<![CDATA[This study examined the relationship between parenting styles and temper tantrum behavior among preschool children at TK PGRI 87 Semarang. A quantitative correlational analytic design with a cross-sectional approach was employed. The population consisted of all parents or guardians of preschool children, and total sampling was applied, yielding 30 respondents. Data were collected on 15 November 2025 using two validated Likert-scale questionnaires: a 30-item parenting style instrument and a 33-item temper tantrum instrument. Validity coefficients ranged from 0.612–0.820 for parenting style and 0.617–0.959 for temper tantrum, while reliability testing produced a Cronbach’s Alpha of 0.812. Univariate analysis described respondent characteristics and variable distributions, while bivariate analysis used Spearman’s Rank correlation due to ordinal data. The results demonstrated a statistically significant relationship between parenting style and temper tantrum behavior (p = 0.003; α = 0.05). Authoritarian and permissive parenting were more frequently associated with moderate to high tantrum levels, whereas democratic parenting was linked to lower tantrum intensity. These findings highlight parenting style as a key determinant of emotional regulation development in preschool children. ]]>

<![CDATA[Picky eating behavior refers to selective food consumption that may affect adolescents’ nutritional adequacy and increase the risk of long-term health problems. Adolescence is characterized by psychological and social transitions, as well as the development of body image, all of which may shape food preferences. This study aimed to examine the relationship between age, sex, body mass index (BMI), stress level, and peer influence and picky eating behavior among adolescents. A descriptive analytic design with a cross-sectional approach was employed. The sample consisted of 107 respondents selected through simple random sampling at SMP Negeri 20 Semarang. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using the chi-square test. The findings revealed no significant associations between age, sex, BMI, stress level, or peer influence and picky eating behavior (p > 0.05). Nevertheless, a tendency toward picky eating was more frequently observed among older adolescents, males, and those with lower BMI. These results suggest that picky eating behavior may be influenced not only by measurable biological or social factors but also by family dietary habits, food preferences, and body perception. Therefore, nutrition education and the promotion of healthy eating habits through collaboration among health professionals, schools, and families are essential to prevent adverse long-term nutritional outcomes.]]>

<![CDATA[Exposure to cigarette smoke increases oxidative stress and triggers pulmonary inflammation through an increase in Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), which leads to an increase in interleukin-8 (IL-8). Clitoria ternatea (butterfly pea flower) is rich in anthocyanins, which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. This experimental study with a post-test only control group design aims to assess the effect of butterfly pea flower ethanol extract on IL-8 levels in male Wistar rats exposed to cigarette smoke. The subjects were divided into normal, negative control, positive control (aspirin 9 mg/kgBW), and two treatment groups with doses of 200 mg/kgBW and 400 mg/kgBW. IL-8 levels were measured using immunological methods. The results showed that IL-8 levels were highest in the negative control group (97.712 ± 0.717 ng/mL) and lowest in the normal group (40.306 ± 0.377 ng/mL). Administration of aspirin and extract doses of 200 mg/kgBW and 400 mg/kgBW significantly reduced IL-8 levels compared to the negative control (p < 0.05). The 400 mg/kgBW dose (42.888 ± 0.350 ng/mL) showed the most effective effect and was comparable to aspirin. ]]>

<![CDATA[Breast cancer is the second highest cancer case after lung cancer. In 2022, there was an increase of 2.31 million breast cancers worldwide. Meanwhile, in Indonesia, cancer cases rank first from the total cancer cases in Indonesia, which is 16.6% or 65,858 cases of breast cancer. Breast cancer which increases every year is due to delays in breast cancer diagnosis. Counseling or providing education about breast self-examination (BSE) in various ways will increase early detection of breast cancer. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of various educational media for BSE practices. The method used is the literature review method from several articles, 2 international articles indexed by Scopus and 8 national articles indexed by Sinta. Based on the 10 articles reviewed, the results showed that there are various educational media, both through electronic media and print media, that can increase the knowledge and skills of young women in doing BSE. It was concluded that audiovisuals, drama, power point, electronic media, videos, leaflets, booklets, demonstrations, Instagram, calendars, Android-based, and via zoom media had an effect on increasing BSE knowledge and skills. ]]>

