Abstract

Purpose: Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease transmitted by rats, which serve as the primary vector, and is caused by the bacterium Leptospira. This disease is a serious concern in tropical regions, including Indonesia, due to its high incidence and mortality rates. This study aims to analyze various risk factors that influence the incidence of leptospirosis in endemic areas, based on the latest scientific literature. Research Method: This study employed a systematic literature review method, searching articles published between 2020 and 2024 on the Google Scholar and PubMed platforms. From the 268 articles identified using the keywords “Leptospirosis, Rats, Risk Factors,” a selection was made based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, resulting in 10 relevant articles. Five of these articles were selected for further analysis. Results and Discussion: The results of the study indicate that several significant risk factors for leptospirosis include: the presence of Leptospira bacteria in the environment, distance of homes from waterways, standing water, garbage conditions, presence of rats, pet ownership, risky activities, use of personal protective equipment, and history of flooding. Implications: This study contributes to the formulation of risk-based prevention policies and supports more targeted public health interventions in areas endemic to leptospirosis.

Abstract

Purpose: Obesity is a long-term condition caused by the accumulation of fat in the body due to an imbalance between energy intake and expenditure. This study aims to investigate the relationship between junk food consumption and a sedentary lifestyle, as well as the incidence of obesity, among elementary school children, particularly at SD 1 Megawon, Kudus Regency. This study also aims to understand the types of fast food consumed and the duration of sedentary behavior in children. Research Method: The research design employed was quantitative, utilizing a correlational analytical approach and a case-control design. The study was conducted at SD 1 Megawon in March 2025. The sample consisted of 60 respondents, namely 30 children with obesity and 30 children without obesity, selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) to assess junk food consumption habits and the Adolescent Sedentary Activity Questionnaire (ASAQ) to measure sedentary activity. Data analysis was performed using bivariate analysis with the chi-square test. Results and Discussion: The results indicate a significant relationship between the frequency of junk food consumption and sedentary activity levels, as well as obesity, in elementary school children. The p-values for both variables indicate statistical significance (p < 0.05). Implications: These findings provide a crucial foundation for schools and parents to implement healthy eating patterns and encourage physical activity, thereby preventing childhood obesity from an early age.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to analyze the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and foot oxygen saturation with the incidence of peripheral neuropathy in patients with diabetes mellitus, considering that this complication is common and can be influenced by various risk factors. Research Method: This quantitative study used a cross-sectional design at the Gribig Kudus Community Health Center. A sample of 82 respondents was selected from 103 patients with diabetes mellitus using the Slovin formula and a purposive sampling technique, based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The instruments included the Semmes-Weinstein Monofilament Test for diagnosing peripheral neuropathy, a scale and stature meter for measuring BMI, and a pulse oximeter for measuring oxygen saturation in the feet. Univariate analysis was conducted to describe the characteristics, and bivariate analysis was performed using the Spearman rank correlation test. Results and Discussion: The results of the study indicate a relationship between BMI and foot oxygen saturation with the incidence of peripheral neuropathy in patients with diabetes mellitus. A high BMI and decreased oxygen saturation in the feet contribute to an increased risk of peripheral neuropathy through mechanisms involving circulatory disorders and microvascular damage. Implications: These findings can serve as a basis for healthcare professionals to implement preventive interventions and early management of peripheral neuropathy complications through weight control, monitoring of extremity oxygen saturation, and education for patients with diabetes mellitus.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to formulate and evaluate the physical quality of liquid body wash containing Centella asiatica (L.). Urb. Extract and patchouli oil to determine the optimal concentration for safe and effective use, with the hypothesis that varying concentrations would affect pH, viscosity, foam stability, and overall product quality. Research Method: An experimental post-test control design was conducted at the Pharmaceutical Technology Laboratory of Cendekia Utama Kudus Health Technology Institute, with irritation tests performed at Universitas Muhammadiyah Kudus. Four formulations (F0–F3) contained pegagan extract (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%) and patchouli oil (0%, 1%, 2%, 3%). Physical evaluations included organoleptic, homogeneity, pH, viscosity, foam height, and irritation tests. Data were analyzed using Shapiro-Wilk, Levene’s test, and One-Way ANOVA. Results and Discussion: All formulations met SNI standards for liquid soap. Formula 1 (5% extract, 1% patchouli oil) exhibited the most balanced properties, with a neutral pH (6.06), suitable viscosity (695 mPas), stable foam height (13.50 mm), and no irritation. Higher extract concentrations reduced viscosity but did not significantly affect foam height. No formula caused redness or itching in volunteers. Implications: Formula 1 is recommended for further development as a natural, skin-safe liquid body wash. Future studies should assess the long-term stability, consumer acceptance, and commercial feasibility of these products.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to determine the relationship between service quality and service costs on patient loyalty at the Ibnu Sina Jepara Primary Clinic. The specific objectives include evaluating the levels of service quality, cost perception, and patient loyalty, as well as analyzing the strength of their relationships. Research Method: A quantitative approach was employed using an analytical survey with a cross-sectional design. The total sample comprised 78 respondents, selected using the Slovin formula from a population of 350 outpatient general service patients. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire measuring service quality, service cost, and patient loyalty. The validity and reliability of the instruments were ensured by referring to previously tested instruments. Univariate and bivariate analyses were conducted, with Spearman's correlation used to assess relationships between variables. Results and Discussion: The results indicate that both service quality and service cost have significant relationships with patient loyalty. High perceptions of service quality and higher cost acceptance were associated with stronger patient loyalty. The study confirms the theoretical assumptions that perceived value—reflected in quality and price—plays a crucial role in determining loyalty in healthcare services. Implications: Findings suggest that clinics must enhance service quality while maintaining transparent and value-based pricing to foster greater patient loyalty. These results can inform clinic management strategies focused on quality improvement and cost efficiency.

