Mothers with low education will be more difficult to receive information compared to mothers with higher education. Less knowledge mother may affect poor caring pattern, therefore it could induce wasting and stunting problem in children under five. The aim of this research was to analyze correlation between the level of education, knowledge, and mother's care pattern with wasting and stunting. The sample was 47 children from poor families in Balen, Bojonegoro that selected using simple random sampling technique. Data were analyzed using chi-square test with α=0,05. The result of the research showed that in poor families, percentage of stunting was higher than wasting and there was no correlation between level of education (p=0,581 and 0,605), level of knowledge (p=0,632 and 0,963), and mother's care pattern (p=0,719, and 0,928) with wasting and stunting. This study concluded that the level of education, knowledge, and mother's care pattern do not contribute to the occurrence of wasting and stunting problem among children under five from poor families in Balen, Bojonegoro. The government should strive to increase mother's and pregnant women's knowledge about balanced nutrition, child health, and child nutritional problem to prevent wasting and stunting through routine promotion and counselling by health professionals

The control group was provided with only medication from the hospital, and their joint inflammation was likewise observed. Blood samples were taken before and after treatment, to measure the levels of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine, as well as the concentrations of TNF-α and IL-1β. There was a decrease in BUN and creatinine levels in the control group, but it was not significant, decreasing by 3% and 8%, respectively. The treatment group also showed elevated levels of BUN and creatinine, which also was not significant at 3% and 7%, respectively. There was a decrease in the concentration of TNF-α in the control group by 9% and 22%.

Pengaruh Pemberian Jus Buah Belimbing dan Mentimun terhadap Penurunan Tekanan Darah Sistolik dan Diastolik Penderita Hipertensi

A single blind randomized pretest-posttest control group-quasi experiment was done to analyze the effect of star fruit and cucumber juice to decrease systolic and diastolic blood pressure of hypertension patients at Grati Public Health Care Center, Pasuruan, East Java. Screening test was done to find out the hypertension patient, and 28 patients were got and then grouped into treatment and control group consisting of 14 patients each. Each patient in treatment group drank a glass of the juice everyday during two weeks, on the other hand the patients in control group did not. However, the blood pressures of both groups patients were controlled by having them take the same medicine given by the health care center. After two weeks, posttest to measure systolic and diastolic blood pressures was measured to find out whether there was any difference in blood pressure before and after the treatment and also the difference of decreasing of the blood pressure between the patients in treatment and control group after the treatment. Anacova test was applied to analyze factors suspected to affect blood pressure. However, since the result showed that there were no significant variables affecting blood pressure, then t-test was applied further. The result of the study showed that there was no difference in systolic and diastolic blood pressures between the two groups at the beginning of this research. However, in treatment group, there was difference in systolic and diastolic blood pressure before and after treatment.
