The Effect of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) on Emotion Regulation among Older Adults with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Bangun Rejo Village, 2025
type: item
description: Emotional regulation is an important aspect in maintaining the mental health of the elderly, especially those suffering from chronic diseases such as Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Chronic disease conditions often trigger psychological stress that impacts an individual's ability to manage emotions. One of the non-pharmacological interventions widely developed to overcome stress is Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). This study aims to determine the effect of MBSR on emotional regulation in elderly with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Bangun Rejo Village in 2025. This study used a quantitative design with a one-group pretest–posttest method. The study subjects were 30 elderly with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus selected using a total sampling technique. The MBSR intervention was given for eight sessions, and emotional regulation was measured using the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ) before and after the intervention. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics and the Paired Sample t-Test. The results showed a significant increase in emotional regulation scores, from an average of 34.67 before the intervention to 75.50 after the MBSR intervention. Statistical test results showed a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (p < 0.05). Thus, MBSR has been proven effective in improving emotional regulation in elderly people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. The MBSR program is recommended as a supporting intervention in elderly health services.

The Relationship Between The Use Of Lavender Aromatherapy And The Reduction Of Anxiety Levels In MRI Patients At The Radiology Installation Of RSI Siti Rahmah Padang
type: item
description: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a radiological imaging modality that does not use ionizing radiation, but it often causes anxiety. This anxiety is triggered by the relatively long examination duration, ranging from 30 to 45 minutes, and is triggered by the examination environment, which is shaped like a tunnel, which can trigger claustrophobia. One method that can be used to reduce anxiety is through complementary therapies, such as lavender aromatherapy, which is known to have a relaxing effect. This study aims to determine the effect of lavender aromatherapy on reducing anxiety levels in patients undergoing MRI examinations at the Radiology Installation of RSI Siti Rahmah Padang. The study design used was a quasi-experimental study with a pre-test and post-test with a control group design. The number of research samples was 54 people who were divided into two groups, namely the control group and the intervention group. The intervention group was given lavender aromatherapy before undergoing MRI examination, while the control group was not given any treatment. Anxiety levels were measured using the Magnetic Resonance Imaging-Anxiety Questionnaire (MRI-AQ) before and after the intervention of using Lavender aromatherapy. The results showed a significant decrease in patient anxiety levels in the intervention group after being given lavender aromatherapy (p-value = 0.001). Meanwhile, the control group did not show a significant change in anxiety levels (p-value > 0.05). Lavender aromatherapy is effective in reducing anxiety levels in patients undergoing MRI examinations. This study suggests that lavender aromatherapy can be considered as a complementary method to reduce patient anxiety in the MRI room, thereby improving the comfort and quality of radiology services in hospitals.

Implementation of Local Wisdom Values as a Managerial Approach in Strengthening Public Health Programs
type: item
description: Strengthening community health programs requires managerial approaches that are not only technically effective but also culturally and socially contextualized. This study aims to analyze the implementation of local wisdom values as a managerial approach in strengthening community health programs and its implications for health behavior, social participation, and program sustainability. The study employs a qualitative approach with a multiple case study design through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis involving health stakeholders and local communities. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify patterns of implementation, challenges, and impacts of integrating local wisdom. The findings reveal that local wisdom enhances policy legitimacy, strengthens community trust, promotes sustainable healthy behaviors, and increases community participation and program sustainability. However, its implementation continues to face institutional constraints, limited managerial capacity, and policy misalignment. This study underscores that integrating local wisdom constitutes a strategic foundation for building adaptive, equitable, and sustainable community health systems.

