Abstract

The case of DHF in Central Java is quite high. Nearly all blood lab results of patients with DHF are reported to show significant decreases in platelet count. Garlic extract is known to inhibit platelet aggregation induced by Adenosine diphosphate (ADP), epinephrine, collagen and arachidonate, and may inhibit prostacyclin biosynthesis. Diallyl disulphide (DADS) and diallyl trisulphide in garlic can prevent thrombus formation. The essential compounds contained in garlic are thought to increase the blood platelet count in DHF patients. The purpose of this study was to add non-pharmacological treatment reference to increase platelet count in DHF patients. This study used a true experimental design. The sample of this study were 22 DHF patients in "Nakula 2" and "Nakula 3" Disease Hospital Semarang City Hospital. The data were analyzed using T-test. The results showed that garlic extract could increase platelet count in DHF patients.

Abstract

Background : Classification method is a statistical method for grouping or classifying the systematically arranged data into a group so we can know that an individual are in a particular group. Multivariate Adaptive Regression Spline (MARS) introduced by (Friedman, 1991) is a methodology for approximating functions of many input variables given the value of the function at a collection of points in the input space. Although training times for this method tend to be much faster than feed forward neural networks using back propagation, it can still be fairly slow for large problems that require complex approximations (many units). Methods : This was a nonreactive study, which is a measurement which individuals surveyed did not realize that they are part of a study. Result : Based on the best model selection criteria MARS then the selected is with model BF 20, MI 1 and MO 0 with the form Y = 0.929944 + 0.912438 * BF1 - 0.218729 * BF2 + 0.886429 * BF3 + 0.215575 * BF4 + 0.0745423 * BF5 - 0.232014 * BF6 + 0.0472966 * BF7 - 0.0367996 * BF8 + 0.0188678 * BF9 + 0.0304537 * BF11. Accuracy of drugs user rehabilitation classification that non relapse and relapse status based on MARS model is calculated using precision classification value. The accuracy level of drugs user rehabilitation classification in East Java using MARS method produces accuracy of  95,71% and misclassification of 4,29%. The magnitude of the above classification accuracy is due to the large prediction in the nonrelapse class that as many as 269 people with nonrelapse status are appropriately predicted in the nonrelapse status class. Conclusion : There are four important variables included in the best MARS model that is age of first use of drugs, how to use drugs, marital status and jobs. The accuracy level of drugs user rehabilitation classification in East Java using MARS method  produces accuracy of 95,71% and misclassification of 4,29%.

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

All adolescents are vulnerable to HIV/AIDS, including street children. The behaviors of street children are much influenced by their peers. Peer education can enhance knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and skills and empower children to be responsible for protecting the health of themselves and their peers (Wahyuni, 2012). This study aims to determine the effects of peer health education on the HIV/AIDS Preventive Behaviors of Street Children in Bandung City in 2015. The research employed a quasi-experimental method with the pre-post-test control group design. The sample was 26 people for the treatment group and 26 people for the control group, respectively, taken with purposive sampling technique. Interventions began with peer educator training and then the peer educators provided health education on HIV/AIDS transmission prevention through small group discussions for 2 days. The data in this study were not normally distributed. The paired or dependent data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test, while the unpaired or independent data using Mann-Whitney test. The results of the research show that peer health education had effects on the knowledge and attitudes of the street children (p values 0.00 and 0.00, respectively); however, there was no effect of peer health education on the actions regarding HIV/AIDS transmission prevention among the street children (p value 0.09). Hence, it is advisable to conduct health promotion with peer health education method in an effort of increasing knowledge and attitudes regarding HIV/AIDS transmission prevention among street children that is sustainable and integrated with the existing programs at puskesmas (Community Health Center).
