Abstract

Introduction: Dysmenorrhea is a common gynecological problem among female adolescents that affects academic performance, daily activities, and quality of life. Non-pharmacological interventions such as warm compresses and lavender aromatherapy are considered safe and practical alternatives for pain relief. Objectives: This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of warm compresses and lavender aromatherapy in reducing menstrual pain among female adolescents. Methods: A quasi-experimental study with a non-equivalent pretest–posttest control group design was conducted from January to March 2025 at SMK Puspa Bangsa, Banyuwangi. A total of 40 students with a history of dysmenorrhea were selected using proportionate stratified random sampling and divided into two groups: warm compress (n = 20) and lavender aromatherapy (n = 20). Pain intensity was measured before and after the interventions using a validated Numeric Rating Scale. Data were analyzed using paired t-tests for within-group differences and independent t-tests for between-group comparisons. Results: The warm compress group showed a significant reduction in menstrual pain with a greater mean difference than the lavender aromatherapy group. While both interventions were effective, the warm compress group experienced a more pronounced decrease in pain intensity. Independent t-test results confirmed a significant difference in mean pain reduction between the two groups (p-value = 0.000; α<0.05). Conclusions: Warm compresses were more effective than lavender aromatherapy in reducing dysmenorrhea among female adolescents. Warm compresses can be recommended as a simple, safe, and cost-effective non-pharmacological strategy, while lavender aromatherapy may serve as a supportive approach providing relaxation and psychological comfort.

Abstract

Introduction: Body composition, including fat and lean mass, is recognized as a critical factor influencing physical fitness and cardiovascular health. Traditional measures such as body mass index do not distinguish fat from muscle and may misrepresent cardiometabolic risk. Objectives: This review analyzed recent evidence on the relationship between body composition, physical fitness, and cardiovascular risk to inform more accurate approaches to screening and prevention. Methods: A literature search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar for studies published between January 2020 and December 2025. Eligible studies included original articles, systematic reviews, or meta-analyses on adults. Titles, abstracts, and full texts were screened with inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were extracted on study design, population, body composition methods, outcomes, and key findings. Narrative synthesis was performed. Results: Eight studies were included. Large cross-sectional analyses showed strong associations between body composition indicators, visceral fat, fat percentage, and lean mass, with blood pressure, lipid profile, and glucose regulation. Southeast Asian studies highlighted links between higher body fat, reduced physical activity, and increased cardiometabolic risk. Research in Brazil and the United States indicated that inflammatory markers and diet modified the relationship between adiposity and cardiovascular risk. Smaller studies emphasized the protective role of lean mass and physical activity, including technology-based exercise, on fitness and body composition outcomes. Conclusions: Body composition is a more accurate determinant of physical fitness and cardiovascular risk than body mass index. Integrating body composition analysis into clinical and public health practice could improve risk stratification and guide personalized preventive strategies.

Abstract

Introduction: Malaria is a parasite illness that continues to pose a global health challenge, largely because of the rise of medication resistance. Researchers are concentrating on discovering novel medicines that specifically target critical parasite proteins to address this issue. The peels of Hylocereus polyrhizus (dragon fruit) contain betalains which exhibit antiplasmodial activity. This research examines the efficacy of six betalaines derived from H. polyrhizus peels in inhibiting specific Plasmodium falciparum proteins through in silico techniques. Methods: The protein structures were acquired from the Protein Data Bank (PDB) and processed by eliminating non-protein molecules. The 3D structures of the betalaine ligands were obtained from PubChem and optimized with Avogadro 1.2.0. Using the Pyrx 0.8 system with Autodock Vina, the ligands were docked to the proteins. The research assessed ADMET characteristics of the ligands utilizing the SwissADME and ProTox-II platforms, respectively. Results: The molecular docking data indicate that Phyllocactin had the highest binding affinity of -10.7 kcal/mol to PfPNP. Hylocerenin had the highest binding affinity to PfDHFR-TS at -9.4 kcal/mol. The investigation of amino acid interactions indicated that Hylocerenin engages with essential residues, specifically Lys27 and Lys28, in PfDHFR-TS. Regarding ADMET characteristics, all six betalaines exhibited minimal gastrointestinal absorption and lacked permeability across the blood-brain barrier. Moreover, Hylocerenin was anticipated to be non-immunotoxic, presenting a notable benefit over other substances such as Betacyanin and Phyllocactin, which were forecasted to have immunotoxic effects. Conclusions: Hylocerenin and Phyllocactin are the most promising antiplasmodial possibilities among the examined betalaine compounds. Hylocerenin is a primary candidate for the inhibition of PfDHFR-TS, whereas Phyllocactin is a prominent candidate for the inhibition of PfPNP. The results indicate that betalaine compounds derived from H. polyrhizus peels merit more research as a novel category of antimalarial medicines

