Clinical audit of medical records based on clinical pathway: case study Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)
type: item
description: Background: Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition in adult men with a prevalence exceeding 50% by the age of ≥ 60 years. BPH causes symptoms of lower urinary tract infection, which reduces the quality of life and increases the burden of health services through visits, examinations, and medical interventions. BPH service practices still vary between health services, and medical records are still inconsistent and often deviate from clinical guidelines Objective: To examine the implementation of the BPH clinical pathway (CP) through clinical audit and explore its inhibiting factors. Methods: Qualitative research with a case study design in one regional referral service center. Data were collected through three triangulation sources: (1) observation of medical audits of 63 BPH patients' medical records, (2) in-depth interviews with 12 health workers (doctors and nurses), and (3) policy documents related to CP. Thematic analysis was carried out iteratively to identify patterns of CP non-conformity and implementation barriers. Results: Thirty-five percent of medical records did not meet CP criteria. Key obstacles included low awareness of the CP among healthcare workers, limited clinical time, and lack of integration of health information systems. Conclusion: The implementation of the BPH clinical pathway remains hindered by clinical and systemic factors. Evidence-based CP provides strategic solutions to improve service consistency and quality, but supporting policies, ongoing training, and integration of information systems are needed to optimize its application.

Effectiveness of breadfruit leaf extract in mouthwash formula to inhibit the bacteria of Streptococcus mutans that causes caries
type: item
description: Background: Dental caries is caused by Streptococcus mutans, which forms biofilms and produces acid that damages tooth enamel. Prevention is often achieved through mouthwashes containing antibacterial agents, but commercial products may have side effects due to chemical ingredients. Artocarpus altilis (breadfruit) leaves contain bioactive compounds like flavonoids and tannins, which have potential as natural antibacterial agents. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the antibacterial activity of Artocarpus altilis leaf extract and formulate an effective mouthwash against Streptococcus mutans. Methods: The study used a true experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group. The extract was obtained by maceration with 96% ethanol. Three mouthwash formulations were prepared with varying glycerin concentrations (15%, 20%, and 25%). Antibacterial activity was assessed using the paper disk method, and data were analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests. Results: The 2-4% extract had strong antibacterial activity, with inhibition zones ranging from 20.25–23.81 mm, significantly different from the negative control (p<0.05). The mouthwash formulations were liquid, yellow-green in color, with a characteristic breadfruit and mint scent, pH ranging from 5.5 to 7.9, and viscosity of 1 cPs. The mouthwash exhibited strong antibacterial activity, with inhibition zones between 18.81±1.5 mm and 18.94±0.5 mm, showing no significant differences across formulas (p>0.05). Conclusion: The 2% Artocarpus altilis extract and 15% glycerin formula was stable and effectively inhibited Streptococcus mutans

Dynamic capabilities, knowledge management, and lecturer performance as determinants of health workers' readiness in health services
type: item
description: Background: Higher education institutions play a strategic role in preparing competent healthcare professionals and ensuring the quality of health services in the community. In the era of rapid health system transformation and technological advancement, health polytechnics are required to strengthen organizational performance through effective knowledge management, lecturer competence, and motivation to support adaptive institutional capabilities. Objective: This study examined the effects of knowledge management, lecturer motivation, and lecturer competence on the institutional performance of Health Polytechnics. Methods: Using an explanatory quantitative design, data were collected from 380 lecturers at 38 institutions through stratified sampling and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Results: The results indicate that all independent variables significantly influence institutional performance. Organizational dynamic capabilities and lecturer performance are proven to act as significant mediators, both in parallel and serial relationships. A crucial finding indicates that the serial mediation pathway of knowledge management through dynamic capabilities and lecturer performance has the strongest influence. This confirms that the transformation of knowledge into organizational adaptive capabilities significantly determines institutional effectiveness. Conclusions: This research indicates that strengthening lecturer capacity is essential for producing graduates who are adaptive to digital transformation and modern healthcare systems. Practically, this study provides strategic guidance for human resource development in higher health education to improve public health services sustainably.

