Abstract

Medicine is an inseparable part of society because of its usefulness in reducing symptoms or curing a disease. In order for medicines to provide maximum results, a correct understanding of the rules for consuming medicines, whether in the form of synthetic drugs or those of natural origin from plants, is required. One area that is rich in medicinal plants, including endemic Kalimantan medicinal plants such as kratom and has attention to the use of medicinal plants to improve health status, is Liang Ulu Village. To provide understanding and increase the knowledge of the people of Liang Ulu Village, Kota Bangun District, Kutai Kartanegara Regency regarding the proper and correct use of medicines and medicinal plants, community service activities were carried out in the form of the Community Wisely Consuming Medicines (MBKO) movement. The service methods used include delivering material, discussions, and distributing posters and leaflets. Success parameters are seen based on pre and post-test data to measure the increase in public understanding. The results of community service activities show an increase in knowledge from 62.56% to 82%.

Abstract

ABSTRACT There are still some people who do not understand the difference between the expiration date (Expired Date/ED) and the drug usage limit (Beyond Use Date/BUD). BUD is the time limit for drug use after compounding or after the primary packaging is opened. This activity aims to increase public knowledge, understanding, and awareness regarding the importance of paying attention to the safe limit for drug use or Beyond Use Date (BUD), so that people can use drugs wisely, safely, and responsibly. The activity implementation method includes counseling, material presentation, distribution of leaflets or brochures, and filling out pre-tests and post-tests. The number of participants who took part in this activity was 26 people. The results of the health promotion activity at the Lempake Community Health Center, Samarinda City showed that the average knowledge of participants about Beyond Use Date before providing education was 31.92%, and increased to 88.08% after being given information. Thus, it can be concluded that this activity was successful in increasing public knowledge regarding Beyond Use Date in the Lempake Community Health Center area, Samarinda City.. Key words: Beyond Use date (BUD), Expired date (ED), Lempake Health Center Samarinda City

Abstract

In this research, 1H-NMR-based metabolomics assessed the metabolite profiles of two Nephelium species flesh, specifically Nephelium ramboutan-ake and Nephelium lappaceum. Our research findings indicate that the metabolite profile of N. ramboutan-ake is qualitatively identical, although numerically distinct from that of N. lappaceum. The PLSDA data indicate that N. ramboutan-ake possesses elevated concentrations of acetic acid, malic acid, GABA, and succinic acid compared to N. lappaceum. In N. lappaceum, alanine and glucose serve as the distinguishing metabolites. Additionally, the anticancer efficacy of two Nephelium samples was assessed. As a result, the anticancer properties of N. ramboutan-ake were superior to those of N. lappaceum. PLS analysis indicated that GABA exhibited the most positive connection with the anticancer activity of Nephelium samples. These results indicate that the higher GABA concentrations of N. ramboutan-ake have a beneficial effect on its anticancer activity.

Abstract

Kleinhovia hospita is a hepatoprotective plant rich in bioactive saponins, yet conventional extraction methods remain inefficient. This study aimed to optimize saponin recovery by comparing Microwave-Assisted Extraction (MAE) against conventional maceration and assessing the effect of solvent polarity. Saponins were extracted using MAE (15 minutes) and maceration (72 h) with various ethanol concentrations ranging from 0 to 96%. Total Saponin Content (TSC) was quantified colorimetrically using the vanillin-sulfuric acid method. MAE significantly outperformed maceration, attaining a two-fold increase in saponin purity (106.67 and 52.92 mg Diosgenin Equivalent (DE)/g extract, respectively) in a fraction of the time. Solvent analysis revealed a trade-off: whereas 96% ethanol yielded the highest specific purity (133.89 mg DE/g), it resulted in low mass recovery. In contrast, 50% ethanol extracted the highest Total Saponin Yield (TSY) (18.84 mg/g powder), effectively balancing matrix swelling with solubility. MAE utilizing 50% ethanol is identified as the optimal, rapid, and green strategy for the industrial production of standardized K. hospita extracts.

