Hypertension, a prevalent condition among the elderly in Indonesia, requires targeted interventions to mitigate its impact. A quasi-experimental pre-post intervention study was conducted in Bandar Lor, Kediri City, Indonesia, involving 106 elderly participants. The Paguyuban Raga Paruh Baya Lansia Sejahtera (PURABAYA), a senior wellness group program aimed to improve hypertension management through educational sessions on physical activity, nutrition, and hypertension management exercises. The program significantly increased participants' knowledge of physical activity (median increase from 59.62 to 82.69) and nutrition (median increase from 80.51 to 95.38). Systolic blood pressure decreased markedly (median from 173.86 mmHg to 142.53 mmHg), indicating improved hypertension control. However, there was no significant change in diastolic blood pressure. The findings underscore the effectiveness of targeted educational interventions in enhancing health literacy and managing systolic blood pressure among the elderly. The PURABAYA program's success suggests its potential for scalability and adaptation to broader public health initiatives.","PeriodicalId":7551,"journal":{"name":"African journal of reproductive health","volume":"28 10s","pages":"125-133"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142783660","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this study was to analyze the effect of gender relations on unmet need for family planning. We conducted a cross-sectional study with a randomly selected sample of 92 married women in Sumbersari District, Jember Regency, Indonesia. We collected data through structured interviews conducted between January and March 2023, and the data was analysed with univariate, bivariate and multiple logistic regression. The unmet need for family planning among the married women was 33.7%. Married women who had 3-4 children and low education were at greater risk of unmet need for family planning (OR 9.2; 95% CI 3.22-26.28 and OR 11.7; 95% CI 2.3-60, respectively). Married women who experience unequal gender relations with their husband were more at risk of unmet needs for family planning (OR 10.3; 95% CI 2.97-35.55) as well as women who agree with the husband's beating of his wife (OR 8; 95% CI 2.53-25.80). Gender inequality was a determinant of the unmet need for family planning among married women living in urban areas. Therefore, it is necessary to improve women's empowerment programs to reduce unmet need family planning among married women.","PeriodicalId":7551,"journal":{"name":"African journal of reproductive health","volume":"28 10s","pages":"175-183"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142783816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results of the study indicate that perceptions of and family functions are significantly related to the level of adolescent involvement in high-risk behavior.

In addition, gender, age, and other sociodemographic factors also play a role in determining high-risk behavior. These findings underline the important role of the family in shaping adolescent behavior and emphasize the need for providing appropriate sexual information and education by parents. The implication of this research underscores the significance of parental involvement in providing emotional support, information, and supervision for their children. These parental roles can substantially reduce high-risk behaviors among adolescents.","PeriodicalId":7551,"journal":{"name":"African journal of reproductive health","volume":"28 10s","pages":"74-80"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142783988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of the study was to describe a shared responsibility on roles to improve childbirth readiness practices and readiness in the face of complications. The literature was systematically obtained from online journal databases namely PubMed, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, and other related sources, from 2018 to 2023. Sixteen articles on BPCR Interventions were described. Existing literature identifies the value of health care providers, communities, families, and women in shared responsibilities that can improve BPCR practices.

Five hundred and twelve participants were chosen in this study, followed by dividing into HPV positive (212 cases) and negative groups (300 cases) based on HPV 23 typing results. The high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) positive group showed higher abnormal rates of lactobacillus, catalase, cleanliness, sialidosidase, and proline aminopeptidase than the HPV negative group. No significant differences were found in pH value, leukocyte esterase, and Acetylglucosaminidase abnormality between 2 groups. The HR-HPV positive group presented a higher percentage of patients with cleanliness III and IV. Relative to low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) group, HSIL group presented a higher HPV positive infection rate. Mould infection, Gardnerella infection, and catalase were identified as independent risk elements for HR-HPV infection. Vitamin D supplementation was found to potentially reduce HR-HPV infection persistence post-Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure (LEEP), improve nutritional health, reduce insulin, insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and triglyceride levels, as well as reduce high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) along with malondialdehyde (MDA) levels. Our results indicate that HR-HPV infection is intimately associated with the condition of the vaginal microenvironment, and vitamin D addition potentially reduces the persistence of HR-HPV infection post-LEEP, improves nutritional and metabolic health, reduces inflammation, and be well-tolerated.","PeriodicalId":7551,"journal":{"name":"African journal of reproductive health","volume":"28 10","pages":"88-98"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142765496","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
