Abstract

Background: β-thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder characterized by reduced or no synthesis of β globin chain, resulting in chronic anemia, so blood transfusion is required as curative therapy. Repeated blood transfusions lead to iron overload that can lead to multiple organ damage, including pancreatic organs.Objective: This study aimed to describe HbA1c and insulin levels of β-thalassemia patients. The study also tested whether there was a significant difference in insulin and HbA1c levels among patients with different β-thalassemia categories. Method: This research was an analytic observational study. The samples were taken by total sampling and involved 30 patients, and the examination was carried out using the patient's blood plasma.Result: The study found that samples had low HbA1c levels. There was no significant mean difference (p>0.05) between insulin and HbA1c in the mild, moderate, and severe clinical degree groups. There was no significant difference in average (p>0.05) insulin and HbA1c in the thalassemia sufferers with allele β+ and β0 types.Conclusion: There was a decrease in insulin and HbA1c in patients with β-thalassemia, which may be caused by damage pancreatic organ damage.

Abstract

Background: Despite increased global attention to early childhood development, children under 5 in low- and middle-income countries face heightened risks of poor developmental outcomes. In Indonesia, where innovative approaches to nurturing care are needed, video-based interventions show promise.Purpose: This study aimed to elevate maternal competence in parenting and contribute to the holistic development of children aged 0-3 years through video-based nurturing care education.Method: Non-equivalent quasi-experimental design with pre-post-test control groups was employed. This study used a consecutive sampling technique on 89 mothers with children 0-3 years old (intervention group = 40 and control group = 49). The intervention group was given health education using videos via a WhatsApp link, and the control group was given leaflets directly. Data was collected from May to August 2022, four weeks before the intervention (pre-test) and two weeks after the video and leaflets were given (post-test). The instrument was modified from the Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice (KAP) questionnaire developed by UNICEF. The effect of education was analyzed using Wilcoxon and independent t-test.Results: The group that received the intervention showed a notable and positive influence on their knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP levels) in contrast to the control group. This suggests the video-based intervention effectively enhanced participants' understanding, attitudes, and caregiving practices.Conclusion: The research emphasizes the positive outcomes of video-based nurturing care intervention for mothers with children aged 0-3 years. The intervention significantly improved maternal attitudes toward parenting, caregiving behaviors, and overall child development. These results emphasize the significance of employing video interventions to encourage effective nurturing care practices.

Abstract

Background: A perineal tear affects around 85% of women who give birth vaginally. Previous animal research has demonstrated the beneficial effects of turmeric extract gel on wound healing, which speeds up the process of repairing wounded tissue. However, since this research is only in vivo, more studies and clinical trials are required to evaluate the efficacy of using turmeric extract gel to treat perineal lacerations.Purpose: To analyze the potential of turmeric extract gel (Curcuma Longa Linn.) in reducing REEDA score and IL-6 levels in postpartum women.Method: This is a quasi-experiment study with pretest–posttest with control group design. The study respondents comprised 20 people in the intervention group who were given turmeric extract gel and amoxicillin and 20 in the control group who were given amoxicillin for seven days. Measurement of wound healing using the REEDA score while IL-6 levels using ELISA. Data analysis of used Friedman and Wilcoxon tests.Results: There was a significant decrease in the intervention group's REEDA score and IL-6 levels (p<0.05). There was a significant difference in the average decrease in REEDA score and IL-6 levels between the two groups (p<0.05). The administration of turmeric extract gel led to faster wound healing for two days compared to the control group, which was only given standard treatment.Conclusion: Turmeric extract gel can reduce REEDA score and IL-6 levels.

Abstract

Background: The incidence of striae gravidarum in Indonesia is 95%, and 79.7% are primigravida. Striae gravidarum is not a direct physical health risk but is associated with body image and decreased self-confidence. Curcuma domestica contains curcumin and vitamin C, which can stimulate the synthesis of type IV collagen. In contrast, the Centella asiatica plant contains triterpenoids and saponins, which can stimulate the synthesis of type I collagen, which helps regenerate skin cells and improve skin elasticity. However, it is necessary to see the effectiveness of the two herbs, Centella asiatica and Curcuma domestica, in fading striae gravidarum. Purpose: To prove the effectiveness of topical gel formulation extract Centella asiatica and Curcuma domestica for fading of striae gravidarum.Methods: This is a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest control group design. The sample consisted of 32 primigravida pregnant women divided into two groups: the intervention group was given a combination of Curcuma domestica and Centella asiatica gel at a dose of 5 mg twice a day for 14 days, and the control group was given a mineral oil gel at a quantity of 5 mg twice a day for 14 days—measurement of striae gravidarum using Davey score. The statistical test used the Friedman and Wilcoxon test.Results: The average fading of striae gravidarum in the intervention group was more significant than in the control group, 11.44±4.131 to 4±3.033 vs.12.19±5.788 to 8.56±4.320 treatment on the 14th day. The analysis results showed that the topical gel formulation of Centella asiatica and Curcuma domestica was more effective in fading striae gravidarum than the placebo gel (p<0.001).Conclusion: Administering topical gel containing 12% Centella asiatica extract and a 10% Curcuma domestica dose of 5 mg twice a day for 14 days affected the fading of striae gravidarum.