<![CDATA[Bronchopneumonia is one of the leading causes of morbidity among children under five years of age and remains a common health problem. Exposure to cigarette smoke inside the household due to the smoking behavior of family members is an important environmental risk factor. Toddlers have immature immune systems and lung function, making them more susceptible to the adverse effects of cigarette smoke. This study aimed to determine the relationship between family members’ smoking behavior and the incidence of bronchopneumonia among children under five at Sari Asih Ciledug Hospital. This study employed a quantitative research design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 83 respondents selected using a total sampling technique. Data on family members’ smoking behavior were collected through a structured questionnaire, while data on the incidence of bronchopneumonia in toddlers were obtained from hospital medical records. Data analysis was performed using univariate analysis to describe respondent characteristics and bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test to examine the relationship between variables. The results showed a statistically significant relationship between family members’ smoking behavior and the incidence of bronchopneumonia among toddlers (p < 0.05). The Prevalence Odds Ratio (POR) value of 16.640 indicated that toddlers exposed to cigarette smoke had a higher risk of developing bronchopneumonia compared to those who were not exposed]]>

<![CDATA[Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) in children remains a significant health problem in Indonesia. The success of TB treatment in children greatly depends on the involvement and readiness of the family as the primary companion during therapy. Lack of knowledge, emotional readiness, and family support can lead to non-compliance with treatment and drug resistance. The OAT Parent's Program is a family-based intervention that aims to improve parents' readiness to accompany their children undergoing TB therapy. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the OAT Parent's Program on family readiness to undergo pulmonary TB treatment in children at the Sari Asih Ciledug Hospital children's ward. The study used a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test nonequivalent control group. The sample consisted of 60 respondents divided into an intervention group and a control group. The instruments used were questionnaires on knowledge, attitudes, actions, and family readiness. Data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon and Mann–Whitney tests. The results showed a significant increase in family readiness after the OAT Parent's Program was administered to the intervention group (p < 0.05). This program effectively improved the knowledge, attitudes, actions, and readiness of families compared to the control group. In conclusion, the OAT Parent's Program has been proven effective in improving families' readiness to accompany their children undergoing pulmonary TB treatment.]]>

<![CDATA[Patient misidentification constitutes a fundamental and preventable risk in healthcare delivery, which can be minimized through the establishment of a strong safety culture. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between safety culture and the accuracy of patient identification at Rumah Sakit Islam Sultan Agung Semarang. The research employed a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 94 staff nurses working in inpatient wards, selected using a total sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires and direct observation, and subsequently analyzed using the Spearman Rank correlation test. The findings revealed that most nurses demonstrated a moderate level of safety culture (40.4%) and good patient identification accuracy (43.6%). Statistical analysis indicated a significant but weak correlation between safety culture and the accuracy of patient identification (p-value = 0.043; r = 0.209). Safety culture contributes positively to identification accuracy, although it is not the sole determining factor. It is therefore recommended that hospitals strengthen periodic audits and develop non-punitive incident reporting systems to optimize compliance.]]>

<![CDATA[The operating room is a hospital unit with a high risk to patient safety; therefore, the implementation of patient safety is a crucial indicator of healthcare quality. However, patient safety incidents continue to occur and are influenced by factors such as communication, leadership, knowledge, attitudes, motivation, and incident reporting practices. This study aimed to analyze the factors affecting patient safety incidents in the operating room of RS Sari Asih Ciputat. This research employed a quantitative correlational analytic design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 35 nurses selected using total sampling. Research instruments included questionnaires on incident perception, reporting attitudes, work motivation, leadership based on the Leader–Member Exchange model, and incident reporting aligned with the International Patient Safety Goals. The results showed that most respondents were aged 17–25 years, female, held a diploma degree, had less than five years of work experience, and were permanent employees. Most respondents demonstrated poor perceptions and negative attitudes, while motivation and leadership were generally rated as good. Statistical analysis revealed a significant relationship between perception, attitude, motivation, and leadership and patient safety incidents in the operating room, with a p-value of 0.000. ]]>
