Abstract

Pregnancy exercise offers numerous benefits for both mother and child. However, many pregnant women do not participate in this activity. This study aims to identify factors influencing pregnant women's participation in pregnancy exercise at Darussalam Health Center, Medan City. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 60 pregnant women visiting the Darussalam Health Center. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using Chi-square tests and logistic regression. The findings indicate that most pregnant women did not participate in pregnancy exercise. Knowledge of the benefits of prenatal exercise, positive attitudes toward exercise, and partner support were significant predictors of participation. Multivariate analysis confirmed that these three factors were independently associated with exercise participation. This study highlights the importance of knowledge, attitudes, and partner support in promoting prenatal exercise among pregnant women. Health education programs focusing on these factors could encourage more women to engage in regular physical activity during pregnancy.

Abstract

Diabetic retinopathy is damage to retinal capillaries in diabetics that can cause visual impairment, ranging from mild to permanent blindness. This study aims to analyze the effect of Curcuma zedoaria (temu putih) extract on placental growth factor (PLGF) levels in white Wistar rats with diabetic retinopathy. The research design used post-test only control group, involving six groups of wistar rats with five heads each. Data were analyzed using Oneway ANOVA and t-test. The results showed that the administration of Curcuma zedoaria extract at a dose of 500 mg/kgBB had the greatest effect on reducing PLGF in diabetic retinopathy rats. For reducing blood sugar levels (KGD), a dose of 7500 mg/kgBB proved to be the most effective. However, no significant relationship was found between PLGF levels and retinal histopathology results. Most of the rats had a retinal score of 0, which means no inflammatory cells were found in the retinal layer (0 cells/visual field). There were rats with a retinal score of 1, namely rats that received doses of 250 mg/kgBB and 500 mg/kgBB. In this score, inflammation was found in the outer plexiform layer (OPL). In addition, there were rats with a retinal score of 2 at a dose of 250 mg/kgBB, which also showed the distribution of inflammation in the OPL layer. In this study, Curcuma zedoaria extract can reduce PLGF and KGD in Wistar rats with diabetic retinopathy, although its effect on improving retinal histopathology is still limited.

Abstract

Ginger (Zingiber officinale) and celery (Apium graveolens L.) are well-known for their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, and they have been traditionally used to treat hair loss. However, scientific evidence regarding their effectiveness in stimulating hair growth is still limited. This study aims to evaluate the effects of ginger and celery extracts on hair growth in Wistar rats, focusing on growth onset, duration, regrowth, and potential inflammatory effects on the skin. The research method used a total of 25 Wistar rats randomly divided into five groups: control (paraffin), standard (minoxidil), ginger extract, celery extract, and a combination of ginger and celery extracts. Each extract was administered at a dosage of 20 mg/ml. The study monitored the onset, duration, and regrowth scores of hair growth. Histological examinations were performed to assess hair follicle density and inflammation levels. Phytochemical analyses of the extracts were conducted to identify the presence of flavonoids, alkaloids, glycosides, saponins, tannins, and steroids/triterpenoids. The research results show that phytochemical analysis revealed that ginger contains flavonoids, alkaloids, glycosides, and steroids/triterpenoids, while celery contains flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, tannins, glycosides, and steroids/triterpenoids. The analysis showed no significant differences in hair growth onset, duration, or regrowth scores between the treatment groups and the control group. Histological analysis indicated that the average number of hairs ranged from 4 to 10 per field of view, with the highest count observed in the ginger extract group and the lowest in the celery extract group. Most slides showed light or no inflammation. The conclusion that the tested dosage, ginger and celery extracts did not have a significant impact on the onset, duration, or regrowth of hair in Wistar rats and showed minimal inflammatory responses. Although these extracts contain phytochemicals with known biological activity, they did not demonstrate significant effects on hair growth at the given dosage. Further research with different dosages and compounds is necessary to explore their full potential for hair growth and skin health.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pemberian ekstrak buah pala (Myristica fragrans Houtt.) terhadap fungsi ginjal dan gambaran histopatologi ginjal pada tikus putih galur Wistar jantan yang mengalami diabetes melitus. Diabetes melitus diinduksi menggunakan alloksan, dan tikus dibagi menjadi beberapa kelompok: kelompok kontrol, kelompok diabetes, dan kelompok perlakuan yang diberi ekstrak buah pala dengan dosis berbeda. Fungsi ginjal dievaluasi melalui parameter seperti kadar kreatinin dan urea darah, sementara gambaran histopatologi ginjal dianalisis menggunakan pewarnaan hematoksilin dan eosin. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemberian ekstrak buah pala dapat menurunkan kadar kreatinin dan urea darah serta memperbaiki gambaran histopatologi ginjal yang rusak akibat diabetes melitus. Penurunan kerusakan ginjal ini menunjukkan bahwa ekstrak buah pala memiliki potensi sebagai terapi untuk memperbaiki fungsi ginjal pada penderita diabetes melitus.

Abstract

The lack of socialization carried out by Family Planning Field Extension Workers (FPFE) leads to fear among the community, especially among Couples of Reproductive Age (CRA), in choosing Long-Term Contraception Methods (LTCM). Couples of reproductive age require health education or counseling to help them determine which contraceptive method to use. This study aims to determine the role of PLKB for couples of reproductive age (PUS) in choosing LTCM at Sekerak District Health Center, Aceh Tamiang Regency in 2022. This study is a quantitative research with a cross-sectional design. The population in this study was all couples of reproductive age in Sekerak Kanan Village, Sekerak District, Aceh Tamiang Regency, and the research sample consisted of 126 people. Data collection was done directly by distributing questionnaires to couples of reproductive age. Then, it was followed by the process of data analysis using the Chi-Square test and logistic regression. The results showed that there is a relationship between counseling quality in choosing LTCM with a value of (p=0.001; PR=3.4; 95% CI 2.201-5.294), there is a relationship between PLKB barriers in choosing LTCM with a value of (p=0.001; PR=2.2; 95% CI 1.724-3.007), and there is a relationship between FPFE capacity in choosing long-term contraceptive methods with a value of (p=0.001; PR=2.4; 95% CI 1.704-3.472). Furthermore, the dominant factor related to the selection of LTCM is counseling quality with a value of (p=0.000; PR=10.766 95% CI 3.491-33.204). Couples of reproductive age are expected to increase their knowledge, especially about long-term contraceptive methods, and it is hoped that men will not be ashamed to participate in family planning programs.
