Abstract

Skin aging due to oxidative stress from free radicals from UV exposure and pollution requires natural antioxidants in topical products. Ethanol extract from green okra fruit (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench) rich in phenolics has strong potential to capture DPPH. This quantitative preclinical experimental study aims to test the effect of extract concentration (3%, 6%, 9%) on antioxidant activity and physical quality of face mist preparations. The population of face mist preparations; purposive samples include controls and three formulas with three replications. UV-Vis spectrophotometer instruments for IC50 DPPH at 516 nm (operating time 15 minutes), pH meter, Brookfield viscometer. Descriptive and inferential analysis One-Way ANOVA and Tukey HSD (SPSS, p <0.05). The results showed IC50: control 71.92 ppm (strong), Formula I 146.75 ppm (moderate), II 80.63 ppm (strong), III 78.72 ppm (strong); pH 4.57-5.15 (skin compatible); viscosity 1.22-3.75 mPa.s (meets <5 mPa.s); homogeneous. High concentrations significantly increase antioxidant activity (p<0.05). In conclusion, the 9% formula of optimized strong antioxidant face mist meets cosmetic standards, with anti-aging potential.

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has accelerated the adoption of technology in healthcare services, including the implementation of telepharmacy. The success of telepharmacy implementation depends on the readiness of pharmacists in terms of their knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions. This study aims to analyze the relationship between the level of knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of pharmacists towards the implementation of telepharmacy in the Sukoharjo Regency. This study is a qualitative descriptive study with a cross-sectional approach. The study sample consisted of 30 pharmacists working in pharmacies and community health centers in Sukoharjo Regency, selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using a questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability, as well as in-depth interviews. Data analysis included univariate and bivariate analysis with chi-square. The results showed that the majority of pharmacists had a good level of knowledge (mean 76.7%), indicating that pharmacists had a good understanding. Pharmacists' attitudes were in the adequate category (mean 60%), and pharmacists' perceptions were in the adequate category (mean 70%). Statistical analysis using chi-square indicated that there was a significant relationship between pharmacists' knowledge and perceptions, with a p-value of 0.014 (p <0.05). There was a significant relationship between the variables of attitude and perception, as indicated by a p-value of 0.001 (p <0.05). The conclusion of the implementation of tele-pharmacy is not only in terms of knowledge, but also in strengthening positive attitudes through supportive infrastructure, technical training, and clear regulations.

Abstract

Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver that is generally caused by a viral infection. There are five hepatitis viruses, namely Hepatitis A Virus (HAV), Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), Hepatitis D Virus (HDV) and Hepatitis E Virus (HEV). Hepatitis B is a liver disease caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV). HBV can cause acute or chronic liver inflammation, in a small number of cases it can progress to liver cirrhosis or liver cancer (Andriani et al., 2020). This study aims to determine the patient profile and use of hepatitis B drugs and evaluate Hepatitis B treatment in patients at the Outpatient Installation of Dr. Moewardi Regional Hospital using a non-experimental descriptive observational method with retrospective quantitative data collection. The results of the study showed that of the 99 hepatitis B patients, the majority were male (67.68%) and aged >55 years (46.5%). Most patients received antiviral therapy (60.61%), with tenofovir being the most commonly used drug (78.78%), followed by entecavir (17.17%). Evaluation of treatment suitability showed that all doses and frequencies of antiviral and hepatoprotective therapy administered were in accordance with national guidelines and MIMS references (100% compliance). Curcuma was the most frequently used hepatoprotective agent (64.64%). This indicates that the use of hepatitis B medications at Dr. Moewardi Regional Hospital is in accordance with applicable therapy standards. Based on a study of 99 hepatitis B patients, most patients received antiviral and supportive therapy according to guidelines. The use of medications, both antiviral and hepatoprotective, was appropriate in type, dose, and frequency. Patient management demonstrated rational and clinically appropriate therapy.
