Abstract

Background: The purpose of using a body scrub is to remove dead skin cells and dirt, and unclog pores, resulting in brighter, whiter skin. Many types of body scrubs are available today, each with a variety of benefits, from smoothing to whitening. Black glutinous rice is currently a popular choice for use in cosmetics. Black glutinous rice contains 109.52–256.61 mg of anthocyanin per 100 grams. The antioxidant activity of anthocyanins can be enhanced by the presence of other phytochemicals, such as flavanols, catechins, or vitamins, which are also commonly found in fruit.Methods: This research method is experimental in making body scrub preparations from black sticky rice as the active ingredient with varying concentrations of 5%, 10%, and 15%. Evaluation of the body scrub preparations by looking at the results of the physical quality of the preparations which include organoleptic tests, homogeneity tests, pH tests, adhesion tests, and spreadability tests. The body scrub preparations will be tested for 3 days and stored at room temperature. Data are analyzed descriptively by comparing them to the Indonesian National Standard.Results: The results of the study showed that the preparation met the physical quality requirements, the results of organoleptic quality, namely the formulation of body scrub preparations F1, F2, and F3. The results of the pH test of F1, F2, F3 were in the range of 6.03-6.48, the results of the spreadability test showed results in the range of 4.48-6.98, and the adhesion test produced a range of 0.2.30 -0.2.45.Conclusion: The conclusion of this study is that the formulations F1, F2 and F3 with the addition of olive oil have good physical quality, are stable and meet the Indonesian National Standard.

Abstract

Background: Serum is a preparation with a high concentration of active ingredients and low viscosity, which delivers a thin film of active ingredients to the skin surface. The use of Fibraurea tinctoria has been carried out since ancient times by the Dayak, Banjar, and Kutai tribes as a traditional treatment for liver disease, diabetes, and to increase the body's immunity from various causes of disease such as bacteria. Fibraurea tinctoria is believed to be able to ward off the negative effects caused by free radicals such as antioxidants.Methods: This experimental study investigated the antioxidant activity of Fibraurea tinctoria extract serum with varying concentrations of hydroxyethyl cellulose 1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0% using the DPPH methods, which is simple, easy, fast, and sensitive, and requires a small sample. This method provides information on the reactivity of the tested compound with a stable radical. Evaluations of the Fibraurea tinctoria extract serum preparation was carried out by observing the results of physical quality tests, including organoleptic tests, homogeneity tests, pH tests, adhesion tests, and spreadability tests. The serum preparation was tested for 3 days and stored at room temperature. Data were analyzed descriptively by comparing it with the Indonesian National Standard.Results: The results showed that the serum extract preparations of Fibraurea tinctoria F1st, F2nd, and F3rd showed varying IC₅₀ values, where lower values ​​indicated stronger antioxidant potential. Formulation F3rd showed the lowest IC₅₀ value (3.11 ppm), F2nd (3.74 ppm) and F1st (4.67 ppm), all of which were stronger than the base (5.11 ppm).Conclusion: In this research, formulations F1st, F2nd, and F3rd had the highest antioxidant activity, with F3rd at a concentration of 2.0%. The identified strong antioxidant activity is the main basis for the potential of Fibraurea tinctoria extract serum as an active antioxidant ingredient.

Abstract

Background: Clinical success in HIV/AIDS patients undergoing antiretroviral therapy (ART) is influenced by various factors, including treatment adherence, regular follow-up visits, and monitoring of clinical outcomes such as weight gain and the absence of opportunistic infections (OIs). Opportunistic infections are considered a key indicator of ART failure and are strongly associated with advanced disease stages and low CD4 counts. This study aimed to analyze the demographic and clinical characteristics of HIV/AIDS patients and evaluate the relationship between body weight and the incidence of opportunistic infections in patients receiving ART.Methods: This cross-sectional study used retrospective data from 95 HIV/AIDS patients collected through consecutive sampling. Data included demographic variables (gender, age, marital status, education, occupation), clinical stage (WHO), CD4 count, body weight, ART regimen, and opportunistic infections. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test, with a p-value ≤0.05 considered statistically significant.Results: Most patients were male (52.6%) and in the productive age range of 25–46 years (74.7%). The majority were married (54.7%), had low educational attainment, and were employed (76.8%). Clinically, 88.4% were at WHO stage III, and 80% had CD4 counts <350 cells/mm³. Low body weight (<60 kg) was found in 93.7% of patients. Opportunistic infections occurred in 26.3% of patients. A statistically significant association was found between body weight and opportunistic infections (p = 0.041). However, the OR of 1.086 (95% CI: 0.479–2.464) indicated no clinically significant difference in the risk of opportunistic infections between patients with body weight <60 kg and those >60 kg.Conclusion: Although low body weight was statistically associated with opportunistic infections, it did not present a significantly increased clinical risk. Nonetheless, opportunistic infections among patients highlights the importance of early intervention, nutritional support, and timely initiation of ART to improve treatment outcomes in HIV/AIDS management.
