Abstract

Insulin resistance is an early sign of diabetes type 2 that occurs in situations where target organ sensitivity decreases against insulin. Excess free radicals can be mutually insulin resistance. The purpose of this study was to determine how the effects of insulin can be a determining factor. This study used case control design conducted on 22 outpatients at Clinic University of Muhammadiyah Surabaya during June until July 2017. Data were collected using questionnaires, nutritional status, fasting blood glucose, fasting insulin, and MDA levels. Insulin resistance status using normal HOMA IR method of <2,77. Logistic Regression was used to determine the effect of free radical on the occurrence of insulin resistance. The results showed free radical against insulin resistance at a=0,05 with p=0,018. That result means boosting MDA levels also increases the risk of insulin resistance. In addition, the consumption of dietary sources of fat and excessive use of food additives, low fruit intake, BMI values are also factors affecting insulin resistance with p=0,027; p=0,036; and p=0,027. Given the elevated levels of MDA-free radicals can increase the risk of insulin resistance. Applying a healthy lifestyle by consuming fiber-rich foods can prevent the formation of excessive free radicals. Keywords: Insulin Resistance, Free Radical, HOMA IR

Abstract

Coffee drinking is a habit that still doubtful for it’s benefits. Many active ingredients in robusta coffee (Coffea canephora) are very useful for health, especially the antioxidant content that can ward off free radicals that absorbed in the body. Free radicals can be caused by psychological stress exposure. Excessive amounts of radicals in the body cause oxidative stress. This study aimed to see the robusta coffee effect on decreasing levels of Malondialdehyde (MDA) with “randomized post test only control group” design with 25 samples of white male rat strain wistar (Rattus norvegicus). Samples were divided into 5 groups: control groups and randomized treatment groups. Treatment given in psychological stress and giving robusta coffee drink with single dose. This study used “one way anova” test and followed by “pos hoc tukey HSD” test for statistics. Robusta coffee had an effect in MDA levels changing. There was a MDA levels decreasing in 1 hour after robusta coffee drinking in experimental rats with oxidative stress conditions that were exposed by psychological stress.

Abstract

Midwife’s performance at Primary Health Care (PHC) still not optimal, slacken the effort of reducing maternal death. Unavailability of doctor at  PHC placed greater responsibility on midwife, thus improving midwife’s performance is crucial. Midwife’s performance influenced by ability, motivation, and supervision. Cross- ethnic supervision combined with line manager supervision, fit in the development of dialogue focused supervisory relationship (DFSR) in midwifery supervision. This study aimed to analyse the effect of DFSR on midwife’s performance, and the relationship between cross-ethnic supervision  and DFSR. This research used crosssectional design. Using random sampling techniques, 113 pairs of midwives -supervisors working in PHC at Kupang city and Kupang district were obtained. Data analysed using regression analysis. The findings were: (1) quality of DFSR affecting  midwife’s performance improvement, with quality of dialogue give strongest influence, (2) good quality supervisory relationship decrease midwife’s performance, and (3) cross-ethnic supervision didn’t have significant relationship towards DFSR. The development of DFSR as a new construct and evident of the relationship between DFSR and midwife’s performance is a novel in this study. To enrich this finding, future research should use longitudinal design and with different type of respondent. Study in exploring factor in cross-ethnic supervision that may influence DFSR also suggested.

Abstract

Dysmenorrhea refers to painful menstruation which appears in the luteal phase that could affect productivity and quality of life, while dysmenorrhea in adolescents can reduce the concentration of learning. Muscle relaxation therapy is a non-pharmacological treatment that is effective, efficient and simple therapy as an treatment of dysmenorrhea. This study was to determine whether the muscle relaxation therapy reduces for dysmenorrhea in adolescents. This study was true experimental with randomized pretest posttest design. Dysmenorrhea screening using ACOG diagnostic criteria, in 207 female students to determine the prevalence of dysmenorrhea and it’s symptoms was recorded in the diary records symptom. Students with dysmenorrhea were divided into a control group (n=30) and an experimental group (n=30). Students in control group received deep breathing relaxation therapy and those in experimental group received muscle relaxation therapy. The intensity of pain, blood pressure, respiration and pulse were measured 15 minutes before being given treatment and would be measured again at 15 minutes after giving the treatment during menstrual pain. Instruments used Numerical Rating Scale. Result: Pain intensity before and after intervention in intervention and control group were 5,53 ± 1,167 vs 4,17 ± 1,053, P = 0,000 and 4,47 ± 1,358 vs 3,87 ± 1,96, P = 0,000 . Test paired t-test and Wilcoxon test to see changes in systolic, diastolic and respiratory pressure changes of pulse before and after relaxation. Comparison of the effects of muscle relaxation and deep breathing relaxation with P <0.05 (0.002) with Mann Whitney test.
