<![CDATA[Background:Nosocomial infection is the presence of an infection seen in patients while in the hospital or while in other health facilities, currently this is are known as Health-care Associated Infections (HAI). One of useful strategy in controlling HAI is to improve the ability of health workers in the universal precautions method. To succeed in this strategy, we need a material briefing on universal precautions so that good knowledge is obtained between healthcare staff. Therefore it is necessary to know the relationship between knowledge about universal precautions with universal precautions attitude and safety skills on healthcare staff. Methods:Article research was limited to articles from internet databases, such as ASMR, Elsevier Journal, IJCMPH, Sage Journals with the keywords universal precaution, knowledge, safety skills, attitude, and healthcare staff. Inclusion criteria, such as English articles and published from 2008- 2018,were collected and reviewed. The searching process obtained 6 articles that met requirement for inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: There were two articles that found positive correlation between knowledge of universal precautions and safety skills or attitude, but the others showed otherwise. It shows inconsistent findings in all articles. Conclusions:Knowledge of universal precaution is not the only factor that influences the safety skills or attitude of healthcare staff. It might be other factors that influence safety skill or attitude beside knowledge of universal precaution.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: Recent evidence has shown associations between cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and telomere length (TL). Many factors affect telomerase activity (TA) and TL, and statin was recently found to be associated with TA and TL. This systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to summarize the evidence on the effect of statin on TA and TL, and update the knowledge of association between TL and CVDs. Primary objective is to determine the effect of statin on TA and TL; Secondary objective, to assess the associations between TL and CVDs.Methods: The MEDLINE and Scopus databases were searched to identify eligible studies and extracted data. Meta-analysis was done to see effects of statin on TA/TL [i.e., standardized/unstandardized mean difference (SMD/USMD)] and TL on CVDs using random-effects and fixed-effects model according to heterogeneity assessed by Q test and I2.Results: Five and 18 studies were selected for the primary and secondary objectives, respectively. Pooled TA showed effect of statin on TA with SMD [95% confidence interval (CI)] of 1.90 (1.16, 2.64) TA. However, no significant effect on TL was seen. Increased risk of CHD among participants with shorter TL was estimated by a pooled risk ratio of 1.58 (1.19, 2.09). However, pooled hazard ratios (HRs) for CHD and stroke were non-significant; but shorter TL was significantly increased risk for unspecified CVDs with pooled HR of 1.33 (1.04, 1.70).Conclusions: Our study showed association between statin and TA, but not for TL. In addition, shorter TL is more likely to be higher risk for CHD and unspecified CVDs. However, results were still inconclusive based on different pooled parameters. More studies are required to confirm the association of statin with TL, possibly to elucidate its protective effect on CVDs.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: Laboratory information is increasingly recognized as a crucial factor to reduce diagnostic uncertainty and enhance quality care. Medical diagnoses and effective treatments depend on the accurate and timely reporting of laboratory test results, and the trend toward disease prevention and personalized care calls for more complex and effective tests and biomarkers. Today's clinical laboratory provides essential information for the diagnosis, monitoring, screening, prevention, early diagnosis, tailored treatment and more effective monitoring of human diseases. Response Time is an action that is carried out quickly and precisely to handle patients. While an ability for fast (responsive) service is the response time taken to the patient when the patient arrives to get a response. Response time is one indicator of service quality that affects patient satisfaction. The laboratory turnaround time is the starting point for the time of for receiving the sample, the time for registration, or the analytical sampling time and end point for analytical completion, the time for verification of results, the transfer of results to the time for medical record, and the time for report printing. Methods: In this systematic review, we searched Pubmed, Science Direct, and Scopus database published from January 2010 to March 2019. The included studies were broadly classified as reporting from healthcare/hospital and international survey. There were 21 studies that met keywords searching criteria. Then we analysed based on the content of studies, matching to our objectives Results: Out of 21 identified studies, we recognized 6 scholarly journals of turnaround time diagnostic laboratory results as quality improvement of medical care and medical diagnoses and that affects patient satisfaction. These studies concluded that turnaround time becomes a key element to patient safety that contributes to patient satisfaction. Conclusion: Turnaround time as one of quality indicator in a laboratory setting. Improvement in this parameter could give benefit to the patient and deliver service excellence. Standardized reporting method is mandatory as it will not only allow the accreditation of clinical laboratories according to the International Standard but also to assure guidance for promoting improvement processes and guaranteeing quality care to patients and patient satisfaction.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: Malassezia furfur in certain conditions can turn into a pathological phase, from the yeast phase to the mycelia phase that attacks the stratum corneum. Malassezia furfur is one of the causes of Pityriasis versicolor. The prevalence of pityriasis versicolor in Indonesia is quite high at around 40-50%. Several studies suggested that soursop leaves (Annona muricata L.) contains active substances with anti-fungal properties. This study aims to determine the inhibition of soursop leaves (Annona muricata L.) extract against the growth of Malassezia furfur.Methods: This study was an experimental study with Post-test Only Control Group Design. Malassezia furfur fungi is used as subject in this study and ethanol extract of soursop leaves as a natural antifungal against Malassezia furfur. The concentrations of extract tested were 100%, 80%, 60%, 30%. Miconazole 2% was used as a positive control while DMSO 10% was used a negative one. The result of the study was analyzed by descriptive analysis which showed by increasing average diameter of antifungal.Results: The results showed that soursop leaves (Annona muricata L.) extract had inhibitory effect on the growth of Malassezia furfur fungi at 100% concentration of 2.50 mm, 80% at 1.50 mm, 60% at 0.47 mm, 30% concentration at 0.25 mm and positive control of 14.50 mm. While as negative control, no inhibition zones were formed on SDA media.Conclusion: Soursop leaves (Annona muricata L.) extract can inhibit the growth of Malassezia furfur, but the formed inhibition zone is weak. Further research is needed to found the best type of antifungal metabolites to maximize antifungal effects.]]>
