Abstract

Background: Osteoporosis is a prevalent bone disease characterized by reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and increased fracture risk. This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of fat mass (FM) and muscle mass measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) in predicting osteoporosis in older adults. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 109 outpatients aged 60 years and older. FM parameters (total fat mass, visceral fat level, and fat mass index [FMI]) and muscle mass parameters (total muscle mass, appendicular skeletal muscle mass [ASM], and appendicular skeletal muscle mass index [ASMI]) were measured using BIA. Osteoporosis was diagnosed based on BMD measurements using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to determine cut-off points and assess the accuracy of BIA parameters in predicting osteoporosis. Results: The prevalence of osteoporosis was 52.3% (n=57). The optimal cut-off points for predicting osteoporosis were: total fat mass >36.25%, visceral fat level >12.05, FMI >7.82 kg/m2, total muscle mass <37.82 kg, ASM <16.795 kg, and ASMI <6.895 kg/m2. Among the FM parameters, visceral fat level had the highest accuracy (AUC = 60.9%, sensitivity = 64.9%, specificity = 78.8%) while FMI had the lowest (AUC = 53.5%, sensitivity = 56.1%, specificity = 57.7%). For muscle mass parameters, ASM showed the highest accuracy (AUC = 74.0%, sensitivity = 70.2%, specificity = 76.9%). Conclusion: BIA-derived FM and muscle mass parameters, particularly visceral fat level and ASM can be used to predict osteoporosis in older adults with good accuracy. This non-invasive and accessible method may be useful as a screening tool for osteoporosis, especially in settings where DXA is unavailable.

Abstract

Background: Osteoporosis, a prevalent bone disease characterized by reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and increased fracture risk, poses a significant public health challenge. Magnesium, an essential mineral involved in bone metabolism, has emerged as a potential therapeutic agent. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effects of magnesium supplementation on bone turnover markers, fracture incidence, and quality of life in individuals with osteoporosis. Methods: A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases was conducted from January 2013 to December 2024 to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating the impact of magnesium supplementation on adults diagnosed with osteoporosis. The primary outcomes were changes in bone turnover markers (serum calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, and osteocalcin), fracture incidence, and quality of life scores. Standardized mean differences (SMD) and risk ratios (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using random-effects models. Results: Nine RCTs met the inclusion criteria, encompassing a total of 825 participants. Magnesium supplementation demonstrated a significant improvement in bone turnover markers, with a decrease in serum alkaline phosphatase (SMD = -0.35; 95% CI: -0.62, -0.08; p = 0.01) and osteocalcin (SMD = -0.29; 95% CI: -0.51, -0.07; p = 0.009). A trend towards reduced fracture incidence was observed in the magnesium group (RR = 0.72; 95% CI: 0.51, 1.02; p = 0.06). Furthermore, magnesium supplementation significantly improved quality of life scores, as measured by the Osteoporosis Quality of Life Questionnaire (OQLQ) (SMD = 0.41; 95% CI: 0.15, 0.67; p = 0.002). Conclusion: This meta-analysis provides evidence that magnesium supplementation may have beneficial effects on bone turnover markers and quality of life in individuals with osteoporosis. Although a trend towards reduced fracture incidence was observed, further large-scale RCTs are warranted to confirm this finding.

Abstract

Background: Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is a rare systemic autoinflammatory disorder characterized by fever, arthritis, rash, and hyperferritinemia. While AOSD commonly presents with systemic and articular manifestations, it can rarely involve other organ systems, including the eye and the coagulation system. Case presentation: We present a case of an 18-year-old male with AOSD who developed hypercoagulability and ocular vasculitis. The patient presented with high-grade fever, polyarthritis, and the characteristic salmon-pink rash. Laboratory investigations revealed leukocytosis, elevated inflammatory markers, and a significant elevation of serum ferritin. Imaging studies ruled out other diagnoses. During the course of his illness, the patient developed hematomas and was found to have elevated fibrinogen and D-dimer levels, suggestive of hypercoagulability. He also experienced ocular symptoms and was diagnosed with ocular vasculitis. The patient was treated with systemic corticosteroids, methotrexate, and anticoagulation therapy, which led to the resolution of his symptoms. Conclusion: This case highlights the rare and serious complications of AOSD, including hypercoagulability and ocular vasculitis. Early recognition and prompt treatment are crucial to prevent morbidity and mortality associated with these complications.

Abstract

Adolescent mental health is an important aspect in optimal growth and development, but mental health literacy among students is still low. This community service activity aims to improve students' mental health literacy through interactive education at SMA Muhammadiyah 16 Lubuk Pakam. The method used is a participatory education approach with a combination of pretest-posttest, discussion, games, and educational videos. The activity was carried out in May 2025 involving 30 grade XI students who were selected purposively. The pretest results showed that only 33% of students had a good understanding of mental health. After the intervention, there was a significant increase, with 90% of students reaching the "good" category and the average score increasing from 39.6 to 92.0. Qualitative evaluation showed that 83% of students felt better able to recognize symptoms of stress, and 70% were interested in forming regular discussion groups. This activity also encouraged students' openness to counseling and received appreciation from the school. The discussion emphasized that interactive-based education is effective in increasing understanding and positive attitudes towards mental health. However, the limited duration of the activity is an obstacle in deepening the material. Therefore, it is recommended that similar programs be conducted periodically and integrated into the school guidance and counseling system through peer counselor training and mental health clubs. Overall, this educational approach proves that schools can be a strategic place to build psychological literacy in adolescents systematically and sustainably.

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a public health problem in Indonesia, including in Tebing Tinggi City. Vector control efforts are carried out through various strategies, including Mosquito Nest Eradication (PSN), the use of larvicides (abatesation), and insecticide spraying (fogging). This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the vector control program in the working area of ​​the Rambung Tebing Tinggi Community Health Center (UPT). The research method uses a qualitative approach through in-depth interviews, observations, and document reviews. Research informants include the head of administration, program officers, mosquito larvae control cadres, and the community. Data analysis was carried out through reduction, presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results show that the PSN is routinely implemented by mosquito larvae control cadres through mosquito larvae surveys, with the support of community health center officers and cross-sectoral collaboration. Abatesation is carried out by distributing abate powder to residents' homes accompanied by education regarding safe use. Fogging is carried out selectively based on the results of epidemiological investigations and has received a positive response, although it is considered only a short-term solution. In general, the vector control program at the Rambung Community Health Center is running quite well, but increased public awareness regarding environmental hygiene and reduced reliance on fogging are needed. Collaboration between health workers, cadres, and the community is key to the success of sustainable dengue control.
