Abstract

Humans who use medicines for insomnia may experience a variety of adverse effects, including dependence. Traditional medicine frequently uses lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) to treat various conditions, including sleep difficulties. Terpenoids, which are secondary metabolites found in lettuce plants, are to blame for this. This study aimed to see if an ethanolic extract of lettuce leaf had any sedative-hypnotic activity in Swiss Webster strain male white mice induced by phenobarbital at a dose of 90 mg/KgBB intraperitoneally. In this study, the post-test-only control strategy was employed. The animals were divided into six groups (n = 4): negative (aqua dest), positive (Na-CMC 0.5%), comparison (diazepam 1.3 mg/KgBB), and ethanolic extract of lettuce leaf at doses of 300 mg/KgBB, 400 mg/KgBB, and 500 mg/KgBB. The parameters observed in this study were a combination of parameters from previous studies, namely the number of falls, sleep onset, and sleep duration in mice. The data obtained were then processed statistically using the one-way ANOVA (analysis of variance) and post-hoc test follow-up analysis with the LSD (least significant difference) test. The results showed that the ethanolic extract of lettuce leaves at 300, 400, and 500 mg/KgBB had a sedative-hypnotic effect. Doses of 300 mg/KgBB only increased sleep duration. In contrast, 400 and 500 mg/KgBB increased the number of falls, rapid sleep onset, and increased sleep duration, significantly different from positive controls (p<0.05). The effective dose of ethanolic extract of lettuce leaf as a sedative-hypnotic was 400 mg/KgBB.

Abstract

Pharmacists are competent health professionals in drug management. Many efforts have been made so that the role of pharmacists in carrying out pharmaceutical work is more felt in the community. Therefore, community service is carried out in the form of education on introducing the pharmacist profession, wisely choosing snacks, and about the dangers of cigarettes and drugs. It is expected that from this service, students who are part of the community can better understand the pharmacist profession and its role in adolescent health. Education was carried out on MIT and MTs Baitul Aziz Majalaya students. Before the education, a pretest was carried out and after the education, a posttest was carried out using a questionnaire related to the material. Data were processed and analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results of the education showed that the level of knowledge of MIT students increased, especially in the good category, from 8% to 76% for knowledge of the pharmacist profession, and from 80% to 95% for knowledge of wisely choosing snacks. In addition, the level of knowledge of MTs students regarding the dangers of cigarettes and drugs also increased, especially in the good category from 13% to 75% after education.

Abstract

The limited scientific evidence on the analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects of Polypodium feei roots, despite their traditional use in rheumatism treatment, highlights the need for pharmacological validation. The study investigates the analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties of Polypodium feei roots, a traditional medicine used to treat rheumatism, in mice and rats with carrageenan-induced paw edema, using acetylsalicylic acid and tramadol as analgesics and diclofenac sodium as an anti-inflammatory. The writhing test results demonstrate that the extract of P. feei roots (EPFR) at dosages of 50 and 100 mg/kgBW lowered the writhing responses of rat significantly (p <0.01). The dose of 100 mg/kgBW provided more protection than acetylsalicylic acid at a level of 65 mg/kgBW. In the hot plate method, the extract increased the latency period significantly (p <0.05) as compared with the control. In the anti-inflammatory examination, the EPFR decreased edema of rat paws induced by carrageenan. The significant effect of the EPFR was shown by the dose of 100 mg/kgBW (p <0.05), but its inhibition was lower than that of a standard agent, diclofenac sodium. This study concluded that the EPFR may have peripherally and centrally analgesic activity and anti-inflammatory activity. This evidence supports the folklore claim of the efficacy of EPFR as traditional medicine for rheumatism.

Abstract

Hypertension is a non-communicable disease often referred to as a "silent killer" because it may develop without noticeable symptoms and can lead to serious complications if left untreated. Elderly individuals are among the high-risk groups who require special attention in efforts to prevent and control hypertension. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge of elderly residents regarding hypertension through health education as a preventive measure against further complications. The program was conducted in Parakan Village, Garut Regency, involving 30 elderly participants. The method used was health education combined with pre-test and post-test assessments to evaluate knowledge improvement. The results showed a significant increase in understanding after the session, particularly regarding the symptoms and prevention of hypertension. Another notable finding was that most participants had only elementary-level education, which influenced their receptiveness to health information. In conclusion, health education proved effective in enhancing the elderly's knowledge of hypertension and its potential complications. Periodic follow-up education and collaboration with local health services are recommended to sustain the impact.
