Abstract

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death globally and one of the main risk factors is impaired lipid profiles due to smoking habits (Naomi et al., 2021). Smoking has a significant effect on lipid metabolism. Several studies have shown that smoking habits can cause increased levels of total cholesterol, LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein), and triglycerides, and decreased levels of HDL (High Density Lipoprotein) (Amalia, n.d.) 2018. This imbalance contributes to the risk of cardiovascular disease, atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease (Amalia, n.d.). This study aims to determine the lipid profile of conventional smokers in motorcycle repair shop workers on Jalan Wolter Monginsidi Semarang Method: This study is a descriptive quantitative study with a cross-sectional approach. Analysis Results Lipid profile levels of conventional smokers in motorcycle repair shop workers on Jalan Wolter Munginsidi total cholesterol levels showed significant differences between smoker groups with a p value = 0.010. The average total cholesterol level in light smokers was 141.92±18.97 mg/dL, moderate smokers 150.76±26.86 mg/dL, and heavy smokers 207.70±50.13 mg/dL. This indicates that the heavier the smoker classification, the higher the total cholesterol level. For triglyceride, LDL, and HDL levels, although there were differences in the mean between groups, the statistical test results did not show a significant difference (p>0.05). This indicates that the number of cigarettes consumed per day has a greater influence on increasing total cholesterol levels than other lipid parameters. Conclusion: The number of cigarettes consumed per day has a greater influence on increasing total cholesterol levels than other lipid parameters.

Abstract

Humans are the host of several intestinal nematodes, most of which can cause public health problems. Among intestinal nematodes there are species that are transmitted through soil or called "soil transmitted helmith" can occur in species Ascaris lumbricoides, Ancylostoma duodenale, Trichuris trichiura. These nematodes mostly infect children aged 5-10 years. The purpose of this study was to determine the presence of intestinal nematodes in the stools of children aged 5-10 years who live around Jalan Abdul Kadir Makassar City, and this study was conducted in the D-3 laboratory of Health Analysts at the University of Eastern Indonesia Makassar with the sedimentation method. The research conducted was a laboratory observation. From examination data on 20 faecal samples of children aged 5-10 years, 7 positive samples (35%) were found, namely Ascaris lumbricoides and 1 positive sample (5%) Trichuris trichiura. From the results of the above research it is suggested to children to maintain hygienic and environmental sanitation. It is recommended to further researchers to examine Ascaris lumbricoides worms and trichuris tricura quantitative methods to measure the amount of intestinal worms infection.

Abstract

Pediculus humanus capitis is a parasite known as head lice. This parasite causes itching that interferes with concentration, as well as irritation of the scalp. One of the factors for the spread of this parasite is personal hygiene that is low and quickly spreads in a crowded living environment. The purpose of this study was to describe the exposure to Pediculus humanus capitis in foster children at the An-Nahl Orphanage, Sragen Regency. This research method is descriptive research through cross sectional approach. The results of this study showed that 12 foster children (86%) in An-Nahl Orphanage, Sragen Regency had Pediculus humanus capitis and 2 foster children (14%) did not find Pediculus humanus capitis. Foster children at the An-Nahl Orphanage who have good personal hygiene category, 2 foster children (14%) are negatively exposed to Pediculus humanus capitis, sufficient category is 4 foster children (29%) are positively exposed to Pediculus humanus capitis, bad personal hygiene category is 8 foster children (57%) were positively exposed to Pediculus humanus capitis. The conclusion of the study was Pediculus humanus capitis was found in foster children at An-Nahl Orphanage, Sragen Regency, as many as 57% of all foster children had poor personal hygiene

Abstract

Tuberculosis is a contagious infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Anti-Tuberculosis Drug Therapy (OAT) given also has side effects, one of which is nephrotoxic. Laboratory examination of urine glucose identification can indicate if there is damage to the kidney glomerulus in the filtration process. The purpose of this study was to identify urine glucose and urine ketones in non-DM pulmonary TB patients with OAT treatment at the Tlogosari Wetan Health Center. This type of research is descriptive observational with a cross-sectional approach. The population was all TB patients who underwent examination at the Tlogosari Wetan Health Center. The research sample was a random urine sample from non-DM pulmonary TB patients. The examination method used was a dipstick using a reagent strip test. The results showed that out of a total of 30 non-DM pulmonary TB patients with OAT therapy (100%). A total of 6 (20%) patients were identified with urine glucose, with details of  intensive phase treatment 2 (7%) patients with trace urine glucose (±), while in the continuation phase 2 (7%) patients were identified with trace urine glucose (±) and 2 (7%) patients with low urine glucose (+1). The majority of positive urine glucose results were experienced by males with an elderly age range (46-65 years) of 4 patients (14%). The results of urine ketone identification showed that 2 (6.6%) patients were identified with urine ketones, namely trace (±) in intensive phase treatment, while 15 patients in the continuation phase had all negative urine ketones. The majority of positive urine ketone results were experienced by males with an adult age range (26-45 years) of 2 patients (14%). The conclusion of 30 non-DM pulmonary TB patients with OAT therapy who met the inclusion criteria, there were 6 (20%) patients identified with urine glucose and 2 (6.6%) patients identified with urine ketones. The impact of this study is expected for non-DM pulmonary TB patients to take OAT and have regular medical check-up.

Abstract

Pregnant women are one of the populations at risk of contracting Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) such as HIV, Syphilis, and Hepatitis B. The prevalence of HIV/AIDS transmission from mother to child is 20-50% where 5-10% occurs during pregnancy. Syphilis transmission is 69-80% and Hepatitis B transmission is more than 90% with the potential for transmission during pregnancy and childbirth being very high. Based on the Regulation of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, regulation No. 52 of 2017 concerning the Elimination Program for Transmission of Human Immunodeficiency Virus, Syphilis, and Hepatitis B from Mother to Child or often called "Triple Elimination" aims to stop transmission from mother to child with laboratory examinations on pregnant women at least once during pregnancy. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between knowledge and behavior of healthy reproductive age pregnant women in the first trimester at the Lebdosari Health Center. In general, this research method is qualitative with an analytical observational approach and cross-sectional design, namely researchers come and analyze the problem directly. Data collection is carried out at once within a certain time. The population is pregnant women in the first trimester at the Lebdosari Health Center, with a sample size of 49 people selected based on the Purposive Sampling technique. Data analysis was carried out descriptively and then continued with a bivariate test with the Kendal Tau test because the data was not normally distributed. The results of the study showed that the results of the bivariate test with the Kendal Tau test showed that there was no relationship between knowledge and behavior because the significance value p = 0.888> 0.05 with a positive correlation coefficient value (0.19) which means that there is a positive relationship between knowledge and behavior even though the relationship is weak because the value is less than 1, so that if knowledge increases, behavior will be better. It is recommended that pregnant women are advised to always maintain personal hygiene and implement a clean and healthy lifestyle to prevent infectious diseases.
