Abstract

Background: Seborrhoeic Dermatitis (DS) is a papulosquamous skin disorder with a predilection for areas rich in sebaceous glands, scalp, face and body. Seborrheic dermatitis in immunocompromised patients is clinically different from non-immunocompromised seborrheic dermatitis patients. Seborrheic dermatitis is one of the clinical symptoms and is most often found in immunocompromised patients such as individuals who have HIV/AIDS compared to seborrheic dermatitis patients in general.Objective: To determine the difference in seborrhoeic dermatitis area severity index in immunocompromised and non-immunocompromised patients.Method: This research design uses analytical observational with a cross sectional approach. The population of seborrheic dermatitis patients was 70 people with 35 immunocompromised patient respondents and 35 non-immunocompromised respondents. Data collection starts from September 22 to October 26 2023. Seborrheic dermatitis examination is carried out on the face and scalp by comparing the area affected by seborrheic dermatitis with the surrounding area and then assessing the degree of the area affected by seborrheic dermatitis using SDASI. The assessment of the area of the lesion is multiplied by the sum of the erythema, scale and papule scores with a severity classification, namely: Mild: 0-7.9, Moderate: 8-15.9, Severe: >16. The results of the examination will be recorded and a score for the severity of seborrheic dermatitis on the face and scalp will be calculated.Results: Seborrhoeic dermatitis in 35 immunocompromised respondents and 35 non-immunocompromised respondents. The results obtained from the seborrheic dermatitis patient group were immunocompromised patients, namely 14 respondents with mild degrees (40.0%), 17 respondents with moderate degrees (48.6%), and four respondents with severe degrees (11.4%) while in the group of non-immunocompromised patients there were 20 respondents with mild degrees. (57.1%), 11 respondents had a moderate degree (31.4%), and four respondents had a mild degree (11.4%). The results of research analysis using the independent T-test showed that there was a difference in SDASI in immunocompromised and non-immunocompromised patients with a value of p = 0.040 (p < 0.05).Conclusion: there are differences in SDASI in immunocompromised and non-immunocompromised patients.

Abstract

Background: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a disease whose prevalence continues to increase every year. In 2019, Indonesia was ranked number 7 with the highest number of DM sufferers, namely 10.7 million. Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by increased blood glucose levels, this occurs because there is not enough insulin produced by the pancreas or a condition where the body cannot use the insulin produced effectively. One examination that can be used to assess a patient's glycemic control is the Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) examination. Smoking habit is known to be a risk factor for diabetes mellitus. Even though there are many disadvantages, the number of smokers in Indonesia is still difficult to reduce due to the lack of education and control regulations that suppress smoking behavior in society. This causes smoking to become a risk factor for many uncontrolled diseases in the world of health.Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between smoking habits and HbA1c levels in male patients with type two DM at the Gotong Royong Hospital.Research method: This research uses observational analytical research with a case control study approach. In the research sample, namely type two Diabetes Mellitus patients who had their HbA1c levels checked at the Gotong Royong Hospital, a questionnaire was completed regarding the patient's smoking habits. From the results of the questionnaire, patients will be classified into non-smokers, light smokers, moderate smokers, and heavy smokers.Result: There is no significant relationship between smoking habits and HbA1c levels in type two diabetes mellitus patients at Gotong Royong Hospital with a P-value = 0.681.

