Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by persistently high blood sugar levels, which can lead to complications such as diabetic foot issues. A crucial aspect for healthcare professionals providing care to DM patients is assessing the patient's level of adherence and understanding regarding self-care and disease management. Data from the 2023 SKI (Indonesian Health Survey) indicates there were 118,184 cases of Diabetes Mellitus in Central Java. Foot care education delivered via remote services assists patients in performing proper foot care to prevent complications associated with the condition. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of an animated video based on the Theory of Planned Behavior in improving the knowledge and adherence of patients with diabetic ulcers. A quasi-experimental design was employed, utilizing a one-group pre-test and post-test approach with a control group. Incidental sampling was used to select 60 respondents. The Mann-Whitney test yielded a p-value of < 0.05 (0.017), demonstrating that the animated video based on the Theory of Planned Behavior was effective in enhancing both adherence and knowledge among patients with diabetic ulcers. The findings suggest that this animated video, leveraging audiovisual media, can be implemented in educational settings to help prevent foot complications in patients with diabetes.

Complications of Diabetes Mellitus often arise and without being realized have developed to cause acute and chronic complications that make it difficult for DM sufferers to maintain their condition and will affect the condition of DM sufferers that impact the quality of life of sufferers. Consuming too many carbohydrates causes insulin in the body to work extra, so that the insulin's ability to work in the body will be reduced, which can cause blood sugar to rise. Nutritional therapy can be done by replacing carbohydrate intake with tubers that are low in glucose levels, one of which is Ganyong and pharmacological therapy through herbal medicines, one of which is sentalo leaf tea which is easily obtained and inexpensive. The objectives of this community service activity are to improve the knowledge, skills and quality of service of partners in the implementation of family posyandu related to DM. The method used is empowering posyandu groups through educational activities and training. The results of this activity show an increase in knowledge and skills of partners before and after the community service activity was carried out. And an increase in visits to the posyandu after the implementation of PMT using ganyong flour as the raw material.

Submandibular Abscess is an accumulation of pus in the neck space resulting from the spread of infection, most commonly originating from dental infection. This condition requires surgical incision and drainage along with comprehensive nursing care to prevent serious complications. This study used a descriptive method in the form of a case study approach through the nursing process, aimed at describing nursing care for patients with Pre and Post Op Submandibular Abscess. Nursing diagnoses that emerged in Ny. T consisted of five diagnoses: Pre-op: Acute Pain related to physiological injuring agent and Anxiety related to situational crisis. Post-op: Acute Pain related to physical injuring agent, Risk of Infection evidenced by invasive procedures, and Knowledge Deficit related to lack of information exposure. Interventions provided included Pain Management, Relaxation Therapy, Infection Prevention, and Health Education. After nursing implementation for four days (February 12-15, 2026), out of the five diagnoses, two were fully resolved: anxiety and knowledge deficit, while three others were partially resolved due to time constraints, requiring continuous follow-up of nursing care.

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels due to impaired insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. Uncontrolled diabetes can lead to various complications and decreased quality of life. Moringa oleifera leaves contain bioactive compounds, including flavonoids, vitamins A, C, and E, as well as selenium, which possess antioxidant properties and are believed to help reduce blood glucose levels. This study aims to determine the effect of Moringa leaf decoction on reducing blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes mellitus in Padaleu Village, Kambu District, Kendari City. The study employs a quantitative pre-experimental design using a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The population consists of 35 diabetes mellitus patients, with 17 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Blood glucose levels are measured before and after the administration of Moringa leaf decoction using a glucometer and observation sheets. Respondents receive 200 ml of Moringa leaf decoction daily for five consecutive days. Data analysis is conducted using paired statistical tests to determine differences in blood glucose levels before and after the intervention. The findings of this study are expected to provide scientific evidence regarding the effectiveness of Moringa leaf decoction as a non-pharmacological therapy for controlling blood glucose levels among diabetes mellitus patients. Furthermore, the results may contribute to nursing science development and serve as a reference for healthcare providers and future researchers in implementing complementary therapies for diabetes management.

