Children are national assets that will carry on the progress of a nation, so their growth and development must be considered. Children are the most important resource for future economic growth (UNICEF, 2018). The toddler period is also critical and golden. The sensitive period in children is different. This statement is in line with the rate of growth and development of children (Ardi et al., 2021). In 2019, the number of children in Indonesia reached 84.4 million, consisting of 43.2 million boys and 41.1 million girls. The number of children in Indonesia was 31.6%, an increase of 1.5% from 2018, about 4.9 million people. The environment is one of the most necessary factors in the development of children. Data from the Ministry of PPPA (2020) recorded that in 2018, there were 4.82% of children who did not live with their parents. According to a survey by the Child Protection Commission (KPAI) in Indonesia in 2015, 66.4% of fathers and 71% of mothers adopted their parenting style (Hanafiah, 2022; Lestari et al., 2019). The results of the KPAI study showed that 47.1% of fathers and 40.6% of mothers communicated with their children only for one hour (Ministry of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection of the Republic of Indonesian, 2020). Parenting self-efficacy is defined as parents' belief in their ability to positively influence their children's behaviour and development, as well as parental confidence in their ability to raise children. It is expected that the process of child development will also lead to positive development (Cobb-Clark, Salamanca, & Zhu, 2019). Parenting self-efficacy (PSE) describes parents' belief in their ability to perform a parenting role successfully. Consistently higher levels of PSE correlate

In helping to maintain reproductive health, of course, there needs to be other factors that can support the achievement of reproductive health maintenance such as sources of information, knowledge, and attitudes. This study aims is to determine the influence of sources of information, knowledge, and attitudes toward the reproductive health of blind adolescents in the Sukabumi. A source of information is a set of useful information to meet the need for information or news for the wider community. Knowledge is the result of knowing and this happens after a person performs sensing of an object. Attitude is the readiness to react to an object in a certain environment as a passion for an object. Behavior is a person's response or reaction to a stimulus. This type of research is correlational with the cross-sectional approach. Total sampling was used for the population and sample of 42 blind adolescents in Sukabumi. Statistical analysis was done using multiple linear regression. The results showed that there was a significant influence of information sources on the reproductive health behavior of blind adolescents (p-value 0.000), there was a relationship of knowledge on the reproductive health behavior of blind adolescents (p-value 0.000), and there was knowledge of attitudes toward reproductive health behaviors of blind adolescents (p-value 0.000). There is a simultaneous influence of sources of information, knowledge and attitudes towards reproductive health behaviors of blind adolescents (p-value 0.000). It can be concluded that sources of information, knowledge, and attitudes have an influence on the reproductive health behavior of adolescents with visual disabilities. This study's findings can be used to further investigate reproductive health in blind adolescents.

The main mechanism for the development of DN is an inflammatory reaction as indicated by increased expression of NF-kB in kidney tissue due to chronic hyperglycemia and hypercholesterolemia. Hyperglycemia is related to changes in the composition of the microbiota which can cause dysbiosis. The therapeutic approach in DM sufferers using probiotics needs attention. Dadiah is a naturally fermented buffalo milk product in bamboo tubes. Even though this probiotic has health benefits, its mechanism as an antidiabetic is not widely known. This study aims to reduce blood sugar, cholesterol, and inflammatory marker NF-kB levels after Dadiah treatment. This study was an experimental animal study using 7 groups, each group of 6 rats, 8 weeks of intervention, and evaluation of serum glucose and cholesterol every 2 weeks. NF-kB expression in kidney tissue was examined after 8 weeks of the ...

Thus, it is common for chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients to be depressed, and with the progression of CKD, their overall quality of life (QOL) could decrease. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the relationship between depression and QOL among patients undergoing hemodialysis in Indonesia. This cross-sectional research was conducted at a West Java Province, Indonesia, public health center, from August to December 2020. The inclusion criteria of participants were over the age of 20 and having been undergoing HD for at least six months. Depression was evaluated using the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) and QOL was measured using The Kidney Disease and Life Quality-SF v1.3 Survey (The KDQOL-SF v1.3). Pearson's correlation analysis was used to investigate the correlation between depression and QOL. There were 190 respondents out of 225 (response rate: 84.4%), including 100 patients with CKD stages 1-3 (response rate: 75.6%). No correlation was found between demographic characteristics and QOL in HD patients (p > 0.05). The Indonesian KDQOL-SFTM v1.3 was associated with the BDI-II, and r ranged from 00.354 to 0.486. In order to increase QOL, it is recommended that depression is treated with routine follow-up in a collaborative care approach because intensive treatment is not normally reproduced in real-world practices.

Patients with chronic kidney disease often receive hemodialysis as replacement therapy for kidney function. Studies preventing the deterioration of quality of life were published in the literature. However, none discusses the combination therapy between intradialytic exercise and cognitive behavior therapy. Therefore, the review aims at evaluating these combination therapies in patients with hemodialysis. The study used a systematic literature review design to identify all articles on intradialytic exercise and cognitive behavior therapy. The results highlighted that there is an improvement in quality of life when implementing combination therapies. Furthermore, it helps to accelerate the medical approach to chronic kidney disease. Further study should focus on the use of therapies among patients with different stages of kidney failure.

