Abstract

Menstrual pain (dysmenorrhea) is a common reproductive disorder among female adolescents that can disrupt daily activities and diminish academic concentration. Management of dysmenorrhea involves both pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches, including acupressure therapy at the SP6 (Sanyinjiao) and LI4 (Hegu) points, which are believed to enhance blood circulation and stimulate endorphin production to alleviate pain. This study aimed to determine the effect of acupressure at the SP6 and LI4 points on reducing menstrual pain among female adolescents at Islamic Junior High Schools (MTs) within the Anak Tuha Health Center service area, Central Lampung Regency, in 2025. A pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach was utilized, involving 25 respondents experiencing dysmenorrhea selected through total sampling. Data analysis using the Wilcoxon test revealed that the average menstrual pain scale decreased significantly from 4.48 (moderate pain) before the intervention to 1.32 (mild pain) after the intervention, with a p-value of 0.000 ($p < 0.05$). These findings indicate a significant effect of acupressure at the SP6 and LI4 points on reducing menstrual pain intensity. In conclusion, acupressure at the SP6 and LI4 points is effective in decreasing dysmenorrhea in female adolescents; therefore, it is recommended that students practice this technique independently as a non-pharmacological alternative, and that schools and healthcare providers offer education on safe, natural pain management.

Abstract

Background: Dental and craniofacial anatomical variations are fundamental determinants of orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. Variability in tooth morphology, skeletal relationships, and alveolar bone anatomy may influence biomechanical feasibility, treatment selection, and the risk of complications. Objective: This systematic review aimed to synthesize current evidence on dental and craniofacial anatomical variations and to evaluate their impact on orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. Methods:A systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science in accordance with the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Studies published in English within the last 10 years and involving human subjects with permanent dentition were considered. Data extraction and study selection were performed independently, and findings were synthesized narratively due to methodological heterogeneity. Results: Twenty studies were included in the qualitative synthesis. Dental anatomical variations, particularly root morphology and tooth anomalies, were associated with biomechanical limitations and increased risk of root resorption. Craniofacial skeletal variations influenced malocclusion patterns, growth assessment, and decisions between orthodontic camouflage and combined orthodontic surgical treatment. Alveolar bone anatomical variability defined the biological limits of orthodontic tooth movement and was closely linked to periodontal risk. 3D imaging techniques, especially cone-beam computed tomography, enhanced the identification of clinically relevant anatomical constraints. Conclusions: Dental, craniofacial, and alveolar anatomical variations play a critical role in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. An anatomy driven approach supported by appropriate imaging improves diagnostic accuracy, facilitates individualized treatment strategies, and reduces the risk of adverse outcomes. These findings support the integration of comprehensive anatomical assessment into precision orthodontic practice.

Abstract

Compliance with iron consumption significantly impacts the health of pregnant women and their fetuses. Anemia is a major public health problem worldwide, especially for women of reproductive age. For pregnant women, anemia contributes to an increased prevalence of maternal mortality and morbidity, and for infants, it can increase the risk of infant morbidity and mortality, as well as Low Birth Weight (LBW). The contribution of anemia to maternal and infant mortality is estimated to be even higher, between 50-70%. This figure can be reduced if pregnant women receive a daily intake of 90 iron tablets and supplementation with vitamin B12 and folic acid. The causes of anemia in pregnant women are iron deficiency caused by a lack of iron-containing food sources, adequate food sources with low iron content resulting in insufficient iron absorption, and foods consumed containing substances that inhibit iron absorption. This study aimed to determine the compliance of pregnant women in consuming iron tablets. This was a quantitative descriptive study, with all pregnant women at the Rasana'e Timur Community Health Center (Puskesmas) participating. Data analysis used a frequency distribution table.