The impact of postpartum depression symptom on breastfeeding outcomes: a literature review
type: item
description: Background: Postpartum depression is among the most prevalent mental health conditions during the postpartum period. Postpartum depression is regarded as detrimental to breastfeeding. Depressed mothers may experience a diminished interest and attraction towards their infants. Ultimately, the mother is incapable of adequately caring for her infant, including the inability to breastfeed directly. Objective: Consequently, we performed a literature analysis to rigorously assess the evidence regarding the correlation between postpartum depressive symptoms and breastfeeding habits. Methods: A literature review utilized the PubMed, Scopus, and Science Direct databases, referencing selected publications published between 2019 and 2024. A total of 9,146 articles were obtained from the specified databases and subsequently analyzed using the PRISMA. Results: The review of 22 selected articles revealed a strong correlation between postpartum depression symptoms and decreased breastfeeding success. Depressed mothers tend to have lower breastfeeding initiation rates. In addition, other factors influence breastfeeding success, such as the benefits of breastfeeding, societal and ecological assistance, malnutrition, insomnia, social and demographic characteristics, psychological factors, and patterns of breastfeeding. Conclusion: Postpartum depression symptoms correlate with breastfeeding success. Health practitioners should implement mental health evaluation in breastfeeding programs to identify maternal risk, which can be treated early. This enhances the rates of successful breastfeeding practices and supports the mother's and child's health.

Influence of family and child demographic characteristics on the incidence of stunting
type: item
description: Background: Stunting cases in Surakarta ranked fourth lowest in Central Java. However, the stunting target in Surakarta is zero. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the influence of maternal and child demographic factors on the incidence of stunting at the Gilingan Surakarta Community Health Center. Methods: This research method used analytical observations with a case-control research design. The research subjects were obtained using a simple random sampling method consisting of 38 stunted toddlers and 38 non-stunted toddlers aged 24-59 months at Gilingan Surakarta Community Health Center. Data collection was done by distributing questionnaires to respondents. The statistical test used for bivariate analysis is the chi-square, and multivariate analysis uses multiple logistic regression. Results: Bivariate analysis showed that maternal occupation (p=0.047) and family income (p=0.002) influenced the incidence of stunting. Multivariate analysis then found that maternal occupation and family income were associated with the incidence of stunting (p=0.005). Conclusion: The conclusion in this study was that mothers' occupation and family income significantly influence the incidence of stunting. Therefore, there is a need for assistance in the form of additional food for toddlers from underprivileged families to meet their nutritional needs so that stunting can be prevented.

The role of posyandu cadres in child growth monitoring for early detection of stunting
type: item
description: Background: Stunting remains a major public health challenge with long-term consequences for the quality of human resources in Indonesia. Stunting prevention requires early detection through routine child growth monitoring conducted at Integrated Health Service Posts (Posyandu). Objective: This study aimed to analyze the relationship between knowledge and motivation and the role of Posyandu cadres in child growth monitoring as an early detection strategy for stunting in the service area of Graha Indah Public Health Center, North Balikpapan. Methods: A descriptive analytical study with a cross-sectional design was conducted. A total of 79 active Posyandu cadres were purposively selected as the study sample. Data were collected using structured questionnaires that had been tested for validity and reliability and were analyzed using Spearman’s rank correlation test. Results: The results showed that Posyandu cadres generally had good levels of knowledge and motivation and performed their roles optimally. A strong and statistically significant relationship was found between motivation and the role of cadres (p=0,001), whereas knowledge was not significantly associated with cadre roles (p=0,650). Conclusion: These findings indicate that motivation is a key factor in optimizing the role of Posyandu cadres in child growth monitoring. This study recommends strengthening cadre motivation through continuous training, intensive supervision, and performance-based incentive systems to enhance the effectiveness of early stunting detection at the community level.

