Background: Diabetic neuropathy is a chronic complication commonly occurring in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients and serves as the primary cause of foot ulcers and amputations. In primary healthcare facilities, early detection of neuropathy faces limitations in resources and diagnostic tools. Therefore, identifying easily measurable clinical and anthropometric factors is crucial to support initial screening in at-risk populations.

Aims and Scope of the Paper: This study aims to analyze the relationship between clinical factors and anthropometric parameters with the incidence of diabetic neuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus at primary healthcare facilities. The scope of the study includes the evaluation of variables such as age, gender, duration of diabetes, random blood glucose levels, blood pressure, and body mass index (BMI).

Methods: This study employed an analytic observational design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 120 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were recruited using purposive sampling. Diabetic neuropathy was assessed using the monofilament test. Independent variables included body mass index (BMI), duration of diabetes, and hypertension status. Data analysis was performed using the chi-square test with calculation of prevalence ratios (PRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).

Results: Of the 120 respondents, 78 (65.0%) were diagnosed with diabetic neuropathy. Overweight/obese BMI was significantly associated with neuropathy (PR = 4.39; 95% CI: 2.17–8.89; p < 0.001). Diabetes duration of more than 5 years also demonstrated a significant association (PR = 2.27; 95% CI: 1.35–3.83; p = 0.002). Hypertension was significantly associated with diabetic neuropathy (PR = 2.91; 95% CI: 1.58–5.36; p < 0.001).

Conclusion: Overweight/obese BMI, longer duration of diabetes, and hypertension were significantly associated with diabetic neuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus at primary healthcare facilities. These simple clinical and anthropometric parameters can be utilized as a basis for risk screening in the early detection of diabetic neuropathy in primary care settings.

Background of study: Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic disease associated with various long-term complications, including diabetic foot wounds, which may lead to infection, lower-extremity amputation, disability, and increased mortality if not properly prevented. Effective prevention relies on patients' adherence to appropriate foot care practices, which may be influenced by their level of knowledge regarding diabetes and foot care.
Aims and scope of paper: This study examined the association between knowledge level and foot wound prevention behavior among patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus at the Pasar Minggu Community Health Center.
Methods: A quantitative study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among 56 patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus selected through total sampling. Data were collected using the Diabetes Knowledge Questionnaire (DKQ-24) and a foot wound prevention behavior questionnaire. Univariate analysis was performed to describe respondent characteristics, while the Pearson chi-square test was used to determine the association between knowledge level and foot wound prevention behavior.
Result: Most respondents demonstrated a moderate level of knowledge (75.0%), while 64.3% exhibited a high level of foot wound prevention behavior. Statistical analysis revealed a significant association between the level of knowledge and foot wound prevention behavior (p = 0.016), indicating that respondents with higher knowledge levels were more likely to demonstrate appropriate preventive practices.
Conclusion: Knowledge level was significantly associated with foot wound prevention behavior among patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening patient education on diabetic foot care to support preventive practices and reduce the risk of diabetes-related foot complications.

Background of study: Breast pain and breast engorgement are common problems experienced by postpartum mothers, especially during the early days after childbirth. These conditions may interfere with breastfeeding and reduce maternal comfort.

Aims and scope of paper: This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of aloe vera compress combined with breast care in reducing breast pain and breast engorgement in postpartum mothers.

Methods: This study used a case report design involving three postpartum mothers who experienced breast pain and breast engorgement. Participants received aloe vera compress therapy for 30 minutes followed by breast care procedures for 20 minutes, twice daily for three consecutive days. Pain was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), while breast engorgement was assessed using the Six Point Engorgement Scale (SPES).

Result: The results showed a reduction of 2,66 points in pain scores (NRS) and a decrease of 3,32 points in breast engorgement scores (SPES) after the intervention.

Conclusion: The combination of aloe vera compress and breast care was effective in reducing breast pain and breast engorgement in postpartum mothers and may be considered a complementary non-pharmacological nursing intervention

Background: KTR is an area prohibited for smoking, promoting, making and/or selling cigarettes. The scope of KTR are locations with academic importance. Sleman Regency has KTR regulation under Sleman Regent's Regulation No 42, 2012. The KTR implementation in Public Junior High Schools (JHS) has not been effective, as depicted by non-smoking rates data which is only 86%. Field studies also showed that some teachers still smoke in schools.

Aims and Scope of the Paper:  This research aimed to determine the relationship between knowledge and teachers' perception in KTR implementation in Sleman District Public JHS.

Methods:  The method of this study is cross-sectional design with multistage random sampling involving 223 teachers from 11 Public JHS.

Results:  Univariate data analysis used to determine the characteristics, knowledge level and perceptions of KTR implementation. Bivariate analysis used to determine the relationship between knowledge and perception. This study was conducted from April to May 2019. Based on total scores, 118 respondents (52.9%) had high knowledge about KTR and 147 respondents (65.9%) had good perceptions of KTR implementation. The chi-square analysis resulted in p=0.031 with r=0.149.

Conclusion:  The majority of teachers have high knowledge and good perception of KTR. There is a positive correlation between knowledge and teachers' perceptions of KTR implementation in Sleman District Public JHS.
