Abstract

This study evaluates the hepatoprotective effects of ethanol extract of mobe leaves (Artocarpus lacucha Buch-Ham.) in rats induced with carbon tetrachloride (CCl4). The objective was to determine the extract's efficacy in reducing liver damage markers, specifically total bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels, and to assess liver macropathology. The ethanol extract was prepared by maceration using 96% ethanol. Results showed that administering 400 mg/kg body weight (BW) of the extract significantly reduced total bilirubin, ALT, and AST levels in CCl4-induced rats. Additionally, liver macropathology observations indicated improved liver conditions in the treatment group. Phytochemical screening revealed bioactive compounds like flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, saponins, triterpenoids, and glycosides, which are potential antioxidants and hepatoprotective agents. The significant contribution of this research is providing a scientific basis for using mobe leaf extract as a natural hepatoprotective agent, highlighting its potential for safe and effective herbal medicine. Further research and clinical trials are recommended to validate these findings and explore the extract's therapeutic applications.

Abstract

Doxorubicin, a well-known chemotherapy drug, is associated with cardiac toxicity primarily due to oxidative stress. This oxidative stress leads to the production of reactive oxygen species and a subsequent decline in antioxidant levels. As doxorubicin induces the formation of free radicals and decreases endogenous antioxidants, it triggers various hematological and biochemical abnormalities. Consequently, the use of antioxidants has been proposed as a strategy to mitigate this damage. This study focuses on the administration of ethanol extract from Andaliman (EAF) fruit, recognized for its rich array of metabolites and antioxidant properties, which may serve as a cardioprotective agent against the adverse effects of doxorubicin. The research involved comprehensive observations, including hematological and clinical chemistry examinations. The findings indicate that EAF demonstrates protective effects by enhancing hematological and clinical chemistry parameters in male Wistar rats subjected to doxorubicin. Notably, these improvements were statistically significant when compared to the control group. Given its promising results, further exploration of EAF as a protective agent for hematological and biochemical health warrants attention and development.

Abstract

Controlling blood glucose is paramount in diabetes management, yet medication non-adherence often hinders optimal outcomes. This study investigated the impact of pharmacist counseling on Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG) levels and medication adherence in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients within a rural primary healthcare setting. A quasi-experimental pre- and post-test design was employed with 112 T2DM outpatients from Puskemas Simpang Mamplam, Bireuen City, Aceh, Indonesia, from March to April 2024. Medication adherence was assessed using the MARS-10 Questionnaire, and FBG levels were measured via finger prick. The majority of participants were female (79.5%), aged 41-60 (45.5%, mean age 55.70 ± 10.07 years), with secondary education (43.8%), predominantly sedentary/inactive workers (60.7%), and reported low-income (38.4%). Data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon Signed rank Test. Following counseling, which was provided every two weeks over the two-months period, the mean medication adherence score significantly increased (p < 0.001) from 3.150 ± 0.942 to 8.790 ± 1.297. FBG levels also significantly decreased (p<0.05), from an initial mean of 308.98 ± 72.995 to 220.42 ± 68.547 at two weeks, 162.36 ± 50.191 at four weeks, and 130.00 ± 27.774 at six weeks. These findings suggest that pharmacist counseling significantly improves both medication adherence (p < 0.001) and glycemic control (FBG decrease, p < 0,05) in T2DM patients.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases in Indonesia (25.8%) and remains a leading cause of death globally, accounting for approximately three million deaths annually. Poor patient adherence to antihypertensive therapy continues to be a major challenge in achieving optimal blood pressure control and preventing cardiovascular complications. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the effect of pharmacist-led homecare interventions on medication adherence, drug-related problems (DRPs), clinical outcomes, and quality of life among hypertensive patients at Sei Mencirim Primary Health Center. Methods: A pre- and post-cohort study was conducted involving 38 hypertensive patients aged over 55 years between April and June 2024. Medication adherence was assessed using the MASES-R (Medication Adherence Self-Efficacy Scale-Revised) questionnaire, DRPs were identified according to the PCNE V9.0 classification, clinical outcomes were evaluated through blood pressure measurements, and quality of life was measured using the SF-36 (Short Form-36) questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank test. Results: The majority of respondents were female (76.3%) and aged 56–66 years (71.0%). The mean adherence score significantly increased from 16.29 ± 2.35 to 40.97 ± 10.03 (p < 0.001), with adherence rates improving from 0% to 76.3%. A significant reduction was observed in drug-related problems, dropping from 14 to 2 cases, while adverse drug reactions decreased from 18 to 4 cases. The patients’ systolic blood pressure declined from 166.13 ± 17.85 mmHg to 129.07 ± 5.39 mmHg, and diastolic pressure decreased from 86.28 mmHg to 79.26 mmHg (p < 0.001). Furthermore, the average quality-of-life scores increased across all dimensions, including physical function (19.74–87.76), general health (2.19–90.46), and social functioning (4.28–94.41). Conclusion: Pharmacist-led homecare interventions involving continuous education, counseling, and patient support were proven effective in significantly improving medication adherence and quality of life among hypertensive patients. These findings suggest that such interventions should be implemented routinely in primary healthcare settings.
