Abstract

Red galangal rhizome (Alpinia purpurata k. Scum) has a larger size and has more therapeutic properties. Red galangal has compounds that can inhibit fungal growth namely flavonoids and saponins which can interfere with the function of the fungal cytoplasmic membrane, besides that they can cause leakage and aggregation of the outer cell membrane, which can inhibit the growth of dermatophytes. This study is a laboratory experimental study, using antifungal activity test with diffusion method using paper discs to see the comparison of the red galangal extract effectiveness and ketoconazole 2% on the growth of dermatophytes fungi Microsporum canis, Microsporum gypseum, and Trichophyton metagrophytes by measuring the inhibition zone around the fungal colonies. The concentrations of red galangal extract used were 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50% and used 2% ketoconazole as control. The data was analyzed using the One Way Anova test. Result of this study shown that all concentrations without 10 % of red galangal have inhibited zones of Microsporum canis, Microsporum gypseum, and Trichophyton metagrophytes but not better than ketoconazole 2 % activities.

Abstract

Free radicals in the body will increase with excessive of ultraviolet (UV) light exposure, induce oxidative stress with the formation of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). A visible effect on skin tissue known as photoaging, including the process of melanogenesis catalyzed by the tyrosinase enzyme, risked for pigmentation or melanoma disorder.The use of natural ingredients has been widely used by the community to prevent the aging process. Natural compounds from a plant can be a source of antioxidants and have anti-aging abilities through inhibition of the tyrosinase enzyme. Black soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) are high in isoflavone compound, one of which is daidzein.This study evaluates the antioxidant and anti-aging potential of black soybean extract with daidzein. Antioxidants using the DPPH method and anti-aging tests carried out, namely the inhibition of the tyrosinase enzyme, are very important in the aging process.Daidzein has an IC50 value of DPPH scavenging activity around 109.34±2.80 µg/mL lower than black soybean extract with 116.52±2.50 µg/mL. Results on tyrosinase enzyme inhibition activity, black soybean extract had an IC50 value of 70.71±1.83 µg/mL lower compared to daidzein with 72.65±2.81 µg/mL. In contrast to the better antioxidant activity of daidzein, the black soybean extract are more potential to inhibit the enzyme tyrosinase

Abstract

Adolscent girls phase (12-21 years) is a very important individual development segment, beginning with the maturation of physical and reproductive organs that characterize women of childbearing age. Body mass index (BMI) is one of indicator used to see women of childbearing age status related to pregnancy. Kidney damage causes an increase in urinary creatinine but high urinary creatinine does not necessarily indicate kidney damage. Our objective is to determine the relationship between BMI and urine creatinine  in adolscent girls in several Medan health schools. We performed an observasional study with cross sectional design of 56 participants   19-21 old girls. 24 hours urine creatinine concentration was measured using jaffe reaction method. The highest average BMI value (21.10 kg/m2 is the normal category (75%), mean urine creatinine concentration (1263,86 mg/24 hour) is also normal category. Data analysis with spearman correlation between BMI and 24-hour urine creatinine level was not statistically different (p = 0.140). High BMI values tend to have high 24-hour urine creatinine levels too, but statistically there was no significant relationship between 24-hour urine creatinine levels and BMI values in this study.

Abstract

According to WHO, in 2017 there are an estimated 425 million sufferers of diabetes mellitus. Indonesia is placed in the seventh rank in the world in 2015, with an estimated 10 million sufferers. To reduce the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus, improvements need to be made, such as lifestyle modification and treatment. Most anti-diabetic drugs have high side effects. Corn silk is one of the natural ingredients that contain flavonoids, which can reduce blood fat levels. The dose of corn silk of 500 mg/kg BW is the best substance against diabetic rats from excessive weight loss. Therefore, corn silk can be calculated to have an anti-diabetic effect by using lipids, eliminating free radicals, and increasing antioxidant capacity.

Abstract

Aedes aegypti is the main vector in several diseases such as Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF).Various types of efforts to control Aedes aegypti were carried out to terminate the transmission chain by spraying (organizing) the organophosphate insecticide. The use of irrational insecticides causes an increase in esterase enzymes, giving rise to the resistance of Aedes aegypti to insecticides. The purpose of this study is to determine the resistance status of Aedes aegypti larvae to organophosphate insecticides in Medan Selayang. The type of research used in this study is descriptive research with cross-sectional methods, using 276 larvae of Aedes aegypti. The results of this study are mosquito larvae that are susceptible (sensitive) to organophosphate insecticides by 66.3%, while mosquito larvae that are tolerant (moderate resistance) of organophosphate insecticides are 33.7% and resistant (high resistance) mosquito larvae were not found. There is 33.7% of Aedes aegypti larvae are tolerant (moderate resistance) to organophosphate insecticides and resistant (high resistance) mosquito larvae were not found.

Abstract

Abstract: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a multifactorial disease belongs to the "burden disease" in childhood. It needs to be prevented to reach their optimal growth. Exclusive breastfeeding given during the first six months of life provides nutritional benefits and is thought to protect children from allergic or infectious diseases, such as AD. This study aims to determine the relationship between breastfeeding and onset of atopic dermatitis. This was an observational analytic study using cross-sectional method. Samples were taken consecutively at the Dermatovenereology Polyclinic of referral hospital and Puskesmas in Medan. This study included all pediatric patients aged 6 months to <18 years diagnosed with AD and were interviewed with informed consent. Children who didn’t get breastmilk were excluded. There result was a significant relationship between breastfeeding (exclusively to partially) and AD onset. There was no relationship between breastfeeding (exclusively to prelacteally) and AD onset. Polyunsaturated fatty acids, sIgA, and TGF-β2 in the breast milk of mothers with atopy is lower than mothers without atopy. Breastfeeding exclusively has a protective effect on AD. Further research is needed to analyzes various factors by comparing genetic predisposition.

Abstract

Vitamin D is a prohormone and its level correlated with several cardiovascular diseases (CVD) biomarker such as blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) and lipid profile (total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). This study aim to analyze correlation of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D/ 25(OH)D levels with blood pressure and lipid profile in healthy subjects. This cross-sectional study was conducted on 39 healthy subjects from gym in Medan city. Measurement of vitamin D levels using Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Blood pressure was measured twice after 10 minutes rest using mercury sphygmomanometer. Lipid profile were measured by Cobas 6000 (C510+E610). Correlation of 25(OH)D with blood pressure and lipid profile were analyzed using Spearman correlation test. There was a significant correlation between of 25(OH)D levels and diastolic blood pressure (p = 0.047, r = -0.272), but not in systolic blood pressure and the lipid profile: TC, TG, HDL, and LDL, respectively. (p = 0.159, p = 0.290, p = 0.425, p = 0.492, p = 0.156). This study concluded that 25(OH)D levels was correlated with diastolic blood pressure with low correlation, in that decreasing of 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels will increased diastolic blood pressure.