Effectiveness of the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) as an early screening tool for detecting depression and anxiety in postpartum women
type: item
description: Background: Depression and anxiety in postpartum women have a significant impact on the health of the mother, infant, and family. Early detection is essential to prevent long-term psychological complications. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate whether completing the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS), followed by a 20-minute brief education session delivered by midwives, could reduce EPDS scores among postpartum women within two weeks after the intervention. Methods: A quasi-experimental non-randomized controlled pre–post design was conducted at Pondok Bambu 1 Primary Health Center (intervention) and Pondok Gede District Hospital (control) using purposive sampling. A total of 52 postpartum women participated, with 26 assigned to the intervention group and 26 to the control group. The intervention consisted of EPDS screening followed by a brief education session on perinatal mental health, while the control group received routine care only. Results: Results showed that the mean EPDS score in the intervention group decreased from 13.23 ± 2.50 to 6.96 ± 2.18 (Δ = 6.27; 95% CI [−6.89; −5.65]; p < 0.001; d = 2.07), whereas the control group showed no significant change. The post-intervention Mann–Whitney test indicated a significant difference between groups (p = 0.021). Conclusion: These findings highlight that EPDS screening followed by brief education by healthcare providers is effective in reducing psychological distress in postpartum women. Integration of this program into postnatal care services is highly recommended to improve maternal and infant mental health outcomes.

Detection of the Murine Double Minute2 (MDM2) gen in formalin-fixed tissue samples using PCR
type: item
description: Background: Tissue preservation is a crucial procedure in pathological studies to maintain cellular and structural integrity, commonly performed through formalin fixation. However, formalin fixation may cause DNA degradation, posing challenges for molecular analysis. Detection of cancer biomarker genes, such as Murine Double Minute 2 (MDM2), can be performed using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), a technique for amplifying specific DNA fragments. Objective: This study aimed to determine the presence of the MDM2 gene in formalin-preserved tissues stored for different periods using PCR. Methods: A descriptive qualitative design with random sampling was employed. The study was conducted at the Anatomical Pathology and Molecular Biology Laboratories of Sekolah Tinggi Ilmu Kesehatan Nasional. Samples included 10 hair and nail tissues as controls, and formalin-fixed tissues stored for 2 days, 1 month, 2 months, and 8 years. DNA isolation was performed using the Geneaid gSYNC™ DNA Extraction Kit. DNA quality was assessed by 1.5% agarose gel electrophoresis, while concentration and purity were measured using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. DNA concentrations ranged from 320–420 ng/µL, with purity ratios between 0.8 and 1.125. Results: The results showed that the MDM2 gene (178 bp amplicon) was detectable in tissues stored for up to 2 months but was not detected in tissues stored for 8 years. Conclusion: These findings indicate that storage duration affects the success of gene detection in formalin-fixed tissues.

Effectiveness of front-of-pack nutrition labels on consumer behavior: implications for food labelling policy in Indonesia
type: item
description: Background: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as obesity, diabetes, and hypertension have become significant global health challenges. One of the main factors contributing to this problem is the high consumption of packaged foods and beverages with excessive sugar, fat, and sodium content. Nutrition information labels have been identified as an effective strategy to raise awareness and encourage healthier consumption behavior change. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of various nutrition information labeling systems, including Front-of-Pack Labeling (FOPL) such as Nutri-Score, Nutri-Grade, Health Star Rating, and warning-based labels, in improving consumer awareness, understanding, and consumption behavior. Methods: A scoping review was conducted using thirteen journals selected based on PRISMA guidelines, focusing on awareness, understanding, and changes in consumption behavior. Results: Intuitive visual labels increased consumer awareness by 75% and reduced sugar consumption by 1.51 grams per serving. Warning-based labels reduced purchases of unhealthy products by 17%. Conclusions: Effective nutrition labeling should adopt clear visual formats and be supported by public education. Further policy recommendations include integrating labeling with education campaigns and additional regulations, such as sugar taxes, to strengthen the long-term impact on healthier consumption patterns.

