Abstract

Biology is a dynamic and constantly developing science. The Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia reported nine cases of childhood polio in East Java in January 2024. In addition, the Ministry of Health launched a pilot project to implement Wolbachia-infected mosquitoes as an innovation to control dengue fever in five big cities in Indonesia. This health problem is studied in biology lessons on viruses in senior high school. This paper aims to analyze the knowledge of the concepts of polioviruses and Wolbachia-infected mosquitoes in the biology teacher community in Sidoarjo. The respondents were 43 biology teachers in Sidoarjo. Respondents' prior knowledge was measured by pretest. After the respondent takes the pretest, the respondent gets the concept of the virus. After the material, respondents do a post-test. 11 pretest questions and 11 post-test questions are packaged in Google form. The results showed that all participants participated in the activity from start to finish, taking the pretest, listening to the material, and doing the post-test. The pretest mean score was 40.18, and the post-test mean score was 91.36. The highest pretest score was 81.81. The highest pretest score was 100. A total of 15 teachers (34.88%) were unsure that Wolbachia-infected mosquito was the best solution to reduce disease. Twenty-one respondents (48.83%) agreed mainly with society's concern that the Wolbachia-infected mosquito is dangerous for humans. Respondents' knowledge increased after receiving the concept of the virus

Abstract

E-cigarettes are gaining increasing popularity worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that there are nearly one billion (984 million) smokers globally, accounting for approximately one-fifth of the adult population. The use of e-cigarettes in Southeast Asian countries has also seen a rise since 2015, although at a slower pace compared to high-income countries. Presently, Indonesia has the highest prevalence of e-cigarette use in Southeast Asia at 11.8%, while Thailand has the lowest prevalence at 3.3%. Testes play a crucial role in male reproductive function. Decreased testicular size can lead to disruptions in testicular function, resulting in infertility. Testicular size is significantly correlated with sperm density in both fertile and infertile men. The objective of this study is to investigate changes in testicular weight due to exposure to conventional cigarettes, nicotine-containing, and nicotine-free e-cigarettes. This experimental research utilizes a post-test control only design. The sample comprises 24 male Wistar rats divided into four groups: Group A (control), Group B (exposed to conventional cigarettes), Group C (exposed to nicotine e-cigarettes), and Group D (exposed to non-nicotine e-cigarettes). Exposure to cigarettes lasts for 30 days, after which the rats undergo surgery to remove their testes. The research findings indicate a decrease in testicular size due to exposure to conventional cigarettes, nicotine e-cigarettes, and non-nicotine e-cigarettes. There is no significant difference observed among the three types of exposure. In conclusion, conventional cigarettes, nicotine-containing, and nicotine-free e-cigarettes elicit similar effects in reducing testicular weight in male Wistar rats.

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a lotion enriched with butterfly pea flower extract (Clitoria ternatea) in improving skin hydration in mice (Mus musculus) exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light. Butterfly pea flower extract is known to contain anthocyanins and phenolic compounds, which act as antioxidants and are thought to maintain skin moisture. The study design used an experimental method. Mice were randomly allocated into five groups (n = 6 per group), consisting of a negative control group, a positive control group, and three treatment groups receiving butterfly pea flower extract lotion at concentrations of 0.5%, 1%, and 2%.  Skin hydration levels were measured using a Scalar Moisture Checker after five minutes of UV exposure. The results showed a significant difference in hydration levels between groups. The 1% butterfly pea flower extract lotion showed a significant increase in skin hydration compared to the negative control (p < 0.05), indicating its optimal moisturizing efficacy among the tested formulations. These findings indicate that butterfly pea flower extract has potential as an active ingredient in lotion formulations to improve hydration in skin damaged by UV light exposure. This study provides a scientific basis for the use of butterfly pea flower extract as a natural moisturizing agent.

Abstract

HPV infection is caused by the Human Papillomavirus which attacks the skin and mucosa, thus causing genital warts (types 6 and 11), cervical cancer (types 16 and 18), and has the potential to develop into Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC), vulvar cancer, and oropharyngeal cancer. HPV vaccination is a primary prevention strategy that is mainly recommended for individuals aged 9–14 years before the initiation of sexual activity, but it can still be administered to women of reproductive age who remain at risk of HPV exposure through sexual contact. This study used a descriptive quantitative approach with observational methods and a cross-sectional design to describe the level of knowledge and behavior of HPV vaccination among women of reproductive age in Putat Jaya Village. Data collection was conducted in July–August 2025 by distributing questionnaires to 96 women of reproductive age, with sample determination using the Lemeshow formula and accidental sampling method. Analysis was conducted to determine the frequency distribution and percentage of knowledge and behavior related to HPV vaccination. The results showed that the level of respondents’ knowledge was classified as sufficient (62.5%), while vaccination behavior was still low (83.3%). This study shows that women of reproductive age in Putat Jaya Village, Surabaya, have a sufficient level of knowledge regarding HPV vaccination (60.2%), but low levels of practice (80.3%) are still seen in 60 respondents (60.2%).