Individuals who use proactive coping will improve their environment and life rather than reacting to the past and planning for the future by constructing and pooling available resources to deal with stressors. However, instruments measured proactive coping toward smoking cessation are limited. This study aimed to develop and test the validity and reliability of proactive coping toward smoking cessation in adolescents. The data collection process was divided into two phases, namely instrument development and psychometric testing. Exploratory factor analysis and reliability testing were conducted on 300 adolescents. Proactive coping smoking cessation (PCSC) is the development of proactive coping inventory (PCI). Loading factor coefficient on support seeking 0.54-0.82, reflective coping 0.585-0.823, strategic planning 0.580-0.736, proactive coping 0.439-0.648, avoidance 0.586-0.826 and preventive coping 0.507-0.707. Cronbach's alpha for PCSC ranged from 0.970 to 0.972. PCSC shows the acceptable internal and external consistency and the results of the exploratory factor analysis (EFA) verify that the six-factor model correctly represents the original PCI factor structure. Future studies are required to test the instrument in different setting and culture

The use of digital media is a promising strategy to address adolescent health. AIM: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of digital media-base on smoking cessation programs toward empowerment among adolescents in Indonesia. METHODS: This was a quasi-experimental design with pre-and post-instruments employing the youth group member survey. Quantitative data were evaluated using the Mann-Whitney U-test to examine changes in participants' degree of adolescent empowerment toward smoking cessation between the control and intervention groups. RESULTS: A total of 170 adolescent smokers agreed to join this study, with 85 participants in each group. There is a significant difference in adolescent empowerment between the control group and the intervention group, as shown by p < 0.05. CONCLUSION: Digital media-based smoking cessation programs are promising techniques (with potential benefits) for increasing adolescent empowerment. The future studies should employ more rigorous procedures and a larger sample size to support this finding.

Individuals who use proactive coping will improve their environment and life rather than reacting to the past and planning for the future by constructing and pooling available resources to deal with stressors. However, instruments measured proactive coping toward smoking cessation are limited. This study aimed to develop and test the validity and reliability of proactive coping toward smoking cessation in adolescents. The data collection process was divided into two phases, namely instrument development and psychometric testing. Exploratory factor analysis and reliability testing were conducted on 300 adolescents. Proactive coping smoking cessation (PCSC) is the development of proactive coping inventory (PCI). Loading factor coefficient on support seeking 0.54-0.82, reflective coping 0.585-0.823, strategic planning 0.580-0.736, proactive coping 0.439-0.648, avoidance 0.586-0.826 and preventive coping 0.507-0.707. Cronbach's alpha for PCSC ranged from 0.970 to 0.972. PCSC shows the acceptable internal and external consistency and the results of the exploratory factor analysis (EFA) verify that the six-factor model correctly represents the original PCI factor structure. Future studies are required to test the instrument in different setting and culture

The use of digital media is a promising strategy to address adolescent health. AIM: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of digital media-base on smoking cessation programs toward empowerment among adolescents in Indonesia. METHODS: This was a quasi-experimental design with pre-and post-instruments employing the youth group member survey. Quantitative data were evaluated using the Mann-Whitney U-test to examine changes in participants' degree of adolescent empowerment toward smoking cessation between the control and intervention groups. RESULTS: A total of 170 adolescent smokers agreed to join this study, with 85 participants in each group. There is a significant difference in adolescent empowerment between the control group and the intervention group, as shown by p < 0.05. CONCLUSION: Digital media-based smoking cessation programs are promising techniques (with potential benefits) for increasing adolescent empowerment. The future studies should employ more rigorous procedures and a larger sample size to support this finding.

One of the risks for the incidence of decompression sickness is the number of hours of diving and diving experience. This study aims to analyze the number of dives in a week and the experience of diving on the occurrence of decompression sickness. Methods: The study used an observational analytic design with a cross-sectional approach, involving 66 divers as research samples taken by simple random sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires and observations of divers' health status to see the incidence of decompression in divers. Data were analyzed using logistic regression with a significance value of P<0.05. Results: The results showed that the number of hours of diving in one week, and diving experience influenced the incidence of decompression sickness experienced by divers (p<0.05). The results of the regression test showed an Exp (B) value of 10,540 for the number of dives in a...

Therefore, controlling blood pressure becomes essential for reducing the burden of high blood pressure-related disorders. OBJECTIVE The study aimed to determine the impact of telemonitoring and self-care management mobile application of controlling blood pressure among patients with hypertension in Indonesia. METHODS This study was conducted using a queasy experiment. The intervention group received self-management and telemonitoring mobile application. They were followed by both groups for 2 months. Patients eligible for eligibility if they were 35–65 years of age, diagnosed with two or less antihypertensive drugs for hypertension, had a blood pressure of more than 140/90 mmHg. Estimated difference-in-differences (DID) for intention-to-treat (ITT) was used to measure the effect of intervention on outcome overtime. RESULTS A total of 64 patients with hypertension in each group joined in this st...
