Abstract

High blood cholesterol levels are risk factors that cause an increase in Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) that it can form clots and plaque in the vascular which will result in the formation of atherosclerosis. Galactomannan is a natural ingredient that can reduce blood cholesterol levels by inhibiting its absorption and forming hydrogen bonds with cholesterol. In Indonesia, a potential source of galactomannan is coconut (Cocos Nucifera L). This study aims to determine the effect of consumption of young coconuts on cholesterol levels in healthy people. This research is an experimental clinical trial study with a pretest-posttest design. The sample of this study was twenty healthy people aged 18-25 years consisting of 10 men and 10 women. The treatment is in the form of consumption of coconut with 250 gram coconut meat and 150 mL coconut water with administration once a day for 14 days. The beginning and the end of the treatment blood cholesterol level were examined. after the treatment of coconut, consumption obtained a decrease in blood cholesterol levels by 17 participants and 3 participants with an increase in blood cholesterol levels. it can be concluded that there is a significant influence on the consumption of young coconuts to reduce blood cholesterol levels in healthy people.

Abstract

Atherosclerosis is a chronic disease due to fat accumulation in the blood vessel walls. Atherosclerosis is the leading cause of cardiovascular disease. Indonesian people’s habit of consuming coconut milk is suspected of causing dyslipidemia, a risk factor for atherosclerosis, by increasing low-density lipoprotein (LDL). However, other studies suggest that coconut milk can increase high-density lipoprotein (HDL), an antioxidant that prevents atherosclerosis. Because of the different findings, this study aims to determine the effects of coconut milk administration on the aortic wall thickness of rats (Rattus norvegicus strain Wistar) fed a high-fat diet (HFD). This true experimental study used samples of 28 male Wistar rats divided into seven groups. These groups consisted of the normal group (N), the negative control group (Kn), and five treatment groups that received coconut milk at various doses, including 2, 5, 3.75, 5, 7. 5, and 10 ml/kgBW/day. The results obtained were then analyzed using SPSS. The statistical tests used are the independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, LSD post hoc, Pearson correlation test, and regression test. Based on this study, the results showed that giving HFD for 45 days could cause the aortic wall to thicken. Meanwhile, giving an HFD accompanied by coconut milk for 45 days can prevent the thickening of the aortic wall, with the maximum effective dose that can be given being 9.75 ml/kg BW/day.

Abstract

Diazinon, an organophosphate pesticide, is used extensively in agricultural sector. Consumption of agricultural products containing diazinon residue may lead to harmful health consequences. Among these is nephrotoxicity, which includes lipid peroxidation, that can damage the kidney. Flavonoids in shallot peel can scavenge free radicals, inhibit necrosis, and activate bone marrow-derived cells for cell regeneration. This study aimed to determine the correlation between shallot peel infusion (SPI) dose and kidney damage amelioration to establish the maximum effective dose of SPI to ameliorate kidney histopathological damage in diazinon-induced rats. This study was performed at the Pharmacology Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine, University of Jember, Indonesia, in April 2021, on 35 rats that were divided into 7 groups—normal, diazinon, and five treatment groups. Diazinon 40 mg/kgBW was administered on day 1-7, while SPI 125, 250, 500, 1,000, 2,000 mg/kgBW were administered on day 8–14 according to the treatment group. Kidney histopathological slides with hematoxylin-eosin (H.E.) staining were assessed using Kocoglu scoring and Kidney damage scores of the treatment groups were analyzed using Pearson test. The maximum effective dose was determined using regression test. The damages found in diazinon-induced rats were tubular degeneration, necrosis, and inflammation with a higher damage score than normal rats (p<0.05). Pearson test showed moderate correlation (coefficient -0.594). Higher SPI doses presented lower kidney damage scores, with 1,359 mg/kgBW being the maximum effective dose. SPI dose and the kidney damage amelioration are moderately correlated with a SPI maximum effective dose to ameliorate kidney damage in diazinon-induced rats of 1,359 mg/kgBW.

Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of intracavernosal injections of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) as an alternative therapy for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. Material & Methods: We conducted a comprehensive literature search on Pubmed, Cochrane Library, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and Proquest databases for randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) until April 2023. The study protocol has been registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO CRD42023424586). Results: Our results showed that PRP could improve MCID in IIEF-EF score (OR: 4.64; 95% CI: 2.20, 9.79; p < 0.0001; I2 = 77%) and PSV (MD: 9.63; 95% CI: 1.17, 18.09; p = 0.03; I2 = 73%). In addition, PRP administration was shown to be relatively safe, and there was no significant difference in post-injection VAS pain scores when compared to controls (MD: -0.09; 95% CI: -0.49, 0.31; p = 0.66; I2 = 84%). Conclusion: This systematic review and meta-analysis showed promising results regarding the effects of PRP administration on erectile dysfunction. However, due to the lack of quality and number of studies, these findings should be interpreted carefully, and further investigations are still needed.
