Abstract

ABSTRACT Background: Wound tissue infection is a problem in developing countries. The cause of the infection must be known, so that appropriate antibiotics are given for that required microbiological examination. The number of Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) >25/HPF and the number of colonies >105/Colony Forming Unit (CFU) determine the occurrence of infection. Proving the relationship between the number of leukocytes and bacteria in the wound swab sample to the number of colonies in superficial Surgical site infection (SSI). Methods: This study was an Observational analytical research design with 35 samples of superficial SSI. Microscopic examination: gram stain to see the number of leukocytes and bacteria in a large field of view. Culture examination: number of colonies, identification of microorganisms, and patterns of antibiotic sensitivity with automatic machines. Statistical analysis for the relationship between the number of leukocytes and bacteria to the number of colonies was Chi-square and logistic regression. Results: Superficial SSI samples were more common at the age <60 years, with malignancy comorbid. The most common cause of infection is Escherichia coli. The results of the Chi-square test showed that the number of leukocytes (p=0.017) and the number of bacteria (p=<0.01) were related to the number of colonies, and logistic regression tests found that the number of bacteria was significant to the number of colonies (p=0.010, 95% C1: 0.030–0.624). Conclusion: The number of bacteria associated with the number of bacterial colonies in patients with superficial SSI.

Abstract

ABSTRACTThe prevalence of worm infection in children in Indonesia is still quite high, that is approximately 45-65% and in areas with poor environmental conditions it can reach 80%. Worm infection result in loss of nutritional intake such as carbohydrates and protein which has an impact on reducing the quality of resourcesman. This condition can hinder physique development, intelligence and productivity, lower body resilience, decrease human resources and increase risk of ill and death. Prevention and control of worm infection requires effort to increasing clean and healthy living behavior. SDN 208/IV is one of the public elementary schools in Jambi City which was founded in 2017 and is still accredited C. This elementary school still lacks facilities, including cleaning facilities or toilets. This can be a health problem because PHBS certainly requires adequate facilities. The education program were carried out targeting all students at SDN 208/IV Jambi City using an interactive discussion method. This program aims to increase children's knowledge about worms that can infect humans, symptoms, transmission methods, prevention and treatment of worm infections. Beside that, a six-step hand washing exercise demonstration was also carried out so that children could apply PHBS well. Level knowledge respondents be measured throughquestionnaire as much two time that is before counseling (pre test) and after counseling (post test) whichconsists from 20 item question. From data analysis of questionnaire results before counseling (pre test) andafter counseling (post test) obtained average (mean) results pre test 70.12 with a standard deviation of 13.78 and an average post test result of 80.56 with a standard deviation of 1 1.40 . There was increase in average yield questionnaire after counseling compared before counseling. It means counseling to students at SDN 208/IV Jambi City enough beneficial in increase knowledge student about prevention worms.Keywords: worms, counseling, SDN 208/IV ABSTRAKPrevalensi kecacingan pada anak di Indonesia masih cukup tinggi yaitu antara 45-65% dan di daerah yang kondisi lingkungannya buruk bisa mencapai 80%. Kecacingan mengakibatkan kehilangan asupan gizi seperti karbohidrat danprotein serta kehilangan darah yang berdampak menurunnya kualitas sumber dayamanusia. Kondisi ini dapat menghambat perkembangan fisik, kecerdasan dan produktivitas, menurunkanketahanan tubuh sehingga mudah terkena penyakit sehingga berakibat menurunnya kualitas sumberdaya manusia dan risiko tinggi kesakitan dan kematian. Pencegahan dan penanggulangan penyakit kecacingan memerlukan upaya peningkatan perilaku hidup bersih dan sehat (PHBS). Pada kegiatan pengabdian ini, dilakukan penyuluhan dengan metode diskusi interaktif untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan anak mengenai cacing yang dapat menginfeksi manusia, gejala, cara penularan, pencegahan dan pengobatan infeksi cacing. Selain itu juga dilakukan demonstrasi senam cuci tangan enam Langkah agar anak dapat menerapkan PHBS dengan baik. Tingkat pengetahuan responden diukur melalui kueisionersebanyak dua kali yaitu sebelum penyuluhan (pre test) dan setelah penyuluhan (post test) yang terdiri dari20 butir pertanyaan.