Age and employment status as dominant factors in medication adherence among hypertensive patients
type: item
description: Background: Hypertension is a common chronic condition that requires consistent medication adherence to prevent complications. Despite various control programs, adherence remains influenced by sociodemographic factors. Objective: This study aimed to examine the association between sociodemographic characteristics, national health insurance enrollment (JKN), smoking habits, and medication adherence among hypertensive patients. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Mengwi Public Health Center, Badung Regency, Bali Province. The study population included 611 adult hypertensive patients, and 239 respondents were selected using random sampling. The dependent variable was medication adherence, while the independent variables were age, gender, marital status, education, employment status, household position, JKN membership, and smoking habits. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test to assess associations. Results: The results showed that among 239 participants, 82.8% adhered to their medication. Age was significantly associated with adherence (p = 0.008), and regression analysis (p = 0.901; OR = 1.001; 95% CI: 0.980–1.023) indicated a small effect but a pattern where older and middle-aged patients were more compliant than younger adults. Employment status was also significantly related to adherence (p = 0.039), with regression results (p = 0.039; OR = 3.125; 95% CI: 1.061–9.206), showing a positive association. Other variables, including gender, marital status, education, household position, JKN membership, and smoking habits, were not significantly associated. Conclusion: Age and employment status significantly influenced medication adherence among hypertensive patients. These findings emphasize the importance of age- and occupation-based interventions, such as adherence education for younger patients and time management strategies for employed individuals.

Development of an iron diagnostic method using Malaka fruit based on digital imaging
type: item
description: Background: Iron (Fe) is a geochemically active element that needs to be monitored because excessive levels in water can reduce water quality and pose health risks. WHO sets a safe limit of Fe in drinking water at 0.3 mg/L. This condition demands an accurate, simple, and applicable Fe detection method without complex instruments. Objective: This study developed a digital imaging-based Fe(III) detection method using a natural reagent, malacca fruit extract, which is rich in gallic acid and forms a blue Fe-gallic acid complex. Methods: The study design included laboratory experiments involving gallic acid extraction, optimization of the Fe(III): extract ratio, optimization of measurement time, and evaluation of linearity, precision, accuracy, LoD, LoQ, and t-test against the UV-Vis spectrophotometry method. Results: The results showed an optimum Fe(III): extract ratio of 1:2, with reaction stability up to the 5th minute. A linear relationship was obtained in the range of 0.1–2 ppm (R² = 0.9969), with an LoD of 0.1377 ppm and a LoQ of 0.4589 ppm. The %RSD values ​​of 2.34–3.82% indicate good precision, while the accuracy ranges from 92.76–111.2%. A t-test confirmed that the digital imaging results were not significantly different from those of UV-Vis spectrophotometry. Conclusion: Overall, this method offers a portable, economical, and environmentally friendly analytical approach for Fe(III) detection and provides a basis for the development of digital application-based diagnostic systems using natural reagents.

The role of serum ferritin as a biomarker of iron and inflammation in anemia: a systematic literature review
type: item
description: Background: Anemia remains a major global health concern, particularly in low- and middle-income countries where distinguishing Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) from Anemia of Inflamation (AI) remains diagnostically challenging. Hemoglobin alone cannot differentiate these conditions, necessitating more specific biomarkers. Serum ferritin, the primary iron-storage protein, reflects body iron reserves but is also elevated during inflammation through interleukin-6-mediated hepcidin induction. Objective: This review examines the dual role of ferritin as an iron biomarker and an inflammatory marker. Methods: A literature search was conducted in PubMed, ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, and the Cochrane Library with a ten-year publication limit. Of the 89 articles identified, only eight studies met the inclusion criteria and directly evaluated the relationship between ferritin, iron status, and inflammatory processes. Results: Ferritin remains a key indicator of iron reserves, but its interpretation needs to take into account the inflammatory status. Conclusion: The combination of ferritin with inflammatory biomarkers such as C-Reactive Protein (CRP)and Alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) improves the diagnostic accuracy for anemia related to both iron deficiency and inflammation.

