Abstract

Background: Hypertension is a common chronic condition that requires consistent medication adherence to prevent complications. Despite various control programs, adherence remains influenced by sociodemographic factors. Objective: This study aimed to examine the association between sociodemographic characteristics, national health insurance enrollment (JKN), smoking habits, and medication adherence among hypertensive patients. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Mengwi Public Health Center, Badung Regency, Bali Province. The study population included 611 adult hypertensive patients, and 239 respondents were selected using random sampling. The dependent variable was medication adherence, while the independent variables were age, gender, marital status, education, employment status, household position, JKN membership, and smoking habits. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test to assess associations. Results: The results showed that among 239 participants, 82.8% adhered to their medication. Age was significantly associated with adherence (p = 0.008), and regression analysis (p = 0.901; OR = 1.001; 95% CI: 0.980–1.023) indicated a small effect but a pattern where older and middle-aged patients were more compliant than younger adults. Employment status was also significantly related to adherence (p = 0.039), with regression results (p = 0.039; OR = 3.125; 95% CI: 1.061–9.206), showing a positive association. Other variables, including gender, marital status, education, household position, JKN membership, and smoking habits, were not significantly associated. Conclusion: Age and employment status significantly influenced medication adherence among hypertensive patients. These findings emphasize the importance of age- and occupation-based interventions, such as adherence education for younger patients and time management strategies for employed individuals.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is a significant health issue in Indonesia, affecting children's physical and cognitive development, as well as their future quality of life. One key strategy for preventing stunting is ensuring optimal monitoring of toddlers' growth and development. Objective: This study examined the impact of the Android application "SiANEH" on monitoring growth, development, and stimulation, aiming to improve mothers' independent practices in stunting prevention efforts in Kutalimbaru Village, Deliserdang Regency. Methods: A quasi-experimental design with a quantitative analytical approach was used, specifically a one-group pretest-posttest design. The research was conducted in Kutalimbaru Village, with a sample of 30 mothers of toddlers selected via purposive sampling. The study measured mothers' independent practices in monitoring growth and stimulating toddlers, utilizing the "SiANEH" app, which provides information on child development and reminders for stimulation. Data were collected through observation and completion of observation sheets. The research instruments were validated for content and reliability before application, and ethical approval was obtained from the Health Research Ethics Committee of Poltekkes Kemenkes Medan. Results: The results revealed a positive and significant effect of the "SiANEH" app on child growth monitoring (r=0.532, p= 0.002), child stimulation (r=0.790, p= 0.000), and maternal independence in monitoring and stimulation (r=0.534, p= 0.002). Pretest scores for growth monitoring (1.57) and stimulation (1.60) increased significantly in the posttest (3.40 and 3.70, respectively), as did maternal independence (from 1.80 to 3.60). Conclusion: These findings indicate that the "SiANEH" application enhances mothers' involvement in independently monitoring and stimulating child development, contributing to stunting prevention.

Abstract

Background: Furniture workers who lift and carry heavy loads face various ergonomic risks that impact their work performance and health. Field observations indicate that manual material handling is carried out conventionally with heavy and large loads without the use of assistive devices. This results in workers working in non-ergonomic positions. In addition, the high frequency of repetitive movements and the lack of education on correct lifting techniques increase the risk of fatigue and musculoskeletal disorders. Objective: This study aims to analyze the differences in work fatigue and musculoskeletal disorders in the ergonomic work positions of furniture workers. Methods: The study subjects were 60 male workers. Work fatigue was measured using a reaction time meter with millimeter (mm) units and a questionnaire. This study used an experimental design with a randomized controlled trial method. Data collection on musculoskeletal disorders used the Nordic Body Map (NBM) questionnaire. Results: Comparison of pre-employment and post-employment scores in the treatment group showed that the average value decreased from 719.63 mm before work to 235.07 mm after work. The average musculoskeletal disorders in the control group increased before and after work from 30.30 to 33.30 (p=0.001). These results indicate that ergonomic work position interventions can reduce fatigue and musculoskeletal disorders in lifters. Conclusion: Therefore, companies need to implement comprehensive work ergonomic standards including manual handling technique training for all workers, provision of lifting aids such as trolleys or hand trucks, and worker health monitoring as a preventive measure against work fatigue and musculoskeletal disorders.

