Abstract

Mouthwash is a liquid dosage form used to prevent and treat oral health problems. However, many commercial mouthwashes contain alcohol, which may cause side effects in certain individuals. This study aimed to formulate and evaluate a mouthwash (gargle) preparation made from a combination of guava leaf extract (Psidium guajava L.) and areca nut seed extract (Areca catechu L.). The extracts were obtained by maceration using 70% ethanol. Three formulations were prepared: F1 containing 3% guava leaf extract and 2.5% areca nut extract, F2 containing 3.5% guava leaf extract and 2.5% areca nut extract, and F3 containing 4% guava leaf extract and 2.5% areca nut extract. Physical evaluations included organoleptic tests, pH, viscosity, clarity, homogeneity, and hedonic (preference) tests. Results showed that all formulations met the required physical quality standards. Based on the preference test, formulation F3 received the highest score (26.2), surpassing F1 and F2. The combination of guava leaf and areca nut extracts shows potential as a natural, effective, safe, and alcohol-free mouthwash formulation.

Abstract

Diarrhea remains a significant health problem in Indonesia, especially among children. The use of medicinal plants as alternative therapy continues to grow due to their milder side effects compared to synthetic drugs. This study aimed to compare the antidiarrheal activity of ethanol extracts of celery leaves (Apium graveolens L.) and areca nuts (Areca catechu L.) on mice (Mus musculus L.) induced with castor oil. The experiment was conducted in a laboratory using a post-test only control group design involving 27 male mice divided into three groups: control, celery leaf extract (20 mg/kgBW), and areca nut extract (350 mg/kgBW). One Way ANOVA showed significant differences among groups in defecation frequency and diarrhea onset (p < 0.05; p = 0.000). The mean defecation frequency was 16 times in the control group, 13 in the celery extract group, and 8 in the areca extract group. Diarrhea onset occurred at 69.25 minutes, 51.75 minutes, and 37.5 minutes, respectively. The areca nut extract at 350 mg/kgBW was the most effective antidiarrheal agent, reducing defecation frequency and delaying diarrhea onset. This effect is attributed to secondary metabolites such as flavonoids, tannins, saponins, and alkaloids, which which act as natural antidiarrheals

Abstract

Dental caries is a common oral health problem caused by Streptococcus mutans, a bacterium that ferments carbohydrates into acid and damages tooth enamel. The high prevalence of dental caries in Indonesia highlights the need for natural antibacterial alternatives. Guava (Psidium guajava) leaf contains flavonoids, tannins, and saponins that have antibacterial potential. This study aims to determine the inhibitory effect of ethanol extract of guava leaves on Streptococcus mutans at concentrations of 1.25%, 2.5%, and 5%. The research used a laboratory experimental method with a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). Extraction was performed using maceration with 96% ethanol, while antibacterial testing used the disc diffusion method. The results showed inhibition zones at all concentrations, with the strongest inhibition at 5%. These findings indicate that guava leaf extract may serve as a natural antibacterial agent for preventing dental caries.

Abstract

Fever is a physiological response of the body to infection, characterized by an increase in temperature due to the activation of endogenous pyrogens. Herbal plants such as kapok (Ceiba pentandra) and hibiscus (Hibiscus rosa sinensis) are traditionally used as antipyretics due to their active compounds such as flavonoids, tannins, and saponins. This study aims to compare the antipyretic efficacy between ethanol extracts of kapok leaves and hibiscus in mice (Mus musculus) induced with fever using 10% peptone intravenously. The study design was a post-test only control group with 24 white male mice divided into three groups: P1 (negative control, only inducing peptone without treatment), P2 (induced by peptone and given kapok leaf extract 300 mg/kgBW), and P3 (induced by peptone and given hibiscus leaf extract 300 mg/kgBW). Body temperature was measured at 30 to 180 minutes after treatment. The results showed a decrease in average body temperature to 38.1°C at P2 and 36.7°C at P3, while P1's body temperature remained high above 39°C. One-Way ANOVA test showed significant differences between groups (p<0.05). Although both extracts showed significant antipyretic effects, hibiscus extract produced a greater decrease in temperature.

Abstract

 Centella asiatica, also known as gotu kola, contains triterpenoids and flavonoids that function as natural antioxidants and moisturizers. This study formulated three stick moisturizer preparations F0 as a control without extract, F1 containing 3% extract, and F2 containing 5% extract to evaluate the effect of active ingredient concentration on product quality. The formulations were assessed over six storage cycles through organoleptic testing, homogenity, pH, irritation, skin hydration, and hedonic evaluation. The results showed that F0, F1, and F2 maintained a stable light-green color, soft texture, and consistent aroma without significant changes during storage. The pH values of all three formulas remained within the safe range for skin (5.6–6.9) and did not cause irritation. Hydration testing indicated that both F1 and F2 increased skin moisture levels, with F2 producing the highest improvement. Hedonic evaluation also revealed that panelists preferred F2 in terms of aroma and texture. Overall, the three formulas demonstrated good physical stability and were well accepted, with F2 showing the best performance.

