Abstract

Background: One of the occupational diseases is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS). CTS is a condition in which the hand feels tingling, numb, painful, or weak. This syndrome occurs when the nerves inside the wrist are squeezed or compressed. Jobs that are at risk of CTS involve doing repetitive movements, working with awkward postures, working in a motorized vehicle production or working using computers. Purpose: To determine the factors associated with the incidence of CTS in workers that used computers in the finance division of Property Industry. Method: This research used quantitative research with cross-sectional design with a total sample of 34 respondents who worked in the finance division. The data were obtained through secondary data and questionnaires with direct observation and variables including gender, age, length of service, working period and awkward hand postures. The analysis carried out includes univariate and bivariate analyses using the chi-square test. Result: The univariate analysis of the respondents indicated there were 22 people (68.8%) experiencing CTS. Further, there were 22 people (75.5%) at risk from gender proportion, 22 people (68.8%) from age, 26 people (81.3%) from length of service, 22 people (68.8%) from long working period, and 24 people (74.0%) from awkward postures. Conclusion: There is a relationship between length of service, posture and the incidence of CTS on the workers using computers from the financial division of Property Industry.

Abstract

Background: HIV/AIDS cases continue to increase globally. A person with a weak immune system, especially people with HIV/AIDS, is very susceptible to various diseases, such as tuberculosis. Tuberculosis infection can be associated with HIV-positive individuals, which is caused by damage to cellular immunity due to the reduced number and function of CD4 cells. Purpose: To determine the profile of HIV/AIDS patients with TB coinfection based on CD4 values in RSUD Ibnu Sina Gresik. Method: The method used is observational analytical cross-sectional. Patients with TB and HIV coinfection were recapitulated from the Case Report Form (CRF). The results are presented in a frequency distribution table. Result: The study obtained information about 36 people with TB co-infected HIV/AIDS cases. Patients with CD4 values <200 cells/mm3 were 35 people (97.22%), and most of them were in the age group of 20-60 years were 35 people (97.22%). Male patients (83.33 %) dominate compared to female patients (16.67%). The duration of TB coinfection in HIV/AIDS patients occurs in less than one month, which is 21 people (58.33%). Conclusion: The profile of HIV/AIDS patients co-infected with TB is based on CD4 values that are more dominant in men, with the highest age being 20 - 60 years.

Abstract

Background: In patients with uncontrolled diabetes, an increase in Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) inhibits osteoblast differentiation so that the number of osteoblasts decreases and interferes with bone formation in orthodontic movement. Giving natural ingredients such as olive oil is proven to increase the number of osteoblasts. Purpose: To determine differences in the number of osteoblasts and their effect on the orthodontic movement of diabetic teeth after oral administration of olive oil. Method: 25 male guinea pigs divided into four groups: diabetic guinea pigs treated with olive oil at a dose of 0.7; 1.05; 1.4 ml/day, distilled water, and healthy guinea pigs were given aquadest. Alveolar bone tissue samples were taken on the 15th day after orthodontic application, and then the number of osteoblasts was calculated histologically. Result: In the diabetic model group treated with olive oil doses of 0.7; 1.05; 1.4 ml/day, distilled water, and healthy guinea pigs given aquades were 2.900 ± 0.678; 4.320 ± 0.497; 5.920 ± 0. 460; 0.200 ± 0.200; 1.320 ± 0.415. The study showed that the olive oil treatment group had more osteoblasts than the untreated group. Analysis one way ANOVA showed a very significant difference between the treatment group and the untreated group (p≤0.01), while the LSD test showed a significant difference between groups. The highest number of osteoblasts was found at a dose of 1.4 ml/day. Conclusion: There was an increase in osteoblasts in the orthodontic movement of diabetic teeth after oral administration of olive oil.

Abstract

Background: The movement of coal or other activities in the stockpile area of a steam power plant can create a coal dust hazard or commonly referred to as respirable dust. The smaller the particle size, the more harmful effects it can have on human health, such as bronchitis, decreased lung function, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Coal Worker's Pneumoconiosis (CWP), and other respiratory diseases. Purpose: To study the chemical hazards of the working environment of coal dust and the control efforts conducted in the stockpile area of a steam power plant company. Method: This research was descriptive observational with a cross-sectional study. The data were comprised of primary data collected from interviews and observations, and secondary data such as environmental measurement report and documentations owned by company. Result: The results of the measurement of coal dust hazard in the stockpile are were 0.007 mg/m3 and 0.063 mg/m3 for personal dust measurements. Some of the coal-dust-hazard control efforts performed by PT. POMI included the installation of a spray gun, a dust suppression system, reforestation, and ventilation setting. Further, OHS induction was conducted, together with safety talk, working hour regulations, toolbox meeting, training on the use of PPE, Medical Check Up (MCU), person authorization, preventive maintenance, and the use of PPE by workers. Conclusion: The measurement of the coal dust hazard in the stockpile area is below the threshold value which is 3 mg/m3 for respirable particles and 10 mg/m3 for inhalable particles. PT. POMI has done several preventive and control efforts towards coal dust hazard, and there were no health problems found in workers.

Abstract

Background: Acne is described as an abnormal skin condition caused by the disruption of excess oil production and collaboration with bacteria. Aloe vera and citronella oil are plants that have antibacterial properties, including acne-causing bacteria. Purpose: To obtain a formulation that has an anti-acne effect. Method: This research method is experimental in which the formulation of citronella oil emulgel and aloe vera extract is made as much as 10-15 grams in each formula by varying the additional ingredients in each formulation. This formula was made from three different concentrations (F1 (6%:4%), F2 (4%:6%), and F3 (5%:10%)) and tested the physical stability, among others, organoleptic, pH, homogeneity, dispersion and antibacterial activity against Propionibacterium acnes. Result: There was no significant difference between the organoleptic test, pH, homogeneity, and inclusion in the eligible category. In contrast, the dispersion test had a slight difference in F2 and F3, which did not meet the requirements. Conclusion: Inhibitory activity test of the preparations obtained the average diameter of citronella oil emulgel preparations and aloe vera extract at concentrations of F1 (6%:4%), F2 (4%:6%), and F3 (5%:10%) are 11 mm, 10.7 mm and 16 mm and the ability to inhibit bacteria by all concentrations was in a strong category. Among the three formulations known to have the most remarkable effectiveness was at F3 (5%:10%) with an inhibitory diameter of F3 16 mm.

Abstract

Background: Acne is caused by inflammation and obstruction of the skin pores, which traps excess oil (acne vulgaris). The bacterium Staphylococcus aureus is the causative agent of acne. Treatment and prevention efforts can be made traditionally. Purpose: Testing the antibacterial efficacy of the marigold flower ethanol extract cream (Tagetes erecta L.) against Staphylococcus aureus. Method: This type of research is descriptive exploratory and experimental. Samples of ethanol extract from marigold flowers (Tagetes erecta L.) were formulated into three treatments, namely concentrations of 25%, 50%, and 100% with three replications. Antibacterial efficacy testing was carried out by the agar well diffusion method. Data analysis used One-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD tests. Result: The inhibition zones produced by the ethanolic extract of marigold flowers were 8.59 ± 0.047, 9.23 ± 0.026, and 10.23 ± 0.044 respectively. Thus, a higher concentration of the ethanolic extract of marigold flowers in the cream produced more significant inhibitory activity. Conclusion: The ethanol extract cream of marigold flower (Tagetes erecta L.) showed antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and is suitable to be applied as a cream for the traditional treatment of acne (acne vulgaris).
