“…Difficulty in cancer patients is an important complication of cancer and its treatment, contributing to worse health outcomes, increased risk of psychological comorbidities and increased utilization of health care services. [14] This study concludes that some drug addicts are directed at substance abuse for pain relief from chronic disease rather than behavioral disorders, which need special attention in preventing and treating addicts. More people are likely to become drug addicts because of psychosocial problems associated with chronic illness, but do not go to addiction treatment clinics or specialized help centers; Therefore, symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress play an important role in the propensity of people with epilepsy to abuse drugs.…”

Second stage, conducting interviews with experts to get a certainty value on the scale that the researcher uses. Then, build an expert system using prototype development methods and web-based applications. The third stage, implementation was carried out by getting Computer Technology student respondents. This research is a new domain for the NSC Surabaya Polytechnic which will implement an expert system by utilizing the Certainty Factor method in analyzing student stress levels through intelligent applications that will be implemented in the form of a website, with the calculation of Certainty Factors, the application can produce evidence or analysis that can be used. in changing the learning system.

Perawatan penderita kanker memiliki perbedaan dengan penyakit lain. Kondisi imunitas yang menurun karena pengobatan kemoterapi, perubahan peran karena tidak dapat bekerja dan penyesuaian kondisi tubuh post kemoterapi menurunkan kesehatan mental dan kualitas hidup secara keseluruhan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sekitar 632 penderita (82,3%) penderita kanker berada dalam kategori skor Quality of Life (QOL) di bawah rata-rata dan kualitas hidup penderita kanker dipengaruhi oleh gejala yang dilaporkan. Tingginya resiko stress yang berkepanjangan dan gangguan mental pada penderita kanker disebabkan salah satunya karena kurangnya dukungan dari masyarakat. Tindakan pencegahan perlu dilakukan untuk meminimalisir stress baik secara fisik dan mental. Selama ini dukungan yang diberikan kepada penderita kanker utamanya masih dari sesama penderita. Dukungan melalui Paguyuban Sehat yang beranggotakan Ibu PKK RW 5 Pacarkembang bagi penderita kanker diberikan melalui tiga aspek. Aspek yang pertama adalah pengetahuan, dimana pada Paguyuban Sehat akan diberikan informasi terkait kanker, perawatan penderita kanker setelah operasi dan saat pengobatan kemoterapi atau radiasi. Aspek kedua adalah sosial, dimana penguatan dukungan diberikan kepada penderita kanker. Aspek yang ketiga adalah spiritual dimana seseorang mencari makna, tujuan, dan koneksi ke kekuatan yang lebih tinggi, dan memungkinkan individu untuk berfungsi secara efektif menuju tujuan hidupnya. Hasil dari pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah dibentuknya kader Paguyuban Sehat yang sadar terhadap resiko kanker payudara dan kanker tiroid. Kader mendapatkan pengetahuan mengenai deteksi dini kanker payudara dan tiroid serta mampu untuk mempraktikan pemeriksaan payudara sendiri dan mengenali tanda-tanda tidak normal pada payudara dan leher.Kata Kunci : kanker; dukungan sosial; kualitas hidup; pemberdayaan Capacity Building for Paguyuban Sehat in PKK RW 5 Pacarkembang in Providing Social Support for Cancer PatientsABSTRACTTreatment of cancer patients is different from other diseases. Decreased immunity due to chemotherapy treatment, changing roles due to inability to work and adjustment to post chemotherapy conditions. decreases mental health and overall quality of life. The results showed that about 632 patients (82.3%) of cancer patients were in the category of Quality of Life (QOL) score below the average and the quality of life of cancer patients was affected by the reported symptoms. The high risk of prolonged stress and mental disorders in cancer patients is due in part to the lack of support from the community. Precautions need to be taken to minimize stress both physically and mentally. So far, the support given to cancer patients mainly comes from fellow sufferers. Support through Paguyuban Sehat for cancer patients is provided in three aspects. The first aspect is knowledge, where the Healthy Paguyuban will be given information related to cancer, treatment of cancer patients after surgery and during chemotherapy or radiation treatment. The second aspect is social, where strengthening support is given to cancer sufferers.

“…Psychosomatic disease is de ned as any physical pathological condition with organic or functional damage that is affected by psychological factors during onset or development (1). Despite a high frequency and degree of psychological factors in cancer patients, such as psychological stress (2,3), to our knowledge, there have not been any high-quality studies that report the frequency of psychosomatic-prone organic or functional damage in cancer patients. Such investigations may help raise awareness of psychosomatic-prone organic or functional damage in cancer patients.…”

Background Few studies have reported psychosomatic-prone functional damage in cancer patients. Because psychosomatic diseases are pathological conditions, it is difficult to identify their degrees. The armchair sign is a test used to assess voluntary muscle relaxation. This study aimed to evaluate the frequency of psychosomatic-prone functional damage in cancer patients and its association with the armchair sign. Methods This was a secondary analysis of a prospective, multicenter, observational clinical study. We evaluated the frequency of psychosomatic-prone myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) in patients with incurable cancer who were at the start of palliative care and how it is associated with the armchair sign. Moreover, we assessed the usefulness of the armchair sign for the diagnosis of psychosomatic-prone MPS. Results A total of 101 patients were enrolled from March 2018 to December 2018, of whom 44 met MPS diagnostic criteria. Of these, 27 patients (61.3%) had psychosomatic-prone MPS. There was a significant association between the armchair sign and psychosomatic-prone MPS (p = 0.002). Sensitivity and specificity were 40.7% (95% confidence interval: 18.0–63.4) and 100.0%, respectively. The area under the curve score was 0.704 (95% confidence interval: 0.553–0.855). Conclusions MPS in patients with incurable cancer has a high frequency of psychosomatic pathology. The armchair sign may be useful as an ancillary test for the diagnosis of psychosomatic-prone MPS. Trial registration: UMIN000031338. Registered 16 February 2018.
