Abstract

Background: Microplastics are a major component of marine debris, andtheir accumulation in aquatic environments can disrupt marine food chains,particularly in fish. Mangindara Village, South Galesong District, TakalarRegency, is a coastal area currently experiencing severe environmentalpollution, especially from plastic waste and household effluents. This condition raises serious concern, as plastic debris can degrade into microplastics that are not visible to the naked eye, enter marine organisms such as fish, and ultimately pose risks to human health. Methods: This study employed an observational design with a descriptive approach and laboratory analysis to examine the presence, types, and abundance of microplastics in Fish kembung (Rastrelliger sp.) and kurisi (Nemipterus nemurus) collected from the waters of Mangindara Village. The study population consisted of fish kembung and kurisi fish captured in the study area. Samples were selected using random sampling, with three individuals from each species analyzed. Results: The results showed that all examined fish samples contained microplastics. The average microplastic concentration in fish kembung was 0.061 g, whereas kurisi fish exhibited a higher average concentration of 0.085 g. The identified microplastics were predominantly line-shaped and appeared in blue, black, and red colors. Conclusion: These findings indicate widespread microplastic contamination in coastal fish species consumed by local communities. Therefore, reducing single-use plastic use and improving proper waste management practices are strongly recommended.

Abstract

Background: Workload is a critical determinant of nursing performance and healthcare quality, influencing work efficiency, patient safety, and job satisfaction. Despite its importance, evidence regarding these relationships remains inconsistent. This study examined the associations among workload, work efficiency, patient safety, and job satisfaction among nurses Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 136 nurses. Data were collected using self-administered questionnaires and analyzed with SPSS version 26. Spearman’s rank correlation assessed associations between variables, while the Kruskal–Wallis test compared job satisfaction across workload categories. Ordinal logistic regression identified predictors of job satisfaction. Model diagnostics included assessments of multicollinearity, model fit, pseudo R², and the proportional odds assumption. Results: Workload demonstrated a weak but significant positive association with work efficiency (ρ = 0.290, p < 0.001) and a weak negative association with patient safety (ρ = −0.231, p = 0.007), but was not significantly related to job satisfaction. The Kruskal–Wallis test indicated no significant differences in job satisfaction across workload categories (p = 0.392). Ordinal logistic regression revealed that workload and work efficiency were not significant predictors of job satisfaction (p > 0.05), whereas patient safety was significantly associated with job satisfaction (p < 0.001). The model demonstrated acceptable fit (χ² = 15.452, p = 0.017), modest explanatory power (Nagelkerke R² = 0.182), no multicollinearity (VIF < 5), and satisfied the proportional odds assumption (p = 0.823). Conclusion: Overall, workload is associated with work efficiency and patient safety, although these relationships are weak. Job satisfaction appears to be more closely associated with patient safety than with workload. These findings inform workload management strategies in hospital settings and underscore the importance of strengthening patient safety culture alongside workload regulation.

Abstract

Background: The rising prevalence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) necessitates the development of innovative digital healthcare solutions to improve prevention and self-management. This study developed and evaluated an Android-based application for NCD prevention and management, focusing on feasibility, validity, and reliability. Methods: A research and development (R&D) approach was utilized, comprising four stages: define, design, develop, and disseminate. The application underwent expert feasibility testing with nursing experts, community specialist physicians, contextual experts, and program managers. Construct validity was determined using item-total correlation (Pearson), and reliability was assessed with Cronbach’s alpha. Additionally, a small-scale user trial with 40 participants evaluated ease of use, appearance, satisfaction, and overall usability using a 17-item Likert-scale instrument. The application achieved high feasibility, with an overall score of 86.4%. Results: All items met established validity and reliability criteria. User testing further indicated strong acceptance, favorable usability, high user satisfaction, and a positive interface evaluation. Conclusion: In summary, the Android-based NCD application is feasible, valid, and reliable for supporting the prevention and management of non- communicable diseases. Larger-scale studies are warranted to assess its effectiveness in improving health behaviors and outcomes.

Abstract

Introduction: Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) is a choice behavior that is not part of an employee's formal work obligations. OCB is reflected in employees who help fellow employees with extra workloads and who comply with existing workplace regulations and policies. Many factors can shape OCB, including age, length of service, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment. This study aims to analyze factors related to organizational citizenship behavior. The research design used in this study is descriptive-analytical with a cross-sectional study approach. The sampling method in this study was purposive, so the number of respondents was 108. The research instrument used was a questionnaire. The data was analyzed using univariate and bivariate Spearman's rho. There is a moderate positivecorrelation (0.42), indicating that older officers tend to show higher OCB, butthe relationship is insignificant (p = 0.679). There is a moderate positive correlation (0.42), indicating that officers with longer work experience are more involved in OCB, but the relationship is not statistically significant (p = 0.679). The strong positive correlation (0.60) indicates that job satisfaction can create high OCB, and p = 0.001 indicates a significant relationship. There is a low negative correlation (-0.203), indicating that high organizational commitment can reduce OCB; p = 0.042 indicates a significant relationship. Age and years of work experience do not have a significant relationship with OCB, whereas job satisfaction and organizational commitment do in health workers.

