Abstract

Constipation is a common problem experienced by pregnant women, mainly caused by physiological changes during pregnancy, such as increased levels of progesterone which slow down intestinal peristalsis, as well as the pressure exerted by the growing uterus on the digestive tract. This condition often leads to abdominal discomfort, pain, and may interfere with the quality of life of expectant mothers if left untreated. One natural approach that can be utilized to alleviate constipation is the consumption of carrot juice. Carrots are rich in dietary fiber, water, vitamins, and minerals, all of which play an important role in maintaining a healthy digestive system. Regular intake of carrot juice is expected to improve bowel movement frequency, soften stool consistency, and help reduce constipation symptoms in pregnant women. In addition, carrot juice provides essential nutrients that support fetal growth and development. Therefore, the use of carrot juice can be considered a safe, simple, and nutritious alternative to support digestive health during pregnancy.

Abstract

Background: Osteosarcoma is a primary malignant bone tumor that commonly affects adolescents and young adults. Limb-salvage surgery has become a preferred approach over amputation, with various reconstruction techniques such as autologous cryosurgery and bone cement reconstruction. However, the comparative clinical outcomes of these methods remain a subject of ongoing investigation. Objective: This study aims to compare the clinical outcomes between autologous cryosurgery reconstruction and bone cement reconstruction in osteosarcoma patients. Methods: A retrospective cohort study with a post-test only control group design was conducted using medical records of osteosarcoma patients treated at H. Adam Malik Hospital, Medan, from January 2022 to December 2025. A total of 22 patients were included and divided into two groups: cryosurgery (n=11) and bone cement reconstruction (n=11). Clinical outcomes were evaluated using MSTS scores, relapse rates, and metastasis incidence. Statistical analysis was performed using appropriate comparative tests with a significance level of p<0.05. Results: The results showed no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of MSTS scores (p=0.51), relapse rates (p=0.06), and metastasis incidence (p=0.64). Although the bone cement group demonstrated slightly higher MSTS scores, the difference was not significant. Similarly, relapse and metastasis rates were comparable between groups. Conclusion: Autologous cryosurgery and bone cement reconstruction provide comparable functional and oncological outcomes in osteosarcoma patients undergoing limb-salvage surgery. Both methods can be considered viable reconstruction options, with selection tailored to patient condition, resource availability, and clinical considerations. Further studies with larger sample sizes and prospective designs are recommended.

Abstract

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DMT2) is a non-communicable disease that continues to experience an increase in cases and is a global and national health problem. Globally, the number of cases reached 537 million in 2023 and is expected to increase to 700 million by 2045. In Indonesia, 19.5 million cases were recorded in 2021. Meanwhile, in Gorontalo Province there are 10,735 patients in 2024, and in the North Toto Health Center there are 109 patients in 2025. The incidence of this disease is influenced by various risk factors, such as diet, physical activity, obesity, family history, and consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB). This study aims to analyze the relationship between these factors and the incidence of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Quantitative research type, analytical survey method with cross-sectional design. The total sample of 81 respondents was selected using accidental sampling techniques. Data collection was carried out using FFQ, GPAQ, and questionnaires that were compiled and validated by the researcher. The data was analyzed using the chi-square test to find out the relationships between variables. The results showed that diet (p=0.010), physical activity (p=0.000), obesity (p=0.002), and SSB consumption (p=0.037) were associated with the incidence of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, while family history was not related (p=0.227). There is a relationship between diet, physical activity, obesity, and consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) with the incidence of DMT2. On the other hand, the family history did not show a relationship with the incidence of DMT2 at the North Toto Health Center. It is recommended to the public to adopt a healthy diet, increase physical activity regularly, maintain an ideal weight, and limit the consumption of sweetened beverages to reduce the risk of DMT2.

Abstract

This study analyzes the conflict between traditional transportation and modern transportation operating at the Karang Baru Village Pier, Sumber Marga Telang District, Banyuasin Regency. The emergence of modern transportation with a more structured and efficient service system creates tension for traditional transportation actors who feel that there is a threat to the sustainability of their livelihoods. The conflicts that arise are not only related to aspects of operating space competition and tariff differences, but also concern changes in social interaction patterns and local economic structures. This study aims to identify the forms of conflict that occur and analyze the factors behind the emergence of these conflicts in the context of transportation service transformation. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews with traditional and modern transportation drivers, service users, village officials, and parties who have an interest in transportation management in the area. The results of the study show that the conflicts that occur can be explained through the Theory of Functional Conflict, where conflict is seen as a social mechanism that arises due to an imbalance of interests resulting in unequal access to passengers, changes in service structure, and the absence of regulations that are able to accommodate the interests of both parties. In addition, the economic condition of the community and dependence on the transportation sector reinforce the intensity of the prolonged conflict.