The Role of Health Cadres in Promoting Child Vaccination in Areas with Low Education Levels
type: item
description: Background: Disparities in basic childhood immunization coverage remain evident in communities with low education levels, often associated with limited health literacy, vaccine hesitancy, and barriers to accessing health services. In this context, the role of health cadres is considered crucial in supporting childhood vaccination uptake at the community level. Method: This study employed a quantitative cross-sectional design involving 210 mothers with children aged 12–24 months. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed through binary logistic regression to examine the influence of health cadres’ roles on the completeness of basic childhood vaccination. Results: The findings indicate that health cadres’ roles significantly influenced complete basic vaccination (OR = 3.08; p = 0.001) after controlling for maternal education and socioeconomic status. Schedule reminders and interpersonal communication emerged as the strongest dimensions of the cadres’ role, while assistance during vaccination visits showed the weakest contribution due to logistical constraints. Conclusion: The results demonstrate that achieving complete childhood vaccination depends not only on formal health system mechanisms but also on strengthening the role of health cadres as social and educational agents within the community. Enhancing persuasive communication skills, improving logistical support, and integrating cadres into community-based follow-up systems are essential to ensure sustainable improvements in basic childhood vaccination coverage.

Digital Health in Kidney Care: The Role of Telemonitoring in Enhancing Self-Management Among Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease
type: item
description: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) requires long-term, continuous self-management to prevent disease progression and reduce complications. However, maintaining patient adherence and engagement in daily self-care remains a major challenge. The rapid development of digital health, particularly telemonitoring, offers new opportunities to strengthen self-management by enabling continuous home-based monitoring, real-time feedback, and enhanced patient–provider communication. This study aims to analyze the role of telemonitoring in improving self-management among patients with CKD and to identify the system design and adherence-related factors that determine successful implementation. A systematic literature review was conducted following the PRISMA framework, using articles published between 2020 and 2025 retrieved from Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. The findings indicate that telemonitoring significantly improves key dimensions of self-management, including self-efficacy, treatment adherence, symptom awareness, patient engagement, and satisfaction with care. Clinical benefits include improved blood pressure control and enhanced early detection of complications. Nevertheless, long-term adherence remains a critical barrier, strongly influenced by system usability, monitoring burden, digital literacy, and integration within clinical workflows. In conclusion, telemonitoring represents a powerful instrument for strengthening CKD self-management, but its real-world effectiveness depends on human-centered system design, continuous professional support, and tailored strategies to sustain patient adherence over time.

Evidence-Based Perceptions of the 10,000-Step Target and Physical Activity Intentions: A Cross-Sectional Survey Using PLS-SEM
type: item
description: Low levels of physical activity have encouraged the widespread use of numerical targets, such as 10,000 steps per day, as public health promotion tools. Despite their popularity, the effectiveness of step-based targets depends not only on campaign exposure but also on how individuals perceive the scientific evidence underlying these recommendations. This study examines the effect of evidence-based perception of the 10,000-step target on physical activity intention using a Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM–PLS) approach. A quantitative explanatory cross-sectional survey design was employed, with data collected at a single point in time through a questionnaire from 220 adults exposed to step-based physical activity programs or information. Evidence-based perception was modeled as a latent construct reflecting scientific understanding, perceived validity, and rationality of the step target, while physical activity intention was measured through indicators of readiness and behavioral commitment. The results indicate that evidence-based perception has a positive and significant effect on physical activity intention, with a strong path coefficient and a moderate R-square value. These findings suggest that evidence-based understanding plays a critical role in shaping physical activity intention, beyond the normative function of step targets. The study concludes that step-based physical activity promotion will be more effective when accompanied by evidence-based communication that fosters rational and informed acceptance of health recommendations.

Risk of Leptospirosis in Flood Affected Areas and Environmental Health Control Measures
type: item
description: Flooding is an environmental disaster that consistently increases the risk of environment-related diseases, including leptospirosis. As a zoonotic disease, leptospirosis frequently emerges in post-flood settings due to sanitation damage, water stagnation, and increased human exposure to environments contaminated with Leptospira. However, existing studies on leptospirosis are predominantly clinical and epidemiological, while analyses positioning the disease as a structural environmental health issue in post-disaster contexts remain limited. This study aims to analyze leptospirosis risk in flood-affected areas and to examine relevant and sustainable environmental health control strategies based on scientific evidence. A qualitative descriptive-analytical method was employed using an Evidence-Based Environmental Health Review approach, synthesizing scientific literature, institutional reports, and policy documents related to leptospirosis, flooding, and environmental health. The findings indicate that flooding acts as a primary ecological determinant shaping leptospirosis risk through sanitation disruption, water quality degradation, increased reservoir populations, and interactions with social vulnerability. Environmental health–based control strategies—such as sanitation improvement, environmental management, ecological reservoir control, community education, and early warning systems—are shown to be more effective than reactive medical responses. This study reinforces the repositioning of leptospirosis as a structural environmental health issue to support sustainable post-disaster prevention strategies.

