Abstract

Cervical cancer, or what is often referred to as cervical cancer, is one of the most common types of cancer in the gynecological cancer category throughout the world. Education about cervical cancer and the implementation of VIA examinations have a very important role in increasing public awareness of the importance of maintaining cervical health and encouraging early detection of cervical cancer disorders. This outreach activity provides accurate information about cervical cancer, how important it is to maintain cervical health, as well as factors that can influence the risk of developing cervical cancer. In addition, examination using the IVA method makes it possible to carry out an objective evaluation of the condition of each individual's cervix. By increasing public knowledge and understanding of the importance of cervical health, it can encourage the implementation of appropriate preventive measures, such as undergoing regular VIA examinations, avoiding risk factors that can increase the risk of cervical cancer, and supporting early detection efforts. Early detection of cervical cancer through IVA examination allows early identification of cervical disease, so that treatment can be started early to control and slow the progression of the disease. VIA counseling and examination in the context of cervical cancer prevention is a long-term investment in improving people's quality of life and reducing the burden of cervical cancer in society as a whole.

Abstract

Acne Vulgaris (AV) is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting the pilosebaceous follicles, characterized by multifactorial causative factors and clinical manifestations such as cysts, pustules, comedones, nodules, and papules. While AV is not life-threatening, it can significantly impact an individual's well-being by reducing self-esteem, increasing anxiety, and affecting their economic and social life. This paper conducts a comprehensive analysis of existing literature, synthesizing information from multiple reputable sources. The main objective of this review is to explore the implementation of treatments related to the relationship between skin cleansing habits and Acne Vulgaris. The connection between facial skin hygiene and the occurrence of Acne Vulgaris is of significant interest. One key aspect is the potential reduction in Acne Vulgaris when individuals maintain good facial skin hygiene practices. When facial skin is cleaned appropriately, it hinders the accumulation of excess sebum, one of the contributing factors to the development of Acne Vulgaris. It is essential to acknowledge the variability in research outcomes. While certain studies propose that excessive facial cleansing may worsen Acne Vulgaris due to potential skin irritation and glandular complications, others recommend a minimum of twice-daily facial cleansing with a gentle cleanser to maintain skin well-being. The optimal cleansing frequency may depend on individual skin conditions and the presence of comedonal lesions.

Abstract

existence of a problem by systematically collecting data within a community. Anemia is a health issue that commonly arises, characterized by a condition in which the body's hemoglobin levels fall below the normal range. According to the 2018 Riskesdas data, the prevalence of anemia among adolescent girls reaches approximately 32%, meaning that 3 to 4 out of every 10 adolescent girls experience anemia. Anemia in adolescent girls has the potential to result in various negative consequences, such as reduced immunity, decreased academic performance, and diminished productivity. These observations emphasize the necessity of conducting a community diagnosis to enhance awareness and reduce cases of anemia among adolescent girls in the Puskesmas Gembong working area. The primary objectives include improving knowledge about anemia and decreasing the number of anemia cases among adolescent girls in the Puskesmas Gembong working area. An intervention plan in the form of educational sessions about anemia was developed. Following the intervention, there was an improvement in knowledge, with post-test scores exceeding 60% for over 50% of the participants. Therefore, this community diagnosis serves to enhance knowledge about anemia among adolescent girls and has resulted in the identification of anemia cases among them, leading to appropriate referrals for treatment.