Preeclampsia is one of the leading causes of maternal mortality and may result in various complications during pregnancy and childbirth. In Tegal Regency, preeclampsia contributed to 27% of maternal deaths in 2024; therefore, studies on childbirth characteristics among mothers with this condition are needed. This study aimed to identify the characteristics of childbirth events in mothers with preeclampsia at Dr. Soeselo Slawi Regional Hospital, Tegal Regency. A descriptive design with a retrospective approach was used by reviewing the medical records of 202 mothers who delivered with preeclampsia during 2025. Data were analyzed univariately and presented as frequency distributions and percentages. The results showed that most mothers underwent operative delivery (62.38%), while spontaneous and induced labor accounted for 37.13% and 0.50%, respectively. Most deliveries occurred at preterm gestational age (62.38%), followed by term (36.14%) and postterm (1.49%) deliveries. Maternal and obstetric complications included bleeding (6.93%), fetal distress (4.95%), eclampsia (1.49%), and HELLP syndrome (0.99%). Most neonates had normal birth weight (82.18%) and did not require NICU care (95.05%), although low birth weight (17.82%) and NICU admission (4.95%) were still identified. The maternal clinical condition was dominated by blood pressure of 140–159/90–109 mmHg (75.74%). Proteinuria was found in 46.53% of respondents, with moderate proteinuria (+2) as the predominant category (38.30%). In conclusion, childbirth among mothers with preeclampsia was dominated by operative and preterm deliveries. These findings emphasize the importance of early detection and optimal management of preeclampsia to reduce maternal and neonatal complications and improve the quality of maternal-infant health services overall.

A chronic metabolic disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels due to insulin resistance or impaired insulin secretion is classified as type 2 diabetes mellitus. The prevalence of diabetes continues to rise each year and has become one of the major challenges in global health due to its potential to cause serious complications, such as cardiovascular disease, kidney failure, neuropathy, and vision impairment. In addition to pharmacological therapy, the use of herbal plants is increasingly being developed as a complementary therapy because they are considered safer, more readily available, and contain bioactive compounds with potential antidiabetic properties. This review article aims to assess the effectiveness of several herbal plants namely cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia), fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum), bitter melon (Momordica charantia), and moringa (Moringa oleifera) in aiding the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus based on various research findings. This study employs a literature review method by collecting and analyzing various national and international scientific publications related to the antidiabetic activity of these four plants. The review results indicate that all plants have potential as adjunct therapies for diabetes because they contain active compounds such as flavonoids, polyphenols, cinnamaldehyde, charantin, quercetin, trigonelline, and saponins, which can help reduce blood glucose levels, optimize cellular response to insulin, increase GLUT4 activity, and help minimize oxidative damage. Based on the study results, moringa and cinnamon plants demonstrated the most consistent effectiveness in contributing to blood sugar control in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Thus, these herbal plants have the potential to be used as complementary therapies in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus; however, their use must still adhere to proper dosing and should not replace primary medical therapy.

Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) such as Diabetes Mellitus and Gout pose a serious threat to the health of the elderly due to their often asymptomatic nature. Cost barriers hinder the elderly community from accessing laboratory services. This community service activity aims to improve health standards and early detection of NCDs through monitoring blood glucose and uric acid levels in the Generasi Kaleb community of the JKI Injil Kerajaan Church, Semarang. The Participatory Health Screening and Education method used includes health education, screening using the Point of Care Testing (POCT) tool, and personal consultation on the results. The service subjects were 50 elderly respondents. The examination results showed a prevalence of abnormal random blood glucose (GDS) of 8%, 32%, had high uric acid levels with a maximum value of 10.3 mg/dL. This activity successfully transformed the elderly's awareness from subjective perception to awareness based on objective data, and encouraged community independence in managing a healthy lifestyle to prevent further NCD complications. .

