Abstract

Background: Due to their golden age of physical development and intelligence, infants nutritional status requires special consideration. Preliminary investigations at the Nambo Primary Health Care found that 19 toddlers suffered from wasted, with four being severely wasted. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of the toddler's immunization status and the mother's level of nutritional education on the nutritional status of infants in the Nambo Primary Health Care working area. Methods: This study utilized a case-control design in the Nambo Primary Health Care working area from November to December 2022. This investigation included 69 toddlers as participants (23 toddlers in the case group and 46 toddlers in the control group). We gathered data by administering a questionnaire and measuring the toddler's weight and height, which we analyzed using the chi-square test and Fisher’s Exact test. Results: Results indicated that immunization status significantly influences the nutritional status of infants (OR = 4.594; p = 0.034; 95% CI: 1.183–17.840). The mother's nutritional knowledge has a significant effect on the nutritional status of toddlers (OR = 10.587; p = 0.000; 95% CI = 3.118–37.818). Conclusions: The nutritional status of toddlers in the Nambo Primary Health Care Working Area, Kendari City, is influenced by the nutritional knowledge and vaccination status of their mothers.

Abstract

Background: Acceptance or refusal of vaccinations can be influenced by hesitancy about the COVID-19 vaccine. Hesitancy is determined by knowledge, attitudes, practices, and public concerns about the safety, efficacy, risks, and benefits associated with the COVID-19 vaccination program. Purpose: To determine the association between knowledge and hesitancy about the COVID-19 vaccine in pregnant women in the Ranomeeto Health Center Working Area. Methods: This is an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional approach. This study was conducted at the Ranomeeto Health Center, Konawe Selatan District. The number of samples is 77 people, collected by purposive sampling technique. Knowledge was measured using a knowledge questionnaire about the covid-19 vaccine. Hesitation was measured using a questionnaire about the COVID-19 vaccine. Data were collected and analyzed using the Chi-Square statistical test with a significance value of p<0.05. Results: The results showed that most pregnant women had good knowledge about the COVID-19 vaccine (42.9%) and had no hecitation about the COVID-19 vaccine (61.0%). Statistical tests obtained a significant p-value between knowledge and hesitancy about the COVID-19 vaccine (p=0.010). Conclusion: There is a significant correlation between knowledge and hesitancy about the COVID-19 vaccine in pregnant women in the Working Area of the Ranomeeto Health Center.

Abstract

Background. Postoperative nausea and vomiting are one of the complications experienced by patients with anesthesia and surgery. There are many factors that influence this occurrence, including age and BMI, where young age and obese BMI tend to experience postoperative nausea and vomiting. This is based on the fact that older age is easier to control nausea and vomiting than young people and obese BMI has more fat tissue to store anesthetic drugs so that the side effects of drugs can last longer. Method. This study used an observational analytic method with a cross sectional approach carried out at Aliyah Hospital 2. The number of samples in this study were 38 people who were taken using total sampling technique. Data collection was obtained from filling in the observation sheet and then the data was analyzed using the Fisher's Exact Test statistical test. The dependent variable in this study was postoperative nausea and vomiting and the independent variables were age and BMI. Results. The results of this study found that age did not have a significant relationship with the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting at Aliyah Hospital 2 (p = 0.298) and BMI had a significant relationship with the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting at Aliyah Hospital 2 (p = 0.019). Conclusion. From this study it can be concluded that the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting after spinal anesthesia is higher in patients with older age and excessive BMI.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Background: Inflammation is the body's reaction to injury or tissue damage. As an NSAID, diclofenac sodium is frequently used. But since this medication has adverse effects, a substitute is required. Flavonoids found in K. alvarezii may have therapeutic uses and anti-inflammatory potential. Purpose: The goal of this research was to investigate the anti-inflammatory effect of K. alvarezii utilizing the protein denaturation inhibition method. Method: The IC50 was utilized to test anti-inflammatory effect through protein denaturation inhibition. Diclofenac sodium served as a positive control. The data were then analyzed with an independent t-test. Result: The anti-inflammatory activity test produced an IC50 of 197.94 ppm for extract K. alvarezii and 35.7 ppm for diclofenac sodium. The statistical test found a significant difference between seaweed ethanol extract K. alvarezii and sodium diclofenac (p = 0.000). Keywords: anti-inflammatory; Kappaphycus alvarezii; protein denaturation inhibition.
