Abstract

Soil-transmitted helminths (STH) remain highly prevalent in Indonesia and continue to pose a major public health concern, particularly in areas with limited diagnostic capacity. Reliable and cost-effective detection methods are crucial for accurate surveillance and the success of national deworming programs. This study aims to compare three commonly used microscopic techniques (wet mount, Kato-Katz, and sedimentation) to evaluate their diagnostic performance and suitability for use in resource-limited settings through a literature review. Wet mount is rapid and inexpensive but limited by low sensitivity in light infections. The Kato-Katz method, endorsed by the World Health Organization as the gold standard, offers higher sensitivity and enables egg quantification, though its performance decreases when only a single sample is examined. Sedimentation is useful for detecting heavier trematode eggs and is relatively simple to perform, but sensitivity remains a challenge. Overall, while all three techniques are feasible in resource-limited settings, their effectiveness depends on infection intensity, sample handling, and examiner skill. Training and quality control are therefore essential to improve diagnostic accuracy and support ongoing STH control programs in Indonesia.

Abstract

Infeksi cacing masih menjadi masalah kesehatan global yang berdampak signifikan. Albendazol adalah salah satu obat antelmintik yang sering digunakan dalam pengobatan karena memiliki efektivitas cukup baik. Namun dapat juga menimbulkan potensi perkembangan resistensi. Kajian pustaka ini bertujuan untuk memberikan tinjauan mengenai penggunaan albendazol sebagai antelmintik serta mengidentifikasi kejadian resistensi dalam pengobatan. Kajian pustaka dikumpulkan dalam rentang tahun 2015-2024 diperoleh dari sumber database ilmiah (Google Scholar, PubMed dan Science Direct). Dari penelusuran diperoleh sebanyak 25 artikel yang sesuai dengan topik penelitian. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa beberapa kasus penggunaan albendazol masih efektif dalam melawan infeksi cacing sesuai dengan dosis dan jenis cacing yang menginfeksi. Beberapa kasus lain juga ditemukan cacing resisten terhadap albendazol. Sehingga pemantauan serta studi lebih lanjut mengenai penggunaan antelmintik penting dilakukan sebagai upaya menghambat berkembangnya resistensi obat.

Abstract

Adolescence is a time of curiosity about many things, including sexual behaviors that make it possible to become infected with sexually transmitted diseases. Education is needed to prevent transmission by providing material on the infections of reproductive organs. Based on this, this service aims to increase students' knowledge at the Pondok Pesantren Darul Hukumaini about the types of sexually transmitted infections and how to prevent them. The methods used for assessment were pre-test and post-test. Delivery of material was carried out using lecture and presentation methods to students. The participants were 32 aged 16-17 years and female. The assessment results showed an increase in students' scores from an average of 5.8 in the pre-test to 9.6 in the post-test. The lowest score obtained in the pre-test was 0 to 6.4 after the post-test or delivery of educational material. This increase in student's knowledge must be accompanied by habits of clean and healthy living behavior such as avoiding drugs and having free sex by the students themselves.

Abstract

Bacillus megaterium is a bacteria that causes human infections, causing keratitis, skin infections, brain abscesses and tissue infections. Treatment often uses chemical antibiotics. However, long-term antibiotics can cause new health problems such as resistance. Therefore, antibacterial ingredients are needed that can not only inhibit the growth of bacteria but also do not have a negative impact on health such as honey. Honey is thick, it can cure various diseases such as gastrointestinal, stomach, skin diseases, acute respiratory infections and coughs. This research aims to determine the ability of Sumbawa white honey as an antibacterial against B. megaterium. The method used in this research is paper disc diffusion. There were five treatments used in this study, between 100%, 75% and 25% honey concentrations, DMSO negative control and chloramphenicol positive control with five replications each. The results of the antibacterial activity test showed that the 100% concentration had an inhibitory zone diameter of 2.59 mm, then the 75% concentration was 1.46 while the 25% concentration was 0 mm. When compared with positive control, white honey was lower antibacterial. If it is in the white honey category, the inhibition zone category is included in the lower category.

Abstract

Enterobiasis, also known as pinworm infection, is a parasitic infestation that predominantly affects children and is caused by the Enterobius vermicularis parasite. Worm infections can significantly impact an individual's productivity and immune system. This study aims to document the occurrence of enterobiasis among children aged 6 to 9 years in the Kebon Kongok landfill area of West Lombok Regency. Data collection involved the administration of the cellophane tape method and a questionnaire filled by the parents or guardians of the participating children. Among the 188 participants, 36 children (19.15%) were identified as having enterobiasis. Notably, boys exhibited a higher prevalence than girls, and the most common age for enterobiasis was 7 years. Statistical analysis revealed that the child's age, their habit of playing in the dirt, and the parents' or guardians' age are pivotal factors influencing the incidence of enterobiasis in the Kebon Kongok landfill area of West Lombok Regency.
