Abstract

Vaccination programs are an effective preventive measure aimed at reducing the number of cases and deaths caused by vaccine-preventable diseases, especially among pregnant women and young children. This study aims to assess the implementation of the immunization program at Nambo Health Center and to identify the factors that influence community participation. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach with a field study methodology. The research team consists of three individuals, namely one health worker, one posyandu volunteer, and one mother of a young child, selected through purposive sampling. Data collection was carried out through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation. The validity of the data was obtained through triangulation of sources and methods, while the data analysis was conducted interactively through stages of data reduction, data presentation, and the drawing and verification of conclusions. The research results indicate that the implementation of the immunization program has followed the proper procedures, but the level of community participation is still influenced by low parental knowledge, concerns about vaccine side effects, and insufficient counseling and family support. This study indicates that improving the quality of health education, strengthening the role of posyandu volunteers, and optimizing communication between health workers and the community are necessary to increase immunization coverage. This finding is expected to serve as input for health centers and policymakers in developing more effective health promotion strategies to enhance the success of immunization programs.

Abstract

Hair and scalp health is an important aspect of dermatology that is influenced by various environmental and physiological factors, as well as daily habits. One factor that is often considered is the moisture level of the scalp, which can create a distinct microecological environment conducive to the growth of microorganisms. This study employed a quantitative approach with a comparative observational analytical design to analyze the relationship between hair moisture levels and the risk of fungal infection by the genus Malassezia sp. in two groups: women who wear the hijab and women who do not. The study was conducted in May 2026 in Surakarta, Solo, after obtaining informed consent from the participants. Based on macroscopic observations on PDA medium, differences in fungal colony growth were observed in each group, both in the hijab and non-hijab samples. Some samples showed more visible colony growth, while others showed only slight growth or no dominant colonies. These differences indicate that the number of microorganisms in each sample was not the same. Microscopic observations using LPCB staining revealed fungal structures consisting of round cells in several preparations. This study suggests that wearing a hijab can increase scalp temperature and humidity, potentially supporting the growth of Malassezia sp. However, the results of both macroscopic and microscopic cultures indicate that fungal growth varies among individuals and is not necessarily higher among hijab wearers.

Abstract

The delivery program in health facilities is an effort to improve maternal and infant safety through integrated services. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Delivery Program in the working area of Mata Community Health Center, Kendari City. The study used a qualitative approach with a case study design. Informants were selected purposively, consisting of midwives, integrated health post (Posyandu) cadres, and postpartum mothers. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and analyzed thematically based on input, process, and output components. The results showed that the program's success was supported by the availability of health workers, facilities and infrastructure, BPJS support, the role of cadres, and family support. The implementation process included antenatal care, ongoing education, pregnancy monitoring, interpersonal communication, and a referral system. The program had a positive impact in the form of increased maternal safety, reduced risk of complications, and increased public trust in delivery in health facilities. However, obstacles such as access to transportation, distance, and public knowledge remain challenges. This program effectively increases safe deliveries and contributes to reducing the risk of maternal and infant mortality.

Abstract

Delays in returning inpatient medical record documents may disrupt the continuity of services in the medical records unit, particularly in data processing, information retrieval, and healthcare service delivery. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of staff workload, the completeness of medical record documents, and the implementation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) on the timeliness of returning inpatient medical record documents. This research employed a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. The informants consisted of five ward nurses, while observations were conducted on 100 inpatient medical record documents. The findings revealed that 62% of the medical record documents were returned late. Most informants (60%) stated that excessive workload was the primary obstacle, while 57% of the medical record documents were incomplete and 60% of the informants had not fully implemented the SOPs. These results indicate that high workload, incomplete medical record documentation, and inadequate implementation of SOPs are the main factors affecting the timely return of inpatient medical record documents. Therefore, improving compliance with SOPs, optimizing workload management, and strengthening supervision of document completeness are essential to enhance the quality and efficiency of medical record services.

