Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of consuming bitter melon juice on blood pressure in hypertensive patients in Jagamukti Village, Surade Health Center's working area. Hypertension is a non-communicable disease with a high prevalence that requires serious attention. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest design, involving 15 respondents selected using cluster sampling. Data were analyzed using parametric statistical tests with a T-test. The results showed that the average systolic blood pressure before the intervention was 151 mmHg, while after the intervention, it decreased to 145 mmHg. Statistically, there was a significant difference with a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05), indicating that bitter melon juice is effective in lowering blood pressure in hypertensive patients. Most respondents were female (60%) aged 46–55 years (66.7%), and the majority worked as housewives (60%). Bitter melon, rich in potassium and possessing diuretic effects, effectively lowers sodium levels in the blood, helping to reduce blood pressure. This study reinforces the potential of bitter melon as a safe and natural non-pharmacological intervention for hypertension. These findings are expected to encourage the use of herbal plants in the management of hypertension.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the relationship between family support and self-care management in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients undergoing hemodialysis at Sekarwangi Regional Public Hospital. A correlational research design with a cross-sectional approach was employed, involving 109 respondents. Data on family support were collected using the Perceived Social Support-Family (PSS-Fa) questionnaire, while self-care management was assessed using a self-care management scale. Descriptive and bivariate analyses were performed to analyze the data. The results indicated that 78.9% of respondents received good family support, and 91.7% demonstrated good self-care management. Statistical analysis using Fisher’s Exact Test showed a significant relationship between family support and self-care management (p = 0.019). Patients with good family support were more likely to have better self-care management (95.3%) compared to those with insufficient family support (21.7%). This study highlights the critical role of family support in enhancing patient confidence and adherence to self-care practices, which contributes to better management of CKD and improved quality of life. The findings suggest that strengthening family involvement in care could significantly improve the self-care management of CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis. Further interventions to enhance patient education and family support are recommended to optimize health outcomes for CKD patients.

Abstract

HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is an RNA class retrovirus that specifically attacks the human immune system. A decrease in the immune system in HIV-infected people facilitates various infections, which can lead to the onset of AIDS. AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) is a set of clinical symptoms and signs in people with HIV due to opportunistic infections due to a decrease in the immune system. Opportunistic infections can be caused by various viruses, fungi, bacteria, and parasites, and can attack various organs, including the skin, gastrointestinal tract / intestines, lungs, and brain. Infection of infants or children by HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is mostly transmitted vertically from mother to baby during pregnancy, childbirth, and through breast milk. Horizontal transmission through transfusion of blood products or other transmission such as child sexual abuse occurs less frequently than vertical transmission. A newborn baby from a mother with HIV-AIDS, accompanied by signs of infection in the baby, the patient's mother was found to be reactive on the HIV test and a decrease in CD4. Physical examination results on system examination were good. The results of laboratory support examinations obtained an increase in CRP and hypoglycemia. The diagnosis of infant with mother HIV-AIDS (BIHA) and neonatal infection was established based on the history, physical examination results and supporting examinations of the mother and baby that had been carried out. The patient received main therapy by giving antiretroviral prophylaxis in the form of zidovudine 4mg/kg/time, 2 times a day until the baby is 6 weeks old and antibiotics according to the diagnosis.

Abstract

Schizophrenia is a mental disorder characterized by distortion of reality, disorganization, and psychomotor poverty. Schizophrenia is characterized by positive symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, bizarre behavior and thought disorders and negative symptoms such as flat or blunted affect, alogia, anhedonia and deficits in social interaction. Schizophrenia disorders persist for at least six months and there must be at least one month of symptoms. Schizophrenia affects approximately 1% of the world's population. Although schizophrenia treatment can improve symptoms, it cannot restore normal function in most patients. Treatments that can be given to schizophrenia sufferers such as oral antipsychotics, especially second-generation such as risperidone, olanzapine, aripiprazole are recommended for initial treatment of acute psychosis. Case illustration is a 27-year-old male patient with complaints of hearing voices that cannot be heard by others and making it difficult for the patient to sleep. Management of this patient was given quetiapine 2x400 mg and lorazepam 1x1 mg. The result of this patient's management is an improvement in clinical symptoms. The conclusion of this case report is that paranoid schizophrenia is a case that is easy to relapse and can even become chronic, so it is necessary to do the importance of medication compliance, appropriate social support in order to improve social function in patients.

