Abstract

Background. Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that remains a global healthproblem. TB treatment requires lengthy drug regimens with varying doses and sideeffects, which can affect patient adherence to therapy.Objective. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of TB treatment,including dosage, side effects, and expected response after treatment.Methods. This study collected data from 21 journals downloaded from the Mendeleyplatform, covering studies that addressed common aspects of TB treatment.Results. TB treatment involves a combination of major drugs such as isoniazid,rifampicin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol. Common side effects are gastrointestinaldisorders, hepatotoxicity, and neuropathy. Adherence to dosage and management of sideeffects are key to successful TB therapy.Conclusion. Proper dosing and monitoring of side effects are important factors inimproving patient adherence to TB treatment, which in turn can improve treatmentresponse.

Abstract

Astigmatism is a refractive error caused by non-uniformity in the shape of the cornea or lens of the eye, resulting in distortion of vision at various distances. It can result from genetic factors, developmental issues, or injury. While astigmatism can occur at any age, it often emerges in early childhood and may worsen with age, particularly in adulthood. It is most commonly diagnosed in children and young adults.the purpose of this literature review is to compare the effectiveness and safety of the three main approaches to astigmatism treatment: SMILE, Keratoplasty, and other techniques such as AK and TIOL. Methods. A clinical study involving patients with mild to moderate astigmatism. Data on visual measurements, astigmatism measurements, and side effects were collected regularly. The results showed that SMILE has small incisions and lower side effects, but there is still a risk of intraoperative complications. Keratoplasty (especially DALK) offers good visual recovery with few postoperative side effects. TIOL are effective in correcting moderate to high astigmatism with permanent correction, but have a risk of complications. AK is a good option for patients who want to correct astigmatism without more invasive laser surgery. Conclusion. Each method has unique advantages and disadvantages. Choosing the right method can ensure optimal results and clearer vision after surgery.

Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant global health challenge, with Indonesia ranking second globally in the number of Tuberculosis cases after India. High population density, particularly in slum areas with poor sanitation, plays a crucial role in facilitating TB transmission. These unhealthy environmental conditions significantly elevate transmission risks, especially in communities struggling with poverty. Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the relationship between population density and the risk of TB transmission in overcrowded neighborhoods. Methods: A literature review was conducted on studies published between 2019 and 2024, utilizing keywords related to tuberculosis, population density, and densely populated settlements. Results: High population density, especially in areas characterized by substandard housing and inadequate ventilation, substantially increases the risk of TB transmission. Conclusion: Overcrowded neighborhoods with poor housing conditions significantly contribute to the spread of TB. Addressing these issues through improved housing and sanitation is essential to reduce transmission rates and protect public health.