Outcome of Patients with OA Grade III/IV, with Ligament Laxity Undergoing Proximal Fibular Osteotomy with Lateral Bending Gait and Dextrose 10% Injection : A Case Series
type: item
description: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) with varus deformity and ligament laxity presents a complex clinical challenge, particularly in patients experiencing chronic pain, joint instability, and functional limitations. While Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) remains the gold standard for severe OA, not all patients are willing or have access to this procedure. Proximal Fibular Osteotomy (PFO) has emerged as a minimally invasive and cost-effective alternative, which can be combined with rehabilitative and regenerative approaches to optimize function. This case series reports two female patients aged 55 and 62 years with grade III and IV knee OA, genu varus deformity, and mild-to-moderate ligament laxity, without a history of major trauma. Clinical examination revealed medial compartment pain, limited range of motion (ROM), and knee instability during gait. The patients underwent PFO, followed by lateral trunk lean gait training using video-assisted education and mirror exercises, and intra-articular injection of 10% dextrose to enhance ligament stability. Interventions were conducted over two months with periodic rehabilitation monitoring. Clinical evaluation using the Knee Society Score (KSS), Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and ROM demonstrated significant improvements. KSS scores improved across pain, function, satisfaction, and activity domains. VAS scores decreased from 8 to 2 (Mrs. Ng) and 7 to 1 (Mrs. Su), representing ≥75% pain reduction. ROM increased from 100° to 125° (Mrs. Ng) and 110° to 130° (Mrs. Su). Both patients were able to ambulate without assistive devices within 3–4 weeks; Mrs. Su reported no ongoing complaints, while Mrs. Ng experienced only mild fatigue and calf tension. PFO effectively reduced medial compartment pressure, lateral trunk lean gait modified knee biomechanics, and 10% dextrose supported ligament stability. This multimodal approach is a promising conservative strategy or bridge to TKA, improving function, reducing pain, and enhancing quality of life, part…

Factors Influencing the Nutritional Status of Primary School Children in Suco Catral Caraic, Posto Administrativu Letefoho, Ermera Municipality, Timor-Leste
type: item
description: The nutritional status of primary school children remains a public health concern, particularly in rural areas where socioeconomic constraints and limited access to nutritious food persist. Understanding the factors associated with children’s nutritional status is essential to support effective and context-specific interventions. This study aimed to analyze factors associated with the nutritional status of primary school children in Suco Catral Caraic, Posto Administrativu Letefoho, Municipiu Ermera, Timor-Leste. A quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted among 384 primary school children using total sampling. Data were collected through structured interviews with parents or guardians and anthropometric measurements of children. The variables analyzed included age, sex, parental education, household economic status, daily dietary intake, and children’s health history. Data analysis was performed using Chi-Square tests and multinomial logistic regression. The proportion of children with normal nutritional status was 47.7%. Bivariate analysis showed no significant association between age (p = 0.956) or sex (p = 0.936) and nutritional status. Significant associations were observed between nutritional status and maternal education (p = 0.000), paternal education (p = 0.007), household economic status (p = 0.029), daily dietary intake (p = 0.000), and health history (p = 0.000). Multinomial logistic regression indicated that the model explained 50.2% of the variance in nutritional status (Nagelkerke R² = 0.502). Maternal education emerged as the most dominant factor (χ² = 87.118; p = 0.000), followed by dietary intake and health history. Maternal education, daily dietary intake, and health history were the strongest factors associated with the nutritional status of primary school children, whereas age and sex were not significantly related. These findings highlight the importance of family-based approaches and improved dietary practices to enhance child nutrition…

