Background: Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the most widespread form of dementia. The present study analyses the effects of aromatherapy using Melissa Officinalis essential oil, applied by massage to the hands and forearms of patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease. and to evaluate the effect on their perceived overall quality of life. Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted in two nursing homes in Italy in 2018. Data were collected through individual qualitative structured interviews based on the Quality of Life in Alzheimer’s Disease (QoL-AD) questionnaire and the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE). The authors referred to STROBE guidelines for quality reporting of observational studies. Results: Treatment with Melissa Officinalis showed positive effects on all patients after the 12th week of treatment. The results were most evident in patients in class 3 MMSE. However, class 4 MMSE patients also benefited from the treatment. Conclusions: The aromatherapy treatment delivered in this observational study, using Melissa Officinalis essential oil applied to hands and forearms, showed an improvement in the quality of life of the patients living in two different nursing homes. Due to the small sample size in this study, it is suggested that more research be done on the effects and effectiveness of aromatherapy with Melissa Officinalis essential oil for Alzheimer's disease patients.

Active religious practice is central to the lives of Muslims. Few studies have examined how religious engagement by Muslims who are coping with cancer affects their psychological health during treatment. Objective: To determine how and the extent to which religion and spirituality are employed as coping mechanisms by Muslims through a literature review. Methods: The electronic Medline, Cinahl, Google Scholar, and PubMed databases were used to identify relevant articles. Grey literature, including websites, was also looked over. Studies including patients with cancer of all types and stages were included. Results: Eight articles were included in the review. Key topics of interest were how the characteristics of Muslim religiosity and spirituality are involved in coping with cancer, including whether they further enable a Muslim to give meaning to cancer, how cancer affects the religious beliefs of Muslim patients with cancer, and whether religion influences treatment considerations. Conclusion: Religion and spirituality are crucial for Muslim patients to find meaning in cancer, and both are used as primary means of coping. Thus, nurses must be aware of and sensitive to the importance of religion in caring for such patients.

Introduction: Leucorrhoea is a discharge from the genitalia that is not blood but a clinical manifestation of various infections, malignancies, or benign tumors of the reproductive organs. Leucorrhoea is still considered not a serious thing for adolescents, therefore, in maintaining the cleanliness of the genital organs, it is still not good. Taking care of the external genitalia that is not good can make vaginal discharge occur, such as maintaining cleanliness, washing the vulva every day and keeping it dry to prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi. If this problem is not taken seriously, it will have a negative impact in the future. To determine the relationship between knowledge and attitude to prevent leucorrhoea in adolescent girls at Al Muhadjirin 2 Senior High School Bekasi. Methods: This research is quantitative research with a cross sectional design. The sample in this study were students of class X, XI, XII as many as 130, using total sampling. The instrument used an instrument of demographic data, knowledge, attitude, and prevention of leucorrhoea that has been tested for validity and reliability by previous researchers. Results: The results of the study used the chi-square statistical method, which showed that there was a relationship between prevention of leucorrhoea and knowledge and attitudes in adolescent girls with p value = 0.000 <0.05, with an average age of 16 to 19 years, have more knowledge about leucorrhoea and have a good attitude toward preventing leucorrhoea. Conclusion: Knowledge and attitudes are significantly related to the prevention of leucorrhoea in adolescent girls. It is hoped that health workers can cooperate with schools in providing information to students about reproductive health, especially the problem of leucorrhoea.

Background: Neuropathy is a complication of Diabetes Mellitus that changes the structure and function of peripheral nerves, causing diabetic neuropathy due to peripheral nerve degeneration. Neuropathy examination is used to prevent diabetic foot ulcers (DFU), but it is still rarely done or has not become a routine examination in health services. Alternative examination of neuropathy was done with the Ipswich Touch Test (IpTT). The purpose of this study was to identify neurosensory-peripheral disorders in the diabetic foot. Methods: The research design used a quantitative description with a cross-sectional approach involving 40 respondents. Intervention with diabetic foot examination using the Ipswich Touch Test (IpTT) instrument. Sampling technique with accidental sampling approach. Statistical test using descriptive numeric. Results: the results of the neurosensoriperipheral examination in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus through the IpTT examination had an average value of 3.85 out of a total score of 6, which means that the respondent experienced a decrease in sensory function. Discussion: The majority of patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 have decreased neurosensoriperipheral function. Nurses can perform an Ipswich Touch Test (IpTT) on diabetic feet to assess peripheral neurosensory function to prevent diabetic foot ulcers.

Background: A complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) is diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Its causative factors include age, sex, duration of DM, body mass index (BMI), and a history of hypertension. Purpose: This study was aimed at identifying factors associated with DPN in adults with T2 DM. Methods: We employed a quantitative method with a cross-sectional approach and recruited 182 respondents through purposive sampling. We administered a diabetic neuropathy syndrome questionnaire and measured BMI and blood pressure. Data were analyzed univariately and bivariately using the chi-square test. Results: Of the 189 respondents, 139 (73.6%) were aged 45–59 years. The participants included 121 (67%) women and 8 (33%) men. Of all respondents, 108 (58.2%) had diabetes mellitus, 90 (49.4%) had an overweight BMI, 99 (51.6%) had a history of hypertension, and 139 (72.5%) had a history of DPN. The chi-square analysis showed a relationship between DPN and age (p = 0.000), duration of DM (p = 0.001), BMI (p = 0.010), and a history of hypertension (p = 0.000), but not with sex (p = 0.688). Conclusion: DPN can occur in patients with type 2 DM, and a high risk is associated with middle age, long duration of DM, overweight BMI, and a history of hypertension.

