Abstract

Musculosceletal trauma is one of the common injuries that occur among adolescents, particularly in the school environment. Knowledge about splint bandaging is crucial to prevent further complications. The use of video-based education media is considered effective in improving adolescents understanding of splint bandaging. This study aimed to assess the effectiviness of video-based education in increasing adolescents knowledge about splint bandaging. This research employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The research sample consisted is students, totaling 34 respondents selected using accidental sampling. The research instrument was a knowledge questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the wilcoxon signed Rank Test Results showed that before intervention, most respondents had a low level of knowledge, with 26 respondents (76.5%) categorized as poor. After the intervension, a significant improvement was observed, with all respondents (100%) classified as having good knowledge . The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test showed a P-Value = 0,000 < α 0,05. It can be concluded that video-based education is effective in improving adolescents knowledge regarding splint bandaging.

Abstract

Baby blues syndrome is a common condition experienced by mothers after childbirth and can negatively impact both the mother and her baby. Several contributing factors include lack of mental preparedness due to young maternal age and limited parenting experience, as well as the number of children a mother has. This study aimed to identify the factors associated with the occurrence of baby blues syndrome at the Teling Community Health Center in Manado. This was an observational analytic study using a cross-sectional design. The sampling technique applied was simple random sampling with a total of 59 respondents. Data collection was conducted using the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS) questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the SPSS program and the Chi-Square test at a significance level of α = 0.05. The results revealed a significant relationship between maternal age and the occurrence of baby blues syndrome (P-value = 0.000 < α 0.05), as well as between parity and baby blues syndrome (P-value = 0.008 < α 0.05). In conclusion, maternal age and parity are significantly correlated with the occurrence of baby blues syndrome at the Teling Health Center. It is recommended that nurses, as healthcare providers, address not only the physical needs of postpartum mothers but also their psychological well-being. Early identification of emotional disturbances and collaboration with other healthcare professionals in providing counseling and promoting bonding between mother and baby during the postpartum period are essential to ensure optimal maternal mental health and healthy infant development

Abstract

This meta-review study presents a comprehensive evaluation of the effectiveness of mental health policies targeting refugees from the Middle East based on a systematic analysis of 87 policies issued across 12 refugee-hosting countries during the period from 2015 to 2023. Employing the PRISMA approach and thematic analysis, this research found that only 34.5% of all reviewed policies met the World Health Organization's minimum standards regarding mental health services for refugees. In comparison, the effective implementation rate of those policies meeting the standards reached only 28.7% (CI 95%, p<0.001). Findings from the logistic regression analysis revealed a significant correlation between the scale of mental health budget allocations and recovery rates from PTSD among refugee populations, where every 10% increase in budget allocation corresponded to a 15.3% reduction in PTSD prevalence (r=0.78, p<0.001). Furthermore, the meta-analysis results from this study demonstrated that community-based policies were 2.4 times more effective (OR=2.4, CI 95%: 1.8–3.1) than those employing institutional approaches. Hence, diverging from the conclusions posited by Turrini et al. (2019) and Sijbrandij (2017), which emphasized clinical interventions, this study has instead affirmed that integrating cultural-spiritual approaches with conventional therapy can enhance treatment success by 47.2%. Additionally, these findings expand the conceptual framework previously proposed by Watters (2001) on holistic approaches by identifying five key elements that form the foundation of effective mental health policies: universal access, cultural sensitivity, community empowerment, service integration, and program sustainability.

Abstract

Hypoalbuminemia is an abnormal condition indicated by low albumin levels, which is <3.5 g/dL and is commonly found in patients with chronic diseases. Conventional therapy through Human Serum Albumin (HSA) is often an option, but has limitations, including fornas restrictions, very high costs, and limited availability. Thus, other more effective and efficient alternatives are needed, namely by utilizing biological sources such as snakehead fish in the form of supplements or capsules. Although there have been various studies and clinical evidence regarding its effectiveness, literature reviews that tabulate the results of various studies are still very limited. Therefore, this systematic review needs to be written to determine the effectiveness of administering snakehead fish capsules on albumin levels in patients with hypoalbuminemia. The compilation of this literature review uses a literature review method that is presented descriptively using several databases that meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria that have been set. The final result obtained 12 literatures that met the inclusion criteria for further study. The results of the review consistently showed that capsules or supplementation of snakehead fish extract were proven to be significantly effective in increasing albumin levels in patients. Factors that influence the effects of administering snakehead fish capsules are the dose and frequency of administration. It was revealed that intervention for 21 days provided superior albumin increase results compared to a duration of 10-14 days. This finding is very relevant because it is in accordance with the biological half-life of albumin in the liver, which is around 21 days. This literature review is expected to be a strong scientific basis for further research and the development of more effective clinical policies in the future.

Abstract

Diarrhea remains a significant health problem among children, especially school-aged students. This study aims to identify factors associated with the occurrence of diarrhea in students. A literature review method was used by analyzing ten relevant scientific articles published within the last five years (2019–2024). Significant factors influencing diarrhea incidence include handwashing habits, environmental sanitation conditions such as availability of latrines and clean water, nutritional status, immunization, and health knowledge. The findings indicate that diarrhea prevention requires a multidimensional approach involving education on healthy behaviors, improvement of sanitation facilities, and family empowerment through nutrition and immunization. These results are expected to serve as a basis for schools, parents, and government in designing effective diarrhea prevention programs for students.

