Abstract

The patient's medical records at the Independent Midwife Practice (PMB) must be stored and kept confidential in order to provide good, quality, and responsive health services to patients. Nuning Midwife Independent Practice Nuning, S.ST,. Tanah Bumbu was founded in 2012. During its 11 years of existence, patients still have to queue in the waiting room for a long time. This is because the service process and medical records used are still manual. This study aims to make a special application on PMB. Researchers use the research and development method to facilitate the research process and the waterfall method as a reference for the PMB application development process. The resulting development product is a PMB application that can provide convenience to midwives in providing services to patients and reduce the long queue of patients in the waiting room. Data collection used interviews with 2 respondents from PMB owners and midwives. The results of the research are in the form of functional and non-functional system requirements for PMB applications. These needs are translated in the form of system design in the form of system flowcharts, use case diagrams, class diagrams, activity diagrams, entity relationship diagrams, and data flow diagrams. The design is then translated into a programming language using PHP programming and MySQL database. From the results of this study, it has several features, namely login features, patient visit report features, patient referral letter features, detailed identity data features for patients and midwives, notification features, patient registration/registration features independently, and patient examination results record features. Features that are not yet available in the PMB application are the automatic payment feature and the distance between the PMB and the referred hospital.

Abstract

This research describes the use of GeoAI, a geospatial data-based artificial intelligence, to improve the understanding and management of health in a global context. GeoAI enables the integration of geographic data such as maps, satellite images, and environmental information with artificial intelligence technology to analyze disease spread, health risk factors, and health resource management more accurately. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach. The type of research used is a literature study. The literature review database used is by searching on Google Scholar, Scopus, and Google Book. The results of this study show that the basic concept of GeoAI involves more accurate spatial analysis, disease spread monitoring, disease outbreak prediction, and more efficient health resource management. However, challenges such as access to adequate data, lack of understanding among health professionals, and data privacy and security issues need to be addressed for GeoAI to be effectively implemented. In conclusion, GeoAI has great potential in improving public health and addressing global health challenges, but requires careful steps in its implementation.

Abstract

Therapy for autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis (MS) is currently available in symptom management, pain-relieving, and mitigation of disease. Currently, prescribed drugs for patients with the disease work in specific mechanisms, regardless of failure to determine the most effective medication. We use a literature review to highlight two newly examined substances: organoruthenium 9E1 and APL altered collagen II263-272 peptide, and elaborate substances mentioned above' potential to be used in rheumatoid arthritis and MS therapy. Several studies show positive effects from 9E1 and altered CII263-272 peptides on experimented mice. Altered CII263-272 peptide can elicit Th cells to produce neurotrophic factors, decrease the body amount of pro-inflammatory T cells, increase the body amount of anti-inflammatory T cells, and alleviate collagen-induced arthritis symptoms. Meanwhile, 9E1 can inhibit Mst1 kinase effectively (IC50=45nM), giving consequences of decreasing Th1 cells' cytokines, increasing Th2 cells' cytokines, decreasing body amount's IgG1 and IgG2a, slowing down EAE and collagen-induced arthritis' manifestation, increasing IL-10 and IL-4-producing T cells. Organoruthenium and altered CII263-272 peptide possess positive and multiple effects as therapies for EAE and collagen-induced arthritis, hence potential to be prescribed to patients with rheumatoid arthritis and MS. This literature review suggests further research concerning 9E1 and altered CII263-272 peptide usage in the community to examine their effectivity, side effects, and suitable dose.

Abstract

This research discusses the impact of climate change on human health using a medical geography approach. Climate change affects health through extreme heatwaves, changing patterns of infectious disease spread and intensification of natural disasters. A medical geography perspective provides insight into how geographical factors such as climate, topography and population distribution affect vulnerability to these impacts. The importance of understanding medical geography in meeting these challenges and the need for global cooperation to address the impacts of climate change on human health are emphasized. The article underscores the need for appropriate mitigation measures to protect future human health in the face of increasingly apparent climate change.

Abstract

Hatha Yoga, characterized by body posture formation techniques and controlled breathing exercises, seeks to maintain the body's natural equilibrium. Conversely, hypertension, marked by elevated blood pressure within the vascular system, is a persistent medical condition. Its prevalence increases with age, particularly in low and middle-income nations. This study explores the effect of Hatha Yoga exercises on blood pressure in elderly hypertensive patients at the Biaro Public Health Center in 2023. Employing a Quasi-Experimental One Group Pretest-Posttest Design, this research engaged a study population comprising individuals aged 45-59 years. Purposive sampling identified a sample of 12 participants. Over a 2-week period, data was collected utilizing an aneroid sphygmomanometer and observation sheets. Data analysis encompassed univariate and bivariate analyses, employing the paired t-test. The results revealed that the mean blood pressure in hypertensive patients prior to participating in Hatha Yoga was 155.50, whereas following the intervention, it reduced to 150.08. These outcomes indicated a substantial impact, as evidenced by a p-value of 0.030, surpassing the significance level α (0.05). In conclusion, Hatha Yoga exercises significantly influenced blood pressure in elderly hypertensive patients at the Biaro Public Health Center in 2023. Consequently, it is recommended that hypertensive elderly individuals incorporate regular and disciplined Hatha Yoga exercises into their routine to effectively manage their blood pressure.
