Abstract

Background: Cognitive function disorders often occur in individuals with epilepsy. The decline in cognitive function in epilepsy patients can be caused by various factors, including age of onset, seizure frequency, and duration of the disease. This study aims to investigate the relationship between the age of onset, seizure frequency, and disease duration on the cognitive function of epilepsy patients at the Neurology Outpatient Clinic of Haji Adam Malik General Hospital in Medan Method: The chosen research design is a cross-sectional analytic. The study was conducted at the neurology outpatient clinic of the Adam Malik Central General Hospital in Medan. The samples used were patients diagnosed with epilepsy at the Neurology Outpatient Clinic of Adam Malik Central General Hospital in Medan, aged 18-65 years, and without any other medical conditions aside from epilepsy. The study involved 35 subjects.Result: The majority of the research subjects are aged 18-45 years (94.3%), with more males (51.4%) than females. Most have a high school education background (48.6%), and the largest group is unemployed (62.9%). The most common age group at onset is 0-18 years (48.6%). The majority of subjects experience seizures in the rare category (less than 1 time per month) at 62.9%. Most subjects have a disease duration of less than 15 years (65.7%). The majority of epilepsy patients at the Neurology Outpatient Clinic of H. Adam Malik Hospital (52.1%) have abnormal cognitive function based on the MoCA-Ina test results. Statistical analysis was conducted using the chi-square test and multivariate analysis with logistic regression. The chi-square test results revealed a significant relationship between age of onset and cognitive function (p=0,008), a significant relationship between seizure frequency and cognitive function (p=0,004), and a significant relationship between disease duration and cognitive function (p=0,012). The multivariate analysis results indicated that disease duration had a significant relationship with cognitive function, with an odds ratio of 0,081 (p-value=0,037, 95% CI 0,008-0,862).Conclusion: There is a relationship between age of onset, seizure frequency, and disease duration with the cognitive function of epilepsy patients at the Neurology Outpatient Clinic of Haji Adam Malik General Hospital in Medan

Abstract

Background: Cancer is a condition of rapid and uncontrolled cell growth. Anemia in cancer patients is a condition that will worsen the quality of life and prognosis of cancer patients. The study aimed to determine the incidence, severity of anemia, and characteristics of cancer patients who experience anemia at the Adam Malik Hospital for the period June 2022 to May 2023. Methods: This study is a descriptive study with a retrospective cross-sectional approach. Using 97 samples of medical record data of cancer patients with the subject of cancer patients. The analysis used was univariate. Results: This study involved 97 cancer patients, there were 67 (69.1%) patients who experienced anemia, including 14 (20.9%) people with a mild degree of anemia, 33 (49.3%) people moderate degree, and 20 (29.9%) people severe degree. Of the 67 cancer patients who experienced anemia, the dominant anemia occurred in female patients as many as 38 (56.7%) people with an adult age group (18-44 years) as many as 31(46.3%) people diagnosed as hematological malignancies as many as 34 (50.7%) people with nutritional status in the normal weight group as many as 27 (40.3%) people, and as many as 46 (68.7%) people cancer patients who experienced anemia did not have comorbidities. Conclusion: Most cancer patients experienced anemia of moderate degree (69.1%), female gender, with adult age group (18-44 years), diagnosed as hematological malignancies, with nutritional status normal weight group, and had no comorbidities

Abstract

This community engagement program aims to implement Budikdamber (Budidaya Ikan dalam Ember), or fish cultivation in buckets, as a tool for applied science learning and nutrition literacy at Ma’had Tahfidz Yatim Duafa Kitabina, North Sumatra. The problems of the Sayum Sabah Islamic boarding school include limited knowledge, inadequate facilities and infrastructure, and ineffective land management. The program focuses on improving students’ knowledge, attitudes, and skills related to simple aquaponics while strengthening food security within the boarding school. A participatory approach was applied through needs assessment, theoretical training, hands-on unit assembly, field mentoring, and pre-test and post-test evaluation. Results indicated significant improvement in knowledge and skills, reflected in a more uniform level of understanding among participants post-intervention (the pre-test was 53.63 (N = 44; SD = 12.11), while the average post-test score increased to 66.36 (N = 44; SD = 10.06)). Field observations highlight strong enthusiasm, the ability to assemble functional units, and the emergence of peer teaching among students. Beyond serving as a practical science medium, Budikdamber drives community empowerment by strengthening food security, enhancing nutrition literacy, and fostering eco-friendly entrepreneurship. Dissemination via local media further amplified the social impact and supported the potential replication of the program in similar institutions. In conclusion, integrating appropriate technology such as Budikdamber into boarding school settings improves students’ capacity, fosters nutrition awareness, and contributes to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) numbers 2, 3, and 12.
