Uncontrolled hypertension can trigger degenerative diseases such as heart disease and kidney failure. One of the therapies used to lower blood pressure is Ambon banana and sweet star fruit therapy. Subjects and Method: Research on elderly men suffering from hypertension in the Tarus Community Health Center working area used a Quasi-Experimental pretest-posttest with a Control Group research design. The number of samples in this study was 20 elderly men using a simple random sampling method. The dependent variable in this study was blood pressure, while the independent variable was the administration of Ambon banana juice, sweet star fruit juice, and a combination of Ambon banana juice and sweet star fruit juice. The measuring instrument used in this research is a questionnaire. The data analysis used in this research is Anova and Post hoc. Results: The average blood pressure in the elderly decreased after being given Ambon Banana Juice, Sweet Starfruit Juice, and a combination of Juices. The greatest reduction in blood pressure occurred in the group given Ambon banana juice (Mean= 140 mmHg; p=0.002), compared to sweet starfruit juice (Mean= 148 mmHg; p= 0.036), and these results were statistically significant. The juice combination also reduced the average blood pressure, but the results were not statistically significant (Mean= 156 mmHg; p= 0.454). Conclusion: The average blood pressure in the elderly decreased after being given Ambon Banana Juice, Sweet Starfruit Juice, and a combination of Juices.

Selain kegunaannya, cabai lokal memiliki ciri khas dengan tingkatkepedadasan yang tinggi. Namun, cabai tersebut jarang ditemukan di pekarangan rumah ataupun di kebun petani.Menurut pendapat masyarakat bahwa cabai tersebut sulit dibudidayakan. Salah satu upaya sebagai alternatif adalahpenggunaan GA3 dan air kelapa muda secara in vitro. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh dankonsentrasi optimum pada penggunaan G A3 dan air kelapa muda terhadap perkecambahan benih cabai lokal secara invitro. Penelitian ini menggunakan RAL pola faktorial. Faktor pertama berupa GA3 (0 ppm, 10 ppm, 20 ppm dan 30ppm) dan faktor kedua berupa volume air kelapa muda (0%, 10%, 20% dan 3 0%).

Early childhood education in kindergarten consists of a number of activities and experiences designed to help children to acquire cognitive, social, and learningrelated skills. The purpose of this study was to examine factors associated with the development of children aged 4-6 years. Subjects and Method: A cross sectional study was carried out at Aisyiah kindergarten in Kupang, East Nusa Tenggara. A sample of 74 children aged 4-6 years was selected for this study by probability sampling. The dependent variable was development. The independent variables were maternal education and parity. Child development was measured by Denver development screening test. The other variables were collected by questionnaire. The data were analyzed by a multiple logistic regression. Results: Parity <3 (OR= 3.97; 95% CI= 1.11 to 14.23; p= 0.034) and higher maternal education (OR= 2.10; 95% CI= 0.62 to 7.12; p= 0.232) were associated with better child development. Conclusion: Parity and maternal education are associated with child development.

In Indonesia the figure of dysmenorrhea is estimated at 64.25%. Students who experience dysmenorrhea will greatly disrupt learning activities and absence on campus. Lavender and jasmine aromatherapy has benefits for reducing dysmenorrhea because it contains linanool. One of the methods to decrease the dysmenorrhea is namely lavender aromatherapy and jasmine aromatherapy. The purpose of this study was to determine differences of the effectiveness of lavender aromatherapy and jasmine aromatherapy towards the intensity of dysmenorrhea. Subjects and Method: This was a a quasiexperiment without control group. The study was conducted at the Postgraduate Clinic of Universitas Nusa Cendana, from March to April 2020. The study population was the students of the Faculty of Public Health, Universitas Nusa Cendana year 2019. A sample of 40 students was selected by purposive sampling. The dependent variable was dysmenorrhea. The independent variables were lavender and jasmine aromatherapy. Dysmenorrhea was measured by Numerical Pain Rating Scale. The data were analyzed by t test. Results: After receiving lavender and jasmine aromatherapy, intensity of dysmenorrhea in lavender aromatherapy (Mean=19,50 ; SD=0,48) was lower than jasmine aromatherapy (Mean=-21.50 ; SD=0.51), but it was statistically non-significant (p= 0.524). Conclusion: Lavender and jasmine aromatherapy have similarly effect in intensity of dysmenorrhea.

Therefore, there exist two main ontogenetic transitions, the juvenile-adult vegetative transition or vegetative phase change, and the adult vegetative-reproductive phase transition or reproductive phase change. The genetic and physiological control of the transition to flowering has been studied intensively over the past four decades but the other major transition has received much less attention. This study investigates the genetic and physiological regulation of vegetative phase change in the garden pea (Pisum sativum L) using a novel heterochronic mutant, accelerated phase change (apc), which expresses a consistent difference in the rate of vegetative phase change when compared to the wild type plants. Genetic analyses, using morphological and enzyme markers, revealed that the apc locus is on linkage group 131 (between a and aa...
