Abstract

Background: Menstrual pain (dysmenorrhea) is a cramp in the lower abdomen that occurs during menstruation, while menstrual pain that is experienced without any abnormality in the reproductive organ is called primary dysmenorrhea. Primary dysmenorrhea case experienced by the patient is complaints of pain in the lower part, sometimes spreading to the waist and feeling like pressure or squeezing which occurs within 1-2 days of menstruation. Purpose: Determine the effect of abdominal massage therapy and tamarind turmeric herbs on reducing primary dysmenorrhea. Case analysis: A case study for treating menstrual pain using abdominal massage and herbal methods. Abdominal massage therapy is performed on the abdominal area and herbal therapy is given to the patient, namely herbal turmeric (Curcuma longa Linn.) and tamarind fruit which have analgesic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory effects. Result: Turmeric and tamarind contain active compounds curcumin and anthocyanin which work together to inhibit cyclooxygenase (COX) reactions so that they can inhibit or reduce inflammation and uterine contractions which cause menstrual pain. The treatment for primary dysmenorrhea is abdominal massage therapy 14 times, once every 2 days for 30 days. Meanwhile, tamarind turmeric herbal therapy is given 2 times a day for 7 days before menstruation and the first 3 days during menstruation with a combination dose of 10 grams of turmeric rhizome and 5 grams of tamarind fruit. Conclusion: Abdominal massage therapy and tamarind turmeric herbs affect reducing menstrual pain in the case of primary dysmenorrhea.

Abstract

Background: Isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae resistant to Carbapenem appears to be most commonly transmitted by hospitalized patients. This may cause infections which lead to mortality. Therefore, studies on molecular level will help to gain more information and be able to know their cross-transmission and resistance mechanisms among these isolates showing resistance. Purpose: Investigate the molecular characterization of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from various clinical samples. Klebsiella pneumoniae are aerobic and Gram-negative bacilli found in the gastrointestinal tract of humans and other animals and also as saprophytes in soil. Method: In this study, 401 bacteria of Klebsiella isolates were taken from various clinical samples according to standard protocol. Carbapenem-resistant genes of Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRK) isolates were detected using multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Result: The twelve isolates resistant to carbapenem were confirmed phenotypically and were confirmed using a multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction. Conclusion: The present study concluded that identification of Carbapenem-resistant genes of Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPC) could help find out the routes of dissemination of the species and may control its spread within the hospital premises.

Abstract

Background: The CTX-M gene in ESBLs-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae is associated with virulence factors and encodes for antibiotic resistance. There are currently 128 different varieties of CTX-M, which gene can hydrolyze beta-lactam medicines like cefotaxime. Purpose: Identify the CTX-M gene in Klebsiella pneumoniae from patients with Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) at a private hospital in Banyumas Region of Central Java, Indonesia. Method: Cross-sectional survey method was employed in this study. The subjects of the study comprised 40 patients with UTI admitted to a private hospital in Banyumas Region, Central Java, Indonesia. Using a direct molecular approach called Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) directed against the CTX-M gene, DNA was isolated from isolates cultured in CHROMagarTM ESBLs obtained from catheter urine samples. Result: A total of 4 out of 40 urine samples (10%) tested positive for ESBL-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae. The PCR was performed to detect the CTX-M gene in 100% of the strains. Conclusion: These findings suggest the presence of CTX-M gene found in ESBLs-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in individuals with urinary tract infections in a private hospital in Purwokerto, Banyumas regency, Central Java, Indonesia. This information can be used to assess antibiotic administration practices.

Abstract

Background: The application of technology in agricultural mechanization has not been able to prevent or reduce the threat of occupational health problems in farmers. It is necessary to identify the causative or triggering factors. Purpose: Identify the causes and types of injuries experienced by farmers. Review: The method used in this study was a literature review with an electronic database search through Springer Link, Science Direct, Pub-med, and Google Scholar based on the inclusion criteria respondents that were farmers who had experienced work-related trauma and there were interventions in the form of assessment of trauma events in farmers, using the method of a systematic review or analytical retrospective study or a population-based observational study or cross-sectional study, using Indonesian and English, published in 2018-2022. Result: The results of the literature review showed that the causes of trauma due to agriculture were agricultural machinery, hand tools/ manual agricultural tools, farm animals, wild animals, falls, ergonomic positions, and fatigue. At the same time, the types of trauma in farming accidents were soft tissue injuries, concussions, fractures, avulsions, amputations, and infections to death. Conclusion: Work-induced injuries directly affected farmers' lives, so it is necessary to increase knowledge in recognizing the factors causing injuries and management according to the type of injury experienced.

Abstract

Background: Sinogram Affirmed Iterative Reconstruction (SAFIRE) is an Iterative Reconstruction algorithm that combines IR techniques that utilize raw data and image data iterations as parameters that underlie noise regularization in images in the reconstruction process to improve image quality. Purpose: Analyze the effect of variations in SAFIRE strength values on image contrast and pathological evaluation of CT scan brain with clinical Stroke Non-Hemorrhage (SNH). Method: This research is a quantitative analytic study with an experimental approach to analyze the effect of SAFIRE strength values on image contrast and pathological assessment on CT scan brain examination. Result: Statistical test results showed a significant difference (p-value < 0.05) in all variations of SAFIRE strength, with the resulting Contrast-to-Noise Ratio (CNR) value increasing as the SAFIRE strength value used increased. The average CNR improvement was 18.4% on all SAFIRE strength values compared. This increase is affected by a linear decrease of the noise value from one SAFIRE strength value to another. Image contrast improvement also affects the pathological assessment of SNH due to the increased density differences in the hypodense lesion compared to the surrounding tissues. Conclusion: The use of the SAFIRE strength variation significantly affects image contrast values and pathological assessment in the SNH brain MSCT examination.