Abstract

Introduction: Dental caries is a significant global health concern. Factors such as socioeconomic status, diet, oral hygiene, and access to dental care influence its prevalence. Limited information exists on dental health in remote sea-floating villages. This study aimed to analyze the correlation between demographic and environmental factors and dental caries prevalence in a sea-floating community. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Malahing Village, a sea-floating village located adjacent to the Makassar Strait, 4 km east of Bontang city. Seventy-two respondents aged 5–59 years were examined for the DMFT index, while intrinsic factors (demographic and dental health behaviors) and extrinsic factors (environmental and dental health services) were collected via questionnaires. Data were analyzed using descriptive univariate analysis to determine variable characteristics and Spearman’s correlation analysis. Results: Dental caries prevalence was 98.61%, with a DMFT index of 10.01. Age (r=0.564, p=0.001), education (r=0.370, p=0.002), and occupation (r=0.273, p=0.020) showed strong, moderate, and weak positive correlations, respectively. Rainwater exposure (r=-0.353, p=0.003) showed a moderate negative correlation. Sex, dental health behaviors, water source, and dental visits were not significantly correlated with caries prevalence. Adults showed highest prevalence (66.67%) but low DMFT index (1.00). Government employees had high DMFT scores (4.61). Twice-daily brushing was uncommon (66.67%) among individuals with high DMFT scores (6.15). Patients who never visited a dentist (44.44%) showed high DMFT scores (8.33). Conclusions: In this underserved coastal community, demographic disadvantages and environmental exposures, particularly water sources, combined with limited dental care contribute to an elevated caries burden compared to the national and international levels. Despite complex associations with environmental factors, rainwater exposure showed negative correlation with caries prevalence, highlighting measurement challenges. The high proportion of patients never visited a dentist, low oral health awareness, and nonstandard water management highlight critical service gaps.

Abstract

Anemia remains a significant health problem among adolescent girls, including in East Kalimantan, with a prevalence of 43.2%. Low adherence to iron supplementation (iron tablets) and limited understanding of dietary iron sources pose challenges to prevention efforts. This study employed a one-group pretest–posttest design involving 25 eleventh-grade students of SMK Negeri 3 Samarinda. The intervention consisted of interactive education on anemia prevention and herbal utilization through the distribution of leaflets, posters, discussion sessions, and iron tablet supplementation, followed by effectiveness evaluation using pre-test, post-test, and questionnaires. The results showed an improvement in knowledge, indicated by an increase in the number of students with correct answers from 20 in the pre-test to 23 in the post-test, with the greatest improvement observed in understanding anemia symptoms and the benefits of iron supplementation. Adherence to iron tablet consumption was also high, with 96% of students reporting consumption at home. Interactive education was effective in improving students’ knowledge and awareness in preventing anemia. The use of commonly available herbal resources can serve as a complementary strategy for anemia prevention due to their iron, vitamin, and mineral content. Continuous education is required to maintain adherence to iron supplementation and promote a balanced diet.

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) represents a major public health problem due to its increasing prevalence and the complexity of its long-term management. Effective control of T2DM relies heavily on patient adherence to pharmacological therapy, including oral antidiabetic drugs and insulin, as well as routine self-monitoring of blood glucose levels. However, in many communities, inadequate knowledge, misconceptions about treatment, and limited practical skills remain significant barriers to optimal disease management. In Samarinda City, the high number of diabetes cases reflects ongoing challenges in improving therapy compliance and empowering patients to actively participate in self-care practices. Community-based interventions play an important role in addressing these challenges by providing accessible education and hands-on training tailored to local needs. Health education that combines theoretical information with practical demonstrations has been shown to improve understanding, foster positive attitudes, and enhance self-efficacy among people with diabetes. Furthermore, the use of pre-test and post-test evaluations allows for an objective assessment of knowledge improvement following educational interventions. By strengthening community knowledge and skills related to medication adherence and blood glucose monitoring, such programs have the potential to contribute to better glycemic control, reduce the risk of complications, and support sustainable diabetes management at the community level.

Abstract

Mitragyna speciosa Korth. berasal dari famili Rubiaceae yang banyak tumbuh di daratan negara-negara Asia Tenggara. Tumbuhan ini selain disebut Kratom, khususnya di daerah Kalimantan Timur dikenal juga dengan nama "Kadamba". Mitragyna speciosa Korth. belongs to the Rubiaceae family and is widely found in the mainland of Southeast Asian countries. This plant, known as Kratom, is also referred to as "Kadamba" in East Kalimantan. Kadamba has been used for generations as a traditional medicine and contains predominantly alkaloid compounds, which generally function as analgesics, antitussives, antidiarrheals, adrenergic agents, antimalarials, antibacterials, and antinociceptives. The aim of this research is to determine the isolation and identification methods for alkaloid compounds in Kadamba leaves. In this study, extraction was performed using methanol solvent, followed by fractionation using Vacuum Liquid Chromatography (VLC) and Column Chromatography (CC) with gradient eluents: 100% hexane, n-hexane : Ethyl Acetate (5:1, 1:1, 1:5), 100% Ethyl Acetate, Ethyl Acetate : Methanol (1:1, 1:5), and 100% Methanol. The compounds were then identified using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC). The isolation process used preparative Thin Layer Chromatography (PTLC) with eluent n-hexane: ethyl acetate: 25% ammonia (6.5:3:0.5 v/v/v), and the spots were observed under UV light at 245 nm and 366 nm. The visible spots were sprayed with Dragendorff's reagent to identify the alkaloid compounds. The results showed that the UV-Vis spectrophotometric characterization of isolate B6-b had two peaks at wavelengths of 288 nm and 294 nm.
