1. General Instructions

Jurnal Kesehatan (JK) published a study that discusses the science of nursing, midwifery, dental health, pharmacy, environmental health, nutrition, health analysts, occupational health, public health, and science technology. In particular, studies that identify health problems and provide possible solutions for a population.

Editors, reviewers, and the editorial team of Jurnal Kesehatan are committed to reviewing it consistently and efficiently. The manuscript received will be reviewed by experts in a blind review. Experience formatting and copying manuscripts and posting them online as an article after they are received. The final version is published in print and optimized for search engines, and it is indexed in the databases DOAJ, Sinta, Google Scholar, CrossRef, and Portal Garuda.

Because the pages that can be issued each year are limited, conformity is an important consideration in the review process. To facilitate the review, the editor-in-chief sees all the manuscripts submitted and independently decides whether an appropriate text is to be examined by a member of the editorial board or reviewer. The manuscript beyond the scope of JK returned without delay a full review. Authors can contact the editor-in-chief in advance to inquire about the possibility of their research topics being suitable for review.
Submission and questions are encouraged.

2. Type of Manuscripts

Articles Research/ Research Article

Research reports are of interest to the scientific community in the health field and will be published as research articles. A manuscript has a well-described hypothesis and measurable results and has not been previously explored.

Review/reviews

Community scientists in the field of health can issue a review. The review contains the latest review of the science of nursing, midwifery, dental health, pharmacy, environmental health, nutrition, health analysts, occupational health, public health, and science technology. In addition, a review is published as a guide for instructors in the health field. Authors are encouraged to elaborate on the background and history of previous research and quote-review previously published reviews. Generally, the review description contains the latest information (from the last few years).
A comprehensive review and comment will be published as "Critical Reviews". Critical reviews are intended to discuss the literature that has been published; they are not intended to present a new review, reanalysis of data, or further analysis. JK will review the appropriate review as research articles. The Editor-in-Chief or the author can initiate critical reviews. To review initiated by the author before writing a review, the authors suggested an outline handed to the review's editor so that it complies with JK. The scope of review can be determined before submission. This article is generally limited to five printed pages.

4. Manuscript File Format

File Word (.doc or .rtf) is a file format used to submit the manuscript. It is necessary to facilitate the manuscript revision process. The font used is a standard font, Times New Roman.

5. Manuscript Preparation

Jurnal Kesehatan is limited to the number of pages (max 10 pages) that can be published, and the length of the article is considered in the editorial process. Authors are encouraged to explain clearly and concisely. The manuscript is certainly one space, and there is no recommended page break (continuous file). The manuscripts not per the terms may be returned to the author.  The manuscripts must be written in English.

The manuscript submitted contains:

Title
Abstract
Introduction
Method
Results
Discussion
Conclusion
References

ad. a. TITLE

The title is structured as a declarative statement and focuses on the results presented in the manuscript (max 18 words). Punctuation "semicolon (;)" is not recommended. The names of all authors without a degree (first name, middle name, last name) and the addresses of departments and institutions are clearly explained. All the author's last name must be exactly as it should appear on Google Scholar. Please consider this carefully, especially for writers with names that include hyphens and prefixes. After publishing, JK will not replace the file to correct the author's name.

ad. b. ABSTRACT

Abstract background containing the results and conclusions of the methods described clearly and concisely. The background explains the context of the research, the exact purpose, and the specific hypotheses to be tested. The method describes the study design and identifies specific methods and procedures. The results showed that the most important results of the study included the main data and statistical analysis. The main conclusion is in the form of a summary of the research results (avoid generalization). Below the abstract, provide and identify keywords or short phrases, including a group of subjects, improving the ability to find the manuscript. No adjectives should be used. Please note that during the delivery of the manuscript, the author will be asked to provide keywords to assist editors in determining the reviewers appropriate for manuscripts. Keywords for search reviewers are the most fundamental word in the manuscript and may differ from the keyword list for publication.

