Abstract

Maternal health behaviors are a critical determinant of successful maternal healthcare outcomes; however, adherence to recommended health behaviors during pregnancy remains a significant challenge. Health education based on the Health Belief Model (HBM) has been recognized as an effective approach for modifying health behaviors by addressing individual perceptions and motivational factors. This literature review aimed to synthesize empirical evidence on the effectiveness of Health Belief Model–based health education in improving maternal health behaviors during pregnancy. This study employed a systematic literature review in accordance with the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Articles were retrieved from PubMed, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and national journal databases, covering publications from 2020 to 2025. A comprehensive literature search was conducted using predefined keywords, including Health Belief Model, Health Behaviors During Pregnancy, Health Education, and Pregnant Women. A total of 312 articles were identified, of which 72 duplicates were removed. The remaining 240 articles were screened based on titles and abstracts, resulting in the exclusion of 205 articles. Subsequently, 35 full-text articles were assessed for eligibility. Based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, 10 open-access studies involving pregnant women, applying the Health Belief Model, and reporting maternal health behavior outcomes were included in the qualitative synthesis. Health Belief Model–based health education was found to significantly improve maternal health behaviors, including adherence to antenatal care (ANC) visits, nutritional practices, compliance with iron–folic acid supplementation, physical activity, and disease prevention behaviors. Health education grounded in the Health Belief Model is an effective and relevant approach for enhancing maternal health behaviors during pregnancy and warrants integration into evidence-based maternal healthcare services.

Abstract

Schizophrenia is a chronic mental disorder characterized by delusions, a symptom of which is a disturbance in the patient's thought processes that impacts the patient's behavior. The purpose of this study was to describe a case of a schizophrenic patient with delusions as the primary symptom and comorbid hyperthyroidism who was given psychoreligious therapy. This qualitative case study involved a single patient diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and comorbid hyperthyroidism, selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through interviews, behavioral observations, physical examinations, and laboratory data. Management included pharmacological therapy in the form of antipsychotics and hyperthyroid medications, and non-pharmacological interventions in the form of reality orientation and psychoreligious therapy. The results of the therapy were obtained through daily observations, interviews, and assessment of reality orientation and behavioral responses, and were analyzed descriptively by comparing the patient’s condition before and after the intervention. The findings showed a decrease in the intensity of delusions, stabilization of thought patterns, and improvement in the patient’s behavioral functioning, including an increased ability to distinguish reality and more regular religious activities. The conclusion of this study is that hyperthyroidism is suspected to trigger symptoms of anxiety and physical complaints such as heart palpitations and abdominal pain due to irregular eating patterns. A holistic approach combining medical and psychosocial therapy was effective in managing schizophrenic symptoms and comorbid conditions, as well as improving the patient's quality of life.

Abstract

Although global incidence and mortality rates of tuberculosis (TB) have declined, TB remains the second leading cause of death worldwide after HIV/AIDS. To improve treatment adherence, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends the Directly Observed Treatment, (DOT) strategy, known in Indonesian as the Pengawas Minum Obat (PMO). PMOs are expected to support, remind, and motivate patients to complete their treatment regimen effectively. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of PMO use, identify PMO characteristics, assess medication adherence among active TB patients, and evaluate the relationship between PMO presence and adherence. A descriptive–analytic study with a cross-sectional design using total sampling of all TB patients who were actively undergoing treatment at the Sigerongan Primary Health Care. Data were collected through structured interviews and analyzed using the chi-square statistical test. The study found no significant difference in medication adherence between patients with a PMO and those without (p = 1.000; p > 0.05). Interestingly, 21.7% of patients with a PMO were still non-adherent to their treatment. The study found no significant difference in medication adherence between patients with a PMO and those without. This may be influenced by the small sample size and suboptimal role execution of PMOs.

Abstract

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is common in men and worsens with age. Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) is a common treatment but may cause post-operative pain. Non-pharmacological interventions such as warm and cold compresses are often used to reduce pain. Data from KHZ Musthafa Regional Hospital, Tasikmalaya Regency, recorded 302 BPH cases between April and June. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of warm and cold compresses in reducing post-operative pain in TURP patients. A quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design was used. The population consisted of 101 TURP patients over three months. Purposive sampling selected 60 participants, divided into Group 1 (warm compress, n = 30) and Group 2 (cold compress, n = 30). Warm compresses were applied using a hot water bottle, and cold compresses using ice water; temperatures were monitored with a thermometer. Pain was measured using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) before and after intervention. Data were analyzed using central tendency, paired t-tests, and independent sample t-tests. Participants were aged 61–70 years, mostly with junior or senior high school education, and worked in private sectors or as employees. Warm compresses reduced pain from 5.53 (moderate) to 3.07 (mild), and cold compresses from 5.63 to 3.90. Both interventions significantly reduced pain (p = 0.000), with warm compresses more effective than cold (p = 0.003). Warm compresses are more effective than cold compresses in reducing post-TURP pain, though both significantly decrease pain levels.

