Abstract

Menopause is a natural biological transition that often presents with health issues such as anxiety, sleep disturbances, and mood changes, which may negatively affect women’s quality of life. With the growing number of women entering menopause worldwide, including in Indonesia, effective interventions are needed to help them adapt positively. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of psychoeducation on anxiety levels among premenopausal women in the working area of the Jaboi Community Health Center, Sabang City. A quantitative quasi-experimental pre–post design without a control group was employed. The study involved 60 premenopausal women selected through purposive random sampling from a population of 146. The intervention, conducted from May 16 to June 10, 2025, consisted of structured psychoeducational sessions designed to increase knowledge and coping abilities related to menopause. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results showed that the mean anxiety score decreased significantly from 20.13 (moderate category) before the intervention to 18.17 after the intervention (p < 0.001). These findings indicate that psychoeducation effectively reduces anxiety and enhances preparedness among premenopausal women. It is therefore recommended that routine psychoeducational counseling be integrated into primary healthcare services as a promotive effort to support women in facing menopause in a healthier and more confident manner.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a non-communicable disease that causes global health problems in society. The International Diabetes Federation predicts that the prevalence of diabetes worldwide will increase to 853 million by 2050. The increase in the number of diabetes patients is due to unhealthy lifestyle habits, such as lack of physical activity. Therefore, interventions such as foot exercises and warm water baths are needed to help control blood glucose levels. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a combination of foot exercises and warm water baths in reducing blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes mellitus. The study design used a descriptive case study. The sample size was n=2 people, conducted from May 25, 2025, to May 27, 2025, in the Sukoanyar Village RT 03/RW 03 area, Pakis District, Malang City. The results of this study showed that after three consecutive days of intervention, there was a decrease in blood glucose levels in both research subjects. In Mrs. S, the initial GDS level of 360 mg/dl decreased to 240 mg/dl after the third day of intervention. Meanwhile, in Mr. D, the initial GDS level of 349 mg/dl decreased to 220 mg/dl after the same intervention. Thus, the combination therapy intervention of foot exercises and foot soaking in warm water can lower blood glucose levels in diabetes mellitus patients.

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM type 2) is a chronic metabolic disorder marked by elevated blood glucose due to insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion. Its prevalence continues to rise worldwide, including in Indonesia. Psychological stress is known to worsen glycemic control by activating the sympathetic nervous system and increasing cortisol levels, which can cause fluctuations in blood glucose. This case report aims to describe the effect of combining Benson relaxation techniques with warm foot soaking on blood glucose regulation in a type 2 DM patient. The subject was Mrs. M, a 52-year-old woman diagnosed with type 2 DM. The intervention was conducted for seven consecutive days and consisted of daily Benson relaxation followed by warm foot soaking for 15–20 minutes. Blood glucose levels were measured before and after each session using a glucometer and analyzed descriptively. After seven days, the patient’s blood glucose level decreased from 248 mg/dL to 186 mg/dL. She also reported improved relaxation, better sleep quality, reduced anxiety, and decreased fatigue. These findings suggest that Benson relaxation helps activate the parasympathetic response and reduce stress hormones, while warm foot soaking supports improved circulation and metabolic processes. In conclusion, the combination of Benson relaxation and warm foot soaking is a simple, safe, and effective complementary therapy to support blood glucose regulation in type 2 DM patients. This intervention can be integrated into self-care routines and community nursing practice as part of evidence-based non-pharmacological management.

Abstract

Gross motor development is an important aspect of an infant’s growth. Infants aged 6–12 months are in a golden period where physical stimulation plays a vital role in supporting coordination, balance, and muscle strength. Hydrotherapy provides an experience of free movement in water with light resistance, which can strengthen muscles and improve body control. This study aimed to determine the effect of hydrotherapy on the gross motor development of infants aged 6–12 months at Posyandu Dahlia, Palembang City. This research used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest–posttest control group involving 30 infants (15 intervention and 15 control). The intervention was conducted twice a week for four weeks in water with temperatures of 36–37°C. The Denver II instrument was used for assessment. Data were analyzed using paired t-tests and independent t-tests with a significance level of 0.05The average gross motor development score increased significantly in the intervention group from 45.2 to 60.4 (p = 0.001), while the control group showed no significant change (p = 0.094). Hydrotherapy has a significant effect on improving the gross motor development of infants aged 6–12 months. Health workers are encouraged to use this therapy as an alternative stimulation for early childhood development in community health centers.

