Abstract

Introduction: Nutritional status during the critical period of 6–24 months relies heavily on appropriate Complementary Feeding (MP-ASI), a practice directly modulated by maternal health literacy. Objective: This study analyzed the correlation between maternal knowledge levels and complementary feeding patterns with the nutritional status of children aged 6–24 months in Central Lombok Regency. Method: This cross-sectional study involved 73 mothers selected via consecutive sampling in the Penujak Public Health Center area. Maternal knowledge and feeding patterns were assessed using validated questionnaires, while nutritional status (Length-for-Age) was derived from secondary data. Data were analyzed using the Spearman’s rho test. Result and Discussion: Stunting prevalence was critically high at 57.5%. Most mothers (50.7%) had 'moderate' knowledge. Bivariate analysis revealed a significant positive correlation between maternal knowledge and nutritional status (r=0.297; p=0.011). Furthermore, a moderately strong correlation was found between complementary feeding patterns and nutritional status (r=0.531; p<0.001). Conclusion: Complementary feeding practices serve as a stronger determinant of nutritional status than knowledge alone. Interventions must shift from passive education to operational strategies, such as cooking demonstrations of local menus and the reactivation of Toddler Mothers’ Classes (Kelas Ibu Balita) to improve practical feeding skills.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by high blood glucose levels (hyperglycemia) due to impaired insulin secretion. From the nursing model, according to Jean Watson, nursing interventions are applied with ten characteristic factors. This article aims to improve the quality of the nurse-client relationship through the process of caring, encouraging holistic healing, both physical and spiritual. The method in the concept of Jean Watson's model theory is the quantitative method. Assess the perception of caring nurses or patients using quasi-experimental surveys. The impact on nurses Jean Watson's nursing intervention findings significantly improved empathy and humanity, nurses' emotional well-being, and improved therapeutic communication skills. Jean Watson's study recommendations in the future include the development of a caring model in the digital era and health technology related to the application of caring in telemedicine and the causative factor applied when interactions are not face-to-face.

Abstract

Introduction: Global climate change has caused an increase in the frequency and intensity of extreme rain events, including in Jambi Province which is vulnerable due to geographical conditions, land use intensity and the dominance of the plantation sector. Extreme rain events have the potential to cause flooding, damage infrastructure and disrupt food security, resulting in future climate projections to support mitigation and adaptation efforts. . Objective: The aim of the research is to project changes in extreme climate indices and analyze their spatial distribution patterns and impacts. Methods: The data used includes observed rainfall from 41 BMKG rain posts, CHIRPS reanalysis data, and CMIP6 model data for historical and projection periods. Results and Discussion: The research results show that most extreme rainfall indices have increased until the end of the 21st century. Intensity indices such as PRCPTot, RX1day, RX5day, R95p, and R99p show a significant upward trend, indicating an increase in very heavy rain events. Conclusion: Spatially, the central region is the area most vulnerable to increased rainfall extremes.

Abstract

Introduction: Adolescents currently face a double burden of malnutrition amidst a rapid transformation in digital health information. Conventional educational methods often fail to effectively engage Generation Z, a demographic with a distinct preference for visual and interactive learning formats. Objective: This study evaluated the effectiveness of a YouTube-based audiovisual intervention in improving knowledge and attitudes regarding balanced nutrition among adolescents in a boarding school setting. Method: This quantitative study employed a quasi-experimental, one-group pretest-posttest design. Participants comprised 88 students from MAPK Jabal Hikmah, an Islamic boarding school in East Lombok Regency, Indonesia, recruited via total sampling. The intervention consisted of a structured educational video aligned with the Indonesian Balanced Nutrition Guidelines (Pedoman Gizi Seimbang). Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test due to the non-normal distribution of variables. Result and Discussion: The intervention yielded a statistically significant increase in nutrition knowledge (p < 0.001), with mean scores rising from 30,51 to 80,40. Attitude scores also demonstrated significant improvement (p < 0.001), increasing from 46,53 to 61,02. Notably, the proportion of students categorized as having a "good" attitude rose substantially to 98.9% post-intervention, compared to 39.8% at baseline. Conclusion: YouTube-based audiovisual interventions are an effective and efficient digital health promotion strategy for enhancing adolescent nutrition literacy. Future studies should incorporate a control group to strengthen internal validity and generalizability.

Abstract

Introduction: Multiple injection immunization is a service strategy that administers more than one vaccine in a single visit to improve immunization efficiency and coverage. Despite evidence of safety, parental concerns regarding adverse effects remain a major barrier to its acceptance. Maternal knowledge plays a critical role in decision-making related to childhood immunization. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the association between maternal knowledge of immunization and acceptance of multiple injection immunization at community health posts in an urban primary healthcare setting. Method: An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among 82 mothers with children aged 2–24 months, selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed using the Chi-square test. Result and Discussion: More than half of respondents demonstrated a high level of immunization knowledge (57.3%), and the majority accepted multiple injection immunization (68.3%). Among mothers who accepted multiple injections, 67.9% had a high knowledge level. Statistical analysis showed a significant association between maternal knowledge level and acceptance of multiple injection immunization (p = 0.001). Conclusions: Maternal knowledge of immunization is significantly associated with acceptance of multiple injection immunization. Strengthening educational interventions targeting mothers and families is essential to improve acceptance and sustain optimal immunization coverage.

