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. Keywords: Behavioural science, emotional regulation, psychoeducation, psychological issues, teenagers

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

Abstract

The growing of scholarly publication in health demands that journal editors possess more than just subject-matter expertise in the field. They must demonstrate a mastery of academic writing to maintain the research integrity and impact of their publications. A well-written and well-presented article makes it easier for researchers to understand its content and increases the potential for higher citations. Therefore, it is important for journal editors to provide extra attention to every submitted manuscript, particularly those that have been accepted and are awaiting publication. At this present, articles discussing the urgency of academic writing mastery for editors remain scarce; thus, this editorial will address this gap by providing examples within the domain of health innovation. The editorial article explores the role of editors as both gatekeepers of knowledge and facilitators of scientific discourse. It argues that mastery for an editor involves a dual principle such as the technical ability to refine complex arguments for clarity and precision and the pedagogical insight required to provide constructive feedback to authors. The article identifies the basic competencies necessary for editorial process by looking at the current trends in peer review and manuscript preparation. These include a deep understanding of disciplinary conventions, the ability to identify subtle rhetorical shifts that affect the validity of claims, and a commitment to linguistic inclusivity in health innovation research. Furthermore, the discussion addresses how an editor’s mastery of structure and flow can significantly enhance a journal's citation impact and readability. The article suggests that formalizing writing mastery within editorial training programs is essential for those who deep dive into publication world. When editors function as master practitioners of the written word, they do more than simply process submissions. They elevate the quality of the writing to make sure that research is communicated with the transparency and power as it deserves.

Abstract

Kidney function damage in adolescents can be influenced by lifestyle behaviors and family risk factors. However, limited studies in Indonesia assessed the risk factor of kidney injury among adolescents. Therefore, this study aims to describe the lifestyles that potentially trigger early kidney function damage among junior high school students. The research employed a descriptive observational design with a quantitative approach. The sample consisted of 60 students selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected via questionnaires covering eating and drinking patterns, physical activity, smoking habits, family medical history, and mild symptoms of kidney disorders, which were then analyzed using descriptive statistics.  The results showed that while most respondents were in the "good" category overall, several risk factors were still identified. Specifically, 51.7% of respondents did not meet daily water intake requirements, and 56.7% frequently consumed salty foods. Physical activity was dominated by low to moderate categories, with 55.0% not exercising routinely and 71.7% failing to meet the minimum physical activity requirement of 150 minutes per week. The majority of respondents were non-smokers, though a small percentage engaged in light smoking. A family history of hypertension was found in 46.7% of respondents, and diabetes in 13.3%. Furthermore, some respondents reported mild symptoms such as changes in urination, itching, fatigue, and concentration difficulties. The study concludes that there is a combination of unhealthy lifestyle behaviors, family risk factors, and early symptoms that potentially trigger kidney function disorders in adolescents. Therefore, promotive and preventive efforts through health education and the cultivation of healthy living habits starting from school age are necessary to preserve kidney function in the future. Keywords: Acute kidney injury, eating and drinking patterns, medical history, physical activity, smoking habits, symptoms of kidney failure

Abstract

The modernization of Intensive Care Units (ICUs) through digital transformation is essential for enhancing patient safety and optimizing clinical efficiency. This paper discusses the implementation of "SMART ICU" technologies designed to streamline nursing workflows and improve the precision of patient monitoring. Central to this innovation is the integration of hourly hemodynamic monitoring directly into the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system. By automating data entry, the system minimizes human error, reduces the documentation burden on nursing staff, and provides real-time data visualization for rapid clinical decision-making. Furthermore, the SMART ICU framework introduces automated fluid balance calculations. By leveraging smart algorithms, the system automatically computes fluid status as soon as the patient's weight is updated, ensuring high accuracy in managing critically ill patients who are sensitive to fluid shifts. To support this, the integration of smart beds equipped with built-in weighing scales allows for frequent and non-invasive weight monitoring without the need for manual patient transfer. Together, these integrated features—automated hemodynamic tracking, digitized fluid management, and advanced hardware—create a seamless data ecosystem. Ultimately, the adoption of these SMART ICU technologies is expected to significantly improve clinical outcomes, reduce complications associated with manual monitoring, and allow healthcare providers to focus more on direct bedside patient care.

Abstract

Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycaemia, which can lead to severe microvascular and macrovascular complications over time. These issues typically emerge from suboptimal disease management, particularly poor glycaemic control. Ineffective T2D management not only fails to regulate blood glucose but also accelerates vascular complications such as Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD), which can be clinically measured through a decline in the Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI). Consequently, monitoring both HbA1c and ABI is essential for tracking diabetes progression. This study analysed the correlation between HbA1c levels and ABI values in T2D patients to support the early detection of vascular complications and improve comprehensive disease management. Employing a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design, the study evaluated a population of 163 patients at Ibu Fatmawati Soekarno General Hospital, Surakarta. Purposive sampling was applied to select 62 respondents who met the inclusion criteria: willingness to participate, a confirmed T2D diagnosis, and a history of glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) laboratory testing. Research instruments included a clinical examination sheet, a sphygmomanometer, and a handheld Doppler device. Statistical analysis using Kendall’s tau-b test yielded a p-value of 0.000 (p<0.05). The correlation coefficient of -0.615 indicated a moderately strong negative correlation, demonstrating that higher (poorer) HbA1c levels are significantly associated with lower (worse) ankle-brachial index values. Nurses with expertise in diabetes care must pay close attention to these findings. Innovation is highly imperative to address this issue and effectively prevent diabetic foot ulcer (DFU).

Abstract

The utilization of telemedicine, or remote consultation, has emerged as a pivotal innovation in enhancing primary healthcare, a shift significantly accelerated by the pandemic's push toward digital health adoption. In Indonesia, integrating telemedicine into public health governance remains essential, particularly within public health centers (Puskesmas) and under the national health insurance (Jaminan Kesehatan Nasional [JKN]) scheme. This article examines the challenges and opportunities of implementing telemedicine within Indonesia’s primary healthcare ecosystem, focusing on policy design, regulatory frameworks, and administrative hurdles. Employing a qualitative narrative literature review approach, this study synthesized a total of 26 articles. The selected sources were evaluated using thematic and descriptive analysis to identify core implementation themes. The findings suggest that while telemedicine enhances healthcare access, administrative efficiency, and citizen engagement, critical governance challenges—such as digital inequality, data privacy concerns, and a lack of standardized implementation guidelines—persist. Government regulatory efforts during the pandemic only partially addressed these issues, meaning that long-term integration will heavily depend on strengthened institutional coordination and consistent policy frameworks. Ultimately, this research contributes to the broader discourse on public sector innovation and health governance by offering actionable policy recommendations to support the equitable and effective adoption of telemedicine across Indonesia Keywords: Healthcare policy, Indonesia, JKN, primary healthcare, public service
