Abstract

Background: Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) symptoms can result from improper computer use. The manifestation of symptoms may encompass ocular strain, cephalalgia, ocular pain, xerophthalmia, diplopia, and visual blurring, influencing occupational efficiency. Purpose: To analyze factors related to CVS complaints among programmers at an IT consulting company in Jakarta. Method: A cross-sectional quantitative descriptive research involving 60 participants was conducted. The research examined the relationship between CVS complaints among programmers and several independent variables, including individual characteristics such as gender, age, visual aids, rest time, duration of computer use, work period, and workstation factors such as viewing distance from the screen to the horizontal eye line. The Spearman rank correlation test was utilized for data analysis. Result: Specifically, gender (sig.= 0.000), visual aids (sig.= 0.003), and the position of the top screen with the horizontal line of the eye (sig.= 0.029) were significantly related to CVS complaints. Age (sig.= 0.608), length of rest (sig.=0.055), duration of computer use (sig.= 0.138), work period (sig.= 0.717), and screen viewing distance (sig.= 0.058) did not show a significant relationship with CVS complaints. Conclusion: There is a relationship between gender, visual aids, and the position of the top of the screen with the horizontal line of the eye with CVS complaints. There is no relationship between age, length of rest, duration of computer use, working time, and screen viewing distance. Companies are expected to provide education regarding the correct use of computers, regular eye health checks, and enforce a 20-20-20 rule (20 minutes of rest, looking at objects 20 feet away for 20 seconds).

Abstract

Background: One of the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) efforts to minimize risk is by carrying out risk management. The challenge in informal industries is that comprehensive risk analysis has not been carried out, so there is no control program to prevent work accidents. There have been work accidents in the roof tile industry due to various potential dangers that were not controlled beforehand. Purpose: To analyze the risks that exist in the roof tile manufacturing process. Method: This research uses descriptive research with a quantitative approach. This research was conducted in one of the roof tile industries in Indonesia. The units of analysis in this research are the process of mixing raw materials, grinding, molding, drying, and burning. The type of OHS risk analytical used is HIRARC, one of the implementations of ISO 31000 : 2018 for company risk management. HIRARC consists of hazard identification, risk assessment, risk evaluation, and risk control. Result: There are 89 potential hazards in the roof tile manufacturing process from. Most of the risks are low-level though there are still two categorized as very high. The results of the risk evaluation are categorized as Acceptable. Controls are carried out, starting from elimination until the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Conclusion: The most commonly identified hazards are physical hazards. Most risks fall to "Low and Acceptable’"category. However, there are still some risks that fall to "Unacceptable" category. Therefore, risk controls still need to be implemented based on hierarchy of controls.

Abstract

Background: Leptospirosis is a potentially life-threatening disease caused by bacteria of the genus Leptospira. The accurate identification and characterization of Leptospira species are critical for disease surveillance, outbreak investigation, and treatment strategies. Molecular techniques, such as Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequencing, have revolutionized the field of microbiology, providing rapid and accurate identification of Leptospira strains. However, optimizing these molecular techniques for accurate examination of Leptospira species can be challenging due to the genetic diversity and complexity of these bacteria. Purpose: This research aims to identify the most suitable primers for the precise identification of pathogenic Leptospira strains. Method: This research used the PCR method, using LipL32, rrs2, seqY, LipL41, IcdA, and Adk primers. A total of 17 isolates of pathogenic Leptospira bacteria were cultured from Institute of Vector Control and Reservoir Disease (IVRCD) in Salatiga, Indonesia. Result: The results of the research showed that the LipL41 and IcdA primers were found to be effective in distinguishing pathogenic strains, while the seqY, LipL32, Adk, and rrs2 primers required further refinement. The suitable Melting Temperature (TM) or annealing temperature is 58°C with 35 cycles of amplification. DNA concentration and purity had an A260/A280 ratio ranging between 1.8 and 2.8. Conclusion: LipL41 (500 bp) and IcdA (700 bp) are suitable primers for identifying pathogenic Leptospira.

Abstract

Background: Dentures or prostheses function to replace chewing and dental arch structures. Denture plates used in dentistry are made with acrylic resin, metal, or a combination of acrylic and metal. Metals are shiny, opaque chemical substances and good conductors of heat and can be polished. Recycling or reusing used metal is an option in making prostheses because the price of new metal is increasing, and metal recycling is quite effective. Purpose: To determine the effect of repeated metal casting on the strength of the metal frame denture base. Method: The current research is a laboratory study with a tensile test in the form of dumbbells with iso 22674 with a length of 15 ± 1 mm and a diameter of 3 ± 1 mm. This research used 18 CoCr metal samples divided into three groups, namely 100% new metal group (control), 50% new + 50% repeated composition group, and 100% repeated group. Result: The mean strain of the new 100% CoCr metals group was 0.133%, strain mean of the new 50% CoCr + 50% repeated metals group was 0.1%, and the strain of the 100% repeated CoCr metals group was 0.066%. The average modulus of elasticity (MPa) for the new 100% CoCr metals group is 7866, or 711 MPa, the new 50% CoCr + 50% repeat metals group is 7538, or 833 MPa, the 100% CoCr metals group is 6659, or 336 MPa. Conclusion: The new 100% CoCr metal group has a higher average tensile strength value than the 50% new CoCr metal + 50% repeated group, and the lowest is the 100% repeated CoCr metal group.

