Abstract

Wonogiri Regency, Indonesia, is a calcareous mountainous region which has limitations in terms of iodine content in soil and water. Kismantoro is one of the Sub-districts in the regency with severe iodine deficiency. This condition is related to the intake of iodine and factors that inhibit the intake of iodine such as goitrogens. This causal-comparative study was conducted to determine the difference of iodine and goitrogenic foods intakes among menopausal women in Kismantoro Sub-district. A total of 307 menopausal women were taken randomly. Iodine intake as well as goitrogens were measured using the semi quantitative-food frequency questionnaire (SQ-FFQ). There was no difference in the percentage of recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for iodine intake (p=0.857) and goitrogens intake (p=0.084) among the menopausal women, but there were differences in energy, protein, carbohydrate, and fat intake (p<0.001) respectively. In addition, the prevalence of goiter was 10.4% which did not differ in the premenopausal, perimenopausal and postmenopausal groups (p=0.227). However, it was found that most menopausal women had insufficient iodine intake (71.3%) and frequent goitrogenic foods intake (68.7%). Thus, a synergistic manner between stakeholders is still needed to improve the variation of iodine food sources while consume less goitrogens in the area.

Abstract

After the pandemic, the Ministry of Education proposed the teaching of virtual classes, a measure that generated adaptation processes. The present research aimed to determine the relationship between tolerance to frustration and adaptation to virtual classes due to the pandemic in adolescents from a public and private university. A study was carried Prospective cross-sectional correlational study, the sample made up of 86 students from a private and public university, the survey and instrument technique were used, a Likert scale questionnaire applied via Google Docs, applied to students who have developed face-to-face classes and later they have held virtual classes. The tolerance to frustration in adolescents of the Private University of Huancayo Franklin Roosevelt and the National University of Huancavelica is medium and the adaptation to virtual classes is in the process of adaptation. There is a direct average correlation between tolerance to frustration and adaptation to virtual classes in adolescents from a public and private university in a pandemic; with a Spearman's Rho value of 0.634 and a p. bilateral significance value of 0.000. The Peruvian educational system was not yet prepared for virtual education, finding many deficiencies. We recommend carrying out multicenter studies, which allow the outcomes of this change in educational modality to be compared in various regions.

Abstract

The existence of demands that occur simultaneously causes some adolescents to be unable to adapt properly, especially the condition of adolescents who experience changeable emotions, are unstable, easily stressed, feel anxious, depressed, and feel helpless. Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy that can be used for adolescent emotional problems. The purpose of this study is to prove that CBT interventions can increase serotonin levels and reduce adolescent anxiety levels. The research population is adolescents with anxiety problems in the city of Surabaya. The research sample is 32 respondents with techniques systematic sampling. Inclusion criteria include: i) adolescents aged 12–18 years, ii) experiencing mental emotional anxiety problems as measured by a score with self-reporting questionnaire (SRQ-29), and iii) being willing to participate in the research and get permission from parents. Data collection using an instrument in the form of a Taylor Manifest Anxiety Scale (TMAS). The data have been analyzed by the Wilcoxon test. The results show that there were significant differences in serotonin levels and anxiety levels before and after the intervention given CBT. The average value of serotonin levels in the posttest was higher than the pretest (p=0.001) and the average value of anxiety levels in the posttest was lower than the pretest (p=0.043) indicating that giving CBT interventions was able to significantly reduce anxiety levels. CBT interventions are proven to increase serotonin levels and reduce adolescent anxiety levels. By changing the form of thought and the resulting consequences, the intensity of the subject's anxiety decreases.

Abstract

The prevalence of anaemia among adolescent girls in Indonesia is 18.4%. One of the main indicator targets is reducing the prevalence of anaemia is in the form of iron-folic acid (IFA) supplementation for adolescent girls. The research aims to analyze knowledge of female youth on anaemia and management of iron-folic acid supplementation. This study used a cross-sectional design, and it was conducted in 24 senior high schools in Cianjur Regency (high stunting area) and Depok City (low stunting area). The total sample of this study was 243 female youth. The study began from September 2019 to February 2020 for the 1st term and continued from October 2022 to March 2023 for the 2nd term. The quantitative result showed that there was a significant difference in knowledge about the frequency of providing the iron-folic acid supplement (IFAS) at school and the duration in a year that students must consume the IFAS between high stunting and low stunting (p=0.000). A significant proportion of female youth, 67.5% in high stunting areas and 71.7% in low stunting areas, exhibit insufficient nutrition knowledge, underscoring the necessity for a nutrition education initiative targeting high school students. The qualitative results showed the input-process-output of the IFA program have been administered for the last few years, providing several constraints in order to improve the IFA program management. Based on those findings, the IFA supplementation program provides a potential chance for addressing anaemia in female youth.

