Methods: The present study was a hospital based cross sectional comparative study among the male and female caregivers of Schizophrenia. Purposive sampling technique was used and sample size consists of a total of 60 caregivers of patients with Schizophrenia 30 male caregivers of patients with Schizophrenia and 30 female caregivers of patients with schizophrenia. Results & Conclusion: There was no significant found between the two groups. Hence we can conclude that social support is almost equal in male and female caregiver.

The research instrument used a questionnaire, the results of which were analyzed using multivariate data. Results: The results showed that social support (p-value 0.031, odds ratio 3.253), socioeconomic (p-value 0.012, odds ratio 3.557), knowledge (p-value 0.033, odds ratio 2.966), family support (p-value 0.015, odds ratio 7,845), and medication adherence (p-value 0.041, odds ratio 3.045) affected the recurrence of mental disorders patients at the Psychiatry Polyclinic of Santo Vincentius Hospital 2020.

This study aimed to analyze the relationship between motivation,  family social support with treatment compliance in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Pulmonary BP4 Poly (Hall Eradication and Prevention of Pulmonary Disease) Pamekasan. This study was an observational analytic study with cross sectional approach. Amount of samples of 16 outpatients selected by simple random sampling technique from the patient population undergoing treatment at Poly BP4 Pamekasan. Independent variables examined included family motivation and social support, while the dependent variable was treatment compliance. Data was collected through questionnaires spread sheets, data were analyzed using multiple logistic regression analysis. The results showed there was a negative relationship motivation with treatment compliance (OR = 0.67, p = 0.667) and there is  a relationship of family social support with treatment compliance (OR = 20.0, p = 0.027). Multivariate test results were there is a relationship with sufficient strength among motivation (OR = 0.48, p = 0.589), family social support (OR = 21.99, p = 0.028) with treatment compliance.Conclusion of this study is a family of high social support  will lead to higher compliance too. For tuberculosis treatment program required an awareness of the patient and family support

The performance of nurses can be seen from several cases that occur in hospitals. The incidence of falls in patients, nosocomial infections, inadequate documentation is the result of nurses' low performance. Factors that affect the performance of nurses in hospitals are job satisfaction. So this study aims to describe the relationship between job satisfaction and nurse performance. This study used a cross-sectional study design with a sample of 85 nurses at Arosuka Hospital using proportional sampling technique. The research instrument used a job satisfaction survey questionnaire and the Individual Work Performance quasi (IWPQ) and statistical tests used frequency distribution and chi-square tests. The results showed that the majority of nurses' job satisfaction was in the satisfied category as much as 56.5% and the majority of nurses' performance in the high category was 51.8%. Then obtained a significant relationship between job satisfaction and nurse performance with a p-value of 0.000. So it is expected that hospitals can pay attention to aspects of nurse job satisfaction in making policies

The aim of our study was to evaluate the morphogenetic variability as a marker of smoking dependency in adult smokers versus controls and to investigate the presence and the degree of morphogenetic variability difference between male and female smokers versus same gender controls. The cross-sectional study evaluated 241 smokers and 185 nonsmoker individuals as controls. We analyzed 17 homozygous recessive characteristics (HRC). There was a significant difference in the individual variations of 17 HRCs between the controls and smokers (??2=61.400, p<0.001; for females ??2=79.440, p<0.001; for males ??2=84.972, p<0.001). The mean values of HRCs significantly differed between smokers and controls (MV?SEM(Controls) -4.79?0.13, MV?SEM(Smokers) -5.70?0.12; p<0.001). For males, presence of 6/17 (35.29% genetic homozygosity) HRCs (OR=6.12) was to the certain degree predictor for smoking dependency. Higher degree of genetic homozygosity, changed variability and male gender, might be some among potential numerous factors that could have impact on smoking development and dependence.

Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis which usually attacks the lungs. The increasing number of TB patients will result in an increase in TB transmission in the community. The lack of prevention measures of TB transmission occurs because the patient has less motivation in preventing the transmission of disease. This study aims to determine the relationship of family social support with patient motivation in preventing transmission of pulmonary TB in Negara Sub-district 2019. This study is quantitative study and used a cross-sectional design. The population in this study was pulmonary TB patients in the Negara sub-district with a total sample of 43 respondents. The research sample used a Simple Random Sampling technique. Analysis of the study using Spearman’s Rho. Family social support the most lung TB people are in good category 37 (86%). The motivation of patients in preventing the transmission of the most lung TB in the category of good 40 (93%). The results of the research analysis state P = 0.005 (P = 0.05). There is a relationship between the social support of the family with the motivation of the patient in preventing the transmission of lung TB.

Purpose: Although the literature establishes a link between health consciousness (HC) and prevention behavior, less explored are the individual, social, and health characteristics that are associated with increased HC. Similarly, underexamined is the influence of race and ethnicity on the relationship of these characteristics to higher levels of HC. Design: This cross-sectional study aims to identify and assess the relative importance of factors associated with higher levels of HC, highlighting the role of race and ethnicity. Participants: Participants came from a national research panel survey (N = 1007). Measures: Participants completed a 4-item scale capturing key concepts of HC as well as questionnaires capturing demographic profiles, social support, social networking activities, and health status. Analysis: A stepwise multiple regression was used to identify significant predictors of HC. Results: Female and more educated participants report higher levels of HC. African American and Hispanic participants report higher levels of HC compared to white participants. Findings indicate social support, social network participation, education, cancer survivorship, and health status were positively associated with higher HC for the collective sample. However, results revealed variations in factors associated with higher HC when stratified by race/ethnicity. Conclusion: Findings suggest that interventions aiming to motivate cancer prevention behaviors within at-risk communities may find more success by incorporating factors that are aligned with increased HC among culturally diverse populations.
