Abstract

Background: Dental caries in children is a global health issue, particularly in lower-income countries. Exposure to tobacco smoke is one of the major risk factors. In Indonesia, where smoking is prevalent, children exposed to passive smoke face a higher risk of dental caries. Method: A systematic review was conducted, focusing on studies published between 2019 and 2024. Literature was selected using specific keywords, with cross-sectional studies emphasizing the correlation between passive smoking and dental caries in children. Results: Of the 11 selected studies, 9 demonstrated a significant correlation between passive smoking and dental caries, with P-values below 0.05. However, the two studies showed no significant relationship, potentially due to small sample sizes or other external factors like diet or hygiene. Conclusion: Exposure to cigarette smoke significantly increases the risk of dental caries in children, necessitating public health interventions to reduce exposure and prevent oral health problems.

Abstract

Background: Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from sunlight can cause various skin problems, including sunburn, hyperpigmentation, and premature aging. Natural-based sunscreens are an innovative alternative to synthetic sunscreens, which may have side effects such as irritation and allergic reactions. Dragon’s blood (Daemonorops draco (Willd.) Blume) is known for its strong antioxidant properties due to its flavonoid content, particularly dracorhodin, which has the potential to be formulated as a sunscreen. This study aims to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of jernang resin sunscreen in providing UV protection and improving skin moisture and brightness. Method: A clinical trial was conducted involving 30 volunteers aged 18–50 years with normal skin and no history of allergies or skin diseases. The study included irritation tests, hedonic evaluations, skin brightness assessments, moisture level analysis using a Skin Analyzer, and UV protection effectiveness using a UV Camera over 30 days. The statistical analysis was performed using One-Way ANOVA and Duncan's test for significant differences. Results: The results showed that the jernang resin sunscreen exhibited significant UV protection, maintaining its effectiveness for 30 days. It also enhanced skin moisture and brightness compared to the control group. The hedonic test revealed high acceptability regarding color, texture, and aroma. The irritation test indicated no significant adverse reactions, confirming the product's safety. Conclusion: Dragon’s blood sunscreen has demonstrated excellent potential as an effective and safe natural alternative for UV protection, with added benefits of improving skin hydration and brightness. Further research is recommended to optimize its formulation for commercial use.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension is one of the leading non-communicable diseases causing global mortality, with an increasing prevalence, including in Indonesia. Both pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches are employed in managing hypertension. One non-pharmacological therapy is the administration of celery leaf decoction (Apium graveolens L.), which contains active compounds such as flavonoids and phthalides with potential blood pressure-lowering effects. Additionally, Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) techniques are effective in reducing blood pressure through physical and mental relaxation. Method: The study employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest without control group approach. The subjects were hypertensive patients at Adhyaksa Clinic, selected through purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results: The abstract contains background (a brief description of the problem and research objectives) methods used, the results of the research, and conclusions (indicate the main conclusions). Conclusion: The majority of respondents were male (71.4%), aged 41–45 years (42.9%), held a bachelor's degree (85.7%), and worked as prosecutors (66.7%). The average systolic and diastolic blood pressures before the intervention were 149.52 mmHg and 89.52 mmHg, respectively, which decreased to 126.19 mmHg and 74.29 mmHg after the intervention. The analysis showed that celery leaf decoction and PMR movements were effective in reducing blood pressure, with a p-value of 0.000 (< 0.05).

Abstract

Background: Children who are abused are prone to delayed growth and development, including the development of independent Activities Daily Living (ADL). Self-help skills are motor skills that can help children to fulfill basic needs independently through Activities Daily Living (ADL). Therefore, adults around them, including caregivers in orphanages, need to teach self-help skills to improve children's ADL independence. Objectives: This study aims to determine the effect of self-help skills on Activities Daily Living (bathing, brushing teeth, personal hygiene, toileting, dressing, and eating) independence in pre-school children with child abuse which is measured by ADLIC (Activities of Daily Living Iranian Children). Methods: Respondents in this study were pre-school children with child abuse who were given self-help skills with a total of 36 respondents divided into intervention and control groups. The research design used a quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent control group pre-post test. The bivariate analysis used in bathing, brushing teeth, personal hygiene, and toileting variables was paired t-test, while the variables of dressing and eating was used Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Results: The p-value result in the intervention group is 0.000 (<0.05) which indicates that there is a difference in ADL ability from before and after the intervention. In the control group, the p-value> 0.05 was obtained, indicating that there was no difference between ADL abilities before and after. There is a significant average increase in the intervention group compared to the control group. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that there are average increase in the independence of Activities Daily Living (ADL) in pre-school children with child abuse in the intervention group after being given treatment in the form of self-help skills. Therefore, it is hoped that all parties involved in the care of children with a history of child abuse are able to minimize the impact that occurs due to child abuse and understand the concept of self-help skills that support the development of the independence of ADL.