Abstract

Antibiotic resistance has emerged as one of the most critical challenges in modern healthcare. Pathogenic bacteria that were once susceptible to antibiotics have developed survival mechanisms, making infections increasingly difficult to treat. Understanding and combating this issue requires advanced tools, with microscopy playing a pivotal role. Microscopes enable researchers to observe bacterial morphological changes, biofilm formation, and antibiotic-bacteria interactions at molecular levels. Various microscopy techniques – including light microscopy, electron microscopy, and fluorescence microscopy – have significantly contributed to both research and clinical diagnostics. Through a literature review approach, this article examines how microscopy facilitates antibiotic resistance studies and supports the development of more effective treatment strategies.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia. Hyperglycemia can cause organ damage, which can affect inflammatory responses such as increased C-Reactive Protein (CRP). CRP is an inflammatory marker synthesized in the liver for monitoring non-specific local and systemic diseases. This study aims to determine the profile of CRP in DM patients at S.K. Lerik General Hospital in Kupang City. The study design is a quantitative descriptive study with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 50 respondents participated in this study, comprising 9 respondents (18%) with type 1 DM and 41 respondents (92%) with type 2 DM. The distribution of respondent characteristics included 24 males (48%) and 26 females (52%). The age range was 17 adults (34%) aged 19–59 years and 33 elderly individuals (66%). Respondents with normal fasting blood sugar levels (70–110 mg/dL) numbered 5 (10%), and those with high levels (>110 mg/dL) numbered 45 (90%). Based on the study results, 5 respondents (10%) had reactive CRP levels, and 45 respondents (90%) had non-reactive levels. Reactive CRP results were found in 3 female (6%) and 2 male (4%), 1 adult (2%) and 4 elderly respondents (8%), and all were classified as having type 1 diabetes.

Abstract

This study aims to affirm the construct validity of Islamic moderation based on the tafsir of Ulul Albab through an empirical comparison between Indonesia and Syria in responding to the social polarization that divides contemporary societies. Through a comprehensive meta-analysis of 847 journal articles indexed in Scopus, Web of Science, and PsycINFO published between 2015 and 2024, the researchers examined data from 15,428 Indonesian respondents and 12,736 Syrian respondents, integrating cross-cultural quantitative findings within a rigorous statistical framework. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated model fit (χ²/df = 2.184; CFI = 0.947; TLI = 0.932; RMSEA = 0.041), while convergent validity indicated an AVE of 0.563 in Indonesia and 0.589 in Syria, with composite reliability values of 0.891 and 0.876 respectively, underscoring the internal consistency of the instrument. Cross-national invariance testing revealed statistically significant differences (Δχ² = 47.23; p < 0.001), with the mean score of Islamic moderation in Indonesia (M = 4.12; SD = 0.67) surpassing that of Syria (M = 3.84; SD = 0.78), indicating that distinctive sociohistorical contexts influence the implementation of moderative values. Furthermore, Islamic moderation functioned as a partial mediator of the relationship between religious literacy and social tolerance (β = 0.342; p < 0.001 for Indonesia; β = 0.287; p < 0.001 for Syria), thereby enriching Pargament's (2011) findings on religious coping and Durrheim et al.'s (2016) work on intergroup prejudice. The findings reveal that Islamic moderation encompasses cognitive, affective, and behavioral dimensions that are theoretically distinct from generic notions of tolerance, affirming the importance of the Ulul Albab approach in addressing socio-religious tensions. Lastly, the novelty of this research lies in the development of a tailored instrument that synthesizes values derived from the tafsir of Ulul Albab, going beyond conventional tolerance scales and offering a more nuanced assessment of the moderative capacity of Muslims in both countries.

Abstract

This study comprehensively examines the impact of social media on the formation and intensification of collective trauma in the Middle East through a digital meta-analytical approach synthesizing 47 empirical studies, encompassing a total of 31,842 participants, published between 2015 and 2024. The results reveal a strong and statistically significant correlation between the intensity of social media use and levels of collective trauma, with a correlation coefficient of r = 0.67 and a p-value of < 0.001, indicating a consistent and substantive relationship. Furthermore, regression analysis indicates that exposure to violent content through social media accounts for 43.2 percent of the variance in communal post-traumatic stress symptoms, affirming the role of digital media as a significant catalyst in amplifying collective psychological responses to conflict in the Middle East. Daily social media use exceeding five hours was found to significantly increase the risk of experiencing collective trauma by 2.8 times, with an odds ratio of 2.84 and a 95 percent confidence interval ranging from 2.31 to 3.49. Platforms such as Facebook and Twitter demonstrated a more substantial influence in widely disseminating traumatic experiences, with a beta coefficient of 0.58, compared to Instagram, which had a relatively lower influence with a beta value of 0.34, indicating that the structural and technological logic of each platform mediates the psychological transmission effect. Thematic analysis across studies revealed three primary mechanisms through which trauma is transmitted via social media: first, the amplification of traumatic narratives, accounting for 41.3 percent of identified patterns; second, the normalization of violence at 32.7 percent; and third, the reinforcement of collective identity based on shared traumatic experiences at 26.0 percent, thereby creating a digital ecosystem prone to the social accumulation of negative emotional states. These findings substantially expand the scope of prior research, such as that conducted by Atallah in 2017 and Nasciutti and Rahbari-Jawoko in 2021, which focused more narrowly on individual trauma, by highlighting a broader collective dimension and emphasizing the specific roles of various digital platforms in reinforcing these psychosocial dynamics. This study also identifies a novel pattern of both theoretical and practical significance, namely that algorithmic content recommendation contributes significantly to the formation of closed psychological echo chambers of trauma, intensifying exposure to traumatic content and deepening the affective impact of Middle Eastern conflict within digital spaces, with a significance level of p < 0.001. Accordingly, these findings underscore the urgent need for strategically designed and contextually grounded digital interventions to mitigate the burden of collective trauma in communities affected by protracted armed conflict in the Middle East.
