Abstract

Introduction:Stunting remains a major public health issue in Indonesia, including in the working area of UPTD Puskesmas H.A.H Hasan Binjai. Mothers’ perceptions and feeding practices are critical determinants influencing child growth and nutritional status. Understanding how mothers perceive the direct and indirect causes of stunting is essential to develop effective, culturally appropriate interventions at the community level. Methods:This study employed a qualitative exploratory design to explore mothers’ perceptions of stunting determinants. In-depth interviews were conducted with eight informants, comprising five mothers of toddlers, one community health volunteer, one village midwife, and one nutrition officer. Data were analyzed thematically through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing following the Miles and Huberman framework. Results:The findings indicated that most mothers had limited understanding of nutrition, emphasizing food quantity rather than quality. Exclusive breastfeeding practices were suboptimal due to misconceptions that watery breast milk lacks nutrition. Complementary feeding (MP-ASI) was monotonous and low in animal protein. Indirect determinants such as unstructured parenting, limited family support, and poor economic conditions contributed to stunting risk. The main barriers identified were economic hardship, time limitations, and limited access to health services. Mothers with positive perceptions demonstrated more consistent preventive behaviors, such as exclusive breastfeeding, providing diverse complementary foods, and active participation in community health programs. Conclusions:Mothers’ perceptions significantly influence stunting prevention behaviors. Low nutritional literacy, cultural beliefs, and economic challenges remain key barriers. Effective prevention efforts require family-based and culturally tailored nutrition education supported by community health cadres to enhance maternal understanding and sustainable child health practices. Keywords:Mothers’ perception, stunting, prevention

Abstract

Introduction: Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is an idiopathic condition characterized by chronic inflammation of the digestive tract. The prevalence of IBD in Southeast Asia has increased from 103,000 cases in 2017 to approximately 118,000 cases in 2020. Diet plays a crucial role in the development and progression of IBD. Polyphenols, bioactive compounds in plant-based foods, interact with molecular targets to inhibit inflammation and protect against oxidative stress. Additionally, polyphenols modulate the gut microbiota, promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria. Objectives: The study aimed to review the effects of polyphenols from various food sources in reducing inflammation and enhancing gut microbiota diversity as a potential therapeutic approach for IBD. Methods: This study used a literature review method, analyzing experimental in vivo studies. Data were collected by searching for published articles in ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and PubMed. Results: Eight studies were identified discussing the role of polyphenols in IBD. Polyphenols from various sources, including camellia oil, EGCG from green tea, resveratrol, kiwi polyphenol extract, curcumin, luteolin, bee pollen, and flavonoids, were found to have positive effects on modulating gut microbiota composition and reducing inflammation in animal models of IBD. Conclusions: Polyphenols have potential as a therapeutic agent for IBD by inhibiting inflammation and promoting gut microbiota diversity.

Abstract

Introduction: Stretch marks are a common complaint among pregnant women caused by excessive skin stretching. Approximately 90% of women experience stretch marks, particularly during the third trimester of pregnancy. The World Health Organization (2020) reported that out of 300,900 pregnant women globally, around 198,000 (66%) had stretch marks. In Indonesia, data from the Household Health Survey (SKRT) in 2018 showed that 67.4% of 1,000 pregnant women experienced striae gravidarum. A preliminary study at BPM Affah Fahmi found that out of 76 pregnant women observed within one week, 35 (46%) had stretch marks. Objectives: This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the combination of coconut oil and lime in reducing stretch marks among pregnant women in their second and third trimesters. Methods: The research method used was pre-experimental with a one-group pre-test post-test design. The sample consisted of 32 randomly selected pregnant women. The treatment was administered for two months, with coconut oil applied in the morning and lime in the evening. The Atwal method was used to assess the number of stretch mark lines. Data were analyzed using the paired t-test. Results: The results of the paired t-test showed a p-value of <0.05, indicating a significant difference in the number of stretch marks before and after treatment. Conclusions: This study concludes that the use of coconut oil and lime is effective in fading stretch marks. It is recommended that healthcare providers educate pregnant women about this natural and affordable skincare method. Keywords: Stetch mark, striae gravidarum, coconut oil, lime

Abstract

A periodic and continuous lack of sleep can have a direct impact on the health of the elderly. Both pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies can be utilized to treat poor sleep quality in this population. Progressive Muscle Relaxation and Foot Massage are relaxation therapies that are often utilized to address poor sleep quality among the elderly. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of a combination of progressive muscle relaxation and foot massage on improving sleep quality in the elderly. The research design used was pre-experimental, with a sampling method used purposive sampling and 20 respondents. The instrument used was the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The results showed that before the combined therapy was administered, all respondents experienced poor sleep quality. After the combined therapy was given to the respondents seven times over one week, all respondents experienced good sleep quality. Wilcoxon pre-test and post-test showed a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.000 < 0.05, indicating that the research hypothesis was acknowledged. Therefore, the combination of progressive muscle relaxation and foot massage had a significant effect on improving sleep quality in the elderly. This therapy is recommended to be carried out routinely and further studied to explore other variables and factors that affect sleep quality in the elderly.