The Use of Wearable Technology for Cardiovascular Health Monitoring: An Evidence-Based Perspective
type: item
description: Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of global morbidity and mortality, highlighting the need for more preventive and continuous health monitoring approaches. The rapid development of wearable technology offers real-time and continuous cardiovascular monitoring; however, the strength of scientific evidence supporting its effectiveness remains inconsistent. This study aims to systematically analyze the use of wearable technology in cardiovascular health monitoring from an evidence-based perspective. A Systematic Literature Review with an evidence-based approach was conducted using peer-reviewed journal articles retrieved from Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect. Following a PRISMA-based selection process, 38 articles met the inclusion criteria and were qualitatively synthesized. The findings indicate that wearable technology demonstrates relatively strong effectiveness in heart rate monitoring and early screening of cardiac arrhythmias, while evidence for more complex clinical parameters such as blood pressure and heart failure monitoring remains limited and inconsistent. The existing literature is predominantly characterized by non-randomized studies and short-term clinical validation. This study concludes that wearable technology should be positioned as an adjunct to evidence-based clinical practice rather than a substitute for conventional medical examinations and underscores the need for stronger methodological designs and supportive regulatory frameworks in digital health.

title: Variations in 0° and 8° Caudal Angulation in Lumbosacral Joint Lateral Projection Examinations with Clinical Low Back Pain to Show More Informative Anatomy in the Radiology Department of Pariaman Regional General Hospital
description: This quantitative experimental study, conducted at the Radiology Department of Pariaman Regional General Hospital, compared the diagnostic quality of lateral lumbosacral radiographs using 0° and 8° caudal beam angles. With a sample of three female patients assessed by five radiology specialists, results analyzed via the Wilcoxon test showed the 8° caudal projection (score: 3.87) was superior to the 0° angle (score: 3.07). The 8° angle provided a more optimal image, characterized by a well-opened intervertebral disc space and clear visualization of the spinous process without sacral overlap, making it more informative for clinical evaluation. In contrast, the 0° angle, while offering a clearer vertebral body outline, resulted in a less open disc and superimposed spinous process. The findings suggest that an 8° caudal beam angle enhances visualization of key anatomical structures in lateral lumbosacral radiography.

Analysis of the Relationship of Maternal Age and Parity to Gestational Diabetes Risk
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the association between maternal age and parity with the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) using a quantitative analytic observational approach. Data were collected from scientific literature, epidemiological reports, and global health policy documents published between 2018 and 2025, focusing on the Southeast Asian region. The findings reveal that maternal age above 30 years is significantly correlated with higher GDM prevalence, with the risk sharply increasing among women aged ≥35 years. High parity (≥3 births) contributes to cumulative metabolic burden, greater insulin resistance, and elevated GDM likelihood. The interaction between maternal age and parity demonstrates a synergistic effect, reinforced by biological and social factors, including limited antenatal access and low nutritional awareness. From a public health perspective, these findings highlight the need for integrated maternal risk-based screening, preconception education, and digital health interventions to identify high-risk women early. Community-based preventive strategies and the use of digital health technologies can enhance GDM prevention, strengthen maternal and child health outcomes, and contribute to sustainable health development goals across Southeast Asia.

Evaluation of the Free Nutritious Meal Program in the 3T Region Areas Between Nutritional Equity and Infrastructure Challenges
type: item
description: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Free Nutritious Meal Program implemented in Indonesia’s frontier, outermost, and disadvantaged (3T) regions using a descriptive qualitative approach. The research focuses on three key dimensions: nutritional equity, infrastructural challenges, and community participation in sustaining program outcomes. Data were collected through the analysis of official policy documents, recent empirical studies, and relevant international literature. The findings indicate that although the program has improved access to nutritious food and public awareness of balanced diets, its implementation remains constrained by logistical barriers, weak intersectoral coordination, and limited human resource capacity at the regional level. Geographic isolation further exacerbates disparities in program effectiveness across regions. Nevertheless, evidence suggests emerging local innovations, including the utilization of local food resources, digital monitoring systems, and collaborative models involving communities and private sectors. The study concludes that achieving nutritional justice requires adaptive, participatory, and sustainable policy implementation that empowers local governance and community-based ownership. Strengthening these dimensions is essential for transforming national nutrition policy into an inclusive instrument for reducing inequality and promoting human development in Indonesia’s 3T regions.

