Abstract

Staphylococcus epidermidis is an opportunistic bacterium that can cause infections, particularly in individuals with weakened immune systems. The increasing resistance to antibiotics has encouraged the use of medicinal plants such as soursop leaves (Annona muricata L.), which contain antibacterial compounds. This study aims to evaluate the antibacterial effectiveness of soursop leaf extract against the growth of Staphylococcus epidermidis at concentrations of 50%, 75%, and 100%. The study specifically investigated the inhibition zones formed at each concentration (50%, 75%, and 100%) of Annona muricata L. extract against Staphylococcus epidermidis, and compared the antibacterial activity across these three concentrations. This research used a laboratory experimental design with the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method to assess the antibacterial activity. The extract was prepared using 96% ethanol and tested at the concentrations stated. Gentamicin 10 μg was used as a positive control, while sterile distilled water served as the negative control. The inhibition zones were observed after 24 hours of incubation at 37°C. The results showed that soursop leaf extract at 50% and 75% concentrations produced inhibition zones categorized as resistant. At 100% concentration, the inhibition zone ranges from resistant to intermediate. The comparison across all three concentrations indicates that the 100% concentration demonstrated notable antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus epidermidis.

Abstract

Striae gravidarum is a common skin concern after pregnancy, characterized by dermal atrophy and changes in color, texture, and elasticity. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a regenerative treatment that has shown promise in improving skin quality affected by hormonal and mechanical changes postpartum. This case report presents a 26-year-old female patient with striae gravidarum across the abdominal region following her first pregnancy. The patient received a single session of intradermal PRP injection, followed by clinical evaluation one month later. Clinical improvement was noted through both qualitative and quantitative assessments. Visually, there was fading of striae color from dark brown to light brown, surface smoothing, and increased skin elasticity. The modified Sawetz score improved from 10 to 7, while the Davey distribution score remained unchanged at 8. Qualitative evaluation indicated significant aesthetic improvement. This happens because changes in clinical aspects often occur before changes in distribution. A patient satisfaction questionnaire completed after one month showed maximum scores across all domains, reflecting high acceptance and satisfaction with the procedure. No adverse effects were reported. In conclusion, PRP appears to be a safe, well-tolerated, and effective option for early improvement of striae gravidarum. Greater benefits may be expected with multiple sessions. Further studies are recommended to support these findings in broader populations

Abstract

Hypertension is a condition when an individual has blood pressure of 140/90 mmHg or more. Physiological and psychological changes during the aging process cause the elderly to tend to experience hypertension. Hypertension not only affects physical conditions but also affects the psychological condition of the elderly, namely it can cause anxiety. One of the factors that affects anxiety is self-efficacy . Improving self-efficacy is crucial for enhancing the elderly’s quality of life. This study aims to determine the relationship between self-efficacy and anxiety levels in the elderly with a history of hypertension in private elderly homes in Semarang City. This study uses a non-experimental quantitative method with a correlational design. Sampling with a purposive sampling technique obtained 45 respondents, and the correlation test used the Pearson Product Moment test. The results of the anxiety level in the non-anxious category were 19 respondents (42.2%), and the elderly with high self-efficacy were 41 respondents (91.1%). The results of the correlation test obtained a significant value of 0.000, meaning 0.000<0.005. It can be concluded that there is a relationship between self-efficacy and anxiety levels. The suggestions in this study are expected to provide additional information that self-efficacy is important for reducing anxiety levels.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease with a high prevalence among the elderly and requires long-term management. Older adults with DM often face challenges such as cognitive decline, physical limitations, and comorbidities, which can hinder adherence to therapy, making family support a crucial factor influencing medication compliance. This study aimed to examine the relationship between family support and medication adherence among elderly patients with DM at the Kartasura Community Health Center. A quantitative method with a cross-sectional design and a simple random sampling technique was employed, involving 91 respondents selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Research instruments included a family support questionnaire and a modified Hill-Bone questionnaire, which had been tested for validity and reliability in previous studies. The results showed that most respondents were aged 60–69 years, female, junior high school graduates, self-employed, married, and had lived with DM for 1–5 years. The majority received good family support (79.1%) and demonstrated high medication adherence (96.7%), and the Spearman test indicated a significant relationship between family support and medication adherence (p = 0.001). In conclusion, family support plays a vital role in improving medication compliance among elderly patients with DM; therefore, healthcare professionals are encouraged to actively involve families in diabetes care programs, provide education for caregivers, and develop community-based interventions that strengthen family engagement to enhance adherence and health outcomes in elderly populations.

