Abstract

Schizophrenia is a disorder characterized by abnormal behavior, impaired thinking, disorganized speech, and a reduced ability to perceive reality. One of the key factors influencing the success of schizophrenia therapy is patient adherence. Pharmacy plays a crucial role in the treatment of schizophrenia patients. This study aimed to determine the effect of pharmacist counseling on drug adherence of schizophrenia patients from the first month to the second month. The method used in this study was a one-group pre-test and post-test design that used quasi-experimental research. The subjects of this study were schizophrenia patients in the outpatient installation of Prof.Dr.Soerojo Mental Hospital, Magelang. This study used the Medication Adherence Rating Scale (MARS) questionnaire to measure the level of adherence and drug use monitoring sheet (pill count) to monitor the amount of patient medication. The population in this study was calculated using the Lameshow formula. Data analysis was performed using the chi-square test and the Wilcoxon test. After analyzing data of 108 patients, it was found that there was a significant difference between before and after counseling conducted by pharmacists on medication adherence in schizophrenia patients, with a significance value of p <0.05. Counseling conducted by pharmacists has a good impact on patient medication adherence and monitoring the amount of medication taken. These results indicate the effect of counseling conducted by pharmacists on adherence to taking medication and the monitoring of the amount of medication taken by patients.

Abstract

Osteoartritis merupakan masalah kesehatan yang sering dialami lansia dan menyebabkan nyeri kronis, keterbatasan gerak, serta penurunan kualitas hidup. Keterbatasan pemantauan dan perawatan lanjutan di tingkat komunitas menyebabkan penatalaksanaan belum optimal. Kegiatan pengabdian ini bertujuan memberdayakan kader Posyandu dalam pendampingan dan monitoring komprehensif lansia dengan osteoartritis pasca injeksi intraartikuler. Program dilaksanakan di Posyandu Larasati Dukuh Kupang Surabaya melalui tahapan koordinasi, pelatihan kader, edukasi lansia, skrining klinis, pelaksanaan tindakan, dan pemantauan berkala. Skrining meliputi penilaian nyeri, pemeriksaan laboratorium, dan foto radiografi lutut. Dari 50 lansia yang diperiksa, 14 orang memenuhi indikasi dan bersedia menjalani terapi injeksi. Kader dilatih untuk melakukan senam osteoartritis, terapi infra merah, pemantauan keluhan, pemeriksaan gula darah sewaktu, serta pemantauan kepatuhan konsumsi suplemen sendi. Evaluasi menunjukkan peningkatan pengetahuan dan keterampilan kader dalam melakukan pendampingan serta pemantauan kondisi pasien. Lansia yang didampingi melaporkan penurunan nyeri dan peningkatan kenyamanan aktivitas. Program ini menunjukkan bahwa pemberdayaan kader efektif mendukung layanan osteoartritis berbasis komunitas secara berkelanjutan.

Abstract

Introduction: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative disorder of the joints that progresses over time, with inflammation playing a key role in its underlying mechanisms. Interleukin-8 (IL-8), a pro-inflammatory cytokine that participates in immune responses and neutrophil migration, has been associated with the process of cartilage breakdown in OA. This study was conducted to analyze the association between serum IL-8 concentrations and the radiographic severity of knee OA as exploratory evidence to enhance understanding of OA pathophysiology.Method: This exploratory observational research applied a cross-sectional approach in patients diagnosed with knee OA. Seven participants were enrolled through total sampling at the Larasati Pondok Osteoarthritis Elderly Health Center, Faculty of Medicine, Wijaya Kusuma University, Surabaya. Radiographic severity of OA was determined using the Kellgren–Lawrence grading system. Venous blood specimens were obtained to determine serum IL-8 concentrations as an indicator of systemic inflammation.Results: Statistical analysis demonstrated a significant inverse correlation between serum IL-8 concentrations and OA severity (r = −0.866, P = 0.012). These results indicate that IL-8 concentrations in serum are relatively elevated in the early phase of OA and tend to decline as the disease progresses.Conclusion: The findings of this exploratory study indicate that serum IL-8 may represent systemic inflammatory activity during the early stages of knee OA and holds potential as a biomarker candidate for future investigation. Further longitudinal studies involving larger sample sizes are necessary to validate its clinical relevance for OA detection and disease monitoring. Keywords: Cartilage, inflammation, interleukin-8, joint diseases, osteoarthritis, risk factors
