Abstract

In children and adolescents, depressive symptoms often presenting as irritability, anhedonia, or behavioral changes. Despite significant advancements in survival rates due to improved therapeutic protocols, the psychological burden experienced by children with ALL.Objective: To evaluate the relationship between age and the presence of depressive symptoms in children diagnosed with ALL.Methods: A cross-sectional study was done using consecutive sampling with 40 children aged from 7 to 18 years old acquired, conducted from August to October 2024 at the outpatient unit of Adam Malik Hospital, Medan. Forty children aged 7–18 years with a confirmed diagnosis of ALL were included. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). Categorical variables were analyzed using the chi-square test, followed by bivariate to identify significant predictors of depression.Results: Among the 40 participants, the most age group were children ≤ 10 years old (65%). A statistically significant association was found between age group and the presence of depressive symptoms (p = 0.001, OR= 33,3). Conclusions: Age is significantly associated with the severity and presence of depressive symptoms in pediatric patients with ALL. Older children were more likely to report higher levels of depression. Psychological evaluation and targeted mental health support may be especially important in older age groups.

Abstract

Increasingly acknowledged for its ability to improve motor function and neuroplasticity in stroke therapy is motor imagery (MI) training. Variability in techniques and results, however, calls for a methodical assessment to combine the data. Objective: The goal of this study was to assess whether MI training will help stroke patients achieve better motor performance and other rehabilitation results. Method: After a thorough search across five databases using PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library in line with PRISMA criteria, we took ten works published between 2023 and 2025 under consideration. Resulting in 578 entries and Ultimately 10 studies were included in the review. methodological quality was assessed using JBI critical assessment techniques. Result:Ten research were examined and MI-based therapies clearly improved upper limb function, neuroplasticity, and attentional control. MI with BCI showed improved cortical activation, brain connection, and muscular strength. In severe cases especially, MI combined with TMS enhanced motor recovery. Furthermore, MI training enhanced with virtual reality or voice direction improved psychological well-being and daily life activities. Conclusion: MI-based treatments—especially in conjunction with cutting-edge technologies—effectively enhance motor and cognitive performance in stroke victims. To maximise clinical use, future studies should standardise procedures, investigate reasonably priced delivery strategies, and evaluate long-term advantages.

Abstract

The life of families caring for members with leukemia can be disrupted due to the high burden of care, thus risking a decrease in quality of life. This study aims to analyze the relationship between coping strategies and burden of care with the quality of life of families with leukemia at the Banda Aceh City Shelter. The study used a cross-sectional design with a total of 55 respondents taken through a total sampling technique from five shelters. Data collection was carried out through interviews using questionnaires from August 10 to September 10, 2023. Data analysis was carried out bivariately and multivariately using ordinal logistic regression. The results showed that 56.36% of respondents had a poor quality of life. Coping strategies, burden of care, social support, self-efficacy, education, employment, income, gender, and age were related to quality of life, while marital status was not. Respondents with low quality of life used more emotional focused coping strategies (65.85%) than problem focused coping (28.57%) (OR=4.82; p=0.020). In addition, heavy caregiving burden increases the risk of poor quality of life up to 11 times (OR=11; p=0.007). Multivariate analysis showed that the most dominant factor was family income. Therefore, the use of halfway houses is highly recommended to reduce the economic burden of cancer patients' families.

Abstract

The use of digital electronic devices is increasingly widespread among students, both in academic and non-academic contexts, but this can have negative impacts such as Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS). This study aims to analyze the comparative risk factors for CVS in digital-based elementary school students in Banda Aceh City and conventional-based students in Aceh Besar Regency. The study used a cross-sectional design with a total of 64 respondents using Simple Random Sampling technique, consisting of 32 students from each school. Data were collected between 15–30 August. The analysis was carried out using the Mann-Whitney U test, Independent Sample t-test, and logistic regression. The results showed a higher prevalence of CVS in digital-based students (75%) than in conventional. The average time of using electronic devices in the digital group was 8 hours/day, higher than the conventional group (5 hours/day). There was a significant difference in the duration of electronic device use between the two groups (p=0.0001). The most dominant factor associated with CVS was the duration of digital electronic device use in a day (OR=2.05; 95% CI=1.41–2.99; p=0.0001). This study emphasizes the importance of regulating the time of digital device use in children.

