Abstract

Workers involved in revitalization projects are vulnerable to reduced productivity due to physically demanding tasks, time constraints, and challenging environmental conditions such as heat, noise, and long hours. These factors can lead to fatigue, stress, metabolic disorders, and poor nutritional intake, which in turn reduce endurance and focus. This study examines the influence of energy intake and nutritional status on work productivity among workers at the Merdeka Square Revitalization Project in Medan City. A quantitative cross-sectional design was used, involving 77 respondents. Data were analyzed using univariate, bivariate, and multivariate logistic regression tests. After controlling for confounders, both energy intake and nutritional status significantly affected work productivity (p < 0.05). Although excess energy intake was not statistically significant (Exp(B) = 1.319; 95% CI: 0.375–4.642), it still posed a 1.3 times greater risk of reduced productivity compared to adequate intake. In contrast, insufficient energy intake was significant (p = 0.030; Exp(B) = 5.375), with a 5.4 times greater risk of lower productivity. Nutritional status, both overnutrition (p = 0.009; Exp(B) = 10.039) and undernutrition (p = 0.002; Exp(B) = 14.898), significantly affected productivity. The Nagelkerke R² value of 0.354 indicates that these variables explain 35.4% of the variance in work productivity.

Abstract

Adolescence is a critical developmental stage marked by identity formation and heightened susceptibility to peer influence. This study examined the relationship between peer relationships and juvenile delinquency among 96 adolescents aged 15–21 years, selected through accidental sampling. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed with Pearson correlation and simple linear regression. Results indicated that peer relationships significantly influenced juvenile delinquency (p = 0.003, r = -0.301), with higher-quality peer relationships associated with lower levels of delinquent behavior. These findings highlight the importance of school-based interventions and peer mentoring programs to promote supportive peer environments and reduce deviant behaviors among adolescents.

Abstract

Adolescents in the digital era face opportunities and challenges in maintaining healthy reproductive behavior due to easy access to information and social media influence. This quantitative cross-sectional study surveyed 320 high school students aged 15–19 in Surabaya, Indonesia, using stratified random sampling. Data collected from April–July 2025 via self-administered questionnaires were analyzed with descriptive statistics, chi-square tests, correlations, and logistic regression. The findings showed that 62.5% of adolescents had good reproductive behavior, which was significantly associated with high knowledge (73.3% vs. 36.8%, p < 0.001), positive attitudes (71.4% vs. 45.5%, p = 0.001), strong parental guidance (80.6% vs. 39.3%, p < 0.001), supportive peer influence (73.7% vs. 46.2%, p = 0.002), and controlled digital media exposure (80.0% vs. 41.4%, p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis identified strong parental guidance (AOR = 3.65; 95% CI: 2.12–6.28) and controlled digital media exposure (AOR = 3.21; 95% CI: 1.85–5.58) as the strongest predictors, followed by high knowledge (AOR = 2.45), positive attitudes (AOR = 1.78), and supportive peers (AOR = 1.92). In conclusion, adolescent reproductive behavior is shaped by a combination of individual, family, peer, and digital factors, with parental guidance and digital literacy emerging as the most critical protective elements. Strengthening family involvement and promoting responsible digital engagement are recommended to foster healthy adolescent reproductive behavior.

Abstract

Uterine leiomyoma is the most prevalent benign neoplasm of the female reproductive tract during the reproductive years; however, its precise etiology remains incompletely understood. Age at menarche and parity have been proposed as potential risk factors, although previous studies have reported inconsistent findings. This study aimed to evaluate the association between age at menarche and parity with the occurrence of uterine leiomyoma. This research employed a case-control design, in which uterine leiomyoma constituted the case group and adenomyosis served as the control group, conducted at PKU Muhammadiyah Hospital Surakarta. The study included 113 participants, comprising 73 cases of uterine leiomyoma and 40 cases of adenomyosis as controls, identified through histopathological records from 2023. Data were assessed using Chi-Square and logistic regression analyses. The findings revealed that most respondents experienced menarche at a normal age and were either primiparous or multiparous. Statistical testing demonstrated a significant association between age at menarche (p = 0.007; OR = 1.65, 95% CI = 1.414–1.939) and the incidence of uterine leiomyoma, whereas parity was not significantly associated (p = 0.384; OR = 1.509, 95% CI = 0.596–3.825). Future studies are recommended to include more balanced sample group proportions and additional risk factors to obtain a more comprehensive understanding of uterine leiomyoma etiology.

Abstract

This study aimed to assess the triage management of trauma patients among hospitals in the 5th District of Camarines Sur, Philippines, focusing on the interventions practiced by triage management team members and the relationship between their profiles and applied strategies. Employing a quantitative descriptive research design, data were collected through a validated questionnaire checklist administered to selected triage personnel. Statistical tools such as percentage technique, weighted mean, and chi-square test were utilized to analyze and interpret the data systematically. The findings revealed that hospitals have begun integrating strategic plans to equip triage personnel with essential knowledge and skills, thereby reducing the risks of overtriage and undertriage. Results also emphasized the importance of adopting standardized protocols and the need for a more comprehensive and evidence-based definition of trauma patients requiring specialized care. Furthermore, the study highlighted the significance of emergency preparedness—particularly during mass casualty incidents—through effective personnel deployment and structured triage systems. The introduction of an intervention-based triage management guide was found to enhance decision-making processes and patient prioritization. Future research is recommended to explore the long-term effectiveness of standardized triage training programs, as well as the development of region-specific protocols that consider local healthcare capacities, infrastructure, and challenges. Continued efforts in triage innovation and training evaluation are essential to advance trauma care practices and improve patient outcomes in diverse healthcare settings.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a non-communicable disease with an increasing global prevalence, and the long-term use of synthetic antidiabetic drugs is often associated with adverse side effects. Therefore, the exploration of natural antidiabetic agents with high efficacy and minimal toxicity is urgently needed. Red algae Eucheuma spinosum has been reported to contain bioactive metabolites with various pharmacological activities; however, its antidiabetic and antioxidant potential remains insufficiently explored. This study aimed to evaluate the antidiabetic and antioxidant activities of E. spinosum through integrated in vitro and in silico approaches. Metabolite profiling using LC-HRMS identified 2,373 compounds in the alga extract. Antioxidant assays revealed strong activity with an IC₅₀ value of 97.72 ppm. In vitro antidiabetic assays demonstrated inhibitory activity against α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzymes. Eighteen compounds with the highest abundance were selected for molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations against 1B2Y, 5NN8, and 1CB4 target proteins. The results indicated that Undecyl 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate  and nobiletin exhibited strong binding affinity and stable interactions with all three receptors. These findings suggest that E. spinosum is a promising source of natural antidiabetic and antioxidant compounds, particularly Undecyl 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate  and nobiletin, which warrant further investigation.