Abstract

Background: Household activities generate greywater containing pollutants such as BOD, COD, TSS, and detergents, contributing to environmental pollution. Eco enzyme offers a biological alternative to degrade organic waste. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the eco enzyme combined with sludge sediment in reducing greywater pollutants. Methods: A true experimental study with a pretest–posttest control group design was conducted using four greywater reactors. Eco enzyme doses of 10 ml, 30 ml, and 50 ml per 1000 ml of wastewater were tested, along with a control. The eco enzyme was mixed with 1.5 liters of sludge sediment. The detention time was three days. Sampling was performed once per treatment using purposive sampling. Parameters analyzed included BOD, COD, TSS, and detergents based on SNI standards. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA. Results: The treatment showed no significant effect on BOD reduction (p=0.48), but significantly reduced COD (p=0.01) and TSS (p=0.0001). Detergent reduction was moderate, with the 50 ml dose being the most effective, although not statistically significant (p=0.07). Conclusion: Eco enzyme combined with sludge sediment has potential as a simple biological treatment to reduce COD, TSS, and detergents in greywater. However, additional processes such as aeration are needed to effectively reduce BOD. This research can be the basis for the development of advanced research that can apply eco enzymes to waste, with a longer time and more varied dosage use.

Abstract

Background: Iron (Fe) is a geochemically active element that needs to be monitored because excessive levels in water can reduce water quality and pose health risks. WHO sets a safe limit of Fe in drinking water at 0.3 mg/L. This condition demands an accurate, simple, and applicable Fe detection method without complex instruments. Objective: This study developed a digital imaging-based Fe(III) detection method using a natural reagent, malacca fruit extract, which is rich in gallic acid and forms a blue Fe-gallic acid complex. Methods: The study design included laboratory experiments involving gallic acid extraction, optimization of the Fe(III): extract ratio, optimization of measurement time, and evaluation of linearity, precision, accuracy, LoD, LoQ, and t-test against the UV-Vis spectrophotometry method. Results: The results showed an optimum Fe(III): extract ratio of 1:2, with reaction stability up to the 5th minute. A linear relationship was obtained in the range of 0.1–2 ppm (R² = 0.9969), with an LoD of 0.1377 ppm and a LoQ of 0.4589 ppm. The %RSD values ​​of 2.34–3.82% indicate good precision, while the accuracy ranges from 92.76–111.2%. A t-test confirmed that the digital imaging results were not significantly different from those of UV-Vis spectrophotometry. Conclusion: Overall, this method offers a portable, economical, and environmentally friendly analytical approach for Fe(III) detection and provides a basis for the development of digital application-based diagnostic systems using natural reagents.

Abstract

Background: Herbal milk formulated with avocado oil and turmeric is a functional beverage with potential health benefits, but its microbiological safety requires evaluation to determine appropriate storage conditions. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the effects of storage temperature and duration on total bacterial count (Total Plate Count/TPC) as well as the presence of Escherichia coli, coliforms, Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterobacteriaceae. Methods: A laboratory experimental design using a factorial Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was applied, involving two factors: storage temperature (4°C, 25°C, and 40°C) and storage duration (0, 3, and 7 days). Results: The results showed that storage at 4°C effectively affected microbial growth, indicated by a decrease in TPC from 5.51 log CFU/mL to 2.57 log CFU/mL on day 7. In contrast, storage at room temperature (25°C) and elevated temperature (40°C) led to increased microbial activity during the first three days. Conclusion: Overall, storage at 4°C is recommended as the safest condition, with a maximum storage duration of seven days to maintain the microbiological safety and stability of the avocado–turmeric herbal milk.

Abstract

Background: Caregivers of breast cancer patients are at risk of experiencing a high caregiver burden due to prolonged physical, emotional, and social demands. Coping responses play an important role in determining how caregivers manage these challenges. Objective: The study aimed to analyze the relationship and caregiver burden in caring for breast cancer patients. Methods: This study employed a quantitative cross-sectional design involving 200 caregivers of breast cancer patients. Inclusion criteria were age ≥18 years, good health status, active involvement in caregiving, and the ability to read Indonesian. Data were collected from August to December 2024 using a demographic questionnaire, the Coping Orientation to Problems Experienced (COPE), and the Indonesian version of the Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI). Data were analyzed using the chi-square test. Most caregivers with maladaptive coping experienced a high caregiver burden (79.8%), while only 20.2% of caregivers with adaptive coping reported a high burden. Results:  Statistical analysis showed a significant association between coping responses and caregiver burden (p = 0.001). Conclusion: Caregivers who used maladaptive coping strategies had a significantly higher likelihood of experiencing a high caregiver burden compared with those who used adaptive coping strategies. Coping responses are significantly associated with caregiver burden among caregivers of breast cancer patients. Strengthening adaptive coping strategies through caregiver-focused interventions is essential to reducing caregiver burden and supporting optimal patient care.

