Abstract

Background: Hypertension is a common health problem among the elderly and can lead to serious complications if left uncontrolled. One non-pharmacological effort is healthy heart exercise, which increases blood vessel elasticity, improves circulation, and lowers blood pressure. Purpose: To determine the effect of healthy heart exercise on blood pressure in elderly people with hypertension. Method: This is a pre-experimental study with a time series design. The sample consisted of 23 elderly people selected using a purposive sampling technique. The intervention, which included healthy heart exercise, was conducted over three consecutive days, each lasting 30 minutes. The research instruments used were a mercury sphygmomanometer, a stethoscope, the Healthy Heart Exercise Standard Operating Procedure (SOP), and an observation sheet. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure data were measured daily before and after the intervention. Statistical analysis used a paired-sample t-test. Results: Univariate analysis showed that the mean blood pressure before exercise on the first day was 149.65/89.48 mmHg, on the second day 148.96/88.00 mmHg, and on the third day 146.70/91.04 mmHg. Bivariate analysis showed a significant decrease after exercise, with blood pressure dropping to 145.48/87.30 mmHg on the first day, 145.65/84.52 mmHg on the second day, and 144.09/87.30 mmHg on the third day (p=0.000 <0.05). Conclusion: Elderly can consistently and regularly perform this heart-healthy exercise three times a week to obtain optimal benefits, as a therapeutic modality for controlling blood pressure.

Abstract

Background: Evidence shows family support, motivation, and physical activity are crucial for quality of life in elderly individuals with hypertension, with physical activity showing strong correlation. Factors like self-management, education, and income also play key roles. This study is situated in a Bandung City district where in 2021, primary hypertension was the leading cause of death and most prevalent disease. In 2023, of 437 residents with hypertension, only 35 elderly individuals regularly monitored their condition at the district's Community Health Center. Purpose: To investigate how physical activity and self-management affect quality of elderly life with Hypertension at a Community Health Care facility in an urban district in Bandung. Method: The study population included 72 elderly individuals, with a sample of 62 respondents determined by Slovin formula. Respondents were assessed using the SF36 questionnaire for quality of life, Physical Activities Scale for the Elderly (PASE), and Hypertension Self-Management Behavior Questionnaire (HSMBQ). Data analysis was conducted using multiple logistic regression. Results: Findings showed 69.4% of respondents had satisfactory physical activity levels, 56.5% showed effective self-management, and 83.9% reported high quality of life. Physical activity had the strongest influence (OR= 4.980) (95% CI OR: 7.520 – 211.29), while self-management showed moderate impact (OR=1.811). Conclusions: Elderly individuals with unsatisfactory physical activity face a 4,980-fold increased risk of declining quality of life compared to those with good activity levels. Those with unsatisfactory self-management face 1,811-fold increased risk of decreased quality of life versus those with effective practices.

Abstract

Background: Preterm infants are a group of infants with a high risk of various health problems, especially respiratory disorders that can affect their oxygenation status and cardiorespiratory function. Body positioning of preterm infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is one of the important interventions that can affect lung function and hemodynamic stability Purpose:  To determine the effect of body position on cardiorespiratory status in preterm infants. Method: This systematic review used the PICO search strategy.  The data sources used came from 3 databases namely Pubmed, ProQuest, and ScientDirect. Based on the database, 5 articles were obtained that met the inclusion criteria. Inclusion criteria include respondents are premature infants < 37 weeks gestational age, articles used in the last 10 years (2016 to 2026) and use English. Results: The study showed that position change interventions had a significant effect on the cardiorespiratory status of preterm infants. Pronation (prone) positioning and its variations, such as quarter prone positioning help maintain cardiorespiratory stability of preterm infants. However, there are certain indications and contraindications in the application of pronation position that need to be considered. Conclusion: Pronation and semi pronation positions have been shown to increase lung expansion, oxygen saturation, and decrease respiratory frequency and pulse rate, thus helping to maintain cardiorespiratory stability of preterm infants.

