Abstract

Background: Medical students face a high learning load, especially in the biomedical block, which is the basis of medical science. Learning achievement on this block becomes important as it forms the basis for the next blocks. However, evaluations at the University of Pattimura Medical Faculty showed a decline in learning effectiveness in 2022/2023. Aims: This study aims to determine the correlation of learning strategies and final scores of biomedical blocks among medical students at Pattimura University. Methods: The research method used was descriptive-analytic with a quantitative approach and cross-sectional design. The study sample comprised 199 2023 biomedical block students from a population of 209 with a 95% response rate. Data was collected using the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) and biology block 1 and 2 final grades. Data was analyzed using the Pearson correlation test at a significance threshold of α = 0.05. Results: All learning strategy components also showed significant positive correlations with biomedical block final scores (p<0.05; r=0.249 - 0.432).  Conclusion: It can be concluded that there is a positive correlation between learning strategies and the final scores of biomedical block, indicating that the better the learning strategy used by students, the higher the final scores obtained in biomedical block. Medical faculty may consider holding seminars on learning strategies for students.

Abstract

Streptococcus mutans is a component of the normal oral flora that can become a primary pathogen, leading to dental caries and tooth decay. Tooth decay and dental caries are the most common oral health issues worldwide. Treatment of dental caries and tooth decay represents a crucial effort in addressing global health concerns. One alternative treatment the community used to treat dental caries and tooth decay is thorn spinach (Amaranthus spinosus). Thorn spinach leaves contain bioactive compounds with potential antibacterial properties, including flavonoids, tannins, saponins, and alkaloids. This study aimed to evaluate the antibacterial activity of thorn spinach leaf extract at concentrations of 10%, 20%, 40%, 80%, and 100% against S. mutans. This study employed a descriptive observational design, utilizing a laboratory-based experimental approach. The leaves were extracted using the maceration technique, employing methanol and ethyl acetate as the solvents. The results showed that these extracts can inhibit the growth of S. mutans. The inhibition zones were observed for the methanol extract at concentrations of 10% (6.84 ± 5.36), 20% (12.95 ± 0.85), 40% (8.45 ± 1.00), 80% (14.66 ± 4.17), and 100% (4.74 ± 2.88). For the ethyl acetate extract, the mean inhibition zones were at concentrations of 10% (0.08 ± 0.15), 20% (8.71 ± 4.04), 40% (11.99 ± 2.44), 80% (14.79 ± 5.13), and 100% (15.00 ± 3.09). These findings indicated that, among the two types of solvents utilized, ethyl acetate was more effective than methanol, demonstrating the highest inhibitory activity with moderate to strong inhibitory categories.