Abstract

 Latar Belakang: Persepsi yang berkembang di masyarakat umum mengenai persalinan adalah bahwa persalinan merupakan pengalaman yang menyakitkan dan berisiko. Hal ini dapat mempengaruhi kepercayaan diri ibu hamil dalam menghadapi proses persalinan. Gentle birth merupakan salah satu pendekatan dalam asuhan kehamilan dan persalinan yang dapat membantu ibu mengurangi tingkat kecemasan sejak masa kehamilan. Untuk mendukung keberhasilan gentle birth, salah satu upaya yang dapat dilakukan adalah dengan berlatih prenatal gentle yoga. Tujuan penelitian: Penelitian ini menilai hubungan antara praktik yoga prenatal, persepsi ibu hamil tentang persalinan, dan tingkat self-efficacy dalam menghadapi proses kelahiran. Metode: Desain penelitian adalah cross-sectional dengan 54 responden ibu hamil tanpa komplikasi di Kabupaten Blora (2025). Persepsi diukur menggunakan skala persepsi manfaat yoga, sedangkan self-efficacy dinilai memakai Childbirth Self-Efficacy Inventory (CBSEI). Uji Chi-Square dan Fisher Exact digunakan untuk menganalisis keterkaitan variabel. Hasil: Sebanyak 64,8 % responden mengikuti yoga prenatal. Jumlah kehamilan berhubungan signifikan dengan persepsi ibu (p = 0,034); ibu multipara cenderung melihat persalinan secara lebih positif. Tingkat self-efficacy dipengaruhi oleh wilayah tempat tinggal (p = 0,006) dan partisipasi yoga (p < 0,001). Ibu yang tinggal di perkotaan serta rutin berlatih yoga menunjukkan keyakinan diri lebih tinggi menghadapi persalinan dibandingkan kelompok lainnya. Kesimpulan: Yoga prenatal bukan hanya latihan fisik, tetapi juga sarana meningkatkan kesiapan psikologis ibu hamil. Integrasi kelas yoga dengan edukasi kebidanan berbasis komunitas—terutama di wilayah pedesaan—direkomendasikan untuk memperkuat kepercayaan diri ibu dan mendorong pengalaman persalinan yang lebih positif

Abstract

Indonesia, as an agricultural country, has a large population working in the agricultural sector. Agricultural activities often involve the use of chemicals that can cause skin disorders, one of which is contact dermatitis. Contact dermatitis is an occupational disease with a high prevalence, both globally and nationally. As a form of concern for the increasing number of dermatitis cases among farmers, a community service activity was conducted in Mlati Village, Grobogan Regency. This activity aimed to increase farmers' awareness and knowledge regarding contact dermatitis prevention. The intervention included educational sessions, interactive discussions, role-plays, pre- and post-tests, and the distribution of skin health information leaflets. The activity was carried out by the Health Promotion Team from the Faculty of Medicine, Semarang State University. The evaluation results showed an increase in participants' understanding of the symptoms of contact dermatitis by 11.86% of the 21 participants who attended. Materials considered important by participants included the importance of maintaining personal hygiene after contact with chemicals, as well as the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) during work. The participants' enthusiasm was also evident in their active participation in the discussion sessions and hands-on practice. However, there was still a lack of in-depth understanding of skin health care. This demonstrates the need for regular follow-up education to reinforce the program's positive impact. Overall, these activities demonstrate the critical importance of community-based health promotion in reducing the risk of occupational skin diseases and encouraging healthier and safer behavior changes in farmers.

Abstract

Background: Chitinase is an enzyme crucial in chitin biodegradation, breaking the 1,4-N-α-acetyl-D-glucosamine bonds of its monomers. It is produced by a wide range of organisms, from microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi to macroorganisms including humans. Chitinases have been widely studied for applications in biological control, environmental management, and medical fields, including immune modulation and infection therapy. However, there is still a research gap due to the limited number of systematic comparative studies examining the structural, genetic, and functional differences among chitinases from various biological sources. This limitation hinders optimal and targeted use of chitinases in enzyme-based technologies, particularly for medical applications. Therefore, comprehensive studies are needed not only to describe chitinases by their sources but also to evaluate their practical potential and innovative opportunities for human health. Methods: This study uses a narrative literature review approach. Articles were collected, screened, and systematically organized according to their scope, focusing on chitinase sources, mechanisms of action, and applications in healthcare. Results: The analysis shows fundamental differences in domain structure, gene expression, and catalytic mechanisms of chitinases from bacteria, fungi, and humans. Bacterial chitinases exhibit environmental stability and serve as infection biomarkers, fungal chitinases excel in immunotherapy and bioactive compound production, and human chitinases, though less explored, show potential in precision diagnostics and inflammatory therapy. Conclusions: This cross-domain comparison maps structural and functional characteristics and opens opportunities for integrating cross-species enzyme functions for innovative enzyme-based biopharmaceuticals and precision therapies addressing modern pathogens

