The misconception of nutritional principles causes dietary oversight, resulting in an excess or deficit of energy and specific nutrients essential for the proper course of pregnancy and a child's healthy growth. This review aims to evaluate the effectiveness of nutrition education in improving knowledge and dietary change conducted in pregnant women. Methods. This review study complies with the 2009 PRISMA guidelines. The studies included in this review are mainly studies with experimental designs. Databases used in searching relevant literatures such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, Willey online Library, Web of Science, Cochrane, and Proquest that were published from 2010 to 2021, full text, English version, experimental studies. Two review authors conducted studies screening based on the eligibility criteria, and extracted important points in the studies included. Quality of the studies included were assessed using EPHPP. Results. A total of 10 studies were identified in this review. Six studies in the high quality, and four studies in moderate quality. Overall outcomes of the studies included are Knowledge, Attitude, practice, dietary practice, awareness, hemoglobin blood level, and Gestational Weight Gain (GWG). Conclusion. Nutrition education in many methods has a power to improve knowledge, and dietary change of pregnant women. It implies the need for future large high quality trials using a standardized approach to measuring and reporting similar findings across studies.

Osteoarthritis is often encountered in the elderly and contributes significantly to pain. Pain complaints involve multifactorial and often face many hindrances in the management. Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of spirotive relaxation techniques in reducing osteoarthritis pain scale in the elderly. Methods: This quasi-experimental study used the Pre-Post Test Control Group Design, conducted in the Penyengat Olak and Sungai Duren Community Health Center, Jambi Province, Indonesia, from September to November 2021. Sixty-four elderly participants in this study were divided into Spirotive relaxation exercise and dhikr as the intervention group and the control group given Spirotive relaxation exercise only. Data analysis used t-test and independent t-test at a significant level of 95%. Results: There are differences in pain levels of the intervention group before and after Spirotive relaxation exercise and dhikr. Before the intervention, pain levels were moderate to severe, and pain levels were mild to moderate after the intervention. Similar results were also obtained in the control group given Spirotive relaxation exercise only with a significant reduction in pain. The independent test results showed a p-value = 0.207, indicating no difference in osteoarthritis pain in the intervention and control groups. Conclusion: Spiritual relaxation exercises have been shown to reduce pain levels in the elderly with osteoarthritis. There are also differences in the level of joint pain scale in the intervention and control groups. It suggests that public health centers provide non-pharmacological inspirational interventions as an additional therapy for the elderly.

The adverse effects of the Covid-19 vaccines played a critical role in public trust in the vaccines. The current study aimed to provide evidence on the side effects of the BNT163b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine (Pfizer-BioNTech®); ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine (AstraZeneca®); BBIBP-CorVvaccine (Sinopharm®) COVID-19 vaccines. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study design was performed from April 26th, 2021, to June 3rd, 2021. Convenience sampling was used to select respondents; face validity was performed to the mandatory multiple-choice items questionnaire to cover the respondent’s demographic characteristics, coronavirus-19 related anamneses, and the side effect duration of coronavirus-19 vaccines, the data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics. Results: The 588 participants enrolled in the current study. ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine received 49.7%, followed by BNT163b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine and BBIBP-CorV (39.5% and 10.9%). The most common complaint was headache (61.2%), followed by vaccine injection site discomfort (58.8%), fatigue (49.7%), fever (48.3%), muscle discomfort (42.9%), and approximately (10.5% and 10.2%) had injection site swelling and nausea, respectively. Most of those surveyed had post-vaccine symptoms for one to two days (25.2%), (41%), and only a small percentage (3.7%) experienced them for over one month. ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine handled 53% of the side effects, followed by BNT163b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine (42%) and BBIBP-CorV vaccines (5%). Conclusion: Prevalence of various local and systemic vaccines side effects, such as headache, fever, and pain at the injection site, was observed. Almost all participants had mild symptoms and were well-tolerated .AstraZeneca® vaccine has the most side effects, followed by the Pfizer® vaccine, and the Sinopharm® vaccine has the least.

This process began in 1978 with the adoption of the law 180 which produced a radical reform in mental health care. The problems of the continuous confrontation with increasing levels of expenditure are reflected in the search for models to improve both the efficiency and effectiveness of the health care system. Among these, the value creation model proposes to optimize the relationship between effectiveness, quality, and appropriateness of care on the one hand, and efficiency, cost and how resources are used on the other. The intervention involves redesigning services on the principles of recovery; implementing treatments supported by scientific evidence; encouraging processes of social inclusion. The proposed rehabilitation interventions are recovery oriented that place the person at the center of his rehabilitation path, motivating him in assuming responsibility for the treatment proposed during hospitalization. Objective: Evaluate the impact of the organisational reorganisation of the DSM S.R.R Regional Health Service of Ancona Area Vasta 2 by introducing evidence-based and recovery-oriented practices through the evaluation of clinical outcomes and psychosocial functioning. Methods: Longitudinal descriptive observational study with evaluation of a cohort of 13 patients, hospitalized in residential and semi-residential care at SRP1 “Casa Rossa” Area Vasta 2 of Ancona, by administration of a questionnaire (HoNOS) at the time of recruitment (February 2019), at 6 months (August 2019) and at 12 months (February 2020). The 12 items of the questionnaire were grouped into four subsets: behavioural problems (items 1-3), deficits and disabilities (items 4-5), psychopathological symptoms (items 6-8) and relational/environmental problems (items 9-12). Results: Survey results show a reduction in mean scores at 6 and 12 months compared to baseline in all subscales. Conclusions: Intensive mental health residential facilities need to put more effort into evaluating effectiveness in practice, using appropriate tools for outcome assessment and analysis of results. It is possible, in daily clinical practice, to evaluate the outcome of admissions in order to satisfactorily describe the changes induced during the period of hospitalization.