The effect of systemic chemotherapy on hematological profiles in lung cancer patients
type: item
description: Background: Cancer is a disease characterized by uncontrolled cell growth in one or both lungs originating from epithelial cells. In Indonesia, lung cancer ranks fourth among all cancer types and is the second leading cause of death after cardiovascular diseases. Management of lung cancer involves various therapeutic modalities, including surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and combination therapy. Certain chemotherapeutic agents, such as cisplatin and carboplatin, are known to have a narrow therapeutic index and high toxicity, so inappropriate regimen selection or dosing may result in serious adverse effects or even death. All chemotherapy agents carry the potential for toxicity, including both hematological and non-hematological effects, with hematological toxicities commonly manifesting as anemia, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia of varying severity. Objective: This study aimed to determine the hematologic profile in patients after chemotherapy. Methods: This study was a descriptive research with a cross-sectional design using a total sampling technique. During the August-December 2023 period, 36 lung cancer patients met the inclusion criteria at Arifin Achmad Hospital, namely lung cancer patients with adenocarcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma who underwent advanced chemotherapy with a cycle of 21 days in the August-December 2023 period. Results: Of the 36 patients, 29 (80.56%) were male. The highest age of patients undergoing chemotherapy was ≥ 40 years (94.44%). Changes in the hematological profile after chemotherapy occurred in 14 patients (38.89%), with the most common hematological profile being anemia. Conclusion: The use of chemotherapy regimens can cause changes in the hematologic profile, including anemia, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia.

Ergonomic working positions with musculoskeletal disorders and work fatigue in lifting workers at a furniture company
type: item
description: Background: Furniture workers who lift and carry heavy loads face various ergonomic risks that impact their work performance and health. Field observations indicate that manual material handling is carried out conventionally with heavy and large loads without the use of assistive devices. This results in workers working in non-ergonomic positions. In addition, the high frequency of repetitive movements and the lack of education on correct lifting techniques increase the risk of fatigue and musculoskeletal disorders. Objective: This study aims to analyze the differences in work fatigue and musculoskeletal disorders in the ergonomic work positions of furniture workers. Methods: The study subjects were 60 male workers. Work fatigue was measured using a reaction time meter with millimeter (mm) units and a questionnaire. This study used an experimental design with a randomized controlled trial method. Data collection on musculoskeletal disorders used the Nordic Body Map (NBM) questionnaire. Results: Comparison of pre-employment and post-employment scores in the treatment group showed that the average value decreased from 719.63 mm before work to 235.07 mm after work. The average musculoskeletal disorders in the control group increased before and after work from 30.30 to 33.30 (p=0.001). These results indicate that ergonomic work position interventions can reduce fatigue and musculoskeletal disorders in lifters. Conclusion: Therefore, companies need to implement comprehensive work ergonomic standards including manual handling technique training for all workers, provision of lifting aids such as trolleys or hand trucks, and worker health monitoring as a preventive measure against work fatigue and musculoskeletal disorders.

The antifungal potential of rice straw (Oryza sativa) extract against the growth of pathogenic fungi
type: item
description: Background: Opportunistic fungal infections such as Candida albicans and Aspergillus fumigatus are increasing, particularly among immunocompromised patients. The use of synthetic antifungal agents is often limited by side effects, resistance, and high costs, thus alternatives from natural sources are needed. Rice straw (Oryza sativa L.), an agricultural by-product rich in bioactive compounds, has been reported to possess antibacterial activity; however, its potential as an antifungal agent has not been extensively investigated. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the antifungal potential of rice straw (Oryza sativa L.) extract against the growth of two pathogenic fungi, Candida albicans and Aspergillus fumigatus. Methods: The research was conducted experimentally in a laboratory with a quantitative approach. Extraction of rice straw was carried out using maceration with 96% ethanol, followed by fractionation with n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and n-butanol solvents based on polarity differences. Antifungal activity was tested using the well diffusion method, with inhibition zone measurements as an indicator of effectiveness. Results: The results showed that ethyl acetate and n-butanol fractions exhibited significant antifungal activity against Candida albicans and Aspergillus fumigatus, as evidenced by the largest inhibition zones at a concentration of 7%. The ethyl acetate fraction demonstrated an average inhibition zone of 18.25 mm against Candida albicans and 12.83 mm against Aspergillus fumigatus. Conversely, the n-hexane fraction did not show antifungal activity. Statistical analysis using one-way ANOVA revealed significant differences among concentrations and fraction types. Conclusion: This study concludes that rice straw extract, particularly the ethyl acetate fraction, possesses potential as a natural antifungal agent effective against pathogenic fungi, and may be further developed for traditional plant-based therapy.

