Abstract

Background: Low Birth Weight (LBW) is one of the risk factors that have a high contribution to infant mortality. Increasing the baby's weight is used as an indicator to determine LBW growth. In LBW babies, touch therapy is a form of stimulation to increase endurance, digestive function activities, and vagus nerve activity. Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of Loving Touch Therapy (LTT) as one of the effective non-medical methods to increase body weight in LBW that can be done by parents during home care. Method: This study was a quantitative study using an experimental design and Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) design. This research conducted in 15 respondents in the intervention group with four weeks' LTT and 15 respondents in the control group who were given Tactile Kinesthetic Stimulation (TKS). Data were obtained from measurements of body weight before and after the intervention then the data were analyzed using independent t-test with significance level p-value <0.05 and multivariate analysis using linear regression.Results: 19 respondents female (63.3%) and 11 respondents male (36.6%) was participated in this research by the frequency distribution of the gender. It was a significant increase in body weight in LBW with LTT carried out by his mother for 28 days compared with TKS stimulation. The differences in the average weight gain are 197 grams. The difference is statistically significant.Conclusions: It can be concluded that LTT is more effective in increasing body weight in LBW post-hospital care because the technique is simple and sequential from the front to the back of the baby's body which makes it easier for parents to understand and physiologically doesn't lose much an energy.

Abstract

Faktor risiko terjadinya penyakit kardiovaskuler selain faktor risiko konvensional (perokok, hipertensi, dislipidemia, diabetes militus dan obesitas) terdapat juga faktor genetik serta faktor risiko non-konvensional seperti kecemasan, stres dan depresi. Tujuan dari penelitian ini yaitu mengidentifikasi variasi genetik yang terkait dengan patogenesis infark miokard pada berbagai populasi dengan menggunakan basis data genom dan pendekatan bioinformatika. Hasil terdapat tiga varian genetik  yaitu gen APOE, ZC3HC1 dan ALDH2  yang memiliki potensi kerusakan terhadap protein DNA sehingga dapat menyebabkan kejadian infark miokard. SNP dengan kode rs7412, rs11556924 dan rs671 merupakan SNP yang paling kuat dikaitkan dengan kejadian infark miokard sehingga dapat direkomendasikan sebagai risiko genetik.
