Background: Increased blood pressure for a long time can increase the risk of kidney failure, co­ronary heart disease, brain damage, and other di­seases. In 2019, it is estimated that hyper­tens­ion is experienced by 1.13 billion people in the world with most (two thirds) living in low and mid­­dle income countries. Other study also shows that the police and military are at risk of develop­ing hypertension due to a number of factors such as low know­led­ge about healthy and nutritious food, co-workers who are smokers, and consum­ing alco­hol. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors for hypertension in the police and military in the world using meta analysis. Subjects and Method: This was a meta-ana­lysis and systematic review. The articles used we­re obtained from Google Scholar, Springer Link, Pro­­Quest, and Science Direct databases. Selected arti­cles published from 2000 to 2020. Keywords to search for articles are as follows: hypertension po­lice personnel and military, or hypertension po­lice personnel and military. The articles studi­ed are 3 full text articles with cross sectional stu­dy designs and 1 full text articles with case cont­rol study design. Articles are col­lect­ed using PRI­S­­­MA diagrams, and analy­zed us­ing the Re­vi­ew Ma­nager application 5.3. Results: Overweight (aOR= 1.42; 95% CI = 1.01 to 2.00; p= 0.04), alcohol consumption (aOR­=­ 1.­55; 95% CI= 1.12 to 2.12; p= 0.007), ciga­rette con­­­­sumption (aOR= 1.45 ; 95% CI= 1.06 to 1.97; p= 0.020) is a risk factor for hyper­­­tension in the po­­­lice and military. Conclusion: Overweight, alcohol consump­tion, and cigarette consump­tion, are risk fac­tors for hypertension in po­lice and military personnel.

Abstract

Background: Diarrhea and pneumonia together account for 29% of all child deaths globally, resulting in the deaths of more than two million children each year. Zinc deficiency is associated with decreased immunity and an increase in serious infectious diseases. Zinc deficiency is likely to be a major cause of increased mortality of malnourished infants in developing countries. Numerous studies have shown that zinc supplementation reduces the duration and severity of diarrhea. In addition, zinc administration can also prevent pneumonia, and is effective in recovering fever, shortness of breath and respiratory rate. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of zinc on the incidence of diarrhea and pneumonia in children under five. Subjects and Method: This research is a systematic review and meta-analysis conducted with PRISMA flow diagram. Article searches through journal databases include: PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Schoolar. The keywords used were (“Zinc” OR “Diarrhea”) AND (“Zinc” OR “Pneumonia”) AND “randomized controlled trial”. Inclusion criteria were full paper articles with Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) research methods, the relationship measure used was Mean SD and Odds Ratio, the intervention given was zinc, research subjects had an age range of 0-6 years. Eligible articles were analyzed using the Revman5.3 application. Results: Meta-analysis of 14 articles showed that zinc administration reduced diarrhea duration 0.73 days statistically significantly (MD= -0.73; 95% CI-1.22 to -0.24, p<0.003, zinc administration reduced pneumonia duration 0.58 days more rapidly and significantly statistically not significant (MD -0.58; 95% CI-0.32 to -1.04, p<0.001) than placebo. Conclusion: Zinc is effective in reducing the duration of diarrhea and treating pneumonia in children under five.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension is called the silent killer for it has high prevalence rate and is asymptomatic; thus, it needs to be early prevented. When blood pressure is high and uncontrollable, it may lead to complications. Today, hypertension is not only found in elderly, it is also found among young adults at age > 18 and it tends to increase annually as they frequently consume high sodium and high fat and lack of physical activities along with the development of technology. Developed technology has made everything easy to do without burning excessive energy. More researches on hypertension are conducted on elderly and only a few are conducted on young adults. The objective of this study is to discover the correlation among sodium intake, fat intake, and physical activity with prevalence of hypertension in young adults at Arifin Achmad Regional Public Hospital, Riau Province.Subjects and Method: This is an analytical observational study with case-control design that was carried out at Arifin Achmad Regional Public Hospital, Riau Province, Indonesia. A sample of 80 respondents divided into a case group with 40 respondents and control group with 40 respondents was selected by purposive sampling. The depen

Abstract

Background: Antiretroviral therapy (ART) has been successful in increasing the life span and quality of life of people living with HIV. The success of antiretroviral treatment can be assessed from the patient's compliance in taking the drugs prescribed by the doctor at the right time and at the right dose. Disclosure of HIV status and social support are factors associated with adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART). This study aims to estimate the magnitude of disclosure of HIV status and social support with antiretroviral therapy adherence to adult patients with HIV/AIDS with a meta-analysis study. Subjects and Method: This was a systematic review and meta-analysis conducted using PRISMA flow diagrams. Article searches were conducted through journal databases including: Google Scholar, PubMed, Springer Link, Clinical key and ProQuest. The articles used in this study are articles that have been published from 2010-2021. The keywords to search for articles are as follows: "disclosing HIV and antiretroviral adherence", "Social Support or family support and antiretroviral adherence". The inclusion criteria were full text with cross-sectional study design, articles in English, multivariate analysis with adjusted odds ratio. Eligible articles were analyzed using the Revman 5.4 application. Results: A meta-analysis of 9 observational studies showed that patients who disclosed their HIV status increased adherence to antiretroviral therapy 2.3 times compared to patients who did not disclose significantly (aOR= 2.36 95% CI= 1.75 to 3.19; p< 0.001). A meta-analysis of 9 observational studies showed that patients who received social support significantly increased adherence to antiretroviral therapy 1.4 times compared to patients who did not have support (aOR= 1.46; 95% CI= 1.08 to 1.97; p= 0.010). Conclusion: Disclosure of HIV status and social support improves adherence to antiretroviral therapy in adult patients with HIV/AIDS.
