Abstract

According to World Health Organization (WHO) data, 5–25% of preschool-aged children have mild brain dysfunction, such as fine motor impairments, which is a common cause of preschool developmental failure.  According to data from the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), up to 1,375,000 out of every 5 million toddlers had both fine motor and gross motor developmental impairments. The capacity to move smoothly is known as fine motor development, and it has an impact on cognitive development. This study aims to determine the effect of grain collage media stimulation on the fine motor development of children aged 5-6 years at Kharis Kids Tanjung Gusta Kindergarten in 2023. This type of research is a pre-experiment with a one group pretest-posttest design. The population in this study were all students at Kharis Kids Tanjung Gusta Kindergarten aged 5-6 years as many as 20 students in the 2023 Academic Year who will be studied, the sampling technique used was Total Sampling. The research instrument used KPSP (Pre-Screening Development Questionnaire) which was assessed before and after grain collage stimulation on the picture pattern. The results of the study showed that the Wilcoxon statistical test revealed a significant value of 0.001 (p-value <0.05). This study discovered that children's fine motor development was significantly impacted by the use of grain collage.  It is expected that parents of children between the ages of five and six will be able to keep an eye on their development in accordance with their age in order to optimize their health.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. TB patients often face challenges related to changes in body image, which are influenced by physical, economic, social, and psychological factors. Physically, patients may experience drastic weight loss, shortness of breath, paleness, and persistent coughing. Economically, TB can lead to a decrease in employment and income. Socially, it can result in stigma as part of a broader social process. Psychologically, TB can increase emotional stress and feelings of disappointment. These changes in body image can also impact a patient’s self-esteem. This study aims to examine the relationship between body image and self-esteem among TB patients at Puskesmas (Community Health Centers) in Yogyakarta City. This was a quantitative study using a cross-sectional design. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. A total of 56 respondents over the age of 15, all undergoing TB treatment and resistant to TB medication, participated in the study. Data were analyzed using the Spearman Rank correlation test. The results of the Spearman Rank test showed a p-value of 0.847 (>0.05), indicating that there is no significant relationship between body image and self-esteem in TB patients at Puskesmas in Yogyakarta City. It can be concluded that body image is not significantly related to self-esteem among TB patients in this setting. Nevertheless, respondents continued their treatment regularly and maintained both their body image and self-esteem.

Abstract

The implementation of electronic medical records (EMR) is mandatory in Indonesia to improve efficiency and service quality. However, challenges remain in information quality and facility conditions. This study employed a mixed-methods approach with a concurrent embedded design, conducted from June to September 2024. Quantitative data were collected through a survey of 116 outpatient EMR users and analyzed using Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 4.1.0.6. Qualitative data gathered through interviews, were analyzed thematically. The result showed that five out of six hypotheses were accepted. Information quality significantly influenced information satisfaction, performance expectations, attitude, overall satisfaction, and net benefits. However, facility conditions did not significantly affect attitude. Qualitative findings confirmed these results and emphasized the importance of information quality, ease of access, efficiency, and infrastructure improvements in ensuring system effectiveness. EMR implementation is beneficial but requires improvements in system usability, facility support, and periodic evaluation are necessary.

Abstract

Malnutrition remains a persistent public health issue in Indonesia, with the government yet to fully address the problem. In 2021, the prevalence of stunting in Indonesia decreased from 24.4% to 21.6% in 2022, with a national target of reducing it to 14% by 2024. In Trageh Public Health Center, the prevalence of stunting was recorded at 6.52% in 2023, while cases of wasting and underweight were 3.13% and 3.16%, respectively. This study aims to analyze the correlation between gender and nutritional status in toddlers with stunting. The research employed a correlational analytic design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of all toddlers (n = 243), with a sample size of 151 determined through simple random sampling. Univariate data analysis utilized frequency distribution tables, while bivariate analysis was conducted using Linear Regression with a significance level of α = 0.05. The findings revealed that nearly half of the respondents (n = 65; 43.05%) were female and classified as normal (non-stunted). Additionally, the majority of toddlers had good nutritional status and were not stunted (n = 93; 61.59%). Statistical analysis using Spearman's correlation test yielded ρ = 0.651, indicating no significant relationship between gender and stunting, whereas the correlation between nutritional status and stunting was statistically significant (ρ = 0.000).

