Abstract

Adherence to ethical principles is essential nowadays in neuroscience and neuropsychiatric research. observance of ethical principles is essential in the case of neurology and neuroscience research, as it is in all the other medical and surgical fields. as neuroscience research advances, researchers, clinicians, and other stakeholders will face a host of ethical challenges. Ethical problems of neuroscience-based diagnosis and interventions. This section concerns problems resulting from neuroimaging, pharmacological brain enhancement, and new technical interventions in the brain. The research is based on a literature review, so data will be collected from literary sources such as scientific journals, books, and articles in January 2023 relating to the research topic. The literature search process must be systematically documented, including keywords, databases used, and search dates. Data analysis will be carried out by reading and understanding the content of the literature, identifying ethical problems encountered in the field of neuroscience and neuropsychiatry, and analyzing different perspectives in addressing these ethical problems.  In this article, we also review the major ethical issues raised by advances in neuropsychiatric genetics. Advances in neuroscience raise ethical, social, and legal issues about the human person and the brain. The potential benefits of applying neuroimaging, psychopharmacology, and neurotechnology to support mentally ill and healthy persons have to be carefully weighed against their potential harm. Questions concerning underlying concepts of humans should be actively dealt with by interdisciplinary and public debate.  t is therefore essential to develop bioethics and encourage discoveries in neuroscience to firmly respect the ethical principles available at the time of their publication.Keyword: Ethical Issues, Neuroscience, Neuropsychiatric

Abstract

AbstractSmoking is a bad habit that if left unchecked will cause health problems that lead to death. In addition, smoking is closely related to various neurological, cardiovascular, and pulmonary diseases. Cigarettes can also cause other people around the smoker to get diseases due to being a passive smoker. Factors that influence smoking behavior include knowledge and attitudes toward smoking. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between individual factors and adolescent smoking behavior in the Rawasari Health Center, Jambi City working area. This research is a quantitative study with a cross-sectional design. The population in this study were all male adolescents in the working area of the Rawasari Health Center with an age range of 15-24 years, namely 6.490 youths and the sample in this study was 100 adolescents. Data analysis using chi-square. The results of the study most of the respondents smoked, namely as many as 70 respondents (70%). Most of the respondents knowledge was low about smoking, its ingredients, the effects or health impacts caused, and the disadvantages of smoking, namely as many as 69 respondents (69%). More than half of the respondents (59%) have a supportive attitude towards smoking as many do not agree (38 respondents) not to smoke rather than creating a bad image in their environment. Based on the analysis there is a relationship between knowledge (p=0.000) and attitude (p=0.000) with smoking behavior in adolescents (p <0.05). There needs to be direction and guidance from parents, the role of puskesmas officers to conduct counseling about the dangers of smoking, and appeals not to smoke.Keywords:  Male Youth,  Rawasari Health Center, Smoking Behavior

Abstract

Menstruation is periodic bleeding from the uterus that begins about 14 days after ovulation periodically due to the shedding of the lining of the uterus. Generally, the menarche cycle in normal women is 28-35 days and the duration of menstruation is between 3-7 days. The menarche cycle in women is said to be abnormal if the menarche cycle is less than 21 days or more than 40 days. Irregular menarche cycles can be caused by irregular eating patterns and unbalanced nutrition. The purpose of this research was to determine the relationship between nutritional status and the menarche cycle in female students. This type of research is quantitative research with a cross sectional approach. This type of research is quantitative research with a cross sectional approach. The sampling technique in this study was random sampling with a total sample of 51 female students who had been counted from a total population of 104 female students. Data processing uses univariate data analysis using a frequency distribution, while bivariate uses the Chi Square test. Most of the respondents had normal nutritional status, amounting to 66.7%, and respondents who had abnormal nutritional status amounted to 33.3%. Most of the respondents experienced regular menstruation as much as 70.6%, most of them experienced irregular menstruation as much as 29.4%. The statistical test results between nutritional status and the menarche cycle obtained a P value of 0.012 or a Pvalue <0.005, which means that there is a relationship between nutritional status and the menarche cycle. Nutritional status can affect the menarche cycle so there is a need to improve nutrition for female students.Keywords: Menarche cycle, Nutrition, Student

