Abstract

Quality control is a series of checks performed to evaluate the testing process. Increased automation in the clinical laboratory field has increased the need for QC materials for laboratory performance monitoring. One of them is in the Clinical Chemistry laboratory where before conducting an examination, calibration of equipment must be carried out using commercial control materials. Commercial control serum can be purchased at a high price. Thus, it requires homemade alternative control materials in the form of pooled sera. The purpose of the activity is to provide knowledge about the importance of utilizing pooled sera as an alternative control material for strengthening internal quality in the laboratory. The activity method used is socialization and education through poster media with the aim of increasing knowledge and understanding in officers about the importance of utilizing pooled sera as an alternative control material for strengthening internal quality in the laboratory. There is an understanding and improvement in the results of education on laboratory staff with a pretest value of 45.75 and a posttest of 85.83. Laboratory RSUD Kayuagung have understood the utilization of pooled sera as an alternative control material for internal quality assurance in the laboratory.

Abstract

One of the key factors in the development of psoriasis is inflammation. In people with psoriasis, the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy skin cells, causing them to grow too quickly. This leads to the buildup of dead skin cells on the surface of the skin. Vitamin D can help to reduce inflammation by suppressing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. This study aimed to conduct a systematic review to explore the potential of vitamin D supplementation in psoriasis. The literature search process was carried out on various databases (PubMed, Web of Sciences, EMBASE, Cochrane Libraries, and Google Scholar) regarding the potential of vitamin D supplementation in psoriasis. This study follows the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis (PRISMA) recommendations. Vitamin D inhibits the inflammatory process in psoriasis by inhibiting the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, activating anti-inflammatory, immune cells, and protecting cells from damage caused by inflammation.