Abstract

Background: Application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in radiology is named automatic image interpretation of neuroimaging stroke. It takes a short time to minimize the patient's brain damage. Purpose: Determine the role of AI in ischemic brain stroke MRI examination and find out the advantages and disadvantages of applying AI to ischemic brain stroke MRI examination. Review: It was a descriptive and qualitative study with a literature review approach. The selection of articles used the ScienceDirect, Scopus, ProQuest, PubMed, and Publish or Perish databases. The inclusion criteria included full articles, with the topic of AI on ischemic brain stroke MRI examinations published in the 2017 – 2022 range, articles published by English-language international journals with a classification of Q1 – Q3, and having DOI. Seven relevant pieces of article were obtained, then descriptive analysis was carried out by comparing and presenting the articles descriptively in tabular form. Result: The role of AI in MRI brain examination with clinical ischemic stroke, namely its role in automatic lesion segmentation, Time Since Stroke (TSS) classification, and infarct volume prediction. The advantages of AI included short image processing times and accurate results. The disadvantages of AI tended to decrease performance in small lesions, a large number of patients, limited data, and false positive results. The value of the Dice Score Coefficient (DSC) (0.53 – 0.86) was already high even though it had not reached 1 because it depended on the strength of the data used. Conclusion: The role of AI in MRI imaging of ischemic brain stroke helps in the diagnosis and prognosis of ischemic stroke patients. AI in stroke neuroimaging has advantages in time effectiveness and disadvantages in data limitations.

Abstract

Background: Orthodontic treatment focuses on correcting abnormal teeth and jaw positions for better facial esthetics. Abnormal teeth can be corrected by interincisal angle, while vertical angle can determine the facial growth pattern. Purpose: Analyze the interincisal and vertical angles on convex facial profiles of Javanese orthodontic patients in the Banyumas Regency. Method: Analytical descriptive research was conducted with a cross-sectional design. A purposive sampling technique was used to obtain lateral cephalograms totaling 33 based on inclusion and exclusion criteria from three locations. The lateral cephalogram was traced using tracing paper, while the interincisal and vertical angles were measured based on Steiner's analysis. Two operators carried out measurements, starting with tracing validation and the Kappa test. Furthermore, the results were from the average measurement of the two operators. Result: The mean interincisal and vertical angles were 115.30° and 37.04° with a protrusive inclination and hyperdivergent face, respectively. The correlation test showed a p-value of 0.432 (p > 0.05), meaning there was no relationship between the interincisal and vertical angles in Javanese orthodontic patients. Conclusion: There is no relationship between the interincisal and vertical angles in the convex facial profile of Javanese orthodontic patients in the Banyumas Regency.

Abstract

Background: Gangrene is a severe complication of damaged tissue that can occur in people with Diabetes Mellitus (DM), putting them at risk for bacterial infection. A pus culture can show diabetic gangrene patients' infecting bacteria. Purpose: Determine the prevalence of infection-causing bacteria and antibiotic sensitivity tests in diabetic gangrene patients at Haji Regional General Hospital, East Java Province, for January-December 2021. Method: The method used in this study is observational analytical cross-sectional, which is based on secondary data and is analyzed using the percentage formula and Chi-Square test. Result: The data obtained from 39 patients revealed 29 (74.4%) positive patients for bacterial infection. The Gram-negative bacteria was found to cause infection more frequently (72.41%) than the Gram-positive bacteria (27.59%). The prevalence of Gram-negative bacteria species most frequently from Escherichia coli (ESBL) 13.79% (4/29), Klebsiella pneumoniae 10.35% (3/29), Proteus mirabilis 10.35% (3/29). While the dominant Gram-positive bacteria a Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) 10.35% (3/29). The antibiotic sensitivity test showed that Gram-negative group were susceptible to ertapenem, meropenem, amikacin, gentamicin, and piperacillin tazobactam while resistant to ampicillin and cefazolin. The antibiotic sensitivity tests showed that the Gram-positive group was susceptible to linezolid, vancomycin, and tigecycline while resistant to tetracycline and ciprofloxacin. Conclusion: It is important to screen the bacterial profile causing gangrene and their antibiotic susceptibility pattern in DM patients in order to give proper treatment to DM patients.

Abstract

Background: Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) is highly invasive neoplasm of oral epithelial tissue that is moderately differentiated and tends to metastasize rapidly. Capsaicin, a pungent phytochemical in red peppers, exhibits both anti-proliferative and potential pro-cancer effects on human cancer cell lines. Purpose: Determine the proliferation and apoptosis between five groups of rats induced OSCC. Method: 5 groups of treatment; C- (untreated rats), C+ (induced by DMBA), E1 (exposed to DMBA and given cisplatin), E2 (induced by DMBA and Capsaicin extract nanoparticle gel with 1% concentration), and E3 (induced by DMBA and Capsaicin extract nanoparticle gel with a concentration of 3.3%). Maceration method was used to obtain Capsaicin extract from green cayenne pepper, then made into nanoparticle gel. Tissue samples were taken after the treatment was completed, then they were pathologicallyobserved histopathological using IHC to assess apoptic activity via the TUNEL method and proliferative activity using PCNA. Result: The proliferative activity in the E1 group had a significant difference compared to the E2 and E3 groups. E2 and E3 were not significantly different (p-value ≥0.05). Apoptotic activity in Group E1 indicated a significant difference from the E2 group and was not significantly different from the E3 group, whereas the E2 and E3 groups were significantly different from each other (p-value ≤0.05). Conclusion: The research showed that Capsaicin nanoparticle gel increased apoptotic activity while decreasing proliferative activity in different treatment groups of the OSCC rat model.