Abstract

Anemia remains a significant contributor to the rising maternal mortality rate (MMR) in recent years. In the Special Region of Yogyakarta, the prevalence of anemia among pregnant women increased from 14.23% in 2017 to 16.5% in 2021. Previous studies have shown that anemia during pregnancy may result in adverse maternal and fetal outcomes, including fetal growth restriction, premature delivery, low birth weight, congenital anomalies, and elevated risks of neonatal and perinatal mortality. This study aims to analyze the relationship between maternal age, interpregnancy interval, and nutritional status based on Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC), and the case of anemia among third-trimester pregnant women at Puskesmas (Public Health Center) Tegalrejo, Yogyakarta. A retrospective case–control design was used, involving 86 pregnant women with anemia (cases) and 86 without anemia (controls). Statistical analysis showed significant associations between all three factors and the case of anemia. At a 0.05 significance level, 70 respondents (81.4%) were of high-risk maternal age (<20 years or >35 years) (p = 0.000; OR = 13.542; 95% CI: 6.508–28.179); 62 respondents (72.1%) had a short interpregnancy interval (<2 years) (p = 0.000; OR = 7.996; 95% CI: 4.046–15.802); and 56 respondents (65.1%) had Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) indicated by a MUAC of <23.5 cm (p = 0.000; OR = 6.160; 95% CI: 3.157–12.020). These findings confirm that maternal age, short interpregnancy intervals, and poor nutritional status are significant determinants of anemia in the third trimester.

Abstract

Osteoarthritis is more common in menopausal women due to decreased estrogen levels, which impacts joint health. Due to the high prevalence of OA in menopausal women with a high BMI, this study was conducted to determine the correlation between BMI and the incidence of OA in this group. The purpose of this study is to identify the correlation between Body Mass Index (BMI) and the incidence of osteoarthritis in menopausal women at Sinjai District Hospital during July-September 2024 period. This study applied an observational analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 50 menopausal women selected through consecutive sampling techniques. Data were collected through interviews, direct BMI measurements, and medical record reviews. Analysis was performed univariately and bivariately using the Chi-Square test. Based on the univariate analysis involving 50 respondents, it showed that most OA patients had an obese BMI (46%), while the normal category was only found in 26% of patients. Bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test showed a significant relationship between BMI and OA (p-value = 0.007, p < 0.05). These results indicate that post-menopausal women with a BMI > 25 (obese category) have a higher risk of developing OA compared to those with a normal BMI. Conclusion: The conclusion of this study is that there is a significant relationship between BMI and OA in postmenopausal women, in which obesity is an important risk factor. This study recommends public education about the importance of maintaining ideal body weight as an effort to prevent OA in postmenopausal women, as well as the need for further research to explore the role of estrogen hormone levels in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis.

Abstract

Cuts are a common form of injury caused by trauma from sharp objects such as knives, razor blades, or other sharp objects. In Indonesia, traditional wound treatment is still widely used, one of which is by using Bandotan leaves (Ageratum conyzoides Linn), which is known to have the ability to stop bleeding and accelerate wound healing. In addition, wild honey from Apis dorsata bees also contains various active compounds that can be significant for the wound healing process. Data from Riskesdas (Riset Kesehatan Dasar - Basic Health Research) showed that the prevalence of cut/slash/stab wound cases in South Sulawesi in 2018 reached 27.76%, so an effective and natural alternative treatment is needed. This study aims to determine the content of phytochemical compounds in Bandotan leaf extract and wild honey; and compare their effectiveness on cut healing in mice (Mus musculus), both macroscopically and histologically. This study employed a quantitative experimental method with a Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design. The results show that Bandotan leaf extract contains alkaloids, flavonoids, steroids, and saponins; while wild honey contains flavonoids and saponins. Macroscopically, wild honey is more effective in accelerating wound healing than the other groups. However, microscopically, the Bandotan leaf group shows higher epidermal thickness. Complete re-epithelialization occurs in all groups, while keratinization does not only occur in the negative control group. In conclusion, wild honey is more clinically effective in accelerating wound healing, while Bandotan leaves show potential for tissue regeneration based on histology.