Abstract

Background: The widespread use of plastic and poor management of plastic waste is an environmental problem and has an impact on human health. The most commonly found microplastic contaminant is polyethylene polymer. Ingested microplastic particles will undergo an endocytosis mechanism and be absorbed into the bloodstream. This then triggers an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) which induces oxidative stress and results in an inflammatory response. This study tries to analyze the effect of administering microplastics on increasing blood serum C-reactive protein as a biomarker and marker of the inflammatory response due to microplastics. Method: The experimental analytical research used 42 Rattus Norvegicus Wistar Strain animals, which were divided into 5 experimental groups and 1 control group. Quantitative data measurements/collection were carried out at two times (pre-post-test control group design) and analyzed by non-parametric comparison using the Friedman Test to see the increase in C-Reactive Protein (CRP) levels in the blood serum of Rattus norvegicus Wistar Strain before and after being given intake polyethylene microplastics. Result: In all groups X0-X5, The results of the comparative test using the Friedman test showed a significant value of P = 0.000 (P < 0.05), so it can be concluded that there is a difference in pre and post experimental CRP levels. Discussion: The increase in serum CRP levels from the control group to the X5 treatment group may be due to oxidative stress mechanisms, especially in hepatocyte cells, smooth muscle cells, macrophage cells, endothelial cells, lymphocyte cells and adipocyte cells which induce the production of CRP protein, especially native C-reactive protein (nCRP) and monomeric C-reactive protein (mCRP). The difference in serum CRP levels was significant (P = 0.000), where there was an increase in serum CRP levels post treatment (post experimental) from the lowest mean of 0.05 mg/L (pre experimental) to the highest of 0.98 mg/L on average, indicating that administration of microplastic intake at the dose studied had an impact on increasing serum CRP levels in response to an inflammatory reaction. The limitation of this research is that there are no journals that examine microplastics on serum CRP levels, resulting in a lack of research that can be used as a reference or comparative theory. Conclusion: Administration of Microplastic Polyethylene at the dose studied in the treatment group caused a significant increase in Rattus Norvegicus Wistar Strain Serum CRP levels.

Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) infection remains a concern for developing countries especially Indonesia due to its high prevalence and mortality rate. Malnutrition is often observed in TB patients. Malnutrition can be assessed through the Body Mass Index (BMI) level. Low BMI levels can increase the progression of pulmonary TB and resulting more severe manifestations in chest X-ray. The severity of pulmonary TB is determined based on the assessment of chest X-ray lesions, which categorized as mild, moderate, and severe.Objective: The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between BMI levels and the severity of pulmonary TB in patients aged 18-64 years at Gotong Royong Hospital, Surabaya.Method: The method of this research is observational analytical with a cross-sectional design on pulmonary TB patients who underwent chest X-ray examinations before treatment. The study utilizes secondary data from the patient’s medical records, including weight, height, and chest X-ray images. Additional supporting data which is not available in the medical records were obtained through the patient responses using Google Form. Samples were taken according to the inclusion criteria and all data were collected at Gotong Royong Hospital from July to September 2023.Results: There are 39 samples collected in this research, consisted of 17 men and 22 women. The result based on Spearman correlation analysis revealed that the correlation between BMI levels and the severity of pulmonary TB has a p-value=0,397 (p > 0,05).Conclusion: There is no significant relationship between BMI levels and the severity of pulmonary TB in patients aged 18-64 years at Gotong Royong Hospital Surabaya.

Abstract

Background: In the world of education, studying and learning is required. To keep up with technological advances, learning methods and media are needed that can help students learn. In this research, PHAGO is an interactive learning media which aims to help students understand pharmacology material better and to determine student attitudes and understanding. In this study, the field of urology in geriatrics was chosen because geriatrics is the flagship of FK UKWMS and urology is one of the fields of medicine where geriatric patients often experience disorders.Purpose: To study the influence of geriatric pharmacology digital interactive learning media in the field of urology on the understanding and attitudes of students at the Widya Mandala Faculty of Medicine, Surabaya class of 2020.Method: This research method is pre-experimental research with a One Group PrePost Design research design, namely a research design that provides pre- initial test and questionnaire before administering PHAGO and administering the post-test and final questionnaire after administering PHAGO. The sampling technique in this research is simple random sampling. Sampling was the result of random student pre-tests and post-tests by researchers as well as initial questionnaires and final questionnaires. Statistical analysis for this study used the Wilcoxon Test because the data was not distributed normally.Results: Samples were taken on 21 August 2023 and 11 September 2023 with a total sample of 50 students from the class of 2020 who had never used PHAGO before. The research results obtained are that PHAGO can help students understand pharmacology material and change students’ attitudes from being lazy to being more diligent and an increase in the average value from 25.20 to 55.60 also confirmed the effect of PHAGO on student understanding. Wilcoxon test also gives meaningful results (p = 0.000).Conclusion: It can be concluded that PHAGO has had a good influence on FK UKWMS students’ class of 2020.
