Abstract

Background: Acne vulgaris (AV) is a chronic inflammatory multifactorial disease that involves the pilosebaceous unit. The lesions of acne may be either non-inflammatory (comedones, which are blackheads or whiteheads) or inflammatory lesions (papules, nodules or pustules). The effects of diet and cosmetics on acne are still inconclusive. The objective of this study was to analyse the relationship between diet, cosmetics and the degree of AV.Methods: This was a hospital-based, analytic observational study with cross-sectional design. The subjects were patients from the Outpatient Clinic of Dermatovenereology Department of Dr. Soetomo General Hospital. The questionnaire was filled by the respondents and the degree of AV was graded by the specialist. Results: Among the types of diet, white bread (p=0.039), chocolate (p=0.044) and oily food (p=0.013) are significantly associated with the degree of AV. However, white rice, potatoes and milk were insignificantly related to degree of AV (p>0.05). No significant association was found in cosmetics (cleanser, moisturizer, facial protection, exfoliators and decorative cosmetics) with the degree of AV (p>0.05).Conclusions: The factors that have an influence on the degree of AV are white bread, chocolate and oily food intake.

Abstract

Background: Indonesia as an agricultural country has more than 33 million workers in the agriculture. Pesticides have an important role in agriculture because they function as powerful plant pest exterminators. However, its use is considered to cause various toxic effects, one of which is on the nervous system. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of pesticide exposure on cognitive impairment by assessing the butyrylcholinesterase biomarker in the blood of rats as experimental animals.Methods: This was a true experimental study conducted during September–November 2022 at the Pharmacology and Biochemistry Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine, University of Jember with a post-test only approach using Wistar rats which were divided into 1 control group and 4 treatment groups treated with chlorpyrifos 5 mg/kg orally. Serum butyrylcholinesterase enzyme levels were measured using the kinetic photometric method and then analyzed with a regression test in IBM SPSS® Statistics software.Results: The average value of butyrylcholinesterase was 920.23±145.27 (Control group); 904.48±91.6 (7 days after chlorpyrifos administration); 889.81±95.2 (14 days after chlorpyrifos administration); 457.84±69.5 (28 days after chlorpyrifos administration); 575.82±194.25 (56 days after chlorpyrifos administration). The results of the One-Way ANOVA test showed significant differences between groups as indicated by a significance test of 0.024 (p <0.05).Conclusions: There is a relationship between the duration of exposure to chlorpyrifos and butyrylcholinesterase levels in Wistar rats. This fact shows that the longer an organism is exposed to low doses of chlorpyrifos pesticides, the higher the level of neurological system toxicity that occurs in that organism.
