Abstract

Birth control has become a global issue of great importance in maintaining a balance between population growth and available resources. One contraceptive method that is often used is the IUD. The prevalence of IUD/AKDR family planning acceptors in Indonesia is 3.8 % and in Banten 6.09%. The IUD has been a major focus of long-term contraceptive research because of its high effectiveness, reversibility, and potential additional health benefits. The aim of the research was to determine factors related to WUS's decision to use an IUD. This type of quantitative research with a cross sectional design. The population in the study, namely women of childbearing age in the Maja Health Center Working Area, numbered 9,394 and a sample of 369 people using the cluster random sampling technique . Data analysis used univariate, bivariate ( chi square), and multivariate ( multiple logistic regression). The results of bivariate analysis showed that there was no relationship between age (p=0.405), parity (p=0.837), and occupation (p= 0.875) with WUS's decision to use an IUD. Meanwhile, education (p=0.004), knowledge (p=0.000), attitude (p=0.038), husband's support (p=0.035), and support from health workers (p=0.029) affected WUS' decision to use an IUD. The factor most related to WUS's decision to use an IUD is knowledge with OR= 9.591. The conclusion from this research is that the dominant factor related to the decision to use an IUD is knowledge. WUS should actively seek information through trusted sources such as consulting with medical personnel at community health centers or reading accurate health literature.

Abstract

Introduction: One of the factors that influences fine motor development is stimulation. Children who receive more stimulation will develop faster than those who rarely do (4). Some activities that can develop fine motor skills include puzzle games. One type of puzzle that is currently popular in children's environments because it is interesting and easy to get is diamond painting. Diamond painting is a drawing game on a canvas by attaching diamond-shaped beads to a pattern that is already available. This game can train children's fine motor skills because the child's fingers will move to attach the beads to the painting media, in addition it can improve eye, hand coordination, concentration, and increase imagination and creativity. Not only play therapy or the use of other learning media, it turns out that music therapy can also improve children's motor development. Innovation and modification of play therapy need to be done in developing learning media so that they can help stimulate the growth and development of preschool children. objective: to analyze the effect of a combination of diamond painting play therapy and music therapy on fine motor development in preschool children. Method: This study uses a mixed method design, namely combining quantitative and qualitative methods in a study with an Explanatory Design approach. Result: fine motor skills of children in the intervention group with a p value of 0.000 or <0.05, meaning that there is an effect after being given a combination of diamond painting play therapy and music therapy.

Introduction: Clove is well-known as an herbal plant that is also included in the spice group which is known to have an antibacterial activity spread across the stems, leaves, and flowers. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to identify the antibacterial compounds that are found in the methanol extract of clove stems and the antibacterial activity of clove stem extract against Bacillus cereus. Methods: We used Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) method to identify the antibacterial compounds, and used the paper disc method (Kirby Bauer) for antibacterial test with clove stem extract concentrations of 30%, 50%, and 70%, positive control of Amoxicillin at a dose of 0.5 mg/ml, also a negative control of sterile aquadest. Results: The results showed four antibacterial compounds in the extract, namely (+)-Licarin A, 4-O-Caffeoylquinic acid_1, Eckol, and Leucodelphinidin. Methanol extract of clove stems at the concentrations of 30%, 50%, and 70% inhibited the growth of Bacillus cereus significantly (p <0.05). The concentration of 30% was categorized as quite sensitive, meanwhile, both 50% and 70% were categorized as sensitive. Conclusions: In conclusion, four compounds with antibacterial properties were found in the methanol extract of clove stems based on LCMS analysis, and supported by the results of antibacterial tests which showed the formation of an inhibition zone in the clove stem extract against the growth of Bacillus cereus.
