Abstract

Diarrhea is still a health problem and a cause of death in toddlers. Poor environmental sanitation can affect the high incidence of diarrhea. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2021 diarrhea is the second leading disease that causes death in toddlers and causes 525,000 toddlers to die each year. The research design used was correlational analytic with a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study were mothers who had toddlers who experienced diarrhea at BPM Khairani Perumnas Batu VI, Simalungun Regency, totaling 38 people. The sampling technique was total sampling. Data collection was carried out by filling out questionnaires and data analysis using univariate analysis and bivariate analysis with the Chi-Square statistical test. From the results of the study, it was obtained based on drinking water sources that the Chi-Square test results were obtained with a P value of 0.001 (<0.05). Based on the ownership of toilets, the Chi Square test results showed a p-value = 0.002 (≤ 0.05) and based on the type of house floor, the p-value = 0.002 (≤ 0.05). It can be concluded that there is a significant relationship between drinking water sources, family toilet ownership and type of house floor with the incidence of diarrhea in toddlers. It is hoped that health workers will further maximize health programs, one of which is regarding increasing public knowledge, especially mothers who have toddlers, about environmental sanitation to prevent the incidence of diarrhea in toddlers.

Abstract

The practice of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), also known as female circumcision, is still maintained, especially in Aceh, despite being banned by the WHO and the government. This practice is not taught in the school, including the midwifery school, as midwives are among the healthcare providers who generally offer this service. The dynamics of policy changes and deeply rooted differences in religious and cultural views create confusion for midwives in the field, particularly given the still high demand and community encouragement. The purpose of this research was to analyse the factors influencing the implementation of female circumcision by midwives. This was a cross-sectional study with the population of midwives who were working in the Aceh Province region in 2024. The sample of this study consisted of midwives who provide female circumcision services in Aceh, with a sample size of 86 people. Statistical analysis used the Chi-Square test with the SPSS v.25 . The majority of midwives performed circumcision about 1-2 times a month, and midwives perceived circumcision as a social necessity. Midwives aged ≥ 43 years, with work experience ≥ 13 years, working for ≥ 20 years, possessing good knowledge, and having a positive attitude tended to perform risky circumcisions. The results of the statistical test indicated that there was no significant relationship between age, years of service, duration of providing female circumcision services, knowledge, attitude, and social needs regarding the implementation of female circumcision. The research results indicated that midwives in Aceh continue to practice female circumcision, with the majority performing it in a risky manner. Although midwives have positive knowledge and attitudes, social necessity factors are the main drivers in its implementation

Abstract

traditional and religious practice for girls in Aceh. While Indonesia has ratified international agreements banning Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting (FGM/C), implementation faces unique challenges in Aceh due to strong cultural and religious influences on healthcare practices. Objective: This study examined midwives' implementation of female circumcision following 2024 regulations, exploring practice challenges, conflicts between professional ethics and cultural values, and clinical implications. Methods: We conducted qualitative, phenomenological interviews with 18 midwives from four Aceh regions (Banda Aceh, Southwest Aceh, Central Aceh, and East Aceh), selected through snowball sampling, to capture diverse experiences. Results: Perceptions and responses to FGM regulations, along with value conflicts between legal requirements, professional ethics, and cultural/religious norms. Conclusion: The 2024 regulations have positioned midwives as key agents of change in eliminating FGM/C.However, effective implementation is hindered by information gaps, strong cultural resistance, and insufficient government support.

Abstract

Diarrhea remains a leading health issue among school-aged children in Indonesia. In central Aceh District, particularly in Bies Subdistrict, the incidence of diarrhea has increased, with one the primary contributing factors being poor handwashing with soap (HWWS) practices. Health education using engaging methods, such as the Snakes and Ladders game, may improve children’s behavior related to HWWS. This study aimed to determine the effect of the Snakes and Ladders educational game on HWWS behavior, including knowledge, attitude, and practice, among fourth- and fifth-grade students in the Central Aceh District. A quasi-experimental design with a nonequivalent control group was employed, involving 80 respondents divided into an intervention and a control group. The intervention group received HWWS education through the Snakes and Ladders game, while the control group received no special treatment. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U Test and Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. Based on the results of the Mann Whitney test, it showed that there was no significant difference in knowledge between the intervention and control groups during the pretest (p = 0.649), but there was a significant difference in the posttest (p = 0.002). Attitudes showed differences both before (p = 0.000) and after the intervention (p = 0.000). Likewise, actions, there were significant differences in the pretest (p = 0.019) and posttest (p = 0.000). Meanwhile, the Wilcoxon test showed that there was a significant increase between the pretest and posttest in the intervention group, both in knowledge (p = 0.004), attitudes (p = 0.000), and actions (p = 0.000). The snakes and ladders educational game is effective in improving HWWS behavior among elementary school children. It is recommended as an enjoyable and innovative method for health education in school-bassed health programs.

Abstract

Futsal is a sport that requires speed and agility. However, the physical fitness measurements of futsal extracurricular students at MAN 2 Soppeng indicated below average speed and agility. This study aims to compare the effects of combining core stability exercise with plyometric training and ladder training on improving speed and agility. This was a true experimental study with the randomized match two groups design involving 22 students, divided into two groups of 11. Group 1 received CSE+PT, while Group 2 received CSE+LT for 6 weeks. Speed was measured using a 30-meter sprint test, and agility was assessed with the Illinois Agility Test. Both groups showed significant improvements in agility (p=<0.001). For speed, Group 1 showed p=0.003 and Group 2 p=<0.001. However, there was no significant difference between groups for speed improvement (p=0.061), while there was a significant difference in agility (p=<0.001). This study suggests CSE+LT is more effective in enhancing agility).

Abstract

Leucaena leucaena seeds are widely believed to be a plant that can treat various ailments, including diuretics. Leucaena seeds contain a high amount of alkaloids, saponins, flavonoids, tannins, protein, fat, calcium, phosphorus, iron, amino acids, and leucanol. The purpose of this study was to determine whether ethanol extract of leucaena seeds can have a diuretic effect on male white rats. This study used 30 male white rats divided into five groups: Group I (solvent control) with 1% CMC. Group II (comparison) with furosemide. Groups III, IV, and V (treatment) were given ethanol extract of leucaena seeds at doses of 150 mg/kg BW, 300 mg/kg BW, and 600 mg/kg BW, respectively. The test preparations were administered orally using a metabolic cage equipped with a rat urine collector. Observations were made every hour for 8 hours to determine total urine volume. The urine volume of each group was statistically analyzed using ANOVA and the LSD test. The results of the statistical test of urine volume between the furosemide and ethanol extract groups of lamtoro seeds (Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) de Wit) showed no significant difference. From the results of the study, it can be concluded that the higher the concentration of EEBL suspension given, the more urine volume will be produced, and when the EEBL suspension was given at a dose of 600 mg/kg BW, the results were almost comparable to the group of animals given furosemide suspension.