Abstract

Pulp necrosis is a pathological condition caused by the death of pulp tissue, often due to untreated dental caries. Pulp necrosis can lead to tooth discoloration, which is a major aesthetic complaint for patients. Root canal treatment (ROT) is an essential procedure to remove necrotic tissue and restore tooth function. Crown restoration is necessary to improve the structural strength and aesthetics of teeth that have undergone ROT. This case report discusses a 22-year-old woman who complained of discoloration of her anterior teeth. Clinical and radiographic examinations revealed a diagnosis of pulp necrosis in the left maxillary central incisor. Treatment was performed using conventional techniques, irrigation with 2.5% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) solution, intracanal application of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) medication, and obturation with gutta-percha and sealer. The final restoration was performed with a fiber post and a full porcelain crown (zirconia) to improve retention, strength, and aesthetics of the tooth. This combination of PSA treatment and restoration has been proven effective in maintaining function, preventing fractures, and improving the aesthetics of non-vital teeth, thus providing good long-term results for patients.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a big effect on the use of primary healthcare services. For example, fewer people with degenerative diseases like diabetes mellitus and hypertension are going to see their doctors. People may be worried about getting COVID-19, which could make them less likely to go to their regular check-up appointments, especially at the Community Health Center (Puskesmas) level. This study seeks to examine the correlation between the frequency of visits by patients with hypertension and diabetes mellitus and their anxiety levels during the COVID-19 pandemic in the Sukorejo Community Health Center (Puskesmas) area of Blitar City. This research employed a quantitative correlational design utilizing a cross-sectional methodology. The study sample comprised 60 respondents, chosen via simple random sampling from the population of patients diagnosed with hypertension and diabetes mellitus. The Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HARS) questionnaire was utilized to assess anxiety levels, and a structured questionnaire was employed to gather information regarding patient visits. We used the Chi-Square test with a significance level of 0.05 to analyze the data. The findings indicated that a significant proportion of respondents (68.3%) did not frequently visit the Puskesmas during the COVID-19 pandemic. Most of the people who answered the question said they were not anxious (48.3%) or slightly anxious (28.3%). The chi-square test yielded a p-value of 0.364 (p > 0.05), signifying no significant correlation between patient visits and anxiety levels during the COVID-19 pandemic. It can be determined that anxiety levels were not a significant factor affecting the visits of patients with hypertension and diabetes mellitus during the COVID-19 pandemic. The results indicate the necessity for enhanced health education, familial support, and better accessibility and quality of healthcare services to promote compliance with regular visits by patients with degenerative diseases.

Abstract

Thalassemia screening is a crucial step in preventing the birth of infants with thalassemia major. Thalassemia major is a disorder that requires lifelong blood transfusions. Long-term transfusion therapy leads to iron accumulation in various organs, such as the heart, liver, and endocrine glands. Individuals with thalassemia major are born to parents who are both carriers of the thalassemia trait. Carriers do not exhibit any clinical symptoms; therefore, carrier status can usually only be identified through laboratory examinations. This community service activity aimed to increase awareness of early thalassemia detection through laboratory screening among unmarried individuals of reproductive age within the Unjani campus community. The approach employed was a community partnership involving students, lecturers, and administrative staff at Unjani. The examinations included complete blood count analysis and hemoglobin analysis. The activity was conducted from September to October 2025 at the Clinical Pathology Laboratory of the Faculty of Medicine, Unjani. A total of 246 participants were involved, of whom 7 were identified as thalassemia carriers, 1 was diagnosed with thalassemia major, and 2 were found to have Hb E thalassemia. Participants who were identified with thalassemia received special counseling regarding thalassemia screening among close family members and future spouses prior to marriage. Early detection of thalassemia is highly beneficial not only for current health awareness but also for preventing the transmission of genetic disorders to future generations.

Abstract

Drug availability and the quality of pharmaceutical services are important factors influencing patient satisfaction in healthcare facilities. This study aimed to analyze the effect of drug availability and pharmaceutical service quality on patient satisfaction at Bulan Mulya Perawang Primary Clinic (Inpatient). This research employed a quantitative method with a cross-sectional design. Data were collected using structured questionnaires distributed to 50 patients who had received pharmaceutical services at the clinic. The data were analyzed using validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, and multiple linear regression analysis with SPSS.The results showed that all research instruments were valid and reliable. Classical assumption tests indicated that the data were normally distributed and free from multicollinearity and heteroscedasticity. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that drug availability and pharmaceutical service quality had a positive and significant effect on patient satisfaction, both partially and simultaneously. The correlation coefficient indicated a moderately strong relationship between the independent variables and patient satisfaction (R = 0.664). The coefficient of determination (R²) was 0.425, indicating that 42.5% of patient satisfaction was influenced by drug availability and pharmaceutical service quality, while the remaining 57.5% was affected by other factors not examined in this study. These findings highlight the importance of ensuring adequate drug availability and improving pharmaceutical service quality to enhance patient satisfaction

Abstract

Pulmonary tuberculosis is an infectious disease that affects the lungs and is characteristically marked by the formation of granulomas that lead to tissue necrosis. Pulmonary tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a rod-shaped bacterium measuring approximately 1–4 µm in length and 0.3–0.6 µm in width. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2007, the number of tuberculosis cases in Indonesia was approximately 528,000, ranking Indonesia third worldwide after India and China. A WHO report in 2009 recorded that Indonesia ranked fifth globally with 429,000 tuberculosis cases, following India, China, South Africa, and Nigeria (WHO Global Tuberculosis Control, 2010). This study aimed to describe the level of knowledge of pulmonary tuberculosis patients regarding the interruption of anti-tuberculosis drug (OAT) treatment at Batang Beruh Community Health Center. The population of this study consisted of patients diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis. The sampling technique used was probability sampling with a random sampling method, resulting in a total sample of 40 respondents. Primary data were collected in this study.The results of this study are expected to encourage respondents to improve their knowledge by actively seeking information and being more concerned about personal and community health in order to prevent the transmission of pulmonary tuberculosis. Additionally, improvements in patient behavior are anticipated through the active involvement and cooperation of medical personnel and other healthcare professionals in providing accurate and appropriate health information
