Abstract

Introduction: Hypertension during pregnancy is a common complication that increases the risk of preeclampsia, leading to maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Box breathing techniques have shown promise in lowering blood pressure and stress, but their effectiveness in pregnant women at risk of hypertension and preeclampsia has not been widely studied. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a prototype box breathing intervention in reducing blood pressure and symptoms in pregnant women at risk of these conditions. Methods: A quantitative, experimental study with a pretest-posttest design was conducted at four hospitals in Indonesia. A sample of 198 pregnant women in their 1st-3rd trimesters was selected using purposive sampling. The intervention involved the use of a prototype box breathing device, and data were collected on blood pressure and symptoms before and after the intervention. Data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon test. Results: After the prototype box breathing intervention, there was a significant decrease in systolic blood pressure from 147.83 mmHg to 132.36 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure from 94.76 mmHg to 86.16 mmHg (p-value 0.000). The average symptom score also decreased from 5.93 to 1.25 following the intervention. Conclusion: The use of the prototype box breathing device is effective in lowering blood pressure and reducing symptoms associated with preeclampsia risk in pregnant women. This non-pharmacological intervention offers a promising approach for managing hypertension during pregnancy and preventing the progression to preeclampsia. Further research is needed to validate these findings and optimize the implementation of box breathing techniques in prenatal care.

Abstract

Introduction: Malaria vaccines show significant potential for disease control but face challenges, including declining efficacy over time and resistance to drugs and insecticides. Despite the initial success of vaccines like RTS,S/AS01, an integrated approach is still needed to address malaria’s complex transmission dynamics across endemic regions. This review examines the current status, challenges, and future prospects of malaria vaccine development, focusing on the impact of combining pre-erythrocytic vaccines and transmission-blocking drugs using mathematical modeling to enhance their effectiveness in reducing transmission. Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted using the PICO framework to evaluate the effectiveness of malaria vaccines in reducing disease transmission. The review included studies involving vulnerable populations, particularly children in African countries. It compared the effectiveness of malaria vaccines with other control strategies, such as insecticide-treated bed nets and antimalarial drugs. Five relevant primary journals were analyzed using databases like PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. Results: Findings reveal that newly developed malaria vaccines have significant potential to reduce malaria cases. However, large-scale implementation and regular vaccination strategies are required for sustained effectiveness. Genetic studies highlight the emergence of resistance, emphasizing the need for adaptable vaccines and strategies. Conclusion: Malaria vaccines, while promising, face obstacles such as waning efficacy and resistance. A combined strategy involving vaccines and transmission-blocking treatments is essential for global malaria elimination. Further research and strategic implementation are needed to optimize vaccine effectiveness and overcome these challenges.

Abstract

Introduction: This research aims to see the effect of modifying Melodic Intonation Therapy (MIT) and Dhikr Asmaul Husna in audio form on the speaking ability of stroke patients. Aphasia is a disability problem experienced by stroke patients and can become persistent, reducing their quality of life. Efforts are needed to improve speaking ability so patients can continuously and independently carry out post-stroke speech exercises at home. The results showed that MIT gave better results in improving the speech ability of stroke patients. In the MIT method, patients repeat words spoken by nurses or family members using musical elements while speaking. Methods: This type of research is quantitative with a quasi-experimental design pre and post-test. Researchers carry out interventions using media in the form of Melodic Intonation Therapy Audio (MIT-A), which results from research development. This study's population is stroke patients treated at Dr. Soekardjo Tasikmalaya Hospital, Prasetya Bunda Hospital, and Banjar City Hospital. The sample consisted of 33 respondents from three Tasikmalaya and Banjar City hospitals. Exercises start when the patient is treated and continue to be done at home. Speech ability was evaluated using the TADIR method (Aphasia Test for Diagnostics and Rehabilitation), assessed before the intervention and at the first control visit. The intervention was carried out for one month. The hypothesis in this study is that there is a difference in the average score of speech ability before and after the intervention. The t-dependent test tests the difference in TADIR scores before and after training. Results: The study showed a difference in the average TADIR score before and after training (p-value 0.000). This indicates that speech training using MIT-Audio has a significant effect on the speaking ability of stroke patients. Conclusion: The results of this study conclude that speech training through modified MIT in audio form improves the speaking ability of stroke patients who experience aphasia. The researcher recommends that future researchers apply this speech training media by differentiating the type of aphasia experienced by the patient.

