Abstract

Prevention strategies for diabetes have been found to minimize the risk of the disease through lifestyle treatments such as physical exercise and nutrition. Plants with strong antioxidant activity have previously been discovered to be effective therapy for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. A total of 12 English articles were reviewed. Black rice bran, in its raw extract form, modulate the activity of enzymes, hormones, and molecular signaling related to glucose homeostasis in the body. Black rice bran increases the defense of pancreatic β cells against apoptosis. Bioactive substances in black rice bran such as anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, γ-oryzanol regulate diabetes-related molecular signaling which ultimately leads to improvement in glucose levels, insulin levels, restoration and protection of pancreatic β cells against apoptosis. These bioactive substances are also possible in suppressing oxidative stress, increasing antioxidant status and decreasing inflammation which is a common condition in diabetes. The conclusion of this literature review was black rice bran has the potential to have an antidiabetic effect through various mechanisms, in which this effect is possible due to the bioactive substances contained in it.

Abstract

Strawberry is a nutritious food, but the variety of processed foods is still limited; therefore, innovation is required to develop a wider range of strawberry-based products. This study aimed to analyze the effect of strawberry substitution on the characteristics of snack bars. The experimental design employed a completely randomized design (CRD) with three levels of strawberry fruit substitution on the flour: F0 (without strawberries), F1 (25%), F2 (50%), and F3 (75%). All snack bar ingredients were mixed until it became a smooth dough, then baked at 180°C with a low heat setting for 30 minutes. The study was conducted in March-June 2022, with 35 respondents. The organoleptic test data were analyzed with the Kruskal Wallis test and the Mann-Whitney test (data was not normal), the proximate content and dietary fiber were analyzed with a t-test. The result, the organoleptic test revealed that the snack bar with the selected formula was F1 (25%) with proximate results of 5,65% water content, 0,45% ash content, 2,7% protein, 13,93% fat, 27,26% carbohydrates, and food fiber content of 5,68%. Based on the proximate test and dietary fiber content, there was no statistically significant (p= 0,112) difference between the control and F1 formulas. In conclusion, strawberry fruit substitution affects the characteristics of snack bars.

Abstract

Cirrhosis is the final stage of all chronic liver diseases. Complications that occur are malnutrition. Administration of Hepatogomax as an enteral formula with adequate nutrients, specifically Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAA) and Medium-chain Triglyceride (MCT), can reduce serum ALP, bilirubin, and GG levels. This study aimed to determine the effect of hepatogomax in different doses on serum ALP, bilirubin, and GG levels. The study used the True Experimental post-test group design. Twenty-four male rats were divided into control group K normal and K(-) cirrhotic, treatment groups P1 and P2, given TAA and hepatogomax induction, respectively, at doses of 4,87 g/200gBW/day and 14,6 g/200gBW/day. Intervention for 28 days at the PAU Laboratory, Gadjah Mada University, February 2022 to April 2022. Statistical analysis used the Kruskal Wallis and Mann Whitney Post Hoc tests. The data is the result of examining serum levels after the intervention. The results showed significant differences in ALP, bilirubin, and GGT (p<0,05) in the group of rats induced by TAA intervention with hepatogomax compared to those not given hepatogomax. There was no significant difference in the decrease in serum ALP levels between the K normal (p<0,05) and P2 (p>0,05) groups. Giving hepatogomax at a dose of 14,6 g/200BB/day reduced serum ALP, bilirubin, and GG levels. In conclusion, Hepatogomax decreased ALP, bilirubin, and GGT serum levels in rats with cirrhosis. The most significant decrease in serum ALP, bilirubin, and GGT levels was observed at the P2 dose.

Abstract

The decline in the number of COVID-19 does not return people's conditions to the period before the pandemic. Efforts to prevent the spread of the coronavirus are still being carried out by implementing health protocols and keeping the body's immunity in top shape, one of which is by consuming balanced nutritious foods high in antioxidants. The research aims to develop high-antioxidant biscuits made from local flour and spices as a functional snack to increase the body's immune system. The research was held from September 2021 until January 2022 at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Universitas Muhammadiyah Jakarta. The research design was experimental, using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The biscuit formulation process was carried out by substituting wheat flour with purple sweet potato flour at five different ratios (4:0, 3:1, 2:2, 1:3, 0:4) and adding seven types of spices (Ginger, Cinnamon, Turmeric, Kencur, Lemongrass, Curcuma, and Cloves) with the same amount for each formula—a total of 30 semi-trained panelists in the sensory test. Data were analyzed using Kruskal Wallis. Proximate analysis and antioxidant analysis using the AOAC method and DPPH method. The results showed that the selected formula based on the sensory test was F2 with a ratio of wheat flour to purple sweet potato flour of 2:2. The hedonic test showed that there were significant differences in the color, texture, and aftertaste on biscuits (p=0,000, p=0,031, p=0,023 respectively). F2 is the formula the panelists chose, which has nutrition facts that meets SNI biscuits (2011) and has intense antioxidant activity (14,6 ug/mg).

