One of the indicators based on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs 2030) is to support welfare and ensure a healthy life for all at all ages with the most important point being to reduce maternal mortality to less than 70 per 100,000 live births and prevent neonatal and toddler mortality rates of at least 12 per 1000 live births and 25 per 1000 live births in toddlers. A study was conducted to determine the effect of giving red guava juice on changes in hemoglobin levels in pregnant women in the third trimester at PMB Debby Deliserdang in 2022. In this study, the sample used was all pregnant women in the third trimester in March to May 2022, totaling 12 people. The study showed that in the intervention group before giving red guava juice, the majority had moderate anemia with a frequency of 8 respondents (66.7%) and a minority were normal with a frequency of 1 respondent (8.3%). Meanwhile, after giving red guava juice, the majority were normal with a frequency of 7 respondents (53.8%) and a minority of moderate anemia as much as 1 respondent (8.3%). The results of the analysis test in this study using Mann Whithney showed a P-Value of 0.022 (P <0.05), namely that there is an effect of giving red guava juice on increasing hemoglobin in pregnant women in the second trimester. Pregnant women, especially pregnant women who experience anemia, are expected to routinely consume red guava juice because if consumed properly, red guava juice has many benefits, especially for pregnant women so that it can meet the nutritional needs required by the body and can maximize iron absorption.

Midwives are one of the health workers in reducing maternal and infant mortality rates by providing continuous midwifery services, promotion through partnerships and empowering communities with other health workers. The sample in this study was 24 pregnant women in the second and third trimesters consisting of 12 respondents for the control group and 12 respondents for the intervention group. The time of the study was May to June at the Negri Lama Health Center in 2022. The time of the study was May to June at the Negri Lama Health Center in 2022. The results of the bivariate analysis test using Mann Whitney showed a P-Value of 0.022 (P <0.05) so Ho was rejected, which means that there is a significant effect of giving dates on increasing hemoglobin in pregnant women in the second trimester. Pregnant women, especially pregnant women who experience anemia, are expected to routinely consume iron tablets and dates because if consumed properly, dates have many benefits, especially for pregnant women and dates do not have side effects on the fetus or mother so that they can meet the nutritional needs required by the body and can maximize iron absorption.

One of the government's steps to reduce maternal and infant mortality rates starts from adolescence by giving blood-boosting tablets to pregnant women Anemia is defined as a low hemoglobin (Hb) concentration in the blood. The high coverage of giving 90 Fe tablets to pregnant women does not guarantee a reduction in anemia if adherence to Fe tablets is still low. The research aims to determine the relationship between the level of compliance with the consumption of Fe tablets and the incidence of anemia in third trimester pregnant women. The observational research design uses a cross-sectional design. The research sample of third trimester pregnant women at Bhayangkara Banjarmasin Hospital consisted of 25 respondent. Sampling used Random Sampling technique. Data analysis includes univariate analysis and bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square statistical test. The statistical test results showed that there was a relationship between the level of compliance with the consumption of Fe tablets and the incidence of anemia in pregnant women in the third trimester at Bhayangkara Hospital, Banjarmasin. The lower the mother's level of compliance with taking Fe tablets, the greater the risk of developing anemia. The results of this study were that the majority of respondents studied had non-compliance in consuming blood supplement tablets (28%) and respondents who experienced anemia were (72%). The result was a p value <0.01, so there was a relationship between adherence to iron consumption and anemia. Respondents who did not comply with iron consumption had a 25.0 times greater risk of anemia. The conclusion in this study is that there is a relationship between compliance with Fe tablet consumption in TM III pregnant women and the incidence of anemia at Bhayangkara Banjarmasin Hospital.

Anemia is a condition of hemoglobin (Hb) levels in the blood (Hb<11gr/dl) which is caused by a lack of nutrients needed for the formation of Hb. In Indonesia, most anemia is caused by a lack of iron (Fe), so it is called iron deficiency anemia or iron nutritional anemia. Pregnant women are a group that is vulnerable to nutritional problems, especially iron deficiency anemia. Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) is still a public health problem due to its high prevalence and impact on the health of mothers and babies. The high prevalence of ADB affects almost all age groups in society. One community group that has a high prevalence of ADB is pregnant women (Ani, 2018). This type of research is analytical observational research using a cross sectional approach, namely to analyze the factors that influence the incidence of anemia in pregnant women in the third trimester of the UPTD Peureulak Health Center, East Aceh Regency, Aceh Province in 2024. Based on the results of the initial survey conducted by researchers at the UPTD Peureulak Health Center, East Aceh Regency, Aceh Province in 2024, it was found that of the 5 pregnant women whose hemoglobin was measured, 2 people had anemia. So from this description, the author is interested in conducting research on "Factors that Influence the Incidence of Anemia in Pregnant Women in the Third Trimester of UPTD Peureulak Health Center, East Aceh Regency, Aceh Province in 2024".

