Abstract

Abstract Active Thyroid Eye Disease (TED) is a medical condition involving swelling of the muscles, tissues, and fats around the eyes. This can lead to serious symptoms including double vision and vision loss. Tepezza (Teprotumumab) is an innovative therapy that inhibits the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) and has been approved for TED treatment. Teprotumumab works by reducing inflammation and TED symptoms. Pharmacokinetic studies indicate that this drug can be effectively administered via intravenous infusion. Various studies have shown that teprotumumab can significantly reduce proptosis, diplopia, and clinical activity of TED. This therapy has proven effective in various patient groups, including those with long-standing TED and those unresponsive to other treatments. Teprotumumab holds a promising breakthrough in TED management, improving the quality of life for individuals affected by this disease. Further studies are needed to fully understand the mechanism and potential of teprotumumab in TED treatment.

Abstract

Turmeric is a traditional drink that has been known since ancient times in Indonesia. Turmeric is an herbal ingredient that is efficacious as an antioxidant and is usually combined with tamarind. The added tamarind serves to add to the efficacy of turmeric. In this study, the role of tamarind from sour turmeric drink was replaced with lime fruit. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of lime powder on pH, antioxidant activity and total phenol of turmeric infusion. Lime turmeric infusion is made by adding water at 900C for 15 minutes. The lime turmeric infusion solution was then tested for pH, total phenol, and antioxidant levels using the DPPH method. Turmeric infusion without the addition of lime fruit powder has a pH of 4.8, total phenol content of 1.324 ± 0.013 mgGAE/g, and antioxidant of 312.55 ± 0.62 ppm. While the turmeric infusion with the addition of lime has a pH of 3.4, a total phenol content of 1.852 ± 0.004 mgGAE/g, and an antioxidant value of 31.80 ± 1.22 ppm. The addition of lime fruit to turmeric infusion resulted in a decrease in pH, an increase in total phenol levels, and antioxidant levels.
