Objective This study aimed to analyse the effects of green tea in inhibiting uterine atrophy and vascular changes due to the use of depot medroxy progesterone acetate (DMPA). Methods Twenty-five female Wistar rats aged one to two months were randomly assigned to five treatment groups: control group, DMPA-induced group, and DMPA-induced group orally treated with green tea extract (at 10.8 mg/day, 21.6 mg/day, or 43.2 mg/day). Histologic analysis of uterine and vascular tissues was performed with haematoxylin-eosin staining. Results DMPA decreased the thickness of endometrium and tunica adventitia, as well as significantly decreased endothelial cell count ( p < 0.05). DMPA-induced decreases in the thickness of tunica adventitia and endothelial cell count could be significantly inhibited by green tea extract ( p < 0.05). Conclusion This study concluded that DMPA triggered the depletion of uterine endometrium and vascular tunica adventitia and decreased endothelial cell count. Green tea extract at the highest dose normalized tunica adventitia and endothelial changes to the basal value.

Labor pain is a combination of physical pain due to myometrial contractions accompanied by stretching of the lower segment of the uterus fused with the psychological condition of the mother during labor. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of deep breathing relax technique on labor pain intensity in the active phase. Quasi-experimental Research Design with pre and post test without control. The sample in this study were 16 people. Sampling with purposive sampling method. The results of the research distribution of respondents before Deep Breathing Relax was mostly felt severe pain and after being given Deep breathing relax treatment most respondents experienced moderate to mild pain with a paried t test value of P = 0.000 < ? 0.05 thus there is an effect of deep breathing relax technique on labor pain intensity in the active phase.

ISPA adalah penyakit saluran pernafasan akut yang meliputi saluran pernafasan bagian atas seperti rhinitis, fharingitis, dan otitis serta saluran pernafasan bagian bawah seperti laryngitis, bronchitis, bronchiolitis, dan pneumonia yang dapat berlangsung selama 14 hari. Batas waktu 14 hari diambil untuk menentukan batas akut dari penyakit tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan sanitasi fisik rumah yang meliputi ventilasi rumah, lantai, dinding serta atap rumah dan kebiasaan merokok dengan kejadian ISPA. Jenis penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian survei analitik dengan desain yang digunakan adalah rancangan case control dimana 27 responden berusia  > 20 tahun sebagai kasus dan 27 responden berusia > 20 tahun sebagai kontrol dengan total sampel sebanyak 54 responden. Teknik analisis data menggunakan statistik Chi square. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ada hubungan antara sanitasi fisik rumah dengan kejadian ISPA di Desa Alue Ie Mirah Kecamatan Pante Bidari Kabupaten Aceh Timur (P value = 0.000), sedangkan tidak ada hubungan antara kebiasaan merokok dengan kejadian ISPA di Desa Alue Ie Mirah Kecamatan Pante Bidari Kabupaten Aceh Timur (P value = 1.000).

Provinsi Aceh menduduki peringkat kedua penderita filariasis yaitu sebanyak 2.375 kasus. Sanitasi lingkungan dan perilaku sehat merupakan faktor paling berpengaruh terhadap kejadian filariasis karena berkaitan dengan perkembangbiakkan nyamuk yang merupakan vektor perantara. Kabupaten Aceh Tamiang merupakan salah satu daerah endemis filariasis dengan kasus pada tahun 2015 sebanyak 37 orang yang terdiri atas laki-laki 25 orang dan perempuan 12 orang dengan rentang usia dari 27 sampai dengan 77 tahun. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan sanitasi lingkungan dan perilaku sehat dengan kejadian filariasis di Kabupaten Aceh Tamiang tahun 2016. Desain penelitian cross sectional dengan sampel 100 orang diambil dengan cara proportional random sampling. Pengumpulan data menggunakan kuesioner dilakukan selama 12 hari dari tanggal 6-18 Juni 2016 di Wilayah Kabupaten Aceh Tamiang. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat ada hubungan yang signifikan antara sanitasi lingkungan (p = 0,007) dan perilaku sehat (p = 0,004) dengan kejadian filariasis. Penulis menyarankan agar Dinas Kesehatan bersama dengan petugas kesehatan lingkungan yang bertugas di seluruh Puskesmas di Kabupaten Aceh Tamiang untuk mempromosikan pendidikan kesehatan tentang filariasis dan mendorong masyarakat untuk meminum obat filariasis setiap tahun selama 5 tahun.

Children are the nation's assets in the future. It can be imagined, how would the condition of Indonesia's human resources be in the future if many Indonesian children are currently suffering from stunting. The incidence of short children or commonly known as stunting is one of the nutritional problems experienced by toddlers in the world today. In 2017 22.2% or around 150.8 million children under five in the world were stunted. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of the mentoring menu model on the growth and development of stunting children in Cinta Raja Village, East Langsa District. This type of research used in this research is quasi-experimental research (quasi experiment) with a pretest posttest design non equivalent control group design. In this study the researchers compared the two research groups with the number of respondents 34 children aged 24-60 months. There is a significant effect of menu assistance on the increase in the height of stunting of children under five in Cinta Raja Village, Langsa Timur District, Langsa City. there is a correlation between the increase in height before being given menu assistance (pretest) and after being given menu assistance (post test). It can be concluded that the increase in Height in the stunting and normal under-five group is significant. It is hoped that families who have children under five are able to provide a balanced nutrition family diet as long as the child is in a period of growth and development so as to prevent stunting.
