Abstract

Atherosclerosis is predominantly an inflammatory process that is the key pathophysiological cause of ischemic coronary heart disease (CHD). Some studies suggest that sorghum can reduce atherosclerotic parameters through many biological activities, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammation, and anti-thrombotic properties. The primary objective was to evaluate the effect of an enteral sorghum tempeh formula on the levels of Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and Interleukin-6 (IL-6) in an atherosclerotic rat model. A total of 24 male rats were utilized, with the experiment structured into an 8-week atherogenic diet induction period, followed by a 4-week intervention phase. The rats were divided into four groups: a healthy control, an atherogenic control, and two treatment groups supplemented with the formula at 0.75g/200 g and 1.50g/200 g body weight (BW), respectively. IL-6 and PAI-1 levels were quantified using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). The atherogenic diet successfully induced a significant elevation in both IL-6 and PAI-1 levels compared to the healthy control group (p=0.000), indicating a heightened inflammatory and thrombotic state in the atherosclerotic group. Conversely, the groups receiving the sorghum tempeh-based formula exhibited a significant reduction in both IL-6 and PAI-1 levels compared to the atherogenic control group (p=0.000), suggesting potent anti-inflammatory and antithrombotic properties of the sorghum tempeh.

Abstract

ABSTRACTBackground: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is characterized by hyperglycemia and insulin resistance with HbA1c as the main indicator. Vitamin D plays a role in glucose metabolism through modulation of insulin sensitivity and anti-inflammatory effects, but the relationship between vitamin D and HbA1c still shows varied results. Objective: This review aims to analyze the effect of vitamin D on HbA1c levels in T2DM patients based on published studies. Methods: This study is a narrative review was conducted by searching databases including PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar over the past 10 years. Screening using Mendeley application yielded 10 articles meeting the criteria. Variables studied included HbA1c levels, simple carbohydrate intake, fiber intake, vitamin D intake, and oral hypoglycemic agent adherence.Results Several studies show that vitamin D can reduce HbA1c levels through increased insulin sensitivity and reduced inflammation. However, other studies report no significant effect of vitamin D on HbA1c, especially in individuals with sufficient vitamin D levels. Conclusion: Vitamin D potentially plays a role in controlling HbA1c levels in T2DM patients, especially in individuals with vitamin D deficiency. Further research with more rigorous designs is still needed to confirm the effect of vitamin D on HbA1c.Keywords: Type 2 diabetes mellitus; HbA1c; inflammation; insulin sensitivity; vitamin d  ABSTRAKLatar Belakang: Diabetes Mellitus Tipe 2 (T2DM) ditandai dengan hiperglikemia dan resistensi insulin dengan HbA1c sebagai indikator utama. Vitamin D berperan dalam metabolisme glukosa melalui modulasi sensitivitas insulin dan efek anti-inflamasi, namun hubungan antara vitamin D dan HbA1c masih menunjukkan hasil bervariasi. Tujuan: Menganalisis efek vitamin D terhadap kadar HbA1c pada penderita T2DM berdasarkan studi yang telah dipublikasikan. Metode: Tinjauan naratif dilakukan dengan menelusuri basis data PubMed, ScienceDirect, dan Google Scholar dalam 10 tahun terakhir. Screening menggunakan aplikasi Mendeley menghasilkan 10 artikel yang sesuai kriteria. Variabel yang diteliti meliputi kadar HbA1c, asupan karbohidrat sederhana, asupan serat, asupan vitamin D, dan kepatuhan minum OHO. Hasil: Beberapa studi menunjukkan vitamin D dapat menurunkan kadar HbA1c melalui peningkatan sensitivitas insulin dan pengurangan peradangan. Namun, beberapa penelitian lain melaporkan tidak ada efek signifikan dari vitamin D terhadap HbA1c, terutama pada individu dengan kadar vitamin D cukup. Kesimpulan: Vitamin D berpotensi berperan dalam pengendalian kadar HbA1c pada penderita T2DM, terutama pada individu dengan defisiensi vitamin D. Penelitian lebih lanjut dengan desain lebih ketat masih diperlukan untuk memastikan efek vitamin D terhadap HbA1c.Kata Kunci: Diabetes mellitus tipe 2; HbA1c; inflamasi; sensitivitas insulin; vitamin d

Abstract

ABSTRACTBackground: The availability of natural plants as an alternative treatment for DMT2 is widespread in Indonesia. The genus Myrmecodia is one of the plants that has long been used as a traditional medicine by local Papuan people to cure cancer and diabetes.Objectives: This article will review studies related to the genus Myrmecodia regarding phytochemical content, its potential as an antioxidant agent and antidiabetes mellitus type 2.Methods: This narrative review synthesized 119 references from ScienceDirect, PubMed, Frontiers, SpringerLink, Google Scholar, and other respected journal publishers.Results: Ant nest/ Myrmecodia tubers have the potential as a source of antioxidants as evidenced by their antioxidant activity being classified as very strong (IC₅₀ < 50 ppm), have antidiabetic potential by being able to inhibit the α-glucosidase enzyme, improve insulin sensitivity and secretion, and protect β-cells, although specifically several specific molecular mechanisms of action are not yet known.Conclusion: Ant nest tuber has the potential as an additional therapy in type 2 diabetes to control blood sugar and provide antioxidant protection. Although preclinical data supports it, clinical research is needed to confirm its safety and effectiveness. Standardization of extracts and dose-response testing in humans are important next steps for the development of phytotherapy for type 2 diabetes mellitus.Keywords : Myrmecodia; ant nest; antioxidant; antidiabetes ABSTRAKLatar belakang: Ketersediaan tanaman alami sebagai alternatif pengobatan DMT2 tersebar luas di Indonesia.

Abstract

Background: Obesity is a growing public health concern associated with an increased risk of non-communicable diseases. Improving public knowledge through health education is an important strategy for promoting healthy lifestyles and preventing obesity. Audiovisual media have been widely adopted to enhance educational effectiveness and participant engagement. Objective: This study evaluated the effectiveness of a community-based obesity education program using PowerPoint presentations and an educational video to improve participants' knowledge. Methods: A pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was conducted among community participants in Jambi, Indonesia, in 2026. Participants completed a 10-item multiple-choice questionnaire before and after the educational session. The intervention covered the definition of obesity, body mass index classification, waist circumference, risk factors, complications, and lifestyle-based prevention strategies. Data were analyzed using the Shapiro–Wilk test and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, with statistical significance set at p < 0.05. Results: Forty-five participants completed both assessments. The mean knowledge score increased from 86.67 ± 12.25 at baseline to 94.89 ± 6.95 after the intervention. The distribution of score differences was non-normal (Shapiro–Wilk: W = 0.749, p < 0.001). The Wilcoxon signed-rank test demonstrated a significant improvement in knowledge following the educational intervention (W = 0, p < 0.001). Participant evaluation also indicated high acceptance of the educational program across all assessed domains, including material quality, video presentation quality, perceived educational benefits, and overall participant satisfaction. Conclusion: The community-based obesity education program effectively improved participants' knowledge and was well accepted by the participants. Integrating presentations with audiovisual media represents a practical approach to strengthening health literacy and supporting community-based obesity prevention. Keywords: audiovisual education; obesity; community intervention; health promotion; knowledge.
