Abstract

General Background: Oral health is intricately associated with systemic health, particularly in the aging population where chronic conditions such as diabetes are prevalent. Specific Background: Chlorhexidine 0.2% mouthwash is widely used to reduce oral microbial load, potentially influencing systemic inflammation and metabolic markers. Knowledge Gap: However, the systemic impact of routine chlorhexidine use, especially on glycemic regulation in older adults, remains insufficiently explored. Aims: This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate the association between the use of 0.2% chlorhexidine mouthwash and random blood glucose (RBG) levels, while considering age and gender influences. Results: Among 90 respondents, predominantly aged ≥40 years (82%), 34% reported regular chlorhexidine use. Users showed a lower mean RBG (120 mg/dL) compared to non-users (128 mg/dL), though the difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Gender-based analysis also revealed no significant differences. Novelty: This study contributes novel insight by highlighting a possible, albeit non-significant, trend toward improved glycemic status in chlorhexidine users. Implications: While not conclusive, these findings suggest that consistent oral hygiene via chlorhexidine may support systemic health maintenance in older adults, reinforcing the need for longitudinal studies on its metabolic effects. Highlights: Highlights a potential link between oral hygiene and blood glucose control. Shows lower average glucose in chlorhexidine users, though not significant. Supports further research on systemic benefits of mouthwash use in elderly. Keywords: Chlorhexidine 0.2%, Blood Glucose, Oral Health, Aging Population, Cross-Sectional Study

Abstract

BACKGROUND : Chronic Kidney Failure (CKD) is a condition where the kidneys are structurally and functionally damaged characterized by a decrease in Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) reaching ≤ 60 ml/min/1.73m2 for more than three months. About 80 - 90% of patients with CKD experience anemia. AIMS : This research aims to determine the correlation of hemoglobin and hematocrit levels with Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) levels in patients with chronic renal failure. METHOD : The research design used quantitative analysis with cross sectional method. The study used secondary data of as many as 55 respondents of chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis. This study was conducted at the East Java Province Haji Hospital in March 2025. RESULT :  The normality test results showed that hemoglobin and hematocrit levels were not normally distributed (p < 0.05) while TIBC levels were normally distributed (p > 0.05). Kendall's tau b non-parametric correlation test there is no correlation between hemoglobin levels with TIBC (r = 0.134; p = 0.154), and hematocrit with TIBC levels (r = 0.172; p = 0.066). CONCLUSION : The results of this study showed no correlation between hemoglobin and hematocrit levels with total iron binding capacity (TIBC) levels in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis at Haji Provincial General Hospital of East Java .

Abstract

The introduction of a healthy way of life must be done early, and can be started from family and school life. Health care for school-age children can be done through Usaha Kesehatan Sekolah (UKS). The UKS program can be used for coaching in the health sector that requires training of little doctors. The purpose of this activity is to provide training on basic medical materials to improve healthy and healthy living skills, the health status of students, and create a healthy environment so as to increase optimal growth and development. Obtained from the results of this training a positive influence on improving the ability of little doctors. Providing little doctor training provides learning that results in changes from the beginning. This activity involved 42 little doctors from two elementary schools in Sidoarjo. The level of understanding was good, the little doctors rose from (10 students) 23,8% to 69,1% (29 students), quite good understanding from 47,6% (20 students) to 21,4% (9 students), and of the 28,6% (12 students) it dropped to 9,5% (4 students) after receiving a small doctor training.

Abstract

Background: Typhoid fever is an acute infection caused by the bacteria Salmonella typhi. In typhoid fever patients, abnormal leukocyte, lymphocyte, and neutrophil counts are often found. Typhoid fever is prevalent in tropical regions, including Indonesia, where it ranks fifth among infectious diseases, affecting 1.6% of the general population. Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the correlation between Widal titer and the number of leukocytes, lymphocytes, and neutrophils in typhoid fever patients. Methods: The research design used quantitative analysis with a cross-sectional method. The study utilized secondary data from 30 respondents patients with typhoid fever at ‘Aisyiyah Siti Fatimah Tulangan Hospital, conducted in April 2024. Results: The research data were analyzed using Spearman's correlation test in SPSS, and the results showed a significant correlation (p=0.014; r=-0.444) between the Widal titer for S. typhi O and S. typhi H with the leukocyte count, no significant correlation (p=0.855; r=0.035) between Widal titers for S. typhi O and S. typhi H with lymphocyte counts, and a significant correlation (p=0.023; r=-0.413) between Widal titers for S. typhi O and S. typhi H with neutrophil counts. Conclusion: Based on the research results, here is a significant correlation between Widal titer and leukocyte count and between Widal titer and neutrophils.   There is no significant relationship between Widal titer and lymphocyte count in patients with typhoid fever.
