Abstract

Soil-Transmitted Helminths (STH) infections are a significant public health issue in tropical regions, particularly among communities with poor sanitation, such as waste workers at the Suwung Landfill in Denpasar. Helminth egg examination is commonly conducted using the direct smear method with eosin staining; however, synthetic dyes have limitations such as high cost and environmental concerns. This study aimed to compare the staining results of STH eggs in fecal preparations using natural dried turmeric dye and eosin through the slide direct method. This research is descriptive in nature, using a qualitative approach. involving 30 STH-positive fecal samples stained using a dried turmeric extract solution (5 g turmeric powder in 20 mL of 96% ethanol) and eosin. Observation parameters included egg color intensity and background contrast. The results showed that staining with dried turmeric revealed 2 positive samples (13.33%), while eosin staining revealed 5 positive samples (33.3%) for STH eggs. The identified helminth species was Ascaris lumbricoides. Eosin was found to be more effective in highlighting the morphology of helminth eggs. However, dried turmeric still shows potential as a supplementary stain due to its accessibility, affordability, and environmental friendliness.

Abstract

Tinea versicolor is a common superficial fungal infection found in tropical regions such as Indonesia. This condition is often caused by Malassezia furfur, especially in environments with high temperature and humidity and less than optimal hygiene. This study aimed to identify the presence of M. furfur in elementary school children in Banjar Dinas Batang, Karangasem, Bali, a region with a cool, humid climate and limited sanitation access. The study used a descriptive design with a purposive sampling approach, involving 23 children aged 6–18 years who showed skin lesion symptoms and had not undergone antifungal therapy. Skin scrapings were examined microscopically using a 10% KOH solution combined with Parker ink. Observations were made at 100× and 400× magnifications, identifying the distinctive morphology of M. furfur as a “spaghetti and meatballs” structure. Of the 23 samples examined, 13 (56.5%) tested positive for Malassezia furfur. The majority of cases occurred in boys (83%). Hygiene data showed that 61% bathed once a day, 78% changed clothes twice a day, but 87% washed clothes only once a week. Furthermore, most respondents (56%) used rainwater as their source of clean water. The relatively high prevalence of M. furfur infection reflects the strong influence of the humid environment, inadequate sanitation, and suboptimal hygiene behaviors. Microscopic examination using the KOH and Parker ink method proved effective as an initial screening tool in rural areas. Nevertheless, health education interventions and improved access to clean water are needed to reduce the incidence of skin fungal infections in children

Abstract

Infeksi menular tuberculosis paru memiliki angka kejadian yang cukup tinggi di masyarakat. Adanya riwayat kontak khususnya dengan anggota keluarga serumah dilaporkan beresiko dapam peningkatan penularan TB paru. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan tujuan melakukan analisa terhadap hubungan riwayat kontak serumah dengan kejadian TB paru pada pasien suspek TB di RSUD Kabupaten Buleleng. Jenis penelitian adalah analitik observasional secara cross sectional. Penentuan besaran sampel menggunakan simple random sampling, dimana sampel berjumlah 204 responden suspek TB paru. Data dikumpulkan melalui pengisian kuesioner, wawancara serta pemeriksaan pemeriksaan Tes Cepat Molekuler (TCM) Gene Xpert. Data dilakukan analisa melalui uji univariat serta bivariat. Uji bivariat dilakukan melalui uji Chi-Square. Berdasarkan uji univariat diketahui bahwa dari 204 responden penelitian menunjukkan hasil positif TB paru melalui pemeriksaan TCM. Sementara itu sebanyak 169 responden (82,84%) negatif TB paru. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat 34 responden (16,67%) mimiliki resiko riwayat kontak serumah beresiko sedangkan tidak berisiko sebanyak 170 orang (83,33%). Hasil analisis bivariat melalui uji Chi-Square didapatkan besaran nilai p-value < 0,05 sehingga disimpulkan terdapat hubungan bermakna terkait adanya riwayat kontak paparan serumah dengan kejadian TB paru pada pasien di RSUD Kabupaten Buleleng. Upaya skrining kontak serumah, edukasi kesehatan, dan penguatan program contact tracing diperlukan untuk menurunkan risiko penularan TB di masyarakat.
