Abstract

Anxiety is a psychological symptom experienced by patients with substance use disorders, which may occur both during substance use and throughout the withdrawal process. Substance abuse is often associated with various health issues, including mental health disorders such as anxiety and depression, which further diminish patients’ quality of life. Furthermore, elevated anxiety levels among individuals with substance use disorders increase the risk of relapse and rehabilitation failure. In this context, psychoreligious therapy through listening to Quranic murottal has emerged as a potential alternative for managing anxiety in individuals with substance use disorders. This study aimed to investigate the effect of Quranic murottal psychoreligious therapy on reducing anxiety levels in patients undergoing rehabilitation at the West Java Provincial Mental Hospital. A quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group approach was used. A total of 28 respondents were selected through total sampling. The study demonstrated a significant effect of Quranic murottal therapy in reducing anxiety levels among patients with substance use disorders, with an average decrease of 13.143 points. Statistical analysis showed a p-value of 0.000, which is lower than the significance threshold of 0.05 (p < 0.05). Additionally, a significant difference in anxiety levels was also observed in the control group (p = 0.02 < 0.05). The findings indicate that Quranic murottal psychoreligious therapy significantly reduces anxiety levels in patients with substance use disorders. These results are expected to contribute to the implementation of spiritual care interventions in the substance use rehabilitation ward.

Abstract

Adolescent nutritional status is influenced by multiple dietary behaviors, including breakfast habits and snack food consumption. This study aimed to examine the association between breakfast habits and snack consumption frequency with the nutritional status of students at SMA Negeri 4 Surakarta. An observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among 100 students in grades X and XI, selected using stratified proportional random sampling. Breakfast habits were assessed using a 3-day food record and categorized as regular (consuming breakfast ≥5 days per week) or irregular (<5 days per week). Snack food consumption was measured using a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) and classified as frequent (≥1 time per day) or infrequent (<1 time per day). Nutritional status was determined using Body Mass Index-for-Age (BMI-for-age) based on WHO standards. The results showed that 79% of students had regular breakfast habits, while 21% had irregular habits. Snack consumption was equally distributed, with 50% categorized as frequent consumers and 50% as infrequent consumers. In terms of nutritional status, 8% of students were underweight, 74% were normal, and 18% were overweight. Chi-square analysis revealed a significant association between breakfast habits and nutritional status (p = 0.021, Cramér’s V = 0.32), as well as between snack consumption frequency and nutritional status (p = 0.034, Cramér’s V = 0.28). In conclusion, both breakfast habits and snack consumption frequency are significantly associated with the nutritional status of high school students. These findings underscore the importance of promoting regular breakfast consumption and healthy snacking behaviors to support optimal adolescent nutrition.

Abstract

Impetigo is a superficial bacterial skin infection commonly found in children, especially aged 2–5 years. This case report describes a 1 year 7 months old girl presenting with vesiculobullous lesions on the face and neck for one week, which ruptured and left yellowish crusts. The patient had previously received treatment from a primary health center without improvement. Clinical examination revealed multiple erythematous vesicles with crusting and well-defined borders on the face and neck. A diagnosis of vesiculobullous impetigo was established with differential diagnoses of contact dermatitis, staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome, and bullous pemphigoid. The patient was treated with gentamicin cream applied twice daily after bathing and oral amoxiclav syrup three times daily. Education on hygiene, infection prevention, and follow-up was also provided. Clinical improvement was evaluated after one week. Prognosis was good, both for life, function, and recovery. This case highlights the importance of accurate diagnosis and appropriate management in pediatric impetigo to prevent complications and transmission.

Abstract

Support from a spouse, encompassing attention, encouragement, emotional care, and practical assistance, plays a vital role in sustaining wives’ psychological well-being, particularly in early marriage when readiness and adaptive capacities are still developing. This study aimed to describe how women in early marriages perceive social support received from their partners. A quantitative descriptive design was employed. The population consisted of women who married early, with 46 participants selected using a total population sampling technique. Data were collected using the Support in Intimate Relationships Rating Scale-Revised (SIRRS-R) instrument and analyzed using univariate analysis, categorizing results into high, medium, and low levels. The findings revealed that most respondents reported a moderate level of overall partner support. Across the four dimensions of support, scores were predominantly in the moderate range, with the lowest proportion observed in the esteem/emotional support dimension. Although women in early marriages receive partner support, it remains suboptimal for addressing the psychological and adaptive challenges associated with early marriage. This study highlights the need to strengthen spousal support, particularly emotional and esteem-related aspects, to enhance psychological well-being and facilitate role adjustment in early marital contexts.

