Abstract

Background & Objective Indonesia is a developing country where Fe deficiency anemia is common. Fe deficiency anemia is a malnutrition disease caused by a lack of Fe in the patient's body. Fe deficiency anemia is triggered by a lack of Fe in the body for the formation of hemoglobin, causing patients to experience blood deficiency and thinning of oral mucosal epithelial cells which can cause oral candidiasis. Analyzing the description of oral candidiasis in patients with Fe deficiency anemia. Methods  This study is a descriptive study that recruited a total sampling of 17 patients with Fe deficiency anemia. Oral candidiasis in Fe deficiency anemia was measured by planting on sabouraud dextrose agar (SDA) media and sugars media then observed macroscopically and microscopically from SDA and sugars cultures using a microscope. Results Based on the results of the study, 15 (88%) positive respondents and 2 (12%) negative respondents. Conclusion The results of the examination of oral candidiasis as many as 15 samples were affected by oral candidiasis caused by Candida albicans.

Abstract

Introduction: In general, food coloring can be obtained from natural dyes and safe synthetic food dyes. Natural dyes are sometimes considered less stable and less durable than synthetic food dyes. Although there are synthetic dyes that are safe for food, there are still people who use materials that are not suitable for use in food. The use of harmful food dyes must be monitored and recognized for their existence. Harmful food dyes that are commonly found are textile dyes such as Rhodamine B or methanyl yellow. Because it is not a proper food coloring, consumption of foods containing this ingredient can cause a series of health problems for those who consume it, especially in a relatively long period of time. This education aims to allow students to distinguish foods that use natural coloring agents and artificial coloring agents. The results of this activity students can find out the characteristics of foods that use harmful dyes and know the prevention that can be done. Objective: The purpose of this service is for SMAN 1 SUKADANA students to know the dangers of using hazardous coloring agents in food. Method: The method used is providing education by providing material to students, tests before and after material on the Use of Harmful Coloring Substances in Food. Result: Increased knowledge and attitudes of students are tested through pre-test and post-test. There has been an increase in knowledge in students about the dangers of using harmful dyes in food in general by 20%, so that the realization of the purpose of this service is expected to be able to distinguish food ingredients that contain harmful coloring agents in food and those that do not contain harmful coloring agents in food. Basically, knowledge and attitudes also depend on the high or low level of education of students. Therefore, the existence of this counseling can help students in adding insight into the dangers of using harmful dyes. The implementation of this activity can run well due to positive support in the implementation process, where support from various parties and there are no obstacles whatsoever. Conclusion: The socialization activity on the use of dangerous coloring substances in food to students at SMAN 1 Sukadana received a good response from the school and also students. With outreach activities regarding this, students will understand and be more careful in choosing food to avoid these chemicals.

Abstract

Pleural effusion is a clinical condition that may indicate serious underlying diseases, including infection, malignancy, and systemic disorders. Cytological examination of pleural fluid plays an important role in determining the possible etiology of pleural effusion and requires proper fixation to preserve cellular morphology and staining quality. This study aimed to evaluate the cytological characteristics and preparation quality of pleural fluid specimens fixed in 96% alcohol for 15 minutes and 30 minutes using the Papanicolaou staining method. This quasi-experimental study included 16 pleural fluid samples obtained from routine laboratory examinations. Each sample was processed into four cytological smears, consisting of two duplicate smears fixed in 96% alcohol for 15 minutes and two duplicate smears fixed in 96% alcohol for 30 minutes. A total of 64 smears were evaluated, with 32 smears in each fixation group. All smears were stained using the Papanicolaou method and assessed microscopically based on background appearance, cellular morphology, nuclear characteristics, and overall staining quality. Of the 32 smears fixed for 15 minutes, 20 smears (62,5%) were classified as poor quality and 12 smears (37,5%) as good quality. In contrast, among the 32 smears fixed for 30 minutes, 3 smears (9,4%) were classified as poor quality and 29 smears (90,6%) as good quality. These findings indicate that fixation using 96% alcohol for 30 minutes produces better cytological preparation quality than fixation for 15 minutes. Therefore, a 30-minute fixation period is recommended to support optimal cytological evaluation and diagnostic accuracy.

Abstract

Gastritis is an inflammation of the gastric mucosa that may be caused by various factors, including irregular dietary habits, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) use, psychological stress, alcohol consumption, and Helicobacter pylori infection, which is recognized as a major cause of chronic gastritis. In primary healthcare settings, identification of the underlying etiology of gastritis is often limited by the availability of diagnostic laboratory facilities. Therefore, serological detection of anti-Helicobacter pylori immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies may serve as an alternative diagnostic approach. This study aimed to determine the serological profile of anti-Helicobacter pylori IgG antibodies among patients with chronic gastritis attending the Baregbeg Community Health Center. A descriptive study was conducted involving 24 outpatients diagnosed with chronic gastritis who met the inclusion criteria. Participants were recruited using a total sampling technique. Serum samples were collected and analyzed using an immunochromatographic assay at the Baregbeg Community Health Center Laboratory between April and June 2025. All 24 participants (100%) tested negative for anti-Helicobacter pylori IgG antibodies. No serological evidence of Helicobacter pylori infection was detected among the study participants. In conclusion, no serological evidence of Helicobacter pylori infection was detected among chronic gastritis patients included in this study, with an observed Helicobacter pylori seropositivity rate of 0%.

Abstract

Background & Objectives: Indonesia ranked 5th in the world (22.331%) in terms of anemia incidence in 2019, after Pakistan (22.409%), Nigeria (25.475%), China (54.041%), and India (187.325%). The prevalence of anemia in Indonesia based on data from the 2018 Basic Health Research was 48.9%. Globally, the prevalence of anemia is higher in adolescent girls than in adolescent boys. Anemia is a disease caused by a lack of red blood cells. This study aims to determine anemia screening through hemoglobin testing in female students at STIKes Muhammadiyah Ciamis. Method: The method used in this study was descriptive, with the respondents being female students at STIKes Muhammadiyah Ciamis. Hemoglobin levels were measured using a spectrophotometer with the synehemoglobin method. This study was conducted at the Hematology Laboratory of STIKes Muhammadiyah Ciamis in May 2024. Results: Based on the examination results of 42 samples, 1 person (2%) was found to have moderate anemia, 4 people (10%) had mild anemia, and 37 people (88%) had normal results. Conclusion: The average hemoglobin level of female students at STIKes Muhammadiyah Ciamis is normal.