Abstract

Introduction: The posyandu plays a strategic role in improving maternal and child health, and its success depends on the active participation of mothers of toddlers in routine visits. However, posyandu visit rates in Takerharjo Village remain suboptimal and fluctuate over time, influenced by factors such as mothers’ education level, knowledge about posyandu, family support, and the role of health cadres.   Objective: To analyze the relationship between mothers’ education level, knowledge level, and family support, as well as the role of health cadres, with the motivation level of mothers of toddlers to visit the posyandu in Takerharjo Village. Method: This study employed a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. The research sample consisted of 81 respondents who met the inclusion criteria, selected using a cluster random sampling technique. The research instruments were questionnaires measuring education level, knowledge level, family support, the role of health cadres, and the motivation level of mothers of toddlers to visit the posyandu. The data were analyzed using the Chi-square test. Result and Discussion: Mothers’ knowledge level and family support showed a significant relationship with the motivation level of mothers of toddlers to visit the posyandu in Takerharjo Village. Mothers with good knowledge levels and high family support tended to have higher motivation to attend posyandu visits. Meanwhile, mothers’ education level and the role of health cadres did not show a significant relationship with the motivation level of mothers of toddlers to visit the posyandu. Conclusions: Most mothers had a high level of education, knowledge, family support, and motivation to visit the posyandu. Although the role of health cadres was generally rated as good, only mothers’ knowledge level and family support showed a significant relationship with motivation to visit the posyandu, while education level and the role of health cadres did not.

Abstract

Introduction: The maternal mortality rate (MMR) in Indonesia declined to 189 per 100,000 live births in 2020. However, this figure remains significantly above the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) target of 70 per 100,000 live births by 2030. One essential strategy to reduce MMR is to increase the coverage of antenatal care (ANC), particularly the initial visit (first ANC), which should occur before 12 weeks of gestation to facilitate early detection of pregnancy risks and prevent complications. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the factors associated with first ANC visits at Puskesmas Akle. Methods: This was an observational analytic study employing a cross-sectional design. The population included 138 pregnant women, with a sample of 50 participants selected through simple random sampling. Data were collected from medical records and analyzed using the chi-square test. Results and Discussion: The findings revealed that only 42% of respondents attended first ANC visits before 12 weeks of gestation. Significant associations were found between maternal age (p = 0.041) and parity (p = 0.014) and compliance with first ANC visits. However, no significant association was identified between maternal employment status (p = 0.976) and early ANC attendance. Conclusion: Compliance with early ANC visits remains low and is influenced by maternal age, parity, and accessibility to health facilities. Targeted health education and strengthened ANC services are essential to improving access for pregnant women, particularly those in underserved or hard-to-reach areas

Abstract

Introduction: Intrauterine device contraception offers superior efficacy and long-term benefits, yet utilization rates remain low in Indonesia. Husbands' knowledge significantly influences household contraceptive decisions within patriarchal family structures. Objective: This study examined the relationship between husbands' knowledge and intrauterine device contraceptive selection among couples of reproductive age in Pangalengan Subdistrict, Bandung Regency. Method: A descriptive correlational cross-sectional study was conducted with 86 husbands selected through purposive random sampling. Data collection utilized validated questionnaires assessing knowledge and contraceptive selection patterns. Chi-square analysis examined variable relationships. Result and Discussion: The majority of husbands (55.8%) demonstrated poor knowledge regarding intrauterine device contraception. Only 22.1% of couples selected intrauterine device methods. Statistical analysis confirmed significant relationships between husbands' knowledge and intrauterine device selection (p-value = 0.001). Among husbands with good knowledge, 63.6% selected intrauterine device contraception compared to 10.4% among those with poor knowledge, demonstrating clear dose-response patterns. Conclusion: Husbands' knowledge significantly influences intrauterine device contraceptive selection. Targeted educational interventions incorporating male engagement strategies are essential to enhance long-acting reversible contraceptive uptake and improve reproductive health outcomes.

Abstract

Introduction: Dengue hemorrhagic fever remains a major public health problem in tropical countries, including Indonesia. Environmental conditions, community behavior, and vector control practices contribute significantly to dengue transmission. Objective: This literature review aimed to analyze the relationship between breeding places, the 3M Plus strategy (draining, covering, reusing, and additional control efforts), and insecticide use with the incidence of dengue fever Method: This study used a systematic literature review approach by searching Google Scholar, PubMed, DOAJ, and Garuda databases for articles published between 2015 and 2025. Studies examining breeding places, 3M Plus practices, and insecticide use in relation to dengue incidence were included. Results and Discussion: Eight studies met the inclusion criteria. Poorly managed water containers and inadequate waste management were associated with increased Aedes aegypti density and dengue incidence. Consistent implementation of 3M Plus practices was associated with reduced larval indices and dengue cases. Insecticide use was effective for short-term control but limited by resistance and improper application. Conclusion: Integrated vector management combining environmental sanitation, consistent 3M Plus practices, appropriate insecticide use, and community education is essential for sustainable dengue prevention.
