Abstract

Preeclampsia remains a primary driver of maternal mortality in Indonesia, highlighting the urgency of addressing maternal nutritional status as a critical, modifiable risk factor through targeted community programs. This community service aims to elevate pregnant women's literacy regarding balanced prenatal nutrition for preeclampsia prevention while mapping their baseline nutritional profiles and risk factors. The program integrated comprehensive health screenings (anthropometric and blood pressure measurements, and medical history assessments) with interactive video screenings and hands-on cooking demonstrations featuring local fish resources. Clinical screenings revealed a high prevalence of metabolic risks: 40% of participants were obese and 35% presented with anemia. A remarkably strong positive correlation was observed between BMI and MUAC (r=0.788; p<0.001). Post-intervention assessments demonstrated a substantial surge in nutritional knowledge, most notably regarding calcium requirements (131.6%) and protein needs (104.8%). Ultimately, combining visual education with experiential cooking workshops serves as an effective, highly practical strategy to improve maternal nutritional literacy and reinforce preeclampsia prevention frameworks at primary healthcare levels.

Abstract

The IL-10 –819 T/C promoter polymorphism influences cytokine production in leprosy, yet its functional interplay with serum IL-10 and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in Indonesian populations remains undefined. This study investigated its association with multibacillary (MB) leprosy susceptibility and systemic mediator levels. In a case–control design, 35 MB patients and 35 healthy controls from Banyuasin Regency, South Sumatra, were enrolled. PCR-RFLP was used for genotyping, and ELISA was used to quantify serum IL-10 and PGE2. Genotype and allele frequencies did not differ between groups (OR = 1.121; 95% CI: 0.439–2.863; p = 0.811), indicating no susceptibility effect. Serum IL-10 was significantly elevated in patients (median 2.15 pg/mL) versus controls (1.23 pg/mL; p = 0.033). Within cases, IL-10 exhibited a C-allele dose-dependent gradient (TT: 3.82; CT: 4.96; CC: 16.20 pg/mL), though statistically underpowered (H = 0.452; p = 0.798). PGE2 showed no intergroup differences (p = 0.142), nor correlations with genotype (p = 0.915) or IL-10 (rₛ = −0.057; p = 0.639). The IL-10 –819 T/C variant does not predict MB susceptibility but, in a pathogen-context-dependent manner, functionally amplifies IL-10 production. This genetic effect operates independently of systemic PGE2 regulation, highlighting distinct immunomodulatory pathways and supporting the CC genotype as a potential biomarker of immune-suppression severity.