Abstract

Pendahuluan: Sinar UV dapat mengaktivasi melanosit sehingga meningkatkan produksi melanin dan memicu terbentuknya hiperpigmentasi pada kulit. Lentigo solaris adalah salah satu hiperpigmentasi kulit yang terjadi akibat paparan sinar ultraviolet (UV) jangka panjang. Lentigo solaris tidak menimbulkan masalah kesehatan serius tetapi dapat mengganggu estetika kulit. Tujuan penelitian: Untuk mengevaluasi hubungan penggunaan tabir surya berbagai SPF terhadap pembentukan lentigo solaris pada individu yang terpapar sinar matahari. Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan desain case control dengan total 85 responden, terdiri dari 17 responden dengan lentigo solaris dan 68 responden tanpa lentigo solaris. Pengukuran lentigo solaris dilakukan menggunakan skin analyzer berdasarkan parameter UV Spots, sedangkan penggunaan tabir surya dinilai melalui kuesioner terstandarisasi. Analisis statistik dilakukan menggunakan uji Chi-Square dan perhitungan Odds Ratio (OR). Hasil: Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya hubungan bermakna antara penggunaan tabir surya dan kejadian lentigo solaris (p = 0,007). Responden yang tidak menggunakan tabir surya memiliki risiko 5,093 kali lebih besar mengalami lentigo solaris dibandingkan responden yang menggunakan tabir surya (95% CI: 1,643–15,785). Beberapa responden yang tidak menggunakan tabir surya tetapi tidak mengalami lentigo solaris, menunjukkan bahwa faktor lain seperti fototipe kulit dan intensitas paparan UV juga berperan. Kesimpulan: Penggunaan tabir surya merupakan faktor protektif penting dalam mencegah pembentukan lentigo solaris.

Abstract

Infeksi Human papilloma virus (HPV) merupakan masalah kesehatan yang dapat menyerang kulit dan mukosa serta berpotensi menyebabkan lesi pra-kanker hingga kanker serviks. Pencegahan primer yang paling efektif dilakukan melalui pemberian vaksin HPV pada anak perempuan usia sekolah sebelum terpapar aktivitas seksual. Namun, pelaksanaan program vaksinasi HPV masih menghadapi kendala berupa rendahnya penerimaan orang tua, yang berkaitan dengan pengetahuan dan sikap terhadap vaksin tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggambarkan tingkat pengetahuan dan sikap orang tua terkait vaksin HPV pada anak perempuan kelas IV sekolah dasar di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Asembagus. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain deskriptif observasional dengan pendekatan potong lintang. Populasi penelitian adalah seluruh orang tua dari anak perempuan kelas IV sekolah dasar di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Asembagus. Sampel penelitian berjumlah 100 responden yang dipilih menggunakan teknik cluster random sampling. Variabel penelitian meliputi pengetahuan dan sikap orang tua terhadap vaksin HPV. Pengumpulan data dilakukan pada bulan Agustus hingga September 2025 menggunakan kuesioner pengetahuan dan sikap yang telah diuji validitas dan reliabilitasnya. Data dianalisis secara deskriptif menggunakan distribusi frekuensi dan persentase. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar responden memiliki tingkat pengetahuan yang baik mengenai vaksin HPV sebesar 62%, sedangkan 38% responden memiliki pengetahuan kurang. Namun, mayoritas responden menunjukkan sikap negatif terhadap pemberian vaksin HPV, yaitu sebesar 89%, dan hanya 11% yang memiliki sikap positif. Berdasarkan hasil tersebut dapat disimpulkan bahwa meskipun sebagian besar orang tua memiliki pengetahuan yang baik tentang vaksin HPV, sikap terhadap vaksinasi HPV masih cenderung negatif, sehingga diperlukan upaya edukasi yang lebih komprehensif untuk meningkatkan penerimaan vaksin HPV.
