Abstract

Background : Although preeclampsia screening can be conducted through measurements of MAP and BMI, the incidence of preeclampsia at the Kanor Community Health Center remains relatively high, at 15.77%. This places the Kanor district in fifth place among the highest rates in Bojonegoro, where hypertensive disorders remain the leading cause of maternal mortality at 42.86%. This situation highlights the need for further investigation into the relationship between MAP and BMI as part of early detection efforts. Preeclampsia screening is conducted by health workers by determining the Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) value and Body Mass Index (BMI) status. The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) and Body Mass Index (BMI) and the incidence of preeclampsia among pregnant women in their third trimester in the service area of the Kanor Community Health Center, Bojonegoro Regency, in 2025. Method : The design used is quantitative research with a Prospective Cohort study approach. The sampling technique used Cluster Random Sampling. The population in this study were 52 third trimester pregnant women in the Kanor Community Health Center working area in March - May 2025. The instrument to collect data in this study used primary data in the form of a blood pressure measuring device (Sphygmomanometer), observation sheets and secondary data (KIA book). Result : Before conducting the correlation test, a normality test was performed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, which yielded a p-value 0.000 (the data were not normally distributed). Therefore, Spearman’s Rho was used to analyze the relationship between Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) and Body Mass Index (BMI) and the incidence of Preeclampsia. The results indicate 2 hypotheses : a significant relationship exists between MAP value and the incidence of Preeclampsia with a p-value = 0.000 (Sig. p <0.05) correlation coefficient = 0.544 and there is a relationship between BMI status and the incidence of Preeclampsia with a p-value = 0.002 (Sig. p <0.05) and correlation coefficient = 0.424. Both variables exhibited a positive correlation, meaning that the higher the MAP value (>90 mmHg) and the higher the body mass index (obesity), the greater the risk of preeclampsia in pregnant women in the third trimester. Conclusion : Based on the results of the study, pregnant women are expected to periodically check blood pressure and weight gain according to gestational age by routinely doing antenatal care at the nearest health facility.

Abstract

Background: Sleep quality is one of the important factors that plays a role in the growth and development of preschool children. Disturbances in children's sleep quality can affect physical, cognitive, emotional, and behavioural development. One factor suspected to influence children's sleep quality is parenting style. Appropriate parenting can help in the formation of healthy sleep habits in children. Objective: This study aims to determine the relationship between parenting styles and the sleep quality of preschool children. Methods: This study used a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. The study sample consisted of 34 respondents who have preschool children, selected using a total sampling technique. Data on parenting styles were collected using the PSDQ, while children's sleep quality was measured using the PSQI, which had been modified according to the characteristics of children. Data analysis was conducted univariate and bivariate using Fisher’s exact test. Results: The study results showed that most respondents applied a democratic parenting style, with 28 respondents (82.4%), while the permissive parenting style was applied by 6 respondents (17.6%). Most preschool children had bad sleep quality, with 20 respondents (58.8%). Bivariate analysis results indicated a significant relationship between parental parenting style and preschool children's sleep quality, with a p-value of 0.031 (<0.05). Conclusion: There is a relationship between parenting styles and the sleep quality of preschool children. Directed, consistent, and responsive parenting plays a role in supporting better sleep quality for children. Education for parents regarding parenting styles and healthy sleep habits needs to be enhanced as an effort to optimally support child growth and development.

Abstract

Background: The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a global development agenda comprising 17 goals and 169 targets. One of the SDG targets by 2030 is to reduce the maternal mortality rate (MMR) to less than 70 per 100,000 live births. Globally, the MMR has decreased by 34% from 2000 to 2020; however, it remains high and has not yet met the target. One of the factors influencing MMR is the nutritional status of pregnant women. Indonesia ranks fourth in the world for the prevalence of chronic energy deficiency (CED) among pregnant women, with a rate of 35.5%. In the Special Region of Yogyakarta, Bantul Regency recorded the highest number of CED cases in 2021, with 1,432 cases. In 2023, Pajangan Public Health Center reported the highest number of CED cases in Bantul. This study aims to determine the relationship between husband support and pregnant women's knowledge of nutrition in the working area of Pajangan Public Health Center, Bantul Regency. Methods: This research used an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 70 pregnant women were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using a validated and reliable questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using the Fisher-Freeman-Halton Exact Test. Results: The Fisher test revealed a significant association between husband support and pregnant women's knowledge of nutrition (p-value < 0.05). Conclusion: Husband support plays an important role in increasing pregnant women's nutritional knowledge. Therefore, nutritional interventions during pregnancy should involve husbands to support maternal and fetal health.

Abstract

Background: Urinary tract infection is frequently encountered during pregnancy and is associated with an increased risk of maternal and perinatal complications, including pyelonephritis, preterm delivery, and low birth weight. Physiological urinary stasis during pregnancy may predispose women to infection, particularly when combined with modifiable behavioral and obstetric factors. Objective: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of urinary tract infection and to describe maternal risk factors associated with its occurrence during pregnancy. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 64 pregnant women attending antenatal care. Data were collected through structured interviews and urine dipstick examination. Variables included maternal characteristics, gestational age, obstetric history, behavioral factors, and body mass index. Descriptive univariate and bivariate analyses were performed. Results: Urinary tract infection was identified in 34.4% of participants. Higher proportions were observed among women in the third trimester of pregnancy, multigravida women, and those with a previous history of urinary tract infection. Obesity, inadequate daily fluid intake, higher frequency of sexual intercourse, and inappropriate vulvar hygiene practices were also commonly identified among affected participants. Conclusion: Urinary tract infection remains common during pregnancy and is associated with identifiable obstetric and behavioral factors. Early detection through routine urine screening and targeted counseling during antenatal care may help reduce infection-related maternal and perinatal complications.