Abstract

Background: The use of partographs in obstetric care is an important topic, especially in low- and middle-income countries, including Indonesia, which face high maternal and neonatal mortality rates. Objective: This study aimed to explore and analyze factors influencing midwives' use of the partograph for early detection of labor complications. Methods: This study employed a non-experimental quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design to analyze factors influencing partograph use by midwives. The study population was 135 midwives in Hulu Sungai Utara Regency, with a sample of 101 midwives determined using a simple random sampling technique. The dependent variable was partograph utilization, while the independent variables included midwives' knowledge, attitudes, motivation, perception of supervision, training, length of service, age, and education level. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire and observation sheet. Data analysis used the chi-square test and multiple logistic regression to identify relationships between variables influencing partograph utilization. Results: The education was significantly associated with partograph utilization (p=0.001; OR 6.0), with midwives with higher education being more likely to use it. Conversely, length of service ≥5 years was associated with decreased partograph utilization (p=0.000; OR 0.05). In addition, motivation (p=0.002; OR 1.6) and supervision (p=0.032; OR 1.7) also positively influenced partograph use. The logistic regression model showed that higher education increased the probability of partograph use (Exp(B)=11.172), while longer work experience decreased the probability (Exp(B)=0.028). Conclusion: Higher education significantly increased partograph use, while work experience above 5 years decreased its use. Motivation and supervision also positively contributed to optimal partograph use.

Abstract

Background: Anemia remains a major global health concern, particularly in low- and middle-income countries where distinguishing Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) from Anemia of Inflamation (AI) remains diagnostically challenging. Hemoglobin alone cannot differentiate these conditions, necessitating more specific biomarkers. Serum ferritin, the primary iron-storage protein, reflects body iron reserves but is also elevated during inflammation through interleukin-6-mediated hepcidin induction. Objective: This review examines the dual role of ferritin as an iron biomarker and an inflammatory marker. Methods: A literature search was conducted in PubMed, ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, and the Cochrane Library with a ten-year publication limit. Of the 89 articles identified, only eight studies met the inclusion criteria and directly evaluated the relationship between ferritin, iron status, and inflammatory processes. Results: Ferritin remains a key indicator of iron reserves, but its interpretation needs to take into account the inflammatory status. Conclusion: The combination of ferritin with inflammatory biomarkers such as C-Reactive Protein (CRP)and Alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) improves the diagnostic accuracy for anemia related to both iron deficiency and inflammation.

Abstract

Background: Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease that has an impact not only on the physical but also psychosocial aspects of its survivors. Even though they have been declared medically cured, people affected by leprosy still face stigma and discrimination that hinder social reintegration. This is reflected in the high number of leprosy cases in Indramayu Regency, which reached 3,777 cases in. Objective:  This study aimed to analyze the psychological effects experienced by People Affected by Leprosy (PAL) and its relationship with the social reintegration process in Indramayu Regency. Methods: The research used a quantitative design with a descriptive-analytical survey approach. The sample was determined through purposive sampling technique with a total of 208 PAL respondents who had been declared medically cured and had post-treatment social interaction experience. Data collection was carried out using online and offline questionnaires with the assistance of field cadres and health workers. Data analysis includes descriptive statistics, Chi-Square tests, and Spearman correlation. Results: The results showed that the majority of respondents experienced significant psychological impacts, including shame (90.9%), low self-esteem (95.4%), loss of zest for life (77.3%), fear of social rejection (68.2%), and experiences of discrimination (72.8%). Bivariate analysis showed that shyness, low self-esteem, fear of rejection, and experiences of discrimination were significantly associated with social reintegration (p<0.05), while family support and community acceptance were positively associated with the reintegration process. Conclusion: This research confirms that PAL social reintegration requires community-based multidimensional interventions, strengthening family support, and sustainable public education to reduce stigma and discrimination.
