Abstract

Introduction – As a working mother, there is a responsibility for work, and her role in the household is often a pressure for mothers. Parents, especially mothers, are the individuals who should have the most time with children so that children become close to their mothers. Close relationships with the mother have a significant influence on the future development of the child. While working mothers, their time spent on children and family tends to be shorter. This will be pressure on the mother that can trigger stress. The mother's poor psychological state will also affect the poor interaction between mother and child. It will produce adverse effects, including poor emotional regulation, theory of mind, empathy, bonding, and attachment. The purpose of this study was to find out about working mothers and their relationship to bonding and attachment with children. Methods – In this literature review, articles published within the last five years (2019-2023) are used, written in English, are original research, and the research subjects used are humans, namely working mothers who have children aged 0-12 years. Article search using electronic databases in the form of Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect. Results – In this literature review, articles published within the last five years (2019-2023) are used, written in English, are original research, and the research subjects used are humans, namely working mothers who have children aged 0-12 years. Article search using electronic databases such as Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect. Discuss – Working mothers feel that roles at work and home are all important. Where work will make individuals professional and increase their self-esteem, while her role as a mother at home will meet the needs of her central family, her children; this role is fulfilled by providing physical and emotional comfort and security to her children. Conclusion – Working mothers will increase pressure and stress on mothers caused by many factors, including longer working time, single mothers, lack of financial problems, short maternity leave, and job demands that cause fatigue. These factors will cause poor interaction between mother and child, directly mediating poor bonding and attachment between mother and child. Therefore, balancing the mother's dual roles is essential to form bonds and secure attachments with her child.

Abstract

Introduction – Intellectual disability is one of the most common disabilities of children worldwide, and it becomes a stress burden among parents. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which goals to increase valued action and behaviour in the present moment, has been suggested as an alternative approach. This literature review aimed to explore the effect of acceptance and commitment therapy for parents of children with intellectual disability. Methods – The searches of this literature review were conducted in Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Wiley Library, ranging from 2010 to 2023. The literature search involved articles that focused on the effect of ACT in parents of children with intellectual disability. Results – Four research articles were included. All of the article’s studies are about the use of ACT in parents of children with intellectual disability, but in different interventions and study designs. Discuss – Most parents stated that the struggles of caring for a child with significant behavioural challenges, both emotionally and physically, and the level of isolation they experienced, consequently, was great enough to generate stress. This programme gives a new perspective on their difficulties, enhancing their ability to deal with stress, and enabling parents to maintain their emotional well-being by “getting back on the track” of what parents should be based on their personal values. Conclusion – ACT may play a significant role in helping to improve the psychological well-being of parents with intellectual disability child. However, further investigation with interventions for each group based on precipitating factors is required to evaluate and to predict when the right time is to do this therapy.

Abstract

Introduction: Menopause is a normal phase in a woman's life marked by the discontinuation of menstruation due to hormonal changes, often accompanied by sleep disturbances. These sleep disturbances can negatively impact health and well-being. The global prevalence of sleep disturbances among postmenopausal women is quite significant. Several studies have shown that hypnosis therapy can improve sleep quality in menopausal and postmenopausal women. This review aims to evaluate the effects and benefits of hypnosis therapy on sleep disturbances in menopausal and postmenopausal women through a literature review. We also analyze how various media are used in hypnosis therapy interventions. Methods: This study uses a literature review method by accessing relevant articles through electronic databases such as PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar, focusing on publications from the last 10 years. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied in selecting the articles. Results: Five studies were analyzed, showing that hypnosis therapy using various research methods and types of hypnosis effectively addresses sleep disturbances in menopausal and postmenopausal women. Discuss: Hypnotherapy teletherapy could become a standard form of therapy globally, though there may still be a necessity for traditional face-to-face therapy based on patient preference.11 Teletherapy hypnosis can improve sleep quality by targeting psychological mechanisms such as pre-sleep arousal and reducing worry, paving the way for more effective interventions. Conclusion: The results indicate that different research methods and media types used for hypnosis therapy in the sample show consistent results that hypnosis therapy positively affects reducing sleep disturbances in menopausal and postmenopausal women.

