Abstract

Stunting is a health problem that threatens human quality and the competitiveness of the nation. This condition has an impact on the physical, mental, and cognitive development of toddlers and increases the risk of disease. There are still many toddlers who are diagnosed with stunting but do not receive treatment. Treatment-seeking behavior is influenced by knowledge, attitudes, stigma, and community beliefs. This research aims to analyze the relationship between stigma and health literacy with treatment-seeking behavior. The research design uses a correlational analytical approach that is cross-sectional. The independent variables are stigma and health literacy, while the dependent variable is treatment-seeking behavior. This research was conducted in the Keling II Community Health Center Working Area, Jepara Regency, in January 2025. The research sample was 100 caregivers of stunted toddlers and was taken using techniques of purposive sampling. The research instrument includes a stigma questionnaire using (SSCI-8), a questionnaire on health literacy using (HLS-EU-Q16), and a questionnaire on treatment-seeking behavior using (GHSQ). Data analysis using chi-square tests. The results of this study show that there is a significant relationship between stigma (p=0.002; r=0.394) and health literacy (p=0.000; r=0.448) with treatment-seeking behavior in caregivers of stunted toddlers. Stigma and health literacy play a role in shaping behavior in seeking health assistance, especially among caregivers of toddlers with stunting in rural areas. There needs to be intervention to reduce negative stigma and increase health literacy so that caregivers of stunted toddlers have the awareness to carry out screening and treat stunting in health service facilities.

Abstract

Background: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a life-threatening problem. CKD patients who require hemodialysis therapy experience a significant increase; one of the important indicators in hemodialysis therapy is interdialytic weight gain (IDWG). In practice, there are still cases where patients experience high IDWG, which is suspected to be due to non-compliance with the schedule or length of hemodialysis sessions. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the relationship between frequency and compliance with the value of IDWG in CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis. Methods: This quantitative study uses a correlative analytical research method with a cross-sectional approach. The population was 47 chronic kidney failure patients undergoing hemodialysis at the Muhammadiyah Mayong Hospital, Jepara. The instruments used were weight scales, patient medical records, and End-Stage Renal Disease Adherence Questionnaire (ESRD-AQ) questionnaires. Bivariate analysis in this study used the Spearman Rho test. Results: The results of this study are that most respondents have undergone hemodialysis for more than 12 months, as many as 20 respondents (42.6%); respondents who are compliant with hemodialysis are 25 respondents (53.2%); and most respondents experienced a mild weight gain category of 16 respondents (34%). There is a relationship between the length of time (p-value = 0.001, r= 0,762) and hemodialysis compliance (p-value = 0.003, r= 0,578) with the interdialytic weight gain value in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis at the hospital. Conclusion: Frequency and compliance have a relationship with the value of IDWG in CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis. The correlation between two variables are direct and positive means that the more compliant with HD, the value of IDWG is lower.

Abstract

Hypertension is a major risk factor for increasing mortality and morbidity rates. This is supported by the increasing prevalence of hypertension cases every year worldwide. If blood pressure cannot be controlled, it will lead to complications such as stroke, retinopathy, heart failure, heart attack, kidney failure, and disability. Therefore, adherence to treatment is crucial to prevent these complications. However, in the treatment of long-term diseases such as hypertension, which require lifelong treatment, barriers to medication adherence often occur. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between knowledge and stress with medication adherence in hypertension patients in rural areas. The study design used correlation analysis with a cross-sectional approach. The independent variables were knowledge and stress, while the dependent variable was medication adherence. This study was conducted in two villages in Kudus Regency, which is the locus of hypertension, in April 2025. The study sample consisted of 97 respondents selected through a cross-sectional approach through purposive sampling based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The instruments used include the Hill-Bone Compliance to High Blood Pressure Therapy Scale, the Hypertension Knowledge-Level Scale, and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10). Data analysis using the chi-square test. The results of the study showed a significant relationship between knowledge (p=0.000) and stress (p=0.000) with medication adherence. Knowledge and stress are associated with medication adherence in hypertensive clients. Community health centers need to implement innovative programs to improve medication adherence through structured health education and stress management.

