Dysmenorrhea is caused by hormonal imbalances that trigger lower abdominal pain, which may radiate to the suprapubic region, lower back, medial thighs, and perineum. Dysmenorrhea typically occurs 1–2 days before or during menstruation, causing disruptions in concentration and increased anxiety. Non-pharmacological management of dysmenorrhea with SJKT (Lemongrass, Ginger, Turmeric, Curcuma Xanthorrhiza) formulations, containing gingerol, shogaol, essential oils, flavonoids, polyphenols, and curcumin exerts analgesic effects that are effective in reducing pain. To analyze the effectiveness of SJKT formulations in reducing menstrual pain associated with dysmenorrhea. A true experimental design with a two-group pretest-posttest control group design was employed. The intervention group received SJKT formulations, while the control group consumed young coconut water, 300 ml/day for 4 days. The Wilcoxon test for the intervention group yielded a p-value of 0.001, while the control group had a p-value of 0.157. The Mann-Whitney test produced a p-value of 0.022, showing a significant difference between the two groups, as the SJKT formulation is more effective in reducing dysmenorrhea pain compared to young coconut water. SJKT formulation effectively reduces dysmenorrhea pain. Further studies could involve larger samples for more comprehensive results.

Survival Outcomes in Invasive Candidiasis: Exploring the Role of Chronic Disease Prevention and Healthy Lifestyle in Malaysia

2025-03-11T03:16:20+00:00

Invasive candidiasis (IC) is a life-threatening fungal infection, particularly prevalent among patients with non-communicable diseases (NCDs). The rising incidence of NCDs in Malaysia poses a significant challenge to IC management and patient survival. Objective of this study was to determine the median survival time of IC patients in Malaysia and explore the relationship between survival outcomes, chronic disease prevention.

This retrospective cohort study analyzed data from 445 patients diagnosed with IC at a tertiary hospital in Malaysia. Data on sociodemographics, comorbidities, clinical presentation, Candida species, treatment and patients outcome were collected and analysed using Kaplan-Meier survival estimates.

The median survival time for IC patients was 21 days, with significant variations based on age, ethnicity, and comorbidities. Patients with diabetes on insulin therapy exhibited a lower mortality risk, likely due to better glycemic control and higher health-seeking behavior. Candida parapsilosis infections were associated with higher survival rates, while Candida glabrata and Candida tropicalis infections were linked to poorer outcomes. These findings highlight the importance of tailored treatment strategies that consider patient comorbidities and the specific Candida species involved. Integrating preventive measures for NCDs and promoting healthy lifestyle practices are crucial for improving IC patient survival

Anemia in pregnancy is a condition in which the mother has a hemoglobin level below 11 gr% in the first and third trimesters or a level of <10.5 gr% in the second trimester. The limit value and its difference with the condition of non-pregnant women is hemodilution, especially in the second trimester. Sulistyawati (2019). Anemia in pregnant women is generally caused by physiological changes during pregnancy and is influenced by malnutrition. The anemia that is often found in pregnancy is due to iron deficiency. This occurs because of the increased need for iron to supply the fetus and placenta, in order to enlarge tissue and red blood cell mass. The impact of anemia on pregnant women can cause obstacles to fetal growth, both body cells and brain cells, abortion, long labor due to lack of uterine thrust, bleeding, and infection (Septiyaningsih R, Indratmoko S, 2019).

Management of Anemia in Pregnant Women with Non-Pharmacological Methods: Literature Review

2025-03-13T04:19:09+00:00

Pregnancy is a physiological process in a woman. A pregnant woman will
experience changes in her body system during pregnancy. Pregnant women will be
susceptible to anemia due to several things such as hemodilution and lack of iron
intake. Anemia is included in a global problem which in Indonesia itself has a
relatively high incidence rate, namely 48.9% in 2018, so an effective strategy is
needed to overcome this problem. The aim of this research is to determine the non-
pharmacological management of anemia in pregnancy. The method used was a
literature review of 10 research articles contained in computerized databases
(Google Scholar and Wiley) in the last 5 years using the keywords anemia, anemia
management, non-pharmacology and pregnancy. As a result, non-pharmacological
treatment of pregnancy with anemia can be done by consuming tomato herbal tea,
chayote, mung bean juice, vegetable juice combined with various other ingredients
such as spinach-lime-honey juice, dates, tempeh, and jackfruit seed milk, because
the high vitamin C and iron contained in it make it a good source of nutrients to
increase hemoglobin production and maintain body health. The conclusion is,
vitamin C and iron are an ideal combination of compounds to overcome anemia in
pregnant women, because iron helps the production of hemoglobin and vitamin C
increase iron absorption, thereby helping to overcome and prevent anemia and
improve the health of the mother and fetus
