Abstract

Introduction: Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) in a mother is considered a risk factor for congenital malformation, including congenital heart diseases. Many studies signify a five to six times increased frequency of congenital heart diseases in neonates born from insulin-dependent diabetic mothers. This study aimed to identify the spectrum of congenital heart diseases (CHDs) in neonates born from insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) mothers. Methods: Between April 2019 and March 2021, a descriptive cross-sectional study involved 120 consecutive neonates aged 0-28 days of mothers with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) at Maiwand Teaching Hospital, Kabul University of Medical Sciences. Neonates born to non-diabetic mothers were excluded. IDDM refers to mothers using Insulin upon admission to control blood glucose. CHD encompasses various heart defects affecting function. Family and maternal history were noted, focusing on health issues and delivery details. Neonatal mothers' ages ranged from 23 to 45 (mean 33), with diabetes onset spanning 2.5 to 25 years. Pediatric cardiologists conducted physical and echocardiographic exams. All CHD forms were documented using 2D echocardiography and Doppler studies (Sono Ace X-6 Machine). Result: 120 consecutive neonates born to mothers with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDMs) were investigated during the two-year study period. Of them, 18 (15%) had congenital heart abnormalities. The prevalence of solitary and multiple CHD was 66.6 percent (12 patients) and 33.3 percent (6 patients) in the 18 infants born from IDDMs. The most prevalent isolated defects were PDA (22.2%) and Ventricular septal defect (16.6%). The most common multiple CHDs (16.6 percent) were PDA and ASD. PDA + ASD (16.6%) and VSD + PDA were the most frequent correlations with CHD (11.1 percent). Conclusion: Maternal insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus is an important risk factor for congenital heart disease. Careful assessment and early diagnosis of CHD in this high-risk group are very important in a pediatric population. Expansion of prenatal screening programs for CHDs in mothers suffering from insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus is necessary.

Abstract

Introduction: Basic Health Research in 2018 stated Jember as a district with the third highest incidence of undernutrition in East Java. Undernutrition is a threat to future generations because it has short-term and long-term impacts that can be irreversible. This study aimed to determine the factors associated with undernutrition among children under five in Karangrejo Village, Jember Regency.Methods: This research used a cross-sectional method involving 94 mothers and children under five years old registered at Posyandu in Karangrejo Village who were selected by purposive sampling. The dependent variable included the sociodemographic factors of mothers and children and was obtained using a demographic questionnaire. The dependent variable, undernutrition, was determined based on weight-for-age and was obtained by plotting the child's weight on the WHO weight-for-age curve: 0-5 years (z score) according to the child's sex. Statistical tests used ordinal logistic regression tests.Results: There are some factors contributing to undernutrition, including the father's education in elementary school (p=0.002, OR=5.628), the number of children no more than two persons (p=0.038, OR=-2.546), a complete history of immunization (p=0.011, OR=-4.627), history of infection of ARI every month and every two months (p =0.001, OR= -3.897, -7.250) respectively, and the level of mother's knowledge about fulfilling children nutrition (p=0.000, OR= 5.593).Conclusions: This study suggests that raising parent education, complete immunization, and mothers' knowledge are recommended to prevent undernutrition among children. Furthermore, the outcome of this study re-emphasizes that educational activities regarding children's nutritional needs are still needed to improve mothers' knowledge. Keywords: children; contributing factors; undernutrition

Abstract

Introduction: The quality of life between housewives and career women facing chronic hepatitis B shows differences in coping abilities, and is influenced by several causal factors. This study aimed to explore the quality of life of housewives and career women experiencing chronic hepatitis B.Methods: This qualitative phenomenological study consisted of 14 women (seven housewives and seven career women) with chronic hepatitis B. The instruments used to collect information from participants were in-depth interviews about the supporting factors and coping mechanisms that influenced their quality of life. Participants were recruited using purposive sampling, and data were analyzed using the Colaizzi technique to describe the theme.Results: The results showed two major themes from the participants' answers: supporting factors and coping mechanisms. The sub-themes of partner support, family support, peer group support, and social community support made up the supporting factors. Meanwhile, coping mechanisms consisted of adaptive coping, improving knowledge, interacting with other people, problem-solving, and changing lifestyles and controlled routines. On the other hand, maladaptive coping caused participants to isolate, think negatively, grieve excessively, and show stress or depression symptoms.Conclusions: Housewives with chronic hepatitis B have a better quality of life than career women because they are more accepting and have better-coping mechanisms in facing this condition. The research study results can be implicated in nursing interventions to improve the coping abilities of women with chronic Hepatitis B. Keywords: chronic hepatitis B; coping mechanism; quality of life; supporting factors; women