type: item
description: Background: Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease that has an impact not only on the physical but also psychosocial aspects of its survivors. Even though they have been declared medically cured, people affected by leprosy still face stigma and discrimination that hinder social reintegration. This is reflected in the high number of leprosy cases in Indramayu Regency, which reached 3,777 cases in. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the psychological effects experienced by People Affected by Leprosy (PAL) and its relationship with the social reintegration process in Indramayu Regency. Methods: The research used a quantitative design with a descriptive-analytical survey approach. The sample was determined through purposive sampling technique with a total of 208 PAL respondents who had been declared medically cured and had post-treatment social interaction experience. Data collection was carried out using online and offline questionnaires with the assistance of field cadres and health workers. Data analysis includes descriptive statistics, Chi-Square tests, and Spearman correlation. Results: The results showed that the majority of respondents experienced significant psychological impacts, including shame (90.9%), low self-esteem (95.4%), loss of zest for life (77.3%), fear of social rejection (68.2%), and experiences of discrimination (72.8%). Bivariate analysis showed that shyness, low self-esteem, fear of rejection, and experiences of discrimination were significantly associated with social reintegration (p<0.05), while family support and community acceptance were positively associated with the reintegration process. Conclusion: This research confirms that PAL social reintegration requires community-based multidimensional interventions, strengthening family support, and sustainable public education to reduce stigma and discrimination.

type: item
description: Background: The use of partographs in obstetric care is an important topic, especially in low- and middle-income countries, including Indonesia, which face high maternal and neonatal mortality rates. Objective: This study aimed to explore and analyze factors influencing midwives' use of the partograph for early detection of labor complications. Methods: This study employed a non-experimental quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design to analyze factors influencing partograph use by midwives. The study population was 135 midwives in Hulu Sungai Utara Regency, with a sample of 101 midwives determined using a simple random sampling technique. The dependent variable was partograph utilization, while the independent variables included midwives' knowledge, attitudes, motivation, perception of supervision, training, length of service, age, and education level. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire and observation sheet. Data analysis used the chi-square test and multiple logistic regression to identify relationships between variables influencing partograph utilization. Results: The education was significantly associated with partograph utilization (p=0.001; OR 6.0), with midwives with higher education being more likely to use it. Conversely, length of service ≥5 years was associated with decreased partograph utilization (p=0.000; OR 0.05). In addition, motivation (p=0.002; OR 1.6) and supervision (p=0.032; OR 1.7) also positively influenced partograph use. The logistic regression model showed that higher education increased the probability of partograph use (Exp(B)=11.172), while longer work experience decreased the probability (Exp(B)=0.028). Conclusion: Higher education significantly increased partograph use, while work experience above 5 years decreased its use. Motivation and supervision also positively contributed to optimal partograph use.

The effects of heat treatment files and taper lock depth on the torsional fatigue resistance of rotary NiTi instruments
type: item
description: Background: A file fracture is a significant complication in endodontic treatment, particularly when it obstructs access to the apical root canal. The primary cause is torsional fatigue, occurring when applied force exceeds the elastic limit of NiTi alloys. Heat-treated rotary files have been developed to improve torsional resistance. Objective: To compare the time to fracture due to torsional fatigue between gold and blue heat-treated rotary files under taper lock conditions. Methods: A total of 48 heat-treated rotary files (#25.04) were embedded in bulk-fill composite resin blocks to simulate taper lock. Samples were randomly divided into eight groups (n=6): E-Flex Gold (3 mm, 5 mm), EndoArt Smart Gold (3 mm, 5 mm), E-Flex Blue (3 mm, 5 mm), and EndoArt Smart Blue (3 mm, 5 mm). Torsional fatigue time was recorded from the start of rotation using an endomotor until fracture occurred. Results: One-way ANOVA revealed a statistically significant difference in torsional fatigue time among groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: Blue heat-treated rotary files showed longer fracture times and may be safer in high taper lock conditions, although results are limited by the in vitro resin model.

