Abstract

This study aimed to determine the description of the diet and physical activity in students of the Faculty of Medicine related to obesity. This type of research is descriptive research with the cross-sectional method. The population in this study were all preclinical students of the Faculty of Medicine. The samples in this study were preclinical students from the class of 2015 with a sampling technique, namely the purposive sample technique. Primary data were obtained from questionnaires. Univariate analysis with frequency distribution analysis. The results of the study on students of the Faculty of Medicine from 180 respondents there were 23 people (13%), normal weight 112 people (62%), pre-obesity 33 people (18%), obesity as many as seven people (4%), and obesity II as many as five people (3%). Students who were pre-obese, obese I, and obese II were doing light activities as many as 15 people, 20 people doing moderate activities, and ten people doing strenuous activities. Students who have pre-obesity, obesity I, and obesity II are known as many as 20 people rarely consume fast food, and as many as 25 people often consume fast food. Abstrak: Tujuan penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui gambaran pola makan dan aktivitas fisik pada mahasiswa Fakultas Kedokteran yang berhubungan dengan obesitas.

Abstract

Stomatocytes are erythrocytes characterized by a slit-like central pallor. Although they may appear in small numbers under physiological conditions, increased proportions are often associated with pathological states. Establishing population-specific reference intervals is therefore essential to avoid misinterpretation of erythrocyte morphology. This study aims to determine the reference interval for Stomatocyte counts in a healthy population from Jakarta and its surrounding areas, and to assess their relationship with routine hematological and biochemical parameters. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among healthy individuals undergoing health check-ups at UKI General Hospital and East Bekasi Hospital from August 2022 to October 2024. Of 65 samples collected, 54 met the inclusion criteria. Stomatocyte counts were evaluated from peripheral blood smears by counting per 1,000 erythrocytes. Reference intervals were established using the 2.5th to 97.5th percentile method. The overall reference interval for Stomatocytes was 0 - 1.85%. Gender-specific intervals were 0 - 2.0% in men and 0 - 1.7% in women. No significant associations were observed between Stomatocyte counts and complete blood count parameters, liver function tests, or kidney function tests. In conclusion, Stomatocytes may be present at low levels in healthy individuals, with a locally derived reference interval of 0 - 1.85%. These findings highlight the importance of applying clearly defined reference intervals and considering clinical context when interpreting erythrocyte morphology to prevent overdiagnosis. Keywords: Stomatocytes, Reference Values, Erythrocyte Morphology,  Peripheral Blood Smear.

Abstract

Acne vulgaris (AV), commonly known as acne, is a common skin problem that can cause skin damage. AV is a form of chronic inflammation of the pilosebaceous follicles due to blockage. According to the Global Burden of Disease (GBD), 85% of people, including young adults aged 12 to 25, have experienced AV. One factor that often exacerbates the occurrence of AV is the use of cosmetics with comedogenic properties. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a relationship between cosmetic use and the occurrence of AV in female students of the Faculty of Medicine, Christian University of Indonesia class of 2023. Observational analysis research with a cross-sectional approach was used in this study. A total of 85 samples were obtained using the research method, namely purposive sampling. Data collection was conducted at a single point in time to explore cosmetic use related to AV events. Data analysis using univariate and bivariate techniques. From the total, 76 respondents (89.4%) experienced AV and 9 respondents (10.6%) didn’t. The Fisher Exact Test results obtained a P value > 0.05, this indicates that there was no significant relationship between cosmetic use and AV incidents in these female students.
