Stunting is a nutritional problem faced by the Indonesian state year after year. The impact of stunting is physical and intellectual. Various studies have been conducted to help overcome the problem of stunting, especially in height, weight, and motor development. One of these studies examined the effect of acupressure on changes in body weight and height in stunting children. This is a type of research: an Experimental design, a True experimental pre-posttest control-group design. The sampling technique used is simple random sampling, a sample of 30 children aged 0-2 years. The study found that the average body weight before acupressure was 9.6 kg, and after acupressure, it was 10.9 kg (p-value less than 0.05). The average height before the intervention was 73.6 cm, and after the intervention was 74.2 cm (p-value less than0.05). Acupressure affects weight gain and height.

Latar Belakang: Seiring proses penuaan, kemampuan fisik seseorang akan menurun, sehingga lansia yang lebih rentan mengalami gangguan kesehatan. Dalam banyak kasus, lansia kurang memperhatikan perawatan gigi dan mulut mereka karena keterbatasan kondisi fisik, yang akhirnya berdampak pada menurunnya kebersihan rongga mulut serta memicu kehilangan gigi. Penelitian ini berujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan pengetahuan kesehatan gigi dan mulut dengan kejadian kehilangan gigi pada lansia. Metode: Penelitian ini menerapkan jenis cross sectional kuantitatif yang dilakukan pada 36 lansia di wilayah Puskesmas Bulak Banteng Surabaya yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi yang diperoleh dari penerapan teknik purposive sampling. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan menggunakan kuesioner serta melakukan pemeriksaan rongga mulut responden guna menghitung jumlah gigi yang masih berfungsi di dalam rongga mulut responden. Analisa data dilakukan dengan menerapkan uji chi-square untuk mengidentifikasi adanya hubungan pengetahuan kesehatan gigi dan mulut dengan kasus kehilangan gigi pada lansia. Hasil: mayoritas lansia 66,7% memiliki pengetahuan berada pada kategori rendah, 19,4% lansia memiliki pengetahuan dengan ketgori cukup. Pemeriksaan rongga mulut menunjukkan sebagian besar lansia kehilangan gigi permanen. Hasil uji statistik diperoleh nilai signifikansi p = 0,0000 < dari batas signifikasi 0,05. Kesimpulan: Adanya hubungan antara pengetahuan kesehatan gigi dan mulut dengan kejadian kehilangan gigi pada lansia, kemungkinan disebabkan oleh rendahnya pengetahuan yang dimiliki lansia. Kata kunci : Pengetahuan, kehilangan gigi, lansia.

The use of augmented reality (AR) technology in health education is growing rapidly due to its ability to provide interactive and immersive learning experiences. However, research that comprehensively evaluates the feasibility of AR applications on female reproductive system material is still limited. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of an augmented reality (AR)-based application as an interactive medium in learning about the female reproductive system. The evaluation was conducted on four main aspects, namely: software engineering, learning design, visual communication, and user acceptance. The research method used is a quantitative descriptive approach with data collection techniques through assessment questionnaires by experts and end users (students). The evaluation results show that the software engineering aspect obtained a feasibility score of 82% (excellent feasibility), the learning design aspect 85% (excellent feasibility), the visual communication aspect 71% (good feasibility), and the user acceptance aspect 85% (excellent feasibility). These findings indicate that the developed AR application is generally very suitable for use as a learning medium, especially in supporting the understanding of the concept of the female reproductive system interactively and contextually. However, the visual communication aspect still requires improvement to optimize the user experience. This research contributes to the development of innovative learning media in the field of health education and opens up opportunities for further research that tests the effectiveness of learning quantitatively and in the long term.

Misestimating portion sizes of food consumed will affect the quality of the estimate and result in inaccurate nutrient intake. Conventional digital food scales only measure body weight without listing nutritional values, thus limiting their usefulness in health education and promotion. This study aims to develop and test Nutridi, a modified digital food scale equipped with nutritional reference values, as a tool to support nutrition education. Research Methods This research is a quantitative study with a research and development (R&D) design at Poltekkes Kemenkes Yogyakarta between April and October 2022. The object of this study is the Nutridi digital scale, developed by integrating food composition data into the digital weighing system. Data processing using the Stata application began with a normality test using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and then a paired t-test. The results of weighing 62 food ingredients showed that the Nutridi digital scale was proven to be precise (CV 0%) and accurate equivalent to the Camry digital scale (mean difference ?1 g), The normality test on the distribution of differences between the Nutridi digital scale and the Camry digital scale (pooled, n = 186) with Kolmogorov–Smirnov showed deviations from the normal distribution (mean diff 0.0430 g; SD 0.2034 g; D = 0.5407; p <0.001), which was likely influenced by the large number of identical difference values ??(ties; e.g. 0 g or ±1 g) due to the limited resolution of the measuring instrument. However, the paired t-test per ingredient showed that for ingredients with measurement variations, there was no significant difference between the two scales (p>0.05), while for ingredients with all identical replicates between tools, the t-statistic was not calculated because the variance was zero which practically indicated that the results of both tools were exactly the same. In conclusion, the Nutridi digital scale has good precision and accuracy and is suitable for use as a learning tool in food weighing practicums at the Nutrition Department of the Ministry of Health's Polytechnic of Health, as well as for household use. Further research is needed to validate its accuracy, improve its usability, and expand its food database for broader applications.