Anemia in adolescent girls is a common health problem that can affect their quality of life. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of consuming eggs and iron (Fe) tablets in increasing hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls with anemia at Puskesmas Ciputat in 2023. This research employs a quantitative design with a quasi-experimental approach and a One Group Pretest and Posttest method. The sample consisted of 60 adolescent girls, divided into two groups: the intervention group (30 participants) consumed 1 boiled egg and an Fe tablet daily for 14 days, while the control group (30 participants) only consumed Fe tablets. Hemoglobin levels were measured before and after the intervention. The results showed a significant increase in hemoglobin levels in the intervention group compared to the control group. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of combining egg consumption with Fe tablets as a strategy to address anemia in adolescent girls, which could be an alternative solution for public health programs at Puskesmas Ciputat

Given that these substances' levels are essential for informing medicalpersonnel about the body's reaction to the different treatments beingadministered, this study was planned to assessment some physiologicalvariations to infants infected with hyperbilirubinemia. This will help themedical staff manage the condition properly with lower morbidity andmortality. In this study, 60 patients and 40 healthy controls (clinicallyevaluated by a specialist physician) are selected from males who are only1 year old. This study conducted in Al-hussein medical city Hospital inKarbala city. This study showed that significant decrease in weight,hemoglobin and packed cell volume in patients in comparison withhealthy, while noted significant increase in total white blood cells inpatients comparison with healthy, while showed there are insignificantchange in red blood cells and platelet.

Around 41.8% of pregnant women around the world experience anemia. The prevalence of anemia in pregnant women in the world is estimated at around 57.1% in Africa, 48.2% in Asia, 25.1% in Europe and 24.1% in America. The results of Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) in 2013, the prevalence of anemia in pregnant women in Indonesia was around 37.1%, with hemoglobin levels < 11.0 g/dL approaching the proportion between urban areas 36.4% and rural areas 37.8%. Based on the 2001 Household Health Survey (SKRT), the prevalence of anemia in pregnant women was 40.1%. Meanwhile, the 2004 DKI Jakarta survey showed that the prevalence rate of anemia in pregnant women was 43.5%. The general aim of this research was to determine differences in hemoglobin levels in pregnant women in the first, second and third trimesters at the Gebang Health Center, Langkat Regency in 2024. Hemoglobin examination in pregnant women aims to To find out whether the mother is experiencing blood deficiency or not, namely by checking hemoglobin levels during pregnancy. The method is quantitative research with an analytical survey method using a cross sectional design, namely, a study that concerns risk factors using a retrospective approach. Analysis shows that there are differences in hemoglobin levels in the first, second and third trimesters. The average hemoglobin levels in the first trimester (11.7 g/dL) and II (11.0 g/dL) were still within normal limits, while the hemoglobin in the third trimester (10.2 g/dL) was abnormal. Hemoglobin levels < 11.0 g/dL in pregnant women can be said to be anemia, whereas if hemoglobin levels in pregnant women are > 11.0 g/dL it is not said to be anemia. So it can be seen that hemoglobin levels in the third trimester are lower than hemoglobin levels in the first and second trimesters. Pregnant women are expected to be able to check their pregnancy by carrying out an HB examination.

Anemia is a condition experienced by the body when red blood cells have hemoglobin levels less than the normal limit (<12 gr/dl). Adolescent groups, especially young women, are susceptible to anemia because they menstruate every month. One of the factors causing anemia in adolescent girls is poor nutritional status. Wrong eating habits, such as being lazy about eating and liking to eat fast food instead of home-cooked food, cause insufficient nutrition, thus affecting the nutritional status of young women. The aim of this research is to determine the relationship between Body Mass Index (BMI) and hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls.  This type of quantitative research uses a cross sectional method. The population is 406 young women from the Mamboro Community Health Center Area High School. The sample was 89 female students with a sampling technique, namely cluster random sampling. Data analysis uses the Chi Square test. The results of the study showed that the majority of young women with BMI were thin at 56.2% and there was a relationship between BMI and hemoglobin levels of young women with a P-Value of 0.000 <0.1. The conclusion of the study is that there is a relationship between BMI and hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls.

