Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aimed to examine the relationship between environmental health conditions and the incidence of ARI among elementary school students. Methodology: An analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among 80 students at San Roque Elementary School. Environmental health conditions were assessed using a structured observational checklist covering ventilation, sanitation, classroom density, waste management, and water availability. ARI incidence was determined through school health records and parental confirmation. Data were analyzed using Chi-square tests and multivariate logistic regression at a 95% confidence level. Main Findings: Of the observed classrooms, 40.0% were classified as having inadequate environmental health conditions. ARI prevalence among students was 36.3%. A significant association was identified between environmental health status and ARI incidence (p = 0.001). Students exposed to inadequate environmental conditions had 4.12 times higher odds of developing ARI (AOR = 4.12; 95% CI: 1.68–10.09; p = 0.002). Novelty/Originality of this study: This study advances prior research by operationalizing environmental health as a multidimensional composite construct within a real-world public elementary school setting, thereby generating context-specific empirical evidence linking structural environmental exposure to respiratory morbidity.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aimed to analyze changes in systolic and diastolic blood pressure following wet cupping therapy as a non-pharmacological intervention for hypertension control. Methodology: An analytical pre–post experimental study was conducted involving 32 adult participants undergoing wet cupping therapy. Blood pressure was measured before and after intervention using standardized procedures. Data were processed through editing and coding stages and analyzed using paired-samples t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test based on normality distribution. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. Main Findings: The mean change in systolic blood pressure was 1.09 ± 8.20 mmHg, while the mean change in diastolic blood pressure was 0.31 ± 7.06 mmHg. Twelve participants (38%) experienced a reduction in systolic blood pressure. However, overall differences in systolic and diastolic values before and after therapy were not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Novelty/Originality of this study: This study advances current evidence by positioning wet cupping therapy within an evidence-based non-pharmacological hypertension control framework and by separately analyzing systolic and diastolic hemodynamic responses using standardized statistical procedures.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aimed to determine the effect of audio-visual health education media on knowledge retention and compliance with personal protective equipment (PPE) use as a strategy to prevent occupational health risks among apple farmers in Kuala Pilah, Malaysia. Methodology: A pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was conducted involving 20 apple farmers selected through total sampling. Data were collected at four time points: baseline (T0), immediately after intervention (T1), one week (T2), and two weeks (T3) post-intervention. Knowledge was measured using a structured questionnaire, while PPE compliance was assessed through observation and self-report. Repeated measures analysis and paired categorical tests were applied with a significance level of p < 0.05. Main Findings: The mean knowledge score increased from 56.4 at baseline to 82.7 immediately after the intervention, and remained significantly higher at 78.9 (week 1) and 74.6 (week 2) (p < 0.001). PPE compliance improved from 30.0% at baseline to 70.0% post-intervention and was maintained at 70–75% during follow-up (p < 0.05). Novelty/Originality of this study: This study provides integrated evidence on both sustained knowledge retention and measurable behavioral compliance using repeated follow-up assessments in an agricultural occupational health context, demonstrating the effectiveness of audio-visual media beyond immediate learning outcomes.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: Headache is a highly prevalent neurological complaint commonly managed with pharmacological therapy, which may cause adverse effects with long-term use. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of cupping therapy as a nonpharmacological strategy for controlling headache among outpatients. Methodology: A quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was employed involving 16 outpatients with headache. Pain intensity was measured before and after cupping therapy using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Data were analyzed using the Shapiro–Wilk normality test followed by paired sample t-test with a significance level of p < 0.05. Main Findings: The mean VAS score significantly decreased from 6.75 ± 1.29 before intervention to 3.12 ± 1.15 after intervention, with a mean reduction of 3.63 points (t = 14.21; p < 0.001). Severe pain prevalence declined from 56.2% to 6.2% following therapy. These findings indicate that cupping therapy effectively reduces headache pain intensity in outpatient settings. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study positions cupping therapy as an evidence-informed nonpharmacological intervention within structured outpatient healthcare services, quantitatively bridging traditional therapeutic practice with modern clinical evaluation using standardized pain measurement and statistical validation.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aimed evaluate association between open umbilical cord care and neonatal infection within 28 days postpartum in primary midwifery facilities in Iseyin, Oyo State, Nigeria, and to identify independent biological and environmental predictors of infection risk. Methodology: A retrospective cohort design was applied to 980 term neonates delivered between January 2022 and December 2024 in six registered primary obstetric centers in Iseyin, Oyo State, Nigeria. Data were extracted from maternity registers and follow-up records. Multivariable log-binomial regression and 1:1 propensity score matching were performed using STATA version 17 to estimate adjusted relative risks (RR) with 95% confidence intervals. Main Findings: Neonatal infection occurred in 8.7% of the open cord care group and 6.5% of antiseptic group. After multivariable adjustment and propensity score matching, open cord care was not significantly associated with increased infection risk (aRR 1.15; 95% CI 0.76–1.73; p = 0.49). Low birth weight, prolonged rupture of membranes, and limited household sanitation were independent predictors, while early breastfeeding initiation was protective. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study provides context-specific effectiveness evidence on open umbilical cord care within real-world primary midwifery services in semi-urban West Africa. By integrating propensity score matching with routine service data, it bridges the gap between controlled antiseptic trials and implementation-level nursing practice, supporting risk-stratified and system-oriented neonatal infection prevention strategies.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aimed to develop and validate a competency-based clinical skills development model for nursing assistant students and evaluate its effectiveness in improving clinical performance, procedural competence, and self-efficacy. Methodology: A Design and Development Research (DDR) approach with a sequential exploratory mixed-methods design was employed. Phase 1 involved qualitative needs assessment with 24 students and 6 clinical instructors to identify competency gaps. A competency-based learning model integrating structured simulation, standardized rubrics, DOPS-based formative feedback, and OSCE assessment was subsequently constructed and validated by seven experts (S-CVI = 0.92). Effectiveness was evaluated using a quasi-experimental pre-test–post-test control group design with 64. Outcomes included OSCE performance, DOPS ratings, and clinical self-efficacy. Data were analyzed using ANCOVA and effect size calculations. Main Findings: The intervention group demonstrated significantly higher post-test OSCE scores (82.6 ± 5.9 vs. 69.4 ± 6.7; p < 0.001; d = 1.95), improved DOPS ratings (4.3 ± 0.4 vs. 3.5 ± 0.5; p < 0.001), and increased self-efficacy (81.1 ± 7.5 vs. 64.3 ± 8.1; p < 0.001; d = 2.09) compared to controls. Skill retention at four weeks remained significantly higher in the intervention group (p < 0.001). Novelty/Originality of this study: Findings support structured operationalization of competency-based education in assistant-level nursing training and provide an empirically grounded framework for curriculum reform.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study examined the predictive relationship between digital cultural intelligence and clinical adaptability among nursing assistant students at a health sciences college in Morocco. Methodology: A cross-sectional design was employed with 287 students who had completed at least one clinical placement. Data were analysed using partial leas squares structural equation modellingi (PLS-SEM) to test a theory-driven conceptual framework. Measurement model evaluation confirmed satisfactory reliability and validity (CR > 0.90; AVE > 0.50; HTMT < 0.85). Structural analysis revealed that digital cultural intelligence significantly predicted clinical adaptability (β = 0.64, p < 0.001), explaining 41% of the variance (R² = 0.41). Predictive relevance was supported (Q² = 0.29), and robustness checks using covariance-based SEM confirmed acceptable model fit indices. Main Findings: The findings indicate that the capacity to navigate culturally diverse interactions within digitally mediated healthcare environments is a substantial determinant of adaptive clinical reasoning, flexible communication, and ethical responsiveness. By empirically validating digital cultural intelligence as a multidimensional construct in vocational nursing education, this study advances theoretical integration between intercultural competence and adaptive expertise frameworks. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study contributes Global South evidence to international nursing education research and provides a predictive model for curriculum innovation in digitally transitioning healthcare contexts.