Abstract

Pregnancy outcomes are affected by many factors: nutrition and physical activity. This study aims to determine the relationship between physical activity and nutritional adequacy level of pregnant women in the third trimester with pregnancy outcomes, namely maternal fasting blood glucose levels, blood pressure and amniotic fluid volume, and baby's birth weight and length. An observational study on a cohort was conducted on 34 pregnant women in their third trimester and followed until delivery in the Ciampea sub-district, Bogor, Indonesia. The data were processed through descriptive analysis for each variable. Bivariate tests between the predictor and outcome variables were performed using Pearson's correlation and Multiple Regression at 95% CI. Based on multiple regression analysis, we found that the samples' fasting blood glucose in the third trimester was predicted to be 36,9% positively affected by pre-pregnancy body mass index (b= 2,521; p= 0,009) and total physical activity during the third trimester (b= 0,055; p= 0,006). In conclusion, the nutritional adequacy level of macronutrients in the third trimester has not yet significantly affected pregnancy outcomes in this study. It is suggested that pregnant women should avoid prolonged sedentary activity and increase appropriate exercise to achieve maternal health and improve birth outcomes.

Abstract

Maternal self-efficacy in parenting is often associated with complementary feeding practices. Maternal and external factors influence the level of maternal self-efficacies. This study aimed to measure the relationship between family supports and maternal factors with complementary feeding self-efficacy for children aged 6-24 months. The survey research has a cross-sectional design. The research subjects were 74 mothers who were selected using simple random sampling. Data collection was carried out in the work area of Kalirungkut Public Health Centers for one month. Family support variables, maternal factors, and maternal self-efficacy were collected using a questionnaire, and then the data on each variable was processed by editing data, coding, and tabulating. The data analysis with Chi-square test and logistic regression on 95% CI. The results of this study were that age (p=0,872), parity (p=0,660), knowledge (p=0,252), informational (p=0,135), and instrumental support (p=1,000) were not related to maternal self-efficacy. There was a significant relationship between education (p=0,040), emotional (p=0,027), and appraisal support (p=0,020) with maternal self-efficacy. Appraisal support is the dominant factor affecting children's complementary feeding self-efficacy (p<0,05; OR=3,711). The conclusion is that education, emotional support, and appraisal support are significantly related, and appraisal support affects complementary feeding self-efficacy.

Abstract

It is clearly understood that the economic disruption during the COVID-19 outbreak is causing people to lose their income and access to healthy food. Our study aims to investigate people's spending on food and how their daily expenses on cigarettes impact diet quality. We conducted a cross-sectional online survey in April, 2020 and interviews through social media. There were 180 subjects followed in this study. Analysis was conducted using chi-square. It is found that even though our subjects able to access food but their diet quality to have whole food of four food group daily is not adequate. There is significant association between food expenses on whole food and processed food to diet quality (p<0,001). While there is no significant association between smoking behaviours to diet quality (p=0,684) but the percentage of those who smoke 1 to 3 cigarettes and more than 3 cigarettes daily is larger to have poor diet quality rather than people who do not smoke at all. This study concluded household's expenses for cigarettes and food during the COVID-19 pandemic were able to explain whether diet quality is poor or good. The study suggests the government needs to impose smoking restrictions as part of COVID-19 prevention and reassure people's accessibility to nutritious food during this pandemic.

Abstract

Sleep Deprivation (SD) reduced leptin levels, increased ghrelin levels, and it caused were multifactorial, so research was conducted on experimental animals to prove whether SD was the single factor causing changes in body weight (BW). The study's objectives were to know the difference in BW after induction of paradoxical and total SD and to observe the improvement in sleep recovery (SR). This study was true experimental with posttest only, and a control group design used 25 male albino rats randomly shared into five groups; control, PSD, TSD, PSD+SR, dan TSD+SR on  August – September 2021. The weight is measured by OHAUS®  balance. Statistical analysis used by One-way ANOVA and paired t-test denoted no significant difference after SD (p=0,277) and SR (p=0,297), a significant difference in the TSD+SR and TSD between before (p=0,014), after SD  (p=0,008), and after SR (p=0,034). Sleep deprivation increases BW through raised ghrelin, and SR  reverses the effects by increasing the antioxidant. Results must be confirmed by measuring ghrelin levels and leptin orexin type 1 and 2 receptors. In conclusion, that was a significant difference in the TSD+SR and TSD  between pre and post-sleep deprivation and the TSD+SR  between pre and post-SR.