Abstract

Introduction: Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS), a neuropsychiatric emergency, can develop in patients with antipsychotic medications. This is a matter of concern due to the high frequency of psychotic diseases in Indonesia, affecting an estimated 2.6 million people. This paper will examine a case of NMS who exhibited various risk factors and clinical manifestations, which happened in Kediri, a city in Indonesia that lacks of dedicated mental hospital or intensive care unit for mental health. Method: In this paper, we reveal about a case report about a 63-year-old man presented to the emergency room with abrupt onset of fever and cognitive impairment. He took olanzapine and clozapine for schizophrenia, which was not often treated. The patient had gait disturbances, pronounced tremors, rigidity, and autonomous movement of the mouth. Examination results were blood pressure of 88/55 mmHg, pulse 123x/minute, respiratory rate 24x/minute, body temperature 42°C. Supporting investigation results showed leukocytosis, hypokalemia, pneumonia and cardiomegaly. Initial management included discontinuation of neuroleptic drugs, administration of oxygen, rehydration, and symptomatic medications. Results: This is a rare case of NMS in geriatric patient happened in a rural area, Kediri, a small city in Indonesia which experiences higher temperatures in comparison to other cities. This case is quite complex due to the treatment options, a history of poor drug compliance, elderly conditions and comorbidities. Discuss: For both confirmed and suspected instances of NMS, basic treatment suggestions include stopping antipsychotic medication, continuously monitoring vital signs, minimizing extremes in temperature, introducing fluids, correcting electrolyte imbalances, and providing other supportive measures as needed Conclusion: NMS should be closely monitored in psychosis patients with a history of noncompliant medication use and concomitant conditions. To save lives, prompt and adequate medical attention is essential.

Abstract

Introduction: Schizophrenia is a mental disorder, manifested as positive symptoms, negative symptoms, and cognitive dysfunction. Antipsychotic medication is given to treat schizophrenia; however, recently, antipsychotic medication is less effective in improving negative symptoms and cognitive deficits. Several neurotransmitters and neuropeptides are believed to be involved in the mechanism of schizophrenia, one of which is oxytocin. Methods: The author uses the literature review method with international journals limited to the period from 2014 to 2024 that discuss oxytocin as a treatment in schizophrenia patients. Results: Several results of studies showed that schizophrenia therapy using oxytocin improved negative symptoms and cognitive function in schizophrenia patients. These studies are based on previous research, which showed lower concentrations of oxytocin in schizophrenia patients. Discuss: Oxytocin acts as a human behavior regulator, and the oxytocinergic system is involved in the emergence of schizophrenia symptoms. Oxytocin administration through intranasal is chosen to deliver oxytocin because it reaches the central nervous system more easily. Oxytocin administration can improve oxytocin concentration in cerebrospinal fluid. Increasing oxytocin levels is significant in improving negative symptoms and cognitive function in schizophrenia patients. Conclusion: Oxytocin administration intranasally can increase oxytocin concentration to improve negative symptoms and cognitive function in schizophrenia patients.

Abstract

Introduction – Glial cells, including astrocytes, microglia, and oligodendrocytes, are active regulators of neural plasticity, synaptic integrity, and connectivity. Chronic and early-life stress are major risk factors for neuropsychiatric disorders, yet the role of glial histopathology in mediating this vulnerability remains incompletely understood. This thematic narrative review aims to synthesize integrative evidence on stress-induced glial histopathology as a mediator of neuropsychiatric risk, with emphasis on findings from rodent and zebrafish models and their translational implications. Methods – A structured thematic narrative review was conducted across PubMed, Scopus, and Embase for studies published between 2000 and 2025. Inclusion criteria prioritized high-quality experimental research and reviews on glial responses to stress, synaptic alterations, and biomarker potential in rodent and zebrafish models. Results – Evidence consistently demonstrates astrocyte atrophy, microglial activation with pro-inflammatory profiles, and oligodendrocyte dysfunction leading to myelin disruption, collectively contributing to synaptic instability, neuroinflammation, and impaired connectivity. Discuss – Rodent models provide detailed insights into cellular and regional pathology, while zebrafish models offer translational value through high-throughput behavioral and neuroimmune profiling. Species differences in glial structure and stress responsiveness remain a barrier to direct clinical translation. Conclusion – Glial pathology represents a unifying mechanism linking stress exposure to neuropsychiatric vulnerability. Future studies should integrate cross-species, longitudinal designs and translational biomarkers to advance therapeutic strategies for stress-related mental health disorders.

