Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic condition with an increasing prevalence worldwide, including in Indonesia. According to IDF data from 2021, the global prevalence of DM was 10.5%, and it is predicted to rise to 12,2% by 2045. Managing DM focuses significantly on controlling postprandial blood sugar levels, as it plays a crucial role in prevention efforts. This study investigated the relationship between dietary and exercise patterns and postprandial blood glucose levels in diabetes mellitus patients at the Kaliwungu Health Center. Using a correlational study design, the research targeted 164 registered DM patients, with 115 participants selected via purposive sampling. Data on diet and exercise were collected through questionnaires, while postprandial blood sugar levels were measured using an electric glucose test. The analysis utilized the Pearson correlation test or the Spearman rho test for non-normally distributed data. The results revealed a p-value of <0,001 (p-value < 0,05) significance level, confirming a significant relationship between diet and exercise patterns and postprandial glucose levels. Contingency coefficients of 0,588 and 0,532 demonstrated a moderately strong association between these variables.

Abstract

Poor personal hygiene during menstruation had a significant impact on morbidity and complications. Lack of menstrual hygiene awareness was influenced by knowledge and attitudes, as well as external factors such as parental, teacher, peer support, and exposure to information. This study aimed to determine the effect of video-based health education on knowledge, attitudes, and personal hygiene practices during menstruation. The study employed an experimental pre-posttest design. The study population consisted of 98 female students. The sample was divided into two groups: a control group and a treatment group. The results showed differences in the mean scores for knowledge (p-value=0,021), attitudes (p-value=0,000), and practices (p-value=0,000). Parental support (p-value=0,000), teacher support (p-value=0,000), and peer support (p-value=0,000) were identified as confounding factors affecting menstrual hygiene. There was a significant difference in the mean scores of knowledge, attitudes, and practices after the video education intervention. It is recommended that adolescent girls develop clean and healthy living habits by consistently maintaining genital hygiene, both during menstruation and outside of it.

Abstract

Pain is a common problem experienced by patients after undergoing a cesarean section. Lavender aromatherapy, which contains active compounds such as linalool and linalyl, was believed to reduce pain due to its analgesic properties and its ability to stimulate the release of endorphins by activating the hypothalamus. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of lavender aromatherapy in reducing post-cesarean section pain at Siti Fatimah Az-Zahra Regional Public Hospital, South Sumatra Province. This study was a quantitative research with a quasi-experimental design using a non-equivalent control group approach. A total of 54 post-cesarean section mothers were selected as participants, with 27 assigned to the experimental group and 27 to the control group. Pain intensity was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Sampling was conducted using a purposive sampling technique, and data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. The results of the Wilcoxon test showed a p-value of 0,000 (p-value<0,05), indicating a significant decrease in post-cesarean section pain following lavender aromatherapy intervention. Lavender aromatherapy can be considered a complementary therapy option for managing postoperative pain after cesarean section.

Abstract

An older adult was defined as someone who experienced the natural aging process, which led to physiological changes including the development of hypertension. It was important for individuals with hypertension to consistently take their medication, as adherence helped to control blood pressure effectively. Self-efficacy, defined as a person's belief in their ability to manage their own health, was a major factor influencing medication adherence. This study aimed to examine the relationship between self-efficacy and medication adherence among older adults with hypertension at Puskesmas Dau, Malang District. The study employed a quantitative correlational design with a cross-sectional approach involving 52 subjects. Data were collected using the Multidimensional Self-Efficacy Scale-Revised (MASES-R) to assess self-efficacy and the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8) to measure medication adherence. The findings indicated a significant positive relationship between self-efficacy and medication adherence in older adults with hypertension at Puskesmas Dau, with a p-value of 0,000. The strength of this relationship was categorized as strong and positive.
