Abstract

Background: Negative stigma has the possibility of provoking adverse behaviour. This indicates that people with pulmonary tuberculosis have a diminished likelihood of recovery. Objective: To assess the probability of stigmatisation associated with pulmonary tuberculosis in Bengkulu City. Methods: This research utilises a case-control study design, with simple random sampling as the sampling approach. The ratio of respondents to groups is 1:1. This research was conducted in Bengkulu City, employing a questionnaire as the research instrument. This study utilised two tests: a univariate test and a bivariate test, employing the Stata tool for data analysis. Results: The test outcomes indicated that the majority of respondents in the case group exhibited negative societal stigma towards tuberculosis, inadequate family support, deficient health literacy, low quality of life, and insufficient information. Conversely, most respondents in the control group demonstrated a favourable social stigma towards tuberculosis, possessed robust family support, exhibited great health literacy, maintained a superior quality of life, and displayed substantial knowledge. Conclusion: Mitigating stigma is essential for enhancing early detection and treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis, hence facilitating more successful disease management.

Abstract

Background Vaccination is a Crucial public health strategy for reducing the transmission of viral infections and protecting populations from severe illness. COVID-19 vaccines have played a significant role in decreasing the incidence and mortality rates linked to the virus. However, immune responses to vaccination may differ among individuals, especially those with comorbidies that could alter immune function. This study aimed to compare antibody responses in adults with and without comorbidities, 18 months after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. Methods This was a cohort study with two sampling time points: before vaccination and 18 months after vaccination. The study was conducted in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Data were collected through self-administered questionnaires and venous blood sampling. Antibody titers were measured to evaluate the humoral immune response in participants with and without comorbidities. Results Before vaccination, the highest proportion of positive antibody titers was found among females (40.2%), individuals aged 18–44 years (44.7%), those with a senior high school education (48.1%), and individuals with normal body weight (44.3%). A Comparison of antibody levels at baseline and 18 months after vaccination between groups with and without comorbidities showed no statistically significant difference, with a p-value of 0.992.   Conclusions Although no significant difference was found in antibody responses between individuals with and without comorbidities, comorbid conditions may still influence immune response depending on their type and severity. These findings suggest the need for further research to examine the specific effects of various comorbidities on long-term vaccine-induced immunity.

Abstract

The coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) has become a challenge for the media world. Even though they have been declared cured, some Covid-19 survivors still have health complaints. Abnormal symptoms, signs, or clinical parameters that persist two weeks or more after the onset of COVID-19 and do not return to their initial healthy state are potentially considered long-term effects of the disease. Although such changes are primarily reported in people with severe and critical illness, lasting effects also occur in individuals with mild infections that do not require hospitalization. This study aims to explore the role of antioxidants on the pathogenesis of Covid19 and its relationship with SOD1, 2 and 3 genomic variations. Getting alternative biomarkers for long covid19 detection. Research Method: The research sample is blood and questionnaires that will be taken from respondents affected by Covid19 a maximum of 6 months before data collection is held. Furthermore, DNA isolation, DNA amplification, cutting with restriction enzymes, and DNA band documentation with gel electrophoresis will be carried out. Symptoms related to systemic are the most common symptoms found in respondents with Long Covid19. A total of 8 respondents had systemic related symptoms, namely weakness, lethargy and sweating, while skin-related complaints were found in three respondents and one respondent had lung-related complaints. The average SOD activity value of respondents was 2.19 U/ml. In this study, more symptoms of long COVID-19 were found associated with systemic and cardiovascular symptoms. The complaints were not differentiated by the sex of the respondents. The output draft will be processed immediately after getting other results.