Abstract

Background: Hepatitis B is a liver infection caused by the hepatitis B virus that can lead to hepatocellular damage. Liver enzyme tests, namely Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase (SGOT) and Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase (SGPT), are used as important indicators in assessing the degree of liver damage. Objective: This study aimed to describe the levels of SGOT and SGPT in hepatitis B patients at Karsa Husada Hospital, Batu Malang, during the period of January–December 2024. Methods: This research employed a quantitative descriptive method using secondary data from medical records of 39 patients. Data analysis was conducted using univariate and bivariate approaches. Results: The results showed that elevated SGOT levels were found in 35 patients (89.7%), while normal levels were observed in 4 patients (10.3%). Elevated SGPT levels were observed in 27 patients (69.2%), while 12 patients (30.8%) had normal levels. Based on sex, elevated SGOT levels were more prevalent in males (23 patients, 95.8%) compared to females (12 patients, 80.0%), while elevated SGPT levels were also dominant in males (20 patients, 83.3%) compared to females (7 patients, 46.7%). Based on age groups, the highest elevated SGOT levels were found in adults (22 patients, 91.7%), followed by adolescents (7 patients, 87.5%) and elderly (6 patients, 85.7%). Correlation test results showed a coefficient value of r = 0.380 with p = 0.017 (p < 0.05). Conclusion: These findings indicate that the majority of hepatitis B patients experienced elevated SGOT and SGPT levels, with predominance among adult males, and there was a significant correlation between the two liver enzymes.

Abstract

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) remains a major global health challenge, with prevalence increasing both worldwide and in Indonesia, including Kendari City, Southeast Sulawesi. Preventive strategies that integrate community engagement and local food systems are urgently needed. Methods: This study employed a qualitative descriptive design to explore community experiences, perceptions, and involvement in diversifying scad fish into value-added products as a strategy for DM prevention. Research was conducted in Kendari with 32 participants, including health cadres, women’s groups, small and medium enterprise (SME) fish processors, and community leaders. Data collection methods consisted of in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, participant observation, and document review. Thematic analysis was applied using Miles and Huberman’s framework, supported by triangulation and member checking to ensure credibility. Results: Findings revealed that scad fish, though abundant and affordable, was underutilized due to low preference compared to other fish species. Through participatory processes, communities co-developed scad fish floss and crackers, which were widely accepted for their practicality, longer shelf life, and cultural compatibility. Mothers reported replacing sugary snacks with scad-based products, indicating positive dietary shifts, while SMEs and women’s groups gained new livelihood opportunities. Community involvement particularly by health cadres and local leaders was identified as the central factor ensuring acceptance, sustainability, and dissemination of the intervention. Conclusions: The diversification of scad fish into floss and crackers demonstrates a culturally relevant, sustainable, and community-driven approach to DM prevention. Beyond improving nutrition, this intervention also strengthens local economies and promotes social empowerment. The study provides a model for integrating health promotion with local food resources, offering implications for future community-based strategies in resource-rich settings.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Introduction : Non Communicable Diseases (NCD) has become a health problem community both globally, nationally, regionally and even locally. World Health Organization (WHO) in 2015 reported that NCD killed 40 million people every year or equivalent of 70% of deaths worldwide. One of disease classified as non communicable which is dangerous namely hypertension. Hypertension is an important factor as a trigger for Non Communicable Diseases (NCD) such as heart disease, stoke, and others which is currently the number one cause of death scourge in the world. Menopause is one of the triggers for hypertension. Method : This study aims to analyze the factors that affected the incidence of hypertension in menopause. The study uses 4 databases namely E-resources, EBSCO, DOAJ, and Google Scholar using criteria inclusion and exclusion. Data analysis used descriptive method by summarizing research journals. There are 13 journals used. Results : From 13 articles, it was found several factors that cause hypertension in menopause such as age, physical activity, food / beverage intake, stress, and obesity. Conclusion : At menopause, there is a decrease in estrogen secretion resulting in constriction of blood vessels (vasoconstriction) which can cause blood pressure to rise. Henceforth, it is hoped that the community, especially families and respondents, will be able to know more about their health conditions, especially blood pressure so that they can check more frequently and also be able to maintain their lifestyle

Abstract

Proses menua merupakan proses sepanjang hidup, tidak hanya dimulai dari suatu waktu tertentu, tetapi dimulai sejak permulaan kehidupan, salah satu hasil kesehatan di Indonesia adalah meningkatnya Usia Harapan Hidup (UHH). Tingginya UHH merupakan salah satu indikator keberhasilan pencapaian pembangunan nasional terutama di bidang kesehatan. Bertambahnya usia seseorang, mengakibatkan kecepatan metabolisme tubuh lansia sedikit menurun. Masalah gizi yang biasanya terjadi pada lansia yaitu gizi kurang dan gizi lebih. Ditemukan persentasi lansia yang tinggal di daerah perkotaan yang mengalami gizikurang adalah 3,4%, berat badan kurang 28,3% , berat badan lebih 6,7%, obesitas 3,4% dan berat badan ideal 42,4%. Bertambahnya usia tetap berpengaruh terhadap kemampuan beraktifitas. Penelitian ini merupakan studi pustaka (literature) yang ditinjau dari jurnal/artikel yang diteliti sebelumnya dan didapatkan 15 jurnal terbitan terbaru mulai tahun tahun 2014 – 2020 yang sesuai dengan topik penelitian yaitu tentang hubungan status gizi dengan kemampuan mobilisasi pada pasien lansia. Berdasarkan beberapa jurnal/artikel yang ditinjau, hasil dalam penelitian studi pustaka yaitu ada hubungan yang bermakna antara tingkat status gizi dengan kemampuan mobilisasi pada lansia, dimana status gizi yang baik akan memberikan kesehatan fisik pada lansia untuk melakukan aktivitas sehingga mobilisasi akan meningkat. Lansia yang memiliki status gizi kurang mengalami penurunan mobilitas fisik sehingga menyebabkan lansia sulit dalam melakukan aktivitas sehari-hari
