Abstract

Utilisation of aqueous extract of karamunting leaves as adjunctive therapy in patients with type II diabetes mellitus: education and household-scale production of karamunting water infusion/extracts Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic condition caused by high blood glucose levels due to insulin deficiency or the body's inability to use insulin properly. This community service aims to increase knowledge about Diabetes mellitus and the utilization of herbal plants Karamunting leaves to lower blood sugar. The target of the activity is the community in the working area of the Gandus Palembang Health Center, totaling 30 participants. The method in this service is in the form of socialization of herbal plants of Karamunting leaves to lower blood sugar. The results of this community service are an increase in knowledge and application of herbal plants of Karamunting leaves to reduce blood sugar in the community. The method used was counseling about diabetes mellitus and the benefits of Karamunting leaves, demonstration and assistance in making Karamunting leaf infusion, and evaluation. The results of this community service activity are knowledge about diabetes mellitus increased marked by the activeness of answering questions given and the independent use of Karamunting leaves in handling diabetes mellitus.

Abstract

Water pollution is a pressing environmental issue that adversely affects aquatic ecosystems and the usability of water resources. The Batang Masumai River, located in Merangin Regency, Jambi Province, is an essential water source for local communities but faces escalating pollution challenges due to industrial, agricultural, and residential activities. This study analyzes the pollution levels of the Batang Masumai River by assessing seven key parameters: temperature, pH, Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Total Suspended Solids (TSS), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD). A quantitative observational approach was employed, utilizing secondary data collected from 2021 to 2024. The results were evaluated against Class II water quality standards as stipulated in Government Regulation Number 22 of 2021. The findings indicate that while parameters such as temperature and pH generally adhered to acceptable standards, others, notably TSS, BOD, and COD, frequently exceeded the regulatory limits, particularly in 2021. This suggests substantial pollution stemming from untreated wastewater and soil erosion. Although improvements were observed in subsequent years, several parameters remained problematic, posing ongoing risks to aquatic ecosystems and water resource sustainability. These findings underscore the urgent need for enhanced wastewater treatment systems, stricter enforcement of environmental regulations, and the adoption of sustainable watershed management practices to restore and safeguard the ecological health of the river.

Abstract

Rhodomyrtus tomentosa, yang dikenal sebagai karamunting, menarik perhatian karena potensi perannya dalam pengelolaan diabetes melitus tipe 2 (DMT2), yaitu gangguan metabolik kronis dengan prevalensi yang terus meningkat secara global. Studi ini mengkaji potensi antidiabetes dari R. tomentosa melalui tinjauan pustaka sistematis terhadap artikel ilmiah yang dipublikasikan antara tahun 2013 hingga 2023. Data dikumpulkan dari berbagai basis data terpercaya seperti Google Scholar, PubMed, NCBI, Scopus, dan Elsevier, dengan total 11 studi yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa berbagai ekstrak daun R. tomentosa—etanol, air, infusa, dan mikroemulsi—efektif dalam menurunkan kadar glukosa darah, meningkatkan sekresi insulin, serta memperbaiki jaringan pankreas pada model hewan. Senyawa bioaktif yang berperan antara lain flavonoid, saponin, tanin, fenol, tectoridin, dan engeletin. Mekanisme kerjanya meliputi aktivitas antioksidan, penghambatan enzim α-glukosidase dan α-amilase, serta stimulasi produksi insulin. Meskipun hasil praklinis menjanjikan, diperlukan penelitian klinis lebih lanjut untuk memastikan keamanan dan efektivitas terapeutiknya pada manusia

Abstract

Pesticide poisoning, especially paraquat, is a significant health problem for agricultural workers, including sugarcane plantation workers in Indonesia. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between pesticide use and hemoglobin levels. This study is a descriptive study to find the correlation between paraquat pesticide exposure and hemoglobin levels. Quota sampling technique was used to collect 51 samples. Data were collected through interviews, observation of the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), and measurement of hemoglobin levels by laboratory methods on 51 workers exposed to paraquat pesticide. The Chi-Square test was used to analyze the relationship between the use of PPE and the level of pesticide poisoning as measured by hemoglobin levels. The results showed that incomplete use of PPE was associated with a decrease in workers' hemoglobin levels. As many as 40% of workers who did not use PPE experienced a significant decrease in hemoglobin levels compared to workers who used complete PPE. The calculated Chi-Square value is 6.45 with a p value = 0.011 (p < 0.05) which indicates a significant relationship between the use of PPE and hemoglobin levels in sugarcane plantation workers. Based on these results, it can be concluded that proper use of PPE can reduce the risk of pesticide poisoning and maintain hemoglobin levels at normal levels.

Abstract

Anemia is a condition characterized by a deficiency of hemoglobin in the blood, which can impair productivity and health, particularly among vulnerable populations such as Islamic boarding school students (santri). Education and the utilization of herbal plants have potential as effective measures for anemia prevention. However, these approaches are underutilized in this population. This study aimed to enhance the knowledge and skills of santri regarding anemia prevention, the use of herbal plants, and health screening at the Modern Thawalib Sriwijaya Islamic Boarding School in Palembang, involving 40 participants (67.5% male, 32.5% female). Activities included educational sessions, health screenings, and guidance on herbal plant cultivation. Evaluations were conducted using pretest and posttest assessments. Results demonstrated significant improvements in knowledge (from 30% to 95%), attitudes (from 15% to 65%), and practices (from 47.5% to 82.5%). Hemoglobin screening revealed moderate anemia in 42.5% of participants, mild and severe anemia in 10% each, and no anemia in 37.5% of participants. Educational interventions effectively improved the understanding, attitudes, and behaviors of santri concerning anemia and the preventive potential of herbal plants.