Preeclampsia is a pregnancy complication that significantly contributes to maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Globally, it affects approximately 3–8% of pregnancies and causes more than 70,000 maternal deaths each year. In Indonesia, preeclampsia accounts for around 30% of the 4,151 maternal deaths reported in 2024. In Padang City, there were 254 cases in 2023 and 129 cases in 2024, with Puskesmas Bungus having the highest prevalence (7.2% and 3.77%). This study aimed to analyze the association between body mass index (BMI), history of hypertension, and history of preeclampsia with the incidence of preeclampsia among pregnant women at Puskesmas Bungus, Padang. This study used a quantitative case-control design involving 50 cases and 50 controls. Data were analyzed using chi-square and logistic regression tests. The results showed significant associations between obesity (p=0.031; OR=2.897), history of preeclampsia (p=0.006; OR=13.821), and history of hypertension (p=0.002; OR=17.216) with the incidence of preeclampsia. Multivariate analysis identified history of hypertension as the most dominant factor associated with preeclampsia. This study concludes that obesity, history of hypertension, and history of preeclampsia are significant risk factors for preeclampsia among pregnant women. Strengthening early detection and routine antenatal care for high-risk pregnancies is necessary to reduce maternal complications associated with preeclampsia.

Diabetes Mellitus Type II is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels due to insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion. Globally, the number of people with diabetes in 2024 is estimated to reach 800 million, with more than 95% being Type II Diabetes Mellitus. At RSUD Prof. M. Yamin, SH Pariaman in 2025, there were 189 recorded cases of Type II Diabetes Mellitus without complications. The purpose of this scientific paper is to provide nursing care to a patient with Type II Diabetes Mellitus in the Internal Medicine Ward of RSUD Prof. M. Yamin, SH Pariaman. The method used is a case study with a nursing process approach, including observation, interviews, physical examination, and data collection from medical records. This study was conducted in the internal ward for 5 days, from February 6, 2026 to February 10, 2026, with the subject Mrs. N. The assessment results identified nine nursing problems: unstable blood glucose levels, acute pain, impaired skin/tissue integrity, ineffective peripheral perfusion, impaired physical mobility, sleep pattern disturbance, fatigue, risk of infection, and risk of nutritional deficit. The evaluation after 5 days of nursing care showed that five diagnoses were resolved, namely unstable blood glucose levels, ineffective peripheral perfusion, fatigue, risk of infection, and risk of nutritional deficit. Meanwhile, the other four diagnoses were not fully resolved but showed improvement. It is expected that the patient and family will maintain adherence to a healthy lifestyle, therapy, diet, and regular follow-up in order to prevent complications.

Knee septic arthritis is an orthopedic emergency that requires prompt and appropriate management to prevent permanent joint damage and systemic complications. Inflammatory markers such as erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) are commonly used for diagnosis and monitoring of treatment response; however, their prognostic value after surgical debridement remains variable. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the role of ESR, CRP, and platelet count as prognostic indicators following irrigation and/or surgical debridement in patients with knee septic arthritis. A literature search was conducted in January using PubMed, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, Wiley Online Library, SpringerLink, and Semantic Scholar, following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Study quality was assessed using the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) tools. Fifteen studies meeting the inclusion criteria were qualitatively analyzed. The findings indicate that elevated preoperative CRP levels and delayed postoperative CRP reduction are associated with unfavorable clinical outcomes, including failure of infection eradication and the need for repeat debridement. Although ESR is consistently elevated during the acute phase, its slower decline limits its short-term prognostic utility. Platelet count may increase as part of the systemic inflammatory response but shows inconsistent prognostic value.

Hydrocephalus is defined as active distension of the brain’s ventricular system, resulting from inadequate flow of cerebrospinal fluid from its site of production to its site of absorption into the systemic circulation. Hydrocephalus can affect anyone at any age; pediatric hydrocephalus affects 1 in 1,000 live births and is the most common cause of brain surgery in young patients. Hydrocephalus is a pathological condition characterized by abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) due to increased production, impaired flow, or reduced absorption. Ventricular enlargement occurs in response to increased CSF volume and can lead to structural damage to the brain parenchyma. This condition can be congenital or acquired. One key point in prenatal diagnosis is the differentiation between fetal hydrocephalus and non-hypertensive ventriculomegaly. The former qualifies for intrauterine treatment with good outcomes. However, the latter can result in either favorable or catastrophic outcomes due to a damaging etiology, as seen in viral infections such as Zika virus. For an accurate diagnosis, fetal MRI is performed to detect brain anomalies, in addition to fetal ultrasound (to detect common complications), karyotype testing, and TORCH testing (toxoplasma, rubella, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex). Obstetric management of fetal hydrocephalus depends on the gestational age at diagnosis and the presence of other anomalies. Treatment options include termination of pregnancy before the fetus is viable, placement of a ventriculoamniotic shunt, cephalocentesis before delivery, and/or cesarean section.