Abstract

Introduction: The government has implemented various efforts to address nutritional issues, one of which is the issuance of Presidential Regulation No. 42 of 2013. This regulation governs the National Movement for the Acceleration of Nutrition Improvement, involving collective efforts by the government and stakeholders. To achieve substantial results, stunting reduction efforts must be integrated and converge across multiple sectors. This study aims to describe the collaboration process in stunting reduction, which presents significant challenges in implementation. Methods: A qualitative method with an interactive data-analysis approach was used in this study. The analysis involved three key stages: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. Results: The study revealed that the collaboration process begins with face-to-face dialogue, fostering trust and leading to a commitment to the process. This is achieved through mutual understanding and shared benefits. While face-to-face dialogue is progressing, the involvement of diverse stakeholders remains limited. Nevertheless, the actors involved demonstrate mutual trust, a shared vision, and commitment to a joint agenda. In Central Buton Regency, collaboration is essential to address stunting effectively. Conclusion: The study concludes that while face-to-face meetings involve key parties, broader stakeholder participation, such as community leaders, is still lacking. However, mutual trust and a shared vision among existing participants highlight the importance of multisectoral involvement in reducing stunting prevalence

Abstract

Introduction: Data from the 2023 electronic recording and reporting system for community-based nutrition (e-PPGBM) shows a stunting rate of 15,2% in NTT, while the 2022 SSGI data reports a stunting rate of 35,3%. The accuracy of data on stunting cases is critical. To date, the Posyandu (integrated health post) in NTT still relies on manual data recording, which is collected at the Puskesmas (community health centers). The city of Kupang has implemented the e-PPGBM system since 2016, but user acceptance has not been fully assessed due to a lack of studies on the subject. Thus, an evaluation of the knowledge, attitudes, roles and also length of work of Posyandu cadres and the acceptance level of e-PPGBM operators in all Puskesmas in Kupang is necessary. Methods: This study was conducted in 11 Puskesmas in Kupang with 55 Posyandu cadres and 55 e-PPGBM operators as respondents. This study is a mixed- method research. The study used an observational method using questionnaires. System acceptance of e-PPGBM was measured using the HOT (Human-Organization-Technology) model, combined with aspects of regulation and benefits. Qualitative data were collected through in-depth interviews, while secondary data were obtained from e-PPGBM records in the Puskesmas from January to June 2024. Results: The evaluation of the knowledge, attitude, and role of the cadres in early detection of stunting was categorized as good. There was a significant correlation between length of work experience and knowledge (p = 0,036, r=0,036) and the attitude of the cadres (p = 0,034, r=0,054). The system acceptance measurement of e-PPGBM operators was categorized as good in the human aspect, and very good in the organization, technology, knowledge, regulation, and benefit aspects, with correlations found between all variables. Conclusion: Posyandu cadres in Kupang have not yet used the e-PPGBM application, monthly recordings at the Posyandu are still manual, and the application is entirely managed by nutrition officers at the Puskesmas. Limited internet access is a major challenge in using the application. Training is needed to involve cadres in using the application, alongside infrastructure improvements (internet network, PCs, and laptops) at both the Posyandu and Puskesmas levels

Abstract

Introduction: Diarrhea cases in the Seribu Islands were recorded in 190 cases in 2021 and in 461 cases in 2022. The factors influencing the incidence of diarrhea are knowledge, attitudes and practices, clean water sources, and clean water quality. The aim of the study was to analyze factors related to the incidence of diarrhea in the Seribu Islands District. Methods: This study was conducted in the Seribu Islands District from February to August 2024. This study was an observational analysis with a case-control approach design. The respondent criteria include having a history of diarrhea in the South Seribu Islands District, as showed by a doctor's diagnosis and positive laboratory results for diarrhea from January to December 2022, and having resided there for more than six months. The case group was consisted of 37 samples and the control group consisted of 37 samples. The independent variables in this study were the biological, physical, and chemical quality of clean water, clean water sources, knowledge, attitudes, and practice. The collected data were analyzed using the chi-square and logistic regression test using SPSS software. Results: The variables of physical quality of clean water, clean water sources, knowledge and practices of respondents did not have a significant effect on the incidence of diarrhea (p>0.05). Meanwhile, the biological and chemical quality of clean water, and the respondents' attitudes had a significant effect on the incidence of diarrhea (p <0.05). Based on the results of the multivariate analysis, the biological quality of clean water had a significant effect (p = 0.001) with an odds ratio of 9.18. The most influential factor on the incidence of diarrhea is the biological quality of the clean water. Conclusion: The variables of knowledge, attitudes, practices, clean water sources, and physical and chemical quality of water showed no effect on the incidence of diarrhea (p value > 0.05). The biological quality of the water variable had an effect on the incidence of diarrhea (p value = 0.001), with an odds ratio of 9.18. Since E. coli-contaminated food and water contribute significantly to the spread of diarrheal illnesses in the community, it is crucial to monitor the quality of food and drinking water and to improve sanitation in order to reduce the prevalence of diarrhea, particularly in the Seribu Islands.