Abstract

Stress and anxiety are increasingly prevalent mental health problems among young adults, particularly those with sedentary lifestyles. High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is recognized as an effective non-pharmacological approach to improve mental health outcomes. Poundfit is a music-based HIIT exercise that combines rhythmic movements and high-intensity physical activity, which may provide optimal psychological benefits. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of Poundfit exercise in reducing stress and anxiety levels among young adults with sedentary lifestyles. This study used a randomized controlled trial (RCT) design with a pretest–posttest control group model. A total of 40 young adults with high sedentary behavior were randomly assigned to an intervention group (n = 20) and a control group (n = 20). The intervention group participated in a four-week Poundfit program (12 sessions), conducted three times per week for approximately 45 minutes per session. Stress and anxiety were measured using the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21). Data were analyzed using paired samples t-tests and independent samples t-tests, with statistical significance set at p < 0.05. The intervention group showed a significant reduction in stress and anxiety levels after completing the Poundfit program, whereas the control group did not demonstrate significant changes. Independent samples t-test results also indicated that posttest stress and anxiety scores in the intervention group were significantly lower than those in the control group. These findings suggest that Poundfit exercise is an effective HIIT-based intervention that can improve mental health outcomes among sedentary young adults. Poundfit exercise is effective as a practical and enjoyable HIIT intervention for reducing stress and anxiety among young adults with sedentary lifestyles. Further studies with larger and more diverse samples are recommended to confirm these findings and examine long-term effects.

Abstract

ARI remains one of the leading causes of death among infants, and the incidence of ARI is still quite high in the working area of the Simpang Timbangan Community Health Center. This study aims to determine the relationship between exposure to cigarette smoke and the incidence of ARI among infants in the working area of the Simpang Timbangan Community Health Center. This study used a cross-sectional approach involving 90 households with infants (infants, mothers, and family members who smoke) selected through purposive sampling to assess the relationship between the presence or absence of family members who smoke, CO levels, smoking locations, and the number of cigarettes smoked per day. Statistical analyses used included the Mann-Whitney test, Fisher's exact test, and chi-square test. Results: There were 35.6% of toddlers who experienced ARI. Furthermore, toddlers who lived with family members who smoked were significantly 1.64 times more at risk of experiencing ARI, and among toddlers who lived with smokers, they were 4.55 times more at risk of experiencing ARI if the smokers smoked inside or outside the house. The number of cigarettes smoked per day was also significantly associated with ARI, but CO levels were not significantly associated with ARI. Thus, the presence or absence of smokers, the location of smoking, and the number of cigarettes smoked per day were significantly associated with ARI, although CO levels were not significantly associated.

Abstract

Insulin injections and oral hypoglycemic drugs are the main therapies available for the treatment of diabetes. However, side effects and dependence make many sufferers not continue treatment. The development of plant-based antidiabetic alternatives continues, one of which is the genus Laportea, which contains flavonoids and derivative compounds, such as quercetin, that are able to control blood sugar.  The purpose of this literature review is to provide evidence-based information on the potential content of quercetin in Laportea. This literature review was created by searching databases such as: Pubmed, Elsevier, Science Direct, and Google Scholar. Searches on Elsevier and google Scholar were conducted using the following keywords: "quercetin AND Laportea decumana", "quercetin AND Laportea aestuans", "quercetin AND Laportea bulbifera" "Flavanoid AND quercetin AND Laportea". "quercetin AND antidiabetic". Meanwhile, the keywords to search for articles on pubmed are done by writing quercetin AND Laportea [MeSH]", "Flavanoid AND quercetin AND Laportea [MeSH]". "quercetin AND antidiabetic [MeSH]". The search was conducted on articles published in 2010-2025. The search was conducted on articles published in 2015-2025. Articles are selected and reviewed according to the theme and research questions by all researchers. Quercetin provides superior hypoglycemic effects and insulin sensitization activity by promoting pancreatic cell-β proliferation and by increasing glucose metabolism and insulin secretion. previous studied reported that the administration of 20 mmol· L-1 QE to pancreatic β cells INS-1 increases insulin secretion induced by glucose and gliclazide and protects β cells against oxidative damage. The results of this review literature have explained that the benefits of the laportea plant to overcome diabetes are the content  of Quercetin which can provide a superior hypoglycemic effect.

