Abstract

Background: The most common site of metastases in people with breast cancer is bone metastasis. Patients with advanced phases of cancer are associated with an increased prevalence of several types of metastases, one of which is bone metastasis. Object: Assessment of the risk factors for bone metastases in patients with breast cancer. Patients and Methods: This is a retrospective study of 316 patients with breast cancer who either had bone metastases at the time of diagnosis or developed it later on. The study was carried out between January 2013 and April 2018. Three hundred and sixteen patients were assigned into two groups. In the case group, 100 patients with breast cancer had been diagnosed with bone metastasis by CT, MRI, bone scan, and PET scan; in the control group, there were 216 cases in are control group with breast cancer metastasis to sites other than bone. The questionnaire was created to record all factors (with the exception of demographic information), such as age, histopathological reading for invasive lobular carcinoma, invasive ductal carcinoma, or another type of cancer, ER status, PR status, Her2neu status, lymph node status and stage, and menopausal status. Results: The majority were 45 years of age or younger, and 96.5% of them had invasive ductal carcinoma in terms of hormonal status. Positive ER and PR status is found in 67.7% and 67.1% of the cases, respectively; 40.5% of the cases had amplified Her2neu receptors, 78.5% of the cases had positive lymph nodes, and 41.9% of the cases had (N1) stage. The highest proportion of bone metastasis was associated with negative ER and PR receptors (46.2% and 49%, respectively), while no significant statistical association (P= 0.65). Conclusion: negative ER, PR status, and Her2neu receptors not amplified, lymph node involvement, age 45 and less, infiltrating lobular carcinoma (ILC) histological type, and menopausal state are significant risk factors for bone metastasis in breast cancer.

Abstract

Hypertension, often called the "silent killer," is a leading non-communicable disease contributing to high mortality and morbidity, particularly in the elderly. As individuals age, peripheral blood vessel elasticity decreases, increasing vascular resistance and leading to systolic hypertension, commonly seen in older adults. Hypertension requires long-term treatment, which can result in non-compliance among elderly patients. Family support plays a crucial role in assisting and encouraging adherence to treatment regimens. This quantitative correlation study, with a cross-sectional approach, aimed to examine the relationship between emotional family support and treatment compliance in elderly hypertensive patients. The study was conducted at the Sei Agul Health Center, with a sample size of 65 elderly individuals selected using the Slovin formula and purposive sampling technique in October 2023. The Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8) was used to measure treatment compliance, while the emotional support instrument was developed by the researcher. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test, showing a significant relationship between emotional family support and treatment compliance (p-value < 0.05). The findings conclude that emotional support from family positively influences the compliance of elderly patients undergoing hypertension treatment at the Sei Agul Health Center. Health workers are encouraged to involve families in supporting hypertensive patients to enhance treatment outcomes.

Abstract

Using a mixed-method approach, This study examines emotional support for Quranic memorization students (santri tahfidz) in Islamic boarding schools (pesantren). Quantitative analysis of 515 santri tahfidz revealed high levels of emotional support (M = 3.74, SD = 0.68) with two primary dimensions: reliable relationships (74.96%) and trusted guidance (75.17%). Multiple regression analysis uncovered a significant relationship between emotional support and Quranic memorization achievement (β = 0.42, p < .001, R² = 0.18). A meta-analysis of 28 studies (N = 3,627) confirmed a positive correlation between emotional support and students' psychological well-being (r = 0.39, 95% CI [0.34, 0.44]). MANOVA results indicated significant differences in santri tahfidz's perceptions of emotional support based on gender (Wilks' λ = .97, F(2, 512) = 7.85, p < .001, partial η² = .03) and age (Wilks' λ = .95, F(4, 1022) = 6.73, p < .001, partial η² = .03). These findings extend previous research by Hasfi (2018) and Vista (2018) by identifying the specific roles of teacher support (β = 0.31, p < .01) and peer support (β = 0.28, p < .01) in enhancing student resilience. Furthermore, this study contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of emotional support dynamics in pesantren tahfidz education, integrating Bronfenbrenner's (1979) ecological perspective and Deci and Ryan's (2000) self-determination theory. Finally in a practical context, the researcher evaluates this study has implications for the development of more structured and efficient emotional support intervention programs in tahfidz pesantren.

Abstract

Postoperative nausea and vomiting is one of the side effects that often occurs in spinal anesthesia. Nausea and vomiting affect patient morbidity such as stress, discomfort, dehydration, prolonging treatment time and increasing treatment costs. This study aims to determine the effect of acupressure therapy on the incidence of nausea and vomiting after spinal anesthesia in the recovery room at the Imelda Workers Indonesia General Hospital, Medan. This type of research is quantitative research with quasi-experimental research methods. Data reports in the province of North Sumatra showed that there were 25,602 patients who underwent surgery. Meanwhile, at the Indonesian Umim Workers Hospital in Medan, data on surgical patients for January-March 2024 totaled 666 patients, and 250 patients had spinal anesthesia. This research was carried out in February - June 2024 at the Imelda Indonesian Workers General Hospital, Medan. The research sample was taken as many as 20 respondents. incidence of nausea and vomiting after spinal anesthesia at the Imelda Workers Indonesia General Hospital, Medan. Based on the characteristics of respondents based on age, they were in the age range of 36-40 years, namely 55%, based on gender, the majority of respondents were women, namely 60%, respondents based on smoking history were the majority 65%, the distribution of respondents with a history of nausea and vomiting was the majority 55% and the majority of respondents with nausea and vomiting were 60%. The recommendation for this research is that acupressure therapy can be applied in nursing practice so that patients are able to perform it independently. For the Imelda Workers Indonesia General Hospital, Medan, it is necessary to score the risk of nausea and vomiting in patients before surgery to minimize the incidence of post-operative nausea and vomiting.

Abstract

Digital health interventions hold promise for patient-centered care, as they enable remote monitoring of patients and can be used to easily remind patients to take their medications. This study used a literature review technique with research collecting 30 research publications related to the use, opportunities and challenges of digital health in the treatment of tuberculosis. The literature review technique aims to evaluate and analyze previous research to provide context, show gaps in research, and support arguments for the research to be conducted. Several conclusions from this literature review research include: (1) Digital health has a significant role as an intervention in the management of tuberculosis patients. (2) Digital health offers great opportunities to improve the management and treatment of tuberculosis patients. The opportunity for digital health as an intervention for tuberculosis patients is very promising and can have a significant impact on various aspects of managing this disease. (3) Although digital health offers many opportunities for managing tuberculosis, there are also various challenges that must be faced in its implementation, including: challenges of technology access, patient compliance and engagement, data security and privacy, integration with traditional health systems, costs and funding, quality content and information as well as cultural and language barriers.