Abstract

Managing non-communicable diseases, particularly diabetes and hypertension, requires a blend of pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions, including enhanced physical activity. The Prolanis exercise program, created by BPJS, is a promotive-preventive initiative aimed at fostering healthy lifestyle modifications through consistent physical activity and health education. The Poltekkes Kemenkes Yogyakarta Primary Clinic has implemented this program for individuals with hypertension and diabetes; however, the participation rate requires enhancement. This study seeks to examine the determinants affecting participant engagement in Prolanis Exercise through the Health Belief Model (HBM) framework. This research is a cross-sectional qualitative research with a sample of 40 participants which was then analyzed using the linear regression method. Results show that most HBM constructsperceived susceptibility, severity, benefits, barriers, and cues to actiondo not significantly influence participation. Only self-efficacy demonstrated a positive but marginally significant effect while the promotive-preventive approach showed a significant negative relationship with participation. The research results indicate that the majority of HBM constructs such as perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, and cues to action do not have a significant relationship with the level of participation in the Prolanis exercise activities at the clinic. However, there are serious drawbacks to the existing promotive-preventive strategy, which highlights the need to enhance health communication approaches to be more participative, interactive, and in line with patients' needs and sociocultural context. This study highlights the importance of redesigning promotive-preventive strategies toward more participatory, context-sensitive, and empowerment-oriented health communication models, providing valuable insights for policymakers and primary healthcare providers in developing more effective community-based interventions for non-communicable disease management.

Abstract

In an era of global competition and increasing societal demands, the quality of healthcare services and patient satisfaction are important indicators of hospital quality. Nurses are the healthcare workers with the highest frequency of interaction with patients in inpatient wards, and communication is crucial. Effective and high-quality communication is key to nurses' success in carrying out their roles and functions to improve patient satisfaction. This study aims to examine the relationship between nurses’ therapeutic communication and patient satisfaction in the inpatient ward. This study employs a descriptive correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample used was 67 inpatients who were selected proportionally based on the number of patients in each treatment room using a proportional random sampling technique. A questionnaire was used as the measurement tool to measure therapeutic communication and patient satisfaction. Data analysis was conducted using Fisher’s Exact Test.The study indicated a significant relationship between nurses' therapeutic communication and patient satisfaction in the inpatient ward. Therefore, hospitals are strongly recommended to provide regular training and incorporate this skill into nurse performance evaluations to systematically improve the overall quality of care and institutional reputation.

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) cases are rising in Magelang City, yet current reporting lacks distribution maps, hindering identification of high-risk areas. This quantitative descriptive study, therefore, aimed to analyze DHF distribution in Magelang City (2020-2024) using a Geographic Information System (GIS) and identify dominant influencing factors. Employing a cross-sectional design, secondary data on DHF cases, rainfall, temperature, humidity, population density, and Larvae Free Rate (LFR) were collected. Data analysis involved spatial methods with QGIS and statistical methods (Geographically Weighted Regression/GWR) via RStudio. Results showed climate factors (rainfall, temperature, humidity) and population density exhibited homogeneous patterns, not significantly explaining DHF case variations. While LFR was generally high (>90%), a positive anomaly in 2023 saw high LFR followed by increased cases. The DHF distribution pattern fluctuated, peaking in 2022. In conclusion, none of the studied factors (climate, population density, LFR) were identified as significant dominant influences on DHF distribution. LFR anomalies suggest program interventions responding to high caseloads. DHF distribution is likely due to complex interactions of other unstudied factors (e.g., PSN effectiveness, behavior, sanitation, community knowledge). GIS remains valuable for data driven DHF prevention planning.

Abstract

Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is one of the major obstetric complications responsible for approximately 75% of maternal deaths globally, particularly in low-income countries. This condition not only increases maternal morbidity and mortality but also contributes to higher needs for blood transfusion, prolonged hospitalization, and greater healthcare burden. The incidence of PPH at Dr. Soebandi Regional Hospital, Jember, reached 27%, the highest among other delivery complications in the regency. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors associated with PPH. An analytic hospital-based case-control study was conducted from January to November 2021 involving 88 mothers with PPH and 88 mothers without PPH based on medical records from 2018–2019. Antenatal factors included maternal age, anemia, birth interval, parity, and history of PPH, while intrapartum factors consisted of chorioamnionitis, labor induction, duration of labor, episiotomy, and delivery method. Data were analyzed using chi-square and logistic regression tests with a significance level of α=0.05. The results showed that maternal age >35 years (OR=4.7; 95%CI:2.35–9.82), anemia, and previous history of hemorrhage were significant risk factors. Chorioamnionitis, labor induction, and episiotomy also increased the risk, while cesarean delivery was protective (OR=0.19; 95%CI:0.08–0.45). Prevention efforts should focus on promoting pregnancy at a healthy reproductive age, improving adherence to iron supplementation, and strengthening the quality of delivery services in healthcare facilities.
