The hemodialysis process is essential for patients with chronic kidney disease to maintain their lives. However, this routine and continuous process can cause complications in the body. Patients undergoing hemodialysis experience changes in functional status across physical, psychological, social, and environmental health domains. This study was carried out to determine the effect ESA (Exercise and Self-Affirmation) intervention on the functional status of patients with chronic kidney disease. Previous studies show that physical exercise combined with self-affirmation interventions can improve mood and cognitive function. Self-affirmation has been shown to reduce depression levels, improve sleep quality, enhance social participation, and ultimately improve the quality of life. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group, involving thirty- nine patients in the control group and thirty-nine patients in the intervention group at the hemodialysis unit of PKU Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta. Functional status was assessed using the SF- 36 questionnaire and analyzed using paired t-tests for paired groups and independent t-tests for unpaired groups. The average SF-36 score before the ESA intervention was 44.53, and the average score after the intervention was 69.37. The t-test results showed a significance value of 0.000 (p<0.05). These results show a significant difference between the pretest and posttest results in the intervention group after the ESA intervention. In conclusion, the ESA intervention can improve the functional status of hemodialysis patients, so that their physical and mental function is better. The ESA intervention positively affects the functional status of patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis.

Teenagers more often consume foods that are high in fat and glucose than vegetable and fruit consumption. This can trigger the onset of diabetes mellitus, especially in adolescents who have Diabetes Mellitus (DM) parents. The purpose of this study was to determine the differences in consumption patterns and status between adolescents and parents of DM and not DM. This cross sectional study involved 42 adolescents as samples, consisting of 21 adolescents with DM parents and 21 adolescents who were not DM parents, randomly using simle rendom sampling technique, the differences between variables were analyzed using the Independent T-test and Mann Whitney test (α=0.05). The results showed that there were no differences in the consumption patterns of high Glycaemic Index (GI) foods (p = 0.229) and fruit and vegetables (p = 0.14) between adolescents with DM parents and non-DM parents, but adolescents with DM parents tended to consume more high GI foods than adolescents with non-DM parents. There were differences in nutritional status between adolescents with DM parents and non-DM parents (p = 0.036). The conclusion of this study is that most adolescents with DM parents are very overweight at the time of nutritional status. In adolescents, it is necessary to reduce the frequency of consumption of foods with high IG and to increase the consumption of fruit and vegetables and physical activity, especially in adolescents with DM parents.
