Abstract

Anemia is a condition in which hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit, and red blood cell counts are below normal levels or the recommended limits. Various pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches have been implemented to address anemia in adolescents. One such approach is the use of moringa leaves, which are commonly found in North Sumatra. This study aims to determine the effect of moringa leaf decoction on increasing hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls at SMA N 4 BINJAI. This study used a quantitative approach. The analytical pre-experimental research design used a one-group pre-post-test design. Twelve respondents were selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data analysis was performed using a Paired Samples T-Test. The results of this study using the Paired Samples T-Test showed a p-value of 0.001 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant difference between hemoglobin levels before and after the intervention. This indicates a significant effect of Moringa leaf decoction on increasing hemoglobin levels to prevent anemia in adolescent girls. It is concluded that Moringa leaf decoction increases hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls to prevent anemia and can be applied as a non-pharmacological therapy in the management of hypertension in health facilities.

Abstract

Older adults are a population group that is vulnerable to increased uric acid levels due to the aging process accompanied by decreased metabolic function and renal excretion. Elevated uric acid levels can cause joint pain, limited physical activity, and a decline in the quality of life of older adults. One non-pharmacological intervention that can be applied to help reduce uric acid levels is ergonomic exercise. This study aimed to determine the effect of ergonomic exercise on reducing uric acid levels in older adults in Dusun I Medan Estate. This study employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach. The sample consisted of 13 older adults selected using a total sampling technique. The ergonomic exercise intervention was carried out regularly according to standard operating procedures. Uric acid levels were measured before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate analysis, including the Shapiro–Wilk normality test and the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The results showed a significant decrease in uric acid levels after the ergonomic exercise intervention, with a p-value of 0.002 (p < 0.05). It can be Conclusion: that ergonomic exercise has a significant effect on reducing uric acid levels in older adults in Dusun I Medan Estate. Suggestions: Future studies are recommended to use a quasi-experimental design with a control group, a larger sample size, and a longer intervention duration to evaluate long-term effects.

Abstract

Adolescents are an age group in a transitional phase toward adulthood and are highly susceptible to environmental influences, especially from peers. Peer interaction can shape both positive and negative behaviors, including smoking behavior. Smoking among adolescents is a serious health problem because it can lead to nicotine dependence and increase the risk of chronic diseases from a young age. The objective of this study is to determine the relationship between peer interaction and smoking behavior among adolescents at SMP Negeri 3 Siempat Nempu Hulu, Sidikalang.This study employed a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional study design. The sampling technique used was total sampling, involving 51 respondents. Data were collected using questionnaires on peer interaction and smoking behavior. Data analysis was performed using the Spearman Rank correlation test. The results showed a significant relationship between peer interaction and smoking behavior among adolescents, with a p-value <0.05 and a correlation coefficient of r = –0.576. This indicates that the stronger the positive peer interaction, the lower the tendency of adolescents to engage in smoking behavior.There is a significant relationship between peer interaction and smoking behavior among adolescents.

Abstract

Preschool children’s independence in performing toilet training is an important indicator of early childhood development related to health, psychological, and social aspects. However, some preschool children are still not independent, as indicated by their dependence on adult assistance and the continued use of diapers, highlighting the need for appropriate interventions through structured toilet training education tailored to the child’s developmental stage. This study aimed to determine the effect of toilet training education on the independence of preschool children in performing toilet training at PAUD Gansir, Sirisirisi Village. The study employed a quantitative method with a pre-experimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest approach. Total sampling was applied, resulting in 12 respondents. The education was delivered in two sessions, and children’s independence levels were measured before the intervention and one month after the final session using a questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. The results showed an increase in children’s independence after the education, with a p-value of 0.002 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant effect of toilet training education on preschool children’s independence. In conclusion, repeated toilet training education accompanied by a one-month habituation period effectively improved children’s independence optimally and sustainably. Future studies are recommended to use a quasi-experimental design, larger sample size, inclusion of toddlers, and longer, more innovative educational interventions to enhance generalizability.
