Abstract

Most elderly people with hypertension have poor sleep quality. Poor sleep quality in elderly people with hypertension can worsen their hypertension condition, causing an increased risk of heart disease, cognitive impairment, and a general reduction in quality of life. Benson relaxation therapy and progressive muscle relaxation can be an effective and safe alternative in managing sleep and activity in elderly people with hypertension. Both therapies do not involve the use of drugs and can be easily learned by seniors. This study aims to determine the effect of Benson relaxation therapy and progressive muscle relaxation on sleep quality in hypertensive elderly people. This research uses a quasi-experimental method with a one group pretest posttest design. Data collection used the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire. The sample was determined using purposive sampling with a total of 35 respondents. The statistical results of the paired sample t-test showed a p value of 0.000 (p value < α 0.05) so it can be concluded that there is an influence of Benson relaxation therapy and progressive muscle relaxation on sleep quality in hypertensive elderly people. This study suggests integrating progressive muscle relaxation interventions combined with Benson therapy into community health programs by actively involving families.

Abstract

Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition influenced by genetics and the environment. It affects 57.8 per 100.000 people in 2019. The severity of psoriasis is assessed using the Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI), with scores above 10 indicating moderate to severe disease. Treatment options for psoriasis including systemic therapies and phototherapy. Patient satisfaction remains suboptimal, with adherence rates to systemic therapy as low as 40%. Narrowband ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) phototherapy is preferred for its safety. This review aims to evaluate the effectiveness of NB-UVB phototherapy in treating moderate-to-severe psoriasis in adults. Descriptive analysis was the method that journal used, search of online databases was conducted and found 12 relevant articles meeting criteria, published in English between 2014 and 2024, focusing on patients with moderate to severe psoriasis receiving NB-UVB phototherapy. Our review found that NB-UVB phototherapy, whether used alone or in combination with adjuvants, effectively treats moderate to severe psoriasis vulgaris in adult patients. Combining NB-UVB with adjuvants can further improve its effectiveness. However, further research is needed to assess its effectiveness across different age groups and to optimize treatment strategies based on individual patient characteristics and disease severity.

Abstract

Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a permanent disorder in the development of movement and posture in children. One of the movement problems in children with CP is stiffness of the soleus muscle which results in a tiptoe position. This position will make it difficult for the child to stand and walk, thereby reducing the child's functional and movement abilities. This research was conducted to determine the effect of providing foot core stability training therapy on increasing the range of motion of the ankle dorsi flexion joint and increasing the functional ability to walk in children with CP. This research is a field experimental one group pre and post test design. The sample was 15 children with CP at the AzZaki inclusion foundation in Surabaya, who were given foot core stability exercise therapy intervention 10 times in a row for 10 days. The ankle dorsiflexion range of motion was measured with a gonometer and functional walking ability with GMFM (gross motor function measurement). Research Results is there was a mean increase in ankle LGS towards dorsi flexion of 3.2° (p=0.001) and a mean increase in walking ability with GMFM measurements of 11.2% (p=0.00).

Abstract

Currently, the development of the flow of exchange of goods in the global world is very fast, especially in the process of goods entering and exiting a country from another country, which requires a high level of supervision to be able to record and select existing goods. This causes problems related to the circulation of counterfeit drugs or have been modified or counterfeited using trademarks that are well-known in the community and have hazardous impacts on health. Bioterrorism is a real threat that must be anticipated and acted upon carefully. The method implemented in this research uses qualitative methodology using a phenomenological approach. Data collection techniques are carried out using literature studies and case studies that occur in the world community today. One of the bodies that supervises and takes action in the food and drug trade is the Food and Drug Supervisory Agency which has the authority to carry out the withdrawal of marketing permits for companies. On this occasion, researchers would like to take a deeper look at cases of counterfeiting and modification of medicines containing dangerous ingredients in their application from the perspective of asymmetric warfare using the threat of bioterrorism in the field of national defense and the actions that need to be taken to deal with the threat of bioterrorism, especially in Indonesia.

Abstract

Patient satisfaction is when hospital services meet patients' needs, desires, or expectations. The government must promote everyone's right to health information and education, especially in hospitals, and guarantee comprehensive health services based on Minister of Health Regulation Number 004 of 2012 for optimal, effective, efficient, integrated, and sustainable hospital health services. The study was carried out using quantitative methods. Primary data was collected through questionnaires from patients at Royal Prima Medan Hospital, and 180 samples were obtained. Data was processed using SEM-PLS. The research results show that all hypotheses are accepted, and all variables have a positive and significant effect. The research results prove that implementing hospital health promotion helps improve the quality of health services (t-statistic value 7.294) and increase patient satisfaction (t-statistic value 4.419). Patients will be more loyal if their expectations are met from the health promotion carried out and the quality of service they perceive (t-statistic value 2.142). So, it can be concluded that government policy is appropriate in providing direction for hospitals to promote hospital health. Patients expect hospitals to have good service quality, cleanliness, and comfortable health facilities for patient satisfaction. Patients will be more loyal if their expectations are met, based on the perception of service quality and promotions carried out by the hospital, through the quality of personnel, and the empowerment of the community around the hospital.

Abstract

Worldwide, Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is the leading cause of chronic liver disease. Nutritional excess causes adipose depot enlargement and ectopic fat buildup, causing NAFLD. The Binahong plant (Anredera cordifolia) contains saponins, alkaloids, polyphenols, flavonoids, and mono polysaccharides like L-arabinose, D-galactose, L-rhamnose, and D-glucose, which have been shown to help NAFLD. The study examined the liver function and histopathology of male white Wistar rats fed high-fat diets after Binahong leaf extract was administered. Research approach/sample/population: Quantitative research employing lab or experiment formats. We sampled 24 white Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus). A high-fat diet was the precondition, Binahong leaf extract was the independent variable, and liver function and histological characteristics improved. The research approach begins with test animal acclimation, Binahong leaf extract extraction, phytochemical screening, treatment protocols, examination, and Histopathology preparations. Research data was processed with SPSS. The normality test shows a 2-tailed significance of 0.678 > 0.05, indicating regularly distributed data. SGOT 0.10 and SGPT 0.20 liver function analyses demonstrated homogeneity p values > 0.05. The research found that Binahong leaf extract (Anrederacordifolia Ten. Steenis) has 400mg/BW antioxidants and can restore liver function in high-fat livers.
