Abstract

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease caused by the spirochete bacterium Leptospira and is transmitted through exposure to the urine of infected animals, either directly or via contaminated water and soil. The disease has a wide clinical spectrum, ranging from mild symptoms to multiorgan involvement. The World Health Organization estimates that there are approximately 873,000 cases of leptospirosis each year worldwide, with more than 40,000 deaths. In Indonesia, 920 cases with 122 deaths were reported in 2019, although the true number is believed to be higher, with an estimated incidence of about 39.2 per 100,000 population. Transmission mainly occurs in high-risk environments such as during floods and among certain occupational groups. After entering the body, Leptospira spreads to the kidneys, liver, and lungs, potentially causing renal failure, jaundice, pulmonary hemorrhage, and fatal complications. Treatment should be initiated promptly based on clinical suspicion. Mild cases are treated with doxycycline 100 mg twice daily for 7 days, whereas severe cases require intravenous penicillin G at 1.5 million units every 6 hours for 7 days or ceftriaxone 1–2 g per day. About 90% of cases are mild, but mortality can reach 10% in severe cases.

Abstract

Sharks are a group of cartilaginous fish that are vulnerable to the impacts of overfishing due to their slow growth and limited reproductive ability. Therefore, it is important to periodically collect data on shark species to update population information and identify endangered species. This study used a direct observation method with data collection based on morphological characters to identify the shark species found. Data analysis was carried out descriptively qualitatively. The results of the study recorded 44 individual sharks from various species. Chiloscyllium punctatum was recorded as the most commonly found species with 14 individuals, while Chiloscyllium hasselti was only recorded as 5 individuals. Based on conservation status, 5 shark species were found that were included in Appendix II of CITES and there were 3 non-Appendix species. These findings indicate the importance of conservation efforts to prevent future declines in shark populations