Abstract

One of the nutritional problems experienced by children in Indonesia is stunting. Stunting itself is a condition of poor child growth and development. The researcher aims to explore the driving factors and inhibitors of stunting parenting behavior in Padang Lawas Regency. The type of research used in the study was qualitative research with a descriptive phenomenological approach. This research was conducted at three health centers: Sibuhuan Health Center, Tanjung Botung Health Center, and Ujung Batu Health Center in July 2022-January 2023. In this study, the number of participants was ten people consisting of mothers, community leaders, and regional heads. The data analysis in this study was carried out by content analysis immediately after each interview process, namely at the same time as the data transcript was made. The results of interviews about mothers' knowledge in fulfilling children's nutrition found that the majority of mothers have good knowledge in fulfilling nutrition in general, where mothers know about the definition of exclusive breast milk and its benefits, know the right time to give complementary foods for breast milk and the types of foods that must be present in the child's plate in fulfilling their nutrition. This study concludes that positive parenting behavior occurs when there is a driving force for positive behavior; the driving factors found in this study are knowledge, access to information, and support from health workers. At the same time, the mother's parenting behavior is negative if there are restraining forces that prevent her from positive behavior.  It is recommended to the Ujung Batu, Tanjung Botung and Sibuhuan Community Health Centers to provide health education on exclusive breastfeeding and appropriate complementary foods for toddlers and to collaborate with cross-sectors in preventing stunting through changing behavior in fulfilling child nutrition.  Keyword:  Breast Milk, Behavior, Complementary Foods,  Parenting, Stunting

Abstract

The term stunting refers to an intellectual disorder characterized by mental abilities that reflect past nutritional status and a decline in development in children caused by chronic malnutrition. This can lead to stunted growth in children. Which can have a negative impact on the physical and mental development of children and subsequent learning abilities. Stunting is caused by various interacting factors, including poor sanitation and various other factors related to health, but the main cause is inadequate diet (total calories and essential nutrients), especially in the first 1,000 days. Malnutrition is an important determinant of maternal and child health, with significant negative effects on children's brain and cognitive development. This criterion uses original articles published in English and Indonesian. Articles published within the last 10 years. The review method uses a systematic review using PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Item for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis) with Systematic Review obtained from the Pubmed database, Scient direct, Wiley. This study went through four stages, namely identification, screening, feasibility and results received. This is so that the problem of stunting in children's cognitive development can be solved.Keywords: Child, Development cognitive, Stunting

Abstract

Objective: This review aims to find a relationship between the increasing number of monkeypox cases, especially in LGBT community, based on the literature study approach and case reports. One of the non-medicamentous ways is to reduce travelling abroad, especially in countries with many monkeypox cases. Preventing direct contact, such as abstaining from sex and using condoms, is also a way to reduce the morbidity of monkeypox infection, especially in LGBT community. The treatment has not proven effective, and the available vaccines, especially in Indonesia, are still limited. Only a few cases in Indonesia have been reported. Method: This research is based on a literature study approach and case reports with article sources obtained from Eurosurveillance and Elsevier. It restricts articles using the keywords "cases that occurred in patients in the LGBT / MSM community" to get relevant data following the current monkeypox outbreak conditions. Result: The appearance of the monkeypox virus in 2022 in 58 countries and Indonesia is no exception, which confirmed 1 case in patients post travelling abroad. The current monkeypox infection is still present, with symptoms that vary from person to person and are typically characterized by reddish rashes. Still, it is primarily confined to the genital, perigenital, and perianal areas. It manifests at various stages of development, in addition to transmission from animals caused by hunting activities or in LGBT ( Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender) communities that have unprotected sex and can be infected through semen and saliva. Conclusion: Monkeypox cases that occur globally in 2022 need further research to reduce and prevent, especially in the LGBT community and those at risk of infection, pregnant women and babies, as well as medical personnel in close contact with patients. One of the non-medical procedures is reducing travel abroad, especially in countries with many cases of monkeypox, and reducing direct contact with sufferers, such as abstinence from sex and using condoms in the LGBT community, is also one way to reduce the morbidity of monkeypox infection. The treatment has not been proven effective, and the existing vaccines, especially in Indonesia, are still limited. Only a few cases in Indonesia have been reported.