Abstract

Surveillance for diarrhea at the district level in Indonesia is still affected by the fragmented nature of the District Health Information System (DHIS) and Early Warning and Response System (EWARS), inconsistent reporting, patchy data interoperability, and the resulting public health delays. Although there are systems in place like the DHIS and EWARS, the persistent use of hybrid systems that combine manual and digital data entry, as well as the different skill levels of users, continues to produce issues of incompleteness, untimely reporting, and inaccurate data. The present study investigated the deficiencies in surveillance reporting of diarrhea cases, the surveillance data to determine the degree of integration and also investigated the health workers perceptions of the barriers to effective reporting. A mixed methods approach was adopted in this study where we investigated quantitatively the DHIS and routine diarrhea reports submitted for the entire year of 2023, and combined that with qualitative, in-depth interviews with the relevant surveillance officers, program managers, and district staff. The quantitative analysis indicated gaps in reporting about 55% in terms of completeness, and consistency of reporting and also significant differences were found between the manual register, DHIS, and EWARS whereby the integration of these systems was found to be low. The qualitative analysis pointed to the combination of disconnected workflows, limited cross-system interoperability, inadequate system training, excessive workloads, and weak organizational feedback, as the main barriers to effective reporting. The combination of these two datasets illustrates the fact that both system deficiencies and organizational factors are primary drivers of the reporting. Closing the gaps will require system level changes in the interoperability of reporting systems, simplified reporting workflows, training, reporting, and reporting feedback loops.

Abstract

Adolescents require higher levels of nutrients for physical growth and development, but the current trend is for adolescents to prefer instant foods such as junk food, spicy foods and foods containing unhealthy additives. This has led to the emergence of various diseases, one of which is gastritis. This condition is even more risky for female students living in Islamic boarding schools with busy activities and irregular meal schedules, thus requiring efforts to prevent gastritis. This study aims to determine the gastritis prevention behaviour of female students at Ma'had Asy-Syakur MAN 2 Kediri. This study uses a descriptive design with one variable, namely gastritis prevention behaviour. The research population consisted of students living at Ma'had Asy-Syakur MAN 2 Kediri, with a total of 59 respondents. Data collection was conducted using a gastritis prevention behaviour questionnaire. The results showed that almost all respondents (81.36%) had gastritis prevention behaviours in the adequate category, with a small portion in the good category (18.64%). The female students' busy and well-scheduled activities, accompanied by the implementation of discipline, regular meal arrangements, and the provision of stomach-friendly menus, contributed to the formation of gastritis prevention behaviour. The most common preventive behaviour was avoiding spicy foods, due to habits, taste preferences, and socio-cultural factors that had been established. This study recommends the need for health education that not only focuses on increasing knowledge but also changing attitudes and habits so that gastritis prevention behaviour can be further optimised.

Abstract

Entrepreneurial leadership has become a crucial competency in higher education institutions seeking to adapt to rapid environmental changes and increasing global competition. This study explores how innovation behavior and dynamic capabilities among lecturers contribute to fostering entrepreneurial leadership within universities. Specifically, it investigates the mediating role of dynamic capabilities in the relationship between innovation behaviour and entrepreneurial leadership. Using a quantitative research design, data were collected through a cross-sectional survey of 85 lecturers at Universitas Duta Bangsa Surakarta. Path analysis and the Sobel test were used to examine both direct and indirect effects. The results reveal that innovation behaviour significantly influences both dynamic capabilities and entrepreneurial leadership. Moreover, dynamic capabilities partially mediate the relationship between innovation behaviour  and entrepreneurial leadership, highlighting their strategic role in enhancing institutional adaptability and innovation. These findings underscore the importance of cultivating innovation behaviour and developing dynamic capabilities among academic staff to promote entrepreneurial leadership. This research provides theoretical, managerial, and policy implications for university governance, emphasizing the need for supportive environments that encourage innovation and continuous development of academic competencies