Abstract

Fishermen are a group of workers with long working hours and irregular working conditions, which can potentially affect their health behaviors, particularly their dietary patterns. The dietary patterns of fishermen in the Pangandaran coastal area tend to be irregular due to heavy workloads, time constraints, and limited access to nutritious food while at sea. The Health Belief Model (HBM) explains that health behavior is influenced by individuals' perceptions of susceptibility, severity, benefits, and barriers. This study aimed to examine the relationship between Health Belief Model beliefs and the dietary patterns of fishermen in the Pangandaran coastal area. This study employed a quantitative descriptive design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of fishermen at Cikidang Port, Pangandaran, with a sample of 126 respondents selected through simple random sampling. Dietary patterns were measured using the Semi-Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQ-FFQ), while health beliefs were measured using a Health Belief Model questionnaire covering perceptions of susceptibility, severity, benefits, and barriers. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate analyses with correlation tests. The results showed that most fishermen had poor dietary patterns, while the majority of respondents had high perceptions of susceptibility, severity, and benefits, as well as low perceptions of barriers. Bivariate analysis found no relationship between the four components of the Health Belief Model and fishermen's dietary patterns. These findings indicate that high health beliefs are not necessarily accompanied by healthy dietary behaviors and suggest that factors such as working conditions, limited access to food, and the lack of integration of self-efficacy and cues to action may also influence dietary patterns.

Abstract

Dengue hemorrhagic fever remains a significant public health problem, particularly in endemic areas where adolescents are also at risk of exposure. Limited knowledge regarding transmission, symptoms, and prevention may contribute to inadequate preventive behavior. Educational media that are attractive and easy to understand are needed to improve adolescent knowledge, including video-based health education. This study aimed to determine the effect of video media on improving adolescents’ knowledge about dengue hemorrhagic fever. This quasi-experimental study used a one-group pretest-posttest design. The participants were 100 students in grades VII-IX at MTs Darussalam, Melong, Cimahi, recruited through total sampling. A five-minute dengue education video was shown three times during the intervention session. Knowledge was assessed immediately before and after the intervention using an 11-item study-specific questionnaire. Data were summarized descriptively and analyzed using the Marginal Homogeneity test. Before the intervention, most respondents had poor knowledge (64.0%), while only 15.0% had good knowledge. After the intervention, the proportion with good knowledge increased to 54.0%, while poor knowledge decreased to 17.0%. The Marginal Homogeneity test indicated a statistically significant change in knowledge level (p < 0.001). Video-based health education was associated with a significant improvement in adolescents' dengue knowledge. This medium may be considered as an accessible health-promotion strategy for school-age populations.

Abstract

Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is common among female adolescents and can interfere with learning, emotional well-being, and daily activities. Physical activity and sleep quality are modifiable lifestyle factors that may be associated with PMS severity. This study aimed to determine the associations between physical activity, sleep quality, and PMS severity among eleventh-grade female students at MAN Kota Cimahi in 2025. A quantitative correlational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted in March 2025. From a population of 205 students, 67 respondents were selected using proportional simple random sampling. Physical activity, sleep quality, and PMS were assessed using the IPAQ-SF, PSQI, and SPAF, respectively. Data were analyzed using Gamma correlation. Most respondents had low physical activity (82.1%), poor sleep quality (79.1%), and moderate PMS (65.7%). Physical activity was strongly and inversely associated with PMS severity (γ = -0.787; p = 0.003), whereas poor sleep quality was strongly and positively associated with PMS severity (γ = 0.738; p = 0.004). Physical activity and sleep quality were significantly associated with PMS severity. Higher physical activity was associated with lower PMS severity, whereas poorer sleep quality was associated with greater PMS severity. These findings support school-based nursing education that promotes regular physical activity, healthy sleep habits, menstrual symptom monitoring, and timely referral for adolescents with disruptive symptoms.

