Abstract

Highlights : • Alternative medicine is needed for pityriasis versicolor because there are recurrence cases and resistance to antifungal agents. • Kinar leaf ethanol extract cannot inhibit the growth of Malassezia furfur. • Further studies are suggested on the type of solvent and appropriate concentration to attract more bioactive compounds. Abstract : Pityriasis versicolor is a superficial dermatomycosis that can decrease human self-confidence. This infection is caused by the fungus Malassezia furfur. Eighty percent of recurrence cases after treatment and resistance to antifungal agents were found. Therefore, alternative medicine is needed. Kinar (Kleinhovia hospita Linn.) is a tropical plant that have bioactive compounds, such as alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, and saponins. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of kinar leaf extract against the growth of Malassezia furfur. This research was a laboratory experimental study using paper disc diffusion method. Kinar leaves (green and yellow leaves) were macerated using 96% ethanol and made into concentrations of 10%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100%. As much as 200 mg of ketoconazole was used as a positive control and distilled water as a negative control then tested on Malassezia furfur using Sabouraud dextrose agar (SDA). The parameter observed was the clear zone formed around the paper disc. The tests and observations showed that there was a clear zone formed around the paper disc. It means that the kinar leaf extract cannot inhibit the growth of Malassezia furfur.

Factors that can trigger headaches are poor quality of sleep and stress. Objective: This study was conducted with the aim of the influence of sleep quality and stress on the incidence of headaches in high school students in Ambon City. Methods: This type of research is an analytical observational approach, cross-sectional design with a sample size of 367 and using accidental sampling techniques. The analysis used in this study is univariate and bivariate analysis using the chi-square test. Results: The results of this study obtained the majority of respondents who experienced headaches had poor sleep quality 10.90% and the majority of respondents who experienced headaches had moderate stress levels 8.45%. Based on the results of bivariate analysis using the Chi-square test showed that there was a relationship between sleep quality and headaches, with a value of (p =0.014) and the results of the Fisher test showed that there was a relationship between sleep quality and stress levels, with a value of (p =0.000). Further analysis using multivariate tests showed that stress levels were the most influential variables on headaches with a value of (p =0.000). Conclussion: Thus, this study shows the importance of the role of parents and schools in terms of rest and sleep and problems being faced both at school and at home.