Abstract

Snacks are one of the primary food sources frequently consumed by school-aged adolescents. Choosing snacks that do not meet food safety and balanced nutrition principles may increase the risk of various health problems. Knowledge and attitudes are important factors influencing adolescents' healthy snack choices. This study aimed to describe the knowledge and attitudes of adolescents regarding healthy snacks at SMP Negeri 28 Padang. This study employed a quantitative descriptive design with a cross-sectional approach. The study involved 56 students selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using a questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability. The data were analyzed using univariate analysis and presented as frequency distributions and percentages. The results showed that 13 respondents (23.3%) had poor knowledge regarding healthy snacks, while 17 respondents (30.4%) had unfavorable attitudes toward healthy snacks. Therefore, schools are expected to optimize nutrition education programs, strengthen the School Health Unit (UKS) activities, and continuously monitor healthy school canteens to improve students' knowledge, foster positive attitudes, and encourage healthy snack selection behaviors among adolescents.

Abstract

Anxiety in children undergoing surgery is a common issue stemming from fear of the procedure, the hospital environment, and the invasive nature of the treatment. Unaddressed anxiety can affect a child's psychological well-being and hinder the care process. Play therapy—specifically coloring—is a nursing intervention that can help alleviate this anxiety. Coloring serves as an activity that provides distraction, promotes a sense of comfort, and helps children express their emotions during their care. The objective of this implementation was to assess changes in anxiety levels among preoperative children following a cloth-bag coloring play therapy intervention. This final nursing project employed a case study method incorporating Evidence-Based Practice, specifically cloth-bag coloring play therapy, with three preschool-aged respondents scheduled for surgery. Anxiety levels were measured before and after the intervention using the Face Image Scale (FIS). The results demonstrated a reduction in anxiety levels across all respondents: the first respondent's score dropped from 4 to 2, the second from 3 to 2, and the third from 4 to 2. Cloth-bag coloring play therapy can be utilized to reduce anxiety levels in preschool children undergoing surgery

Abstract

Apolipoprotein A-5 (APOA5) is a hepatic regulator of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein metabolism, and the promoter polymorphism rs662799 is its most extensively investigated variant. This narrative review synthesises current evidence on the molecular consequences of rs662799 and its relationship with lipid profile, central obesity, and metabolic syndrome, with particular attention to its relevance for Asian and Indonesian populations. Literature published between 2011 and 2026 was retrieved from PubMed, ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, Google Scholar, and Garuda, and thirty-nine sources met the selection criteria. The minor allele reduces promoter transcriptional activity, lowers APOA5 concentration, and impairs lipoprotein lipase-mediated triglyceride clearance, resulting in higher plasma triglyceride and lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Meta-analyses report a 1.3- to 1.5-fold increase in metabolic syndrome risk among minor allele carriers, whereas associations with central obesity are inconsistent and frequently conditional on energy intake, sex, or degree of adiposity. Minor allele frequency is substantially higher in East Asian than in European populations, indicating population-specific clinical implications. Evidence relating this variant to lipid-lowering pharmacotherapy response remains scarce and warrants investigation, particularly in Indonesia where population data are still limited.

Abstract

Fine motor development is an essential aspect of early childhood development, as it is closely related to the coordination of small muscles, hand–eye coordination, and children's readiness for future learning. One of the factors influencing fine motor development is maternal parenting practices. This study aimed to determine the relationship between maternal parenting and fine motor development among children aged 3–4 years at UPTD Puskesmas Rawat Inap Tepeleo, North Patani District, Central Halmahera Regency. This quantitative analytical study employed a cross-sectional design. A total of 30 respondents were selected using the total sampling technique. Parenting data were collected using a structured questionnaire, while children's fine motor development was assessed using an observational checklist. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Chi-square test with a significance level of α = 0.05. The results showed that 70.0% of mothers applied good parenting, 13.3% applied moderate parenting, and 16.7% applied poor parenting. Most children demonstrated Age-Appropriate Development (46.7%), followed by Very Well Developed (30.0%) and Beginning to Develop (23.3%). Bivariate analysis revealed a significant relationship between maternal parenting and fine motor development among children aged 3–4 years (p = 0.001). These findings suggest that improving parental education on appropriate parenting practices and early developmental stimulation may contribute to optimal fine motor development in young children.
