Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a clinical condition characterized by a rapid decline in kidney function that includes structural damage (injury) or malfunction (impairment). AKI is a common complication that occurs in 5-10% of patients due to various underlying etiologies. One of the underlying pathophysiology of AKI is the role of discharge reactive oxygen species (ROS), which causes injury to kidney cells. From various studies, it has been reported that N-acetylcysteine (NAC) has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects and has an effect on reducing serum creatinine values. Methods: This research is an open randomized clinical trial without control involving 30 patients at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, who were all given intervention in the form of NAC 1200 mg/day, starting in September – October 2023. This study aimed to determine the role of NAC in reducing serum creatinine values in patients with acute kidney injury at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, Indonesia. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS 21 univariate and bivariate. Results: From the research results, it was found that the average age of patients was 53.9 years, involving 21 males (70%, N=30) and 9 females (30%, N=30). The most common causes were prerenal and then renal (53.3% and 46.7%). The initial serum creatinine level was found to be 2.12± 0.79 mg/dL (n = 30 samples), and after administration of the intervention, the mean serum creatinine level was 1.28± 0.63 mg/dL (n = 30 samples). By using a paired t-test, there was a decrease in serum creatinine levels significant (p=0,012). Conclusion: NAC administration to patients with acute kidney injury of pre-renal or post-renal causes has a statistical effect on reducing serum creatinine values in patients with acute kidney injury at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, Indonesia.

Introduction: Tibial fracture is one of the most common injuries. Randu honey has the potential to speed up fracture healing. This study aims to determine the efficacy of randu honey supplementation on callus formation in closed fractures of the tibia in Wistar rats. Methods: This research uses a true experimental design with post test only control group design. A total of 36 Wistar rats were divided into two groups, namely the control group and the treatment group which were given 200g/BW(gram)/day of randu honey. Fractures were made on the rat tibia and callus diameter was measured at 3 weeks after treatment. Results: The callus diameter in the treatment group was significantly larger than the control group (p<0.05) in radiological and macroscopic measurements. Conclusion: Supplementation with randu honey is effective in the formation of callus in closed fractures of the tibia in Wistar rats.

Background: Malnutrition is a prevalent issue among the elderly, often leading to hypoalbuminemia (low albumin levels) and decreased serum Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) levels. These conditions are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Egg white extract (EWE) supplementation has shown promise in improving hypoalbuminemia. This study investigated the effects of EWE supplementation on serum albumin and IGF-1 levels in malnourished elderly patients. Methods: A double-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted, involving 46 malnourished elderly inpatients with hypoalbuminemia. Participants were randomly assigned to receive either EWE (30 grams daily) or a placebo for two weeks. Serum albumin and IGF-1 levels were measured before and after the intervention. Results: After two weeks, the EWE group showed a significant increase in both serum albumin and IGF-1 levels compared to the placebo group. The mean serum albumin level in the EWE group increased from 2.80 g/dL to 3.7 g/dL, while the placebo group remained unchanged. The mean serum IGF-1 level in the EWE group increased from 1.74 ng/mL to 24.74 ng/mL, while the placebo group experienced a smaller increase. There was a moderate positive correlation between changes in albumin and IGF-1 levels. Conclusion: EWE supplementation effectively improves serum albumin and IGF-1 levels in malnourished elderly patients with hypoalbuminemia. This intervention may help reduce malnutrition-related complications and improve overall health outcomes in this vulnerable population.