Iron anemia is the biggest macro nutritional problem in Indonesia, which occurs in toddlers, pregnant women and adolescent girls. Adolescent girls with anemia are at risk of giving birth to LBW babies (<2500 grams), giving birth to premature babies, neonatal infections and death in the baby's mother during delivery. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between screen time and sleep quality with hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls.  This research method uses quantitative observational research with a cross-sectional design and a sample size of 76 respondents using a purposive sampling technique. The results of this study show that 55 respondents (72.4%) had normal hemoglobin levels and 21 respondents (27.6%) had poor hemoglobin levels. The bad screen time category was 40 respondents (52.6%) and the good one was 36 respondents (47.4%). And the category of poor sleep quality was 57 respondents (75.0%) and good sleep quality was 19 respondents (25%). The results of this study showed that there was no relationship between screen time and sleep quality and hemoglobin levels in young women at SMA Karya Bakti and SMKN 6 Palu.  

Background: Infants born with Low Birth Weight (LBW) are a significant factor contributing to stunting in children under five. Therefore, a system is needed for early detection of LBW. To develop an accurate system, accurate variables are necessary. Descriptive research on the determinants of LBW based on maternal history is crucial. Objective: To identify the determinants of LBW from maternal history as a basis for developing Fuzzy Logic Method technology. Method: This quantitative study employs a descriptive analytic approach. Results: SPSS data analysis indicates a relationship between LBW and gestational age (p-value: 0.001), parity (p-value: 0.008), Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) (p-value: 0.758), hemoglobin levels (p-value: 0.021), and pregnancy risk (p-value: 0.001). Conclusion: The independent variables significantly associated with LBW are gestational age, parity, anemia status from hemoglobin data, and pregnancy risk status. Conversely, MUAC is not significantly associated with LBW.

Adolescent girls are a vulnerable group to experience anemia, if there are no prevention efforts, awareness among adolescents about the problem of anemia will affect problems in growth and development, both physically and academically. The main cause of anemia is insufficient intake of iron which cannot be obtained without only by taking blood-boosting drugs but this can be done by consuming a variety of foods that fulfill the nutrients containing iron, vitamins to prevent anemia, where teenagers nowadays pay less attention to healthy food intake. The purpose of this community service is to increase the level of student knowledge/ students through education about anemia, knowing the risk factors for anemia in adolescents, knowing the physical characteristics or symptoms and the consequences that arise from anemia and providing education about the treatment of anemia in addition to using pharmacological drugs, one of which is by consuming foods that contain Contains vitamins and iron to increase Hemoglobin levels in the blood. The activity method consists of three, namely planning, implementation and evaluation. This counseling was carried out offline at SMKN 1 Rembang with 40 students. Based on the results of the pre-test and post-test, it can be concluded that there was an increase in students' knowledge about anemia prevention and non-pharmacological management. increasing knowledge of young women before and after education

Anemia is a condition where the hemoglobin (Hb) level in the blood is lower than normal. In general, the factors that cause anemia in young women are lack of knowledge regarding balanced nutritional intake patterns, restrictions on food consumption, and non-compliance with consuming blood supplement tablets (TTD). The aim of this research was to determine the effect of anemia education using monomia media (Monopoly Anemia) on the knowledge of female students at SMA Negeri 5 OKU. This type of research is quantitative research using the Pre-Experimental method with a One Group Pre Test and Post Test Design, collecting data by conducting pre-tests and post-tests and providing education with the monomia game (Monopoly Anemia). The total sample was 30 young women. Data analysis in the study used Univariate and Bivariate analysis using the Wilcoxon test to determine the effect of anemia education using monomia media (Monopoly Anemia) on the knowledge of female students at SMA Negeri 5 OKU. The research results showed that the average percentage of Pre-test knowledge was in the poor category, 17 female students (56.7%), while the average post-test knowledge was in the good category, 30 female students (100%). There was an effect of providing education using monomia (Monopoly Anemia) (p= 0.000). In this study it can be concluded that there was an increase in knowledge between the Pre Test and Post Test after being given education using monomia (Monopoly Anemia) to female students at SMA Negeri 5 OKU. It is recommended that teenagers increase their knowledge about anemia by seeking information on the prevention and control of anemia.

Anemia in pregnant women is a serious health problem in Indonesia, with a prevalence of 48.9% based on the 2018 Riskesdas data. This condition can have negative impacts on the health of both the mother and the fetus, such as increased risks of premature birth, low birth weight babies, and maternal and infant mortality. Anemia in pregnant women is generally caused by deficiencies in iron, folic acid, and vitamin B12. This community service activity aims to educate the public about preventing anemia among pregnant women, conducted at the Dahlia Posyandu in the working area of Puskesmas Ariodillah Palembang. The activities include outreach on the signs, symptoms, causes, and prevention of anemia, as well as hemoglobin (Hb) level examinations for early detection of anemia. The methods used are interactive socialization and health examinations, involving posyandu cadres and the surrounding community. The examination results indicate that no pregnant women were found to be anemic, and participants’ knowledge of anemia increased by 95% after attending the outreach. This activity is expected to raise public awareness of the importance of anemia prevention and health during pregnancy. Recommendations for follow-up programs include ongoing education, improving access to health services, and attention to the health of the elderly in the area.

