Abstract

Background: School-aged children between 6-12 years are a vulnerable group that could be affected by malnutrition, which may cause growth failure and affect their school achievement. East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, is known as the province with the highest cases of malnutrition. Objective: This study aimed to determine serum total protein and albumin levels among malnourished elementary-aged children. Serum total protein and albumin are biochemical parameters that give valuable data due to malnutrition. Methods: This study employed a case-control design. Purposive sampling was used to select the samples with a total of 90 children aged 6 – 12 years, of which 45 were assigned to a case group and a control group. The children’s blood was collected and analyzed using Riele Photometer 5010. The Biuret method was applied for total protein and bromocresol green for albumin serum. Independent sample t-test with a significant value <0.05 was used to determine the difference between mean total protein and albumin levels. Results: The percentage of low total protein levels in malnourished children was 36%, and the percentage of low albumin levels was 27%. The mean level of total protein and albumin was found to be lower in malnourished than in well-nourished children, 6.324±1.1748 g/dL vs. 7.047±0.6330 g/dL (p = <0.001), and 3.927 g/dL±0.7779 g/dL vs. 4.242 g/dL±0.5272 (p = 0.016), respectively. Conclusion: There were significant differences in total protein and albumin serum among malnourished and well-nourished children. The results may serve as basic information for further studies or to create an intervention to reduce malnutrition.

Abstract

Recent innovations in the treatment of degenerative diseases have become a major focus of efforts to improve the quality of life of patients. With the development of technology and scientific research, there are opportunities to develop more effective and innovative treatment methods. In this study, we aim to explore recent innovations in the treatment of degenerative diseases, the purpose of which is to showcase the latest developments in the field of medicine that can provide new solutions in the management of degenerative diseases. The research method involved a literature review of recent studies in the treatment of degenerative diseases, as well as an analysis of relevant research data. The results showed some promising recent innovations, such as gene therapy, the use of stem cell technology, nanotechnology in drug delivery, and electromagnetic field approaches in medicine. These innovations offer the potential to improve treatment effectiveness and reduce the negative impact of these degenerative diseases. From the results of this study, it can be concluded that recent innovations in the treatment of degenerative diseases offer new hope in the management of these diseases. Technological developments and scientific research provide opportunities for the development of more effective and innovative treatment methods. However, despite significant progress in this field, further research is needed to evaluate the effectiveness, safety and sustainability of these innovations. This conclusion underscores the importance of collaboration between scientists, clinicians and the pharmaceutical industry to continue to drive innovation in an effort to holistically address degenerative diseases.

Abstract

ABSTRAKPendahuluan: Penyakit Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD) merupakan ancaman global yang disebabkan oleh virus yang ditularkan melalui gigitan nyamuk Aedes aegypti dan Aedes albopictus. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendalami karakteristik larva kedua jenis nyamuk tersebut melalui pendekatan entomologi, dengan tujuan memahami pola perindukan dan perilaku habitatnya. Metode: Penelitian ini mengadopsi pendekatan eksploratif entomologi dengan teknik pengambilan sampel larva menggunakan metode simple random sampling. Fokus utama penelitian adalah pada identifikasi ciri khas larva Aedes aegypti dan Aedes albopictus serta distribusi perindukannya di area penelitian. Hasil: Hasil penelitian mengungkapkan ciri khas larva Aedes aegypti dan Aedes albopictus yang mencolok, dengan perbedaan dalam pola perindukan dan prevalensi di berbagai lingkungan. Larva Aedes aegypti cenderung mendominasi di ruangan, sementara larva Aedes albopictus lebih sering ditemukan di luar ruangan. Temuan ini memberikan wawasan mendalam mengenai adaptasi kedua jenis nyamuk terhadap lingkungan sekitarnya. Kesimpulan: Eksplorasi entomologi ini memberikan pemahaman yang lebih mendalam mengenai ciri khas larva Aedes aegypti dan Aedes albopictus, serta distribusi perindukannya di lingkungan sekitar. Penelitian ini memberikan dasar untuk pengembangan strategi pengendalian vektor yang lebih efektif dalam upaya pencegahan Demam Berdarah Dengue. Hasil ini diharapkan dapat menjadi landasan bagi intervensi yang tepat dan berkelanjutan untuk mengurangi risiko penularan DBD. ABSTRACTIntroduction: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a global threat caused by viruses transmitted through the bites of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. This research aims to delve into the characteristics of larvae of both mosquito species through an entomological approach, with the goal of understanding their breeding patterns and habitat behavior. Methodology: The study adopts an exploratory entomological approach with larval sampling using the simple random sampling method. The primary focus of the research is on identifying the distinctive features of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus larvae, as well as their distribution of breeding sites within the study area. Results: The research reveals striking characteristics of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus larvae, showing differences in breeding patterns and prevalence across various environments. Aedes aegypti larvae tend to dominate indoor locations, while Aedes albopictus larvae are more commonly found in outdoor settings. These findings provide profound insights into the adaptation of both mosquito species to their surrounding environments. Conclusion: This entomological exploration offers a deeper understanding of the distinctive characteristics of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus larvae, along with the distribution of their breeding sites in the surrounding environment. The research provides a foundation for the development of more effective vector control strategies in the effort to prevent Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever. These results are expected to serve as a basis for appropriate and sustainable interventions to reduce the risk of Dengue transmission.
