Abstract

ABSTRACT Worm infection is one of the health problems in all tropical countries, including Indonesia. The most frequent helminthiasis is the infection caused by the Soil-Transmitted Helminth. Primary school-age children are an age group that is susceptible to helminthiasis. Worm infections can cause a serious impact if left untreated with no clean and healthy lifestyle. This study was conducted to determine the prevalence and risk factors of STH in children of Manusak Village, East Kupang Subdistrict, Kupang District, East Nusa Tenggara Province, followed by the characterization of subjects. The analytic observational design with the cross-sectional study was applied to this research. Research subjects were 130 children aged 6-12 years old. The infection was diagnosed microscopically by the Katokatz method. Ascaris lumbricoides were the only species found infecting a total of 50 children (38.4%.). The distribution of ascariasis was higher in girls (30 or 23.08%) than in boys (20 or 15.38%), in children whose parents have no formal education (41 or 31.54%), and who their professions are a farmer. Poor hygiene and sanitation such as no washing hands with soap (27 or 20.77%) as well as the habit of not wearing footwear (47 or 36.2%) and bowel habit on the open areas (35 or 26.92%)  are the risks factors causing the high incidence of A. lumbricoides in the studied area. Enlightenment to the parents regarding good personal and environmental hygiene and sanitation along with chemotherapy from the government and related agencies is needed to achieve a durable reduction of the burden of ascariasis and other STH infection. Keywords                   : Soil Transmitted Helminth, Ascaris lumbricoides, children,                                      Kupang DistrictCorrespondence        : heny-a@fk.unair.ac.id

Abstract

Blood pressure is the pressure exerted by blood against the walls of blood vessels and is generated by the pressure of blood against the walls of arteries when the blood is pumped from the heart to the tissues. The amount of pressure varies depending on the blood vessels and heart rate. Hypertension is a non-communicable disease that triggers health problems that occur throughout the world. Kupang Regency is one of the districts with the highest cases of hypertension in NTT province with 1,582 cases. Hypertension is closely related to hemoglobin levels, hematocrit values and erythrocyte counts. There is a significant positive relationship between hematocrit values and diastolic blood pressure. Increased blood pressure has a significant positive relationship between hemoglobin levels, hematocrit values and erythrocyte counts. Apart from that, factors that influence hypertension with hemoglobin levels, hematocrit values and erythrocyte counts are age, gender, circulating fibrinogen and red blood cell aggregation. The aim of this research is to determine the difference in hematocrit values in sufferers of grade one and degree two hypertension. This research uses a cross-sectional analytical research design based on primary data originating from examination results in Bone Village, Nekamese District, Kupang Regency in April 2023 which meets the research sample criteria. Sampling for this research was determined using the Purposive Sampling technique. The research respondents were 30 hypertension sufferers in Bone Village, Nekamese District, Kupang Regency. Research on blood pressure and hematocrit values was carried out on all respondents. The results showed that hypertension sufferers consisted of 5 (17%) men and 25 (83%) women with the highest age of hypertension sufferers being 56 years old, 24 people (80%). There were 9 (30%) people suffering from grade 1 hypertension and 21 (70%) people suffering from degree 2 hypertension with the hematocrit value of most hypertensive sufferers still within normal limits, 18 (60%) and low hematocrit values as many as 12 (40%). The results of this study were processed using SPSS software with Mann-Whitney Test analysis and presented descriptively regarding the analysis of hematocrit values in sufferers of degree one and degree two hypertension. The results of statistical analysis show p-value 0.05, which means there is no significant difference between variables and vice versa. The results of the study showed that there was no difference in hematocrit values in sufferers of degree one and degree two hypertension with a value of p=0.295. In this study, hypertension sufferers generally had normal hematocrit values, but in second-degree hypertension sufferers the hematocrit values tended to be low.

Abstract

Tuberkulosis masih menjadi masalah kesehatan di Indonesia. Diagnosis laboratorium merupakan tahapan yang penting agar penderita segera mendapatkan pengobatan. Pewarnaan BTA masih menjadi pemeriksaan yang paling banyak dilakukan dikarenakan mudah cepat dan efektif. Gold standard untuk menegakkan diagnosis dengan pemeriksaan kultur. Kultur Mycobacterium tuberculosis relatif mahal dan membutuhkan waktu yang lama, maka diupayakan tersedia media kultur yang relatif lebih murah dan mudah didapat. Media jagung pulut merupakan media yang memungkinkan pertumbuhan sebagian besar organisme. Dengan penambahan telur pada Media jagung pulut mendukung pertumbuhan Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui  pertumbuhan koloni Mycobacterium tuberculosis pada media jagung pulut yang ditambahkan telur dan gula dibandingkan dengan Lowenstein Jensen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan pertumbuhan koloni Mycobacterium tuberculosis pada Media jagung pulut dan media Lowenstein Jensen dapat digunakan sebagai media pertumbuhan. Data dianalisis menggunakan uji Mann-Whitney, hasil uji menunjukan terdapat perbedaan jumlah koloni Mycobacterium tuberculosis pada jagung pulut  dan Lowenstein Jensen, dengan nilai probabilitas sig (2-tailed) yaitu 0,0001 0.05 dimana nilai rata-rata media stein Jensen lebih besar (2,73) di dibandingkan media uji (0,8-1,2)
