Abstract

Rabies is a zoonotic disease that can attack humans through dog bites. Various methods have been performed for prevention, including socialization activities about rabies. The aim of community service, conducted by the Clinical, Reproduction, Pathology, and Reproduction Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine, Nusa Cendana University in Kualin Village, was to increase knowledge about rabies. Socialization was a method to increase awareness about rabies in the Kualin community, which this method using the Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) approach. The ABCD concept consists of 1). Identification of community assets; 2). Partner involvement; 3). Participation of the community service team; and 4). Partnership collaboration. The poster was one of the communication, information, and education (KIE) tools for transferring knowledge. Based on the results of the pre-and post-test, it shows that this method is quite successful where public knowledge about the symptoms of animals infected with rabies (58.82% to 88.23%), symptoms of humans infected with rabies (35.29% to 76.47%), and assistance if bitten by infected dogs (76.47% to 88.23%) increased significantly. So, this method can be applied to socialize other animal diseases that cause economic losses to the Kualin community.

Abstract

Pigs are among the livestock commodities widely developed by farmers across various regions in Indonesia as sources of animal-based food. The overall health of livestock significantly influences productivity and the sustainability of farming operations. Hematological parameters serve as crucial indicators of physiological conditions and the health status of animals. Hematological examinations facilitate early detection of health issues, enabling prompt preventive or therapeutic interventions. In this case, a two-month-old female Landrace piglet exhibited signs of illness over a three-week period. The observed symptoms included diarrhea, reduced appetite and water intake, accompanied by weight loss during the illness. Hematological analysis revealed that the piglet was experiencing microcytic anemia due to iron deficiency, along with a decrease in white blood cell count attributed to intrinsic factors

Abstract

Infectious animal diseases, particularly zoonoses, pose a significant problem to the inhabitants of East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) Province because of the high animal population, especially livestock, and the close interaction between humans, animals, and the environment. The Faculty of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine, Universitas Nusa Cendana, Kupang, held the Animal Disease Investigation Training Program for Veterinary Professional Education Students (PPDH) to overcome this significant challenge. This one-day workshop had been attended by 80 participants, consisting of 26 men (32.5%) and 54 women (67.5%). This training aims to improve students' understanding and skills in zoonotic disease investigation through theoretical and practical approaches. Theoretical sessions were conducted by giving presentations to provide a foundation of knowledge. At the same time, interactive approaches in the form of group discussions and field practice were designed to improve the ability to analyze and handle cases in the field. The results of this training are expected to equip participants with the ability to investigate, identify risks, and implement disease prevention and control measures. The expected implication of this activity is to improve the ability of prospective veterinarians to face the challenges of animal diseases in NTT, especially in infectious disease detection. This training provides relevant theoretical and practical experience in protecting animal and public health in the region.

Abstract

Background: Rabies remains a fatal zoonotic threat in Indonesia, particularly in East Nusa Tenggara (NTT), including Timor Island. Despite national efforts, the disease persists with rising incidence, especially in areas with high dog populations, limited vaccination coverage, and weak cross-sectoral coordination. Objective: This review aims to assess the recent epidemiological trends of rabies in Timor Island and evaluate the effectiveness of One Health implementation in controlling the outbreak. Methods: A literature review was conducted using data from 2010–2025 from sources such as WHO, FAO, Indonesian government agencies, and peer-reviewed journals. Keywords included “rabies,” “One health,” “NTT,” “Timor,” and “epidemiology.” Data were analyzed descriptively and thematically to identify gaps, risks, and strategic responses. Results: Rabies remains endemic in Timor, with more than 50,000 dog bite cases and over 80 human deaths recorded between 2023–2024. Vaccination coverage in dogs remains as low as 17.6%, and there are only 324 vaccinators for the entire province. Social and cultural factors, such as free-roaming dogs and limited public awareness, contribute significantly to transmission. Implementation of One Health remains fragmented, with low community involvement and weak surveillance integration across sectors. Conclusion: A locally adapted One health approach is urgently needed to eliminate rabies in Timor. Strengthening dog vaccination, integrating digital case reporting, engaging traditional leaders, and enforcing village-based regulations are key to effective rabies control. Keywords: Rabies, Timor Island, One health, Dog Vaccination, Community Engagement, Indonesia