Anemia in pregnancy is known to occur in pregnant women when iron levels in their blood are low. Pregnant women are said to have anemia if their hemoglobin (Hb) level is <11 grams/dl in the first and third trimesters of pregnancy, in contrast to the second trimester hemoglobin (HB) level <10.5 grams/dl. The aim of the research was to determine the relationship between third trimester pregnant women's knowledge about anemia and compliance with consuming Fe tablets at the Namrole Care Health Center in 2023. This research was quantitative in nature with an analytical survey with a cross sectional research design, which was conducted in the Namrole Maluku Health Center Work Area. The population in this study were all 32 pregnant women in the third trimester. The sampling technique used is Total Sampling. Bivariate analysis uses the Chi Square test with a confidence level of 95%. shows that the p value = 0.000 which means less than A = 0.005, so it can be concluded that there is a significant relationship between the knowledge of third trimester pregnant women about anemia and compliance with consuming Fe tablets at the Namrole Nursing Community Health Center, Kec. Medan Johor in 2023.

Background: Anemia is a body condition where the hemoglobin level in red blood cells is lower than the normal standard. Pregnant women are said to be anemic if their Hb content is <11gr/dL. According to WHO, the prevalence of pregnant women throughout the world who experience anemia is 41.8%. The percentage of anemia in pregnant women in Indonesia is 37.1%. For the Special Region of Yogyakarta, the prevalence in pregnant women is 19.01%, and the highest incidence of anemia is in Bantul Regency (27.67%). Data from the Bantul District Health Service, from 27 Community Health Centers, there are 5 Community Health Centers with the highest number of anemia, namely at Sewon II Community Health Center. From this data, Sewon II Community Health Center is in second place. Objective: To determine the effectiveness of consuming fe tablets with lime juice on increasing Hb levels in mildly anemic pregnant women at the Sewon II Bantul Community Health Center, Yogyakarta. Method: This quasi-experiment research uses a one group pretest-posttest design. The sample in the study consisted of 30 pregnant women. The sampling technique uses total sampling. The research instrument gave lime to pregnant women with mild anemia for 2 weeks. Then the hemoglobin level was checked before and after drinking lime using a hemoglobin meter checking device in collaboration with the Puskesmas lab section. Results: The results of this research are based on univariate analysis of the characteristics of respondents aged 20-35 years as many as 26 (86.3%) respondents, the majority have a high school education as many as 26 (86.7%) respondents, the occupation of respondents is housewives 28 (93.3%) ) respondents. The results of the bivariate analysis showed that there was a significant effect on the average value of increasing hemoglobin levels before (10.21) and after drinking lime (11.23) with an average of (1.02). Conclusion: Based on the research results, it can be concluded that there is an effect of giving lime juice on hemoglobin levels in pregnant women in the second trimester at the Sewon II Bantul Community Health Center.

Adolescents are a group aged 10-18 years who need various nutrients. Adolescents need more nutrients, because it is a transition period from childhood to adulthood. Assessment and monitoring of adolescent nutritional status needs to be done to prevent nutritional and health problems in adulthood. This community service was carried out on 11 female adolescents who were willing to undergo nutritional status screening. The activities to be carried out include measuring hemoglobin (Hb) levels, measuring upper arm circumference (LiLA), and providing education about adolescent nutrition. The results of the activity obtained an increase in participant knowledge about nutritional status after being given education, there were 2 participants who had anemia with Hb examination results <12g/dL and there were 3 participants who had LiLa <23.5 cm. Participants already understand and are able to perform Hb examinations using the Easy Touch GCHb tool and LiLA measurements.

Anemia throughout maternity describes a reduced focus of hemoglobin (Hb) in the blood particularly much less than 11 grams (gm)/ deciliter (dl) in venous blood. This problem influences a worrying 1.62 billion individuals globally with establishing nations dealing with a specifically high worry. In these areas anemia is a considerable factor to both mother's and also youngster morbidity and also death making up 20% of mother's fatalities. In addition it is approximated that virtually 50% of the international populace is contaminated with Helicobacter pylori (HP) a germs understood to create different health and wellness concerns. Remarkably the occurrence of HP infection amongst expectant ladies is greater in establishing nations contrasted to industrialized ones. Nonetheless the connection in between HP infection as well as the incident of anemia continues to be uncertain especially in Tikrit city. Consequently the goal of this research study was to check out the organization in between anemia as well as Helicobacter pylori infection amongst expecting ladies participating in Tikrit city.

