One of the spices that are widely grown in Indonesia and used for traditional medicine is white turmeric rhizome. White turmeric rhizome has a chemical content such as curcumin which can be used as an anticancer. The function of white turmeric rhizome as an anticancer is not selective and may interfere with the normal cell function that actively performs mutation such as seminiferous tubule cells can cause antifertility effect. This study aims to find out the antifertility effects of white turmeric rhizomes in the testis. This paper uses a literature review by searching through PubMed for the last 10 year studies published between 2014-2024. Based on the results of the literature study, it can be concluded that there was an antifertility effect of white turmeric rhizome.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease that can lead to various systemic complications, including muscle strength decline due to altered metabolism and vascular supply to muscle tissue. The duration of DM is suspected to correlate with the degree of muscle strength loss. This study aimed to examine the relationship between the duration of diabetes mellitus and muscle strength in patients at Royal Prima Hospital, Jambi. An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional approach was conducted on DM patients undergoing routine check-ups at Royal Prima Hospital. The duration of DM was obtained from medical records, and muscle strength was measured using a handgrip dynamometer. Pearson correlation test was applied to analyze the relationship between the variables. The results showed a significant negative correlation between the duration of DM and muscle strength (p < 0.05), indicating that longer disease duration is associated with reduced muscle strength. The duration of diabetes mellitus is significantly associated with a decline in muscle strength. These findings highlight the importance of early intervention in DM patients to prevent further musculoskeletal deterioration.