Abstract

Introduction: Stunting, a form of chronic malnutrition, continues to increase annually in Indonesia, making it the third country with the highest prevalence of stunting in Southeast Asia. This study aimed to analyze what factors were most dominant that influenced family behavior toward stunting prevention in the Bangkalan Region. Methods: This research follows an analytical observational approach with a cross-sectional design. The study involved a sample size of 110 participants. Inclusion criteria for this study encompassed children aged 0-24 months residing with their mothers, mothers in good physical and mental health, and both children and mothers living in the Bangkalan district. The sampling technique involved multistage random sampling, followed by stratified sampling using a proportionate stratified random sampling method. Data collection was conducted using a questionnaire. Seven questionnaires are used: attitude, personal agency, knowledge, intention, behavior and environmental barrier. The distribution of questionnaires involved direct engagement with several field officers. The analysis technique employed in this study is partial least squares (PLS) using structural equation modeling (SEM).Results: We found three factors significantly influencing mothers' behavior in stunting prevention among habits (P-value 0.031; T 2.221), intentions and knowledge of mothers in stunting prevention (P-value <0.001; T 5.744). The extent of the mother's intention to prevent stunting was influenced directly by the mother's agency (P-value 0.044; T 2.399) and attitude regarding stunting (P-value <0.001; T 7.920).Conlusions: Intention is a direct influence driving factor for individuals to shape behavior, which is influenced by personal attitudes and beliefs. Effective stunting prevention strategy in children under two years is through the development of a stunting prevention behavior model for caregivers through improvements in attitudes, beliefs, norms, personal agencies, knowledge and skills to perform the behavior, intentions, and habits as a family empowerment effort to prevent stunting. Keywords: intentions; parenting; prevention; stunting

Abstract

Introduction: Excessive Gestational Weight Gain (GWG) is associated with various complications during pregnancy and childbirth. In contrast, digital interventions like telehealth offer cost-effective solutions with broader accessibility. Therefore, our outcomes are to analyze the effectiveness of telehealth interventions for healthy GWG among overweight and obese pregnant women and to know which features are needed in telehealth for healthier GWG.Methods: We undertook a systematic review to address the objectives mentioned above. Initially, we employed the keywords telehealth, pregnant women, and overweight, which were subsequently refined using Medical Subject Headings provided by the National Center for Biotechnology Information. To identify relevant articles, we searched six databases”Scopus, SAGE Journals, Web of Science, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and ProQuest.Results: We included 15 articles in this review according to the criteria. Eleven papers show a positive effect of telehealth in promoting healthy GWG. Telehealth encompasses various functionalities, such as providing information, push notifications, self-monitoring, and feedback features related to gestational weight gain (GWG), maintaining a healthy diet, engaging in physical activity, receiving reminders, managing stress, and setting goals. On the other hand, four papers show no significant difference between telehealth and regular interventions.Conclusions: Telehealth is alternatively effective to use as an additional intervention to promote healthier GWG in overweight pregnant women. Keywords: gestational weight gain; overweight; pregnant women; telemedicine

Abstract

Introduction: The lack of maternal nutritional literacy has a high impact on the health of stunted children. This can be overcome by providing information to the mother with the help of a mobile application. The purpose of this review is to identify and systematically analyze mobile application interventions on maternal nutritional literacy, including increasing knowledge, attitudes, and feeding practices in stunted children. Method: This systematic review was based on PRISMA, with inclusion criteria including samples of stunted children aged under 5 years, mobile application interventions, and measures of knowledge, attitudes, and practices. Most of the studies in this review utilized randomized controlled trial (RCT) designs. The literature search was conducted using multiple databases, including Scopus, Web of Science (WoS), EBSCO, ProQuest, and PubMed. The search was restricted to full-text articles published between 2018 and 2022. Results: There are 3 forms and media of mobile application interventions. This systematic review shows that mobile application interventions significantly improve maternal literacy related to increasing knowledge, attitudes, and practices in mothers with stunted children, the duration of mobile applications used in each session is 1 minute to 25 minutes per week. With application content on nutritional principles based on children's age, the introduction of appropriate complementary foods and semi-solid foods according to age, food diversity, and providing special supplementary foods and infant and child feeding training (IYCF). Conclusions: The form and media of application video intervention and counseling in mobile application intervention show a positive impact in increasing nutritional literacy in mothers including knowledge, attitudes, and feeding practices for stunted children under 5 years old. Keywords: mothers with stunted children; mobile application; nutritional literacy