Abstract

Background: The toddler period, often referred to as the golden period, is critical for optimizing child growth and development. Based on Padang Health Office data (2024), Community Health Center Pemancungan achieved the highest performance in growth and development monitoring indicators, while Community health center Pauh recorded the lowest. Purpose: To comparatively analyze the implementation of health policies in toddler growth and development monitoring between Community health center Pemancungan and Community health center Pauh in Padang City. Method: A qualitative design using an input–process–output system approach. Informants included the mayor, head of the health office, heads of Community health center, program managers, regional supervisors, and Integrated health service post cadres. Data were collected through interviews, observation, and documentation, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman method. Results: Policy implementation refers to Minister of Health Regulation No. 6 of 2024 on Minimum Service Standards and is operationalized through Integrated health service post activities, including weighing, height measurement, vitamin A supplementation, and developmental screening. Although Community health center Pauh has more human resources and facilities, utilization remains suboptimal. Both Community health center show gaps in implementation processes, particularly in adherence to standards, recording, and reporting. Output indicators indicate that monthly monitoring is conducted but has not yet achieved program targets. Conclusion: The implementation of toddler growth and development monitoring policies in both Community health center remains suboptimal. Strengthening planning, improving implementation quality, and reinforcing continuous monitoring and evaluation are essential to enhance program performance.

Abstract

Background: Gallbladder cancer is the most common tumor of the biliary tract and is recognized as one of the most aggressive gastrointestinal malignancies with a poor prognosis. Most cases are diagnosed at an advanced stage, which limits therapeutic options. According to data from the International Agency for Research on Cancer through the Global Cancer Observatory (GLOBOCAN) on 2018, gallbladder cancer ranks 22nd in global cancer incidence and 17th among the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Purpose: To describe the diagnostic approach and surgical management of a patient with suspected malignant gallbladder tumor. Method: Descriptive analytic research used a case study approach involving a 51-year-old woman presented with a chief complaint of right upper abdominal pain that had persisted for three months prior to hospital admission. Clinical and diagnostic evaluations were performed using abdominal ultrasonography, multislice computed tomography (MSCT), and magnetic resonance imaging with Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRI-MRCP) to establish the diagnosis and determine tumor staging. Results: Radiological findings revealed a mass in the gallbladder suggestive of a malignant gallbladder tumor with a clinical stage of cT3N1M0. The patient subsequently underwent surgical intervention through an open laparotomy approach consisting of cholecystectomy combined with resection of tumor-invaded tissues or adjacent organs. Postoperatively, the patient’s condition was stable, and further oncological management with chemotherapy was planned as part of a comprehensive treatment strategy. Conclusion: Gallbladder tumor at stage cT3N1M0 represents an aggressive malignancy that is often diagnosed at an advanced stage. A multimodal diagnostic approach and adequate surgical resection are essential in the management of this condition to improve patient survival outcomes.

Abstract

Background: Dangke is a traditional fermented dairy product from South Sulawesi, Indonesia, with considerable potential to be developed as a functional food based on local wisdom. Beyond its role as a source of animal protein, dangke contains lactic acid bacteria and bioactive compounds that may confer health benefits. However, scientific evidence regarding its nutritional value, microbiological characteristics, and bioactive potential remains fragmented and has not been systematically synthesized. Purpose: To identify, synthesize, and critically evaluate various research results related to nutritional composition, microbiological safety, and potential of bioactive compounds in dangke. Method: This study employed a literature review design by analyzing national and international scientific articles published between 2015 and 2025. Literature searches were conducted using PubMed, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, and ResearchGate databases. Eligible articles were analyzed narratively through summarizing, synthesizing, comparing, and critically appraising processes to evaluate the nutritional composition, microbiological properties, and bioactive potential of dangke. Results: A total of 10 relevant studies were included. The findings indicate that dangke contains relatively high protein levels (approximately 14–18%), fat, and essential micronutrients such as vitamin A, vitamin C, zinc, and selenium. Microbiologically, dangke is predominantly composed of lactic acid bacteria, particularly Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus fermentum, which exhibit probiotic potential. Fermentation processes produce bioactive peptides associated with antihypercholesterolemic, antihyperglycemic, anti-obesity, antimicrobial, and immunomodulatory effects, primarily supported by experimental animal studies. Conclusion: Based on available scientific evidence, dangke demonstrates a combination of nutritional value, beneficial microbiological activity, and bioactive potential that supports its role as an Indonesian functional food. Nevertheless, broader application requires standardized production methods, improved food safety practices, and further human clinical studies to strengthen the level of evidence.