The Community Empowerment Approach to Diabetes Prevention in Urban Areas
type: item
description: The increasing prevalence of type 2 diabetes in urban areas highlights the urgency of multidimensional interventions that go beyond conventional clinical approaches. Rapid urbanization, obesogenic environments, and unequal access to healthy food reinforce the social determinants of health, which systematically trigger metabolic risks. This study used qualitative methods through a review of current literature to identify patterns, structural determinants, and the effectiveness of community empowerment as a prevention strategy. The analysis shows that individual-based programs often fail due to a lack of environmental support, the dominance of ultra-processed foods, and economic barriers. Community empowerment has been shown to improve health literacy, strengthen positive social norms, and trigger active participation in advocacy for healthier environmental policies. The findings emphasize the need for public policy reforms to regulate the food industry, expand physical activity spaces, and direct budget allocations toward prevention efforts. Cross-sectoral integration, including urban planning, education, and active transportation, fosters the sustainability of interventions. Community capacity building has the potential to create stronger collective health resilience than top-down approaches. Therefore, the synergy between community empowerment and structural policies is considered a comprehensive strategy to control the epidemiological trends of diabetes in urban areas. This study highlights the need to reposition the role of communities as key actors in the urban health ecosystem.

Health as a Social Issue: a Narrative of Service Amidst Unequal Access to Medical Services
type: item
description: Health is understood as a universal basic right that is inseparable from human existence and requires state guarantees through fair and equitable access to services. Fulfillment of this right is not only related to the availability of medical facilities, but also to ensuring equal access without discrimination based on social, economic, or geographic status. The phenomenon of health service inequality in Indonesia shows the concentration of modern facilities in urban areas, while communities in rural and remote areas face structural barriers, including limited infrastructure, medical personnel, and funding. This condition not only increases morbidity and mortality but also reinforces social exclusion rooted in the unfair distribution of resources. On the other hand, narratives of the dedication of health workers in marginalized areas demonstrate dedication that transcends material limitations and becomes a form of social solidarity in fighting for the public's right to health. These narratives simultaneously critique the unequal distribution of health care systems and inspire the integration of empathy and compassion into medical services. This research uses a qualitative approach through a literature review, examining academic journals, policy documents, and international reports to identify key themes related to inequality in access and the social dimensions of health. The analysis was conducted using content analysis to reduce data, categorize issues, and synthesize relevant narratives to obtain a comprehensive picture of the links between health, social justice, and sustainable development. The study's findings confirm that health should be viewed as a strategic investment and a pillar of social justice, requiring data-driven policies, proportional resource distribution, and active community participation. Therefore, equitable fulfillment of the right to health is a crucial foundation for building a more equal, inclusive, and competitive nation

The Effectiveness of Reproductive Health Education in Reducing Fear of Pregnancy in Women of Childbearing Age
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of reproductive health education in reducing fear of pregnancy among women of childbearing age through a qualitative approach based on literature review. Reproductive education is seen as a strategic instrument for improving reproductive literacy, strengthening self-efficacy, and correcting irrational perceptions of pregnancy risks. The literature review shows that women with high reproductive literacy tend to have a better scientific understanding of the reproductive system, enabling them to objectively assess pregnancy risks and reduce unfounded anxiety. Effective educational programs focus not only on knowledge transfer but also on psychological strengthening and social empowerment. Sociocultural factors, educational communication, and gender relations have been shown to be important determinants in the successful internalization of educational messages. Education that is sensitive to cultural values and participatory in nature can build trust, increase acceptance of the material, and expand the program's influence on the behavioral and emotional domains. The synthesis of results shows that comprehensively designed reproductive health education contributes significantly to reducing fear of pregnancy through the integration of cognitive, affective, and social aspects. These findings emphasize the importance of a multidimensional approach in reproductive health interventions to achieve a balance between scientific understanding and psychological well-being for women of childbearing age.
