AIM: This study aimed to see the effect of workplace stretching exercise on work fatigue in workers at PT. X International, Indonesia. METHODS: This study used a quasi-experimental study with one group pre-test and post-test design. Respondents were 30 people selected by purposive sampling and met the study inclusion criteria. The provision of workplace stretching exercises was carried out for 15 working days and is given every 10 am after workers work for 2 h. RESULTS: The mean of work fatigue before intervention (pre-test) is 454.8133 and the average work fatigue after an intervention (post-test) is 321.9133 so that there are differences in the average work fatigue before and after the intervention. CONCLUSION: Workplace stretching exercise intervention affects reducing work fatigue in production workers of PT. X International Indonesia.

In theory, income is a factor that affects the lack of chronic energy, family income determines the quality and quantity of dishes in the family [11], [12]. However, in this study, income is not at risk for CED because in both cases and controls the average monthly income of families <UMK Makassar city.…”

BACKGROUND: Chronic energy deficiency (CED) is a condition of malnutrition of pregnant women which have an advanced impact in the form of health problems and complications in the mother and baby. For this reason, it is necessary to work toward prevention by knowing the socioeconomic influence on CED. AIM: The aim of the study was to determine the effect of socioeconomics on the incidence of CED in pregnant women. METHODS: This research is observational analytic with case–control research design. A sample of 99 pregnant women was taken from the working area of the Sudiang Raya Health Center. This sample consisted of 33 case groups of mothers with CED and 66 control groups of pregnant women who did not suffer from CED who had met the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the study. Data were analyzed using analysis Chi-square and multiple logistic regression. RESULTS: The results showed that maternal occupation (p = 0.018; odds ratio [OR] = 6.091; confidence interval [CI] 95% 1.367–27.133) was significant for CED, whereas that education (p = 0.213; OR = 0.593; CI 95% 0.260–1.351) and income (p = 0.576; OR = 0.733; 95% CI 0.247–2.179) are not significant to CED. Based on multivariate analysis we found that the most influential factor was occupation (adjusted OR = 11.734, CI 95% 1.253–109.91). CONCLUSION: Based on the results of research and discussion, it can be concluded that work affects the CED in pregnant women, while maternal education and income have no effect on CED in pregnant women. Occupation is the most influential factor on the CED, women who do not work have a risk of 11.734 times experiencing CED compared to women who work.

BACKGROUND: The maternal mortality rate (MMR) in Gorontalo Province is still high at 194.7/100,000 live births. Causes of high MMR include bleeding and anemia. AIM: This study aimed to assess the effect of giving Moringa oleifera extract on the hemoglobin concentration of preconception women in the area of the health center Tibawa. METHODS: This research method was a true experiment with a type of randomized controlled double-blind intervention of WUS aged 15–35 years with a sample of 44 people selected using purposive sampling techniques collected by trained personnel, including general data of respondents. RESULTS: The results showed nutritional status and hemoglobin concentration in the treatment group of 12 people (54%) with an increase in Hb 0.1–1.0 g/dl and ten people (45%) with an increase in Hb 1.5–2.0 g/dl after the intervention, whereas in the control group of five people (22%) with an increase in Hb 0.1–1.0 g/dl and 17 people (77%), there was no increase in Hb after the intervention. There was a significant difference in hemoglobin concentration in the treatment group with p = 0.000 (p < 0.05) with an average increase of 1.54. There was a significant difference in hemoglobin concentration in controls with p = 0.025 (p < 0.05) with an average increase of 0.22. CONCLUSION: There is a difference in the effect between administration of M. oleifera extract that is more effective on hemoglobin concentration compared to MMN. It is hoped that in supporting government programs in reducing anemia in women of childbearing age, M. oleifera extract can be an alternative to giving blood-added tablets MMN.
