Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of prolonged neuromuscular symptoms, including fatigue, anosmia, headache, myalgia, and joint pain in COVID-19 survivors hospitalized with mild, moderate, or severe infections worldwide. The search was conducted up to January 30th, 2021 using three databases (PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science) to identify potentially eligible studies. Data on study characteristics, follow-up characteristics, and severity of COVID-19 during hospitalization were collected in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. The Newcastle-Ottawa scale was used to assess the quality of relevant articles. The estimated prevalence of specific prolonged neuromuscular symptoms and the association between COVID-19 severity and occurrence of prolonged neuromuscular symptoms was analyzed wherever appropriate. Database search yielded 4,050 articles and 22 articles were included for meta-analysis. The estimated prevalence of prolonged fatigue was recorded in 21.2% (95%CI: 11.9%–34.8%) of 3,730 COVID-19 survivors. Persistent anosmia was recorded in 239 of 2,600 COVID-19 survivors (9.7%, 95%CI: 6.1%–15.2%). In 84 out of 2,412 COVID-19 survivors (8.9%, 95%CI: 3.2%–22.6%), prolonged headache was observed. A total of 53 out of 1,125 COVID-19 patients (5.6%, 95%CI: 2.1%–14.2%) complained of persistent myalgia even after being discharged from the hospital. The prevalence of prolonged joint pain was in 15.4% (95%CI: 8.2%–27.2%) of subjects. Due to data scarcity on COVID-19 severity and prolonged neuromuscular symptoms, association analysis could not be conducted. Widespread concern regarding long-term impacts of COVID-19 was raised after several studies reported prolonged symptoms in COVID-19 survivors. Numerous theories have been proposed to address this concern; however, as the research on this pandemic is still ongoing, no explanation is definitive yet. Therefore, follow-up studies in COVID-19 survivors after recovery from COVID-19 are warranted to determine the pathogenesis of prolonged symptoms. PROSPERO registration: CRD42021242332.

Abstract

One of the most cancers in women that can be fatal is breast cancer. Radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of the two are often used to treat cancer, and these treatments tend to modify the immune system and weaken defences. Using natural compounds from plants has become a research interest to prevent cancer cell development. The aim of this study was to determine the anticancer activities of ethyl acetate extract of Chromolaena odorata (EACO) against breast cancer cells (MCF-7 and T47D). The viability of the cells was determined by the MTT colorimetry assays. The apoptosis test was performed by using flow cytometry. The IC50 value for MCF-7 cells was 218.78 μg/mL and 307.61 μg/mL for T47D. The extract acted selectively against breast cancer cells, with selectivity indexes against MCF-7 and T47D were 12.77 and 9.08, respectively. The viable cells of T47D cells were decreased from 85±36.5% (24 hours) to 54±34% (48 hours) after treatment with IC50 of EACO. Significant decrease of the MCF-7's viable cells were observed between 48 and 72 hours after treatment with IC50 (68.5±17.7% to 51.01±12.1%, respectively). Apoptosis assay showed that T47D and MCF-7 cells were mainly in the necrosis stage (83.35±0.49% and 95.15±1.76%, respectively). This study suggested that ethyl acetate extract of C. odorata is promising to be developed as an anticancer agent.

Abstract

Introduction: Malnutrition is a worldwide problem that has yet to be resolved, and its prevalence in Indonesia has increased in tandem with changes in people’s lifestyles. Method: This study aims to determine nutritional status based on anthropometric values and investigate malnutrition in male and female aged 17–22 years. The research was conducted using a cross-sectional study. The subjects were male and female, aged 17–22 years, and healthy, with a total of 1,669 male (n=210) and female (n=1459). A questionnaire was used to obtain data. The data was analyzed using a chi-square test (p less than 0.05) and an independent sample t-test (p less than 0.05). Result: Malnutrition was found in subjects who were underweight (male=28.10% and female=26.39%), overweight (male=8.10% and female=9.32%), and obese (male=8.57% and female=6.85%). Total malnutrition in male and female was 27.25% underweight, 8.71% overweight, and 7.71% obese. Nutritional status was not related to gender (p greater than 0.05): underweight (p=0.74), normo-weight (p=0.48), overweight (p=0.34), and obesity (p=0.74). Conclusion: The double burden of malnutrition in males and females aged 17-22 years in Banda Aceh, Aceh, Indonesia is undernutrition and overnutrition, cases of undernutrition were more numerous than overweight and obesity, even though the number of malnutrition cases did not show any difference between men and women in all categories.

Abstract

Chromolaena odorata L. is a plant traditionally used in herbal medicine. The leaves of C. odorata contain bioactive compounds with high antioxidant activity, making them potential therapeutic agents for hyperpigmentation and inflammation. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is an extrinsic factor and a major cause of skin aging, known as photoaging. Photoaging is a process due to chronic UV exposure that induces the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Excess ROS, surpassing body's antioxidant capacity, leads to skin barrier damage, DNA damage, and hyperpigmentation. Photoprotection is essential to mitigate these effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant activity of C. odorata leaf ethanol extract cream and its effect on melanocyte cell and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-) levels in male Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus). A true experimental post-test with control group design was used, involving 42 male Wistar rats divided into seven groups: Group Ino UVB exposure, cream base only; group IIUVB exposure only; group IIIUVB exposure with cream base; group IVUVB exposure with 5% C. odorata ethanol extract cream; group VUVB exposure with 10% C. odorata ethanol extract cream; group VIUVB exposure with 2% hydroquinone cream; and group VIIUVB exposure with 5% vitamin C cream. C. odorata extract was formulated into a cream and tested for antioxidant activity using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. The cream was topically applied to rats dorsal skin irradiated with UVB for three weeks following a scheduled exposure protocol. At weeks 3 and 6, three rats per group were euthanized using cervical dislocation, and 55 cm dorsal skin samples were collected for histological analysis of melanocyte count and TNF- levels via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). The results showed that C. odorata ethanol extract cream contained strong antioxidants with an IC50 of 57.7 mg/L. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences in melanocyte count and TNF- levels among groups at weeks 3 and 6 (p0.05). The 10% C. odorata extract cream had the lowest melanocyte counts, while the 5% C. odorata extract cream exhibited the lowest TNF- levels, indicating the extracts photoprotective and anti-inflammatory effects.
