Health literacy is an important outcome of the discussion of school-related health education and health promotion in the 21st century. Although the improvement of health literacy at an early age is increasingly recognized and few interventions show the development of children´s health literacy, still there is little research in this area. The purpose of the study was to examine the enhancement of health literacy among children in a physical activity-based program at elementary school. In total, 137 students aged 6–12 years participated in the program, which included health knowledge transfer in child-appropriate games and exercises. Participants´ health literacy was assessed using the HLS-Child-Q15-DE at the beginning and the end of the program. The instrument measures the access, understanding, appraisal and application of health-related information on a four-point Likert-type scale. As expected, the Wilcoxon signed-rank test revealed significant increases in self-reported health literacy over time. The results show that the degree of change in health literacy was not associated with gender or age. The results suggest that the physical activity-based program has the potential to improve elementary school children´s health literacy, even though in a single group pilot study.

ABSTRACT Anemia of pregnant women results in premature birth, maternal and child mortality and infectious diseases, an anemia that is often experienced by pregnant women is iron deficiency anemia. It is estimated that 41.8% of pregnant women worldwide experience anemia, at least halfof which is due to iron deficiency. Pregnant women are declared anemic if hemoglobin is lessthan 11 mg / dl. Based on the 2013 National Health Survey Data, the rate of anemia in pregnant women is 40.1%, this condition indicates that anemia is quite high in Indonesia. If it is estimated from 2007-2013 the anemia prevalence remains 40%, there will be 18 thousand maternal deaths of year due to bleeding after childbirth.Based on a preliminary study conducted by researchers at the Tegalrejo Health Center on November 1  2017 date was obtained that there were 242 pregnant women and 111 experienced anemia, the data showed that pregnant women with anemia were 46%.This Research aims to determine the effectiveness of vegetable spinach and Fe tablets to increase hemoglobin levels in pregnant women at the Tegalrejo Health Center Methods: This research using the Quasy Exsperiment research method.The research design used Pretest Postest One Design Group. The population in this study were all pregnant women TM II and TM III who experienced anemia. The sampling technique used in this research is Purposive Sampling. Data analysis uses the Wilcoxson Signed Rank Test These results indicate that there is an increase in hemoglobin of pregnant women between before and after being given spinach and Fe tablets. Spinach and Fe tablets are effective in increasing hemoglobin levels of pregnant women in Tegalrejo Health Center Yogyakarta Keywords: Spinach, Fe tablets, Pregnant Women, Anemia

Aims and objectives: This study aims to redress the paucity of research on the semantics of loanwords, by extending and empirically testing Backus’s ((2001). The role of semantic specificity in insertional codeswitching: Evidence from Dutch-Turkish. Jacobson, Rodolfo (Hg): Codeswitching Worldwide. Bd, 2, 125–154) Specificity Hypothesis – ‘Embedded language elements in code-switching have a high degree of semantic specificity’ (p. 128). Approach: Adopting a concept-based approach to examine loanwords in a large, reliable corpus, the study pursues the following question: Do loanwords have a high degree of semantic specificity relative to their receiving-language equivalents? Specificity is operationalized as an entropy measure of the target word’s environment, the assumption being that more specific words have less variety in their surrounding context. Data and analysis: To test this hypothesis, Anglicisms in a 24-million-word newspaper corpus of Argentine Spanish were processed in three stages: detecting loanwords, selecting semantic equivalents, and measuring specificity. Findings/conclusions: A Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test revealed that loanwords receive significantly lower entropy scores, that is, they are more specific than their Spanish equivalents. The results suggest a possible motive for adopting loanwords when terms already exist in the source language, namely, to utilize words that provide more nuanced meaning. Originality: Methodologically, this study offers innovative applications of computational methods to loanword research, employing a distributional model to measure entropy. Theoretically, it addresses an underrepresented aspect of loanword adoption, semantics, by extending Backus’s hypothesis to loanwords and increasing its scope to data often viewed as ‘monolingual’. Significance/implications: The conclusions offer novel perspectives on loanwords with existing semantic equivalents, often viewed as ‘unnecessary’ when compared to loanwords that introduce new concepts into the recipient language (e.g. blog). With the notion of specificity, we may understand these loanwords as disruptors to the semantic system of the recipient language, dividing up the semantic space formerly occupied solely by the native equivalent, thus increasing the level of nuance expressed in the original concept.

Menstruation is one factor that can reduce hemoglobin levels in young women. Hemoglobin is a protein in the form of an iron-rich oxygen-carrying pigment. Pharmacological therapy that can increase hemoglobin levels include the consumption of honey. This study aims to determine the effect of honey consumption on changes in hemoglobin levels during menstruation in adolescent girls at Ma'had Aly Pondok Boarding School Salafiyah Syafi'iyah Sukorejo Situbondo Year 2017 This research design using pre-experiment design. A sample of 15 respondents who confirm the inclusion criteria. Sampling technique is by proportional stratified random sampling . From the 15 respondents , all of them in the given consumption of honey . The data obtained were processed with SPSS 16 software. The Analysis of the data used is the Wilcoxon signed rank test trials . The results showed that the effect of honey on changes in Haemoglobin levels during menstruation in adolescent girls, performed by statistical test using Wilcoxon test with the help of SPSS for 16.0 windows obtained result p = 0,001 <α = 0,05. Thus Ho is rejected and H1 accepted which means there is influence of giving honey to changes of hemoglobin level during menstruation in adolescent daughter. Honey is able to increase hemoglobin levels because the iron content contained in honey is very effective in raising the levels of hemoglobin in the blood, especially during menstruation. Therefore, it is expected that honey still needs to be continued so that the risk of anemia in adolescent menstruation can be minimized

Uric acid is the final result of purine metabolism in the body, which excreted through urine. In gout conditions, there is uric acid crystals deposit in joints. In the women's uric acid levels did not increase until menopause because estrogen helps to increase spending uric acid in the kidneys by reducing the amount of uric acid reabsorption. Phaleria macrocarpa (Scheff) Boerl is a plant that has medicinal properties to treat gout because Phaleria macrocarpa (Scheff) Boerl contains flavonoids that can lower uric acid by the mechanism of resistance to the activity of xanthine oxidase on purine bases so that it will reduce production of uric acid. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of giving Phaleria macrocarpa (Scheff) Boerl’s decoction water on uric acid’s level in postmenopausal women in RW 01 Kelurahan Kebonsari Sukun Malang. This research is Pre Experiment with one group pre-post test design. Using 24 postmenopausal women who suffer from uric acid with total sampling technique. Test data analysis using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test on the significant level α = 0.05. The results showed 87.5% of respondents had decreased levels of uric acid and 12.5% of respondents did not experience changes in uric acid’s level or are likely to remain. Results of analysis of test data with Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test Zhitung obtained (-4.02) < ZTable (1,96). It’s means there is influence of Phaleria macrocarpa (Scheff) Boerl’s decoction water to reduction of uric acid levels in postmenopausal women. Referring to these results it is expected that Phaleria macrocarpa (Scheff) Boerl can be used as therapy in the treatment of gout. Keywords : Water decoction of Mahkota Dewa, Levels of Uric Acid, Female Menopause