Abstract

Purpose: Tuberculosis (TB) not only affects physical health but also impacts patients' psychological well-being, particularly in the form of depressive disorders. Family support is believed to play a crucial role in helping reduce these depressive levels. This study aims to analyze the relationship between the level of family support and the severity of depression in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. Research Method: This study employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive, correlational, cross-sectional design. A total of 30 pulmonary TB patients at Respira Lung Hospital participated in the survey through a total sampling approach. Data were collected using a family support questionnaire and the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II), then analyzed using the Chi-Square test with a significance level of 0.05. Results and Discussion: The results indicate that patients with good family support were less likely to experience moderate or severe depression. Conversely, all patients with low-income family support experienced depression at various levels. The Chi-Square test showed a significant relationship between family support and depression levels (ρ = 0.000). Implications: This study confirms that family support plays a crucial role in maintaining the mental health of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. Family involvement should be integrated into nursing interventions to enhance treatment outcomes and improve the psychological well-being of patients.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the assessment profile of pediatric compounded powder prescriptions at the Malili Community Health Center for the period October–December 2023, focusing on the completeness of administrative, pharmaceutical, and clinical aspects based on the Indonesian Minister of Health Regulation No. 74/2016. The research also aimed to identify potential incompatibilities, ensure accurate dosage, and assess potential drug interactions. Research Method: A quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional design with retrospective data collection was employed. A total of 237 pediatric compounded powder prescriptions, selected using Slovin’s formula from 1,215 prescriptions, met the inclusion criteria. Data were analyzed descriptively to evaluate compliance percentages across administrative, pharmaceutical, and clinical parameters. Results and Discussion: Administrative completeness reached 100% for patient name, age, doctor’s name, initials, date, and unit of origin; however, patient weight was 83.96%, while height and gender were absent, and the doctor’s SIP number was 38.39%. In pharmaceutical aspects, drug name, form, dosage, quantity, and usage instructions met 100% compliance, while strength of preparation was 26.16%. No drug incompatibilities were found. Clinically, treatment duplication and timeliness reached 100%, but dosage errors (underdose, overdose) and drug interactions (74.26%) were identified. Implications: The findings underscore the need to enhance prescription completeness, particularly in terms of drug strength, SIP number, and patient anthropometric data, to align with national pharmaceutical service standards and improve patient safety. Further training for prescribers and pharmacists is recommended.