Typhoid fever during pregnancy can lead to complications such as uteroplacental infection, miscarriage, and vertical transmission, which causes neonatal typhoid. Typhoid fever is found worldwide and is highly prevalent in developing countries, particularly in tropical regions. It is estimated that there are 11–21 million cases per year and approximately 128,000–161,000 deaths per year; the majority of cases occur in Southeast Asia, South Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa. Salmonella typhi is a gram-negative bacterium capable of intracellular survival. Symptoms in typhoid patients vary among different groups. While pregnant women with typhoid are more likely to exhibit coughing, non-pregnant patients more frequently report nausea/vomiting compared to pregnant patients. The effects of typhoid fever on pregnancy result from prolonged high fever and poor general health, which can lead to miscarriage, preterm labor, and intrauterine fetal death, especially if the infection occurs during the first or second trimester. Morbidity and mortality rates may be higher in pregnant women. Pregnancy itself does not affect the course of the disease. Prevention of typhoid fever involves adopting a clean and healthy lifestyle, as well as receiving the typhoid vaccine. Two effective vaccines are available for typhoid fever. The live-attenuated oral vaccine (Ty21a) requires four doses, administered 48 hours apart, without concurrent use of antibiotics or antimicrobial medications. Due to reduced gastrointestinal motility in early pregnancy and frequent nausea and vomiting associated with symptomatic gastroesophageal reflux requiring acid-reducing therapy, we do not recommend the Ty21a oral vaccine for pregnant patients.

Introduction: Ramadan fasting is a religious practice observed by Muslims by abstaining from food and drink from dawn until sunset. These changes may increase the need for oral and dental healthcare. However, some Muslims still perceive that undergoing dental treatment while fasting may invalidate the fast, leading many patients to delay or avoid dental visits during Ramadan. Objective: This study aims to review and analyse various scientific literature regarding the safety and permissibility of dental procedures for patients who are observing fasting during Ramadan. Methods: This study used a narrative review method by searching scientific articles through PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar databases using keywords relevant to the research topic. Articles were selected based on predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: The review findings indicate that most dental procedures, such as local anaesthesia administration, scaling, restorative treatment, and tooth extraction, generally do not invalidate fasting as long as no material or fluid is intentionally swallowed. The use of suction devices, isolation of the treatment area, and proper scheduling of dental procedures are important factors in minimizing the risk of swallowing fluids during treatment. Conclusion: Most dental procedures can be safely performed on fasting patients while still considering both medical aspects and Islamic principles. Patient education regarding the safety of dental procedures during fasting should be improved to prevent delays in treatment and complications in oral health.

Pneumonia is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among children aged 0–18 years worldwide. Appropriate treatment is crucial for improving treatment outcomes and preventing complications and antibiotic resistance. This literature review aims to analyze treatment options for pneumonia in pediatric patients based on articles published in PubMed from 2024 to 2025. The method used involved searching for articles with the keywords “(Case Reports) AND (pneumonia) AND (in children)” using filters for free full text, case reports, English language, human subjects, and the 0–18-year-old age group. Of the 71 articles identified, 10 met the inclusion criteria. The review results indicate that pneumonia treatment in children is dominated by the use of antibiotics and supportive care. In cases of severe pneumonia and necrotizing pneumonia, intensive antimicrobial therapy, close monitoring, and management of complications are required. Modern diagnostic tests such as bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), rapid syndromic arrays, and metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) help identify pathogens more quickly and accurately, thereby allowing for more targeted therapy. Additionally, corticosteroids and immunoglobulins are used as adjunctive therapies in cases of severe inflammation. Accurate diagnosis and individualized therapy selection play a crucial role in improving clinical outcomes for pediatric pneumonia patients.
