Abstract

Diabetic neuropathy is a serious and common complication for individuals with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). However, there's a scarcity of studies investigating how the duration of diabetes and glycemic control impact the development of neuropathy. This study aimed to examine the effect of diabetes duration and blood glucose levels on the risk of neuropathy in patients with T2D in Surabaya. This was an observational study utilizing a cross-sectional data collection method. Data were gathered from 150 patients between May and July 2023. Patients were categorized based on their diabetes duration (less than 5 years, 5–10 years, and greater than 10 years) and their blood glucose levels (HbA1c less than 7%, 7–10%, and greater than 10%). Neuropathy was assessed using the 10g monofilament test and the Neuropathy Disability Score (NDS). Statistical analysis involved descriptive statistics and logistic regression, with a significance level set at 0.05 for hypothesis testing. The results revealed a significantly higher risk of neuropathy in patients with T2D for more than 10 years (90%) compared to those with T2D for less than 5 years (40%). Similarly, patients with poor blood glucose control (HbA1c greater than 10%) had an 85% chance of developing neuropathy. Whereas only 30% of those with well-controlled blood glucose (HbA1c less than 7%) developed the condition. Logistic regression analysis further confirmed that both a longer diabetes duration and elevated blood glucose levels significantly increase the risk of neuropathy (p<0.05). These findings underscore the critical importance of effective blood glucose management and early neuropathy detection to prevent severe diabetic complications. Furthermore, this study highlights the urgent need for enhanced diabetes education, early screening programs, and improved healthcare strategies across Indonesia to mitigate the burden of diabetic neuropathy.

Abstract

The rise of digital media has transformed how Generation Z (Gen Z) interacts, communicates, and accesses information. Though digital platforms offer benefits such as connectivity, education, and entertainment, their impact on mental health has raised concerns. Research reveals a complex relationship between digital media use and Gen Z’s mental well-being. Social media such as Facebook can provide opportunities for social support and self-expression but is also linked to anxiety, depression, cyberbullying, and self-image disorders. However, limited review study evaluates the impact of Facebook on mental health status of Gen Z population. This study evaluates the influence of Facebook on Gen Z’s mental health. A literature review was conducted using databases include Google Scholar, PubMed, and Scopus, focusing on articles published between 2020 and 2024 in English and Indonesian. Findings suggest that adolescents' use of Facebook promote self-expression and social support, but it can also trigger mental health problems. Problematic internet use is also associated with loneliness and maladaptive coping styles. Although some psychoeducation-based interventions have been conducted, there is a need for further studies to develop more specific approaches to prevent the psychological distress among Gen Z. Keywords: Community nurses, Facebook, Generation Z, innovation strategies, mental health issues

Abstract

Hypertension remains a serious clinical condition globally that significantly contributing to fatalities worldwide. Intensive and comprehensive care is crucial for preventing its complications. While standard care is always necessary, its effectiveness can be optimized by integrating complementary therapies, such as hypertension management exercise. However, there are limited studies describing the effectiveness of this specific therapy within the Indonesian population. The purpose of this study was to ascertain whether hypertension exercise can lower blood pressure in hypertensive patients at at Turots Al Islamy Hospital, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The study employed a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest research design. A total of 44 respondents were selected using purposive sampling. For the intervention, researchers utilized videos and leaflets as research instruments. The exercise sessions lasted 15-20 minutes, performed three times a week for two consecutive weeks. Ethical clearance was obtained before the study commenced. Data analysis involved descriptive statistics, normality tests, and the Wilcoxon test. The study found that hypertension exercise was effective in reducing hypertension, with an average reduction of 15.49 mmHg in systolic pressure and 8.19 mmHg in diastolic pressure. The findings of this study can be valuable for healthcare professionals, offering an innovative approach to hypertension management in both hospital and community practice, thereby enhancing chronic illness care.

This editorial examines the ethical considerations surrounding email communication in publication, including confidentiality, tone, and content. The article discusses the importance of maintaining confidentiality and avoiding conflicts of interest, as well as the need for clear and respectful communication. Furthermore, this work explores the role of email in peer review, editorial decision-making, and author-editor communication and highlight potential pitfalls and best practices. Establishing guidelines for email ethics can promote transparency, accountability, and professionalism in the publication process. It also can enhance the credibility and reliability of published research in research. Along with that, this editorial provided discussion and guide stakeholders in directing the complexities of email communication. In the context of publishing innovations in health, email communication serves to facilitate collaboration, peer review, and editorial decision-making. For instance, when submitting a manuscript to a health innovation journal, authors rely on email to communicate with editors and reviewers. A breach of confidentiality or unprofessional tone in these interactions can undermine the integrity of the publication process and potentially delay or jeopardize publication. In health innovation research, the accuracy and reliability of findings are crucial for public health policy and practice.

Abstract

Adolescence is a period when individuals undergo numerous changes, including physical, psychological, and emotional shifts. Many issues arise during this stage due to adolescents' inability to regulate their emotions. Therefore, this project was conducted with the goal of enhancing adolescents' emotion regulation abilities. The study involved 36 participants ranging in age from 13 to 15 years old. The participants were students from Junior High School Hasanuddin 06 Semarang, Indonesia. The activities were performed using a conventional approach that focused on interaction between the presenter and the audience. It incorporated active learning methods, specifically interactive question-and-answer sessions and discussions. Data during study was analysed by using Paired T-test. The research results show that there is an increase in knowledge about emotion regulations among the junior high school student population (p<0.05). This finding demonstrates that the psychoeducation increased the students' knowledge and understanding of emotion and how to regulate emotions. Therefore, the results of this program can serve as a foundation for psychologists to use psychoeducation as an innovation or approach to address emotional regulation issues, particularly among adolescents.

Abstract

High-altitude environments can impact uric acid levels due to factors like lower oxygen levels, dietary habits, and lifestyle changes. This phenomenon made it essential to investigate these dynamics in mountainous regions. Women living on mountainsides may have unique risk factors for hyperuricemia and related health issues. However, studies on this topic were limited in the literature. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between physical activity, dietary patterns, and blood uric acid levels in menopausal women. Employing a descriptive analytic approach with a correlational design, data was collected using a cross-sectional method from a sample of 60 women living on the mountainside in Temanggung, Central Java, Indonesia. The collected data was analysed using multiple linear regression and chi-square tests. The multiple linear regression analysis, examining physical activity and dietary patterns in relation to blood uric acid levels obtained a statistically significant (p<0.05). This finding indicates a significant relationship between both physical activity and dietary patterns and blood uric acid levels in among menopausal women. Community healthcare workers need to pay particular attention to those living on the mountainside, as these residents are often geographically distant from essential healthcare facilities. Keywords: Community health, dietary patterns, menopausal women, mountainside population, physical activity, uric acid
