Abstract

Pediatric cancer, including leukemia and brain tumors, is increasingly diagnosed, with about 400,000 cases annually. Conventional radiation therapy, while effective, can lead to long-term side effects, including secondary cancers. This review paper aims at discussing what proton beam therapy (PBT) has to offer for children suffering from cancer looking at its advantages and disadvantages. Literature on PBT and conventional radiotherapy was reviewed to compare treatment efficacy and side effects. PBT allows precise tumor targeting while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue, resulting in fewer long-term effects. Studies show higher conformity indexes for PBT, reducing risks of growth disorders and cognitive impairment. Proton beam therapy shows significant promise for improving pediatric cancer treatment outcomes and quality of life. However, high costs and limited long-term data hinder its broader adoption, necessitating further research to optimize its use.

Abstract

Uji Konsentrasi Hambat Minimum (KHM) adalah suatu uji yang digunakan untuk mengetahui konsentrasi senyawa antibakteri terendah yang masih dapat menghambat pertumbuhan organisme tertentu. Prosedur ini digunakan untuk menentukan konsentrasi senyawa antibakteri yang masih efektif untuk mengontrol infeksi pada pasien. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian eksperimental yaitu dengan melakukan uji konsentrasi hambat minimum dengan metode turbidimetri ekstrak etanol daun Acacia nilotica L dengan 4 konsentrasi ekstrak, yaitu 20%, 22,5%, 25% dan 27,5% dengan 5 kali replikasi terhadap pertumbuhan Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923. Didapatkan nilai Konsentrasi Hambat Minimum (KHM) sebesar 22,5%. Hal ini membuktikan bahwa senyawa antibakteri pada esktrak etanol daun Acacia nilotica L. mampu dijadikan sebagai bahan aktif dalam melawan infeksi yang alami.Kata Kunci : Acacia nilotica L., Konsentrasi Hambat Minimum, S. aureus

Abstract

Stunting is a failure to thrive due to chronic malnutrition, psycho-social stimulation, and exposure to repeated infections, especially in the first 1,000 days of life. Can be eliminated if growth from newborn to toddler is always monitored. Data from the Kebayoran Baru District Health Center as of December 31, 2018, there were 19% of infants did not weigh themselves regularly. The low participation of mothers in weighing their toddlers regularly every month at Posyandu is a problem in itself. It is necessary to examine and examine further personality, Locus of control, and mother's knowledge which will influence the behavior of the mother's responsibility to regularly weigh her child every month. This research is analytically descriptive with a total of 360 mothers who have toddlers in the working area of the Kebayoran Baru Health Center, data were collected using a questionnaire with the big five personality variables, Locus of control, and knowledge about stunting, data were processed using The analysis was performed with a statistical test using correlation test Pearson's. The results showed that education level 60% graduated from high school, 54.4% were aged 25-34 years, and 52.2% had high knowledge about stunting. The biggest personality type (187 people) is agreeableness, 83% have an Internal Locus of Control. There is a correlation between neuroticism personality type and responsible behavior for weighing toddlers (p=0.005) but there is no correlation between Locus of Control (p=0.067) and level of knowledge with responsible behavior for weighing toddlers (p=0.088).
