Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is one of many health problems that have an impact on productivity and reduce the quality of human resources. Diabetes is a metabolic disorder characterized by high blood glucose levels and several symptoms including polyuria, polydipsia, polyphagia and weight loss. This community service aims to increase knowledge and awareness in the prevention and management of Diabetes Mellitus and to find out the category of blood sugar levels in the Roto Kenongo Sewon Residential Community, Bantul District, Yogyakarta. The method used is socialization with lectures and discussions as well as checking the current blood sugar (GDS). The number of participants in this community service was attended by 30 participants. The results of this service found that 3 people got GDS results 200 mg/dl in the DM category. The results of education on management of DM, the community was enthusiastic and able to answer several questions during the discussion session.

Abstract

Background: Smoking is a major risk factor for chronic inflammation that plays a crucial role in the development of degenerative diseases, particularly cardiovascular disorders. Inflammatory responses induced by cigarette smoke exposure can be assessed using sensitive inflammatory biomarkers such as high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) as well as nonspecific inflammatory parameters like the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). Objective: This study aimed to analyze the correlation between hs-CRP levels and ESR values among active smokers at PT. ASA Surabaya. Methods: This study employed an analytical cross-sectional design and was conducted at Parahita Laboratory, Surabaya, from April to May 2022. The study sample consisted of 30 active smokers selected using purposive sampling techniques. Data were collected through laboratory examinations of hs-CRP and ESR from blood samples. Statistical analysis was performed using the Spearman correlation test to evaluate the relationship between the two variables. Results: The findings showed that the majority of respondents had hs-CRP levels greater than 3 mg/dL, indicating a high-risk category (90%), while most respondents had ESR values within the normal range (73.33%). Statistical analysis revealed a p-value of 0.792 (p>0.05), indicating no significant correlation between hs-CRP levels and ESR values among active smokers. Conclusion: Elevated hs-CRP levels in active smokers are not consistently accompanied by increased ESR values, suggesting that hs-CRP is more sensitive in detecting subclinical inflammation than ESR. Therefore, hs-CRP is recommended as a more reliable inflammatory biomarker for active smokers, and further studies with larger sample sizes are needed to confirm these findings