Abstract

Introduction – The elderly who lack a sense of meaning in life and do not live mindfully often experience discomfort that leads to emotional turmoil. This phenomenon highlights the fact that becoming elderly requires both physical and mental preparedness. This search influences one’s mindset and understanding of closeness to God, and it has the potential to enhance one’s spirituality. This paper aimed to examine the mental condition of the elderly through their religious/spiritual aspects – beginning with their search for meaning in life, their independent efforts, and their insight into personal circumstances. Methods – This research was conducted as qualitative research with interpretation in a phenomenological aspect. All participants took part in each session of the interview, which was conducted by the author. All participants’ statements were used as content analysis by Colaizzi’s seven-step analysis. Results – Analysis of the data obtained from the verbatim interview results led to five major themes and 17 sub-themes, which led to the meaning of getting old, self-uncomfortableness, mental condition, the meaning of Allah’s presence, the meaning and need of liqo’. Discuss – The elderly who are mentally prepared for old age, mindful, and who need Allah as the source of life, peace, the beginning, and end of life, will attain a high level of religious/spiritual. That refers to being closer to Allah in of natural way, flowing, and calming need, as if it were a primary need. Conclusion – Elderly individuals with a positive outlook perceive the presence of Allah as the center of life, peace, and the source of both the beginning and end of life. The liqo’ activity helps participants become the best version of themselves and strive to be Muslims with the final designation of husnul khotimah, or a good ending.

Abstract

Introduction: Hypokalemia, defined as a serum potassium level below 3.5 mEq/L, is often overlooked in psychiatric patients despite its clinical significance. Methods: This study examines the prevalence of hypokalemia in psychiatric inpatients at Grhasia Mental Hospital, Yogyakarta, from October to December 2023. A cross-sectional analysis of 365 patient records was conducted. Results: The majority (74.8%) were diagnosed with schizophrenia spectrum and other psychotic disorders. The overall prevalence of hypokalemia was 28.8%, with 4.9% of cases presenting with potassium levels below 3.0 mEq/L. Bivariate analyses using t-tests, ANOVA, and Pearson correlation showed no significant differences or correlations between serum potassium levels and demographic or clinical factors. Discuss: Almost one-third of the total psychiatric inpatients at Grhasia Mental Hospital in Yogyakarta experience hypokalemia. This prevalence rate is much higher compared to the general population, where hypokalemia occurs in only 2-5% overall. This high prevalence indicates that patients with mental disorders have a greater risk of experiencing electrolyte disturbances, which can affect their physical and mental condition. Conclusion: Given the high prevalence, routine electrolyte monitoring in psychiatric inpatients is essential to prevent complications. Further research is needed to explore the impact of antipsychotic medications on potassium regulation and to develop strategies for early detection and management of hypokalemia in psychiatric care.

Abstract

Introduction: Currently, there is a trend of increasing requests for fit-to-work examinations from several institutions regarding their mental health of employees, which are expected to provide some input for actions or decisions, such as termination due to their mental disorder, temporary permit leave, or other forms of assistance. This phenomenon was observed at Professor Dr. Soerojo Mental Health Hospital, Magelang, and Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital, Jakarta, as two hospitals that represent the work situations of the authors. This study aimed to search for a standardized FFD evaluation to release an accurate and objective forensic psychiatry report and minimize the risk of legal conflict and dispute. Methods: This qualitative systematic review used the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses) method. The clinical question was formulated with the PICO model, which focuses on the fit-to-work examination procedure from a forensic psychiatry perspective. The search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, ProQuest, PsycInfo, and Cochrane databases. Results: The search yielded 5 matched articles, which were then analyzed and compared to each other afterwards. The analysis included the steps of the fitness for duty examination procedure and the formulation of opinions based on the examination. Discuss: The stages involved in a psychiatrist's assessment of fitness for work include the examination stage and the formulation of examination results to form an opinion regarding fitness for work to produce an objective forensic psychiatric report. Conclusion: Clinician or forensic psychiatry team must take note of clear and concise examination in forensic psychiatry and give specific recommendations and advice to the referrer if therapy is required, including an explanation of the type and frequency of therapy needed and how recovery will occur. This will help the referrer understand exactly how an individual who is currently unfit for work can become fit for work in the future, as well as explain how symptoms of mental disorders can arise in the work environment and describe the early signs of recurrence.

Abstract

Introduction: Women who marry young experience enormous pressure when problems arise in marriage because they are emotionally and psychologically unprepared, underage, and encouraged to become precocious. This paper aims to review the impact of early marriage, specifically on young women. Methods: The research method employed in this article utilizes a literature review approach, where data derived from literature and document searches are analyzed descriptively. Results: Study of the influence of conflict in young marriages based on research findings, in addition to having negative psychological effects, there are also positive effects in marriage. Discuss: The problems of quarrels that may arise in a husband-and-wife relationship and how to handle them are difficult to overcome due to their immature nature, thinking style, and emotional instability, which can sometimes affect women's mental health. Conclusion: marriage is building a family and starting to establish communication, commitment, economic needs, knowing personality, adjustment, and love (affection). Poor communication between husband and wife, lack of commitment in the relationship, lack of financial independence and still receiving financial support from each other's parents, and lack of understanding of the couple's personality by the wife all have an impact on the quality of the marriage.
