Abstract

This study aims to determine the comparison of the results of acid-resistant bacilli examination in sputum suspected of pulmonary tuberculosis in the two examination methods used to detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis, namely the Ziehl Neelsen method by staining sputum and the GeneXpert method by automatically using the GeneXpert tool on sputum suspected of pulmonary tuberculosis. The method in this study is quantitative with primary data type and sampling technique using purposive sampling with a total of 20 samples. The results showed that both examination methods, namely ziehl neelsen and geneXpert, obtained a significance value (sig.) (2-Tailed) of 0.317 which is more than the value of a (a = 0.05), or 0.317> 0.05 based on the results of statistical analysis, then H₂ is accepted and Ho is rejected.

Abstract

Hemostasis is the body’s mechanism to stop bleeding during an injury. The recalcification period examination is a specific hematological examination of blood clotting disorders to look for deficiency of clotting factors from the intrinsic pathway (Factors V, VIII, IX, X, XI, and XII), prothrombin and fibrinogen. According to the standard operating procedure (SOP), the examination of the recalcification period of the citrate blood centrifuge is 20 minutes at a speed of 3000 rpm. Based on the facts in the field, samples were taken simultaneously, and several different examinations were carried out so that when the centrifuge was carried out, it was not by the SOP. So that there can be an error in the production of the examined citrate plasma. The study aimed to determine the effect of centrifuge time variation on the value of the recalcification period. The research method uses a quantitative approach, experimental research, and a cross-sectional research design. The sampling technique is Accidental Sampling, using nine samples from 9 patients with 3 treatments. The results of the data normality test with the Shapiro-Wilk test from the test results carried out can be seen in 3 data groups; from the data obtained, there is one abnormal treatment. So, the Kruskal-Wallis Test was continued, and the Kruskal-Wallis test was non-parametric. The conclusion obtained from the study is that there is an influence on the recalcification period.

Abstract

Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is a tuber with many advantages compared to other tubers and is the fourth-largest source of carbohydrates in Indonesia, after rice, corn, and cassava. The high carbohydrate content of sweet potatoes makes them a good source of calories. The carbohydrate content in sweet potatoes is low on the glycemic index, meaning it does not significantly raise blood sugar levels when consumed. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of steamed purple sweet potato on blood glucose levels in students. This research is an analytical experimental study with a quantitative approach using a one-group pretest-posttest design. The population and sample in this study consist of students, with a sample size of 35 respondents. The data used are primary and secondary, sourced from blood glucose tests conducted before and after the administration of steamed purple sweet potato. The data analysis includes univariate and bivariate analyses, descriptive tests, and the Wilcoxon rank test. Based on the research results, it was shown that the p-value = <.001 (p < 0.05), therefore (H0 is rejected), which means there is an effect of consuming steamed purple sweet potatoes on blood sugar levels in students. Steamed purple sweet potatoes tend not to significantly raise blood glucose levels in students due to their low glycemic index and high fiber content, which helps slow sugar absorption. However, excessive consumption can increase blood sugar levels due to the residual sugar.
