Abstract

Infectious diseases are a threatening health problem in developing countries, including Indonesia. Diseases caused by bacterial infections can be overcome relatively easily after the discovery of various antibiotics. Uncontrolled use of antibiotics will trigger antibiotic resistance. With the incidence of antibiotic resistance, the potential of antibiotics will be reduced in treating infections and diseases in humans, animals and plants. Community service activities aim to provide knowledge to the community about antibiotics, how to use antibiotics wisely, and introduction to the concept of antibiotic resistance. The activities carried out were in the form of empowerment in the form of counseling for the community and assistance in the form of training for groups of prospective antibiotic wise cadres in the Siring Agung Village area. The results of this activity were obtained to increase the insight and knowledge of the community and health cadres about Antibiotic Wisdom, especially the use of antibiotics correctly, how to get them, how to follow up on antibiotic drug waste if it remains. In addition, the community and cadres also have the skills to wash hands properly and correctly using running water and soap independently to prevent transmission of infectious diseases. Furthermore, it is hoped that continuous service activities with similar themes at different layers or levels of society can be carried out in order for the community to know the importance of the principle of using antibiotics wisely so that the incidence of antibiotic drug resistance can be suppressed to increase.

Abstract

Nutrition is a contributing factor in the maintenance of optimal immune system functions. Disturbances in nutritional status, such as malnutrition, would impact various structures, mediators, and processes in the immune system in responding to pathogenic infections, hence increasing vulnerability to infections. Adolescents are an age group often considered “healthy”, but screening in this age group proves important in reassuring optimal growth and development, which in turn will also impact the next generation. Pesantren is an Indonesian educational institution serving adolescents with a boarding school system, so it is of high importance for adolescent santri to know their own nutritional status in preventing infectious diseases. This community service event was held at Pesantren Thawalib Sriwijaya to inform about the importance of nutritional status in prevention of infectious diseases. The activities comprised of classical counseling and anthropometric measurement of participating santri. There were 42 participating santri attending Madrasah Tsanawiyah (MTs) and Madrasah Aliyah (MA) in this event, and plotting results showed most santri had normal nutritional status. However, nutritional status monitoring and awareness to infectious disease still needs to be kept up, as there are various other factors that may influence the spread of various infectious diseases.

Abstract

Noncommunicable diseases, such as hypertension and type 2 diabetes, remain a leading cause of death worldwide, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Recent research trends revealed possible involvement of the gut microbiota in the pathogenesis of these noncommunicable diseases. This article provides a review of recent research trends on the human gut microbiota’s involvement in hypertension and type 2 diabetes, and the potential of its modulation by natural products. Several mechanisms are proposed to explain how the gut microbiota contributes to the development of hypertension and type 2 diabetes, one of which is by changes in short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) production. Phytochemicals targeting modulation of the gut microbiota and SCFAs production may show potential in prevention and therapy of hypertension and diabetes. This may be achieved by affecting the composition of the gut microbiota itself and by modulating the microbiota’s metabolic pathways, such as by stimulating synthesis of SCFAs. However, future studies are still needed considering the complexity of factors affecting gut microbiota, as well as the need to develop reproducible methods in studying the gut microbiota and its metabolites in order to further elucidate the role of gut microbiota in health and disease, in order to achieve optimal benefits and better clinical outcomes.