Abstract

Posterior capsular opacity (PCO), also known as after cataract, is a complication of cataract surgery that manifests as an opacity that persists or develops after extracapsular lens extraction. 1 The incidence of PCO varies widely in the literature, influenced by the type of intraocular lens (IOL) and patient risk factors. The standard treatment for PCO-related visual impairment is posterior capsulotomy using a neodymium-doped yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd: YAG) laser. Although PCO recurrence after initial treatment with YAG capsulotomy is more common in children, it is rare in adults. The underlying pathophysiologic mechanism is analogous to primary PCO, involving proliferation, migration, and/or clustering of lens epithelial cells (LECs), resulting in posterior aperture re-closure. A comprehensive review of recent literature has identified several potential risk factors for PCO recurrence, including younger age, female gender, high myopia, diabetes, vitrectomy status, uveitis, low diopter IOLs, and certain types of IOLs with higher water content.2A 69-year A 69-year-old male with a history of cataract surgery four years ago, a physical examination showing results within normal limits, and an ophthalmologic physical examination showing ODS virus 0.2, PH - NC, arcus senilis +/+, fibrosis type posterior lens opacity +/+, and IOL +/+ was identified. Funduscopic examination revealed a fundus reflex (+/+), diminished due to posterior lens opacities, with a macular reflex that was difficult to assess (+/+) and retinal degeneration (+/+). The diagnosis of ODS pseudophakia + PCO was established based on the patient's history, physical examination results, and supporting examinations of the mother and baby that had been carried out. According to the diagnosis, the patient was administered the primary pharmacological therapy of P Pred ED 6x1 drops in both eyes and the non-pharmacological therapy of Nd: YAG laser treatment in both eyes.

Abstract

Introduction : Adolescence is a phase where individuals experience emotional, psychosocial development and move towards a certain maturity. According to Media Sains Indonesia (2022), the consequences of premarital sexual relations, such as pregnancy at a young age, can bring physical, psychological and social risks for teenagers, including the possibility of abortion. Objectives: Research shows that 86% of students have held hands and hugged their partners, with 20% of these activities done voluntarily, and 34% engaging in sexual activities every time they meet. As many as 42% of respondents revealed that the most common places to engage in sexual activities are in boarding houses or hotels. Methods : Research design is a framework that provides clear guidance and direction for researchers during the conduct of research. The aim is to provide detailed instructions so that researchers can follow the research stages correctly. This research uses a descriptive quantitative approach with a design that includes observational analysis and applies a cross sectional approach. Results : The research results show that there is no relationship between the level of knowledge regarding premarital sexual behavior among students and female students at SMA PGRI 10 Glenmore. This result can be seen from the p value of 0.848, so (H0) in this study is accepted. Thus it can be concluded that the level of knowledge has no relationship with premarital sexual behavior. Conclusions : Analysis shows that out of 60 respondents with good knowledge, 5 respondents (8.2%) have a positive risk towards premarital sexual behavior, while 34 respondents (55.7%) have a negative risk. On the other hand, out of 10 respondents (16.4%) with less knowledge, 9 respondents (14.8%) showed a negative risk and 1 respondent (1.6%) showed a positive risk towards premarital sexual behavior. The statistical test using chi-square yielded a significant value of ρ = 0.848. Because the ρ-value is greater than 0.05, it can be concluded that there is no relationship between the level of knowledge and premarital sexual behavior.

Abstract

Unintended pregnancy (UP) among adolescents is a public health issue that affects physical, psychological, and social aspects. This study aims to explore the role of parents in the incidence of UP among adolescent girls in the working area of Puskesmas Sokaraja II, Banyumas Regency. The study employed a qualitative approach with a holistic case study design. The primary informants consisted of six adolescent girls who experienced UP, while the triangulation informants were healthcare professionals handling UP cases at Puskesmas Sokaraja II. Informants were selected using purposive sampling and snowball sampling, including adolescents who experienced UP and relevant healthcare professionals. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed four main themes: Permissive parenting contributes to risky behaviors due to a lack of parental supervision, limited reproductive health and sexuality education results in adolescents’ poor understanding of UP risks, low economic status restricts adolescents’ access to reproductive health services, and low self-confidence and susceptibility to environmental influences increase the risk of UP among adolescents.

Abstract

A stroke is defined as a neurological deficit attributed to an acute focal injury of the CNS (i.e., brain, retina, or spinal cord) by a vascular cause. Ischemic stroke is caused by disrupted cerebral blood flow due to thrombotic or embolic events. Stroke risk factors are classified into modifiable factors, such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, and smoking habits, and non-modifiable factors, such as age, gender, race/ethnicity, and genetic predisposition. This case report discusses a 60-year-old female patient presenting to the emergency department with right-sided body weakness, difficulty swallowing, slurred speech, and a history of uncontrolled hypertension. Physical examination revealed severe hypertension (216/106 mmHg), underweight nutritional status (BMI 17.24 kg/m²), motor weakness, and a positive Babinski reflex. A head CT scan showed infarction in the pons and left external capsule, consistent with a diagnosis of ischemic stroke due to small vessel occlusion. The patient was managed using the Code Stroke protocol, which included fluid administration, antihypertensives, neuroprotectors, and thrombolytic rTPA. Following therapy, clinical symptoms improved, with a reduction in the NIHSS score from 8 to 5, indicating a positive response. Patient education emphasized the importance of controlling risk factors such as hypertension and hypercholesterolemia and adherence to pharmacological treatments and lifestyle modifications. In conclusion, early diagnosis and the appropriate application of the Code Stroke protocol can enhance clinical outcomes, reduce morbidity and mortality, and prevent long-term complications in ischemic stroke patients. Ischemic stroke highlights the significance of an integrated multidisciplinary approach in stroke management.