Validity and reliability test of an Electric Knee Height Measuring Device (EKHMD) predicting body height and nutritional status
type: item
description: Background: Direct height measurement is often difficult in immobilized patients. Knee height measurement becomes an alternative, thus encouraging the development of an electronic knee height measuring device (EKHMD). Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the validity and reliability of the EKHMD in estimating knee height, height, and nutritional status. Methods: This study used a quantitative approach with 30 healthy adults (15 men, 15 women) through purposive sampling. Anthropometric measurements used the EKHMD and a microtoise as standards. Validity was assessed using Pearson or Spearman correlation tests, agreement or accuracy using Bland–Altman plot analysis, and reliability using Cronbach-Alpha. Results: The results of the validity test showed that knee height measurements (r = 0.929), estimated height (r = 0.863 (sitting), r = 0.869 (lying down), and nutritional status (r = 0.952 (sitting), r = 0.970 (lying down) with significance for all variables (p = 0.00) which means that EKHMD correlated strongly with microtoise measurements (p < 0.05). Accuracy analysis using Bland–Altman measurements was in the range of Upper LoA and Lower LoA knee height (2.13 – (-1.43 cm)), estimated height (7.89 – (-9.05) cm (sitting) 0.049 (-0.029) cm (lying down)), and nutritional status (2.35 – (-2.01) (sitting), 0.06 – (-0.023) (lying down)) and Cronbach’s Alpha showed high reliability (p > 0.60), knee height (p=0.61), estimated height ((p=0.936 (Sitting), p=0.928 (Lying)), and nutritional status (p=0.983 (Sitting), p=0.984 (Lying)). Conclusion: Thus, EKHMD can be considered as a tool to measure estimated height and nutritional status but still needs to be developed further.

Eco enzyme mixture of sludge sediment treatment reduces BOD, COD, TSS, and detergent content in greywater
type: item
description: Background: Household activities generate greywater containing pollutants such as BOD, COD, TSS, and detergents, contributing to environmental pollution. Eco enzyme offers a biological alternative to degrade organic waste. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the eco enzyme combined with sludge sediment in reducing greywater pollutants. Methods: A true experimental study with a pretest–posttest control group design was conducted using four greywater reactors. Eco enzyme doses of 10 ml, 30 ml, and 50 ml per 1000 ml of wastewater were tested, along with a control. The eco enzyme was mixed with 1.5 liters of sludge sediment. The detention time was three days. Sampling was performed once per treatment using purposive sampling. Parameters analyzed included BOD, COD, TSS, and detergents based on SNI standards. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA. Results: The treatment showed no significant effect on BOD reduction (p=0.48), but significantly reduced COD (p=0.01) and TSS (p=0.0001). Detergent reduction was moderate, with the 50 ml dose being the most effective, although not statistically significant (p=0.07). Conclusion: Eco enzyme combined with sludge sediment has potential as a simple biological treatment to reduce COD, TSS, and detergents in greywater. However, additional processes such as aeration are needed to effectively reduce BOD. This research can be the basis for the development of advanced research that can apply eco enzymes to waste, with a longer time and more varied dosage use.

Lifestyle and environmental stress as determinants of hypertension development in rural Indonesia: a multinomial logistic regression analysis
type: item
description: Background: Global evidence indicates that lifestyle behaviors and environmental stress contribute to blood pressure regulation; however, studies examining their combined effects on hypertension severity, particularly in rural Indonesian populations, remain limited. Objective: This study addresses this gap by applying multinomial logistic regression to predict hypertension stages and examine interactions between lifestyle and environmental stress. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 373 adults with hypertension aged ≥45 years in three rural villages in Kuningan Regency, Indonesia, selected through purposive sampling. Lifestyle behaviors and environmental stress were assessed using validated questionnaires with acceptable internal consistency (Cronbach’s α> 0.70). Blood pressure was classified into Stage 1, Stage 2, and Stage 3 hypertension. Multinomial logistic regression analyses adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, and hypertension duration were performed to estimate main and interaction effects. Results: The model demonstrated strong predictive validity (χ²= 174.10; p< 0.001). A healthy lifestyle was significantly associated with higher odds of Stage 1 (OR= 30.04) and Stage 2 hypertension (OR= 11.45) compared with Stage 3. Mild to moderate environmental stress also showed a protective association with hypertension severity (p< 0.01). A significant lifestyle–stress interaction (p< 0.05) indicated that a healthy lifestyle attenuated the adverse effects of severe stress, maintaining a high predicted probability of milder hypertension (0.67). Conclusion: These findings provide empirical evidence from rural Indonesia that lifestyle behaviors and environmental stress function as independent and interactive predictors of hypertension severity, supporting adaptive and health promotion frameworks and community-based interventions aligned with Sustainable Development Goal 3.