Abstract

Smoking has been shown to adversely affect the oral cavity by altering its physiological conditions, thereby promoting the growth of pathogenic microorganisms and increasing the risk of oral diseases. It also reduces salivary pH, rendering it more acidic, and facilitates plaque accumulation. This study aimed to identify the presence of pathogenic microorganisms (Staphylococcus spp., Candida spp., and Entamoeba gingivalis) in the saliva and oral cavity of individuals who smoke. An analytical survey with a cross-sectional design was conducted using 40 samples. Microbial identification was carried out through culture techniques on specific media for bacteria and fungi, while E. gingivalis was detected via direct microscopic observation using safranin staining. 40 samples were analyzed and showed 31 tested positive for at least one of the target microorganisms: Staphylococcus spp., Candida spp., or E. gingivalis, from both saliva and oral swab specimens. Staphylococcus sp. and Candida sp, detected in 13 samples. E. gingivalis was identified in 7 samples. Saliva samples yielded more comprehensive results than oral swabs, suggesting that saliva more accurately reflects the overall microbial condition of the oral cavity.

Abstract

Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP) is a common nosocomial infection among patients receiving mechanical ventilation and is associated with increased morbidity, mortality, and prolonged length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU). Poor oral hygiene is a key contributor to oropharyngeal bacterial colonization, which may facilitate the development of VAP. Miswak (Salvadora persica L.) contains natural antibacterial compounds and has potential as an alternative oral care intervention in nursing practice. This study employed an Evidence-Based Practice case study approach involving a mechanically ventilated patient in the ICU. Oral care using miswak extract was implemented for three consecutive days according to the established nursing care plan. Oral health status was assessed using the Beck Oral Assessment Score (BOAS), while the risk of VAP was evaluated using the Clinical Pulmonary Infection Score (CPIS). Following the intervention, oral hygiene improved significantly, as indicated by a reduction in the BOAS score from 7 to 3. The risk of VAP also decreased, demonstrated by a decline in the CPIS score from 7 (high risk) to 3 (low risk), accompanied by reduced purulent secretions and stable clinical parameters. These findings suggest that oral care using miswak extract is effective in improving oral hygiene and reducing VAP risk and may be recommended as a safe, practical, and evidence-based preventive intervention in ICU nursing practice.

Abstract

Nurses are vital in managing infectious disease outbreaks, yet prolonged exposure to high-stress environments, such as during the COVID-19 pandemic, can impair their sleep and increase depressive symptoms, potentially weakening psychological resilience. This study examined the relationships between sleep disturbances, depressive symptoms, and resilience among nurses working in hemodialysis units in post-pandemic Indonesia. Registered nurses having at least a year of clinical experience participated in a cross-sectional survey that was carried out in West Java between April and June 2023.  The Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) were among the tools used. Mediation analysis using bootstrapping was performed to assess whether resilience mediated the association between sleep disturbances and depressive symptoms. A total of 180 valid responses (76.5% response rate) were analyzed. Most participants (58.33%) held a nursing diploma; only 7% were married. Results showed that both the direct relationship between sleep problems and depressive symptoms and the indirect path via resilience were significant. The direct effect explained 43.21% of the total variance, while indirect effects accounted for 34.17%, with resilience specifically mediating 13.21%. Resilience significantly buffers the negative impact of sleep disturbances on depressive symptoms among hemodialysis nurses. Promoting resilience through targeted interventions could enhance psychological well-being and sleep quality, especially in high-stress clinical environments.

Abstract

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common healthcare-associated infections among bedridden patients using urinary catheters. Proper fulfillment of elimination needs by nurses is considered essential for preventing catheter-associated infections; however, evidence on its relationship to UTI risk remains limited. This study aimed to examine the association between nurses’ compliance with elimination care standard operating procedures (SOPs) and the risk of UTI among bedridden patients. A quantitative study with a cross-sectional design was conducted in an inpatient hospital setting involving 59 nurses and 59 bedridden, catheterized patients. Total sampling was applied to recruit participants. Nurses’ compliance with elimination care SOPs was measured using a validated questionnaire, while UTI risk among patients was assessed using a clinical observation checklist. Data were analyzed through univariate analysis and Fisher’s Exact Test with a significance level of α = 0.05. The findings showed that most nurses demonstrated very high compliance with elimination care SOPs. The majority of patients were categorized as having no UTI risk, while a smaller proportion showed potential risk. Statistical analysis indicated a significant association between nurse compliance and UTI risk (p = 0.028). Patients treated by nurses with higher compliance were less likely to experience UTI risk. These findings emphasize the importance of strengthening nurse compliance through continuous training, supervision, and monitoring to improve patient safety and nursing care quality.