Abstract

Background Digital transformation in healthcare and nursing education increases the need for nursing graduates who are digitally capable and work-ready, making digital literacy a foundational competency that should be deliberately developed rather than assumed. At the same time, nursing students’ career intentions are shaped by educational and contextual influences, and intention-related patterns are relevant to workforce sustainability, including in Indonesia where nursing students may consider varied career trajectories. Students’ perceptions of digital health technologies also suggest that digitalization can shape how they imagine their future nursing roles, reinforcing the educational importance of digital competence development. Objective To examine whether digital literacy significantly predicts intention to become a nurse among Indonesian undergraduate nursing students, controlling for age, sex, PKK training/competence, and cohort. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted among undergraduate nursing students at Jenderal Soedirman University, Indonesia (n = 282). Digital literacy was measured using an 11-item instrument (α = 0.87), and intention to become a nurse was measured using a 4-item instrument (CVI = 0.93; α = 0.78). Multiple linear regression tested whether digital literacy predicted intention to become a nurse after adjusting for covariates. The use of cross-sectional survey designs and regression modeling aligns with common approaches in nursing education research examining digital literacy-related competencies and career intention outcomes. Results Participants were predominantly female (84.4%) with mean age 19.4 ± 1.6 years. Mean digital literacy score was 45.54 ± 5.54 (range 23–55), and mean intention to become a nurse was 16.37 ± 2.73 (range 6–20). Digital literacy significantly predicted intention to become a nurse (B = 0.187, SE = 0.026, t = 7.08, p < 0.001), controlling for age, sex, PKK, and cohort. The model was significant (F (8, 273) = 10.97, p < 0.001) with R² = 0.243 (adjusted R² = 0.221). Cohort was significant for Batch 2022 (p = 0.018), Batch 2023 (p = 0.050), and Batch 2025 (p = 0.042). Conclusion Higher digital literacy is associated with stronger intention to become a nurse among Indonesian nursing students, independent of demographic factors and educational cohort. These findings support curricular strategies that assess and strengthen nursing students’ digital literacy as part of developing digitally fluent, work-ready graduates, consistent with broader calls to embed digital capability development within nursing education.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Background. The kidneys are vital organs that function to filter blood and remove metabolic waste. The consumption pattern of ultra-processed food (UPF) and unhealthy drinking habits can put an excessive burden on kidney function. Health students, although they have knowledge about kidney health, do not necessarily implement consumption behaviors that support the maintenance of kidney function. Methods. This study used a descriptive quantitative approach with a survey method of 45 nursing students from the Nursing Study Program in Purwokerto City. Data were collected using a questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability, then analyzed descriptively. Results. The results showed that 82.2% of respondents consumed ultra-processed food more than three times a week, and 73.3% had met the daily water consumption needs of ± 2 liters. The habit of consuming ultra-processed foods can have a negative impact on kidney health. This condition can be worsened when they also pay less attention to drinking at least 1.5-2 liters of mineral water per day. Conclusion. There are habits of nursing students in drinking water to support kidney health, but not for the habit of consuming ultra-processed food. Therefore, educational interventions and healthy campus policies are needed to encourage changes in consumption behavior. Keywords: life style, student, health, kidneys.

Abstract

Background: Caring behavior is essential in nursing professionalism and is linked to the quality of nursing care. Nurses are responsible for providing holistic, patient-centered healthcare that includes various dimensions of well-being. However, nursing practice often lacks a holistic approach, especially as patient cases become more complex. Balancing critical thinking skills with caring behavior is crucial to meet the demands of nursing practice. Objective: To examine the association between critical thinking skills and caring behavior among ward inpatient nurses at Perkebunan Jember Klinik Hospital. Methods: A cross-sectional correlational study was conducted among all 82 nurses in tbe inpatient ward through total sampling. Critical thinking ability were measured using a NCT-4 Practice, and Caring behavior were assessed using Caring Behavior Questionnaire. Descriptive statistics were calculated for participant characteristics and study variables. The association between critical thinking skills and caring behavior was tested using Kendall’s Tau C (a =0,05). Results: Participants had a median age of 35 years and the work experience of nurses 10,5 years, were most female (76,8%), with the nurses’ highest education is in the nursing profession (72%) and the majority nurses are married (93,9%). The majority partisipants also attended the training (91,5%). Kendall’s Tau C indicated a statistically significant, weak correlation between critical thinking skills and caring behavior, with moderate critical thinking skills tending to be associated (|τ| = 0,376, p = 0,000), with caring conduct that is nonetheless considered to be deficient Conclusion: Critical thinking skills were significantly correlation with caring behavior among ward inpatient nurses.The development of evidence-based practice and the enhancement of clinical reasoning capacity through training and independent literature exploration are recommended to improve daily clinical critical thinking skills.