ad. c. INTRODUCTION

The background research and its specific objectives should not be a thorough literature review. State the specific purpose or hypothesis of this study.

ad. d. METHOD

The method describes the study design, materials, and equipment, with a model number or a catalog, if necessary. Explain how the kit, analysis, and commercial laboratories are used. Quote the reference of the methods listed, if possible, and briefly explain the modification. Research using humans and animals as objects. The study report must state that an ethics committee approved the protocol. Documents can be uploaded as a statement of additional files. Objects such as animal research are necessary to explain how the animals are removed, as well as control and treatment groups or proband experimental animals. Information on age, weight, sex, race, described for the human object, and a description of sex or strain to the experimental animals, including suppliers of experimental animals.

The method also describes the statistical tests used and the degree of probability (p) indicated where differences were considered significant. If the data presented in the text, indicate what they represent (i.e., Mean ± SEM). Indicate whether the data is transformed before analysis. Define the statistical computer program that is used. The results of the analysis are shown in the data tables and figures. Letters and symbols to show a significant difference, as well as footnotes, tables, and figures. Provide statistical variability according to the estimated error variance (SD or SEM) of the group's mean. Standard ANOVA methodology assumes homogeneous variance. If the error variance is tested and found heterogeneous, change the data before ANOVA or use nonparametric tests. Use arch curves to discuss the calculation of the variability and procedures. If the reported P values are insignificant, use only 2 digits past the decimal (for example, P = 0.15). Serve significant P values up to a maximum of 4 decimal places (for example, P<0.0001); Useless acceptable. The coefficient is now a maximum of 2 decimals (e.g. R = 0.87, R2 = 0.16, ff.).

ad. e. RESULTS

The results are described without repeating the discussion's methodology, introduction, or content. Duplication of data from tables or figures in the text is avoided.
Results using the unit, it is necessary to metric units (e.g., meters, kilograms, and L for height, weight, and volume), such as Celsius (° C). For data reporting, the use of SI units (le System Internationale d'Unites) (17) is preferred (i.e., Mmol / L, g / L) but is not mandatory. Conventional units such as mg / dL mg / mL can be accepted, using L instead of l, for a liter. The units for the analytes/compounds are equally consistent throughout the manuscript. Instinctively puts a replacement unit in the text or gives a conversion factor in a footnote in a table or legend acceptable image. The unit should not be pluralized (i.e., Wk and not wks) or followed by a period.

A useful site is:

Conversion clinical SI: http://dwjay.tripod.com/conversion.html

Meanwhile, the figures presented to a variable must be properly and consistently presented. Use no more than three significant figures (less, if appropriate) or justification for higher accuracy.
Tables or figures, adapted or quoted from another source, must include the source in a footnote or legend images. Each table should have a clear title but be concise. Information about the method or material explanations can be included in a footnote to the table, but the repetition of the methodology should be minimized. Indicate the unit of measure after the variables in line, above the first value in each column, or centered on all columns of the units where applicable. Statistics show variability (i.e., SD, combined SEM) and the significance of the difference between data. Eliminate internal horizontal and vertical rules before submitting your table.

ad. f. DISCUSSION

The discussion explains the importance of the findings in the literature related to putting them into context. The explanation of the discussion should be clear and concise.
ad. g. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS The main conclusion is the result of the research (avoid generalization); refer to the description in the discussion and answer the research objectives. The conclusions are described in the form of points or narrative, logical and precise.

ad. h. REFERENCES

There is no limit to the number of quotations permitted, citing the latest literature comprehensively. Note that there should be no line numbers in line with the title "References" or along the References section. References are written according to the rules of APA Style. All references in the library panel should be referred to in the text by stating the author's name and year of publication reference. If there are more than two authors, use "et al." after the first author's name. Format: (name of the author, year of publication), (name of the first author and the author's name 2, year of publication), (name of first author et al., year of publication).
