Abstract

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of parijoto fruit extract (Medinilla speciosa Blume) in improving the condition of fatty liver in male balb/c mice (Mus musculus L.) fed with a high-fat diet. Thirty male balb/c mice weighing 20 to 30 g were randomly divided into six groups, i.e: 1) Standard feed and Carboxymethyl Cellulose Sodium or CMC-Na 0.5% (K1); 2) High-fat diet and CMC-Na 0.5% (K2); 3) High-fat diet and simvastatin 0.026 mg/day (K3); 4) High-fat diet and parijoto fruit extract 5.6 mg/20 g BW (P1); 5) High-fat diet and parijoto fruit extract 8.4 mg/20 g BW (P2); 6) High-fat diet and parijoto fruit extract 11.2 mg/20 g BW (P3). Standard feed, high-fat diet, simvastatin, and parijoto fruit extract were administered for 56 days. On the 57th day, the total of 30 mice were terminated and the livers were then removed for H&E staining histopathological slides. Data on the degree of fatty liver on histopathological slides were collected and analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test and followed by the Mann-Whitney test. The histopathological analysis showed Medinilla speciosa Blume extract at a dose of 5.6 mg/20 g BW in group P1 prevent the steatosis degree compared to high-fat feed mice in group K2 (p>0.05). Parijoto fruit extract could act as the potential treatment for fatty liver.

Abstract

Background: The severity of dyspepsia symptoms is often overlooked despite established definitions and diagnostic criteria. The Short Form-Leeds Dyspepsia Questionnaire (SF-LDQ) is a validated English-language tool designed to evaluate these symptoms. This research focuses on creating and validating an Indonesian version of the SF-LDQ.Methods: The SF-LDQ was translated into Indonesian following standard procedures, including forward-backward translation, cross-checking, and pilot testing. Unselected patients from Dabo Regional Hospital and Dabo Lama Community Health Center (Pusat Kesehatan Masyarakat, or Puskesmas) completed a questionnaire upon enrollment and again after three days via direct follow-up or blinded phone interviews. Reliability was measured through internal consistency (Cronbach’s α) and test-retest analysis (Spearman’s correlation). Meanwhile, validity was evaluated by comparing SF-LDQ scores with Rome IV Criteria-based diagnoses from blinded physicians and analyzing diagnostic performance with ROC curves.Results: A total of 204 participants were included. The Indonesian SF-LDQ exhibited excellent reliability, with Cronbach’s α of 0.875 and Spearman’s correlation of 0.984 (p 0.001). Validity analysis demonstrated an AUC of 0.946 (p 0.001, 95% CI = 0.913–0.978). A cut-off score of 6.5 yielded 87.0% sensitivity and 93.3% specificity.Conclusion: The Indonesian SF-LDQ is a dependable and valid tool for evaluating the frequency and severity of dyspeptic symptoms.
