Abstract

A common problem experienced by almost all women of childbearing age is dysmenorrhea. This is caused by hormonal changes as well as factors such as unhealthy lifestyle, smoking, and family history. The conjunction of dysmenorrhea gymnastics and warm compresses has been demonstrated to effectively reduce the intensity of pain. This study seeks to investigate the impact of the combination of dysmenorrhea gymnastics and warm compresses alongside Warm Water Zak (WWZ) on alleviating the intensity of dysmenorrhea pain among level 4 students enrolled in the Bachelor of Applied Nursing program. The research methodology employed was quasi-experimental, utilizing a pretest-posttest design paired with a nonequivalent control group design. Sampling was conducted through probability sampling, specifically employing the simple random sampling method, resulting in a total of 32 samples distributed across four groups. The research instruments utilized included a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) pain questionnaire, Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) for dysmenorrhea gymnastics and warm compresses with WWZ, observation sheets, and informational leaflets. The statistical assessment of normality was performed using the Shapiro-Wilk test wilk. A multivariate analysis was conducted employing the One-Way ANOVA Test and Bonferroni's post hoc test. The results of the One-Way ANOVA test indicate a significance value of 0.000, which is less than 0.050. Furthermore, the Bonferroni post hoc test results reveal a significant difference (p < 0.05) across several groups. This finding demonstrates that the combination of dysmenorrhea gymnastics and warm compresses with warm water zak (WWZ) has a notable effect on reducing the intensity of dysmenorrhea pain among level 4 students of the Bachelor of Applied program Nursing.

Abstract

Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease marked by distinct histological hallmarks, including Pick bodies. Manual identification is time-consuming, subjective, and requires expert neuropathologists. This study developed a convolutional neural network (CNN) for the automated detection of Pick bodies in histological images of FTLD. The model achieved 86.3% accuracy, 89.0% recall, and 0.91 ROC AUC, demonstrating its potential for objective and scalable identification of FTLD-related histopathological features, with applications for clinical diagnosis. Inference time per image was 0.042 seconds. Pixel density analysis revealed a significant difference between positive (mean 59.8) and negative (mean 47.3) regions. These findings support the feasibility of deep learning in neuropathology, enabling objective and scalable identification of FTLD-related changes. This approach offers potential for clinical integration, accelerated diagnosis, and expansion to other neurodegenerative disorders.

Abstract

Dysmenorrhea is a common menstrual pain complaint experienced by adolescent girls and can interfere with learning activities and overall quality of life. The management of dysmenorrhea encompasses not only pharmacological interventions but also non-pharmacological strategies, which are regarded as safer alternatives with minimal adverse effects. Among such approaches, physical therapy including abdominal stretching and effleurage massage has garnered attention. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of abdominal stretching and effleurage massage in alleviating dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls. The research design employed was a pre-experimental method utilizing a two-group pretest-posttest framework, consisting of two intervention groups without a control group. A total of 32 female students from Muhammadiyah 10 Senior High School Surabaya who experienced dysmenorrhea were selected using purposive sampling. The results showed a significant decrease in pain scale before and after the intervention in both groups. The group receiving effleurage massage showed a faster reduction in pain intensity compared to the abdominal stretching group. The average pain scale after treatment decreased significantly in both groups. Respondents reported feelings of relaxation and comfort after the intervention. No side effects were found during or after the therapy. Effleurage massage yielded more effective results in a shorter time. In conclusion, abdominal stretching and effleurage massage are effective in reducing dysmenorrhea in adolescent girls. These therapies can serve as safe and practical non-pharmacological treatment alternatives. This study is expected to be a reference for healthcare professionals and educators in providing education and holistic management of menstrual pain in adolescents.

Abstract

Gout was still one of the chronic disease trends suffered by the community which was characterised by elevated uric acid levels. This condition is closely related to lifestyle, namely the consumption of purine-rich foods. However, there were not studies that discovered the relationship between purine-rich food intake with elevated uric acid levels. This study aims to analyse the relationship between purine-rich food intake with elevated uric acid levels. This study used a correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. The population was the community in village "x" who suffered from gout with a total of 70 people. From them, 66 people were selected as participants who met the inclusion criteria through a purposive sampling method. The instrument used was a questionnaire for the variable of purine-rich food intake and uric acid test with a GCU meter. The results showed that there was a strong positive correlation between purine-rich food intake with elevated uric acid levels (p = 0,000; r = 0,567), this is evidenced by the fact that the majority of participants with high uric acid levels had a history of consuming purine-rich foods exceeding the daily tolerance limit, whereas low or normal uric acid levels were found in participants with a history of consuming high purine foods below the threshold or even not consuming purine-rich foods. These results indicated that consuming purine-rich foods could have a significant impact on elevated uric acid levels, so it was necessary to reduce or limit daily purine food intake.