Abstract

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem in toddlers that remains a national health concern in Indonesia. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Supplementary Feeding Program (PMT) on improving the nutritional status of stunted toddlers in working area of ​​the UPTD Tanjung Selor Health Center. The research method used a descriptive-analytical qualitative approach by analyzing secondary data from the working area of ​​the UPTD Tanjung Selor Health Center for the period September-October 2024 involving 83 stunted toddlers. The data collected included toddler anthropometric measurements (body weight and height/length) at initial examination and stage V monitoring, toddler identity data, and health complaint records. The results showed an average increase in body weight of 0.39 kg (from 9.34 kg to 9.73 kg) and height/length of 0.74 cm (from 82.15 cm to 82.89 cm). A total of 85.5% of toddlers experienced weight gain, 6.0% experienced weight loss, and 8.4% had incomplete data. No health complaints were found during the monitoring period. The dual intervention approach through nutritional education for parents and direct supplementary feeding proved effective in supporting catch-up growth in stunted toddlers. This program demonstrates that comprehensive and structured nutritional interventions can have a significant positive impact on improving the nutritional status of stunted toddlers.

Abstract

Health education is an effective method to improve patient knowledge, especially in the management of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus. One commonly used educational medium is the leaflet, as it is practical, easy to understand, and can be taken home by patients. This study aims to determine the effect of leaflet media on increasing patient knowledge regarding the proper intake of type 2 diabetes medication at Aisyiyah Hospital in Pariaman. The research results showed a significant increase in patients' knowledge after being given the intervention. Before using the leaflet media, the majority of participatnts scores were in the of 50% to 75% correct answers. Meanwhile, after using the leaflet, the majorit of participants moved to the 87.5 % to 100 % correct answer range. Thus, it can be stated that there was an increase in patient’ knowledge about taking type 2 diabetes medication from the pre-test to the post-test . Based on the results of the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test, the significance value was 0.000, which is less than 0.05 (p < 0.05). Thus, the leaflet media proved to be effective in improving patient knowledge using a pre-test and post-test approach regarding the correct way to take type 2 diabetes medication. The leaflet also effectively enhanced patients’ understanding of the importance of taking medication regularly, the correct dosage, and proper timing. This increased knowledge is crucial in supporting patient adherence to treatment and preventing further complications. The use of printed media such as leaflets is recommended as part of routine educational interventions in healthcare facilities. Education through leaflets provides information that patients can reread, reinforcing their understanding of the disease and the therapy they are undergoing. Leaflet media supports the sensory process by providing visual information that enhances patient comprehension. Therefore, the use of leaflets in educating type 2 diabetes patients greatly contributes to improving their knowledge regarding proper medication consumption.

Abstract

Hypertension is a condition characterized by persistently elevated blood pressure with systolic pressure ≥140 mmHg or diastolic pressure ≥90 mmHg (WHO). Patient adherence to antihypertensive therapy is essential for controlling blood pressure and preventing complications, with knowledge and motivation playing key roles in treatment compliance. This study aimed to determine the relationship between knowledge and motivation of hypertensive patients and their medication adherence at Limau Purut Public Health Center, Padang Pariaman Regency, in 2024. This quantitative correlational study used a total sampling technique involving 84 respondents, and data were collected through guided questionnaires. The results showed that 38.1% of respondents had good knowledge and 48.8% had good motivation, while 61.9% had poor knowledge and 51.2% had low motivation. The percentage of patients adhering to treatment was 47.6%. Statistical analysis revealed a significant relationship between knowledge and medication adherence (p = 0.002; p < 0.05) and between motivation and adherence (p = 0.000; p < 0.05). These findings indicate that higher knowledge and motivation levels are associated with better adherence to hypertension therapy. Health workers are encouraged to provide educational materials, such as leaflets, to improve patients’ knowledge, motivation, and overall health outcomes.

Abstract

Falls among the elderly represent a significant global public health challenge, directly impacting functional independence and quality of life. This literature review aims to synthesize various fall prevention intervention strategies based on seven recent international studies (2021–2025). The methodology employed is a narrative literature review of articles addressing physical exercise, self-efficacy, risk screening, and religious activities. The review findings indicate that combined interventions—incorporating structured physical exercises (such as the 9-step core exercise), enhancing self-efficacy through the Otago Exercise Program (OEP), implementing risk screening based on the STEADI protocol, and engaging in routine physical-religious activities (such as Salah)—are significantly effective in reducing fall risks. In conclusion, successful fall prevention requires a holistic approach that integrates physical, psychological, and environmental modification aspects.

Abstract

Premarital health care is a promotive and preventive effort to improve reproductive health and prepare for a healthy pregnancy. One important intervention is the provision of Tetanus Toxoid (TT) immunization to prevent maternal and neonatal tetanus. This study aims to describe premarital midwifery care in providing TT immunization to prospective brides and grooms at the Mapaddegat Community Health Center in the Mentawai Islands Regency. The method used is a case study with a descriptive approach to one prospective bride aged 24 years. Data collection was carried out through anamnesis, physical examination, and supporting examinations. The results of the assessment showed that the client had an incomplete TT immunization status. The midwifery care provided included preconception health education, TT immunization counseling, and immunization administration according to procedures. After the intervention, the client understood the importance of TT immunization and was willing to continue immunization as scheduled. Comprehensive premarital midwifery care has been proven to play a role in increasing the knowledge and readiness of prospective brides and grooms in facing pregnancy. Therefore, the role of health workers, especially midwives, is very important in increasing the coverage of TT immunization as an effort to prevent tetanus in mothers and babies.