Abstract

Background: The hepatitis B test can be conducted using the real-time PCR method. In chronic cases, the test is performed by detecting one of the Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) specific genes, HBcAg. The real-time PCR method requires optimization to obtain optimal results. Purpose: This research aims to determine the optimal temperature and time for denaturation in the hepatitis B test using the real-time PCR method. Method: The research method used was a quasi-experiment involving variations in temperature (94 °C, 95 °C, and 96 °C) and time (10 seconds, 15 seconds, and 20 seconds) for denaturation. Data processing resulted in static group comparisons based on 27 primary data from the Cycle Threshold (CT) value. Result: Variations in temperature conditions, specifically at 94 °C, 95 °C, and 96 °C, combined with a denaturation time of 10 seconds, yielded the mean CT values of 26.495, 26.355, and 26.003, respectively. When the temperature conditions were maintained at 94 °C, 95 °C, and 96 °C, with a denaturation time of 15 seconds, yielded the mean CT values of 25.962, 25.641, and 25.396. Similarly, under temperature conditions of 94 °C, 95 °C, and 96 °C with a denaturation time of 20 seconds, yielded the mean CT values of 26.544, 26.505, and 25.830 were obtained. Conclusion: Optimal results in this study are obtained through the acquisition of the smallest CT value, namely at temperature conditions of 96 °C and 15 seconds.

Abstract

Background: Aesthetic and functional dental restoration is a hope for people who have lost teeth, especially in the anterior region. Missing tooth 13 with more than 2 mm gingival recession can be made into a cantilever bridge restoration with the addition of porcelain gingiva. Gingival recession is when the tooth root surface is exposed due to periodontal tissue loss. Zirconia is a dental restoration material often used because of its biocompatibility, strength, and aesthetics. Purpose: To determine the procedure for making all porcelain cantilever bridge restorations in cases of gingival recession using zirconia material. Case analysis: The dental laboratory received a dental cast model of a 39-year-old female patient missing tooth 13 and had gingival recession on tooth 14 of more than 2 mm. Order in the form of restoration of all porcelain cantilever bridges from zirconia. Result: The cantilever bridge coping was made from zirconium dioxide and then layered with feldspathic porcelain to achieve optimal strength and aesthetics. A rest is made on tooth 12 to provide additional retention. Conclusion: The procedure for making all porcelain cantilever bridge restorations includes making diagnostic wax-up, scanning, coping design, milling, sintering, fitting, sandblasting, layering, anatomy, and glazing. Things that must be considered are the design, thickness of the coping, and connectors to achieve a restoration that is strong, resistant to fracture, and has good aesthetics. Porcelain gingiva was added in the cervical area of tooth 14 restorations to cover the recession

Abstract

Background: Foodborne diseases are very common and easily spread, among strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Listeria monocytogenes, and Clostridium spp. Purpose: To isolate and characterize foodborne pathogenic bacteria and fungi in various foodstuffs. Method: A total of 260 samples (130 each from Peshawar and Mardan) were collected and analyzed. Only 61 tested positive for various types of bacterial and fungal pathogens. Then evaluated for their antibiotic/anti-fungal sensitivity patterns towards a panel of selected antibiotics and anti-fungal. Result: The Gram-positive isolates showed the highest resistance to methicillin (79%) and amoxicillin (63%), most sensitive to ceftriaxone (88%), levofloxacin (86%), and cefotaxime (77%). Intermediate activities were exhibited by azithromycin (50%) and vancomycin (55%). In terms of the Gram-negative bacteria, the best activities were shown by ciprofloxacin (100%), cefoxitin (100%), chloramphenicol (100%), and ceclor (100%). Intermediate activity was discovered for cefixime (50%), cefuroxime (50%), and linezolid (50%). Three anti-fungal drugs (fluconazole, voriconazole, and nystatin) were used to assess their potency against the fungal pathogens. Mucor spp. proved relatively more susceptible to all anti-fungal drugs. The only Fusarium spp. isolate was highly resistant to all anti-fungal in this research. Conclusion: The prevalence of Gram-positive bacteria is greater than Gram-negative bacteria in the current study. The frequency of fungal pathogens was relatively high in both raw and ready-to-eat foods, while packaged foods were free from fungal contamination. We recommend that appropriate safety when handling and cooking food. Moreover, food products should be screened for different pathogenic microbes.
