Abstract

Humans have two main needs, namely physiological and psychological needs. Physiological needs include eating, drinking and sleeping which are important for health and well-being. Sleep quality can be disturbed by excessive use of social media, especially in adolescents. To explore the relationship between the intensity of social media use and sleep quality, a study was conducted on students of SMA Negeri 1 Denpasar. This study involved 381 respondents, using a cross-sectional study design with data collection using the PSQI questionnaire to evaluate sleep quality and a questionnaire on the intensity of social media use. The results showed that most of the respondents were 16 years old (30.7%) and the average age was 16.5 years. The sex of the most respondents was female with a total of 207 people (54.3%). Most of the respondents with low intensity of using social media were 191 people (50.1%) and respondents with high intensity were 190 people (49.9%). The majority of respondents had poor sleep quality as many as 240 people (63.0%) and the rest had good sleep quality as many as 141 people (37.0%). The conclusion in this study is that there is no relationship between the intensity of social media use and the quality of sleep in students of SMA Negeri 1 Denpasar (p=0.157) which may be caused by the influence of other factors not examined in this study.

Abstract

[The Relationship Between Hemoglobin Levels With The Occurrence Of Fever Seizures In Toddler Age Children] Febrile seizures are neurological disorders commonly found in children. This disease can be caused by the level of hemoglobin. If the hemoglobin level is low, it can cause anemia. Anemia has an impact on decreasing the power of oxygen transportation to the tissues which disrupts the stability of the nerve cell membranes and triggers seizures. The purpose of the study was to find out the correlation of hemoglobin levels with the emergence of febrile seizures that attacked children under five years old at the Sanjiwani Hospital, Gianyar Regency for the 2017-2019 period. This study used secondary data obtained from the patient's medical history, with a cross-sectional design. The total sample is 96 respondents, obtained by simple random sampling. With statistical analysis, there was no significant difference regarding gender (p=0.636) and age (p=0.619) between the febrile seizure group and the febrile group without seizures. Unpaired t-test results show that the mean hemoglobin level in subjects with febrile seizures is 10.71gr/dl, whereas in subjects with fever without seizures, the average hemoglobin level is 12.02g/dl. This difference was statistically significant (p<0.001). In this study, the relationship between low Hb levels and the incidence of febrile seizures was analyzed. With the chi-square test (χ2), there was a significant correlation between patients with low Hb levels (Hb < 11 g/dl) and the occurrence of febrile seizures (p < 0.001, RP = 2.1 CI 1.531-2.893). It can be concluded in this study that there is a correlation between hemoglobin levels and the occurrence of febrile seizures that attack children under five years old at the Sanjiwani Hospital, Gianyar Regency.

Abstract

[The Effect of Brain Gymnastics on Short-Term Memory in Students of the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences, University of Warmadewa] Cognitive function is a complex function in the human brain that involves both short-term and long-term memory. Short-term memory upholds various aspects of life, for instance, academic achievement, so it needs to be trained. Short-term memory can be trained by doing brain exercises. It can optimize brain function. Brain exercise is a sequence of simple movements that can improve short-term memory. This is an experimental study that uses a quasi- experimental method with a pre-test and post-test control group design. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of brain exercises on students' short-term memory at the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences, University of Warmadewa. This study uses students of the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences, University of Warmadewa, class of 2021, as the sample. Purposive sampling is used as a sampling technique. The result of the statistical analysis shows a significant increase in the short-term memory of the experimental group that was given brain exercises 4 times a week for 2 weeks in both subtenses digit forward (p = 0.001) and digit backward (p = 0.002). On the other hand, in the control group who were not given brain exercise training, there was no increase in short-term memory in the digit forward (p = 0.162) and digit backward (p = 0.257) subtests. This study demonstrates that there is a positive effect of giving brain exercises on short-term memory in students of the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences, University of Warmadewa.