Abstract

Childbirth is a process of opening and thinning the cervix and uterine contractions occur, causing pain in the delivery process. Labor pain management can be applied non-pharmacologically, one of which is massage that aims to release endorphin compounds so as to reduce pain, reduce anxiety and meaningfully shorten labor time. The purpose of this study is to identify the effect of the massage method on labor pain during the first active phase. The research design used in this study is a quasy-experiment which is two group pretest-postest. The number of samples in this study was 38 people, of which 19 were intervention groups and 19 control groups, with simple random sampling techniques. The data analysis used was t-dependent and t-independent tests. The results of the study obtained the characteristics of the intervention group respondents, most of the respondents aged 24-29 years (42.1%), parity >2 children) as many as 8 people (42.1%), and the level of education was high school as many as 14 people (73.7%). Meanwhile, in the control group, most respondents aged 24-29 years were 7 people (36.8%), parity >2 children were 9 people (47.4%), and high school education level was 18 people (94.7%). The pain intensity in the intervention group before the intervention group averaged 7.26 and after the average was 4.74, while in the control group before the intervention group averaged 7.00 and after the average was 6.16. The results of the t-dependent test of pain intensity before and after the massage in the intervention group were obtained a value of P=0.000 and in the control group before and after the massage was obtained. The results of the independent t-test can be concluded that there is a significant difference after the mass method is carried out in the intervention group, namely the value of P=0.001. From the results of this study, it is known that there is an effect of the massage method on reducing the intensity of labor pain during the first active phase in inpartu mothers. Therefore, it is recommended that midwives apply the massage method as an intervention to reduce pain in the care of normal mothers.

Abstract

Nutritional status is one of the risk factors that can cause the incidence of tuberculosis. The income level of parents has a close relationship with economic status and will indirectly make TB transmission easier. Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that attacks the lungs and is caused by bacteria (Mycobacterium tuberculosis). This study aims to determine the relationship between nutritional status and parental income level to the incidence of pulmonary TB. This type of research is quantitative with a case control approach, the sample calculation in this study uses the total sampling technique using inclusion and exclusion criteria so that a sample of 17 controls and 17 cases is obtained. Then anthropometric measurements and interviews were carried out with parents of toddlers. Univrriat and bivariate analysis were carried out using the chi square test, with the help of SPSS 25.0 with p = 0.05. Based on the results of the study, the p value < 0.05 is the variable of TB/U nutritional status (p-value = 0.039, OR= 4.4, CI= 1.041-18.599). It is recommended to the Nutrition Officer of the Puskemas to increase the activity of screening nutritional status in children under five.

Abstract

The high number of anxiety cases, especially Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), in the Telaga Health Center's work area shows that anxiety is still a mental health problem that requires effective intervention in primary health services. One of the non-pharmacological efforts that can be applied is mindfulness therapy. This study aims to determine the effect of mindfulness therapy as an independent variable on the anxiety level of GAD patients as a dependent variable at the Telaga Health Center. This study uses a quasi experiment design with a pretest–posttest control group design. A total of 30 respondents were selected using purposive sampling techniques and divided into intervention groups and control groups. The independent variable was in the form of the administration of mindfulness therapy, while the dependent variable was the anxiety level of GAD patients measured using the GAD-7 questionnaire. Data analysis was carried out by the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The results showed that the administration of mindfulness therapy had a significant effect on reducing anxiety levels in the intervention group (p<0.05), while the control group showed no significant change (p>0.05). It was concluded that mindfulness therapy was shown to be effective in lowering the anxiety level of GAD patients. This intervention has the potential to be applied as a safe, simple, and applicable non-pharmacological alternative in primary health services, especially in health centers.

Abstract

The advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology in the form of humanoid robots (human-like robots) has led to numerous incidents and violations of criminal law, often caused by the actions of the humanoid robots themselves. This has given rise to debate among experts as to who is responsible for these violations. Indonesian Criminal Law stipulates that the subjects of criminal law are humans and legal entities. Meanwhile, the position of AI robots within the Indonesian legal framework (UU ITE) is as an 'electronic agent' which is an electronic system device controlled by an individual or institution/corporation. If examined more closely, technically, humanoid robots have almost the same capabilities as humans to think and move independently (autonomous) without being driven or by anyone. The concept of criminal law stipulates that to determine a crime must look at the element of the perpetrator's mental condition (mens rea). If a criminal offense is committed by a humanoid robot that does not have a natural mental condition, can it be categorized as a crime and who should be held responsible? Because there is no consensus yet on whether the subject of criminal law is appropriate to be assigned to humanoid robots, this study will discuss briefly and concisely the prospective position of humanoid robots as subjects of criminal law in Indonesia.