Abstract

Exclusive breastfeeding is very important for infant health, but its coverage in Indonesia is still low. One of the causes is the lack of knowledge of mothers about the importance of exclusive breastfeeding. This study aims to describe the level of knowledge of mothers about exclusive breastfeeding in the Kartasura Health Center Working Area and analyze the factors that influence it. This method uses a quantitative descriptive research design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 51 mothers with babies aged 0-24 months, selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through a questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability, then analyzed univariately. The results showed that 51% of respondents had sufficient knowledge, 31.4% low, and 17.6% good. Contributing factors include age, education, occupation, number of children, and age of the last child. Higher education is associated with better knowledge. This conclusion shows that there are still many mothers with low levels of knowledge about exclusive breastfeeding, so more intensive health education and interventions are needed. Socialization and counseling by health workers are expected to increase the success of exclusive breastfeeding.

Abstract

Hypertension is a high-risk non-communicable disease and is known as a "silent killer" because it often does not show clear symptoms. Coastal communities in Pidie Jaya Regency face various challenges in accessing health services, including economic, cultural, and geographical limitations, which affect their behavioral patterns in seeking treatment. This study aims to understand the behavioral patterns of coastal communities in accessing health services for hypertension treatment and the factors that influence it. This study uses a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis based on case studies. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews with 27 informants, consisting of hypertension sufferers, families, health workers, and village heads in five coastal sub-districts of Pidie Jaya Regency. The majority of people are more familiar with the term "high blood pressure" than "hypertension" and tend to choose traditional medicine over medical treatment. Awareness of routine check-ups is still low, and access to health facilities is influenced by economic factors and transportation limitations. Culture-based health education, increasing access to health services, and improving drug distribution systems are needed to increase awareness and compliance of coastal communities in managing hypertension.

Abstract

Stunting remains a significant public health issue with long-term effects on the growth and development of children, particularly in regions with limited access to health resources. Various factors such as economic status, parenting practices, and access to health facilities contribute to its prevalence. This study aims to analyze the determinants influencing stunting among children under five years old in Sambane Village, Langgudu District, Bima Regency. A cross-sectional approach was used with data collected from 50 respondents through questionnaires. Statistical analysis using the Chi-Square test was conducted to examine the relationship between independent variables—namely economic status, water source, toilet type, mother's body mass index (BMI), mother's education, mother's occupation, mother's age, child vaccination status, and frequency of posyandu visits—and the prevalence of stunting. The findings revealed that economic status (χ² = 36.11, p < 0.001), water source (χ² = 29.17, p < 0.001), toilet type (χ² = 34.38, p < 0.001), maternal education (χ² = 36.11, p < 0.001), and maternal occupation (χ² = 25.69, p < 0.001) were significantly associated with stunting. These results highlight that strengthening socioeconomic conditions and improving access to basic health facilities are critical strategies in stunting prevention efforts.

Abstract

Kuaspadu herbal drink, consisting of turmeric, tamarind, gotu kola, and honey, is a traditional Indonesian remedy commonly used as an alternative treatment for various ailments. The combination of ingredients has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Turmeric contains curcumin, which may inhibit the excessive release of prostaglandins in uterine tissue, reducing uterine contractions. Tamarind has flavonoids with analgesic effects, gotu kola contains triterpenoids that improve blood circulation and relax the uterus, and honey has flavonoids similar to those found in mefenamic acid, providing a natural pain-relief effect. This study aimed to determine the effect of Kuaspadu herbal drink on reducing menstrual pain in female adolescents. This research used a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pre-test and post-test approach. A total of 52 female adolescent participants were involved. Each participant was given 150 ml of Kuaspadu herbal drink every morning after breakfast for three consecutive days during menstruation. The level of menstrual pain was measured before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The statistical analysis showed a significant decrease in menstrual pain after consuming Kuaspadu herbal drink, with a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05). This indicates that the herbal drink had a positive effect in reducing menstrual pain among the participants. Kuaspadu herbal drink is effective in reducing menstrual pain in female adolescents and can be considered a natural alternative for managing dysmenorrhea.