Abstract

Childbirth requires both physical and mental readiness, yet many women face it with anxiety and insufficient preparation. Prenatal Yoga is increasingly recognized as a holistic intervention that integrates physical, psychological, and emotional preparation. This study aimed to examine the effect of Prenatal Yoga on the physical and mental readiness of pregnant women in facing childbirth. A cross-sectional quantitative study was conducted in May 2025 involving 54 pregnant women in Blora Regency. Data were collected using structured questionnaires to assess physical readiness (body flexibility and discomfort) and mental readiness (anxiety and relaxation) through the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS). The association between Prenatal Yoga and readiness was analyzed using Chi-Square and Fisher’s Exact tests. The study found no significant association between socio-demographic factors or yoga practice and physical readiness. In contrast, mental readiness was significantly associated with place of residence (p = 0.006), maternal education (p = 0.025), and participation in prenatal yoga (p = 0.000). Prenatal Yoga emerged as the strongest predictor of mental readiness for childbirth, highlighting its potential as a safe, accessible, and effective strategy to reduce anxiety, enhance self-efficacy, and improve emotional resilience. Promoting Prenatal Yoga within maternal health programs may empower women to face childbirth with greater confidence and mental preparedness.

Abstract

ABSTRACTMycobacterium tuberculosis is a group of rod-shaped bacteria and acid-fast bacteria that cause infections in the respiratory system or in other body parts such as the brain and bones. Microscopic examination is the easiest, inexpensive and specific examination and can be carried out in all laboratories. For this reason, microscopic examination is the key in carrying out TB control and prevention programs in establishing the diagnosis and evaluation of treatment for TB patients, namely by Ziehl Neelsen staining. Pondok is a dense dwelling and makes Islamic boarding schools often experience health problems. Insufficient ventilation and low sunlight so that the humidity in the room is quite high. Based on this, tuberculosis screening in Islamic boarding schools is important to do. The implementation of this service was carried out at the Nurul Iman Islamic Boarding School, Jambi City, with inclusion criteria for sputum examination with Ziehl Neelsen staining. Staining was carried out in the biomedical laboratory of FKIK UNJA. 23 sputum samples for TB screening did not find Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection with more sample characteristics of male samples with cough <2 weeks. Mycobacterium tuberculosis was not found in students of the Nurul Iman Islamic Boarding School, Jambi City.Keywords: Islamic boarding school, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Ziehl Nelsen, Sputum ABSTRAKMycobacterium tuberculosis adalah golongan bakteri berbentuk batang dan bakteri tahan asam yang menyebabkan infeksi pada system pernapasan atau pada bagian tubuh yang lain seperti otak dan tulang.

Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Treatment of tuberculosis consists of two phases, the intensive phase for 2 months and the continuation phase for 6-12 months. One of the factors associated with tuberculosis is nutritional status. If the patient has poor nutritional status, the risk of being infected with tuberculosis will increase. Likewise, if a patient is infected with tuberculosis, the risk of suffering from malnutrition will increase due to the side effects of taking anti-tuberculosis drugs and increased metabolism from Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. This has a huge influence on the patient's recovery. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between treatment phase and nutritional status in adult tuberculosis patients at Public Health Centers in Jambi City. Methods: This study is an analytic type of research using a cross sectional design. This research was conducted in several Public Health Centers in Jambi City from July to October 2022. Nutritional status was assessed based on the value of Body Mass Index (BMI). The relationship between treatment phase and nutritional status was analyzed using the chi-square test. Results: The number of samples in this study were 71 patients consisting of 90.1% pulmonary TB patients and 9.9% extra pulmonary TB patients. A total of 59.2% of patients were in the intensive phase of treatment and the majority of patients had underweight nutritional status (60.6%). The results of statistical analysis obtained p value < 0.001. Conclusion: There is a relationship between treatment phase and nutritional status in adult tuberculosis patients at the Public Health Centers in Jambi City.