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is the most common metabolic disorder worldwide. DM is the most common chronic illness in adults. It is estimated that 300 million people will have DM by 2025, and it will reach approximately 439 million and the prevalence is estimated to be 7.7% by 2030. The decrease of blood glucose levels in patients with DM decreases the mortality and morbidity rates significantly.Objective: To identify the potential risk factors of poor glycemic control among patients having type2 Diabetes mellitus in Al-diwaniya city. Methods: A total of 340 patients were included in the study. This was cross sectional study conducted in the Diabetes  Center at Al-diwaniya city, Iraq, from period of 1st of February to the 1st September2023. Based on the cutoff point of Glycosylated hemoglobin of 7, the poor control were the patients with (Glycosylated hemoglobin is ≥ 7) and the good control were the diabetic patient with Glycosylated hemoglobin is <7. A questionnaire developed to gather the demographic, lipid profile, disease characteristics and lifestyles behaviors and filled by the researcher through direct interview. Results: The total number of poor controls was 221 and the good control was 119 patients. There was no significant difference between the two groups regarding sex, age, marital status and occupation. A significant association was observed between the control status and high education level (p=0.001) dyslipidemia (p=0.001), cholesterol level (P=0.002), high TG level (p<0.001), and LDL level (p=0.025). Smoking, Body Mass Index and HDL level were not significant factors (p>0.005). All disease characteristics including the duration, family history of DM, FBS, type of medication were significant factors (p<0.001). Lifestyles  behaviors including  self-monitoring, healthy diet, physical activity, and adherence were significant factors (p<0.001). Conclusion: The most important potential risk factors for poor control diabetes were dyslipidemia, poor adherence and longer duration of diabetes. Enhancement of education of the patients and their healthcare providers on these factors are great benefit in glycemic control.

Anemia is estimated to affect half a billion women aged 15-49 years and 269 million children aged 6-59 months worldwide. The high prevalence of anemia among teenagers, if not handled properly, will continue into adulthood and will contribute greatly to maternal mortality rates, premature babies and babies with low birth weight. Meanwhile, the immediate impact of anemia in school-aged adolescents causes a lack of concentration and decreased learning achievement. An alternative solution to meet iron needs, many foods contain sources of Fe as a way to prevent and control the incidence of anemia. Eggs are one of the foods that contain Fe. Pre- experimental research with one group pretest posttest design with a population of all young women who experienced signs of anemia at SMA Negeri 07, sample 20. Statistical tests used the Paried Sample t-test. There was an increase in Hb levels in adolescent girls by 1.47gr/dl. The results of the paired t-test obtained a p value = value 0.000 (p <0.05). There is an effect of giving boiled eggs on increasing hemoglobin levels in young women at SMA Negeri 07 OKU  

Type 2 diabetes mellitus represents a persistent metabolic dysfunction marked by elevated blood glucose levels attributable to insulin resistance. Geriatrics pertains specifically to individuals aged 60 years and older. Managing diabetes mellitus necessitates intricate therapeutic interventions, often comprising single or combined pharmacological agents aimed at achieving euglycemia. The concurrent administration of multiple medications, termed polypharmacy, amplifies the likelihood of pharmacological interactions. This investigation endeavors to delineate potential drug interactions observed in geriatric inpatients afflicted with type 2 diabetes mellitus at Dr. Moewardi Regional General Hospital in Surakarta throughout the calendar year 2023. The study adopted a descriptive observational design employing a cross-sectional approach. Data collection was conducted retrospectively through purposive sampling based on the medical records of geriatric patients at Dr. Moewardi Regional General Hospital in Surakarta. Inclusion criteria encompassed patients aged 60 years and older diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus who had been hospitalized. Exclusion criteria included incomplete or illegible medical records, patients diagnosed with anemia and hemoglobinopathies, and those who expired during treatment. The findings revealed that out of 100 patients, 96 experienced drug interactions. Most patients (47.00%) were aged between 66 and 74 years. Females constituted a larger proportion (51.00%) of the patient cohort. Among hospitalized patients, 83 (83.00%) were admitted for 2-6 days. A total of 70 patients (70.00%) were prescribed between 4 and 13 medications. The predominant severity level of drug interactions was moderate, comprising 1,017 cases (74.60%). Pharmacodynamic mechanisms accounted for most drug interactions observed, totaling 1,054 cases (77.30%).
