Abstract

Introduction. Metabolic syndrome is a collection of factors believed to increase the risk of atherosclerosis and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The incidence of metabolic syndrome in young adults is increasing, especially in Asian countries. Therefore we need efforts to increase knowledge in society about this disease. Aim. We conducted a socialization program on prevention and early detection of metabolic syndrome in household community to increase public knowledge about this disease.Method. This program was conducted in August 2017 in Wonokromo District, Surabaya. The participants in the activity consisted of 32 people from household community. The activity consisted of blood sampling collection, body weight, and abdominal circumference measurement for risk factor assessment, pre-test, socialization of metabolic syndrome, and post-test.Results. From the results of the pre and post test, we found an increase knowledge of 76.9% participants. The laboratory test results for early detection of metabolic syndrome showed 37.5% of participants had metabolic syndrome. We also found a significant positive correlation between body weight and abdominal circumference (p = 0.000, r = 0.867). There was also a significant negative correlation between body weight and HDL (p = 0.004, r = -0.494), between abdominal circumference and HDL (p <0.05, r = -0.376), and between TG and HDL (p <0.05, r = -4.22).Conclusion. Socialization and early detection of metabolic syndrome can increase knowledge, awareness, and detection of metabolic syndrome in the household community.

Abstract

Changes in kidney homeostasis due to diabetes can cause oxidative stress which then caused tissue damage that leads to diabetic nephropathy. Clinacanthus nutans extract is known to contain antioxidants that are reported to play an important role in the body’s defense system against oxidative stress to minimize tissue damage. This study aims to know the effect of Clinacanthus nutans leaf extract administration on kidney histopathological features of the diabetic rats model. A total of 35 rats were induced by streptozotocin which then divided into 5 groups and given Clinacanthus nutans extract with a dose of 75 mg/kgBW, 150 mg/kgBW and 300 mg/kgBW then compare with CMC-Na as control and metformin as standard drug for 14 days. The kidney histopathology was evaluated under a light microscope against the damage criteria that occurred in the proximal tubules of the kidney. As the result the least amout of kidney damage was on treatment group at dose 300 mg/kgBW, followed by extract with dose 75 mg/kgBW, 150 mg/kgBW, and metformin. In conclusion Clinacanthus nutans extract with a dose of 75 mg/kgBW, 150 mg/kgBW, and 300 mg/kgBW can improve the kidney histopathological feature of the diabetic rats model.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic hyperglycemic that can cause complications in several organs. It could lead glycosylated hemoglobin or HbA1c formation which has ability undergo further changes into Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) and stimulate activation of transcription factors such as nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB). Some studies showed that anthocyanin has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity and it has been found Rosa damascene contain high level of anthocyanin. Total anthocyanin content was 0.459 ± 0.003 mg/L. The aim of this study was to investigate inhibitory effect of R. damascena extract on HbA1c levels and NF-κB activation in diabetic rats. Male wistar rats (n=24) were divided into 6 groups as normal control (KN), streptozotocin-induced diabetic control (KP), diabetic treated with R. damascene (P1, P2, P3; 250, 500 and 1000 mg/kg/d respectively) and diabetic treated with metformin (KM; 500 mg/kg/d). This was carried out for 28 days. The inhibition mode of R. damascene extract was examined by measuring HbA1c levels and expression of NFκB by immunohistochemistry. The results showed p values ​​> 0.05 for HbA1c and p < 0.05 for NFκB. From immunohistochemical staining, it seen the expression of NFκB was low in treated group (P1, P2, P3 and KM) compared with KP. Thus, oral administration of R. damascene extract for 28 days could not reduce HbA1c levels, but can supress NFκB expression.

Abstract

Introduction: Dyslipidemia is a major health problem in Indonesia which leads to other diseases. Triglycerides (TG) is one of the increased lipid fractions which is related to dyslipidemia. Simvastatin is the main therapy in Indonesia to lower TG levels. The use of virgin coconut oil (VCO) becomes popular as a blood cholesterol-lowering agent even though the effects on TG level remains elusive. Since there is no empirical evidence VCO as a complementary therapy of simvastatin on TG levels, this experimental trial is conducted to determine the effect of simvastatin and VCO combination therapy on blood TG levels in dyslipidemic male white rats.Methods: 42 white rats (Rattus norvegicus) divided into 5 treatment groups and preliminary test of dyslipidemia. The blood was collected intracardially and TG level was measured by using spectrophotometric methods. Independent variables are simvastatin and VCO and combination therapy while the dependent variable is TG levels of white rats. The data was afterwards analyzed using Mann-Whitney U test.Results: The control group’s triglyceride plasma level, receiving standard diet, is 59±13,4 mg/dl. The VCO-only group shows 72±35,4 mg/dl while simvastatin-only group shows 61,9±22,6 mg/dl triglyceride level. Combination therapy of simvastatin and VCO shows 62,3±31,3 mg/dl (p>0,05).Conclusion: There were no significant differences between groups with control. However,the use of VCO with particular dose and duration of therapy, will significantly decrease triglyceride level in the blood as effective as simvastatin. VCO has no efficacy while used as combination therapy of simvastatin.

Abstract

Background: Borax, a carcinogenic toxicant, is illegally used as food additives frequently. Previous researches shown that high dose of borax exposure (300 mg/kg of BW) caused gastric ulcer, but low dose of borax, as found as usual dose in food, has not been frequently researched. Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of low dose of borax for 8 weeks on the formation of gastric ulcer. Materials and Methods: Twenty four young adult rats (Rattus norvegicus) were divided into 4 groups (Control, Group 1, 2, and 3). Borax doses of 50 mg/kg, 150 mg/kg, and 300 mg/kg were administered on groups 1, 2, and 3 respectively through sonde for 8 weeks; Control group was not exposed with borax. Body weight was monitored every 2 weeks. On the last day of the experiment, rats were euthanized and gastric ulcers were histopathologically analyzed using a microscope. The data were analyzed by the comparative test of Mann-Whitney and the significancy was set on p<0.050. Results: The results showed that body weight was significantly different on the 6th week between Control vs Group 1 (p=0.010) and Control vs Group 3 (p=0.043). The grade of gastric ulcer was found higher in Group 2 and Group 3 compared to Control (p=0.019 and 0.011 respectively). Conclusion: Both of low dose (150 mg/kg BW) and high dose (300mg/kg BW) of borax exposure for 8 weeks cause microscopic gastric ulcer on rats.