Abstract

Background: My Healthy Indonesia Application is a cornerstone of Indonesia's health system digital transformation, designed to streamline vaccination recording and reporting. However, its implementation at community health centers in Padang City faces challenges, marked by data discrepancies and suboptimal vaccination coverage. Purpose: To identify healthcare worker performance in implementing the healthy Indonesia application. Method: A mixed-methods study was conducted in five Community Health Center in Padang City. The quantitative phase employed a cross-sectional design with total sampling of 127 health workers. Data were collected using validated questionnaires and analyzed using chi-square and multivariate logistic regression. The qualitative phase involved in-depth interviews with 13 key informants, analyzed using thematic analysis. This study investigates factors associated with health workers' performance in using My Healthy Indonesia Application and explores underlying reasons behind these challenges. Results: Quantitative analysis revealed that motivation (p=0.014), leadership (p=0.018), and workload (p=0.009) were significantly associated with performance, with motivation as the most dominant factor (OR 0.254; p=0.011). Knowledge (p=0.602) was not significantly associated. Qualitative findings generated seven themes: complex motivational dynamics dominated by professional responsibility; significant infrastructure limitations (reliance on personal devices/internet); persistent application bugs (data loss, duplication); increased administrative workload; a digital generation gap; adaptive strategies (time management, team collaboration); and a clear recommendation for a single, integrated application. Conclusion: Health worker performance in using My Healthy Indonesia Application presents a paradox: good performance persists despite significant systemic barriers, primarily driven by strong intrinsic motivation. However, this reliance on individual resilience is unsustainable. Improving My Healthy Indonesia Application effectiveness requires holistic interventions addressing technical issues, reducing workload, bridging the digital divide, and nurturing the professional dedication of health workers.

Abstract

Background: Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical syndrome with an increasing prevalence that contributes to decreased quality of life and increased mortality. Adherence to medication therapy and a low-sodium diet is a key component of HF management; however, patient adherence remains low. Various factors, including psychosocial aspects, influence this condition. Purpose: To identify and synthesize psychosocial factors that significantly influence adherence to medication therapy and a low-sodium diet in patients with heart failure based on the literature published between 2015 and 2025 Method: This systematic literature review was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. A literature search was performed across six databases using the PICOT framework: PubMed, ProQuest, Scopus, EBSCOhost, SAGE, and ClinicalKey for Nursing. The quality of the articles was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) critical appraisal tools. Results: A total of 10 articles with a combined sample of 5.611 participants pant were analyzed. The results indicate that depression and anxiety are negative psychological predictors that reduce patients’ motivation and self-regulation regarding adherence. Depression emerged as the dominant factor associated with decreased medication adherence. Social factors, particularly social support, act as protective factors that improve treatment adherence. As a component of social support, family support specifically contributes to adherence to a low-sodium diet through a proxy adherence mechanism. Conclusion: Psychosocial factors influence adherence to therapy in patients with heart failure. Therefore, a holistic approach integrating psychosocial interventions is needed to optimize therapeutic adherence and improve clinical outcomes.

Abstract

Background: Emotional dysregulation is a major risk factor for varios mental health issues and maladaptive behaviors in adolescents, including self-harm and sacred ideation. Self-compassion (SC) based interventions have been recognized as a promising approach to counter self-criticism and enhance emotional coping skills. Purpose: To evaluate and synthesize the evidence regarding the effectiveness of SC interventions in mental health of adolescents. Method: This systematic review followed the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Literature searches were conducted in PubMed, ScienceDirect, ProQuest, and Sage Journals for studies published between 2016 and 2025. Eligible studies included adolescents aged 10–19 years receiving self-compassion–based interventions, using RCT or quasi-experimental designs, and reporting mental health outcomes. Screening was conducted using Rayyan after duplicate removal. Methodological quality was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2.0 and ROBINS-I tools. Results: All eight studies consistently demonstrated that self-compassion based interventions led to a significant improvement in emotion regulation capacity, encompassing enhanced adaptive cognitive strategies (eg, positive reappraisal) and behavioral aspects of emotional regulation improvement. The interventions prove effective in both group and individual settings. However, most studies presented methodological limitations, including small sample sizes, quasi-experimental design and short follow-up periods. Conclusion: Self-compassion based intervention is an effective and clinically relevant approach for enhancing emotion regulation in adolescents, especially for those in high-risk groups. Further research, ideally large-scale RCTs, with standardized measurements and long-term follow up, is necessary to strengthen the external validity of these findings and support broader program implementation in schools and clinical services.