Abstract

Helminthiasis remains a significant global public health issue, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions. The extensive and repeated use of synthetic anthelmintic agents, including albendazole and mebendazole, has contributed to the emergence of drug resistance among various parasitic species. Therefore, the exploration of plant-derived compounds with potential anthelmintic activity is urgently needed. This study investigated the potential of bioactive compounds from the stem bark of Faloak (Sterculia quadrifida R. Br) as inhibitors of the Mitochondrial Rhodoquinol-Fumarate Reductase (MRFR) protein through an in silico approach. Five compounds: epicatechin, d-catechin, catechin-(4α→8)-catechin, spinasterol, and spinasterone were analyzed, with Atpeni as the control. Drug-likeness evaluation was conducted using Lipinski’s Rule of Five, while molecular docking, visualization and molecular interaction analysis was performed using PyRx, PyMOL, and Discovery Studio. Four compounds satisfied Lipinski’s criteria, indicating favorable pharmacokinetic properties. Among them, spinasterol and spinasterone demonstrated the strongest binding affinities to MRFR (–10.1 and –9.2 kcal/mol, respectively), exceeding that of the control ligand (–6.4 kcal/mol). Hydrophobic interactions involving key residues such as Leu146, Ala149, and Val153 contributed to complex stability. These results suggest that Faloak stem bark contains promising bioactive compounds that may serve as natural anti-helmintic candidates, warranting further in vitro and in vivo validation

Abstract

Rabies remains a serious zoonotic threat in Indonesia, with thousands of animal bite cases and dozens of human deaths annually. This review article aims to identify the level of community knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding rabies prevention in Indonesia and highlight the importance of a socio-cultural approach in supporting the national rabies elimination program. Data have been collected from scientific articles published between 2015 and 2025. Results indicate that the community’s basic knowledge about rabies is quite high, but there is still a gap between knowledge and actual practice, especially in rural and eastern Indonesia. The involvement of traditional leaders and a One Health approach is recommended to improve the effectiveness of education and compliance with rabies prevention.

Abstract

Program ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi efektivitas pemanfaatan antihelmintik, khususnya Nemasol (Levamisole), dalam mengatasi infestasi cacing pada ternakkambing di Desa Napan. Kambing merupakan sumber protein hewani yang penting bagi masyarakat, namun sering mengalami masalah kesehatan akibat helminthiasis, yang dapat mengganggu kemampuan pencernaan dan pertumbuhan mereka. Infestasi cacing parasit, seperti Oesophagostomum, Trichuris, dan Haemonchus, dapat berdampak signifikan pada kesehatan kambing, mengakibatkan kehilangan nutrisi dan produktivitas. Program pembagian obat cacing dilakukan secara door to door dan mendapatkan respons antusias dari warga, banyak di antaranya yang belum pernah memberikan obat cacing sebelumnya. Hasil monitoring satu minggu setelah pemberian obat menunjukkan bahwa banyak kambing mengalami peningkatan kesehatan dan nafsu makan. Beberapa kambing juga berhasil mengeluarkan cacing melalui feses. Meskipun sebagian besar responden melaporkan hasil positif, terdapatbeberapa peternak yang belum memberikan obat cacing karena kesibukan. Oleh karena itu, disarankan agar program pelayanan kesehatan hewan dilaksanakan secara rutin dengan pendekatan yang lebih sistematis, sehingga peternak lebih sadarakan pentingnya pemberian obat cacing secara berkala untuk meningkatkankesehatan dan produktivitas kambing secara berkelanjutan.

Abstract

Capra aegagrus hircus are local goats native to Indonesia with great potential to be developed to meet animal protein needs. The success of Capra aegagrus hircus rearing is closely related to husbandry management. Health management is an important factor in the livestock industry as it has a direct impact on productivity, animal welfare, and public health. To maintain animal health, it is necessary to conduct routine clinical examinations such as hematology and urinalysis. In this case, a Capra aegagrus hircus less than 1 year old, belonging to Undana's dry land, had been sick for 3 weeks. The clinical symptoms that appeared referred to the incidence of scabiosis. The examinations performed were skin scraping, hematological examination, and urinalysis. The results of the Capra aegagrus hircus examination were positive for Sarcoptes scabiei infection with hypochromic normocytic anemia and urinalysis results found struvite crystal sedimentation and suspected methemoglobin compounds in the urine
