Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) can manifest as pulmonary or extrapulmonary TB, with the latter involving various organs and tissues outside the lungs. Knee TB, a form of skeletal TB, is a relatively rare condition, accounting for only 0.09% to 0.15% of all TB cases. Here, we present a case series diagnosed and managed at Undata Hospital, Central Sulawesi, highlighting the clinical presentation, diagnostic challenges, and treatment strategies for this uncommon condition. We present two case series involving male patients with knee pain, swelling, and limited range of motion, accompanied by systemic symptoms such as fever and weight loss. Both patients had previous pulmonary TB diagnoses and underwent radiological examinations, including chest X-ray and knee radiography. Microbiological analysis was performed using GeneXpert MTB/Rif, and histopathological examination confirmed TB in both cases. The first patient, diagnosed with clinical pulmonary TB and knee TB, responded well to anti-tubercular therapy (ATT) and surgery. The second patient, with ongoing pulmonary TB, was diagnosed with knee TB after surgery and biopsy. Both patients showed significant improvement in symptoms after treatment and surgery, with no side effects from ATT. Knee TB should be considered in patients from TB-endemic areas presenting with unexplained knee symptoms, particularly when there is a history of pulmonary TB. Early diagnosis through biopsy and appropriate imaging is essential for effective management. Comprehensive treatment, including ATT and surgical debridement, followed by rehabilitation, leads to favorable outcomes in most cases.

Abstract

Excessive use of inorganic fertilizers can cause soil degradation and environmental pollution. To address this issue, composting organic materials such as manure and wood chips can be an environmentally friendly alternative solution. This program aimed to demonstrate the composting process for a mixture of manure and wood chips through activities conducted by students of the Agroecotechnology Study Program at Universitas Sulawesi Barat, class of 2022, in the greenhouse. Compost was made by mixing 20 buckets of wood powder with 20 kg of manure, adding 35 ml of EM4 solution dissolved in 1 liter of water, and fermenting for 2-3 weeks. The results of the practical activity showed that the compost produced was dark brown, had an earthy smell, and had a crumbly texture, indicating that the decomposition process was successful. This compost has the potential to increase soil fertility, improve soil structure, and support sustainable agriculture in an efficient and environmentally friendly manner.

Abstract

Penyakit paru seperti penyakit paru obstruktif kronis (PPOK), tuberkulosis, dan gangguan restriktif masih menjadi masalah kesehatan masyarakat yang signifikan di Indonesia. Ibu rumah tangga merupakan kelompok yang rentan karena sering terpapar polusi udara dalam ruangan, termasuk asap dapur, asap rokok, dan pembakaran bahan bakar biomassa yang digunakan untuk memasak. Paparan jangka panjang terhadap faktor tersebut dapat menyebabkan penurunan fungsi paru yang sering kali tidak disadari karena gejalanya muncul secara perlahan. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kesadaran, pengetahuan, serta kemampuan deteksi dini gangguan fungsi paru melalui edukasi kesehatan dan pemeriksaan spirometri pada ibu rumah tangga di Kelurahan Pondok Petir, Kota Depok. Metode pelaksanaan menggunakan pendekatan Plan–Do–Check–Act (PDCA) yang meliputi tahap perencanaan kegiatan, penyuluhan kesehatan tentang penyakit paru, demonstrasi penggunaan alat spirometri, pemeriksaan fungsi paru secara individual, serta evaluasi dan tindak lanjut hasil. Sebanyak sepuluh peserta mengikuti pemeriksaan spirometri, dengan hasil 50% mengalami restriksi ringan, 10% restriksi sedang, dan 40% tidak menunjukkan gangguan ventilasi paru. Hasil ini menunjukkan adanya indikasi awal penurunan fungsi paru yang memerlukan perhatian lebih lanjut. Kegiatan ini berhasil meningkatkan pengetahuan peserta mengenai faktor risiko penyakit paru, pentingnya ventilasi rumah, serta kebiasaan hidup sehat. Program ini mendukung penguatan upaya promotif dan preventif kesehatan pernapasan sesuai dengan kebijakan nasional Program Indonesia Sehat dengan Pendekatan Keluarga (PIS-PK).
