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 =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

This type of research is the observational research by using a prospective cohort study design. Total sample that would be analysis in this study was 88 samples. The data were processed using univariate, bivariate and multivariate analysis. The results showed that ASA score exponent (B) (estimate odds ratio) ASA score 23 and wound classification 7.667 collectively to wound condition of patient's operation with cesarean section with p-value = 0.005. ASA scores have the greatest risk of incidence of cesarean section wound infection. Keywords: Surveillance, Cesarean section, Infection, Surgical site, Indonesia
