This comprehensive journal edition highlights a diverse spectrum of public health, clinical, and health management research, focusing heavily on maternal-pediatric care, adolescent reproductive health, and chronic disease management. Key studies in maternal and child well-being address critical nutritional issues like stunting and wasting, maternal influences on preschooler screen time, and non pharmacological pain management for children, while adolescent research explores the lifestyle factors such as fast food consumption affecting menstrual cycle regularity and period pain. Furthermore, the issue provides deep insights into chronic care by examining how self efficacy, health education, and mental well being (like hopelessness) influence dietary and medication adherence in diabetic patients, alongside alternative interventions like foot massages for hemodialysis patients. Complemented by evaluations of digital hospital queue management systems and toxicological DNA studies on pesticide exposure, this edition delivers holistic, evidence based strategies to enhance both clinical outcomes and community health systems.