Abstract

Introduction: The incidence of breast cancer in Indonesia in 2020 showed 68,858 new cases, which contributed 16.6% of the total 396,914 new cancer cases overall. The WHO recommends cancer prevention as an essential component of all cancer control plans. Early detection through breast self-examination (BSE) is one of the recommended methods to reduce breast cancer mortality. However, awareness and practice of BSE among Indonesian women remain low. Several determinants of breast self-examination behavior have been identified, including family history, knowledge, attitudes, and family support. The purpose of this study is to analyze the dominant factors related to BSE behavior in female students at SMAN 1 Asembagus. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional method with a sample of 62 respondents drawn using a stratified sampling technique. The instrument used was a questionnaire. Data analysis used the chi-square test and multiple logistic regression. Results: Family history, knowledge, attitude and family support were proven to have a statistical relationship with the self-examination behavior of female students of SMAN 1 Asembagus with p values of 0.002; 0.000; 0.000; 0.044. The results of the multivariate test showed that family support was the dominant factor with an OR of 6.7 times the risk of performing self-examination. Conclusions: Family history, knowledge, attitude, and family support factors have a statistically significant relationship with BSE behavior in female students of SMAN 1 Asembagus. The dominant factor related to BSE behavior in female students of SMAN 1 Asembagus is the family support factor with the largest OR among other factors, namely 6.7. Nurses as health workers have a strategic role in educating and empowering families to provide optimal support, both emotionally, instrumentally, in terms of information, and through assessment.

Abstract

Introduction: TURP procedure is recommended to treat symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) indicated for surgery. Irrigation method is the main factor in the success and evaluation of TURP syndrome. There is no ideal irrigation fluid or consensus result of the best irrigation fluid for TURP. Several irrigation materials have been developed related to effectiveness and cost considerations. Demineralized drinking water is an alternative for bladder irrigation of patients with TURP. The purpose of this study was to analyze the use of demineralized drinking water on serum electrolyte levels in patients before and after TURP. Methods: Using the pre-experiment method with a pre-post-test one group design approach, samples were selected using a purposive sampling technique of 15 respondents, analysis using the Wilcoxon signed ranks test. Results: The results of the univariate analysis showed that almost all respondents received an irrigation volume of 20 liters (93.3%), most respondents were irrigated for 60 minutes (73.3%). The sig.(2-tailed) value of serum Sodium 1.00 > 0.05, Potassium 0.655 > 0.05, and Chloride 0.655 > 0.05, showed no significant difference in the average results of serum electrolyte examination between pre and post-test. Conclusions: There is no effect of using demineralized drinking water as a bladder irrigation fluid in TURP procedures on serum electrolyte levels in BPH patients. The results of this study provide a strong basis for considering the use of demineralized drinking water as an option in clinical practice for bladder irrigation in TURP procedures.

Abstract

Introduction: Nutritional problems among children under five in coastal areas remain relatively high, partly due to limited access to animal-based protein sources. On the other hand, the potential of marine resources has not been optimally utilized, including grouper fish scales (Epinephelus sp.), which are rich in protein, calcium, and collagen. The innovation of processing these wastes into complementary feeding (MP-ASI) stock powder holds potential as both a nutritional solution and an environmental management strategy. This study aims to analyze the effect of balanced nutrition education on mothers’ knowledge, perceptions, and intentions regarding the use of grouper fish-scale-based MP-ASI stock powder. Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the effect of balanced nutrition education on mothers’ knowledge, perceptions, and intentions regarding the use of grouper fish-scale-based MP-ASI stock powder. Methods: This research employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test–post-test approach involving 30 mothers with children aged 6–24 months in Mekar Jaya Village, Konawe Regency, Southeast Sulawesi. A structured questionnaire was used to measure knowledge, perception, and intention, with prior validity and reliability testing (Cronbach’s alpha ≥0.70). Data were analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, Levene’s homogeneity test, paired t-test, Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and Pearson correlation test. Results: The findings demonstrated a significant improvement in knowledge (p<0.001), perception (p<0.001), and intention (p<0.001) after the educational intervention. Correlation analysis revealed positive associations between knowledge and perception (r=0.52; p=0.004), knowledge and intention (r=0.47; p=0.009), and perception and intention (r=0.61; p<0.001). Conclusions: Balanced nutrition education is effective in enhancing knowledge, fostering positive perceptions, and encouraging mothers’ intention to use grouper fish-scale-based MP-ASI stock powder. This study is relevant as a foundation for developing nutrition education strategies and food innovations based on local potential to support the improvement of child nutrition in coastal areas.
