ABSTRACT
Menstruation is normal bleeding as part of woman’s monthly cycle, taking place when the egg released by the ovary is not fertilized. Menstrual problem which frequently occurs includes menstrual pain or dysmenorrhea. Menstrual pain can be reduced pharmacologically and non-pharmacologically, one of which is using acupressure techniques. This study aims to identify whether the application of acupressure techniques has an effect on menstrual pain (dysmenorrhea). This research is a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest with a control group design. The participants involved 32 nursing students at Poltekkes Kemenkes Aceh who experienced dysmenorrhea, consisting of 10 students from year 1, 14 students from year 2 and 8 students from year 3. The class was divided into two: class X1 as an experimental class comprising 16 students and class X2 as a control class consisting of 16 female students. A total sampling technique was used to select the samples. Data were collected using SOP and NRS questionnaire and analyzed by means of the Wilcoxon signed rank test. The results found the p-value of 0.002, smaller than alpha 𝖺 (0.05). Thus, it can be concluded that there is an effect of acupressure on dysmenorrhoea in female students of Poltekkes Kemenkes Aceh.

ABSTRACT
Introduction: The increasing of the number of the students remains a problem in high colleges in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Confronted to a big number of students, diverse challenges are raised up in order to reach the level that we normally have to attend. This approach had fixed the inventory of fixtures on the number of the students is concerned and yet identify the challenge on it. Method: A transversal descriptive approach has been applied. Different data had been collected in the honors lists and in the register-book. From 1992 to 2016, 33.690 students were enrolled. Besides, 18 teachers have participated to our research. Results: In nursing, a sensitive increasing of a peak of 400 students from 2007 has been observed. In 2008, 1167 students in G1, 769 students in G2 and 539 students in G3 have been enrolled as a peak. In midwife section, in spite of the reformation, the number of students in different degrees remains high with a peak of 110 students in G1 in2009; of 137 students in G2 in 2010 and of 130 students in G3 in 2011. In EASI, the graduate cycle has enrolled more students in 2003 (a peak of more than 200 students). In the path of laboratory, nutrition and Management health Institution, the number of students was increasing every year. In the degrees where the approach of competency is applied, the ratio between teacher and students was of 1/13 in nursing and 1/29 in midwife. In training, the ratio was of 1/33. Conclusion: As far as the challenge is concerned, we have noticed the increasing of the number of students, the weak number of head of training and educated teachers in approach of competency, difficulty in applying teaching methods when the group of students to teach is increased and overweight in work.

Chik Ditiro. The results illustrate that there is a relationship between age (p = 0.000), education level (p = 0.009), working life (p = 0.001), and patient service management procedures (p = 0,000) with the performance of nurses in charge of patients. Other results found that there was no relationship between sex (p=0.567) and the performance of the nurse in charge of the patient.

ABSTRACT
Background: Low birth weight (LBW) is a condition in babies, which occurs when the bodyweight is < 2500 grams. Furthermore, it poses more threat to toddlers under the age of 2 years where it causes several developmental and growth disorders, such as stunting. Their condition continues to worsen up to the age of 5 when their immune system is not improved. Stunting is characterized by shortness and can be diagnosed based on the anthropometric index of the body length for age (PB/U) or height for age (TB/U) with a limit (z-score) below the standard deviation (< -2 SD). Method: The data used for this study consists of primary and secondary data. The primary data were collected using an interview approach by filling a questionnaire, while the secondary data were obtained with a KMS (Card towards Health) book for toddlers with a total of 107 samples. Result: The results showed that LBW has a significant effect on stunting, but it has no effect on developmental disorders. It also has a significant effect through stunting on developmental disorders, but it has no effect on stunting through developmental disorders.