Correlation between coping mechanisms and the burden experienced by caregivers of cancer patients
type: item
description: Background: Caregivers of breast cancer patients are at risk of experiencing a high caregiver burden due to prolonged physical, emotional, and social demands. Coping responses play an important role in determining how caregivers manage these challenges. Objective: The study aimed to analyze the relationship and caregiver burden in caring for breast cancer patients. Methods: This study employed a quantitative cross-sectional design involving 200 caregivers of breast cancer patients. Inclusion criteria were age ≥18 years, good health status, active involvement in caregiving, and the ability to read Indonesian. Data were collected from August to December 2024 using a demographic questionnaire, the Coping Orientation to Problems Experienced (COPE), and the Indonesian version of the Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI). Data were analyzed using the chi-square test. Most caregivers with maladaptive coping experienced a high caregiver burden (79.8%), while only 20.2% of caregivers with adaptive coping reported a high burden. Results: Statistical analysis showed a significant association between coping responses and caregiver burden (p = 0.001). Conclusion: Caregivers who used maladaptive coping strategies had a significantly higher likelihood of experiencing a high caregiver burden compared with those who used adaptive coping strategies. Coping responses are significantly associated with caregiver burden among caregivers of breast cancer patients. Strengthening adaptive coping strategies through caregiver-focused interventions is essential to reducing caregiver burden and supporting optimal patient care.

Association of medication adherence with clinical outcomes and quality of life in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients: a cross-sectional study
type: item
description: Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood glucose levels. Patient adherence to medication is a critical factor in effective management, as it can reduce morbidity and mortality while improving health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Digital interventions, such as smartphone-based medication reminder applications, represent a promising strategy to enhance adherence. Objective: This study aimed to examine the relationship between medication adherence and clinical outcomes, specifically fasting blood glucose levels and HRQoL, among patients with type 2 diabetes in primary health care settings. Methods: A cross-sectional pre–post test design was employed involving 96 respondents, divided equally into control and intervention groups, selected through convenience sampling. Primary data were collected using the MARS-10 adherence questionnaire and the DQOL Brief Clinical Inventory, while secondary data were obtained from pre– and post–fasting blood glucose measurements. Results: Results showed no significant relationship between medication adherence and fasting blood glucose levels (p > 0.05), nor between adherence and HRQoL (p > 0.05), even with the implementation of the Drug Reminder App intervention. Conclusion: These findings highlight the need for additional interventions or further innovations in digital adherence support to improve clinical and quality-of-life outcomes in type 2 diabetes management.

Analysis of the differences in the quality of briquettes made from durian peel and young coconut shells as an alternative energy source
type: item
description: Background: Durian peel and young coconut shells are abundant organic waste in Bengkulu City. Up to 80% of coastal waste consists of coconut shells, while durian peel waste can reach 1.5–2 tons/day during harvest season. Poor management contributes to environmental pollution. Converting this waste into biochar briquettes offers a sustainable solution. Objective: To compare the quality of briquettes from durian peel and young coconut shells based on moisture, ash, fixed carbon, volatile matter, and calorific value. Methods: A quasi-experimental (posttest-only) design was used. Briquettes were produced from durian peel and coconut shell charcoal with 5% tapioca binder (300 g per treatment). Results: Coconut shell briquettes showed better quality, with moisture 3.33%, ash 6.33%, fixed carbon 85.96%, volatile matter 4.38%, and calorific value 5922 cal/g. Durian peel briquettes had moisture 2.38%, ash 11.37%, fixed carbon 81.49%, volatile matter 4.77%, and calorific value 5398 cal/g. Coconut shell briquettes met SNI 1/6235/2000 standards, and all parameters differed significantly (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Coconut shell briquettes are more efficient as a solid fuel, while durian peel briquettes remain potential when combined with other biomass. This study supports the use of organic waste as a renewable energy source and contributes to sustainable environmental management in Indonesia.