Abstract

Hypertension, often referred to as a "silent killer," is a prevalent non-communicable disease that significantly contributes to cardiovascular events and other serious health complications. Despite various pharmacological treatments, many hypertensive patients seek non-pharmacological alternatives to manage their condition. This study investigates the effect of combined foot bath and foot massage therapy on blood pressure reduction in hypertensive patients. A quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design was employed, with 40 participants selected through purposive sampling. These participants were assigned to either the intervention group, which received the combined therapy for three consecutive days, or the control group, which did not receive the intervention. Blood pressure was measured before and after the intervention using a digital sphygmomanometer. The data were analyzed using paired sample t-tests and independent sample t-tests. The results showed a significant decrease in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure in the intervention group, with p-values of 0.000 and 0.025, respectively. In contrast, no significant change was observed in the control group (p > 0.05). The findings suggest that the combination of foot bath and foot massage therapy is effective in lowering blood pressure in hypertensive patients. This non-pharmacological approach offers a promising complementary treatment for hypertension management, particularly for patients who are seeking alternatives to medication. Further research with a larger sample size and longer intervention period is recommended to confirm these results and explore the long-term effects of this therapy.

Abstract

Disease perception is a factor that affects self-care practices, psychological distress, and other health outcomes in people living with diabetes mellitus (DM). A positive perception of the disease can affect the patient's self-care and health status. This study aims to determine the correlation between characteristic factors and illness perception in patients with DM. This study was correlational research with a cross-sectional approach. The sample size was 175 adult patients with DM recruited from 4 health centres in Surabaya in July–August 2024 using a simple random sampling technique. Data analysis uses linear regression with a significance level of 0.05. This study shows that most (59.42%) patients with DM have a high illness perception. The factors that had a positive correlation with illness perceptions were age (p=0.021), disease history (p=0.027), and comorbidity (p=0.023). Age, disease history, and comorbidities are factors that are positively correlated with illness perception. This must be vigilance for patients at risk of DM, so they are conditioned to perceive the disease positively. As part of health workers, nurses must provide continuous education and counselling about patients' diseases

Abstract

Unmet need is a condition where women of reproductive age (WUS) are sexually active but do not use contraception. In 2024, Terung Village recorded an unmet need rate of 11.31%. This condition poses a risk to population control efforts. One contributing factor is the level of husband support. This study aims to analyze the relationship between husband support and unmet need incidence in WUS in Terung Village. The research used an observational, cross-sectional design with 163 respondents selected through simple random sampling. Husband support served as the independent variable, while unmet need was the dependent variable. Data were collected using questionnaires and open interviews, and analyzed using the Chi-Square test.Results showed that 30.1% of WUS experienced unmet need, primarily among women over 35 years old, with elementary education, as housewives, having more than one child, and middle-income status. WUS without husband support had a higher unmet need rate (45.2%) compared to those with full support (10%). The Chi-Square analysis indicated a significant relationship between husband support and unmet need (p = 0.000; α = 0.05). The novelty of this study lies in the considerable disparity in unmet need based on the presence or absence of husband support. Findings emphasize the importance of involving men in family planning decisions, suggesting the need for community-based education to enhance husband participation in contraceptive use.

Abstract

Pregnancy gingivitis remains a prevalent oral health problem among pregnant women, largely driven by hormonal changes and inadequate awareness of proper oral hygiene practices. Despite its high prevalence and potential complications, including heightened risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes, educational resources tailored to improving oral health knowledge during pregnancy are still limited and often ineffective. This study addresses this gap by examining the impact of the Android-based Mom Smile application as an accessible digital learning tool for enhancing pregnant women’s knowledge of pregnancy gingivitis. This research employed a quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design involving 32 pregnant women attending the Gayam Health Center in Sumenep Regency. Participants completed a validated knowledge questionnaire assessing their understanding of pregnancy gingivitis including its definition, symptoms, causes, impacts, and prevention before and after engaging with the Mom Smile application. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test due to non-normal distribution. The findings demonstrated a substantial improvement in knowledge following the intervention. The mean knowledge score increased from 54.68% in the pretest to 83.28% in the posttest. Prior to the intervention, 62% of participants exhibited low knowledge levels, whereas after using the application, 88% achieved high knowledge levels. Statistical analysis confirmed a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (p < 0.05), indicating the effectiveness of the Mom Smile application. In conclusion, the Mom Smile application proved to be an effective digital educational tool for enhancing pregnant women’s knowledge about pregnancy gingivitis. Its motion-graphic–based content offers an engaging and practical alternative to traditional printed materials. Integrating such digital health education into antenatal care services may support better oral hygiene practices, thereby contributing to improved maternal health outcomes.