Abstract

Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are part of the normal skin flora and are often considered to be minimally pathogenic or even non-pathogenic. However, in certain cases, CoNS bacteria can lead to increased morbidity and mortality, particularly in high-risk patients. This study aims to examine the inhibition zones of Staphylococcus epidermidis following treatment with bilimbi (Averrhoa bilimbi L.) leaf extract at concentrations of 50%, 75%, and 100%, and to compare the inhibition zones across these three concentrations. This research employed a laboratory experimental design using the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. The results showed that the inhibition zones for Staphylococcus epidermidis treated with 50% extract concentration were 12.78 mm, 13.01 mm, and 13.10 mm, classified as intermediate. At a 75% concentration, the inhibition zones were 13.07 mm, 13.40 mm, and 15.12 mm, ranging from intermediate to sensitive. Meanwhile, the 100% concentration produced inhibition zones of 15.64 mm, 16.89 mm, and 17.1 mm, classified as sensitive. A comparative analysis of the inhibition zones indicated that the 100% concentration produced the largest zone of inhibition among the three concentrations tested.

Abstract

Brazilin is a flavonoid found in secang (sappan) wood extract (Caesalpinia sappan L) currently undergoing clinical trials in phase 2 for the treatment of thalassemia patients. It is recognized for its antioxidant effects and its efficacy as a strong iron chelator, facilitating the binding and excretion of excess iron in the bloodstream of patients with thalassemia. This flavonoid compound may serve as a Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) inhibitor through the EPO/EPOR/JAK2/STAT5 pathway, which is responsible for splenomegaly (enlarged spleen). This study aims to investigate the mechanism by which sappan wood metabolite chemicals (brazilin) inhibit JAK2 in silico. This inhibition is expected to reduce splenomegaly in thalassemia patients and serve as an alternative to ruxolitinib (conventional medications). The pharmacokinetic profile of the ligand is predicted according to Lipinski's rule, while the binding energy (ΔG), initiation constant, and chemical bonds are examined using molecular docking with AutoDock v.4.25. This study successfully determined that brazilin, with a binding energy of -8.37 kcal/mol, is comparable to ruxolitinib, which has a binding energy of -8.71 kcal/mol. This finding shows that brazilin derived from sappan wood contains bioactive chemicals with potential JAK2 inhibitory activities. This finding establishes a foundation for further research aimed at developing new therapeutic agents for the treatment of splenomegaly in β-thalassemia and associated disorders.

Abstract

At Puskesmas (Primary Health Center) Madukoro, in May 2024, it was found that out of 46 patients undergoing antiretroviral (ARV) therapy, 10 had a history of lost to follow-up behavior, either temporarily or permanently. This represents 21.7% of patients lost to follow-up, based on the total number of patients who had ever received ARV treatment. This figure exceeds the World Health Organization (WHO) standard, which states that no more than 20% of patients should be lost to follow-up within one year. This study aims to identify the factors influencing lost to follow-up behavior among HIV/AIDS patients undergoing ARV therapy at Madukoro Public Health Center, North Lampung Regency. A descriptive-analytic design was used, employing a quantitative research method with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of all 46 HIV/AIDS patients at the health center receiving ARV treatment, with total sampling applied. The findings revealed a significant relationship between perceived vulnerability and lost to follow-up behavior (p = 0.000), perceived severity and lost to follow-up behavior (p = 0.000), and perceived barriers and lost to follow-up behavior (p = 0.001). However, there was no significant relationship between perceived benefits and lost to follow-up behavior (p = 0.169). There was also a significant relationship between self-efficacy and lost to follow-up behavior (p = 0.001), as well as between environmental support and lost to follow-up behavior (p = 0.000). It is recommended that the Head of Madukoro Public Health Center disseminate the results of this study to the staff responsible for the HIV P2 Program, healthcare workers, and other employees in order to develop appropriate strategies or work programs to prevent lost to follow-up cases among HIV/AIDS patients.