Abstract

The enactment of legislation governing decision-making for incapacitated individuals serves a crucial purpose, primarily enabling individuals to proactively plan for future incapacity by appointing trusted agents to make decisions on their behalf. In the context of England and Wales, adults can achieve this through the utilization of a lasting power of attorney, as stipulated in the Mental Capacity Act 2005 (sections 9-14). Specifically, a health and care lasting power of attorney grants authority to an appointed agent to make day-to-day care decisions in situations where the individual is unable to do so. It is imperative for district nurses to obtain the consent of the appointed attorney before administering treatment to the donor. Furthermore, a district nurse should conduct a comprehensive review of the actions taken by the donor's attorney, involving consultation with the donor, the general practitioner (GP), and the attorney. Should conflicts regarding care persist, legal intervention by the courts may be necessary. Notably, life-sustaining or necessary therapies would continue in such instances. It is essential to emphasize that lasting health and care powers of attorney are not subject to illegality, encompassing situations where the donor expresses wishes for euthanasia or assisted dying. District nurses are required to obtain a copy of the health and care enduring power of attorney, respecting the authority of the appointed attorney to make decisions in cases where the donor lacks capacity. In the Eastern context, considerations of human rights, religion, ethics, and law collectively categorize euthanasia as a criminal act. Conversely, while Indonesia lacks specific regulations addressing euthanasia, various legal sources indicate that both seeking and performing euthanasia are deemed criminal activities.

Abstract

Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a rapid-onset infection caused by the Dengue virus that can lead to severe shock and even death. Pometia pinnata, a plant found in the Maluku region, possesses untapped therapeutic potential despite the presence of secondary metabolite chemicals believed to have larvicidal properties. This study aims to evaluate the biolarvicidal efficacy of the leaf extract of Pometia pinnata against Aedes aegypti's larvae, a DHF carrier. The extraction process used the maceration technique employing ethanol as the solvent. A larvicidal experiment was performed to evaluate the bioactivity against Aedes aegypti larvae. The findings indicated that the leaf extract of Pometia pinnata possesses larvicidal properties against Aedes aegypti larvae, as evidenced by an LC50 value of 0.101%. The results offer insights into the possible utilisation of Pometia pinnata leaf extract as a viable source of active compounds for developing biolarvicides to control dengue vectors.

Abstract

The global impact of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) includes anxiety disorders, which further worsen the impact and are associated with poor medication adherence, recurrent hospitalization, and poorer outcomes. The study aimed to assess the prevalence and correlates of anxiety disorders among CALWHA attending antiretroviral clinics at the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital. It was a comparative cross-sectional study, adopting a random systematic sampling method. The instruments used were the socio-demographic questionnaire, clinical proforma, and the Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School-Aged Children Present and Lifetime Version (K-SAD-PL). Data analysis was done using SPSS version 26. The study population comprises 83 males (51.9%) and 77 females (48.1%). The participants ranged from 6-18 years, with a mean age of 11.4 years (SD=3.15). The prevalence of anxiety disorders among CALWHA is 22.0%. The disclosure of HIV status to CALWHA was more likely to be associated with any anxiety disorder. This was even still significant statistically after adjusting for gender (OR=2.8, CI=1.1-7.1 and (OR=2.8, CI=1.1-7.1) respectively. There is a high prevalence of anxiety disorders among the CALWHA. We, therefore, recommend the need to integrate mental health services into the care of HIV and reinforce consultation liaison psychiatry among children and adolescents.

Abstract

Lower Back Pain (LBP) is a frequently reported issue among people in different domains, including students enrolled in nursing education programmes. Nursing students frequently endure prolonged periods of sitting during their participation in lecture activities. An unergonomic sitting posture and extended periods of sitting can increase the likelihood of experiencing lower back pain (LBP) complaints. This study investigated the correlation between sitting posture and duration and the occurrence of low back pain (LBP) complaints in nursing students at the College of Health Sciences of Pasapua Ambon. This research methodology was characterised by its analytical nature and relies on primary data collected using a cross-sectional approach. A total of 76 participants were included in the study, and they were provided with a Google form including a questionnaire to complete. The acquired data was subsequently examined using both univariate and bivariate methods. The findings indicated no statistically significant correlation between the sitting posture and complaints of lower back pain (LBP). A notable correlation existed between the amount of time spent sitting and lower back pain (LBP) symptoms. These findings suggest that focusing on the amount of time spent sitting rather than the specific sitting posture to reduce lower back pain complaints among university students is more crucial. This highlights the necessity of restricting extended periods of sitting while also emphasising the importance of taking sufficient breaks and engaging in frequent stretching.