Abstract

Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery is often performed with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to maintain systemic perfusion during the procedure. While improving procedural safety, CPB can trigger a systemic inflammatory response and hemodynamic fluctuations that can potentially delay early recovery. Early mobilization is a crucial component of the postoperative recovery approach because it can prevent deconditioning, improve activity tolerance, and support cardiorespiratory stability. However, evidence regarding the form of early mobilization protocols and their impact on cardiovascular function recovery in post-CABG patients with CPB is scattered and heterogeneous. To synthesize scientific evidence regarding early mobilization in post-CABG patients with CPB. A systematic literature review was conducted following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. A literature search was conducted in PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, and CINAHL databases for articles in English or Indonesian published between 2010 and 2025. A total of 518 articles were identified. After removal of duplicates, title and abstract screening, followed by full-text review, were performed. Eight studies with randomized controlled trial or quasi-experimental designs met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed using a narrative synthesis approach. The synthesis of these findings suggests that progressive early mobilization, including position changes, range-of-motion exercises, sitting, standing, and early ambulation, tends to provide better outcomes than conventional care or less structured mobilization. The most consistent positive impact is seen in increased functional capacity, particularly walking parameters such as the six-minute walk test prior to discharge. Several studies also report improved oxygenation and reduced pulmonary complications, decreased pain intensity, and some protocols, starting very early after extubation, are associated with shorter ICU and hospital stays. In addition to protocol factors, patient characteristics such as smoking status and self-efficacy-based educational support also influence recovery outcomes. Evidence from eight studies suggests that early mobilization after CABG with CPB is generally associated with better recovery outcomes, particularly in functional capacity, oxygenation, pulmonary complications, pain, and length of stay in some studies. These findings underscore the importance of implementing structured, progressive, and safety-based early mobilization, tailored to the patient's clinical condition, to optimize postoperative recovery.

Abstract

Nurse performance is a key indicator of healthcare quality in hospitals because it directly relates to patient safety, nursing care effectiveness, and organizational performance. Therefore, a comprehensive synthesis of scientific evidence is needed to understand the determinants of nurse performance in hospital settings. To identify and synthesize scientific evidence related to factors that influence nurse performance in hospitals. This systematic review was prepared following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 guidelines. A literature search was conducted in PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, and CINAHL databases for English-language articles published between 2021 and 2025. A total of 378 articles were identified initially. After removing duplicates and screening titles, abstracts, and full texts based on the PICOS criteria, seven cross-sectional studies met all inclusion criteria. Data were systematically extracted and analyzed using a narrative synthesis approach. The synthesis identified three main categories of factors influencing nurse performance. First, psychological factors and personal capacities, such as self-efficacy, grit, work engagement, and secondary traumatic stress, showed a significant relationship with nurse performance. Second, organizational and practice environment factors, including a supportive work environment, social support, leadership, workload, and reward systems, played a significant role in enhancing or degrading performance. Third, demographic characteristics and physical conditions, such as length of service, education level, health status, and overtime work habits, also influenced nurses' work effectiveness in hospitals. Nurse performance in hospitals is the result of a complex interaction between individual, psychological, and organizational factors. These findings underscore the importance of a holistic approach to nursing management, focusing not only on nurses' clinical competence but also on creating a supportive work environment and organizational policies that are responsive to the needs of the nursing workforce.

Abstract

Menstrual cramps are pain that occurs during a woman's period, typically felt in the lower abdomen during the menstrual cycle. Effective non-pharmacological management includes administering turmeric and tamarind to reduce menstrual pain. Turmeric and tamarind contain curcumin and anthocyanins, which inhibit cyclooxygenase, thereby reducing inflammation and inhibiting uterine contractions. Interviews revealed that the menstrual pain was very bothersome. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of giving turmeric and tamarind herbal medicine on reducing the intensity of menstrual pain in nursing students at STIKES Advaita Medika Tabanan. The study employed a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental, one-group pretest-posttest design. Respondents were selected through purposive sampling of 16 people using a Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) pain assessment observation questionnaire. The Wilcoxon Signed Rank test was used for analysis. The decrease in menstrual pain scale after the intervention was given in the no pain category for 2 respondents (12.5%), mild pain for 11 respondents (68.8%), and moderate pain for 3 respondents (18.8%). The Wilcoxon Signed Rank test results showed a p-value of 0.001 (<0.05) and a Z-value of -3.286. The conclusion of this study is that there is an effect of giving turmeric and tamarind herbal medicine on reducing the intensity of menstrual pain in nursing students at STIKES Advaita Medika Tabanan.
