in the interprofessional team is more complex and warrants further investigation, even though it has been increasingly studied at the level of the individual healthcare provider. In this study, we examined sex differences in patient safety culture practices among nurses. This study was conducted using a cross-sectional design at a general public hospital in Karawang, West Java, Indonesia. The hospital survey on patient safety culture (HSPSC) was used. A chi-square test and an independent t-test were used to determine whether there were any differences in patient safety culture practice between the sexes. A total of 75 males and 145 females agreed to join this study. The mean age of female and male participants was 34.21 ± 14.07 and 36.29 ± 12.51 years old, respectively. Age, marital status, and working position were significantly different between males and females (p < 0.05). Females reported to have a higher overall score of patient safety culture practices than males (3.65 (SD = 1.12 vs. 3.11 (SD = 1.43), p-value = 0.001). According to the patient safety culture practice domain, teamwork (4.21 (SD = 1.35) vs. 3.78 (SD = 1.76), p-value = 0.001), response to error (3.56 (SD = 1.93) vs. 3.31 (SD = 1.93), p-value = 0.001), and communication openness (3.881.56 vs. 2.35 (SD = 0.92), p-value = 0.001) were higher among female than male. Nurses must be trained, and professional communication must be improved as a means of ensuring better patient safety. Patient safety cultures vary widely across hospitals, units, and countries, as evidenced by the growing number of studies that have looked at this issue in depth.

Abstract

Lead exposure is a persistent environmental health concern that can impair cognitive function in adolescents. Therefore, this study aims to examine the association between acute and chronic lead exposure and intelligence quotient (IQ) scores among Indonesian adolescents. A cross-sectional study was carried out involving 39 adolescents who were chosen through purposive sampling. Acute exposure was assessed using blood lead levels(n = 15), while chronic exposure was evaluated with hair lead levels(n = 24). IQ was measured using WAIS administered by a licensed psychologist, while associations between the variables were examined utilizing the Chi-square test. The results revealed that chronic lead exposure was significantly linked to below-average IQ (OR = 1.90; 95% CI: 1.07-3.36), while acute exposure had a weaker relationship (OR = 0.35; 95% CI: 0.13-0.89; p = 0.022). These results indicated the importance of long-term environmental exposure control.

Abstract

Neonatal mortality in Indonesia continues to increase, especially during the first 0-6 days of life, indicating persistent gaps in the quality of maternal and neonatal care. The maternal perinatal surveillance and response audit (AMP-SR) is implemented to identify causes of death and guide preventive and curative actions. This scoping review aims to explore the causes and risk factors of neonatal mortality using the AMP-SR framework. Article searches were conducted in Google Scholar, Garuda, and PubMed using the keywords (“Neonatal Death” OR “Cause of Death” OR “Kematian Neonatal”) AND (“AMP-SR” OR “Death Notification”). Inclusion criteria comprised primary studies published in Indonesian or English between 2021 and 2025 that examined neonatal deaths using the AMP-SR approach. Seventeen articles were selected and thematically analyzed following the PRISMA guidelines. The main causes of neonatal death were clinical conditions, including asphyxia, prematurity, sepsis, hypothermia, and congenital abnormalities. Identified risk factors encompassed maternal age, pregnancy complications, referral delays, inadequate quality of care, and limited health worker competence. Most neonatal deaths occurred within the first 72 hours of life, predominantly among male infants with low birth weight or gestational age under 37 weeks. These findings demonstrate that neonatal mortality results from interconnected medical, maternal, and health system factors that can be systematically identified through AMP-SR. From a policy and practice perspective, strengthening the routine use of AMP-SR findings to inform targeted quality improvement, referral system strengthening, and workforce capacity-building is essential to reduce preventable neonatal deaths in Indonesia.