Abstract

This meta–analysis examines the far–reaching effects of long COVID (LC), highlighting the need for welfare strategies emphasizing the Parity of Esteem. The analysis of clinical studies reveals the prevalence of LC across various demographic factors, including age, gender, infection type, and severity. The findings highlight persistent pulmonary impairments that result in post-COVID pulmonary fibrosis (PCPF), long-term cardiovascular symptoms, gastrointestinal issues, dermatological concerns, and neuropsychiatric outcomes. These effects continue beyond the acute phase of COVID-19, affecting both symptomatic and asymptomatic people. The study emphasizes that LC is not only a physical ailment but also has a significant impact on mental health, necessitating a holistic approach to healthcare. Psychological and emotional distress among LC patients necessitates empathetic support. This study concludes by emphasizing the significance of LC and advocating for data-driven healthcare policies and assistance programs to address the unique challenges encountered by COVID-19 survivors. For managing the long-term effects of LC on both physical and mental health, an unwavering commitment to parity of esteem is crucial.

Abstract

Insufficient knowledge and information about mental health hinders the optimal use of adolescent mental health services. This qualitative case study aims to describe the utilization of adolescent mental health services (MHS) from the perspective of healthcare providers in primary health care (PHC). The primary informants were psychologists and youth care health services (YCHS) coordinators, while the triangulated informants comprised adolescents; they were selected using the purposive sampling technique. This research employs primary data collected through focus group discussions with the primary informants and in-depth interviews with the triangulated informants. The study results reported that there is no PHC providing MHS specifically designed for adolescents. Further, as low mental health literacy and stigma from parents were identified as challenges, peer support was detected to be the reinforcing factors for adolescents to access MHS. Hence, mental health literacy must be integrated into the school curriculum so that adolescent self-diagnosis does not occur.

Abstract

A decline in the quality of services provided to patients and an increase in patient care costs are caused by a decline in their ability to work. Patient safety culture is a product of individual and group values, attitudes, competencies, and behavioral patterns that determine the commitment, style, and capabilities of a health service organization towards patient safety programs. This study examined the effects of empowerment on patient safety culture and employed descriptive, cross-sectional, analytical methodology. Proportionate random sampling was the sample method used at a hospital in Samarinda, Indonesia, with 119 respondents. Hospital surveys regarding patient safety culture and empowerment were used to gather data. Partial least squares and structural equation modeling were used for data analysis. Regarding opportunity indications for activities, the empowerment average had the highest score, 15.8 (SD=2.987). For teamwork within the unit, the patient safety culture had the highest average score of 13.3 (SD=1.777). The initial sample estimate value of 0.677 indicated that empowerment had a positive impact on patient safety culture. The T-Test result was 15.180, indicating that the value was greater than 1.98. Nurses’ autonomy in their work can be supported through empowerment. The stronger the empowerment, the more patient-safety culture the hospital will have.

Abstract

Nutritional problems are public health problems that are still found in developing countries, one of the prevention efforts requires nutritional data information. Geographic information systems (GIS) is an information system application that can analyze spatial data, such as population distribution, regional boundaries, and access to health centers. This study aims to examine the use of spatial data analysis with GIS in monitoring nutrition programs. The methods used in data retrieval use scientific database searches such as PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar as well as VOSviewer application with Keywords such as "spatial data analysis", "Geographic Information System", "Nutrition program", and design and implementation. The results of this study state that the GiS has a broad impact on the dissemination of nutritional status information, especially in areas with nutritional vulnerability, GIS spatial analysis can help understand the factors that contribute to malnutrition, as well as environmental factors that influence the success of nutrition programs. The results of the study concluded that priority areas of nutrition program intervention on the use of Geographic Information Systems can be used to make decisions and analyze spatial data to reduce the burden of disease in these areas. Furthermore, this review further enhances the understanding of the use of GiS for nutrition program interventions in improving the success of nutrition programs.

Abstract

Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death among females today. The elbow approach determines the ideal number of clusters after determining that the Dataset is highly cluster able with the Hopkins statistic. Three distinct groups with distinct differences were produced using the dataset's proposed expectation maximization fuzzy k-means clustering algorithm (PEMFKM). Different fuzzy clustering techniques, such as fuzzy k-means (FKM), fuzzy k-means with entropy (FKM.ENT), fuzzy k-means with entropy and noise (FKM.ENT.NOISE), Gustafson and Kessel - like fuzzy k-means (FKM.GK), Gustafson and Kessel - like fuzzy k-means with entropy regularization (FKM.GK.ENT), Gustafson and Kessel - like fuzzy kmeans with entropy regularization and noise (FKM.GK.ENT.NOISE), and PEMFKM, are evaluated. The partition coefficient (PC), partition entropy (PE), and Modified partition coefficient index (MPC) index values are better for FKM.GK than the suggested PEMFKM method. When compared to the FKM.GK method, the index values for the proposed PEMFKM algorithm have superior results for the parameters Silhouette (SIL), Xie and Beni index (XB), and fuzzy silhouette index (SIL.F). The results shows that the PEMFKM algorithm will provide better clusters and that the drugs in a given cluster may be combined for use in combination therapy for breast cancer treatment.
