The Effect of Acupressure and Foot Hydrotherapy Using Red Ginger (Zingiber officinale var rubrum) on the Blood Pressure of Pregnant Women with Preeclampsia at Kembaran I Health Center
No full textHypertension in pregnancy, particularly preeclampsia, remains a significant health issue due to its potential risks to maternal and fetal health. Despite advances in medical management, there is a need for complementary interventions to address this condition effectively. This study investigates the impact of Acupressure and Foot Hydrotherapy interventions utilizing red ginger (Zingiber officinale var. rubrum) on reducing blood pressure in pregnant women with preeclampsia at the Kembaran I Health Center. The study employs a quantitative experimental design involving 15 pregnant women diagnosed with preeclampsia. Participants were selected through non-probability sampling based on inclusion criteria: gestational age of ≥20 weeks and Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) ˃90 mmHg. Blood pressure was measured using a digital sphygmomanometer before and after the intervention, while an observation sheet recorded the systolic, diastolic, and MAP values. Data analysis was conducted using Paired Samples Correlations and paired sample t-tests to assess the intervention's effectiveness.Results reveal that Acupressure combined with Foot Hydrotherapy using red ginger significantly reduces blood pressure in preeclamptic women. This is evidenced by the t-test value exceeding the critical t-table value at a 5% significance level and degrees of freedom ( ), specifically 2.145. Additionally, the analysis demonstrates a high correlation between pre- and post-intervention blood pressure parameters, indicating consistent effectiveness of the therapy. This research underscores the potential of integrating complementary interventions, such as Acupressure and Foot Hydrotherapy with red ginger, into maternal healthcare protocols to manage preeclampsia and improve maternal outcomes. Further studies with larger samples are recommended to validate these findings and explore broader applications

THE INFLUENCE OF HEALTH EDUCATION ON BREAST SELF-EXAMINATION (BSE) KNOWLEDGE FOR EARLY DETECTION OF BREAST CANCER IN WOMEN OF REPRODUCTIVE AGE
Full text linkBreast cancer is one of the main causes of death in women throughout the world. A total of 2.3 million women were diagnosed with breast cancer and 670,000 deaths worldwide. Early detection is very important to increase the success of treatment, one of which is breast self-examination (BSE). However, there are still many suburban age women who lack knowledge about BSE. Therefore, this study aims to determine the effect of health education about BSE on increasing knowledge of early breast cancer detection in suburban-age women in the Garung Community Health Center working area. This study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample consisted of 5 women of childbearing age who were selected using the Accidental Sampling Technique. The research results showed that there was a significant increase in the level of knowledge of respondents after being given BSE health education. Before the intervention, only 20% of respondents had a good level of knowledge, while after the intervention, this figure increased to 100%. The Wilcoxon test shows a p value of 0.043 (0.05), which indicates that there is a significant influence of health education on increasing respondents' knowledge. Health education about BSE has a positive effect on increasing knowledge of early detection of breast cancer in women of childbearing age

The Effect of Green Tea Extract Supplementation on Superoxide Dismutase Levels and Endometriosis Lesions: A Clinical Trial in Mice
Full text linkEndometriosis is a gynaecological disorder characterised by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. It affects approximately 10-15% of females of reproductive age. Oxidative stress has been identified as a significant contributing factor to the development and progression of endometriosis. In this study, we investigated the effect of green tea extract on the endometriotic implant area and serum superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels in a rat model of endometriosis. Twenty-six female Balb/c rats were randomly divided into the experimental group (EG) and the control group (CG). All subjects in the EG received green tea extract (3 mg daily) for 14 days. On the fourteenth day, endometriosis was induced in all subjects (both EG and CG). The endometriotic implant area and serum SOD levels were assessed 14 days after induction. The endometriotic implant area in the green tea extract-treated group was significantly lower than that in the control group (p=0.022, RR=0.455, 95% CI=0.065-0.96). Serum SOD levels in the EG and CG were 5.33±0.52 ng/ml and 5.20±0.91 ng/ml, respectively (p=0.507). Green tea extract effectively inhibited the progression of endometriotic implants and increased serum SOD levels in the endometriosis-induced rat model. These findings suggest that the anti-angiogenic and antioxidant properties of green tea may have therapeutic potential in managing endometriosis