Background: The Voluntary Corps (KSR) is the spearhead of PMI in the field. KSR members must have the awareness to devote themselves to humanitarian tasks. The empathy that KSR volunteers have can motivate volunteers to help others. Volunteers who have high levels of empathy will improve their prosocial behavior. Methods: Correlation analytic research design uses a Cross Sectional study approach. Sampling research using Simple Random Sampling was dine on as many as 110 volunteers KSR PMI Surabaya City. Empathy and Prosocial Behavior Factors in volunteers were measured using an online questionnaire (via google form). Data analysis used Spearman Rho test with significance (p < 0.050). Results: The results showed that 106 (97.3%) respondents had moderate empathy, with 104 respondents having moderate prosocial behavior. About 4 other respondents have low prosocial behavior and 1 respondent has high prosocial behavior. The results also show that 3 (2.7%) respondents have low empathy with low prosocial behavior in 1 person and moderate prosocial behavior among 2 people. Spearman Rho test showed that there was a relationship between empathy and prosocial behavior in KSR PMI volunteers in Surabaya City with p value = 0.040 (p <0.050) r = 0.196. Conclusion: Empathy possessed by KSR volunteers is an important factor for prosocial behavior. The results of this study indicate that the active role of KSR volunteers is needed to motivate their colleagues and to cultivate a sense of empathy in order to grow high prosocial behavior.

Background: Obesity is the most common health concern among the public worldwide. Weight gain among students occurred during their college years, when physical activity and dietary patterns were observed to change. The Health Belief Model (HBM) depicts the role of anticipating and justifying the causes of a person's transformation or maintenance of specific health behaviors. Objective: This study determines the prevalence of obesity and the differences in weight management behaviours with gender among university students. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Puncak Alam Campus, Selangor, involving 377 respondents (122 males and 255 females) aged 18-26 years from February to April 2021. Health Belief Model (HBM) questionnaire on Weight Management Behaviors was used as a research tool in this study. Results: The findings showed that the majority of the respondents have a normal Body Mass Index (BMI) (n=214, 56.8%), followed by overweight (n=66, 17.5%), underweight (n=63, 16.7%) and obese (n=34, 9.0%). Independent t-test showed that female students significantly have more perceived susceptibility and cues to action than males (p<0.05). While, male students significantly have a high score in weight management behaviour for perceived benefits, perceived self-efficacy in dieting, and behavioural intention of weight management compared to female (p<0.05). Conclusion: Health interventions such as nutrition education regarding healthy food preparation and exercise schedule, including duration and types of activity, should increase female students' motivation and confidence in managing weight. Besides, an awareness campaign regarding the risk of obesity focusing on the male students must be created to generate awareness and prevention of obesity.
背景:肥胖是全世界公众最常见的健康问题。学生的体重增加发生在大学期间，当时观察到体育活动和饮食模式发生了变化。健康信念模型(HBM)描述了预测和证明一个人转变或维持特定健康行为的原因的作用。目的:了解大学生肥胖患病率及体重管理行为的性别差异。方法:横断面研究于2021年2月至4月在雪兰莪州Universiti tecknologi MARA (UiTM) Puncak Alam校区进行，涉及377名年龄在18-26岁的受访者(122名男性和255名女性)。本研究以健康信念模型(HBM)体重管理行为问卷为研究工具。结果:调查结果显示，受访人群体重指数(BMI)以正常(n=214, 56.8%)居多，其次为超重(n=66, 17.5%)、体重过轻(n=63, 16.7%)和肥胖(n=34, 9.0%)。独立t检验显示，女生的感知易感性和行为线索明显多于男生(p<0.05)。而男生在体重管理行为感知利益、节食自我效能感和体重管理行为意愿方面得分显著高于女生(p<0.05)。结论:健康干预措施，如营养教育，包括健康食物的准备和运动计划，包括活动的持续时间和类型，应增加女学生管理体重的动力和信心。此外，必须开展一项以男生为中心的关于肥胖风险的宣传活动，以提高对肥胖的认识和预防。
{"title":"Weight Management Behaviors among Students in a Public University","authors":"Siti Nur Fatin Fateha Ahmad, Nur Syahirah Salehuddin, S. K. Ahmad Sharoni, Rosuzeita Fauzi, S. Buhari, N. Md Nor","doi":"10.31674/mjn.2023.v14i03.008","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.31674/mjn.2023.v14i03.008","url":null,"abstract":"Background: Obesity is the most common health concern among the public worldwide. Weight gain among students occurred during their college years, when physical activity and dietary patterns were observed to change. The Health Belief Model (HBM) depicts the role of anticipating and justifying the causes of a person's transformation or maintenance of specific health behaviors. Objective: This study determines the prevalence of obesity and the differences in weight management behaviours with gender among university students. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Puncak Alam Campus, Selangor, involving 377 respondents (122 males and 255 females) aged 18-26 years from February to April 2021. Health Belief Model (HBM) questionnaire on Weight Management Behaviors was used as a research tool in this study. Results: The findings showed that the majority of the respondents have a normal Body Mass Index (BMI) (n=214, 56.8%), followed by overweight (n=66, 17.5%), underweight (n=63, 16.7%) and obese (n=34, 9.0%). Independent t-test showed that female students significantly have more perceived susceptibility and cues to action than males (p<0.05). While, male students significantly have a high score in weight management behaviour for perceived benefits, perceived self-efficacy in dieting, and behavioural intention of weight management compared to female (p<0.05). Conclusion: Health interventions such as nutrition education regarding healthy food preparation and exercise schedule, including duration and types of activity, should increase female students' motivation and confidence in managing weight. Besides, an awareness campaign regarding the risk of obesity focusing on the male students must be created to generate awareness and prevention of obesity.","PeriodicalId":261912,"journal":{"name":"Malaysian Journal of Nursing","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130807691","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