<p><strong><em>Background: </em></strong><em>Labor pain may induce maternal anxiety, interfere with uterine contractions, and prolong the birthing process. Music therapy is a non-pharmacological intervention known to mitigate both labor pain and anxiety.</em><strong><em> </em></strong><strong><em></em></strong></p><p><strong><em>Objective</em></strong><em>: This study aimed to compare the effects of Javanese-traditional (Karawitan instrumental) and classical music therapies on anxiety, labor pain, and the duration of the first and second stages of labor.</em><strong><em></em></strong></p><p><strong><em>M</em></strong><strong><em>ethods:</em></strong><strong><em> </em></strong><em>A randomized controlled trial was conducted involving 201 mothers undergoing normal labor at primary healthcare centers. Participants were assigned into three groups: Javanese-traditional music (Karawitan instrumental), classical music, and a control group practicing deep breathing. Interventions lasted 40 minutes. Anxiety was measured using the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, pain intensity with a visual analog scale, and labor duration through partograph analysis. Statistical tests included paired t-test, Wilcoxon signed-rank, Kruskal</em><em>-</em><em>Wallis, one-way ANOVA, and Mann</em><em>-</em><em>Whitney U tests</em><em></em></p><p><strong><em>Results:</em></strong><em> Both music interventions significantly reduced anxiety and pain within groups (p</em><em>-value</em><em>< 0.001). No significant difference in pain reduction was found between the two music groups during the first active phase (p</em><em>-value</em><em>= 0.108). Similarly, anxiety scores did not differ significantly between the music groups post-intervention (p</em><em>-value</em><em>= 0.956), though classical music showed a slightly greater reduction. Regarding labor duration, Javanese-traditional music was associated with a shorter first stage, while classical music significantly reduced the duration of the second stage (p</em><em>-value</em><em>= 0.000 and p</em><em>-value</em><em>= 0.035, respectively).<strong></strong></em></p><strong><em>Conclusions: </em></strong><em>Javanese-traditional (Karawitan instrumental) and classical music therapies are both effective in reducing maternal anxiety and labor pain while supporting labor progress.

The use of bulk cooking oil added with shallot powder has no known effect on the body so it is necessary to conduct a study to determine the effect of the addition of shallot powder as a natural antioxidant added to bulk cooking oil in mice on one of the qualitative benchmark parameters in the form of cytological examination of blood. This study aims to find out about the effect of bulk cooking oil added with antioxidants, namely shallot powder on the cytological picture of the blood of mice (Mus musculus) whose analysis results are compared with bulk cooking oil added with synthetic antioxidant BHT and bulk cooking oil without the addition of antioxidants. Toxicity test was determined by blood cytology examination by looking at several parameters, namely erythrocyte morphology, erythrocyte count, leukocyte count and diff count. The results of 1-way Anova test statistical data show that there is no effect of giving onion powder in bulk cooking oil to mice (Mus musculus) on the number of erythrocytes and leukocytes. While in the diff count, the results of the Paired Sample t-test statistical data show that there is an effect of adding onion powder to bulk cooking oil in mice (Mus musculus), namely an increase in lymphocytes and neutrophil segments.

One condition that is closely associated with the aged population is hypertension. It is referred to as a "silent killer" because, although it frequently shows no symptoms, it can cause serious problems. A person's health can deteriorate due to hypertension, which can have a detrimental impact on their quality of life. 32 senior citizens at the Nogosaren Elderly Integrated Health Post (Posyandu Elderly) had hypertension in 2023, whereas 2,647 cases of hypertension were reported at the Gamping II Community Health Center. Exercise for hypertension is a type of physical activity intended for older adults with hypertension with the goals of managing stress, which is one of the primary causes of elevated blood pressure, and losing weight. Two times a week at the very least, this 30-minute workout is done. Goal: to ascertain how exercise for high blood pressure affects older people's quality of life. This study used a one-group pre-test-post-test quasi-experimental design. 32 senior citizens were chosen for the sample using total sampling. The Wilcoxon test was used to examine the data at a significance level of p < 0.05. The quality of life scores before and after the hypertension exercise intervention differed significantly, according to the statistical analysis, with a p-value of 0.000 (p ? 0.05). Elderly people's quality of life is significantly improved by hypertension exercise. It is advised that nursing care practices incorporate this intervention and that it be maintained as a long-term program in senior health services.