Abstract

ackground: Poor sleep quality is a prevalent symptom reported by type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, and with impaired glycemic control, decreased quality of life, psychological distress, and an increased risk of diabetes-related complications. Sleep disturbances may also negatively affect treatment adherence and daily functioning. Despite its clinical significance, a culturally adapted and validated instrument for assessing sleep quality in Indonesian patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus remains limited. To address the existing literature gap, this study translated and adapted the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Indonesia and evaluated its validity and reliability. Methods: This study employed a quantitative descriptive design using a cross-sectional approach. The translation and cultural adaptation process followed recommended guidelines, including translation, expert panel review, and pilot testing. Content validity was assessed by a panel of experts. Reliability testing was conducted using Cronbach’s alpha to assess internal consistency. A convenience sample of 140 adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus completed the instrument. Results: The item content validity and a Cronbach’s alpha coefficient were 1 and 0.712, respectively. The findings demonstrated that the Indonesian version of the PSQI-I had satisfactory validity and reliability. The content validity index indicated good relevance. The overall Cronbach’s alpha indicates acceptable internal consistency reliability. Conclusion: Bahasa Indonesia version of the PSQI (PSQI-I) is a valid and reliable instrument for assessing sleep quality among Indonesian patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This instrument may be used in clinical and nursing practice, as well as in future research, to evaluate sleep-related problems in this population.

Abstract

Background: The rate of exclusive breastfeeding in Indonesia was 61.33% in 2021 and increased to 64.5% in 2022. The government has set a target of 80% for exclusive breastfeeding; however, this target has not yet been achieved. Efforts to increase this coverage include providing accurate and appropriate information regarding the benefits of exclusive breastfeeding for both mothers and infants, which can enhance public awareness of its importance. Inadequate breast milk removal can result in breast swelling or breast milk engorgement . Breast milk engorgement in postpartum mothers requires proper care and management. The researchers conducted this study at PMB Tjasini because many postpartum mothers experience breast milk engorgement at this facility. This study aimed to determine the effect of cabbage leaf compresses on breast milk engorgement at PMB (Independent Midwife Practice) Tjasini in 2025. Methods: This study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach. The study population comprised 10 postpartum mothers in the PMB Tjasini area. The sample included 10 respondents selected using purposive sampling. Results: The univariate analysis showed that the mean breast pain score in postpartum mothers before receiving cabbage leaf compresses was 5.80, while after the intervention it decreased to 3.80. The bivariate analysis showed a significant effect of cabbage leaf compresses on breast pain in postpartum mothers in the PMB Tjasini area in 2025 (p-value = 0.000). Conclusion: Breast milk engorgement can be prevented by increasing support for postpartum mothers to initiate breastfeeding early.

Abstract

Introduction Prolonged labor is a childbirth complication that contributes to high maternal mortality and can negatively affect both the mother and the baby. Non-pharmacological interventions, such as the Rebozo technique and lavender aromatherapy, have proven to be effective in accelerating labor. However, studies that examine the effectiveness of both interventions remain limited. This study aimed to identify participant characteristics (age, parity, contractions, hemoglobin levels), assess intervention outcomes, measure the second stage duration after intervention, and analyze the relationship between the combination of Rebozo technique and lavender aromatherapy and the duration of the second stage of labor Methods This study used a quasi-experimental posttest-only design. Participants consisted of 32 laboring mothers selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using observation sheets and analyzed using the Chi-square test. Results The results revealed that most participants were of ideal age (75%), multiparous (65.6%), had normal hemoglobin levels (78.1%), and experienced adequate uterine contractions (93.8%). A total of 65.6% of participants received the intervention completely, and after the intervention, 93.8% experienced a shorter second stage of labor than the theoretical duration. The Chi-square test indicated a significant relationship between the intervention and the duration of the second stage of labor (p = 0.044; X² = 4.073; OR = 1.222). Conclusions In conclusion, there is a significant relationship between the combined intervention of the Rebozo technique and lavender aromatherapy and the duration of the second stage of labor. Mothers who received the incomplete intervention had a 1.2 times higher risk of experiencing a prolonged second stage of labor compared wi
