Abstract

Background: Mental health disorders occur a lot among students. Failure to overcome mental health conditions during this period can have a serious impact on their academic condition even on their physical and mental health in adulthood. This study aims to screen mental health in students at Muhammadiyah and Aisyiyah Universities located in the Special Region of Yogyakarta.Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study. A sample of 251 students of Muhammadiyah and Aisyiyah Universities in the Special Region of Yogyakarta were selected by accidental sampling. The study variable was emotional mental disorders which were measured using the Self Rating Questionnaire-20 instrument. Respondents who experienced more than seven symptoms were indicated to have a mental-emotional disorder and needed psychological help. The data were analyzed descriptively.Results: The screening results revealed that 104 students (41.43%) were experiencing mental and emotional disorders and required psychological assistance. In terms of the underlying factors of these disorders, 87.50% of students reported feeling easily fatigued (low energy), 70.19% had difficulty making decisions (cognitive), 52.88% felt unhappy (depression), 55.77% experienced abdominal discomfort (physiological), and 79.81% reported feeling nervous, tense, and worried (anxiety).Conclusion: it is recommended that schools provide accessible psychological counseling and implement stress management programs to help students cope with fatigue, anxiety, and decision-making difficulties

Abstract

Curcumin and quercetin combination are potential candidates for anticancer. Previous studies reported this combination active against several cancer cells including breast cancer, myeloid leukemia, and melanoma. However, the activity of this combination against cervical cancer has not been reported, yet. This study aimed to evaluate the cytotoxicity of the combination of curcumin and quercetin against HeLa and Vero cells. MTT assay was applied to evaluate cell growth inhibition. The inhibitory 50% concentration (IC50) of curcumin and quercetin on HeLa and Vero cells was determined and the selectivity index (SI) was then calculated. Combination index (CI) was calculated after evaluation of the cytotoxicity of the curcumin and quercetin combination at various concentration of 1 IC50, ½ IC50, and ¼ IC50. The IC50 of the curcumin against the HeLa and Vero cells were 26.57 ± 2.00 μM and 73.89 ± 12.93 μM with a SI of 2.78. Whereas the IC50 of the quercetin against the HeLa and Vero cells were 149.52 ± 21.09 μM and 1094.47 ± 15.68 μM with a SI of 7.32. The CI of combinations of curcumin and quercetin at concentrations of ¼ IC50 was 0.78 indicating a mild-moderate synergistic effect, whereas the combination at a concentration of 1 IC50 or ½ IC50, the CI value was >0.9 indicating an antagonistic effect.

Abstract

Background: Burnout can occur in individuals exposed to intense and prolonged repetitive stress. The various activities of medical students require a change in learning style from high school to college, which has the potential to cause stress. This study aims to determine the relationship between stress and burnout among students of the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Ahmad Dahlan. Methods: The research was conducted quantitatively with a cross-sectional design. The sample was 60 students in the 3rd, 5th, and 7th semesters chosen with a with random stratified sampling technique. Results: Most of the students (80.0%) had moderate stress levels and most of the burnout levels were low (45.0%). Bivariate analysis obtained p value < 0.001 and r value = 0.641 (r > 0). In addition, an R-squared of 0.411 was obtained, which shows that the stress level makes a statistical contribution of 41.1% to the variation in burnout, and the remaining 58.9% could be influenced by other factors. Conclusion: There was a significant positive relationship between stress and burnout among students of the Faculty Medicine, Universitas Ahmad Dahlan.