Abstract

The Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) remains a significant public health problem in Indonesia, largely due to delays in recognizing danger signs during pregnancy and seeking medical care. Pregnant women need to be aware of the importance of receiving regular antenatal care from healthcare professionals and participating in pregnancy classes. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach to determine the effect of pregnancy class education on the prevention of pregnancy complications at the Kauman Community Health Center, Tulungagung Regency, from February to March 2026. A sample of 25 third-trimester pregnant women was selected through purposive sampling, and data were collected using validated questionnaires. The results showed a substantial improvement in the respondents' abilities. Before the intervention, 64% (n = 16) of the participants were unable to detect early pregnancy complications; after the intervention, this proportion decreased to 36% (n = 9), while 64% (n = 16) were able to detect complications. Data analysis using a paired-samples t-test showed a significant improvement in the ability to detect pregnancy complications, with a mean difference of 0.280, t(24) = 3.055, and p = 0.005. These findings demonstrate that structured pregnancy class education effectively empowers pregnant women to identify early risk factors and provides an important strategy for community health centers to reduce maternal and neonatal morbidity through community-based preventive education.

Abstract

The postpartum period is a phase of physical and psychological adaptation during which mothers are vulnerable to emotional disturbances, including postpartum blues. Non-pharmacological interventions such as lavender aromatherapy have been reported to promote relaxation and may help reduce anxiety and stress among postpartum mothers. This study aimed to determine the effect of lavender essential oil aromatherapy on reducing the risk of postpartum blues among mothers in the working area of the Lameuru Community Health Center. A quasi-experimental study with a pretest–posttest control group design was conducted. A total of 60 respondents were recruited using a total sampling technique and allocated to an intervention group (n = 30) and a control group (n = 30). The intervention group received lavender essential oil aromatherapy for 14 days, whereas the control group received standard postpartum care, including health education and routine postpartum services. The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) was used to assess the risk of postpartum blues. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test and the Mann–Whitney U test. The median EPDS score in the intervention group decreased substantially from 14.00 (IQR: 12.75–15.00) at pretest to 7.00 (IQR: 6.00–8.25) at posttest, while the median EPDS score in the control group decreased from 14.00 (IQR: 13.00–15.00) at pretest to 12.00 (IQR: 11.00–13.00) at posttest. Between-group analysis demonstrated a statistically significant difference in EPDS score changes (p < 0.001). These findings indicate that lavender essential oil aromatherapy is more effective than standard postpartum care in reducing the risk of postpartum blues among postpartum mothers.

Abstract

Female sex workers are at high risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), and adequate knowledge is essential for adopting preventive behaviors. This study aimed to analyze the association between knowledge of sexually transmitted infections and STI/HIV preventive behavior among female sex workers in Tegal Gede, Bekasi Regency. An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted in 2023 using total sampling of all 36 active female sex workers in the study area. Data were collected using structured questionnaires to assess STI knowledge and STI/HIV preventive behavior. Descriptive statistics, including frequencies, percentages, and a 2 × 2 crosstabulation, were calculated. Because 75% of the expected cell counts were below 5, the two-sided Fisher exact test was used, and the association was expressed as an odds ratio (OR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). Poor STI knowledge was identified in 33 respondents (91.7%), and 32 respondents (88.9%) demonstrated unsupportive STI/HIV preventive behavior. Unsupportive behavior was observed in 31 of 33 respondents (93.9%) with poor STI knowledge compared with 1 of 3 respondents (33.3%) with good STI knowledge. Knowledge of STIs was significantly associated with STI/HIV preventive behavior (Fisher exact p = 0.027; OR = 31.00; 95% CI: 1.896–506.771). Poor STI knowledge was associated with substantially higher odds of unsupportive STI/HIV preventive behavior. These findings highlight the importance of targeted, non-stigmatizing health education and improved access to STI/HIV prevention services for female sex workers.
